Not Church -Controlled
The elections prove unmistakeably
that the people of Quebec are not under
control of the hierarchy. People in the
western provinces have been apt to
suppose they were, a -Id that the in-
iluencegof the church was strong enough
to cause it to sway in one direction,
but a tnajority of 34 supporters for Mr
Laurier, from that Province, tells a
different story.
Protestant Canada can hold out
its hand to -day to Roman Catho-
lic Canada, and, by joint action,
in the halls of legislation make it man-
ifest to all that the interests of no par-
ticular church are to be subserved in
Parliament, when those interests clash
with the laws of the country or ravish
a principle to which the people are
committed.
•
Possibly Quebec may, in the near fu-
ture, regret the stand taken, when put
to a crucial test. But no death -bed re-
pentance will be tolerated by the rest
of the country. The issue having
been made, the idea of separation of
Church and State must prevail.
Happy will the country be if what
Laurier advocated in the exposition of
his own attitude as regards religion
and politics, becomes the spirit of
French Canada, and, in fact, of all Ca-
nada.
The Unjust Voters' List
John Mellor, of Montreal, writing to
the Star, complains that although he
has been a resident there for over a
year, his name is not on the Voter's
List, and at the recent election he had
not the right of a free citizen to cast his
ballot. He is all at sea as to the cause.
He thinks the fault lay with the city
corporation, which "had not the neces-
sary funds for the revision and prepar-
ation of voters lists." Let us inform
you, Mr Mellor, that your case is that
of thousands in the Dominion, and that
the injustice must be laid at the door
of the Conservative Government of Ca-
nada and their followers, who failed to
cry out against the iniquity. You felt
the cruelty of being left off after one
year's residence. What do you think
of the case of hundreds of Reformers
in this Province whose names were
omitted, although they had actually
voted in elections for ten, twenty, or
thirty years? Do you not think it was
high time for Canada to turn out such
government?
The New Government's Polley.
The Toronto World says Mr Laur-
• ier's pclicy, as outlined by the Globe,
will include:
(1) A new franchise act. (2) A new
errymandering of the constituencies.
) Retrenchmeut in the public expend-
ture. (4) Tariff reform. This latter
Will not be on the basis of free trade,
bub half way between free trade, as
they have it in England, and Mclein-
leyiem, as it exists in the United
States. The Liberal tariff policy is to
be cast on a moderate protection basis.
The foregoing are doubtless the
leading planks ia the new platfur in,
and, if carried out on a fair basis, will
be all right. The first three are planks
that are absolutely necessary, not in
the interest of the Liberal party, but
in the interest of the whole country '
The fourth should and will include
"development of Canada's resources,"
not particularly any one feature, but
all, and this will he accomplished un-
der the agency of tariff reform. Put
the tariff on a more liberal basis, and
there will be a chance to develop our
resources, such as has not yet existed.
e In Addition to the foregoing planks
are a number of others that are more
matters of legislation than policy.
Let's abolish the Senate.
What matters it whether Laurier
gets bis majority in Quebec, or On-
tario ? It's all a part of the Dominion.
If Mr Laurier wants a good private
Secretary, and is willing to pay a fair
salary, an ad in the NEw ERA might
get him one.
It is said Sir Charles Tupper will not
resign Until after the last ,recount has
taken plate whieh will be,,an the 7th.
He Can held °fate , it he t ehes, until
theparty ie defeated In the House on
tbth.
What Tupper Says.
Interviewed after the defeat of his
gc.vernment, this is what Sir Charles
Tupper said: -
"So far as I am personally concern-
ed,I gladly accept the verdict which re-
lieves me of the great responsibilities
devolving on the leader of a govern-
ment. When I came to Canada last
winter I found the Conservative party
utterly demoralized, and was reluc-
tantly compelled to consent to become
its leader, as the only hope of avoiding
defeat. The fatal mistake had been
made of refusing to dissolve immedi-
ately after the adoption of the Remed-
ial order and of calling a session of
Parliament, whose life terminated on
a specific day, to deal with the Reme-
dial Bill, thus offering the greatest
possible inducement to obstruction.
Down to the last moment I confi-
dently relied upon the accuracy of Mr
Augers' opinion that Quebec would
give the government a majority of 20.
he Conservative party will now do its
duty as a loyal and constitutional op-
position. The same policy that it has
maintained as a government, it will
