One hundred years ago on the 21st September, 1793, the first orange lodge was formed at the Diamond in the county Armagh, . Ireland. Ninety- nine years ago last Friday witnessed the first meeting of the Grand Orange Lodge of Ireland. in the town of Porta- down in the same county ; now wher- ever the English tongue is spoken, are members of the order who honor and celebrate the victory won at the Boyne, which secured to the people of the British Empire the rights of free- men, which were attetn ted to be taken from them by the bigoted and prejudiced James II. During the past century the association has had many enemies to contend with, both from traitors within its ranks, avowed Ho- man Catholic and allied Pretestant enemies, hut founded as it is on the principles of Divine truth, every attack on it has bad the effect of making it stronger and stronger and extending its influence. The north of Ireland is tt my called the cradle of Orangeism ; there the infant society was organized, now it extends over the British Em- pire, as well as a good part of the Un- ited States, like the little cloud that the servant of Elijah saw rise out of the sea like unto a man's hand, it has become a shower that has watered the whole earth. On Monday Laurier tried another catch motion. Foster -gave him a iner'ciless lashing.

Sovereign Grand Master Wallace de- livered an address to the Orangemen at Ottawa last Friday. His remarks on the Manitoba school question so correctly mirror the past utterances of THE NEWS..RECORD that we reproduce thene:— i The Government, after the last de- cision of -the Judical Committee, re- ferred the question to Manitoba, as provided- by the. constitution, ordering the authorities of that province to re- store the Separate school system in ex- iseence , prior to 1890. .The Manitoba Govern went•, with the concurrence of the Legislature of that province, has declined to do so, but at the saute time has intimated that if any retel griev- ances exist on the part of the minority they will he removed, although still insisting upon the ' nnrintenauce nn - impaired of the Public school system. The Dominion Government, as a con- sequence; has pledged itself before Par- liament and the country to introduce legislation at the next session of Par- liament provided that iu the meantime Manitoba does not make what is called a satisfactory settlement of the difficul- ty. Now, for my part, and I speak under a'full sense of the responsibility of my utterances, I have to say frank- ly, but firmly, that I favour the ruain- teu nice of a non-sectarian school sys- tem in Manitoba—(cheers)—and that if our constitution permitted it I avould advocate with the same fervour a simi- lar system throughout the Dominion. (Renewed cheers.) More than that, I have to say that •if occession should arise • to require a declaration tis this effect on my part, or rriy voice and vote in Parliament, 1 will not hesitate for one moment, to give effect, to the view which I have just announced. There is further this very important aspect of the case to, be considered, n 1 , namely, the difficulty of imposing a school system upon Manitoba ily means of Federal legislation. The con- stitution commits to the provinces ex- clusive jurisdiction in matters of edu- cation, and while it is true that certain reservations are made, that specified limitations are placed upon the powers of the provinces, there is no provision whereby effect can be giyeu to any conclusion Parliament might arrive at contrary to the views of the province. So that, apart altogether from the car- dinal principle of the question, there is a real and substancial difficulty in the way of details to be confronted which gives added weight to the objection to Parliamentary interference with Mani- toba. I propose, however, to eivait events rather than to anticipate what may never occur, nor do I intend to he led or entrapped into precipitate action upon the subject by any device, no matter from what quarter it miry come. Our duty, as it seems to roe, is to adhere resolutely to the main principles, to keep them always; in view, swerving neith- er to the right nor to the left, and in this position I trustthat I shall have not only the approbation of your- selves,. but the support of the great majority of the people of Canada. (Lond cheers.) CURREV7 TOPIUS. The Dominion Parliament is expect- ed to prorogue this week. Rev. Dr. Wild, in his address to the Orangemen at, London on Friday, de- clared that he did not favor or advo- cate a thild'perty. A cyclone seems to have struck the Grits in the British general elections. Up to yesterday 171 supporters of the Conservatives had been elected, and only 33 oppositionists. There should he some tneans of pre- venting every Torn, Dick, or Harry from selling or wearing an Orange badge on the 12th of July. The Loyal Orange Association is an incorporated nody and it seems reasonable to think that other than menbeis who wear a badge stn and should be prosecuted. Several instances came under our notice last Friday. As is sure to he the case at all large gatherings many non-members,go out for the dny to en- joy themselves. Some unauthorised money -sharks will be found in the crowd selling orange badges right and left. Orangernrem never buy