--Favorable weather assures an, un-
precedented wheat yield in the west.
It was known that the acreage under
wheat had been largely increased --the
added areas is just 168,000 acres in the
three pralrie provinces. The season is
now so far advanced, that we may say
that the most glowing anticipations
aro certain to be realized. The only
remaining contingencies relate to hail.
and frosts. As the season is ear
lier than usual, frost at least is not
likely to injure the crop. What this
all means to the business outlook of
Canada the dullest observer can see.
With a crop of 110,000,000 to 120,000,-
000 bushels of wheat, 90,000,000 to 100,-
000,000 will be av4Lilable for export.
Deduct the cost of /might to Liver-
pool, and put the price in the western
elevators as low as you please, an en-
ormous sum of money must very soon
be at the command of western farm-
ers, which will quickly find its way in-
to the various channels of trade.
COUNCIL MINUTES.
Council met on July llth ; members
all present. Minutes of last meeting
read and passed.
The Court of Revision on the Gras -
by drain by-law resumed business.
Mr. Sinclair of Brussels was heard
on behalf of the G. T. R. Co. in the
matter of their appeal, after which
Engineer Roger gave his reasons for

pany's lands.
Campbell -Shaw -That the assess-
ment made by the engineer on G.T.R.
lands be confirmed, and that the Court
of Revision on said drainage by-laws
be now closed -carried.
Taylor-McOutcheon-That By-law
No. 4, known as the Mason drain by-
law, be finally passed -carried.
A request from the village of Wal-
ton was presented, stating that a com-
plete system Of concrete sidewalks
was being constructed in the village,
and asking for the payment of their
accrued statute labor tax amounting
to $102, also for a grant of $100 toward
the work -carried. -
McCutcheon-Campbell-That $100
be granted Walton, also that the
amount of their accrued statute labor
tax be paid toward the work -carried.
Reports on the Johnston and Mc-
Donald drains were read according to
notice and the Clerk instructed to
prepare by-laws for the sante.
Tenders were received for the con-
struction of the Mason and Grasby
drains, and on motion of Taylor and
Campbell, the tender of Wm. Con-
nelly for the Grasby drain, and that
of Jno. Curtin for the Mason drain,
being $1,467 and $661 respectively,

-The probable expenditure for this
Dominion for this year is alarming,
and should startle the country, or at
least, arouse the electors to realize the
tremendous pace that has been set for
this country of about six millions.
of population. The following is a
fairly accurate statement of the
amounts ;-
Main estimates $119,237,091
Supplementary estimates10,665,657
Supplementaries for year
before '5,329,033
Seed grain 2.8550,000
Bounties (estimated) 2,500,000
Bridge subsidies 800,000
Railway subsidies (say)12,500,000
Quebec bridge 14,500,000
Bond guarantees, yearly
(liability.) 277,095

If this money is all expended, and
with a falling revenue it probably
will be, we shall spend $473,762 or
nearly half a million dollars, every
day of the'"year. Besides this, the
debt will be increased by the building
of the Grand Trunk' Pacific. Can the
country stand such a gait as that?
Even some Liberals are aghast at the
tremendous expenditure by a Govern-
ment that pledged itself to reduce the
expenditure several millions.

---Tile attendance at the Moorefield
cantpirteeting has broken all previous
records.
-Ooderich is to have a ''College of
Music under the direction of Mr. J.
E, Jordan and three other teachers.
Agnes, relict of the late Andrew
Quaid of Colborne township, died last
week, aged 9R. She and her husband
were pioneers of the township, having
settled there in 1801.
-Architect Binning, LiatCiwel, who
prepared the plans for the new
library building at Listowel, bas been
commissioned to prepare plans for a
$10,000 building at Harriston and a
$4,000 one at Mitchell,
-W. K. Loth, Milverton, who had
between $40 and $50 taken from bis
till a couple of weeks ago, has had
most of the money returned to him
with a promise that the balance would
be made up at an early date,
-Exeter canning factory is compell-
ed to work overtime in order to keep
up with the supply of peas coming in.
The two viners are kept busy and the
packers worked all night Tuesday of
last week. The average pack per clay
is 30,000 cans,
-The surveys for the Ontario West
Shore Electric Railway are now com-
pleted from Goderich to Kincardine.
It is expected that the work of con-
struction will commence either in the
latter part of the present month or in
the beginning of August.
-Goderich postoffice is being fitted
with new letter boxes, and hereafter
box -holders will use a combination
instead of a key to open their boxes.
Each box will,• of course, have a dif-
ferent combination, and it is expected
that the new system will be an
improvement over the old one.
-The Crown Lands Department of
Ontario has opened the townships of
Bowman, Hislop and Benoit for set-
tlement under the new bill of last ses-
sion, which gives the settler every-
thing. The newly surveyed town-
ships are described as agricultural.
The homesteads will be 100 acres, at
50c per acre. One-quarter of the
amount must be paid in cash, and the
settler must reside three years on the
property, clear ten per cent. of it, and.
erect a house.
-One of the questions asked today
is "Will there be a Dominion election
this fall ?" The indications are that
there will be. The present is the
tenth parliament of the Dominion,
and only two parliaments have lasted
the full five years -the first and the
seventh. It is almost an unwritten
law that parliament shall be dissolved
a year ahead of the term allowed by
the constitution. But dull times
came, and it was thought that it was
not wise to rush an election. But the
scene has changed. The magnificent
crop prospect in the west has come
just at the right moment. A month
or two later, all the wheels of com-
merce and industry may be humming.
The only reason for the postponement
of the elections has vanished. Be-
sides, we have the usual election signs
in promises of public buildings, rail-
ways, wharves, canals, extensions of
boundaries for Quebec, Manitoba and
Ontario. Millions upon millions are
promised, and that too with the ex-
penditure already at the $138,000,000
mark. Can these promises be fulfill-
ed ? Ought they to be considering the
tremendous expenditure bordering on
the 140 millions, whereas twelve yeard
ago it was about .a hundred millions
less, and this same Government prom-
ised to reduce it by several millions
annually.
