The concert in the evening was, however the drawing card. The hall was fairly packed and the andience was re- warded by a fine representation of “The Confederate Spy” by the lo«al Crusader Dramatic Co.

Rev Mr Maine, of Danville, Que, who was expected to hold services in the Con- gregational church here this week, was unavoidably detained on acconnt of ill- hearth.

THE CORNER Things are quiet hero now. I ^yaAalt St.

Raphaels picnic and I will write about that. A very large tent for its size gave its simple shelter to about five hundr^ people at a time. And these five hundred people lined up along the rustic tahles.and ate to their fiear-t*s content. At the time of which I write there were four hundred and ninety- nine others.and myself and we were placed in sections of about thirty-throe and a third to each waiter. In my section the third was represented by a small boy, who —while waiting for the first one of nine helps of turkey of which he easily dis- posed—wired into two cakes that had the misfortune of being placed before him. The cakes wore cut into small wedge shaped pieces which seemed to have boon measured toorder for his mouth.He opened his mouth just enough to admit the thin edge and while the piece was slowly drawn from view by aome invisible force, ho Uimself was selecting another piece. Ry the time the waiter came and plaçpd some turkey before him, the two cftkes were worth about seventeen cents 01^ ihe dollar. As I said before, ho had nine helps of turkey, somo of which, l>p got from the waiter and some from, the table, and always took a nip of cak.0 between. A ludiclous wish came into my miud while I was watching him.I wish- ed that a larger quantity of baking powder had been put in tKe cakes so that they would rise from the table. The dinner was good. Some of the minor elements of it were in dishes that did not belong to them. For instance, the cream was in a dark square vessel that made me feel as if I had broken my pledge when I took aome cream from it, but the latter was just ns pure and sweet as that in a cut glass jug on the next table. The music was fascinating, charming, inspiring, all that violin music of the higest order should be ; tbe day wc^ lovely, and the crowd a lot of haçpy, liealthy and honest people sneh, aft coiild really enjoy this simple pleasq.;;^. A cou- spicuous feature of thi^, number of nice girk prefteotfri Uiefr vjyrious displays of all.-wing hftbilmaeiits. Many of them wçre xeev so young they had noli yet com.moncgd- to eqjUtYocate in tfiefr spoccl\, to iwse their charming futures, fov effect, aud practice the sundry wiles of older maidens instead of their natural ways.

HOME FROM THE BATTLE, i Tlie 59(]i a Credit to Glengarry and

Stormout,

{From our xcar' correspondent). The camp is over—tho sham battle has

been fonght aud the lions’ cobs have re- turned home. The last-few days at Niaga- ra camp were full of interest and bard work. Preliminary to the sham battle of Thursday, the divisions wero instructed by their Brigadiers in attack and defense exercises. On Wednesday, General Hutt- on inspected the forces and the 59,th Batt- lion was signally lucky in receiving from tho General hia warmest compliments. The 59th is all right. Other battalions fared less fortunately and some were even reprimanded. Tho 69th to day is a batta- lion of volunteers which has no superior in any other rural battalion in the country. The General said it was one of the finest he had seen since his arrival in this coun- try. This is very satisfactory and No. 3 Company having acquitted themselves superior in physique, drills, and order* and regularity ia camp, we tako our hats off to No. 3. Ou Thursday the 59th was detailed to occupy tho famous Queenston Heights and defend same against an invad- ing army, seven times its strength. They marched out of camp at an early hour and marched seven mites to take up their posi- tion at the foot of the heights. No. 3 Co to which your war correspondent was attached,was detailed to occupy an orchard and Capt. Macdonald was given tbe necessary instructions to watch for the approach of the enemy and defend hia position. As No. 3 hid themselves among the apple and pear trees upon the knoll allotted to them, the scene before their eyes was one which will ever remain fast in their memory. Far away to the north over the valley of the Niagara peninsula stretched a country of orchards. Field after field of beautiful grape vines and peach trees succeeded one another as far as the eye could reach. Trees laden witn beautiful ripe English cherries enlivened the universal green with their rich red clusters of ripe fruit while here and there the dark green of the pear trees and plum trees ftddi-d to the beauty of the scenery. Our boys, used to tho graceful maple could scarce reatiz 1 that the miles of fruit coun- try at their feet was tho same province that comprised Glengarry. Beyond the orchards along the northern horizi>n could be seen the broad expanse of Lakp Ontario while on thefr right rolled the broad, deep Niagara Rivof- Immediately adjacent to, an^ alongside of this river was the old village of (Queenstown while on the oppo- site shore wae tbe American village of Lewiston. It was from this latter place that the Americans crossed in XOHdk landed their forces at Queeu3towp,a>>d immediate- ly ocenpied the freighta. Near to, and within sigfit o| Nou Co. was the spot