them be- cause they eli•cttdy own and wear con- stitutional colors with the name, num- ber and location of their lodge. The conduct 0 n great many of these non- members, wearing colors, is such as to falsely bring disgrace upon the Order. Outsiders, always ready to point the finger of scorn at anything of the kind, declar•eto the world that such charac- ters are representatives of the Order, when in reality they have never beeu within the four walls of an Orange Lodge. Some steps should, if possible, be taken to prosecute parties guilty of Birch an offence. The root of the evil is the -proper place to start. Prevent the sale of unauthorized badges. Mr. W. Hawkshaw of St. Marys was visiting friends in Seaforth Last week. G. A. Deadtuan, of Bruseels, with 140 colonies of bees, has not taken a pound of honey yet nor does he expect to this year. The bees will probably have to I he fed to keep them over winter. Honey has advanced to 12ec per pound. in the shortage of fruit honey will he greatly missed. ' i'blllttc.» at..Ottaaraa The proceedings elm the .-Oonennene..:. a " nr$day were Pa doubt ;the hot- terit i,a many years, $opt) after the 200110 Sir' 4dolphe, 'Vamp, entered. .e watp net by deri• sive cheers from the,_O��pRposition, tkp(i counter cbedra by We 1vlbnistertalists. Then rani Me, Quiu)et, wll,y Wee shit- ilarlei! greeted, The orders of the dayhaving been called Mr. Girotittl,'d, o T+regttel Uartier and Mr. Laurier rosea to ether AIr. C/rirouard caught tbeGSpea er':t ;e 0 and - asked if in the event of act answer be- ing received Prone 114;14)it0a, legisiattion next session would teredial legislation be blocked, To this problem Mie Fost- er replied in 'the negative. Mr. Laurier then rise and asked for Ministerial explanations. This brought Mr. Foster again to his feet. The leader of the House related the Cabinet differences, and said the object of the 'Government was to reach ran amicathle settlement and to avoid Federal action, Mr. Augers had taken the ground that legislation should be introduced at once. This was regarded tis unwise, not only"because Manitoba ought to be urged to settle the quer• tion, but because of thedifi'rculty which the case involved. As at result Mr. Augers had assigned. The other Quebec Ministers, however, were sat- isfied and therefore retrained in the Cabinet. Sir Adolphe Carou and Mr. Ouimct added that the assurances they had received had convinced theca that they ought to continue with their col- leagues. The occasion gave 11Ir•. Laurier op- portunity to jibe the returning Minis- ters upon the 'onus they had pur- sued. Sir Charles II. Tupper met Me. Laur- ier's assult with a suggestion that the leader, who was dissatisfied with the attitude of the Quebec Ministers, should say where he himself stood on the question of a remedial law. j 'The invitation, strongly insisted upon as it was, elicted no reply. Mr. McCarthy followed with a con- demnation of any attempt, to force upon Manitoba the old hateful school law. The speech of the cloy, however, was by Mr. Dupont, an ofd -time Minis- terial supporter, who in vigorous French declaimed against the Govern- ment for not introducing remedial legislaation. Not less important was the deliver- ance. of Mr. Weldon, 0 Albert. Mr. Weldon has held that the subject should not be dealt with as at matter of Government policy, but' as an open question. He followed up this stand by announcing that for his part he could not and would not vote for n Separate school law. A like position was taken by Mr. Denison and Mr. McNeill, who, how- ever, held that the reference hack to Manitoba was statesmanlike and fair. The deelattations against remedial i., leryISldtlnCl distributed some • o f the French-Canadian Conservatives, and elicted strong remarks from theta. The debate, which was founded upon a motion to adjourn by Mr. Limier, was brought to a close at ten o'clock. When the division hells rang the in- terest which bad been centred on the proceedings all day was intensified. It was evident from the speeches of the French members that a bolt of more or less dimensions was it cer- tainty. Mr. Laurier's motion to adjourn, however, secured only seven French votes which, tinder ordinary circum- stances, would go with the Govern- ment. These were those of Messrs. Lepine, Joncas, Jeannotte, Dugas, Turcotte, Belley and Dupont. With this addition the Liberals polled 82 votes, as against 110 recorded by the Conservatives. Loud and long were the ,cheers that greeted the announce- ment. The total vote recorded was 198, in a House of 215. Eight Conser- vatives were absent, as follows :— Messrs. Barnard, Calvin, Carignan, LaRiviere, Mckeen, Sir Donald Smith. One of the absentees, Mr. Carignan, went home by the morning train and returned by the evening express, just ton late to record his vote. The Government majority, which was thirty-four, with the absentees, would reach forty-two. The Crops in Iluron. A MODEL FARM. A Globe correspondent has been travelling through this countyy, and gives in Saturday's paper (frorn Wing - ham) his impressions of crop prospects. Speak 1nggenerally the correspondent's predictions savor of the gloomy, declaring that he has travelled over a goodly portion of the county. He says :— Taking Goderich as lay first start- ing