The Huron Expositor, 1889-10-18, Page 6777. 4174- TOPICS POE THE TIMES Written for Tun Exreariele.l,, THE WOR 1C Or TICE N. P., It is reported from Toronto that Eng lish capitalists are about to purchateth large Geoderham distilkry. This dis finery was established many years ag by the late Mr. William Gooderham Who subsequently took in his nephew Mr. Worts, now dead, and Me son, Mi. George Gooderham. For • some tim past, since the .death of the two firs named persons, theconcern has, bee . conducted by a joint stock company con eisting.of the members of the Goederha - and 'Worts families, but recently M George Gooderham acquired -full, owne ship by buying out the rest. It is the figure which the English inve-Aer will pay him is seven million &Aar& Some of themost valuable .fra-aolti connected with the distilling hurAness Canada have been created by ,ttie pr sent Government. The _few distille we have are all good Tories. aad ric men who can afford to subswibe tibera ly to Sir _John's Campaign 4.411freig• 1. The N. P.4. places a duty on impor ed alcohol or whisky a-Jf $1::75 per im perial gallon,, proof spirit. The exci . duty is only $1.30 for pro. 2. The Inland Revenue Act prOvid that whisky made in Canada 'ehall'ne be saihere anti' it has lain two year inbond. The Government pretends tha this rule is designed to protect the whi ky drinker from new and unripe whi ky which usually contains as °onside able percentage of deleterious matter But the distillers are aware thet the reg uletion was devised to prevant hom competition. A new distillery woul have to run for at least two years befor it omild dispose of a gallon of stuff. 3. The -same Act provides that India -oorn, barley, oats and rye, the article - from which Canadian whisky is menu factured, may be imported free of dut on condition that the whisky or alcoho produced from a-uoli importation is ex ported out of Canada. Gooderham's ex 'port 'trade in alcohol far exceeds th home male, and, this doubtless true of some or all of the other distilleries Hence when the Canadian farmer, owing to partial failure of the crops, is in a position to obtain a higher price for the staples just named than that prevailing inthe- United States -in - other words, when the duties on these articles might really be of some benefit to him -the distillers are allowed to dip out of his hen& and get their raw material free from the other side. The genie provi don applies to brewer& But there is uo - such provision_ in fever of the farmer, whot ata time of drought, wouldlike te - have cheap Indian corn for feeding pur- poses. He has to pay the duty though 'his cattle be intended for export. It will thus be seen that the distiller- • ies occupy an exceptional position,_ th•e ' P., helps them where it can, and is set aside when it promises to hurt their interests. This ie proteoticin with a vengeance to a business which,' to put it mildly, is not one that confers unmixed blessings uponsthe community. S'OREIOlf TRADE. The Australian = „colonies have given the Ottawa Government to understand that it IS no use for Mr. Abbott to visit thent just now with a view of trying to' establish closer trade relations. The Australians seem to see, what our Government evidently does net, that if - we cannot compete at home with British manufacturers it hi not likely- that we could undersell them on the other side of the globe, especially when we to tax the goods offered in ex- change. Protection. has been describesd as aZort of riding -school where genera titan after generation of men tries to - make use of a horse which throws every- body. Many protectionist nations have started out to accomplish the task of .selling to the foreigner without buying "from him, regardless of the universal experience that commerce is merely an exchange of product for product, and hence that when we sell we must take the foreigners goods in payment, or he will soon cease to buy. As a matter of mine, they have one and all failed to achieve the end in view, which would involve an economic miracle surpassing human comprehension. Nevertheless their fate affoYds no warning to the next comer, who jauntily' _sends trade oommissioners to Australia the West Indies, Brazil, Spain and Other countries to preform the same impossible feat. •• Mr. Abbott s has gone,- on that errand, and he should be thankful to the Aus- tralians for warning him not to waste his time and our money. * Aside from the vanity of expecting to sell abroad without importing from • abroad, we are hampered by our tariff • • at the very threshold, so to spealr„of foreign commerce : that is to say, by exaltmg the cost of *production the N. P.4renders it very doubtful whether we , could sell it at all. A ease in _point is that of the eminent firm of Waterous & Company, Brantford. Prior to 1879, this firm did a large and lucrative busi- ness in steam saw -mills in Chili an • other South American countries, where they had resident agents. • But