EDITORIAL 1VOTES,
,Canada is the better half of this
continent and is treated by the
other half as the brutal husband
treats hie wife—his better half. And
Canada puts with it too often tie the
imposed upon wife does in many
epees.
The Americans have now a
duty of 75 (tents a ton on Canadian
bituminous oosl, and those interest-
ed want it made .higgher. Yet the
Canadian duty rauges horn only
2 cents a ton to 60 amts. Great ie
the Yankee idea of reciprocity.
A sword was recently unearthed
at Kingston, Ont., which is said to
hcve belonged t) Dainel Duluth
a noted French Canadian, who had
command of Fort Frontense,
Kiugston, where he died its 1710,
and after whom Duluth, the Zenith
city of the great unsalted seas, on
Lake Superior, is called.
The Hon. Peter Mitchell, ex -
Minister of •Marine and Fisheries
in the earlier years of the John A.
i~:acdonald Administration, and ex
leader of the afterwards third party
in the Roues of Commons, said at
Boston the other day :. "No man
of public note, from one and of
Canada to another, unlesa he ex•
petted political extinction, dare got
on a public platform and advocate
annexation." Truly said, and
said by one who is in a position to
know what he was saying.
The D,i:ninion authorities have
not only quarantined against traffic
from European iufected ports, lout
Minister of Customs Chaplean his
appointed all collectors of Customs
quarantine officers t0 inspect all
railway trains corning from New
York,which is cholera infested, and
to secure medic al aid. What be
comes of tho Chicago paper's stale•
manta "That the greatest danger of
all lies along the Canadian bond
era ". The existing state of things
proves that Canada, in carrying out
sanitary precautions as in the curry
ing out of every other,ex,,cetive act
for the public interest, is far and
away ahead of Uncle Sam.
The Woodstock 7S'eatinel-Review
has been figuring out how much
money is being spent by townships
on their roads, reckoning statute
labor at 75 cents a day,and forgravel.
The conclusion it cornes.to is that
it coats an average township $5.000
for work that would be much bet.
ter done for one-half the money was
the statute assessment pard •
-
Inoney at 75 cents a day and the
road work done by contract. There
appears to he mush truth in this as
farmers themselves will acknow-
ledge. But we fear they will hard•
ly forego the pleasure of gravel pit
and turnpike yarns to even have
better roads for half rho cost of
poorer ones.
That eympithy for criminal.:
often outweighs regard for their
oaths with some juries is in this
country not so common as across
the lines, But a notorious case
occurod at Brampton, Ont., last
week when the evidence clearly
proved one Lundy guilty of the
deliberate and premeditated mur-
der of his wife. There was not an
extenuating reason offered. Yet
the jury brought him �" n'ilty of
maestaughtor. Judg
very properly rebuked
he would have been justified in .0
fusing to accept their verdict. It
ie strange how jurors who, take an
to render a verdict iu accord-
ance wit the evidence, will ignore
it altoget r. "•,y have no more
right to exo : ' to a man whom the
evidence proves guilty than to find
n man guilty whom they believe to
be so though proof to that effect ie
wanting.
Whenever the contingency shall
arise that will neeessitate asuccessor
to Premier Abbott,the Conservatives
will have no dearth of material to
choose from. In fact there ie
almost an embarrassment of talented
leaders in the Conservative
party. Probably never since
Confederation has there bee n
so many able statesman on the side
of any party from which to choose.
The old war horse Sir Chas. Tupper
is doing so good work in his present
position that we would not like
to see him distuibod. IIe can
probably do. hotter work for the
grandest idea that has ever entered
the mind of the British public., or
any other people—Imperial Federa•
tion —where he is than as Premier.

Grosse Lela, Quebec, in connection.
with the quarantine against cholera
is now often mentioned. The
ridiculotteness of pronouncing the
name to ape the French pronunoia
tion is quite apparent . when one
hears it !ailed "Grow Eel." Eng•
liah prouunoiatioa should be good
enough for English speaking peo-
ple. •
The silliness of the American
who demanded a force of 50,000
men to • uard the line between
Canada ar d the United States to
prevent th ingress of cholera from
this country is exposed by the
acknowledgement by the New York
authoritiea of the death by cholera
of a number of persons in that cit).]
who arrived through that port,while
we have not a single case reported
in Canada.
The latest compliment to Canada
by the Auietaican pr es is, "that
half frozen colonial dependency."
The fact is that Canada is neither
half -frozen nor half•roasted,and has
a greater area blessed with a tappet.,
ate climate, than the smaller "half"
of the continent to the south of us.
And Canada is neither a colonial
nor yet a Yankee dependency, but
the greatest and freest : nation on
this continent and an integral pari
of the greatest and freest empire in
the world.
N. Clark Wallace and Dr.
Montague are spoken of as possible
cabinet ministers whenever a recon•
atruction shalt be considered de
eirable. Mr. Wallace has nobly
won his spurs by length of service
and ability displayed in Parliament,
while Dr. Montague is certainly a
corning Iran, sooner or later.