continue to maintain while in opposi-
tion.
Deaths at the House of Refuge
(Intended tor last week.)
In the Egmondville notes of the Sea -
forth Expositor, occurs the following:
"What's wrong with our county House of
Refuge? Another death was announced last
week. At this rate there will soon bo no in-
mates for that interesting establishment. It
used to be that county and township wards
wore said to have nine liven, but our people
have hit uron a pan of changing all this with
a vengeance. No wonder some of the inmates
run away. Lite is sweet, even to them."
We are surprised that so careful a
paper as the Expositor should allow
this to appear in its columns, for it is
exceedingly unkind to Mr and Mrs
French, as well as a reflection upon
the Inspector and Medical Superinten-
dent. The paragraph means, if it
means anything, that the inmates die
through negligence or improper atten-
tion. No matter how satisfactorily the
insinuation may be answered, it is dif-
ficult to catch up with it, and a little
forethought would have shown that
its publication could do no good, but
must result in uncalled-for injury to
personal feelings. In the same issue
of the Expositor appears the following:
"Mr and Mrs Jas. McMichael, of Goderich
St. west, paid a visit to the House of Refuge,
at Clinton, last Monday, and expressed them-
se'ves highly delighted et the cleanliness, order
and general comfort displayed at that in-
stitution."
And from the Grand Jury report the
Expositor quotes as follows: -
"The jury visited the House of Refuge and
found everything satisfactory, the house well
kept and the work done entirely by the in-
mates of the house who are able to work."
These, to a certain extent contradict
the first paragraph. Everything in
the House being in first-class order, it
naturally follows that . the comfort of
the inmates is the first consideration.
Everybody who has visited the In-
stitution express their pleasure at the
attention paid to the inmates, and it is
admitted by all who know the cir-
cumstances that the sick and enfeebled
inmates receive the most careful and
continued attention from all concern-
ed, including the Medical Superinten-
dent and others. In fact the kindness
of Mrs French particularly has been
the frequent subject of comment here.
The writer of the above paragraph
overlooks the fact that many of the
inmates are barely living when they
reach the House, and that 15 deaths
per annum is the average in the Pro-
vincial Houses of Refuge. As a mat-
ter of fact it might be stated that one
inmate has gamed over 100 pounds
since coming to the house.
We think the Expositor owes an
apology to all the parties concerned,
for circulating the above paragraph.
The Liberals lost several good gener-
als in the fight -but that is the result
of every battle.
Mr Laurier finds no trouble in get-
ting material for his new cabinet, but
he does experience difficulty in select-
ing from so many able and efficient
supporters.
Hen. Mr. Hardy will make aworthy
successor to Mr Mowat, as Premier. -
He has had ample experience, is an ex-
cellent administrator, an astute politi-
cian, and a m'hn in whose hands the
affairs of the Province will be carefully
managed.
We do not believe that civil servants
who are faithfully attending to the du-
ties for which they are appointed,
should be disturbed by any change of
government, but wherever .nen in pub-
lic offices show themselves to be active
partisans in the interest of the general
government, we would make every one
of them walk out,
The Globe intimates that men who
tamper with ballot boxes, or are guilty
of interfering in other ways with a free
expression of the will of the electorate,
may spend some time in jail, and their
sentences will not be commuted on the
ground of "ill health." That's right.
There's been altogether too many acts
of an irregular nature which look as if
they were intentional, and if the guilt y
ones are made to suffer, it will be a sal-
utary lesson.
The Toronto World, Conservative, in
an article headed "Taking stock of the
Situation," sums up the causes of the
government's defeat, and points out as
clearly as any Liberal paper ever did,
that :.he rascality of its own party and
had management from beginning to
end, were reasons for its overthrow.-
TheWorld intimates that the men guil-
ty of crookedness should have been
fired long ago.
The Rev. Father Coffey, the well-
known Canadian journalist, in the
course of an interview attributes Mr.
Laurier's victory to the confidence peo-
ple have in his honesty. Mr Coffey be-
lieves that hadSir Charles Tupper not
come out from England at the time he
did, theConaervatives would have re-
ceived such an overwhelming defeat
that it would take a quarter of a cen-
tury to recover. Sir Oliver Motdat, he
thinks, Will be a tower of strength to
Mr Laurier in forming a new adminis-
tration.

