The High School opened this week with a very good attendance, fully as many as can be expected at this season of the year. There will be quite an addition next Monday, as it was thought by some the school would not open until the first Mon- day in September. We would say,to those especially who were unsuc- cessful at the late examination, com. mmcc at once.When a candidate tails only by a few marks in one or two subjects he is otten reluctant in re- newing his studies. thinking there will be plenty 01 time to brush up a t-tw days before the next examin- ation. This is a wrong impression, and the sooner parents recognize this error the better. The next set of questions may run altogether in a different groove, so that it is quite possible for a pupil to make less marks on certain papers even after a year's solid study,though his aver- age will undoubtedly be much better. \\'e repeat that those intending to present themselves at next year's ex- amination should not lose a month nor yet a week. but should settle down to diligent study immediately. In this way success is almost cer- tain. RICHMOND HILL. Thursday, Aug. \K'ere it not that the Presidential election takes place in a few months President Cleveland’s retaliation threat might look somewhat serious to Canada. But it seems that the President, too, is a politician, and that in the United States everything has to clear the way ior politics no matter what may be in the back ground. Some there are who pre- dict a disruption of triendship and good will betiveen the American and British nations,but the general opin- ion is, it is only an election contro- versy between a Republican Senate and a Democratic President. There is no doubt Mr. Cleveland was anxi- ous that the Fishery Treaty should pass, but this in itself was sufï¬cient to cause its overthrow in the Senate. Little can now be expected until after the November election, but when the chief magistrate is again firme seated in his chair for the next four years the question Will in all probability be again opened up 131‘ arbitration. Should retaliation be resorted to Canada would undoubtedly suffer, but this would be little satisfaction t3 our neighbors to the south when by restricting commercial inter- course they would lJC the greatest losers. Maine and her neighboring states would be the first to cry out it their shipping facilities were inter- l‘cred With, but the effect would be greatly felt all along the border. It looks like retaliation with a venge- ance when for prohibiting Ameri- cans ï¬shing in Canadian waters the President wishes to stop the trans- portuzion of all toreign imports through the United States to Can- ada, all Canadian exports through the United States to foreign coun~ tries, and to stop the transportation of all American goods through Can- ada in . 0nd.

It shows at once that Reâ€" ciprocity is not the {ad its enemies endeavor to make it out to be. It is undeniably popular, and the more it is ventilated the stronger are its claims to popularity. No doubt the time will come when this question of Continental Free Trade will be debated on its merits, and then far- mers, lumbermen, ï¬shermen and others will be able to see the reason- ableness of the measure. was defeated by 27 votes,the ï¬gures certainly show toa disadvantage for the rcstrictionists. In the former part of the campaign the question oi temperance was well to the front, but as both candidates were avowed prohibitionists it is doubtlul if the ï¬nal result was by this altered either one way or the other. No doubt some oi the enthusiastic followers of the Dominion Alliance voted against Mr. Waldie, but this Would be a- bout balanced by the level-heads who thought it safer to judge a man by his past record rather than by a forced pledge just on the eve of an election. Mr. VValdie when in par- liament always threw his influence against the liquor interests, and now that he is again elected the temper- ance people may well congratulate themselves that they have secured such a valuable assistant to help them in their struggle.