tb% brave Brock fell pierced by a hftlleL A large stone marks the spot while Upon the heights, his body is laid beneath the famous monument erected by a gi'ateful country in memory ihiabrave command- er and the heroes who died ia defense of Oftuada of ours. These, and many Huoh thoughts occupied the minds of the 59ih on this day while anxiously awaiting the appearanoo of the supposed enemy. After a while a blink of red color in the distance or the glint of an ofiicer’s scabbard in the sunshine,be tokened the ap|^aach of the foe. Excitement heoftme keen when the enemy boldly advanced through and under oo\e? of the foliage of the orchards, ^e^ eyes watched their approach, how- ever, and when they had reached within lOdO yard» of the foot hills, the 59th poured volley after volley into the appro-» aching foe. Emboldened by numbers tho enemy could not be checked,^ and No. 3 aud tbe othei^. epmpaniea had to retreat up the fiej^hta. When half way up a very çj,ev^ fiank movement was made by the enemy aud in so doing captured the ammunition waggon of tbe 59th Battalion. This was a great misfortune to us and wa» made still more humiliating when we discovered that the 42nd, under Col. Sam Hughes, had captured, ewtr Goramauding Officer, Major Baber. A* further retreat was in order^ and on arriving at the monu- ment wcr« surprised to find the enatây in possession. After dne consufrftUott with his staff, Col. Otter decided the battle in favor of tho attftQfiera and everybody regaled then\ftelves with something to eat. Hundreds of tourists had arrived at ihe monument and the fine grounds surround- ing the monument was a beautiful sight. The ladies in their beautiful summer cos- tumes added & peaceful mixture to the soldiers m red and green. After luncheon and a good rest the whole of the * forces inarched back to camp. On arriving in camp, orders were found awaiting tho 59tb to the effect, that they were to embark for home, at nine o’clock that eame evening. This gave two hours W supper and preparation. The Columbian \y^ boarded at eleven o’cloofr and, steamed awav across the lake for the oast. The voyago across the lake, down the river, passing.the lOOC) Islands en route, was an enjoyable trip. Cornwall was reached about nine o’clock on Friday evening and Na 3, No. 6 and No. 4 companies at once left by special freight train for home. Before dispersing in Cornwall, cheers wwe given for tho Commanding Officer and the various officers, and Her Majesty the Queen. And this ended the most enjoyable aud at the same time the most instructive camp over held in Ontario. Your war correspondent’s duties are done.

The Colonel’s remarks although brief wero much appreci- ated, and he left the car amid the cheers of his military friends from the old county of Glengarry.

cert in the Evening.

Beautiful weather, an energetic commit- tee and a good list of attractions, all com- bined to make the celebration at Maxville 00 July 1st, a highly successful event. Flags and banting were used to good ad- vantage by the citizens, the Union Jack being very mnch in, evidence. At eleven o’clock the street para<le under the direc- tion of W. N. Dauley, Marshall, mounted on a grey charger, took place. First came the Hogansburg Indian Cornet Band dis- coursing sweet music, and who, tbronghout the whqle.day added very materially to the entertainment. Next came the bicyclists with decorated wheels, presenting a very pleaifing appoirance, those were followed by several floats representing the social, political and industrial life cf our people. The carriage containing the Bye Town Coons attracted parlioular attention. Tho performance on tho exhibition grouads began at one p.rn. The programme con- sisted of instrumental music by the band, vocal and instrumental music by Harper Bros, negro specialties, slack wire perform- ance and several atbletio contests. Owing to the non-appearance of ihe Elm lacrosse team,, a match was arranged between two of the local teams, assisted by several of the Alexandria players. Although tho game was an impromptu affair it proved to be quite exciting, both teams putting np good lacrosse.

Throughout tho ontire evening the best of order was pre- served and the several players woa hearty rounds of applause in their person- ifying of the different characters, which was cleverly done by each and all of the performers. The autUenoe was loud in its praise of the evening’s performance and the ^veml members of the company were ccvigratulated on their success, all aoknow- ledgiug that Maxvillo has aome first class dramatic talent. Tbe A.O.U.'W., under whose auspices the company appeared, will net a neat little sum as a result. During tbe evening Prof. McGregor aud tbe Hog- ansburg orchestra rendered a number of vocal and iastrumontal selections in a very pleasing manner.Prof.McGregor was accom- panied by his niece, a daughter of J. M. McGregor, Athol, who, despite her' youth, being about seven years of age, displayed rare musical ability. After the nsoal manager’s duties had been performed by J>. A. McArthur, the singing of tho Nation- al Anthem brought this very successlul evuning to a close.

