The export of eggs le Britain hue been profit- able to Dundee, Flavelle & Co. of Lindsay, Ont., who have been engaged in the business the past two searons. SaidMr.Flavello to a World reporter. "Yes, we have foond the exporting pf eggs to Britain satisfactory in every respect. The secret of the businessis in proper packing. I am convinced that even were the American duty on eggs repealed we should still find the British market our most profit.. able one." Mr: Andrew Pattulo, editor of the Wo.datook Sent inel•Rev iefv, voiced the views of Conservative, as well as of the groat majority of hie party friends when he saidat Inner• . kip, iu reply to Prof. Smith and Mr. Meyers, that "he had perfect' faith in Canada and bolived it would be better for this country as well as for the United States if we pursued our own seperato careers, side by aide, to a glorious destiny in each case." Mr. Prttelo good nnturedly roasted Smith and Meyers, after removing their hides and exhibiting the ring- 's re tk-d c ti :les, to a h'ghly amused audience. One of the Most fearful crimes ever committed in Canada, was perpetrated last weak at a place called New Bliss, Leeds 0011013', Ontario. Au old man and his wife and dal,ghter were killed on their farm in broad daylight and the hou.,e burned and the bodies crem- ated. There is very strong evidence th.rta sou of the old couple and brother of the murdered girl is the murderer. lie had returned to the vicinity of the murder on the day of its commission, after having spent a year iu the Central prison for lar- ceny. The coroner's jury found him guilty of the murder and he has been committed for trial. Goldwin Smith at the Innerkip meeting said, "he had always up— held the honor and bust interest of England,, and he believed both would be strengthened by a union of Canada with the States." Cana - diens will not thank Mr. Smith for the equivocal compliment. \Vher'o- in has Canada ever dishonored England that nothing would so be come the honor of England ao much as for Canada to leave her company and join the roprohates to the south of us. If Canada is a dishonor and disgrace to England, and the States are her fit associates, this is equivalent to the Professor saying "arcades ambo." If some live man would take up the shipment of baled hay to Britain with the same spirit as animates our apple exporters there would seem to be looney in it for both the handler and the producers. Hay is not so perishable as apples or eggs which find their best market in England. Wo have a good crop this year. There is a poor crop in England rail prices are higher there than usual. Cattle and lumber freights have ,fallen off and steamship owners are in a mood to carry hay at more moderate rates than heretofore. We (night call the attention of apple king Cantolon, who pioneered the fruit export trade in this section, that there is• another world for him to conquer—in the hay trade. The indiscriminate carrying of pistols in Canada seems to be on the increase. Many are under Vhe impression that it is unlawful under the "Blake act" to carry a pistol. According to Hon. R. W. Scott, who appeared for the Crown at Cornwall assizes in the prosecution of one Slavin, who was convicted for the unprovoked murder of a constable, the law against carrying a pistol, hot concealed we presume, does not come into operation until nest July, having been passed by the present parliament. The shoot- ing of a constable in London last week is another instance of the evil of allowing pistols to be carried. l .rk T" ¥, ,tMy, 1k1, '., fpr $alk Ilirlk, Mau., is ettiti to be the coming • '11f inister ,of the Laurier, vrier, 'vine ;'Dewdney to be translated to the Lieut Governorship of Manitoba. Daly is an ex.Stratfordite, and though not as large a wan physical ly as Dewdney he is a much bigger elan in all that goes to make e Cabinet minister. Tho Grits are blueing the old Bong of persecution of M. C. Cam eron in the Ellen Lomas scandal. The "Tories" had nothing to do with originating the charges against M. C. Catneron. , Mr. Cameron's alleg, t•d offence was one against society, against the people, and if he had been as active in proseoutirg the author of the charges a year ago as he appeare to hu now justice would have been better served. There would have been es little difficulty in then proving that Gore was the author of the charges as there' is now. The village of Inner'kip, Oxford county, has been (lone proud and will be immortalized in the pvnthoon of fame even asMontgomery's tavern was immortalized in the "onpleasant• noes" of '37•'38. A few days ago a meeting was held at Innerkip, and, after a good deal of gagged apeeohffying by Goldwin Smith, guillotined Meyer of Dufferin and' others, it was resolved by a vote of .over third of tho two hundred present, "that this meeting protests against any interference with free- dom of speech in regard to the ques- tion of our national future now be fore the Canadian people." Two thirds of those present did not vote at all considering tho whole affair in the light of a circus. The fact that the speakers for free spesch 5;gc.l:e all they wanted and could