VESDAY, SEPT) .2 9111, 1887 Notioe to the Public;, Qn and after October 1St, the office of the Exeter Alovocae4 will be located two doors north of the pest -office, west side of Main st, where the printing plant in connection with this paper has been removed. Owing to renaoval, the Aevocaere is issued this week one dax earlier than -usual, and our usual sup- ply of correspondence for the week being received toe late., will appear in our next.

These' Indians have attained to a high degree of civilization, and formed a flourishing community under the tute- lage of Rev. William Duncan, a raja- eienary, -who has labored, among. them Lor many years. In s ome way or other they were dispossed o f their lands, and as repeated appeal to the Government' have had no effect, some.three hunch - red members of the tribe haveemigrat- ed to Alaska. It is greatly to be re- gretted thet so Promising an experi- ment in civilizing the Indians should have been broken .up. The matter is somehow involved with., a quarrel be- tween the minister and -his church, and 'fiumerous statements pro and con have appeared from time to time. But this much is clear,that under some pretext the Indians have been robbed of their property, the resultt of meny.years' bor upon land which they reclaimed trom the wilderness. Under whatever color of legality this was done, it is as disgrace to Canada, and will have .a very bad effect upon the large Indian population of.the.Pacific Province. IN DisOOSSING the rumor that Ma Meredith would shortly retire from the 2eadership of the. -Ontario Opposition (tad take a judgeship, one of the Dom- inion Government's organs here makes some very. unkind 'references to that gentleman's political career., It says: "Mr, Ileredithahas once been the ee.}iration of the Ontario:Conservative party and the cause. of itsrepeated de- feats. He has doeae neaalr all the, work during each session and his feeble lieutenants have never given much pro- mise of possessing brains enough "to form a ministry, if they had been giv- en the chance. It would appear, then, that minus Mr. Meredith the Opposi- Con would.not amount to much. It is equally teue, however, that the some- body, whom force of circumstances -would raise up to lead the forlorn hope would certainly improve Mr. Mere- dith's tactics." Ras.. G. M..„Miaaletaie, of Toronto, took oceattIon, last Sunday, to . assail Commercial. Upton advocates from the pulpit. The propriety and good taste of such a proceeding. is, a matter be, tween the reverend gantleman and his congregation. If that is the kind of preaphing they likeie.nd are milling to pay for, it. is nobody else's .,business. .But when the preicher deliberately tnisrepiesents those who urge corn- mereial nnion, and eliargee them with "agatatieg annexation"—it is a differ - eat matter, Ma Milligan, in Making eueh an assertion% tither stated- what he knew to, be untrue, or showed his complete igeoranee of the queetiori he asattnied to.dis cuss.

A cargo- was land- ed in goodiconditione but a eheavy loss is reported' ont the consignment. The cause is partlysthe glutted condition of the ..British market; partly the heavy. freights, which' are nearly double the ordinary rates, because there is no other Canadian trade to- that' point. Distance and ocean freights will always be a drawback to- our trachbg with Europe.- It is fcilly to tell us to look: entirler to- the English' mark -et, 'and pass by that whiehe lies at , our own doors, TIM APATHA of the .American people on the question of Commercial Union, has done great service as an argument for the ultra.protectionist s, regardless of its bearing upon their argument, that the .whiele thing .is a put-up Yankee dodge to -bring .about an nexation, will not be • available• much longer.

The company is making a thorough investigation of the subject, with a view to equipping their cars with the best that 'is going, before the wintor opens. IF IT be true that Mr. W. Re Mere -4 dial, the leader of the Opposition in the Ontario Legislature, is about to re- tire from political. life. to accept that seat upon the bench, which he is sing- ularly well qualiffe,d to fill, the only: Conservative leader in Canada who en- joys the respect and esteem of his pol- itical adversaries wilI have disappeared. MraMeredith has been unsuccessful as an dace -seeker, but he has maintained throughout the most unfavorable cir- cumstances the oharacter of not only an, able,but of an honest Man.
