Ot' course he might have gone a great deal farther and said that the auttexteiou of the Brit.ieh-C tn,uliett people ami cutlutry ro obi American Republic is not likely to ever be ageomplished. In a quarter of a century the rising generation, the present school boys and girls, will have a hand iu the fray. And the parents of the rising genera- tion, as a people, are not of the stamp that would willingly transfer such a noble and grated, heritage as we poseese. The history of 'our schools to -day teach 1088uu8 to our children that a quarter of• tt century will not obliter at or,er.aee from their rniuds. One would thick from the utter• Dances of Gold win Smith that the weathercock wits the head and front of ted spoke for the Reform party in Canada. He is of course a man of lbility. His pen runs on the wind current. And just now the "nib" is sailing along on the "wind" of a few diesatisfio3 office seekers and so celled Cenadiaue. But the rack and file of the Reform Party will not thauk him for placing in cold print in the New York Sun these treasonable worth: "Neither orth: "Neither of the two political parties has yet made continental unionism its plat form, though the LIBERAL PARTY I8 NOW As DISTINCTLY AMERICAN as the Tory party is anti-American and European." Mark the words. The Liberal Party ie now distinctly American, according to Goldwin Smith. The Liberal Party is distinctly anti•Europeau according to the treasop apostle. What say you, loyal Liberals ? The utterances are a base slander on the rank and file of the Reform Party and we are sure will be hurled back with a vengeance. The Conservative Party ie distinctly anti-American so far as annexation is concerned. If the anuexatiou bugbear is tuade an issue at the general elections many loyal Reformers will swell the ranks of the Canadian Conservative Party, and Annexationist Leaders— though they profess to be Reforruere— will be wiped elf the face of the politi- cal hemisphere. "THERE WAS A REASON FOR IT." The filth in the last ice to of the Goderich Signa? •,bb littered on Mayor Butter went a lo,tegeyvay to elect him. In the nineteenth-, century people ,desire eotnethiug 'Inure moral and ele- vating than ill fame reading matter and the people of Goderich have said 80.—CLINTON "NEwS•RECORD, Surely "omree Clinton contemporary dement know what he is talking about). The only' -vile :statements published in the Signal Were tibiitained in the nom ina- tion address'bf MteButler. It was only right that the people should know what he said, ' and the Signal, being a newspaper, published them. Three or four hundred persons heard Mr. But- ler make the statements and he did not express his contrition for having made them until the Signal had aroused the moral sense of the community by pub- lishing them. THE NEWS -RECORD pro- : fesses to be a moral paper, and the editor is known to the ,4ignal as an up- right young man. If a number of brothels existed in Clinton with the knowledge and consent of the mayor and constable, would THE NEWS-RE- coRD think it in thepublic interest to ex- pose the evil or to defend it?—Goderich We fancy THE NEWS -RECORD knew pretty well what it was talking about. If ouch a state of affairs actually existed in Clinton this journal would agitate for a'suppreesion oftheevil. But of enure° we have no evil of that deplorable nature here. Gentlemen of repute who at- tended the meeting have informed us that Mayor Butler did not use the language in the sense construed by the Signal. But this hae nothing to do with the remarks of THE NEWS-RECOR., The editorial ntteranees of the Signal are what THE NEWS -RECORD objected to. While THE NEwS•RECORD would agitate for the suppression of any ex- isting evil, we would nob ask or ex- pect the Chief Magistrate of Clinton or Goderich to formulate a charge or frequent brothels of that kind so that ,A "carie" might be made out.

We have coubdeuce enough iu Mayor Bet• ler to may that it the editor of the Signal or any other citizen of Godo• rich will formulate a charge and, eub- etautiete it by evidence that he will do hie duty and rid the county town of the alleged evil. He does not occupy the high position of Mayor without knowing hie duty. He has not been endot•eed by the people without the -People knowing he has previously tilled the position reneonably well. Hie duty and hie oath demand that he shall be impartial and carry out the law. Being the charge before him and eub8tautiate it by reliable evidence and that will 'settle the matter. But do not ask hint to frequent places or make chargee against people that the Signal and NEWS ilEOORD and all respectable people would spurn with n vengeance or a iod of Biblical fire. Butler is n gentleman who will du his duty without fear or favor. EDITORIAL NOTES. The blue ruin pessimists who have so nruoh to say about the pov- erty that prevails will not find touch coneolatiou iD the reports of the cheese end butter factories throughout West- ern Ontario. And the reports only show what the fanners are doing and making from butter and cheese alone. Fifteen to twenty thousand dollars in each small section are snug sums to be distributed among a few farmers es the revenue derived from one branch of mixed husbandry, Mr. John Kern ighsn, of Beumiller, givoo evidence of prosperity among farmers in other lines. Read what he says in another column. Mr. T. W. Russell, the Liberal Unionist M P. for Tyrone, Ireland, left last week for Boston. Speaking of the result 'of his mission he said that the Province of Quebec had proved a veritable poIitii*I gold mine for him. "Here," he said, "you have home rule, and tho Rotnan Catholic Church ste• prelim as a Christian institution and a political machine. This is what Ire- land would be if Mr. Gladetoue had hie way. I could say much, and in another place I shall say it, but this much may he said here : Oue Quebec is enough fur the nineteenth century. We shall not permit a second to be set up in Ireland. In other columns of THE NEws RE" CORD we give this week what the Governor-General said atthe Board al Trade annual bitngt:et in Toronto the other evening. His utterances are so sound and convincing on the past, pres- ent and future of the Dominion that every word ie tvorthy the careful perusal of . British Canadians. There are those of course that forgot of our greatness and our immense resources and those who ignore statistical facts. To those who like to see their country prosper, we would ask to read the ad• dreas. To those who may be prejudi ced from a purely prejudicial or po litical standpoint a perusal will do no harm. The Governor -Genet al's re• inarks are neither political nor partisan. His Excellency paid a visit to Goder- ich Monday and viewed the county town. Ho not only tnike about our country, but is personally viewing it and his wise words should carry deep weight with all classes of people. Godericl. TO THE ELECTORS OF GODERICH.