BATTALION AT CORNWALL

The citizens of thq. historic town of Cornwall were on thaqiui vive on the even- ing of Friday, the Sîrth ult., when the in- formation rcaoltiaed them, that the 59th Battalion we^ oh their way home, on board of tl^. Steamer Columbian, from the front, at' Niagara they had been undei; canvas performing their annual military duties. They had not long to wait, as the musical notes of the Citizens’ Band were heard vibrating the air, and tbe steamer hove in sight. All repaired to the landing aud extended a hearty welcome, at the return of Canada's defend- ers. Notwithstanding the hurried manner in which they wore oompollod to break up camp and prepare for homo, owing to a desire on the part of tho authorities that they should reach their destination before Dominion Day. and the fatigue occasioned by tho long trip from Niagara, hotK officers and men look remarkably welL

On leaving tho boat they; weno at once formed in military ordeCwand marched up Pitt street, tbe banA dispensing choice strains, and amid the- cheering of their friends, rendered, scene exciting and pleasing in extreme. Those in the immediate neighborhood of the town soon went to their respective homes, while three ccjs^panies. that from Williamstown, Mûcesj Creek and Alexandria, repaired to the-station headed by two Highland pipers, Reimeth MeX/eod, of Laggan, who stands 6, ft. 4 in., and Neil XL McLeod, of Alex- andria, both of whom accompanied Co.

It was generally remarked hea'o, that No. 3 CoD'.pany is a credit to the force,and that the members composing it, both officers aud men, are worthy specimens of the Glengarry people from whom the-y sprang.

Hosplta.1 Treatment Failed to Bene- fit Him and His Life Was Despair- ed Of—Again Well and Strong.

From the Belleville Sun.

A reporter of the Belleville Sun recently had an opportunity to investigate a cure mode through the use of Dr Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People which is little short of miraculous. Tho subject of tho cure is Mr William H Conklin, a well* known farmer who lives in Ameliasburg i^ownship Prince Edward county. When tho reporter drove over to see Mr Conklin he was under the impression, from what he had heard of th8caso,that he wonldüudaxiartiâl invalid, but to his surpri-ie found a stalwart, robust man of six feet, actively engaged unload- ing logs from a sleigh. Ou making known the object of his visit the reporter was invited into the house and Mr. Conklin gave his story as follow.s :—

You oati see for yourself that my con- dition ia now one of good health, and yet I have been at death’s door. A year ago Iasi summer 1 injurod my hand, with tho result that blood poisoning set in. A doctor was called in and the usual treat- ment given and-' the hand apparently got well and 1 started to work. It soon turned out, however, that tho poison had not been entirely got rid of and it spread through my whole system. Tho doctor was again called in, but looking upon my case as critical, advised me to go to tho hospital at Belleville. This I did atid ro- maiued there throughout tbe mofitb of October, 1897. My coudition was des- perate, and as I was not makii^ gresa toward recovery, I may say that I gave my case up as hopâiât^. Be- lieving that I could not recover, I a^sd to be taken home. I then tried various treatments with no better results. I coufd not walk without help, and I was donb’ed up like a jack knife. At this stage I was advised to tty Dr. Williams’ Piuk Pills,, and sent for half a dozen boxes. After usiug the first half dozen my appitite re- turned aud night sweats which had been the bane of my sleeping hours deserted me. Knowing that tho pills wero helpiog me I sent for a farther supply. Meantime a swelling came in my hip, which finally broke, and from that on my progress was more rapid and I am ag.sin us sound as ever, and able to do a d ly’s work with any 000. I can only add that Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills brought me to iny present state of good health and so long as I live I sball praise tho remedy that brought me back from the verge of the grave.

THE GLENGARRY NEWS, ALEXANDRIA, ONT., JULY 7, 1899.

®Lngarry jRetos. A. G. F. MACDONALD, EDITOR.

CORItUPTlON IN POLITICS. I

“Political rottenness” mast have been the verdict of every decent elector who follow-

ed closely, the proceedings of the recent ; trial of the protest against the election .of

Mr. MacNisfa, the Liberal representative for West Elgin in the Ontario Legislatare, and who pernsed the statement admitting gross irregnlarities which was signed by Mr. MacNish and his coansel.

This statement was of a most startling nature, showing.that from start to finish, corruption ruled supreme, and that, on a very large scale. À great number of per-

sons were sent into the constituency, wire pollers and political “suckers,” of the

most despicable kind, evidently carrying instructions to stop at nothing to secure the return of the Liberal candidate. A rushing business was done in the purchase

of votes : there were grave irregularities connected with the return • of the ballot boxes, and the counting of the ballots

thereat. Legitimate voters were personat- ed at the polling booths by scallaways brought in for that special purpose, and

^ thus deprived of the right of exercising their franchise.

The declared number of votes for Mr.Mac- KUh was largely in excess of the number of bona fide votes cast for him ; ballots

were, in some nefarious and corrupt man- ner, manipulated iu favor of MacNish and

—what not. With such an admission over the signa-

tures of the Liberal candidate and his coansel, wo cannot but feel that such wholsale work of corruption, was planned and systematically worked from outside by the party machine. Mr. MacNish may not have been aware of the methods being em->

ployed to secure his return, but sdeh an excuse cannot be forthcoming or accepted from the local leaders, that connived and fongbt side by side With the heelers and tricksters, who swarmed the constitnency, oorrnptiog strange electors to such a de-

gree as to cast a cloud on the Liberal party in Ontario.

