It is not the Seeate that Sir Wilfrid Laurier will first have to "mend or end," for it is fast coming to be a ques- tion of his mending the veays or of the country's ending the days of the Gov- ernment of Canada.

The idea that a, Perth county farmer should have a judgment as compared to the judg- ment of his leaders, tickles the Beacon • half to death. In his utterly worthless judgment SouthPerthis a constituency of free men. According to the decree of the Beacon South Perth is merely a eubber stamp, and Mr. Erb's whole duty, is to be a wooden handle which Hon. Clifford. Sifton can grasp when he wishes to use South Perth in the • process of iegisteringhis bad bargains. x = x The London Advertiser accuses the Conservative Senators of =patriotism, partisanism and old-foggyisnx becauee they vetoed the Yukon bill recently paesed by the Laurier Government in • the House of Comriaons.

There will be plenty of growling all over the country at the Government's decision to further reduce the rate of interest. on deposits in P. 0. savin s banks from 3 to 2 1-2 per cent. r. Fielding will net over $200,000 per an- num by the change, which hits the working classes who are provident and desire to save a little money for eraer- gencies. The new License Act which will go into force on May lst will have the effect of cutting off in the neighbor- hood of 150 licenses in the towns a•nd cities throughout the Province. The places that the greatest reduction -will take place are Kingston, Belleville, Peterboroe Niagara Falls and Wind- sor. In each of these places there will be cut off from five to eight licenses. A sad accident ha,ppeeed near Chat- ham Centre on Tuesday, by which William Miller, aged 18, son of Wal- ter Miller, of con. 5, lost his life. He, in company with his brother George, was chopping down a tree, when a branch broke off, and falling, struck him on the side of the head. He only lived about fifteen minutes. The family con- sisted of five brothers besides himself. They have the sincere sympathy of the entire neighborhood. A very sad accident happened to May Sharp, tb e little 5 -year old daugh- ter of John H. Sharp, of Lake View, on Moedity., The child was trying to put some wood on tbe kitchen stove, when she set fire to her clothing. Her mother heard her scream ane immedi- ately rushed to her and extinguished the flames as soon as possible.

It has been obseeved and commented upon all over Cautecla and the U. S. Why should ohildree ia ever-increasing numbers And it neces- sary to disfigure themselves by wear- ing glasses? Many theories have been advanced to account for it. Specialists oculists, physicians, keen observers in all walks of life are joh tly of the opinion, that it is due to one cause mainly, viz, our modern system of education. Tbat system is carried on to a great extent by blackboards. Public attention was lirst called to this subjectin Plailadelphia someyears ago. Blackboards were usually made of 'rented, glistening boards that reflect- ed light at right angles, and children sitting in a certain part of the room could not see writing or figures on the blackboards at all. It was observed that children sitting on back seats were Wore often affected in sight than those on front seats. Slate blackboards were then introduced to remedy the evil. They have now been in else fore years in American cities, but • the trouble continues to be nearly as pro- nounced as before. The attention of the Education Department in Toro - oto was called to the trouble, and the department advised slate boards. But slate boards are not a remedy for the evil. Children have to strain the eyes so much to. catch small • figures or letters at so great a distance, that eventually the eye muscles become overstrained, and lose the power of contracting. After that occurs, clear sight beyond a very few feet is lost, probably forever.' If noticed and re- mediectin time, complete rest to the eye n4ay restore the normal functions of the overstrssined muscles. Children do not notice the increasing inability to see, and attention is generally call- ed. to it by the teacher having to move the child from a back to a front row of • seats. Ver Y ofteu at this stage the power of good vision is forever lost. It is becoming a question of which is to g9, school bleckboards or children s eyesight. It should. not be hard to de- cide which is the most value. The Question is becoming serious. Teach- ers, trustees, pareets and guardians shouedearefully consider the subject and if Observation juitifies the conten- tion that blackboards are a serious menace to the eyesight of the school generation, then decided steps should be taken at once to abate the evil. Free discussion of this subject will do much good. Yours &c.,. • Exeter,April •. J. A. R. ,Briblsh (loltuobla James Walters and Mother, of Clin- ton, latve gdhe tti York, Dakota., S. S.

If the destiny of Canada ever was in doubt, the Advertiser did all that lay in its power to settle the doubts in favor of the United States. It, was Otte of the advocates of continentalism, it was anti -Canadian, and the venomous tool of a, policy which sought to destroy the national hopes and faiths of Cana, - diens. It stood with Edward Ferrer and other adventurers whee they tried to raise enough .pro -American senti- ment to fin the sails of the armexta tionist fleet. Conservatives stood up for Canada in those days as they do at this time, and because the opposition in the House of Commons and the majority of theSenate refuse to allow the 'Yukon gold fields to be turned into the priyate eetate of Williero leicleenzie arid Daniel Mann, their actions are styled as disloyal, short- sighted, etc. The men and journals whose true devotion to Canada was proved in an evil time can go on in the fight against iniquities like the Yukon bargain, firm in the faith thee their good name for patriotism will nob be seriously injured by the fair weather patriots of elm Liberal press, ad if the Advertiser, and the Laurier Govern - merle are diesatiefied with the ac- tion of the Senate, their remedy is -very siznple, but it is one Which they are wiser than to apply. • In such ease it would be the tiberac majority that 'Would be in danger, hot the Senate. taatknovv. lost au old and greatly' re- spected citizen on Monday laStin. the e rh of Ya.s.

