FRIDAY, APRIL 26, .1895.
•Clinton Is the best town In Huron County
Toronto Saturday Night has said
pretty hard things about some cf the
Liberals, but it never scored a Liberal
so badly as it did Dr. Montague in its
issue of last week.
While the Patrons did not succeed
in demolishing Government House,
they gave it a pretty good shaking,
-and we hope they will continue at it
until they have figuratively pulled it
down.
The Globe intimates that the friends
of Dr. Montague over-estimated his
danger in the bye -election, and spent
money in the most unblushing manner,
when he could have been elected with-
out anything like the lavish outlay
there was.
The tax payers will be interested in
knowing that the Government has is-
sued a special warrant for $25,000 for
the funeral of the late Sir John Thomp-
son, and however much they may have
admired him, they will consider the
•expenditure an extravagant one.
The Montreal Star suggests that the
business uncertainty should be relieved
by having the date of the general elec-
tions fixed now. All right, but why
not have thein fixed by law, so that no
government should juggle the time to
snit themselves.
Does it not seems little a bit of a farce
that the Premier of the Dominion can
be in the Senate, where he is neither
in touch or in sympathy with the peo-
ple. With all his faults Sir John Mac-
donald never took shelter in a dead
concern like the Senate,and Mackenzie
Bowell should get out of the Senate or
out of the Premiership.
Now that the session of the Local
House is over, and the people have a
little time to think, would it not he
well for the Godernment to abolish
some of the oddities that are neither
usefdl nor ornamental. For instance,
why compel the Speaker, when on
duty, to wear a gown and white
gloves, that make him look absurdly

Against Prohibition.
The report of the Royal Commission
on prohibition was laid before the
House on Wednesday. The report
declared against prohibition, on the
ground that it would injure commerci-
al and industrial interests, would cause
great loss of revenue, would interfere
with the progress of the country and
could not be enforced. The composi-
tion of the Commission made these
conclusions almost inevitable, and
while they must be accepted for the
time being, they are very far from
conclusive. They are not even logical,
but space will not allow of de-
tailed reference to them this week.
The statement of the Commissign• that
"Local Option has proven a failure and
License the only proper way to deal
with the system" is also open to ques-
tion. However, the country has paid
a fine sum fcr the opinion that it
receives. Rev. Dr. McLeod, a member
ot the Commission, differs with the re-
port, but his opinion has not 'yet been
brought clown.
Here are some figures for considera-
tion. Dominion net debt, March 31,
1894, $240,189,000; Dominion., net debt,
March 31, 1895, $245,150,000, Increase,
almost $8,000,000. Is it not about time
to call a halt?
Hon. J. C. Patterson having left
Ottawa, West Huron is consequently
unrepresented in the House. In the
next Parliament West Huron will be
represented by a resident member.
Mr David Mills made a good point
when, alluding to the hope of the
government to obtain preferential
trade with a number of colonies, he
said that "two months' preferential
trade with the United States would
amount to as much as twenty-four
with all of the colonies."
The members of the Government, in
their stumping tour of two months
ago, denied that any depression what-
ever existed in Canada. In the speech
from the throne they acknowledge that
"Canada has been passing through a
severe depression," but they clean that
it is not as bad here as elsewhere. If
they are telling the truth now, they
were not in the first instance.
A Toronto clergyman takes excep-
tion to the "everlasting punishment"
doctrine, as usually held by Christians.
His argument is the old stock objection
that such a state is inconsistent with
the character of a God of infinite love
and grace. He admits the existence of
a temporary hell, but emphatically de-
nies its eternal nature. The singular
thing about all these men who go out
of the beaten paths of orthodoxy, is
their willingness to adept literally the
scripture teaching as regards eternal
bliss, but doubt it as regards eternal
woe. If the first definition he correct,
it looks only reasonable that the second
may be also.
PERSONAL.—The following from the
Mount Pleasant (Mich.) Democrat re-
fers to a brother of Rev. T. West, the
respected pastor of St. Joseph's church,
of this town: The Democrats of Isabella
township have this spring nominated
Wm. West for supervisor, and no nomi-
nation for years has caused quite so
favorable comment. Mr West is one
of the best known mon of the township
and one of the best men. He has been
a pioneer, and is a man who has not an
enemy in the entire township. His
dealings with his fellowmen, extending
over a long term of years, have been
honorable and just. His word is a
bond more safe than a sealed document.
Broad and liberal in his views, he is a
man of more than ordinary keen judg-
ment. He will make a representative
of which the township will be proud.
News has been received from Livingstone,
Mont ana, of the finding of the decomposed
body in the Yellowstone River, of Alex.
Sanderson, a rancher of Griswold, Man,
It is believed Sanderson was robbed en
route to La Grange, Oregon. Deceased
came originally from Wroxeter, Ontario,
where his wife lives at present with two
children.
The celebrated Grand Trunk oonsp racy
case in Montreal, in which three conductors
were charged with conspiracy to defraud
the Grand Trunk Railway Company by
knocking down fares on the Montreal -Tor-
onto route, ended on Saturday in a disa-
greement of the jury, who stood eleven to
one for acquittal.
A peculiar accident happened hear Oak-
ville, on Tuesday night. George Collier,
a middle-aged man, who was oa his way
from Sault Ste. Marie to Buffalo, N. Y.,
deliberately walked off the train two miles
east of Oakville, and was instantly killed.
He was going to Buffalo to get a pension
cheque for $36 oashed.
On Monday afternoon ayoungman named
Harris Scott, about 21 years of age, com-
mitted suicide on the farm of his unole,
Charles Wilton, lot 12. 3rd concession,
Whitohuroh, hanging himeelf in the barn.
He was in a fit of despondency over some
fancied troubles. He had threatened had
threatened to take his life on several previ-
ous occasions.
One of the most depraved creatures who
ever existed in this country is now behind
the bars at Toledo, 0„ and the indignation
of his fellow -men may reach a pitch where
the law will be taken into their own hands.
He has pleaded guilty of crimes that would
send him to the penitentiary for a thous-
and years. His prime is that of ruining
his own daughters. His name is Sylvester
Pontine, and his standing in the communi-
ty where he lived was fairly good. His
eldest daughter, now married, bargee that
her father was the cause of er tnin, and
to her knowledge each of her )lin
g e sisters
had been similarly rained by him. What
punishment is adequate to a prime of this
nature?

