The Franchise
An interview with Sir Wilfrid Laur-
er is printed, wherein he declares that
ire blunder perpetrated in the United
fates was a too wholesale application
!4:if universal suffrage, which should not
lie mere birthright, but should be won
Ili an effort, however slight- We he-
4ieve he is right in this respect. One
Otrinot look at an election in the United
otastes without being convinced that
:.universal suffrage, with no property
';qualification, is a mistake It appears
to us that the hasis of the francnise in
4 is country,is about as low as it is
''Safe to put i. , The danger In lowering
tthe franchise is that those who have
r 10 property interest in a country can
:Wu1lify the votes of those who have.
here is one point, however, that we
':'xeould concede in this country,and that
':'is the extension of the p: rliamentary
*arichise to worsen, in the same way
tis they now enjoy the municipal fran-
;Chiae. If widows and spinsters are
qualified to vote for municipal elec-
Vona, --we-see noood objections to
'their being entitle to vote for parlia-
znentary elections. But we would con -
line its extension to these two classes,
of course on the basis of property
'qualification.
The Examination Reports
Apologizing for some local matter
being left over last week to accommo-
date the examination reports publish-
ed, the Expositor says: -
"If those who have charge of the ex-
amination lists would arrange to have
^themforwarded to the different papers
earlier in the week, it would be a great
:convenience to the papers, and would
'avoid the danger of giving one favored
'paper the preference or advantage
over others.",
The examiners are under no obliga-
'•tions to issue these reports at all, and
it has been so much gratiutous work
on their part, for the scholars are all
• notified personally of their standing.
"''Then it is practically impossible to
`"arrange" so that the lists can be for-
. -'warded earlier, and speaking for Mr
",,Robb, we know that he has always
anxious that papers should be
''':;accommodated as quickly as possi ble,
for he quite well understands the diffi-
eulty of putting the lists in type. If
•criticism, such as the one above, is all
:the thanks the Inspector receives for
his efforts to accommodate the papers,
tat much inconvenience to himself, it is
'trot likely he will continue it.
r The last sentence cf the Expositor's
extract contains an insinuation that
*vas unnecessary. There are about a
':dozers papers in East Huron Inspector -
•ate. It cannot be expected that a doz-
manuscript copies of such a list
shall be made out, but a better thing is
done, and that is to send a printed proot
.slip to each paper. The office that sets
,lip the list,be it in Clinton or elsewhere,
roust necessarily have a little advan-
e tage over the others, but it is not b
,Any means "a favored preference."
'The NEW ERA set up tbelist last week,
and mailed a printed copy to all the
papers five hours after it got the copy,
but this did not prevent us being com-
pelled to carry over till this week a
couple of columns of original matter,
lust the same as the Expositor.
Employment of Prisoners
• About a year ago a law was passed
in deference to< the demands of labor
Societies, that prisoners i evOelor.k
tae-penrte miry` & lieu ave no em-
ployment, the argument being that
• the product of their labor should not
!Conte into competition with that of
free labor. This is a misleading argu-
"'.inent, andhas been repeatedly refuted,
'but it was effective in securing the
Xiecessary legislation, and the prisoners
",/ litave remained in enforced idleness,
r ;What is the result? It is announced
:Oat since the law went into effect

40quently nothing to divert their mind.

E .. they had been employed in some pro-
f ductive labor that would have contri-
bated to their own maintenance. as
well as relieve the tension of the mind.
On July Oth the Clinton New Era passed

