PAPINEA U BECOMES PROTES TAN q' A great commotion ha in Quebec province by tui protestantistii, to presbyte Papineau, son of the gr 1837. M. Papineau is one of the most intelli- gent men in the province, and bas long held liberal religious views. Like hun-. dreds of thousands of the noble French Canadian race he has been held in the fold of romanism not by belief in or love of its dogmas and doctrines; but because he did not lvisli to be subjected to the childish and cowardly cry of "turn -coat." Every sensible man honors and re, spects one who honestly forsakes error and turns to the better course. But the old cries of prejudice are strong, and it requires brave men like Papiueau to take the lead. The immediate cause of his conversi was the taxation levied by the bishop his locality. for a new church. s been created e conversion to rianism of M. at leader of on of For many a year THE NEWS -RECORD like the IVarder, has extended the right hand of fellowship to all classes of FrenchsCanadians. Given half a chance and they will prove themselves brave and noble hearted fellows. Given in.. etruct.ion and information and they will speedily place themselves at• least, side by side with their fellow Canadians of other provinces. May many other leading citizens of Quebec rapidly follow the lead of Papin• eau. There are thousands of conversions yearly. May they be numbered by tens of thousands. THE PRICE OF WHEAT. The Spectator never'offers advice to farmers on the advisability of selling their grain et current prices or holding it in the hope of a rise. \Ve shall not tender such advice now, but we may be permitted to gather the expressions of those better able to form good opinions, a.nd to lay those views before the farm - ere for their guidance. President Van Horne, of the Can radian Pacific railway, advises the farm- ers 'of Manitoba and the Northwest to hold their grain. He says: There is nothing in the stocks of wheat in sight ; no, nor developments in the production of wheat , nothing hut the lack of money for handling wheat to justify anything like the excessively low prices, and almost every grain operator and miller and speculator within my acquaintance and beyond, so far as I can learn, believes that a great profit is to be made in buying wheat at present prices, and there will be a scramble for it as soon as money is to be had for the purpose. The prices cannot within reason go lower; the chances the other way- are infinite. Our farmers will risk practically nothing in holding their wheat, or as much of it as they can, and if they are not able to make money by it I will resign as a prophet and take an- other look at the rates. Clapp & Co., New York, in their weekly circular, say : In England, India, Australia and the United States the consensus of opinion seems to indicate wheat will likely ad• Vance at least 30 per cent long before Christmas. Estimates are common that Europe's demand upon us,before another harvest, will exceed our surplus. Many traders and investors have forgotten tbat abnormally low prices have pre. railed for several weeks, and that money matters the world over are being read'. justed, and that it is near the time of year for an advance ; that the improved condition of the money and wheat mark- ets leads us to expect better prices; that in September the markets generally ad.. yance; that winter wheat has been most- ly marketed ; that the spring wheat Drop will be ernall and nearly all of it require, 'ed in the milling sections of the north' west. We again, after a long delay and the great decline, favor' taking the long side of wheat. The writer has been in thegrain market since 1856, but never knew such low prices to prevail for so tong a time. These opinions are •submitted for what they are worth. Undoubtedly, 3iOWever, the present tendency of the tow market ie upward. •1 1.10L.01.r1 4{. l.0.41. ROADS. The Little Current (Manitoulin) Exposi&rr opt: r "Tee HuaoN Ni,weglsccaw man does not feel very grateful to the Mowat Government after bumping aver about 40 or 50 miles of Manitoulin Roads on a hat summer day in a stage waggon and proceeds to overhaul the govern- ment for what be terms almost criminal neglect of the said roads. His evidence, though, should not go for very muck as he only refers to a small part of theroad from Gore Bay to Silverwater, and not the island in general, also perhaps never having been on the Island before. " • • • • He speaks of the Ontario Government having with- drawn grants for roads on the Island since the Mowat adminis- tration was not supported by them in the last election. We ask could the Island reasonably expect anythiug different in the face of the above facts." 4' * The opinion expressed by TUE NEws- REcoRu is based on facts, We spoke only about the roads we personally travelled over, There are none so blind as those who refuse to see. The electors of Algoma lcuew of the extrava- gance and neglect on the part of the alowat Administration and elected A. F. Campbell. In return the illiberal Ontario Government withdraws grants form roads, and endeavors to whip the independent yoemanry into line to support thorn. Yes, we say, the elec- tors of the Island••should expect differ• ent treatment from a professing Christ- ian statesman who should honestly re- present the whole people of Ontario. The voice of the loyal electors on the Manitoulin cry aloud against the nig- gardly and almost criminal treatment. from Ontario's boasted Christian prem• ior. The more they cry for simple justice the more stones the Govern- ment hurl at them. The electors of older Ontario will surely arise in their might at the coming elections and hurl frotn office the Mowat Government. The little Premier should not bo al- lowed to longer whip the farmers of Algoma. And we will bo greatly mis- taken if the electdt•s of older Ontario do not fall in lino and assist their Al- goma brethren. CURRENT TOPICS. A new estimate of the British wheat crop for 1893 was published Friday. It puts the crop in round numbers at 54,000,000 bushels, w hich is slightly under the last estimate given out. The imports continue large, and tho receipts from Canada are expected t6 be greater, with a British consumption of 220,000.000 bushels frorn all sources. It is believe that there is a possibility of higher prices. 13 ad En Since he went to Ireland Edward lake has so persistently ignored Can- a as to attract the attention of the glish press, end the Pall Mall Gaz- ette mark differ wolfar of par thermal Ed ward not find t native col has felt called upon to re - rather severely upon Blake's in- ence to questions affecting the o of Canada.