be speaking until now, providing they paid hall rent and their langs held out, was pretty good proof that no one was moving either heaven or earth ;or Mr. Mowat to put a lock upon their wagging ,laws. Tho Empire is talking good, sound horde sense when, it says in regard to the Mauitoba-Sohool Law: "So far as Dominion Government is co,cerned it has no power at all over the proceeds of the school lands, except to see,that they are applied to the support of public schools." The highest court iii the realm has decided that the Mani- toba School Law is within Provin- cial rights and any attempt by the Ottawa Government or Parliament to override that decision or ignore those rights would be the assurnp tion of unconstitutional power. THE NEws•RECORD supported the con- tention that the Province of Que- bec had a perfect right, in accord- ance with powers reserved to the Province, to dispose of public lands and apply the proceeds for educa- tional purpoaos, even though the bulk of the proceeds went to Ro man Catholic educational inatitu• tions.The majority in that Pro- vince are Catholics and the major ity so willed. The Province of Manitoba has the same right in such matters as tho Province of Quebec has. The majority in Mani• toba are Protestants. The majority willed that the proceeds of the sales of public lands (school lands) of the Province -shall be devoted to poses ; the proceeds of similar public echool purposes. And equ- ity is one the side of Manitoba as woll as right. The proceeds of the sales of public domain in Quebec wont for denominational school pur- domain in Manitoba go fur public schools which are free for Jew or Gentile, Catholic or Protestant. Ecclesiastical interference mutat not be permitted to override civil legis- lation in Manitoba, where no ex- ceptional privileges are granted any church or denomination. The Dominion Government "cannot check Manitoba" in the exercise of hs nndoubtod provincial right's, and be sustained by the people at large. The Roman Catholic hierarchy will do well to keep their hands off Manitoba legislation. It exercises questionable power in Quebec and even in Ontorio civil legislation, but there is a limit beyond which public opinion will not allow it to go in civil mattere. That limit has been reached. Roman Catholics can avail therneolves of the public expenditure for school purposes in Manitoba as they can in any other Province. If they do not choose to do so and prefer to support de- nominational schools of their own, at their own expenee,this is a privi- lege they rightfully have and which no ono would wiah to see taken from them. 4flOVi'"��' 'To G, a *adtor of Iwo4i"fr?!1dt,lege:9rd; ;t13,,•�n,l,1t a etruv..el'etttlou With 'friend a eitort tittle .ego ha said ilk in outs 'weak clam care of appl had left this elation fel* the4Stat moaning by thle that that count was the hest market for Qanedi apples. lie referred to the Era his authority.

"this station." b "this neighborhood" which probab means the same thing. We ha gone to the trouble to aeoertaln th value and destination of apples, 1 export, shipped from this station In no one week this season we eleven oars of them sent to th States ; that number has probab been sent since the beginning of tb apple season from this station. '1'b values of apples shipped this seaso from Clinton are : 'lb Britain near $10,000 ; to the States 93,000 ; Germany $2,000; to France $625 The shipments to France and Ge many being dried or evaporated a pies. It will thus be seen that w have shipped three hundred per cen more apples to Britain than to th States, and future shipments wi bear a much greater disproportion i the same direction, the cheaper fa apples comprising the bulk of Amer can shipments, while the wint kinds which are yet to come forwar will go to Britain. - In this connec tien we may quote : "Fresh Cana dian apples to the value of $1.235.00 were "'sent to Great Britain in 1891 an increase of $825,000 in five year Our sales to alt countries, of gree and dried, were valued at 91,438,099.

On Sunday missionary sermons were preached iu the Methodist_ church to large congregations. On Monday evening a missionary meet• ing was held in the church when the congregation was addressed by several ministers. On Wednesday evening Professor Scott's concert was well patronized, both Industry and Temperance halls wore well filled .which must have realized the company a good figure. Ou Fair day constable Davies arrested a young man named Mc- Donald from Brussels for being drunk and disorderly and allotted hire a compartment in the coolerfor the night. He was brought before the J. P's. in the morning and dis— charged with a reprimand, which had very little effect as he was pretty well paralized before taking his de- parture for home. - On Sstnrday morning A. E. Gogegeon, better known as Joe. the baker, was brought before magistrates Hamilton, Kelly and Campbell in Industry hall to answer the charge of striking hotel keeper Kelly with a club early on the morning of the fair. Ttit3 p'rl'so'irer' had been confined in the cooler from the time he was arrested having been remanded from time to time.
