During the past week there have been several cases recorded Of outrages upon females, in different parts of On- tario, none of them, fortunately, as heinous as the Listowel one, but nev- ertheless cases that call for the stern adtninistration of justice. In one 'of them the victim of a young man's lust was only five years of age. The well- being• of society demands that every possible safe -guard be raised in behalf of virtue, and that those guilty of forced immoralities be dealt with rig- orously. It would almost appear as if there w as a laxity in this direction that bodes no good. The legal penalty for outrages of this nature is hanging, but it is never enforced, and it is not un- likely that public sentiment is unfavor- able to its enforcement. Perhaps, if the lash were more vigorously applied, it would be a preventative; at any rate measures must be adopted that will mete out just punishment to the guilty and at the same time be a source of protection. Looseness or latitude in this direction is certainly not advisable or desirable. Theory is its Stronghold. Free trade is often right in theory when pro- tection is right in practice. There is more or tie 4 lruth'�,qq llta_kaunts q th_Q_4gierlpan, pro - .: -' T cttoniirtlf'wfiti dealer`s thatcduege jn efossers, -- collets, thinkers of all sorts and conditions are leaders in the cause of free trade. Men whose relationship to the activities of the world is merely observant are for free trade. Their ob- servations are met by the experience of fellow - countrymen, whose interests compel them to take an active hand in the material upbuilding of the state, and experiences furnish these men proofs that protection is right.—Toronto Tele- gram. The Telegra;n would not surely claim that the above is a sample of good, clear reasoning. If free trade is right in theory, practice cannot make it wrong. If it is right, it is right all the time; but it may not be expedient, which is a vastly different thing to being wrong. People make the mistake of assuming that circumstances may alter a princi- ple, when they only affect its opera- tions; as a principle it is still the same. If free trade, as an abstract principle, is right, no experience. whatever can "furnish men with proofs that protec- tion is right," because they are oppo- sites and cannot possibly be so. To be inexpedient or expedient are different things, and the Telegram should have Said s0. 'J• Is it Right? There is a practise prevalent in con- nection with many of the criminal cases tried before judges, that will lead to miscarriages of justice if notcheck- ed, and the sooner itis checked the better. We refer to the practise of some eminent lawyers, who, having got what evidence or information they can from witnesses, proceed to badger and embarrass them as much aspossible and are allowed to do so by the judge presiding. We do not for a moment offer any protest against lawyers us- ing all fair and legitimate means to arrive at the truth, but it is evident to all who either attend court or read the published proceedings of courts, that they go beyond what is at all neces- sary, and if judges do not stop it there will be a revulsion in the public mind that will not be desirable. It not in- frequently happens that women are called upon to give evidence, and be- cause they cannot minutely detail every circumstance that has taken place months before, although they ;may be perfectly honest and sincere in what they are saying, some ' sharp lawyer tries to make out that they are unreliable, and have even tried to smirch their character. This thing should not be tolerated any longer. It is no wonder that Witnesses occasion- ally get out of the way, sooner than be bullyragged and badgered as if they 'were the worst of Characters. The judges have the remedy in their bands and should 'apply it. We congratulate Lift T. Gl. Murdoe1 of Lucknow, en liis'elevation to the Presidency' of West Bruce Liberal As- •sociation, and hope, .ere: long, to be able to announce his promotion to a higher political honor. • ALAI like Mur dock are the kind of nubile men this country needs. Mr Dickenson; barrister, of Wing - ham, has accepted the Conservative nomination for East Huron for the Dominion, Ile has a hopeless task before him, for although -Dr. Macdon- ald is not strong physically, he is strong enough in the sympathies of the people to be re-elected by a good majority. Chattelle, having confessed the atrocious murder of Jessie Keith, will doubtless pay the penalty on the gal- lows. The further proceedings are' only a matter of legal formality, and no one would complain were they dis- pensed with. There should be no long delay and no opportunity should. he given for cheating justice. Punish- ment should be swift as well as sure. If an attempt is made to work the "temporary insanity" plea it will not be tolerated. MERCIER IS DEAD. Honore Mercier died et Montreal, on Tuesday. The end had been expected any- time daring the preceding twenty-four hours. It is a remarkable fact that a spiritualist there had foretold about ten days ago that the end wbald come on the thirtieth of October. Monday Mr Mercier was unconscious most of the time; For ten hours of the day he lay in a comatose con- dition. Mr Mercier in his prime would weighed close on to 185 pounds. His dead body is now a mereskeleton. iso muoh had it wasted away. Ile was in poor health for years before the symptoms of diabetes made themselves unmistakably evident. For more than two months he was in hos- pital at Montreal, but on Friday week last he was removed to his home. Mr Mercier uee•s, tamale. 