A worn' an down in the eartern part of Michigan State who has reached the age of 105 years says she is certain that her longevity is due to the fact thatehe har never worn a corset. The promul. gation of that theory will not decrease the wearing of corsets. There are mighty few women who would live to be 105 years old, even if they could. Hon. Pater Mitohell, though a mem. ber of the Opposition, is not a blind one, and there is practical truth in his recent remark to a Boston interviewer, which we commend to Mr. Laurier's mature consideration: "Canadians have been led to draw away from the United States and look for markets in Europe. Canada was never more prosperous than it is to -day, though it is true that for some time after the passage of the iniquitous McKinley legislation Can• ada suffered severely," In answer to numerous petitions by grain dealers and others interested in the growing of wheat in Manitoba, the C. P. R. has issued a slightly reduced rate for the present year's crop'' The rate for this compared with last per 100 lbs is as follows : cror'93 CROP '92 Winniepg 17c 21c....

Prof. Bryce of Winnipeg. Man,,con- tributes to tholCanadian Magazine an important article on the Manitoba school question. The Professor ably combats the theory that public schools are antagonistic to religion, and points out that while they teach secular sub- jects. religion can be inculcated in the Sunday school, the church and the• home. Public schools were necessary in Manitoba to avert illiteracy and to unite the people as Canadians. The Professor says : "The only hope for the province was to fall back upon tho essential rights of the province and provide one public school for every lo- cality and have a vigorous effort made to rear up a homogeneous Canadian people. It has required nerve on the people to do this, but the first stops have been taken, and in the minds of Most there is a conviction that the battle has been won." Agriculture is going from bad to worse in England under Free Trade. The Farmers' Advocate says : "From a correspondent we havo the following information, which sho.vs the state of agriculture in the county of Essex. IIe states that at Colchester recently there was put up for sale by auction a very nice freehold farm of 500 acres, really good arable land, a first rate house and buildings and eight cottages and this was sold for £10 per acre, including ono of the houses. Sixteen years age the same lot was sold for 1'45 per acre. Another lot included 178 acres upon which £1,000 had been spent in drain- ing, and this sold for £1,650. Thir- teen acres of arable land sold for .£130, and twenty-two acres of good marsh pasture land at £400. There was actually sold about a fortnight ago a farm of 299 acres, with house and buildings, for £550; the tenant had been paying £250 a year rent." An exchange thinks that the law which imposes imprisonment for debt should be abolished. As the law stands such a contention has great force. Not that it is wrong under all circumstances toimprison a than for debt, but because the law is not equitable in its operation. The man who will contract a debt which he knows he cannot pay should be sent to gaol whether be be poor or rich. Morally ho is no better than a thief. He prac- tically steals money; and ho should be punished for doing so. Most debtors are objects of sympathy. Business men are often hopelessly in debt, for iustance, through errors of judgment; poor men through the necessities of their homes. The meanest class of debtora aro those who rob other's to feed their own extravagance and vanity. They are the dead -beats and robbers of society whom the law does not roach. But they aro really the dishonest debtors whom the law ought to reach. Unless the law of imprisonment for debt is made equitableall around, by all mean° let it be abolished. Business men will learn to trust only those who are tolerably certain to pay. If they do not trust at all it will be much better for aocie»y. • It is not often that we beth of the oldest inhabitant bearing the joys and sorrows of five spore and ten, but Mrs. Elizabeth Mo'.ATair, who luta just died near Huntingdon, Quebec, lived so long and enjoyed, it is -recorded, her 'parritoh and shorter catechism" to the last. In two months Mrs. McNair would have been one hundred and eleven years of age. Bern near Inver- ary, Scotland, she had lived for the past three quarters of a century at Clyde's Corners, near Huntingdon. As is often the case with well-preserved old age, a painful accident which she met with twelve yoare ago does not appear to have shortened her life, al- though it resulted in a fractured hip and confinement to bed ever since. There have been very few ages as great as this fine old woman's mentioned to the press of this or any other country. The saute ago was receutly recorded in Ireland. COrsSrrltll)tLOia Cured.