The election law has been defied and now it is the duty of the government to

make an example of those who fiagrantly broke it. no matter what it may cost from a party standpoint.

The ttotfinw come when the two politic- ^ y parüae fboald use every effort to pu^'^c-

^eorro{4l^. Sn3l&> employ every means i[:^^^^’eeoare an honest opimon at the hands

SM' «te«hnftte ' JT.. We are not surprised to see the Conser-

vative press uevouug columns to the West Elgin election case, they are but doing their duty in showing up the corrupt acts, in their disgusting nakedness. Yet we

cannot but wonder that these very same jonmaU, our contemporary, the ‘Glengar- rian,' among the number, in days gone by, when just as corrupt methods as those employed recently in West Elgin, were

brought into play in the interests of the Gonsorvative candidates, with the tacit approval of Conservative leaders, and these journale. We have read of the Conserva- tive plugger, manipalator and personator, of the wholesale bribery of constituency after constituency by Conservative “heel- ers,” suckers and wire pullers, all of which were allowed to pass without comment by these new preachers of political morality.

Have these canters from house tops for- gotten their party’s conspiracy to defeat the Mowat administration in 1884 by bribing members of the Legislatare with

money and with promises of Federal offices? Have they forgotten the election

frands employed in 1887 which deprived George G. King, the Liberal Candidate for

the Commons iu Queeus, N.B., of his seat ? What about the Langovin and Caron cases, whereby the general election for the Federal House was in 1887, car- ried by the syatomatio boodle of large sums of money, virtually taken from the'Dominion treasuary ? Have they forgotten that the election fund for 22 oonstitueuces in Qiebec Pro-

vince alone, reached the magnificent sum of 9112,000 ? What about the ballot stuff- ing frauds in South Grey io 1891 ? Is

that a thing of the past also ? It was not the Grit party machine that deliberately planned the campaign of bribery and fraud carried on during the bye elections of 1892. Again, who manipulated the political cards whereby wholesale personation was the rule in the Winnipeg bye-election held in

1898 ? but our Tory friends. In 1996, were not the elections in Manitoba marked by a gigantic scheme of ballot staffing, carefully schemed and operated by Conservatives ? Ballot stuffing occurred the same year in different constituencies througboutOntario,

to secure the return of Conservative can- didates. And not later than last Septem- ber, Mr. Calder, one of Mr. Whitney's lieutenants, was un-seated for bribery,

practiced syslematioaUy and upon a large scale. While many other acts of corrup- tion done in the interests of the Conserva-

tive party, might bo recalled, we have touched on sufficient to show that the methods employed In the tVest Elgin election in the interest of Mr. MaoNisb, Liberal, were strangely similar to those put forth in days gone by to secure the return of Conservative candidates. We do not condone in one the case and condemn in the other, not at all. We unhesitatingly declare this too evident system of fraud and corruption countenanced by the two political parties as a disgrace to Canadian politics, and believe that it is high time that a great big effort be made, by Grit and Tory alike, towards purifying election con- tests. Let us rise above suob disgraceful things, ns the bartering in votes, ballot stuffing, the personation of electors, et al. and go in for a clean square fight, laying ... ^

j before the electorate our respective cases, leaving them to judge the same in an im- partial manner, free from the taint of bribery and corruption.

Then, and then only, can we talk purity of elections.

And to secure this end we would ask our contemporary, the ‘Glengarrian’, to join with ns iu unhesitatingly condemning the

corrupt tactics pursued iu this very county in the not distant past. Surely they were not blind, unless purposely so, to the bribery and corruption that was rampant in 1891, to such a degree that men holding a high head among the Conservative party,

were compelled to seek refuge under the Stars and Stripes, at the city of Ogdens- burg, or in the wig-wams of the St. Regis Reservation.

THE GROWING TIME

This is already a worn expression, but one which is not likely to grow wearying so long as its meaning is renewed from day to day by the expansion of our commerce and industry along new lines. The recent- ly organized American paper-pulp trust is about to invest largely of its 950,000,000 capital in developing this important part of our forest wealth. Our spruce forests, extending over the Maritime Provinces, Quebec, Labrador, northern and eastern Ontario and around Hudson Bay, have acquired a new commercial importance by modern processes of paper manufacture. The comparative scarcity of spruce in other wood.producing countries gives the Dominion an exceptional advantage, and now the time is at hand for improving onr opportunities. The desirability of estab- lishing pulp mills on an extensive scale has been decided by the only competent author- ity, the men with money to invest in the enterprise. The American syndicate which has lately come into the field is known to represent about 910,000,000 capital, and it is regarded as the Canadian branch of the paper-pulp trust. Its agents have spent about 91,8.50,000 in purchasing spruce limits in the Gaspo peninsula and along the south shore of the St. Lawrence. En- gineers are already at work locating the ground for two pulp mills which will cost 91,090,000 each and have a capacity of 600 tons a day. It is estimated that within a few weeks some 1,500 men will be employ- ed in the work of construction and in get- ting out pulp-wood. This is a gigantic enterprise, proportioned to the wealth of material the Dominion has to supply, and it rests on the substantial basis of business enterprise, not leaning on artificial props or Hying by the aid of obstructions.