440, ie,Cfommons,.tor, Ronville from 1872 to 1874. In 1879 he en- tered the Quebec Government as Solioitor- General in the Joly Government, to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Hon. P. Bachand. From 1887 to 1892 he was Premier of Quebec, and in •the latter year his Government was defeated by ars over- whelming majority. • A Very Brilliant Ending. Mr Laurier's :western tour came to a close last Thursday night in Winnipeg, where he was banquetted in royal manner by the Liberals of Winnipeg, at the Mani- toba Hotel. There were 400 guests present and the assembly included representatives of every class in the community, whose reception of the Liberal lead r was enthu- siastic in the extreme. Whe Mr Laurier rose to reply to + l the toast "Our Guest," there was seen a strange scene. Every- body stood up on their chairs, and waving handkerchiefs, cheered continuously for several minutes. x13 tarouna'e 011111E611. Mr Laurier commenced by thanking the Western people for the reception they had given him, and having paid a warm tribute to their energy and enterprise proceeded, to deal with the policy of the Governmeut. Protection had retarded the progress of Manitoba and robbed the people of the fruit of their toil, It had increased the cost of the necessaries of life but had not increased the price of the country's pro - duet in the sathe ratio. Canadians should be left free to bny and sell where they wish- ed to, whioh was the policy of the Liberal party. Then he passed on to the prospects of the party at the next eleotion and closed his brilliant speech as follows: "Whether victorious or whether defeat- ed," said the leader, "victorious I hope we will be, victorious I think we will be—vio- tory shall find me not elated, defeat not dejected, but ready for the fray, because we are right ; and so long au I have to sustain me the good.,will,, the 'rapport and affection, if I may say so, of the Liberals of Canada, the Liberals of Canada will always find me ready for the discharge of my duey, what- ever that duty may be." (Cheers.) Mr Laurier took leave of his friends in the west in these words: "I have only one word to say—farewell for the present; farewell, not in body, not farewell in mind or heart, because in my mind or heart so long as I am in the position I occupy, never shall I forget the peopleof the west, who have been so kind to me on the present trip." LAST MINUTE LOCALS.—We are in- formed that a few days since Mise Ethel Vantassel, of Toronto, and form- erly of Clinton, and Mr C. Duncan, (traveller for Ivey & Co.,) were mar- ried.

Dr, Rooms,; M.P., has been renominated by the West Middlesex Conservatives as their oendidate for the Commons. Premier Greenway is the only member of the Manitoba Legislature who has been a member of that body since 1879. Truly, this life is a fleeting show. Only 1.9 of the 26 members of the Con- pervative party voted in the convention vthieh selected Mr Matter as Opposition leader in, the Legislature. The Manitoba Government has sent a reply to the Ottawa school memorial, re- eiffirming Its position, and declaring that itpy attempt at interference would be re- stated - Tuesday, bTovember 30th, bas been ap- pointed as date for trial of petitions against ad Savage, the Conservative member of 'the T.ocal Legielatere for West Algoma. Notice has been filed with the returning offieera in East and West Hamilton that the protests againtt the return of Hon. J. M. Gibson and J. T. Middleton have been withdrawn by the petitioners. The Toronto Globe is responsible for the assertion that Hon. Mackenzie Bowell is the only member of the Dominion Govern- ment who, privately, believes in Protection. The others, it says, have all recognized the humbug. Hon. Mr Laurier and party arrived in Montreal from their Northwest trip en Monday. The hon. leader held a recep- tion, and was warmly greeted and con- gratulated by many friends. He paid a call on Mr Mercier, ex -Premier of Quebec, who was on his death bed. An amusing feature of the Newfound- land elections is the unseating of three Whitewayite candidates on their own pe- tition. The supply of ballots bad been ex- hapsted before all the