the iron duties and other taxes ontheir raw material -and on the manufactures of•' iron and steel which enter into the con- • struction of their machines have so greatly augmented the costat the factory,that they can to longer compete in that market with their British rivals The trade, in short, has' been destroyed by the tariff, and they are driven back • upon the home market, which is too cramped for a business like theirs. There is something almost ludicrous, too, in the action of the Government in passing by a Market of sixty .rnillions of rich purchasers, which lies it our own door, . and going to the ends of the earth in search of trade which twe ,could only securein the teeth of the British com- petition. If; as the Gevernment's course -implies, and as their organs., pro- claim, the Canadian manufacturer could not live even athome under the pressure of Ainericans rivalry, how in the name of comma' sense is he going to mist the British manufacturer from a remote market ? Manufacturers like Waterous & Com- pany who know their business and are not mere °ripples maintained by a tariff poor -rate, are not afraid to face the Americans under continental free trade. They desire nothing se much a access to the American market upon equal tering with the American manu- • facturer. They say, with truth, that /Ugh trade would benefitus all, except thi 'weak brethren, Who would probably , succumb ; and that it would be. worth to the Canadian people at large more *tau all the foreign commerce we could THE }C R0.11 EXPOSITOR. lees f elesene fallailmoustsfalsseasweosews.arrateramonam.- get under present , conditions Ifs tilos, endAhbets wer a texturing the world, THE' LAKE TRADE.

The seheF A te certainly a preposterous one, for t Ae Welland may )3e said to belong - t? . die AtnefiCans, their vessels being its or stef mainstay. It is not more pre- Tiosterous, however, than the prejeet, already commenced, df building a AVM on. Canadian soil to the Sault can 1. Nor is it any more bsurd than • tie policy which leads both countries, wh n at great expense they have built bridg s, railroads and canals, connecting the o e with theother, to erect a double r w of custom houses in order to -restrict t e • very trade which -those enterprises were designed to encourage. This is perhaps the most illogical proceeding of all., .1 The canal question has led to Borne discussion of the condition of the Cap - :Wien lake marine. The famous chaP• ter of -the snakes in Iceland began and ended with the 1,701'4 "There are lio snakes in Iceland." A similar brief mid sententious account Will shortly be giy- en of the Canadian lake marine. o far as is known, not a single new yen 1 •of any size is being built this year in Lake Ontario; and only one or two a e on the stocks in the other lakes. ' The value of all passes, except those en- gaged as pleasure boats at Toronto and elsewhere, has declined.- ' The owner f a three -masted schooner, which four4r five years ago cost $15,000, -declared t es other day that he would gladly take $7,000 for h'er. The effect of low rail road rates is responsible to some extent for this decay, but, the prime cause is the exclusion of our 'vesiels from the American coasting trade. A Canadian vessel may trade from an American pert -to a Canadiaft port or vice vere but is not allowed to take a cargo dire° from- One American port to anothe Unrestricted commercial intercourse i the only thing that can save the Cana dian lake trade from ' extinotion. Th Government may spend as many million as it pleases in building new Canadian canals or widening old ones, but uncle existing conditions the money will simp ly benefit Americen vessel -owners • • ' Slips of the Tongue. "I never open my mouth but I pu my foot in it," was the curious complain of some unlucky wight; who might hay received consolation had he reflected o the number of offenders that, daily kee him company. A writer in Chambere Jdurnal tells of a number of bulls- a much amusing. The guardsman's re markt° the English nobleman who wa in the habit of affably conversing wit soldiers, "1 like you, my lord; there I nothing of a gentleman about you,' offers an example of the . kind. " How many deaths ?"- asked a hospital physic ian. "Nine." "'why, I ordered medi eine for ten." " Yes ; but one -would not take it," was the startling reply " Hill°, ! where are you going at thi time of night ?" said a gentleman to hi servant, "You are after no good I'll warrant." "Please, sir, mistress sent me for you, sir," was. the response. A gentleman maid to the waiter of his club, " Michael, if I -should die, would you attend my funeral?" " Willingly, sir," was the hasty answer. . "Well, Michael that isn't very complimentary." "No, air, I didn't Mane that, sir; I wouldn't be seen there sir," was the waiter's eon- solatory may. ,.