That Mr. Laurier- will: achieve what Mr. Blake failed to accomplish is too much to hope. That he will still ï¬ght his country's battles hun- astly'and. honorabe is“ bawndi a dszubta. Nor are his endowments ctsi‘ntel- lect less than those of heart. He is coniessedly to-dayi the foremost or- ator in Canada, Mr. Blake alone excepted. He does not,rit is true, exhibit in his speechestthat intimate acquaintance with liis‘subjects that distinguished Mr. Blake. But he more than atones for what after all is a fault of circumstances, by an. el- oqlience at once glowing, graqeful‘ and smcere. The Hon. VV'illrid Laurier has deï¬nitely accepted the leadership of the Liberal Party, made vacant by Hon. Edward Blake's retirement. In more than one‘ respect, Mr. Laurier is worthy ot his predecessor. He IS possessed» of the same sterling qualities of heart. which render dis- honor worse than a blow. Although he has been many years in public life, his name to-dajl- is untannished by even the shadow of a wrong._ His ï¬ercest political toes. am- here the judges. ' But yet how would the revenue of Canada be affected by the abol- ishing of duties on American im. portations ? As both their tarifl and our own are well nigh prohibi- tive, our loss on that score would be but trifling. Moreover our revenue is now absurdly high on account of lavish and uncalled for expenditure. And we are quite satisï¬ed that due retrenchment in the one direction would more than compensate for any loss in the other. We are glad to learn that all over the country the Farmers are taking the ï¬rst and necessary steps to or- ganize and husband their strength for any and every political struggle that may arise. Too long have they been divided and kept asunder by those whose only aim is success at the polls. Fiercely and bitterly the Farmers have fought for almost meaningless names, and so intent have they been in waging a war not their own that they seemed to for- get that they had interests personal and paramount. Numerically the Farmers exceed all other guilds con- jomed ; mentally and morally, they are inferior to none. It, then, they persist in striving for what will prove of advantage to themselves, it is axiomatic that the country will be the gainer, for the Farmers, they are the country. The trend ofopinion, as expressed in all the Farmers‘ Institutes which have held meetings, is in iavor of Complete and unrestricted Reciproc- ity with the United States. This, in brief, means Commercial Union, indeed, but a Commercial Union that precludes any intermixture of political systems. The Custom- houses are regarded by them as was Saul’s armor by Dav1d, a dead weight that hampers without giv- ing security. As we have already said in these columns, Commercial Union is a change too vast and too momentous to be lightly or thoughtlessly accept- ed as the thing for Canada. If we eliminate from the discussion that prime consideration. the possible danger to ourlaws and constitutions, there still remain many important points to be clearly Settled. We know that during the twelve years in which we .had the Reciprocity Treaty with the United States, our trade with that country made tre- mendous advances. In 1854, It a- mounted to $33,000,000; in 1886, it reached the colossal ï¬gure of $84,- 000,000. Yet that treaty was limit- ed solely to the natural productions of the two,count1ies. And further, smce that timeI the population of Canada has nearly doubled, while that of the United States has in- creased fully twenty-ï¬ve per cent. Rï¬rï¬mn HILL.

Swings, croquet and other amusements were freely indulged in. There was also a football match between Euseiy juniors and the juniors 0t Duwnsvicw, which re- sulted in a. victory for Downsview by one goal to nothing. It was one of the hardâ€" est contested games ever played here, each club doing some brilliant playing. After the game was over some of the spectators disgraced themselVes by in- sulting the visitors. It is to be hoped such conduct will not occur again, for a. few more such acts would be the death- blow for football in this village. WE win my the above Reward for any I 08.0 “DY-Dennis. Liver Conn-nth Plum our own Correspondent. On J1me 15th our Football team went to Elia and played a match with Weston team, which resulted in a draw, each side securing two goals. ()n the’ same day our juniors defeated the Elia juniors by six straight. goals. Humber Lodge A. F. & A. 31,, com- memorated the anniversary of St. John the Baptist by attending divine service as Masons. A large number of visiting brethren were present from Blackwood Lodge, Woodbridge. Mimico Lodge,York Lodge, and representatives from many of the city lodges, including St. Andrews, Alpha. and Orient. The service was held in the Presbyterian church. and was con- ducted by the Rev. Bro. Walter Reid, Pastor, assisted by the Rev. Bro. J. R. Brick, Incumbent of St‘ Phillip’s church. The large church was ï¬lled to overflow- ing by a. very appreciative audience, who listened with great pleasure to a very eloquent and able discourse. The col- lection. in aid of the \Vidmvs’ and Or~ phens’ Fund, was worthy of the contrib- utors, and afï¬rms the liberality of all true craftsmen in so worthy an object.

On Friday last, a cripple named Thos. Newman, came to the residence of Mr. J . Madil], 5th Con. York, as the family were setting down to tea. Mr. Madill invited Newman to join them, which he cheerful|y did, remarking that he was very hungry. and commenced to eat vor- aciously. He, however, had only taken a few mouthfuls, when he chosked on a piece of meat. Mr. Madill immediaiely sent. for a doczor, but long before he ar- rived Newman was beyond human skill. Mrs. Madill. who is in a delicate state of health, received a terrible shock to her nervous system. the death being so sud- den and unexpected. REWARD! (From our own Correspondent.) 0n the evening of June 24th, in this village, an old gentleman named Ira Shibley,-aged 71 years, put an end to his existence by swallowing a quantity of Paris Green, His wife, on becoming a- were of his act, sent a messenger to Dr. Savage, whose residence was only a short distance from where they lived. The Dr. was promptly in attendance, and did. all that was possible to save his life. The deadly drug, however, had too ï¬rm a hold. death resulting about two hours after his state became known. N 0 cause can be assigned for the rash act, the fam. ily being of the highest respectability and in afliuent circumstances. $500.00 Weston. Edaely. SOBTHING, CLEANSING, HEALING.