votes were in, and fearing that the result would be against them, they protested the election. The count showed they bad a majority, and they are now metaphorically kinking them- selves for their precipitancy. - At the meeting of the 'Young Conserve- tiyes in Toronto, Monday, Dr. Ryerson, M. P.Y., said the next session of the Legislature promised to be one of the most interesting on record. He said he did not believe the Government would make any conceesious to the Patrons such as the latter demanded. Sir Oliver Mowat was on the verge of re- tirement, and would not, said Dr. Ryer• son, stultify himself in history by earning a reputation as a place hunter. An Ottawa special says:—It is not ini- possible that Sir John Thompson may in- dnce Sir Charles Tapper, High Commis- sioner to England, to return and take the leadership. It is well•known the Premier is mnoh discouraged at the outlook. Sir John has always aimed at being appointed to the Judicial Committee of the Imperial' Privy Council. He has not been created a Privy Connoillor and the other prize is al- most within his reach. He will grasp it if he can. The salary it £5,000 a year. The change would therefore be to the Premier's benefit, while Sir Charles Tapper, as Con- servative leader in the Dominion, it is felt could win. There are few more eloquent men on this continent than the Hon Mr Laurier. His position in this rei,l,ect as already establish, ed; but, if it were tr+t, the beautiful pessege in whioh he last ']'hnrs;lay night took have of his Western friends would of itself be sufficient to stamp him as one of the great- est orators of the day. Of the fifteen re- ..preaeatativesenoveserWing . in- the..Corr minri. for the territory west of the great lakes only one is a Liberal. Bat, at the banquet, given to Mr Laurier in Winnipeg, the chair- man predicted that three-fourths of the de. legation returned at the next election will be found supporting the Reform leader. Nor does the boset seem altogether un- reasonable. The election et Mr Martin about a year ago, and theireception tendered Mr Laurier during the tour just concluded are indications that a great change of pub- lic opinion has taken place in the West. -- Toronto News. E. T, Essery, the Conservative candidate in London, has been twice elected Chief Magistrate of London. He is a lawyer, and is a free and vigorous talker. For 20 years past he has been before the public as a candidate for various positions. Success smiled upon his publio affairs when he an- nounced his oympathy with the P. P. A. movement. In the last mayoralty., con- test he defeated Col. Gartshore, a Liberal member of the MoClary Manufacturing. Company by a majority of over 200. Thos 8. Hobbs, the Reform candidate, is a mem- ber of the Hobbs Hardware Co„ and while never taking a very aotive part in politics until quite recently, he hue always been known as a staunch Reformer. He was president of the Young Men's Liberal Club, and in the.reoent contest in London, when the leader of the Opposition secured a ma- jority under 200, the young organisation showed much strength. Mr Hobbs is known in London as "Tom" Hobbs and also as a jolly, popular young business man. NEWS NOTES. The costs of the Hartley murder trial at Brantford amount to over e5,000. Two thousand hogs have died of ckolera in the vicinity of Champagne, Ill. Dr. E.J.L. Duolos fell dead at Farnham, Quebec, on Tuesday, while extracting the tooth of a patient. J. Stanley Woodburn, a recent arrival from England, claims to have been robbed of 61,500, by some boon companions near Guelph. A special from Shanghai says the young Empress of China has committed snioide. She was rebnked by the Emperor, who slapped her . face, wherenpon she took poison. The Ottawa dairy buildings, situated four miles north of Winnipeg, were burned to the ground Friday night. Seventy- three head of cattle and two horses were cremated. The lose is $12,000. An effort is to be made by leading Mon- treal business men to have the Dominion Government change the date of Thanks- giving Day to the same day on which it is celebrated in the United States, the last Thursday in November. Almeda Chattelle, the Listowel murder- er, has a number of very reputable rela- tives in St. Hyacinthe. He wase sailor for 80 years. For nine months some nine years ago he was in Taunton, Mass. Insane Asylum, from whioh he was discharged as oared. By a peculiar coincidence two clergymen in London, on Sunday, preached from the same text:—"For David, after be bad ser- ved his own generation by the will of God, fell on sleep."—Acts, 13th chapter and 86th verse. The coincidence is further carried out by the fact that both were Methodist divines, both were named Smith—Rev. Dr. Smith and Rev. Charles Smith—and birth werean'flieersarydermons. • NEW$ NOTES Lieut -Governor Schultz, of Menitpbe, is again so ill as to be confined to his room. Rev, Wm.

