BIRMINGHAM ON TOP.
As wo predicted, the Goderich
annexation organ failed to accept the
challenge of Mr. Birmingham. Like
other journals and meu that aro die
satisfied with the land of their birth
and adoption, it in ado reckless miser
tions. Now and again these un
patriotic nod renegade iu habitants of a
free Canadian cceintry are broeght up
with a short turn. This was what hap
peued the Grit journal of Goderich a
fow weeks ago. Step by step that
anti Canadian journal changed its
front to a right about, until a hole in
mother earth was the only place of
safety. Aird now the hole has been
pulled in after the Huron apostle of
annexation. It is gait° in order now for
Mr, Birmiugham to cover up the grave
of the departed iu these words :—
Toronto, Canada, April 17th, 1893
3fa. D. MCGILLICUDDY, Editor Signa!,
Goderich, Ont.
SIS,—In your edition of the 6th inst.
a further reference appears regarding
myself and the offer that [ made you in
the matter of an investigation into your
false and malicious statements. In my
letterot March 25th, ult., [ submitted a
proposition to you that His Honor the
Judge of the County of Huron, the
Warden of the County of Huron and the
Mayor of the town of Godericb, be asked
to conduct an enquiry as to the truth or
falsity of your statements. I, fully ex-
pected you would have accepted this
offer, and that ere this, the time would
have been fixed for commencement of
the said enquiry. I take it that these
three gentlemen are perfectly capable
of conducting such an investigation, and
would do so honestly, conscientiously,
and with due regard to their position as
honorable men: I shall certainly des
cline to agree'to any other proposal.
Your statement that I am 'making
a desperate effort to keep my name be•
fore the people of HIuron," is also nits
trite. You were the aggreesor in this
matter. I have made my replies as
brief as possible, and had no desire to
find myself conducting any correspond•
ence with you. I am given to under-
stand ,that a respectable person may he
in charge of the Signal before long, and
therefore this letter will close my cor-
respondence with you. I am,
Yours sincerely,
ROBERT BIRMINGHAM.

CURRENT TOPICS.
Tho Ontario Legislature is being
urged to give a bonus of $2 a ton on
all pig iron manufactured in the pro-
vince. Besides levying a protective
eustome duty of $4 a ton on pig iron,
the Dominion Government grants a
bonne of $2 a ton nn all made in Can-
adian furnaces. Six dollars a ton re-
preeeuts a large advantage to the home
producer over his outside competitor.
The debate on the second reading of
the Irish Homo Rule Bill will likely last
all this week. The Bill has many
critical stages to pass through before it
can finally be made law.
Elgin Myers and S. 11. Clarke, tiro
annexation apostles, had a large meet—
ing in the opera house at Belleville
Thursday night, but the meeting was
loaded up the other way, Mr. V. B.
Falkiner, president of the \Vest Hest.
lugs Conservative Association, moved
a resolution, seconded by Mr. John
Taylor, repudiating the sentiments of
the speakers, and declaring "as Britons
we would live, and as Britons die."
The resolution passed almost un-
animously, "God Save the Queou" was
sung and Mr. Falkiner cheered.
Vandreuil Constituency was in the
throes of an election contest. The
electwe are nearly allFrench Canadians,
and their religious leanings may be
judged by the fact that out of a-tetel
population of 10,792, 10,261 are Cath•
olive. The Opposition candidate was
Mr.. Harwood, and where the religious
preponderance is eo excesiive,a race and
creed cry performed good cervico.
Hun. Mr. Laurier and several other'
members of the Opposition were
in the constituency in the interest of
their candidate and raised the cry
of the Manitoba school question, Mr.
Laurier urging that if he were head of
the government, ho would make a law
compelling the Manitoba Government
to allow the •rete1tion and establish-
ment of Separate schools for Roman
Catholics in that Prc vince. Those on
the ground said the el'dction would turn
on this, and consequently it is
no surprise that Mr.b Marwood was
elected, and the great Liberal party
received another supporter. The Liber-
al party of Outerio has to sleep with
very queer bed fellows.

charges any body of men with a grave
offence against society is generally
looked upon as having the necessary
proof to substantiate its charges,
else such charges would never

many years has had evidence
strong as holy writ as to the Triter un-

paper say it will produce evidence 1

THE BUDGET SPEECH.
Mr. Harcourt, 'Tuesday, made a very
long budget speech. Mi n who seek to
darken counsel with words without
knowledge are noted for their long
speeches. Men who have little to say that
is satisfactory generally try to confuse
matters by prolix,' explanations, and to
conceal facts beneath a cloud of rhetoric.
It was so with Mr. Harcourt 'Tuesday.
His story was a simple one, if it was not
satisfactory. IIe might have condensed
his budget speech into half a dozen
sentences. ITe might have said that the
provincial expenditure is steadily and
largely increasing, that the ordinary
revenue is decreasing, that new taxes
have been levied, that the surplus has
been equandered, that money has been
borrowed, that money received for tim-
ber and lands disappears into the gulf
as fast as it comes in, that the time is
rapidly approaching when all the salable
domain of the province will have been
disposed of; and nothing but direct
taxation ou a large scale will retnein for
the ordinary expenditure of the govern•
men1.
Mr.TTarcourt's desire was not to express
these facts, but to conceal them, or so
cloud them round with loose talk as to
dwarf their real proportions. 'There is
nothing new in thespeech,and there is no
need for len g,rh�ened discussion respect.