The news of this great enterprise, sup- plementing the pulp manufacture already established, follows close after the organi- zation of the great Dominion Iron & Steei-Ck>mpany. This has been established

"with headquarters at Sydney, C.B., and its capital is 820,000,000. Mr. H. M. Whitney, of Boston, is the moving spirit in the enter- prise. He has already manifested his cap- acity for great undertakings in developing the coal mines of Nova Scotia, and the organization of the new company is an expansion of that development. A na- tural outlet for the coal is found in the great iron deposits adjacent, and the proximity of iron and coal, with excellent shipping facilities, afford an opportunity for iron and steel production not surpass- ed on the continent. Mr. Whitney has been quick to see the double opportunity, and under his energetic management the new smelting works will soon give Canada a standing among the iron and steel pro- ducing countries. The abundant raw material has brought the needed capital and enterprise. The recent opening of the great iron mines in Minnesota, with rich ore, exceptionally favorable for mining operations, has been regarded in many quarters as a menaça to Britain’s suprem- acy in iron production. The distributi<>n of nature’s gifts must decide the course of industry, which can bé but little affected by legislative interference. But iu the Maritime Provinces we have all the ad- vantages of contiguous coal and iron deposits with ocean transportation.

The announcement that the iron bonuses would diminish and be withdrawn in 1907 seems to have had the effect of stimulating rather than disconraging this line of enter- prise. Toronto’s trade and shipping con- nections have attracted the attention of intending investors, and negotiations are in progress for the establishment of a smelter as one of the city’s many industries. It has been ascertained that with favorable consideration by the railway corporations this could be made a commercial success. In the rush of western developement, which has absorbed attention daring the past few years, we have been inclined to forget that in older Canada our stores of mineral and forest wealth are still unsur- passed outside the Dominion. But the keen enterprise of American and Canadian capitalists has not overlooked our oppor- tunities for investment, and the result is an era of development that has not suf- fered in the east through expansion in the west. Clearly it is Canada’s turn now. From Cape Breton to the Yukon, ali over the great mountain Province of British Columbia, io every opened section of the Territories, throughout the Prairie Pro- vince and in every part of older Canada there is the same story of exceptional prosperity. It is fortunate for this age and generation that our heritage has not been frittered away in impatient schemes of premature development, and this experience of to-day emphasizes the common admoni- tion to'keep our wealth till it is waq^cd.— The ‘Globe.’

ou Suturdur.

Goderich, Ont., July 8.—About 7 o’clock on Saturday evening Katie Mo- Lean, aged 9, daughter of Mr. John McLean of this town, was missed froip her homo. Not having been seen for two hours, and, ns there was a large water tank nearby that was being filled up, a neighbor looked in and saw the ohlld's hat fioating on tho water. As there was considerable water in the tank and throe loads of dirt had been dumped In after tho child was supposed to have fallen In, the steam firo engine was taken to the spot, the water pumped out, and a few minutes afterwards ^e little one was found a few Inches under the dirt. The body was laid on tho road and presented a pitiable sight, as It was almost encased in mud. The coroner. Dr. J. W. Holmes, who was pro.^ent, decided that an inquest was necessary, and the same will be con- tinued on Monday or Tuesday. The tank Is an old one that was used for firo pur- poses before tho town had waterworks. It was covered with long logs about à foot In diameter, some of which had been re- moved to allow the filling up, and it'was through the opening thus made that thd little one must have fallen. There were a great many people present when tho body was found and there was much comment about the opening into the well being left unguarded during the filllng- In process.

TESTIMONIAL. To whom it ma5- concern

This is to certify that it has been uecessan- for me to wear spectacles for the last twenty- si.v years, and during that time I have broken and" lost many pairs. On account of my eyes being very weak I consulted some of the bes* city opticians of the United States and Canada, paying as high as por pair for glasses. One vear ago I required a new pair and decided to give Mr. McLeister, Chemist and Optician, of Alexandria, a trial, the result was that he fitted mo with the best pair of spectacles 1 have ever bad, and I speak from cx^wricncc as I have been wearing his glasses for a year and can read for hours by lamplight witliout the slightest trouble. My eyes, being completely rested, are growing stronger, and I have much pleasure in recom- mending Mr. McLeister to anyone requiring properly fitting spectacles.

Tint UODNTAl.f MBOREP.