• A child niay Often be expected to put his or her heedless little foot in it, as the phrase goes. For instance, a young- ster one day begged an invitation to dinner at the house of a friend with whom he had been playing. - At = the table his hostess anxiously inquired: "Charlie, can you cut your own meat?" Humph !" said the youngster, who was sawing away, "can't 1? I've cut up quite as tough meat as this at home I" People who are destitute of . tact might take warning frorn such Juvenile mala- props, but such does not often appear to be the case, judging by the numerous examples to the contrary. . A millionaire railway king has a brother who is hard of hearing, while he himself is remarkable as having a Very prominent nose. Once the railway king dined at a friend's house when he sat between two ladies, who talked to him very loudly, rather to his annoyance,but he said nothing. s Finally one of them shouted a commonplace . remark, and then said in an ordinary tone . to the -other, "Did you -ever see such a nose in all your life ?" "Pardon me, ladies," said the millionaire, " it's my brother who is deaf." You can imagine the horror of the lady who indulged in such personal remarks; yet she was no more awkwardly Placed than the hero of the following: When dining at a certain castle a Mr. T-, after the ladies re- tired, remarked to a gentleman present that the lady whO sat on his right was the ugliest woman 'he. had ever seep: "1 am sorry to hear," said the gentle- man, "that you thinmy wife is so ill - looking." "Oh, not sir; I meant the lady who -Rat on naY left r I made a mis; take." "Well, sir, she is my sister." . English Lady Firemen. The Paris -correspondent -of the Daily, News, writing about lady firemen, says. that the lady members of the Ere bri- gade in Paris, who are the lions of the hour, are young English girls -the Misies Mortimer, Niohols, Bessell, Prit- chard, and Jeffs, who have .come over with delegates of the English fire bri- gades: They . are all Londoners. • "1 had this evening a talk with the whole party and with Major Heath, late of the .King's Fusiliers, and Captain ,Louis, late French Consul.and ex -Secre- tary of the French.Embassy in -Lon- ladies were pia° d by _their fathers. . don, under whose- are two of the young Major Heath told me that to Miss Mor- timer, the honor was due of taking the first step. M. Louis suggested it to her. After a great fire, he said to her that there really was no more danger in get ting out of a high window than out of one on a first floor, if there were nerve and a cool determination to hold on to the rope or ladder. -The peril lay in flurry and want of pluck. Were some plucky girls to show women how easy it is to make descents from top windows the victims from the fire would not be so many. . Miss Mortimer consequently tried. She made her first perilous de- scent from a fifth storey at -Coventry. He asked her how she felt, and she said nervous,' but not durtied or =really afraid. All the girls began with tperil- ous descents, and were not trained gradually to make their plungeii down life saving fcanvasses. One of them made a plunge from the top of a very high house, and was on her feet and safe in a moment, so that she had not time to be scared at what she had done. They have learned to go up, rop,es and - ladders as well as down. Major Heath told me that Madame Carnot had in- vited the girls to, Fountainebleau, and, that the President, at a general review, was to eee them at work. The ladies wear red silk caps, dark blue shert skirts, not descending below •the calf, soft leather bootie, neat bodices, with broad brass buttons, and turned up with red at the neck and the cuffs." -The Stratford Beacon of last week says :-Mr. D. M. Buchanan, B. A., student of Divinity, who has had charge of the pastoral work of Knox church, Stratford, for some weeks, left on Tues- day to resume his studies in Knox Col- lege, Toronto. • During his, short stay in - Stratford he endeared himself to all with whom he came M contact by his affable, pleasing manner, and he 3arries aWay with him the best wishes of all his friends here. -Mr. Frank Carling has rented the Staffa hotel and moves in this 'week. -About five years ago J. .E. BrCwn; merchant, Delta, came to Kingston to attend the Provincial fair. When he decided to go home he started at night for the station but before reaching it he was met by men who seized him, threw him over a fence into -a vacant field, and robbed him of $130 in bills, five dollar gold piece, four dollars in silver, a watch, chain, and ring, and other :val- uables. Two ybung men,Keleher and Ahearn, Were arrested, tried, convicted of the robbery, and sentenced to 14 and 18 months respectively in the Central prison. Now for the sequel. On Mon- day last week a stranger called at the Dominion express office in Kingston and handed in a small package for J. E. Brown Delta, Mr. Bron received the packw age, and found it contained the articles which had been stolen from him, and $30 in bills, and a note asking Mr. Brown to insert the following notice in the papers :--" John E.