Parliamentary Matters.
Notes From the Gallery.
The Couserl'ative members of the
House are already talking of a very
short session, with the prospects of an-
other one before the general election.
This would mean $2,000 a piece to them,
instead o1` $1,000.
The Liberals were never in better
fighting trim than they are to -day, and
the recent victories in Veroheres and
Antigonish make them not only hope-
ful but certain that they will be placed
in power whenever the people get an
opportunity of doing so.
The probable length of the session is
one of the principal subjects discussed
now. - While all agree that it is likely
to be a lively one, it is not generally
thought that it will be a very long one.
At any rate it will in all likelihood last
about three months, or until the middle
of July.
Hon. J. C. Patterson will take his
seat in the House for a few days and
then leave in search of health in a Gov-
ernment car for Californiis and the
South-western States. On his return
he will call at Winnipeg and remain
there for four years as Lieutenant -
Governor.
When Mr Costigan made a passing
reference to Mr Bourassa, the Liberal
member for St. John, Que., Monday,
there was loud applause on the Liberal
side. Mr Bourassa is the father of the
House, having represented the same
constituency in the parliament of Can-
ada for 41 years.
The Hamilton Spectator quotes the
closing sentences of the Premier's
speech in the Senate, and says:—" If
that means that should Manitoba re-
fuse to restore the Separate Schools
the Dominion Government will assume
the responsibility of forcing Manitoba
to re-establish those schools, we can
only say that when the time comes, if
it should come, the Government will
have to do the job without the assist-
ance of The Hamilton Spectator, and
w,e think, without the assistance of the
bulk of the Conservative party in On-
tario."
Nobody can find fault with the tone
of the debate on the address so far as
it has gone, The average of Parlia-
mentary courtesy and of good feeling
was high. Mr Laurier, it must be said,
approached very closely to the British
standard as a critic of Ministerial
policy. His manner was pleasant, his
language polished, and his thrusts
keen, though, of course, not fetal. In
the new leader of the House, Mr Foster,
he met a statesman much after his own
style. His tribute to the late Premier,
following in the wake of Mr Laurier's
happy and kindly references, was cer-
tainly a brilliant effort,—Mail,
The debate on the speech was finished
at Ottawa last Tuesday night, and the
address passed. Mr McCarthy made
an able presentation of the Manitoba
school case from the side of the Pro-
vince, and Hon. Mr Costigan in reply
expressed the hope that Manitoba
would herself settlthe difficulty and
not compel the Government to take
Nether steps. ' Mr McMillen made a
speech on financial matters, and Mr
McLean introduced a bill providing for
the protection of railway employees.
Hon. Mr Laurier questioned the Gov-
ernment regarding grants to the Hud-
son Bay Railway. The order reducing
the space for cattle • on board ship has
been rescinded.
The bill for the purpose of gerryman-
dering the Province of Quebec has been
printed. But, while strong pressure is
being brought to bear from the Quebec
district on the Government to have the
measure introduced and made law,
still there is strong opposition to this
being done on the part of many leading
Conservatives from other parts of the
Dominion. There is no doubt that the
party would benefitby the constituen-
cies in Quebec being gerrymandered,
but the majority of Conservatives be-
lieve that such an iniquity would do
more harm than good. The Govern-
ment is therefore halting between
these two opinions, and once they find
out which will benefit them -most po-
litically they will, without any regard