OTTAWA, duly 3.—Bpeakiag from an claber ite but by no means skillfully pre- pared brief. Sir Ilibbert Tapper has at length delivered his much heralded second attack against the Minister of the luterior upon the alleged mismanagement and in* competanoe of that department in the administration of the Yukon district. But

(bis desperate pursuit of Mr. Sifton has ignomioiously failed in its object,, much to

the disgust and chagrin of the Tappers who have sadly underrated the ability and re- source of the Minister. To saocessfully admiolster a departmeut iu the govern- ment of Canada, like that of the Depart- ment of the Interior, requires a man of no mediocre ability, particularly at this time when there are added to the ordinary business devolving upon that department the increasingly onerous and difficult duties connected with the administration of tbè Yukon. The Tappers are fully alive to this fact and no doubt imagined that in Mr. Sifton they had a weak subject with which to contend, and no one probably more susceptible to their attacks in the Liberal cabinet than he. They seem io have encountered, however, something like a good-sized sueig iu sailing into the Minister of the Interior.

ID respect to Mr. Sifton’s able defence

••••unsL the charges fulminated by the “’‘"me prei&ftBliBiiibï the faoteip^wpIÿ'Éo Ih'e

charges which Sir Hibbert Tapper oa two occasions has insinuated npoa the floor of parliumeut hut which he dare not reiterate wUliont the preoiucts of the House because

% he well knows how iiu(K>Bsible of proof they are.wAH mad«<in an emmontiy able and com- prihcnbive manner. The facts he adduced were eloquent of the success and ability with which be has discharged the duties of bis department and were a complete refutation of the empty charges advanced by Sir Hibbert in his nine hours’ of labor last week.

In bis speéch at Sherbrooke, on the 24th of May,the leader of the Opposition declar- ed that within a few days thereafter his son would, from bis place in parliament, prefer definite charges against Yukon officials and th-at these charges would be of such a character that the Qovernmeut would be forced to acoede to the demand of the Opposition for a judicial inquiry, ^ut Sir Hibtt^^s indictment oohtained nothing new, the charges it recited were about unsnbstantial asser- tions previously uttered. These charges were not brought for the purroee of punish- ing official wrong doiag in the Yukon. It was not that laudable purpose which prompted the Tappers in their desperate onslaughts against the Minister of the Interior. Their confessed object was to bring discredit upon the government itself by the absurd attempt to make the Min- istry responsible for the malfeasance, if any, of their subordinates in the Ynkon.

Sir Hibbert admitted this fact when he made the following aUtemeiU : mea

agUost whom I bring the braot of my charge sit opposite to me. The men who are in trial in this matter, so far as they can be on trial, arc the men on tho Treasury benches.” This is the main and predetermined purpose which animated tho Tappers iu their vain and, as the result has shown, prohtless pursuit of Mr. SKton. The Sire had confidently boasted that the son would formulaté such an indictment of maladministration in the Yukon country that it would result in retiring tho lion. Mr. Sifton from office if not into private life. To most people the denouement of this matter as it has turned out would have been humiliating iu the extreme, bat with the Tappers it is otherwise. With much of dramatic accompaniment the playing out of ihe Yukon Act, which they intended to have been intensely tragic in its con- clusion, has resulted in a ridiculous farce- comedy endiog.

All this political bye-play, however, is likely to be, and no doubt has been, mis- apprehended by the outside woild. The people of this country are not liable to be led far astray by the many subterfuges and devions ways which form the main spring of Tory politics. They are fashioned to deceive the unwary but the country baa learned by the experience of latter years, to what extent to credit tho representations coming from that source, under the leader- ship of the notorious schemers who guide the destinies of the Tory party just now. The interests of the Dominion are no doubt injuriously affected by the unpatriotic attitude of the opposition in respect to the Yukon administration, and by the pro- minence and air of probability which they have given these highly-colored and ex- agerated reports emanating from the Yukon. But it is some satisfaction to know that if these baseless fabrications have gained undue notoriety at home or abroad they will be met hereafter and nulliâed by the complete and unassailable

refaction of them by the Minister of the Interion.

It needs no argoment to show the fallacy bontmiHon that the government

shonlû bo held responsible for possible wrong-dou\g-of officials whose fltness and integrity were unqne'stlôDô^t and whose qualifications were considered sufficient at the time of their appointment to office. If they subsequently erred, their guilt could not possibly be laid upon the Minister whose contidenco they may have abused. It is a fact also that 'vhen suspicion began to breath abroad that crooked work was being done at Dawson, Mr. Sifton took im- mediate steps to purge the country of nny- thiug like corrupt officialdom. In rpite of energetic efforts to prevent fradulent practices on the part of government offi- cers and inspire cou&dence in the adminis- tration of tho Yukon, which the Minister of the Interior has put forth, Sir Hiblert, iu bis aoxi:.ty to bring discredit iu some way upon the government, brings down to parliament a loDg recital of empty insinua- tions and statements, which took an hour and a quarter to read, but which contained no definite charge and laid no specific accusation that would justify the govern- ment in proceeding to the enormous ex- pense of instituting a judicial investigation into the subjects referred to by Sir Hibbert. From the very nature of his charges, Sir Hibbert knew that tho government would not agree to his demand and a refusal is what ho expected and best suited bis pur-