point, I found that in the immedi- ate vicinity north, south and east the drbuth had been severely felt. But south of the Township of Goderich, that is, in the southern section of the comity, there was much improvement, I had the gond fortune to meet four or five gentlemen who luc.d just returned from a driving tour of some 45 miles round the neighboring townships, which they had taken for the express purpose of ascertaining what the prospect -9 were, and then report may be taken as an accurate and well -con- sidered statement. Of course, they varied slightly in detail. These four or five gentlernen place fall wheat at from 60 to 65 per cent. of an average crop; spring wheat at one- third ; barley and oats thesame; peas are good; hay scarcely a third of an average ; corn will be a fair crop ; roots, as far; as can be judged at present, will be good. Another of the party gives a march more promisin r report, all agreeing to what is well known, that pastures are in a bad state for want of rain. A FRUIT GROWER'S REPORT. I also had at talk with an extensive fruit grower in Goderich as to the out- look in his particular line. The im- portance of the fruit crop in this county may he understood when I mention that a full crop of apples means a million barrels, and the revenue to the county in the manufac- ture of barrels rand- in labor is in the neighborhood of $100,000. My inform- ant told ins that this year apples aceta very poor crnp,:many varieties being a complete failure. Plums are scarcely fair, but the small fruit harvest has been and is linod. With such a condi- tion of affairs as this is, is it to be wondered at that the whole country side is praying for rain ? Theyq had a slight shower on Dominion Day, but Weak, Tired, Nervous Wenen, who seem to be all worn out, will find in purified blood, made rich and healthy by Hood's Sarsapa- rilla, permanent relief and strength. The following is from a well known nurse: " I have suffered for years with female complaints and kidney troubles and I. have had a great deal of medial advice during that time, but have receives littler. or no benefit. A friend advised me to take Hood's Sarsaparilla and I began to use it, together with Hood's Phis. I have real» ized more benefit from these medicines than from anything else I bave ever taken. From my personal experience I believe Hood's Sarsaparilla to be a most complete blood purifier." MRS. O. CROMPTON, 71 Cumberland St., Toronto, Ontario. Hood's Sarsaparilla Is the' Only True Blood Purifier Prominently in the public eye today. Hood's Pills is cosy to buy, easy to take, easy In effect, 250, • hardly enough to lay the duet, and this has practically been the only fall sincespruag. Their only hope now is for a good wet fall, and it this is in store for thein it will at least help the cattle through, if nothing else. Incidentally, in passing through the county there are other evidences of the phenomenal dryness apparent. Bush fires. for instance, are raging i11 var- ious parts, though at present they have not become serious enough to rause alnrrn, and the Maitland River, .enter- ing the lake rat Goderich, is so shallow that it can he waded through at al'uost any point, whereas in its nnrutal con- dition it is quite a respectable stream. THE FAIR FART. Leaving Goderich I doubled hack to, Clinton before striking north to this town. and I was glad I did, for it gave me an opportunity to visit the farm iof Mr. James Fair, and that visit has been the bright spot in lay day's perce rl t- tions. Mr. Fair is known far andrwide not only as the senior proprietor of the mills in the busy Town of Clinton, • but also. as a model, up-to-date farmer. His domain extends over 250 acres of some of the finest tolling land one would wish to see, and in walking through his well -kept fields one could scarcely realize that the general condi- tion of the crops through tate country was as I have described it. For in- stance he painted out to me a sixteen - acre. field from which hast week he carried 30 loads of hay, whereas a load an acre is considered exceptionally gond this season, and in too many cases at load to five or six acres is all that has been got, and I did hear of ono instance, though I hope it was unique. where at single load vas 1 he yield of thirteen acres. Of other crops on the Fair homestead I noted some splendid fall wheat, fairly long in the str•tity and well filled nut, to which the sickle will he put next week, and more than one field of barley we passed which was equal to anything that cual.I he desired, strong, full and Healthy. It ton will be ready to harvest next week. Spring wheat looked well and was heading out satisfactorily, and peas were ns good as the hest. As a substi- tute for hay as cattle feed Mr. Fair has several acres sown with peas and oats mixed, which will be cnt green and stacked. Oats on this farm were vari- able, some being very good and others quite short in the straw, almost too short, in fart, to harvest with the binder. The only crop which did not look well here was a field of turnips, which made a very indifferert appear- ance, but even these may yet conte on with a few good drenching showers. THE EXPLANATION. It may be asked why such a differ- ence was Lound in this one faun to those