Holmes it may shill continue to grow With-

What becomes of the argument that
free corn would reduce the price of
coarse grains, when the price is ad-
vancing, as it is?
it would be a great deal better for
the Liberal party if the Palace Car
Cumberland was turned over to the
railway authorities, and the ordinary
means of trael used instead.
The first report concerning the
Prince Edward Island Local election,
did look as if the Liberal governtkint
had Petered out, but it sincepappears 21
that Hon. Mr Peters is supported b
Liberals as against nine Conservatives.
The re -action has not yet reached that
Province.
Personal and Political Notes
Sir Richard Cartwright is suffering from
rheumatism in his leg.
The Belleville Sun, hitherto independent
has declared its intention to support the
Government of Sir Wilfrid Laurier.
Sir Wilfrid Laurier, in a letter to a
friend in Montreal, states that he was not
oot_sulted as to the acceptance of the title
'TelPhonors bestowed upon him, and that he
ound the decree signed by the Queen when
he arrived in London.
Sir Wilfrid Laurier will be enterained at
a banquet on Monday by the French friends
of Canada in Paris. He will meet Presid-
ent Faure on Thursday, and will be the
guest of M. Hoonotaux on Friday.
Lord Aberdeen has received a dispatch
from Right Hon. Joseph Chamberlain, re-
ferring in the highest terms of praise to
the soldier -like bearing and appearance of
the discipline and behaviour of the colonial
troops, all of whom won the best of opin-
ions on all bands. Mr Chamberlain said
he could not allow the opportunity to pass
withoutspecial mention.
Mr and Mrs Gladstone celebrated the 58th
anniversary of their wedding. Many vis-
itors joined in the family rejoicings at Ha -
warden, and snores of the townspeople sal-
uted the venerable couple while on their
way to church. Both are in excellent health
Mr Gladstone walking off with as much
vigour as at any time within the past ten
years, shaking hands energetically and con-
versing with great animation.
commercial Notes
Manitoba crop reports indicate a boun-
teous harvest.
Hundreds of Canadian -made bicycles
are being shipped to Australia.
It is intended to start a new porkpaoking
etablishment at Guelph. Who says than
free Dorn will destroy Canada's porkpaok-
ing industry..
The price of Ontario wheat has advanoed
5c to 6c in the past ten days, and Man-
itoba wheat is 6c to So higher than it was
ten days ago.
The wheat crop of Norfolk county .is the
greatest that the present generations of far-
mers has seen. It is estimated that the
yield will average fully 35 bushels to the
acre, with many returns of 40 and 45 bush-
els. The recent rains have not done any
damage as yet.
London July, 26. -Although the (rade
was slow, the feeling in the market for cat-
tle was slightly firmer, and prices show a
slight advance, as compared with last week.
Choice. States Cattle sold at 10ic, choice
Canadians at 10c, and Argentines at 8i:

Improving conditions in general busin-
ess continue unabated. The splendid Drop
prospects at all centers oontinue to lend
stimulus to trade. The fruit Drop has
been large. The small fruit crop ie abund-
ant, and there is much yet to come. Re-
ports of the wheat crop in Ontario are ex-
ceptionally encouraging. -Toronto Globe.
The English Agricultural Gazette recent-
ly sent out a oircular asking information
on the subject of crop reports. The circu-
lar elicited 738 replies, the substance of
which shows that the wheat orop for the
United Kingdom is much below the aver-
age. Barley is up to the average. Oats
and potatoes are slightly below it and hay
in most districts is considerably above it.
The apple crop in Ontario will likely
be a fair one. No such big yield is expect-
ed from the orchards in this province as
was experieced last year. There has
been a sort of blight in some of the orchards
in the Niagara district, such as has played
havoc this season among the trees on the
Island of Montreal, where fruit has fallen
off the trees in large quanties. Advioes
from the Western States speak of a good'
average crop.
Further figures of the year's foreign trade
have been prepared from returns received
at the customs department at Ottawa, in-
cluding the claseiticationof exports, which
show it to be nearly $17,000,000 larger
than any figures heretofore recorded in the
history of Canada. The factories that were
to close if the Liberals were elected appear
to'have gone along much as usual. Agricult•
ure seems to have revived the moment the
Liberals obtained control of the govern•
went. The value of exports of farm pro-
duce was higher than the average for twenty
years, which was $23,600,000.