This is W760,000 altogether annually for this Intercolonial extension. The receipts of the Intercolonial average $2,503 per mile for the year, and this where there is no competition. On the regular In- tercolonial basis the new piece of road -170 miles -will earn $405,000 annual- ly, so that the country will be just $359,000 out by the deal. Discussing the Yukon deal, the Weekly Sun, edited by Prof. Groldwin Smith,says:-"We have no doubt that the commercial advantages to Can- ada of the proposed railroad have been greatly exaggerated. If so much trade depends npon its construction, it will be built without the Govern- ment requiring to tie up any territory or give the company a monopoly. The Claim thet, it was an "all -Chen adian" route was soon shown to be incorrect,.

But as no other name but mine appears in the article I feel it nay duty to reply in behalf of the base ball boys, and in doing so it is necessary for mo to re- fer back to last year in order to show op the way the ball players tell Inc they were used by the lacrosse team. On 2nd of last April certain members of the lacrosse team waited on the council and asked for a grant to help pay for tbe use of recreation grounds, on which to play lacrosse and other games. It was moved:by Chas. Snell ancl seconded by A. .T, Rollins and carried, that ten dollars be granted towards renting recreation grounds, with the understanding that all games should share tend share, alike. The • so- asesebewaissekeeekellbssaa Netting, • :Milk Cans, Crown Cans, order was drawn out in favor of the president of the lacrosse club, and be pfficEs A• wAy DowN FoR. cAsH was notified by the council not to pay over said money =less the lacrosse club would give the baseball teub a fair show, which I am told tbe lacroise boys agreed. to do, but afterwards re- fused. After a good deal of commot- ion between the two clubs I am told oertain members et the head of the. lacrosse club promised the baseball club, if they would rent another piece of land on which to play ball, which was to cost five dollars, they (the la- crosse club) would pay two dollars and fifty cents out of the town grant towards it. The base ball boys acting in good faith, rentedthe grounds, and paid for them outof their own pockets, and when they presented their bill the lacrosse boys refused to pay it on the ground, I am told,• that an of their club did. not sanction it. A few weeks ago the lacrosse team called a meeting and organized, and placed me in office, as their Hon. President. During their meeting they resolved to secure the recreation grounds for their own use, and a certain member stated when they got the ground the baseball team could go to h-eand get their grounds to . plass on this year. The baseball teem thinking Exeter a warm enough climate during the sueurner months to play ball in, decided they would rent the recreation grounds themselves,and accordingly struck out early in the morning and secured the grounds to the great dismay of the lacrosse boys; and when the lacroste boys found out they were caught in their own game they tried to beat the besebalI boys oat of the greuncls by offering $5 more, but it did not work. Then certain members; "Fair Play" being one of them, went around the town calling the baseball boys all kinds of vile names because they had done • such a dirty trick as to rent the best grounds in town without giving the • lacrosse club the first chance. After inspecting different other grounds in town and finding none that suited them, they decided on trying if they could not come to some amicable ar- rangements with the baseball boys, and accordingly sent a deputation who waited on the baseball boys and asked if they would meet a committee of the lacrosse boys, which was agreed. upon, and accordingly a meeting was called for the following eyening to be held in the town hall. In opening the meet- ing I explained to them the very awkward position I was plated in, being Hon. President of the one team and Manager of the other, especially when there was an old dispute between them, and I explained to them that I was determined to do whit was right towards both clubs. • I also stated that it had been the desire of the baseball boys to retain the full privileges of the grounds for their own use but I had. persuaded them under the circum- stances to give the lacrosse boys a fair show providing they would pay the $2.50 which they owed. Hadthey not been willing to do so, I could not act as their- manager, bolding the office I did in the lacrossaclub. After a good deal of discussion from both sides of tbe house, the manager of the lacrosse club offered to leave the 'emitter in dis- pute to one member of each club who were to wait on the coencil and ascer- tain whether or not the ball players were entitled to the $2.50 or not, and if thee were he would guarantee the payment of the same. I then asked if the grant had been given for re- creation grounds, and each club was to share and share alike, would he pay the $2.50, when embe of theta said oo, and others shook their heads not to agree to anything of thelind, some of them contendieg that this year's club were not responsible for last year's debts, but till tbev sign themselves "Fair Play." I then told them elis- tinctly that no leather leueiness could be transacted until the $2,50 was. paid, atter which the lacrosse team left the meeting, apparentlyin disgust. Now, Mt. Editor, I would juA say, in con - elusion, if the lacrosse boys, vvisbed to deal with the baseball boys they could have done so on a square basis, but, as some of them told me next day, they wafted the grounds four days every week, ana were only willing to pay half the cost. If they are willing to square themselves with the ball boys do not think they would have any trouble in securing the grounds three eights a week, but if they are bot, no eeasomtble person can bleene the base- ball boys if they reserve the full pee of the grounds for their owe game. At the same time, I Wish to tender iny resignation as Ron. President of the :Exeter Lacrosse Club.
