The reason assigned, his having opposed a clause in the Autonomy bill, the le- gality of which its framers themselves can scarcely be said to have seriously defended, is as flimsy as the sight was. unbecoming." -The reason for the high price of butter is said by a leading agricultural journal to be a shortage of imports in the ol(1. land. For the year ending Tune, 1905, there was tt decrease of over 15,000 tons from European mar= - kets, This was due to the severe drought on the continent of Europe, chiefly in the center and south, which persisted all through the late srllJltnel' great autumn of 1901. So was the heat and lash: of rain that, in those parts of Europe, nearly the whole of the grass crop and the second crop of .hay were total failures, and farmer's and dairymen were unable to make anything approrching to their usual output of butter; and, unfor- tunately for them, they were further compelled largely to reduce their milking herds during last winter, ow- ing to the itnpossibility of providing sufficient fodder for the cattle. Even up to to -day they have not been able to restore their normal number of cows. This short output of butter in Central and Southern Europe com- pelled people in the drought area to draw their supplies from other coun- tries. —The Toronto News says : "What will be left of Provincial Rights for Manitoba, or any other Province, when the Laurier Government fully develops its policy is matter for cou- jecture. The doctrine of Provincial Rights, once a bed -rock principle of the Liberal party both in Federal and Provincial affairs, has been thrown to the wolves." —In Toronto Saturday Night, the editor says :—"The intriguing, gerry- mandering, obvious injustice and despotism of the Laurier Government may, for the time, unmake Hon. Mr. Haultain in Saskatchewan, but it will make hint Premier of Canada. How few knew of him before this happen- ed ? Who does not know and respect hint now ?" • —Japan, from a total area of 147,655 square miles, of which only 19,000 are cultivated, collected an annual re- venue before the war with Russia be- gan of $121,433,725, and her exports amounted to $121,208,923. On the 19,000 square miles of land that is actually tilled, 30,000,000 farmers are sustained, or over 1,500 people to the square mile. ,Such a population to the square toile sustained by agricul- ture seems to the Canadian mind in- credible ; but on the island of Jersey, off the English coast, a population of 1,300 to the square mile is sustained by agriculture, and that in a climate by no means the best suited to farm- ing. .. —Thoughtful sten in the aid coun- try have studied. the question for nearly half a century as to the best means of bettering the condition of the people of Ireland. The Irish land - purchase act, it was hoped would solve the problem, but it has not filled the measure of anticipation. A new plan is now to be tried. The govern- ment, has decided to provide 5100,000,- 000 at once to be loaned to tenants who will purchase the farms from the landlords on a rental basis for eighteen. or twenty years, the tenant to pay the government three per cent. for the use of the stoney. During the year 1006, $50,000,000 will be furnished by the government and a thorough test will be made to give to each ten- ant an opportunity to buy the land he is tilling. • —"Fighting Joe Martin," as he has been called, delivered an address in Winnipeg last week.