A loud oheer at once buret from the audience, which was immediately sup- pressed. The judge ordered three of the offenders to the cells for forty-eight hours as a punishment. Two men entered the jewellery store of Brethauer & Co., in the heart of Chicago, threw the son of the proprietor into the vault, and looked him in, then • scooped about $6,000 worth of watches and other valuables into sacks and escaped. The senior member of the firm arrived in 'time to save his mon from suffocation. "You can't pump me." "Mum's ' the word." "I was fooling wish hint in the hall"—these were the admissions made by Frank Westwood to County Attorney Car- ry the day before he died from the effects of a bullet wound inflicted by some un- known hand, and with the death of the viotim of the murder, all expectation of ferreting oat the mystery was abandoned by the police, although they have been working on the case. The remark of the dying boy to Mr Curry that he had "fool- ed" with his slayer in the hall might point to the fact that he knew who his assailant way. lex. McGinnis, of Stratford, a widower with a family of two daughters, is in the toils. Some days ago he was charged at the Police Court with being drunk and dis- charged at the Police Court with being drunk and disorderly. He got off with a light fine and reprimand. It now trans- pires that while in the bestial condition re- ferred to he is alleged to have committed the crime of incest, the victim being a twelve -year-old daughter. The prisoner has been remanded for eight days. He hails from Ingersoll, and has been a resi- dent of the oity only a short time. The charge is preferred by Chiet McCarthy. Several weeks ago the members of the Mission Tabernacle, one of Rockford's big' Swedish churches, clubbed together and bought the'pastor, Rev. F. M. Johnson, a bioycle, on which he has become an ex- pert. Now Frank Johnson, a prominent member of the society and chairman of the church board, has created a sensation by tendering his resignation. He says the sight of the pastor of his church riding a bicycle is too mach for him, characterizing it as sinful enjoyment. Several members of the church take sides with the objector, but the bicycle enthusiasts are in the ma- jority and Rev, Mr Johnson will continue to ride his wheel. Detective Murray expresses his belief that Chattelle, the Listowel fiend, would oommit snioide as soon a8 he got a (Mance, end should be well watched. He based his belief upon the prisoner's actions. Mr Murray said further that Chattelle con- fessed all the horrible story of the crime to him in the Stratford goal, but it would not have done to make it known then. The details were too horrible for recital, and albs prisoner_etated to•-him-thab-„he-dtd' o"ob- know what possessed him, but he became animated by an uncontrollable fiendish frenzy for the time being, and could not resist. The Stavely Estate. To the Editor of the Clinton New Era. SIR,—It somewhat smacks of youth- ful hopefulness, to be counting our chickens before they are hatched, and possibly the committee appointed to look after this beautiful plum, that t hey are open mouthed ready to catch, whenever the Ontario Government lets it fall, will never have any plum at all to attend to. However, let us hope for the best, and in the event of our hav- ing $10,000 to spend, it would be a good thing to let the public express their ideas as to tate hest means of expending that amount of money. The notion of a hospital seems to have a good many stvpporters. But is a hospital an at- tractive sight at any time? To those who have 300 or 400acres of land in the vicinity to sell, this scheme possesses many alluring charms. My idea, how- ever, and which I claim a great deal can be said for, is that the money be expended in at least starting a system of water supply, and the purchase of a stone crushing machine. There is any quantity of valuable road making ma- terial right in our midst, all it needs is breaking cheaply to a certain size, and good, lasting roads will he the result. Who can suggest anything better? Yours, IMPROVEMENT. [Good as this suggestion undoubtedly IS, it could not be carried out, for the reason that the Government will only grant the money for some charitable or benevolent purpose.—ED.NEW ERA.] BORN MONTGOMERY.—In Blyth, on Oot. 19th, the wife of Mr J.

My mind has run out on the possibilities of like crimes being repeated. 1 have thought painfully op the risks that in- nocence is compelled to rim, and have asked myiyelf again and again, what can be done to guard against these thins. Girls must go to and fro in public; they cannot very well carry weapons for defence. \4 hat are they to do? If they could almost break the head of every man who insults them, they would win public approval, but they lack the courage to do this. Think as I may I fail to find a satis- factory safeguard other than the ex- ercise of caution, womanly discretion, and the absence of everything that tends to undue familiririty, and even this is no protection for little children. Wednesday night I was taken back to the, scenes of my boyhood, I saw little gaffers lugging away big gates and I recalled the time when I had done the same thing. And as I sat around my fireside while the ueigbbor's children pulled taffy, ducked for apples and amused themselves with other Halloweve sports, I sighed for the good old days of bygone years when I could enjoy myself just as they did. Bub how time rolls away; here I ata, suffering with the rheumatism, every joint aching, while the gray hairs compel me to believe I'ni getting to be an old man. I was talking with a friend about the low price of wheat. Said he, "now if the people in the old country— who are wealthy—would only pay five cents a bushel more for wheat than market, price, why we'd would get that much nacre and they'd never miss it." I asked him if he thought this could be done, and he assured me in the most solemn manner that he believed it possible, and I could not convince him that an article was worth just what it would bring in open competition in the markets of the world, and nothing more.