for the feelings of their opponents or
the rights ot the community, decide
accordingly.
The various moods of the House are
always interesting to an observer.—
When one of the younger members is
on the floor, the leaders on both sides
preserve an aspect of indulgent interest,
while the rank and file lean back
wearily in their chairs, converse in
subdued tones, or saunter out to the
caucus rooms. But when one of the
recognized masters of rhetoric and ar-
gument rises, there is a change. Let
Laurier or Foster, or one of the more
able of their followers take the floor,
and the vacant seats fill up as if by
magic, the buzz of conversation ceases,
and the words of the speaker are fol-
lowed with closest attention. Sir Rich-
atd Cartwright has always been recog-
nized as one of the most vehement and,
at the same time, sarcastic speakers in
the House. His condemnation of Gov-
ernment measures and plans is often so
emphatic as to provoke a little amuse-
ment even among his friends.
The Ottawa correspondent of the
Hamilton Times says:—Everybody is
talking of the poor figure the members
of the Government cut in the debate.
In the House Mr Foster, as leader, was
particularly weak. His excuses for
not calling parliament were extremely
silly, and the same may be said in re-
gard to his theory that when an officer
of the Government prepared a state-
ment for a Minister, the latter was
bound to accept it and give it to Parlia-
ment as accurate, no matter whether
it was correct or not. But for the few
eloquent and appropriate remarks the
Finance Minister made on the late Sir
John Thompson, his speech was the
worst he ever delivered in the House.
Poor and weak as Mr Foster was, he
was not half so bad as Sir Hibbert
Tupper. As a member of the Opposi-
tion said, it would be almost cruel to
take advantage of the Minister of Just-
ice. So keenly does he feel the position
which his recent resignation had now
placed, him in.
Deaiiite the fact that Mr Laurier was
not in the best of health, he made an
excellent speech. His allusions to the
troubles in the Chinet were particu-
larly good, as was also his strong de-
nunciations of the high protecitve sys-
tem, which was the root and cancer of
Canada's commercial woes. The grace
-
ful tribute which the leader of the Op-
position paid to the late Premier
brought a responsive echo from all
parte of the House.
Sir Richard Cartwright seems to be -
Come more forcible and brighter in de-
bate as he advances in years. No man
in public has stood the worry of polit,
cal life and the long and tedious sittings
of the House eo well as Sir Richard.
He was rich in sarcasm when dealing
with the Cabinet dissensions, and his
criticism of the financial situation was
unanswerable,

one of special interest and power.
Rev Dr. Gregg, (father of Mrs A.
Stewart) who for 23 years has been one
of the professors of Knox College, hav-

of age and a native of Huron county.
On Monday evening Rev J. Edge, of
Goderich, delivered an address in the
Ontario street church, on Dr. McIntyre
and his address, "The Model Horne,"
and it bristles with excellent points, -
valuable suggestions, quaint and amus-
ing illustrations. Mr Edge does not
pretend to equal Dr. McIntyre in man-
ner of delivery, but he nevertheless
made an effective address, which was
well delivered and fully appreciated.

An examination of the official returns
from Haldimand shows that the total vote
polled was 270 less than in the general elec-
tion in 1891, the figures being 3,714 and
3,444. The deorease ie probably due to the
attitude of the Liberals, many of whom did
not vote. In the recent election the new
ballot was used, and it was expected that
with it the number spoiled and rejected
would be reduced. This expectation has,
however, not been realized, for there has
been an inorease of two.