Elliott is again doing most of the apple -buying in this district this season, but finds the crop in Huron is only about 25 per cent. of a full crop. The Goderieh Knitting factory is still working on ordered work, and the manager states that orders for 1905 are in excess of those received in 1001. Inspector Asquith laid. information against Geo. Buxton of Clinton, be- fore P, 14, Humber, for selling liquor on Sunday, August 27th. He admit- ted and paid a fine of 520 and costs, it being the first offence. It may be that the Guelph & Gode- rich Railway will be in running order by the 1st of March next, as a C. P. R. official is reported to have stated at Guelph last week, but a good many people at this end of the line will be greatly surprised if the prediction is fulfilled, in view of the immense amount of difficult work yet to be done here, A delegation of the Farmers' Alli- ance recently waited upon ?Ir. Whit- ney, and made the following requests: "Taxation of railways ; abolition of railway subsidies ; a Government royalty on mineral output ; legisla- tion regarding water powers (Nia- gara particularly in view), which would preserve the value to the public at reasonable rates : conser- vation of forest wealth ; and a use of the referendum or plebiscite in important political issues." Regarding these requests, Mr. Whit- ney gave very definite and straight- forward answers, and nearly all will be granted so far as is possible. Mr. Whitney admits that the railways are not paying their share of taxation and the question will receive attention. Our mineral wealth must also con- tribute to the cost of running the country. On the question of subsidies Mr. Whitney was very plain. No more land would be given to railways, though in special cases slight aid might be necessary, but he is opposed to the principle of giving away the people's territory. On the question of water powers, Mr. Whitney's gov- ernment has already taken action. On the referendum, however, Mr. Whitney was not afraid to define his position and plainly say "No." The reason he gave was—that it could not be properly worked out under the. British system of government. In commenting on Mr. Whitney's straightforward replies to the deputa- tion, the Ottawa Journal (Indepen- dent) says :—"Mr. Whitney's answers are illustrative of both the plain -spok- enness and the strong public spirit which have marked Mr. Whitney's tenure of power so far, and have been, we believe, steadily strengthening him with the people of the Province. It is evident that the administration of Ontario has come into very honest and straightforward hands, and the Jour- nal believes into very able ones. Every indication since the general election in January has been to this effect. The people of the Province have a power of reason to thank them- selves that they did not "whack Whit- ney," as advised by the heelers of the awful previous Government."

MILLS of a third party would be to fight these corrupt influences and to form a rallying ground in the house for men of honesty and principle. Their numbers at first might be few but their influence would be proportion- ately great. —Prof. Goldwin Smith writes thus, ▪ regarding the inauguration of the two new provinces in the West :—"It is a ▪ pity that the opening of the new Pro- -es vincial Governments could not have V.▪ : been left entirely in the hands of the • Governor-General, and by him per- formed, as the impartial representa- tive of the Crown, with a dignified ex- pression of the thoughts and semi- saw tnents which the birth of a new cons - • Triunity inspires. 1es Insteat of this there was the master of the party machine come to bring the two new communi- ties in their natal hour under its de - sae -';.,: grading tyranny, and to infect them • with the narrow passions which it serves, and with the electoral trickery • and corruption which form its train. But the Prime Minister of the Bonin- ion went beyond what even custom ry licenses in meddling with the forma tion of Provincial Government and the direction of their policy.

Young, of Ashfield, in connection with the drowning of his daughter in the mill pond at Port Albert, a few weeks since. The result was the offer and the acceptance of four hundred dollars by Mr. Young in full of all claims for the loss of his daughter. On Tuesday Wm. Graham, who has been freight clerk at the G.T.R. depot, was promoted to the position of sta- tion master at Belgrave. Walter Mitchell was promoted to the position of freight clerk, vacated by 'Wm. Gra- ham, and Cecil Farr to the position of cashier, vice Walter Mitchell. Mr. Graham, who has assumed his duties as station agent at Belgrave, is a cap- able R. R. man, and will no doubt be a successful station master, (Weekly Sun). Since 1891 some 200 miles have been added to the length of the Intereo- lonial. At 540,000 a mile that would amount to $8,000,000. But during the same time the capital of the railway has been increased by about $20,000,- 000. Why the difference in these figures? Because in the meantime certain im- provements of it temporary nature, instead of being met out of current revenue as they should have been, have been added to the debt on the road. And this policy of adding to the indebtedness of the line for the purpose of meeting Current expendi- tures is still being pursued. The cost of new stations, shops, appliances for trains, etc., is this year being charged. tip to capital. A total of nearly 82,- 500,000 is being added to the debt of the Intercolonial for the year 1905-6, and outside of $100,000 for double - tracking, $05,000 for a branch and $26,000 for spur lines, every dollar of the amount should be met out of the year's receipts. On the other stand, the Ontario Gov- ermnent's Tenliskaming line is not only meeting all operating expenses out of income but is laying aside enough to meet interest on cost of construction. The Ontario line is nn - der a eotntnissiot ; it is not, as is the COO with the •Intercoloniitl, operated by a Minister with politieal advantage as a prime consideration.