Huron is the only county in Canada
that sends three Reform members to
Commons and three to the Legislature.
It is stated in Winnipeg Liberal cir-
cles that the protest against Hugh
John Macdonald's electiou will certain-
ly be gone on with.
Mr Beattie has 118 majority over Mr
Hyman, at London, yet. there were 35
spoiled and 296 rejected ballots. A re-
count has been asked for.
The official returns in South Brant,
give Robert Henry who heat, "Billy
Patterson," a majority of 91. There
were 156 spoiled ballot papers.
Conservatives in Winnipeg claim
they have evidence which will disqual-
fy Mr Martain from running again,
and they say they will use this evid-
ence if "Fighting Joe" enters a protest
against Hugh John's election.
Michael O'Rourke, Windsor, attem-
pted to commit suicide Thursday night
He is a red-hot Conservative. and had
bet almost everythinghe had in the
world on the result of the election, and
when he lost, his despair was so great
that he wanted to die.
The Liberals of the district of Quebec
are so incensed over the interference
of the clergy on behalf of Sir Charles
Tupper's candidates, that they have
decided to send a deputation to Rome
witha petition to the Popo, praying
that measures be taken to put an end
to the scandals and injury to religion
caused by the attempt of the hierarchy
and priesthood to intimidate the Cat-
holic electorate.
Mr Hutchins has been elected for
North Middlesex by 8; it was 1 in 1891.
A recount has' been demanded by the
friends of Mr Ratz, and will take place
on Friday The number of rejected
ballots -22.1 -is something unprece-
dented. Of these over 100 were mark-
ed for Mr Ratz inside the space alloted
for his name, and only 40 were NO
marked for Mr Hutchins. The great
majority of rejected ballots are mark-
ed for Mr Ratz in one way or another.
Cumberland, in Nova Scotia, sends
probably the youngest member of the
new Dominion house, Mr Logan having
just passed his twenty-seventh birth-
day. He enters political life under
the most favorable circumstances,
having wrenched this great county
from his opponent after 41 years of
Tupperism, notwithstanding the most
corrupt influences used against him.
The Conservative majority has always
been very large, Mr Dickey having
been returned as a private member in
1891 by 840 and in 1892 by 920 of a ma-
jority.
It may not be out of place at the pre-
sent moment to recall the fact that when
Sir John Macdonld came into power in
1878 he appointed a Cummission to in-
quire into the acts of the Mackenzie ad-
ministration. The thing was unpre-
cedented, but it establised a precedent.
Contrary to Sir John's hopes and ex-
pectations that commission vindicated
the Mackenzie Government, and
its report was conveniently shelved.
Granting, however, that such inquiry
was necessary in 1878, how much more
is an inquiry necessary nowt The
Liberals in and out of parliament for
years heve, with good reason, charged
the government which is now passing
away with acts of flagrant dishonesty
and corruption. Let them now take a
leaf from he book of Sir John Mac-
donald and establish a searching in-
vestigation into all those transactions
which they have so loudly denounced,
and show the people of the country
what truth was in their charges.