Sir Hibbert is striving hard to make himself an indi^pcnsiblo element in the Tory party. There.is a strong probability, however, that he will fail iu his oudeAvor ; and the likelihood of his obtaining a repre- sentation in tho next p.xrliament is not at all certain. He is fully aware of the fact that Nova Scotia is surfeited with Tupper- ism and wants no more of it, and it is said that he is now making a determined effort to secure for the future a seat from the province of bis adoption on tho Pacific slope. It is no secret, also, that Sir Hib- bert’s ambition aspires to the leadership of the Conservative party, and he is bend- ing all bis energies in that direction. The elder Tupper has intimated more than once during the present session, that his political course is nea>']y run and his last hope is to seo the mantle of leaders hip, when it drops from bis shoulders, fall upon those of his sou. But there are others of the Tory household who bave fiist to be reckoned with, while the unpopularity of the Tapper family iu the ol<4er pro\incf8 precludes the possibility of Sir Hibbert’s succession to the leadership of his party.

The social Domoorats are stronger there than anywhere else in tho world. They own factories and bakeries, and many other co-op?rativo industrial instltution.s, out of whoso profits they support members of Parlia- ment ami run newspapers. The clericals, however, have secured all the political power in the country. For example the Opposition in Parliament bus 33 memb- ers from 996,000 voters, whereas the clericals have 114 members with only 946,000 voters. The electoral law, which has provoked the riots, was designed to assure to the clericals this preposterous predominance forever. The paving stones of Brussels, however, have won a victory for the moment, but not before apart- ments bad been prepared in Austida for the King of the, Belgians, whoso im- mense fortune, as is well-known, is safe In England.

Rennoa, France, July 3.—Captain Dreyfus lauded at Qulbcron and was con- voyed by train to Briiz, twelve kilome- tres from Rennes. There he onterotl a landau, acompanied by the chief of the detectives, and was driven to Rennes, where 25 gendarmes waited bis entrance into the town. Ten of the gendarmes en- tered a wagon and followofl the carriage. The others followed on foot. Tho party arrived at the prison without incident. A large crowd as.sembled and witnessed tho arrival in silence and without raanlfesta-

Dreyfu.s on arrival here appeared to be in good health. Ho wore a blue suit, a grey overcoat and a soft felt hat. His hair is turning grey and his board Is of a reddish color. He held himself very

Tbo landing of Dreyfus at Quiboron was almost unnoticed. At 9 o'clock on Frld.ay evening the guardship Caudan put to sea to meet the Sfnx. which had been flighted. Tbo unusual bustle at- tractea many people to the harbor, but as they saw nothing the crowd disoersed. ’The only persons remaining were those who knew where the prisoner was to be landed.

The weather was stormv, and for a time it was fe.ared it would be impossible to effect a landing. For hours the lights of the Caudan and Sfax were plainly visible, as the vessels pitched and rolled. It .seemed impos.slble for them to ap- proach in the rough sea. The Sfax bad

s several plates and her bulwarks slightly damaged by the heav3' bumping of the Caudan against her sides wben Captain Dreyfus was transferred, the sea being very rough

On the landing stage were M. Yigule, tho .chief of detectives; M, Hcnulon, a commi.ssary of police, and a force of gendarmes and police inspootora. Finally, at 1 a.m., a cutter, manned by ten men in charge of a naval officer, put off from the Caudan and went alongside the Bfax. Thence the boat rowed to tho shore, where Dreyfus was Hmded at 1.30 a.m. A company of infantry was drawn up at the landing point.

Drcyfu.s, who had been brought ashore in the boat, was immediarely placed under the guard of a captain of engineers and a sergeant and corpo.*.»l of gend- armes, who formally handed the pr^.-ioner over to M. Vlguie. The latter them enrered a landau with DreyTu.'? and two detectives and started for ib;* railroad slatioa, which was reached without in- cident. Dreyfus did not spo:ik a word.

Proce<led by his guards Drryfus enter- ed the prison, was formally («)n.-s;gned to tbe care of the governor and vas taken to a cell on the second story.

The governor of the prison sent Madame Dreyfus the nows of the arrival of her husband and she inmicdiatcly went to the governor and nsked permis- sion to seo the prisoner, leave being granted. The faithful ’wife entered the prison almo.'ît unobserved and was con- ducted to cell No. 830, accompanied by Mjvdamo Havot.

Tho meeting between the long-parted liusband and wife can better be imagin- ed than described. Naturally it was most touching. Both Dreyfus and his wife were (leeplv affected. They remained long (ki.-si-ed in each other’s arms, tears and smiles i.nioi’îr.inR'.îug with tender endear-

The woman is about 65 yenrs of age and has beim demented for .some time, frequently giving expression to the thought that she wished she was out of the way. Yo.sterday morning, unnoticed by any of her relatives, she saturated her clothes with coal oil and then set fire to herself with a match. The flame.s im- mediately ran up her dress and she ruflh- ed into tbe street a living bonfire. Mrs. Charlton, who was standing at her gato on the street, was the first to notice her and she at once bethought herself of blankets and cloths. Mrs. Bray, how- ever, evidently repented of her rash deed and rushed acro.ss the road to Mr. Phil- lips’ where she knocked at th© door. All was over In about eleven lutnutcs, for the flames speedily did their work and she fell on her back from the dear burn- ed to death.