In connection with the John Eaton & Co.
fire in T,.oronto some time ago, W. A. and

way Angus slipped and fell upon his broth-
er's scythe, nutting a frightful gash in his
left side. In his writhing to secure re-
lease, he threw himself upon his own
scythe, cutting his right lag. The wounds
wore fatal, and in half an hour after leav-
ing his home he was carried back a corpse.
elinton Cricketers Win Again
A Loudon paper says: -Clinton sent
a strong team of cricketers to this city
Thursday, headed by the redoubtable
Terry, to try conclusions with the
Asylum Cricket Club. The -Asylum,
losing the toss, were sent in to bat on
a dead wicket, which caused the scor-
ing to be slow. The Asylum team
were all out at lunch time for 89 runs,
of which B. Burnand's 22, J. Buruttn4'e
16 (not out), England's 14 and Walker's
13 were the principal scorers. Cllntolu
went to bat after lunch and put in 71
for nine wickets. but the tenth and
last wicket played steadily, although
a couple of chances to retire the side
were not accepted. They put in a suf-
ficient number of runs to pull off the
match fpr Clinton, making an exciting
finish. -Clinton won on the first in-
ning by 18 rune. Terry's 38 and Me-
Murchie's 37 were the largest scores for
the winning team. The Asylum eleven
played out time in the second inning,
piling up the respectable total of 99
runs for five wickets. This is the sec-
ond time Clinton has had the honor of
defeating London. Appended ie the

Was Dead r1'e%o Days
(From The Soo Tim v,1
As Henry Sheridan entered the house
of Joseph Riter, on Spruce street, Mon-
day afternoon about 4 o'clock, he was
horrot-stricken to find Mr Hite, lying
on his bed, a corpse. The deceased had
been living alone in the house, during
the absence of his wife and children,
who have been visiting at Mrs Riter's
home in (.Clinton, Ont.., for the past six
weeks. Mr Riter was seen alive last,
Saturday everting about 11 o'clock, at
which time, he left the Superior house
for his home, stating to some friends as
he left that he intended to go fishing
the next mot ring. Chris Haane, who
intended to joiii NIr Riter on his fishing
excursion, called at the Riter home
Sunday morning and observing the
blinds in the windows to be closed, sup-
posed that Joe was sleeping, so he left
without snaking any further inquiry.
No notice was taken of Mr Riter fail-
ing to appear when t he time came to go
fishing, and the sad truth was not, learn-
ed until Monday afternoon, when Mr
Sheridan msde the discovery as above
stated.
The coroner was called at once, and
the cause of death was thought to be
apoplexy, ending in death some time
Saturday night. The body was in a
bad state of decomposition, showing
that the deceased bad been dead some
time. Mrs Riter was notified of the ter-
rible news, and a telegram was receiv-
ed from her yest erday, stating that she
and her brother, J. C. Miller, would ar-
rive here to -night. The body was em-
balmed and placed in a zinc covering
by Undertaker Vanderhook.
The deceased was 34 years of age, and
came here from Clinton with his fam-
ily same two years ago. He at once en-
gaged in the wholesale liqour business
with his hrother-in-law, Geo. Miller,
under the lirm name of Miller & Riter.
After the fire on Water street Mr Riter
assumed control of the Hotel Ioquois
bar, remaining there until that building
was destroyed by fire. Last spring he
purchased an interest in the Hotel Tes-
key, which ran up to a few days ago
under the firm name of Hamilton &
Riter. The deceased leaves a wife and
two children, a boy aged 6 and a git
aged :3 years.
Mr Riter was a man of temperate
habits, and possessed of those qualities
which won for him a very large circle
of friends, who experienced a sad shock
on learning the news of his untimely
demise.
(From the) •
Soo t J4mherat)
Joseph Riter was a pleasant gentle•
man, and although engaged in the sale
of liquor, he never used it himself, nor
did he smoke. The funeral was held
yesterday and the body was interred in
the city cernetry.