Goderich township, preached in Willis
Church last Sunday morning.

members are requested to attend.
The people of Rattenbury St. Meth.
Church contemplate the purchase of a
parsonage, and the following Commit-
tee have the matter in hand, and will
shortly report to the congregation:
-Messrs Doherty, Lough, Holmes. W.
Harland, Stevens, Cooper and Man-
ning.
The Hensall Observer says: -Rev.
and MrsSwann bade farewell to Hensall
frieude and started for Dungannon,
their new field of labor. Mr Swann is a
good all-round minister and every cir-
cuit prospers that has the fortune to
get him. Mrs Swann ably seconds his
effor is in every good work.
Rev R. Millyard assumed the pas-
torate of Rattenbury St. Methodist
Church, on Sunday last, and was greet-
ed by good congregations both morn-
ing and evening. All who heard him
were well pleased with hire, and Hat-
tenbury St. is being congratulated on
securing so able a successor to Mr
Holmes,
Rev, A. H. Renton, the well-known
evangelist, who expected to spend a
short time last week with friends in
Clinton and Seaforth, was unexpected-
ly called to Kalamazoo, to fill the pul-

absence of the regular pastor in the

A Kippen correspondent says: -Rev.
Mr Walker preached his farewell ser-

Since the Rev. gentleman has been in
our midst he has won, by his kind
and affable manner, many friends.

we heartily wish him success in his new
field of labor. We would also extend
a cordial invitation to Rev. Mr Wad-
dell.
Rev. J. S. Henderson, of Hensall,
and wife, were in town on Tuesday.
Mr Henderson expects to leave on a
holiday trip in August. He is one of
the most able and zealous Presbyter-
ians in the west, a man of broad and
liberal thought, with no narrowness or
bigotry in his coreposition, and the
fact that he always on cordial relations
with his fellow -ministers of other de-
nominations, is evidence of this.
There was a large attendance at the
social last Friday evening, on the
grounds of Mayor Holmes, the evening
being perfect. Three arc lamps shed
their light under the foliage of the
trees, and waiters were kept busy sup-
plying refreshments, while the band
gave life and jest to the occasion. A
couple of patent swings (for which Mr
Thomas Cook is agent, and who had
kindly loaned them for the occasion)
were also sources of pleasure to a large
number.
The Rev Mr Buggin, pastor of the
Meth .dist church, Wallareburg, arriv-

There was a strong protest to Confer-

last Monday evening was not up to the
average, we received a free-will offer-
ing of about $12, for current expenses
of the league. Come one and all, -

The following from the Leamington
Post, relates to a well-known Huron-
lon:-We are pleased to learn that our
esteemed friend Rev. E. Medd, Ruthven
was so eminently successful in passing
his examination at Otterbeie, Univer-
sity. He is now entitled to the degree
Ph D. or Dr. of Philosophy. The Uni-
versity was founded in 1847 and is own-
ed and controlled by the United Bre-
tbern in Christ. It is located at West-
erville, Ohio, it beautiful suburb of Col-
umbus, the State Capital, and is named
after Philip William Otterbein the
founder of the U. B. church. In courses
of study and in faculty this University
is Standard. The instruction is thor-
ough, and the moral and Christian at-
mosphere is unsurpassed. The aim of
the institution is to secure to both sexes
a high grade of scholarship. To en-
courage its graduates and others who
wish to pursue study beyond the range
of a college course, it has provided me-
thods of systematic work to be follow-
ed under the special direction of the
faculty in which Froflciency is tested
by thorough examinations.
Lord Aberdeen lost no time, as
soon as it became known that Hon.
Mr. Laurier had carried the country,
in recommending the Liberal leader to
Her Majesty for knighthood; it is the
impress on in viceregal circles that
when the new Canadian Prime Minister
takes his place at the speaker's right
in the House of Commons he will do
so under no other title than that of
Sir Wilfrid Laurier.