Between four and five hundred from Dalhousie Mills to Mountain and vicinity, took advantage of tbe low rates to visit Uncle Sam and help him to celebrato his birthday, if not to congratulate him on his recent!^ acquired victories over the Don. Owing to the untjring efforts of the well known reverend gentfômad; the ar- rangements were as nearly perfect as they could bp, while conductor W. Nicholson, a Greenfield man, and brakeraen ~W. Myers and H. E. Hutchison, sustained tbe reputation of the O.F.R. for courtesy to its patrons and despatch in its business.

The excursionists spent the day taking in tbe sights of the picturesque city, and the attractions provided on the grounds,, Towards evening every ferry boat brought numbers back to Prescott and while awaiting on the *wbarf tbe hour of departure, these viewed what was perhaps the finest sight of the day. The city opposite was ablaze with fireworks of every color and the surrounding country was lit up by two powerful electric searchlights, all of which being reflected by tbe water of the St. Lawrence, produced an impression not soon to be effaced. The homeward journey was begun shortly after ten, and although the wee hours of next morning found many yet travelling, they were all satisfied with what was a day’s good en- joyment. Father Macdonald is to be con- gratulated on the successful issue of bis undertaking.

Having left the milk at the factory at Fisk’s Corners, be went to give water to some cattle on his farm. When on his return about 8 o’clock as he was passing the factory, a dog ran from under the fence and rushed under tbe horse’s feet. The horse became frightened and Mr. McLeod was kicked over the heart. He was picked up uncon- scious and removed to Ewen McMillan’s. He soon regained consciousness but suffer- ed much. The family were summoned to uDemeasiae-antrut. lauj^jweu soon arnvea.- It was a terrible moment. He told about the accident, spoke affectionately to the family, and as he said he was with the Lord, he fell into tbe sleep that knows no waking, at 11 o'clock. The funeral which took place on Saturday evening, was the largest ever seen in this district, two hundred and fifty carriages left his late residence. He was given an Orange Lodge burial. Revs. K. A.

A USEFUL INVENTION Lieut.-Col. A. P. McMillan, of Guelph,

has invented an eqg carrier which is intend- ed to meet a long felt want among farmers, traders and importers of ibis growing in- dustry. We had the pleasure of an inter- view with the Colonel and also saw the in- vention. It is a well known fact that eggs deteriorate by exposure to the sun and air, and this invention is to prevent this ex- posure and also form a means of carrying the eggs. The carrier consists of long tubes large enough to carry twelve eggs in each tube and twelve or more tubes can be pack- ed in a box and easily carried under the seat of a buggy or waggon. The outside of these tubes will be embellished with adver- tisements which certainly adds to their value. Col. McMillan has already made application for a patoot tor same. The inventor is tho same gentleman who has taken so much interest in procuring medals for tho volunteers who took part in the Fenian Raid of 1866, and is a native of St. Andrews, Stormont county.

‘SAVE THE BABY!” The first in.stinct of

the mother-heart is to preserve her little one. Its life ami health take precedence even over her

I o w n . The common dread

1 which women who are look- ing forward to

the coming of a new and precious baby into the world first feel, is that they may not themselves he able to go safely through the trying ordeal, and secondly comes the fear that the darling little teby’s life or health or general well- being may somehow be sacrificed.

But there is no real need of apprehen- sion in either direction. If any woman who is expecting to become a mother will follow the example of Mrs. Orrin Stiles, of Do^vning, Dunn Co., Wis., the most perfect confidence may be felt in the happy outcome of this critical period, both for the mother and the child.

“ I have been intending to write to you ever since my baby was born,” says Mrs. Stiles in an interesting letter to Dr. R. V. Pierce of Buf- falo. N. Y., “ iu r^ard to what your • Favorite Prescription ’ has done for me. J cannot praise it enough, for I have not been as well for five years ns I now am. In July la.st I had a baby boy, weight ir lbs. I was sick onlyn short time, and since I got up I have not had one sick day. I have not had any womb trouble since I got up. I wa.s not only surprised myself but all of my friends here arc surprised to see me so well,”

The properties of this grand “Pre- scription ” and what it has accomplished for thousands of women, are more fully described'in one chapter of the People’s Common Sense Medical Adviser by R. V. Pierce, M. D., a splendid thousand-page illustrated volume. It will be sent free paper-bound, for 31 one-cent stamps to

the cost of customs and mailing only; or, cloth-bound for 50 stamps.

The “Fa\*orite Prescription” is entirety free from alcohol: unlike nearly all other proprietary medicines for women, which n»erely give a tem- porary' stimulation and are likely to induce a morbid, unhealthy craring. The “ Favorite Prescription ” gives energy and nerve-tone that Is real, neallhy and permanent.