Should his life be spared he will
certainly "get thar." And he
didn't look as though he was in
imminent danger of ehuflling off
this mortal coil the last time we
saw him, which is not very many
moons since,
At medical examinations in
Toronto last week a student named
Kransman, wile failed in chern'stry
at the primary, got another student
named t'o' write bis paper for him,
and also to sign his name to the roll.
Dr. Pyne, the presiding examiner,
detected the fraud, and both stu-
dents will likely be prosecuted for
fraud. It is not likely such men
would make honorable physicians
when on the threshold of entrance
to a profession to which human lives
are entrusted.they engage in such
trickery.
Talking of the attempt to ostracise
Sir John Thompson from the
I'reniiership in case of the resigna-
tion of Hon. Mr. Abbott, it may be
remarked that Ontario had a Catholic
premier iu the person of John
S8ndBeld Macdonald who refused
concessions to his co -religionists
that Sir Oliver Mowat, that
evidence of Protestantism, grant-
ed. Then we had Lieut -
Governor Crawford, a Catholic,
but we don't remember any case in
which he allowed his religious con-
victions to interfere with hie duty
to the Prmince or the Crown.
And he, Ii1► Sir John Thompson;
was a convert from Protee.tantisin,
and, of wo mistake not,, had been an
Orangeman. A loyal man will be
a loyal man under all conditions,
lot his belief in non•easentiale per-
taining to the form in ,vhich he
shall worship his Creator be what
it may. •
The recent demise of severs]
Csnadians who had been engaged
in farming and who left estates
worth over half a million dollars
disproved the contentiou that farm-
ing does not pay. The late John
M. Wileon•of East Zorra and Mr.
James Trow of Perth are easf3s that
come to mine. These gentlemen
made fanning their chief business
during the greater portion of their
lives. And to go no further from
home than Goderioh township we
might refer to the late Mr. Middle-
ton and the late Mr. Jenkins as
farmers who loft estates valued
away up in the tens of thousands.
Intelligence, industry and thrift at
farming in Canada has been the
medium through which more com-
parative fortunes have been acquired
than in other calling, in proportion
to numbers, to say nothing of the
vastly greater proportionate number
who have raised large families and
started them in life with a reason•
ably fair portion of this world's
goods while reserving to themselves
a modeet competency on which
they can spend the declining days
of their years in comfort. But
everyone inCanada, nor elswhere, is
not equally successful at farming or
at any other occupation. • -

'1'haro rya8 a porlarge attendance
at .$t. awl's• Church, Olintou, Nat
Sunday evening. The Rev, Rural
Dean Craig preached hie last :or
rather farewell eerrnon. And it
was an ordeal the rev, gentlemen
found wry hard to page through
without breaking down. We need
not say here that the whole congre-
gation regrets his departure, for that
is a well known fast„ FIs will be
missed and �t ug remembered by all
classes and religious den"urinations
of our people. The sermon was
based on 1 Cor., 1V, 17, particularly
the following words :
"My ways which be in Christ Jesus as
I teach everywhere and in ovary church."
After an explanation of the mean-
ing of the -word "ways," viz: -that it
meant Doctrine and Life, it was
pointed out that St. Paul preached
an Historic Gospel, that he was
always anxious about the edification
of people, and that he lived bis
preaching. In all these points he
was a model tor the'Chr'istian minis-
ter of today. Speaking personally,
Mr. Craig referred particularly to some
"ways," Pastoral resiting and Attend•
anoe at week -day services and closed
his last eerrnon in these words : -
And lastly, I hope my ways
which . be in Christ Jesus will be in
your remembrance, to make you
strive to be more earnest Christians,
to make you more enthusiastic
churchmen and churchwomen. May
I hear always of your continuing
steadfast in the faith, loyal at every
tura to your Church and standing
shoulder to shoulder in good works,
for the glory of God and the honour
of Jesus Christ. I have not any hesi-
tation in acknowledging that many
things might have been clone better.
I am ready to confess that I have
not come up to all the ideals of all
of you. I have not come up to my
own. To err and to come short is
human. But I take this comfort :
there is forgiveness for mistakes,
blunders and sins, and there is
nothing of earnest striving lost. The
poet,Wadsworth sings :
'I see what was and is d will
Still ;Olden the stream and shall forever glide,
Tree Form remains -the Function never dies
While we the bravo, the mighty and the wise,
We men who in err youth doted
The elements. moat vanish; -be at so.
Enough it something; from our hands have power
To live and act and serve the future hour,
And if as to the anent tomb we go
Through love, through hope and. faith's trans-
cendent dower,
We feel we are greater than wo know • -"`
` ` 0 something front our hands have power
To live and act and serve the future hour."
There is no failure where there bas
been lion:ststriving, And in taking
leave of you where I met you—in
this house of God—I would ask you
to join your prayers with my own
that the Good Lord would pardon alt
that has been amiss, and that He
would bless,accept and own for Ilim-
self all the good work done for you
and for Him, to whom be all the
glory through Christ Jesus.
At the morning service -the text
was taken from Galations V, 16:
"Walk in the Spirit and ye shall not
fulfil the lust of the flesh." 'there
was a large attendance and the ser-
mon was thoughtful, instructive and
eloquent.