around. The secret undoubtedly is that the owner bus cared for his hand consistenly season by season, treating it generously with manureand thereby storing up a, supply of nourishment which has stood it in good stead in t•iine of need. I Would not have it nnllerstood that there are ne other farms as gond as this. Doubtless there are many, hut it must he that there are too, ninny of another class in which the farmers are content, to take all they can out of their land and neglect. to feed it that it may continue rich and fertile. On leaving Clinton an hour or so before sundown we first encounter- ed the rain, for although it has looked lowering and threatening rain all over to -day, the probabilities of the morn- ing, "Local showers in northern por- tions," have so far been decidedly local. Midway between Clinton and this town 1 stayed a few minutes for a chat with a Belgrave fernier, and 'found him in fairly good spirits. His hay, he said, was about a third bf a crop, barley good, oats only Lair. Of spring wheat he had none, fall wheat fair, but he concluded if this rain will only keep up a couple of days it will double the • crops. Three Great Wonders. dlr. Editor. DEAR Sin. --You have donhtless heard that the world contains three awful big wonders, and a great deal of speculation arises a; to what they tire. Ah, iris 1 I have solved the problem, also where they exist, viz: in the Dominion• of Canada, particularly in the County of Huron. -1st—There is Oliver Mowat, a man noted for integr- ity and truth; but, alas, he is very much like the Irishman, in Chas. Read's works, who showed his unduti- ful sons the gold, but, they never hand- led the same. Oliver shows us poor decluded Clintonians (by promise) the glittering wealth, but withholds the same from our passion.

Truly yours, A GENTLE OBSERVER. Clinton, July 15th, 1895. Combined Opinion. Editor News -Record. SIR,—It is not very often I ask for Space in THE NEWS -Become because your utterances harmonize with my own so well. I must, however, take brief exception to the remarks of "In- dividual Opinion" re the senior judge- ship of Huron. He says:—"Ha,! me- thinks I hear some say he is a Roman Catholic 1 Admitted. Is a man to be persecuted for conscience sake? Even extreme Orangemen will denounce such accursed doctrine quite as strong- ly as the immortal William did." "In- dividunl Opinion" roust have a peculiar idea or Orangeisrn when he puts in print so many misleading statements. Members of the Order cannot. persecute any man for conscience sake and the fact that Judge Doyle was elevated to the bench by Sir John Macdonald, an Orangeman, goes to show that the base insinuation is quite uncalled for. His- tory does not bear out "Individual Opinion," for the immortal William was not only tolerant, but broad and liberal -minded. That Judge Doyle can perform the work of two judges is a matter for conjecture. Reading be- tween the lines of your correspondent ono might reasonably carne to the con- clusion that, he is anxious to set creed against creed for the pur- pose of securing a political appoint- ment for a gentleman of the Ro- man Catholic faith. No one can object to Judge Doyle being a Roman Catho- lic, and no one does. There should be no experimenting with the Ontario Government. There has been ton much of that sort of thing in the past. COMBINED OPINION. A Correction. Editor Nears -Record. Sir, --Permit me to refer to the statement made by Rey. Dr. Mc- Donald, of Seaforth, on the 12th itiet., that the Rev. George Walker of the Siege of Derry fame was a Presbyter- ian minister. if he was a Presbyter- ian, he must have renounced that church, for he was nominated by Bing William to the bishopric of Derry, and, accepted the nomination, but was un- fortunately killed in battle before he took actual possession of the honor ten- dered him. As a Presbyterian bishop of Derry would seem a somewhat in- congruous position, I feel sure Dr. Mc• Donald world as readily concede the truth of the facts noted, as I would be unwilling to detract from the Presby- terianc in the ruatter of the warlike parson of Derry.

To the Editor of The News -Record. DEAR Sia,—I notice that Bro. Craw- ford Ross refused to allow D'Alton Mc- Carthy to speak at the Orange demon- stration at Ottawa on the 12th, giving as the reason that none but Orangemen would be allowed to speak. This is as it should he. At Seaforth i heard a speaker of the cloth, not an Orange- man, in effect ask the brethren not to have confidence in our Grand Master— y man we have always found true and who hits the oft -expressed ccntidence of his brethren throughout the world. Hereafter no person not a member of the Order should be invited or allowed to speak at an Orange celebration. The best interests of the Association demand this. Yours truly, Seaforth, July 13.

Mr. Thos Walker has completed the stone work under Mr Thos. O'Btien's barn. Haying is something theast in ,this section. The average yieldpwas about at ton per acre. Mr. Plumsteel of the London Road commenced harvest on Monday. The wheat crop is neatly ripe and we think that it will average as good as that of other years. The rain on Monday will freshen up everything and we think that to take the county over, this township will hold its own for crops.
