at s: giltâ€"trill. RICHMoND HILL. Thursday, June 8. ’93 We believe with the Globe that Rev. Dr. Douglas made a mistake when he asserted that the Mcthodist Church is politically ostracrzed in Canada. The rev. gentleman, who is probably the greatest orator in the conference, expressed his opin- ion at Owen Sound a iew days ago, that his people were excluded from . both the Dominion and Ontario Governments, but directed his re- marks principally against the latter. “300,000 Catholics," said he, “were guaranteed representation in the Cabinet through Mr. Fraser, while 600,000 or 700,000 Methodists found no representation there." if the venerable minister could show that a more competent man than Mr. Fraser could be chosen for the po- sition which the latter holds, he would have a charge against Sir Oliver Mowat. But this he does not claim. We believe that every member of the Provincial Govern- ’ ment is a specralist in his particular department, and in ability Mr. Fraser undoubtedly stands next to the Premier. Dr. Douglas contends that the Roman Catholics have a representative, therefore the Meth- odists should be similarly treated. It is to be regretted that such a view should be taken by such a prominent spokesmen oi the great Methodist body. If Roman Catho- lics, Presbyterians or any other de- nominations have been given rep- resentation from a sectarian stand- point, the doctrine is mischievous, and Methodists should scorn to en- ' ter the lists. \Ve believe, however, that such is not the case, but that every member of the Mowat Ad. ministration is eminently qualified tor the department which he con- trols. \Ve cannot believe that be- ing a Methodist is a hindrance to advancement is this province. Sir Charles Russell, the present .Liberal attorney-general of the United Kingdom, whose powerful advocacy of the British and Cana- dian cause before the Behring VSea arbitration court is exciting the ad- miration ot the world, is an Irish- man, a Roman Catholic and a Home Rulerâ€"one of the class whom the Tory leaders are so loud of describ~ ing as “disloyal” and unfit tor sell government. It was remarked by several who attended the Court of Revision on Friday last, that although the meet- ings of the Village Council are sup- posed to be public, the spectators knew very little more when they came away from the hall than when they went. The members of the Council may not be aware of it, nevertheless it is a fact that they do a good deal 0t their business in a voice little louder than a whisper.

DEAR SIR,â€"1{indiy allow me space to reply, on behalf of the Ollicers and Di- rectors of the Richmond Hill St. Yonge Street Agricultural Society, to an open letter addressed to them in last week’s LIBERAL, by Mr. H. G. Cliarleswortl), of “The Cedars’,’ Stables, Eglintou. The Society regrets exceedineg that. Mr. C. or any other exhibitor left the fair grounds on the 24111 of May feeling that; they had not been fairly treated, but. the Directors claim that everything was done on their part to endeavor to satisfy all competitors. As to whether Mr. C’s. roadster stallion, Oliver W., was entitled to more than second prize the Directors do not. feel called upon to say. As in til‘llflual members they may pass their tiEt‘lltVEttTtSEMEHTS land in doing so felt they private opinion, but as a body they as~ Slime no reSponsibility in the nmtte‘t' The directors appointed as judges for the roadster class Licut..-Gol. Wuyliug, of Sharon, and Major Elliott, of Nlarhhum, i had Clinstl) competent. and henmable men. Had Mr. C. entEred a protest in aCClirdllllCd with the rules of the Society the directors then would have been in a position to , investigate, but he did not choose to place the decision in their hands. They, therefore, had to accept the awards of the Judges. Allow me here to correct a his: impression. It is thought. by some peo- - pie that Oliver \V. did not get first prize from the fact that. he is over 16 hands high. This is incorrect. Although Mr. C. advertises him in his bills to he 16 litlnds 1 inch, he told the judges ho was i only 16 hands, and they accepted his Word for it, and judged the horses, as they say, on their merits. Mr. C. goes out. of his way to insult the whole body of directors when he says that, “for years it has been well known that even a small measure of justice is i not accorded to any outsiders who atâ€" tempt to show in Competition with one or two local men who are supposed to run the Show.” Every director must, feel the insult hurled at, him by the writer. \Vlio are the “outsiders,” pray l The majority of the directors are selected frOm among the most rclmhlo nth in the townships of Vaughan, Markham and \Vhitchurch, and their desire is to see impartiality, if possible. No director will conscientiously say that on attempt is ever made by any one or two local men to “run” the show. Again Mr. C. says that his Oliver W. is "undoubtedly the finest sproimen of a roadster stallion ever imported into (Jan- ado.” To this the directors his” decline to pass an opinion, although a leiter over Mr. C’s. signature In the Mail some time ago shows that Oliver 'W. w-Is awarded only fifth place at the stallion Slit-W in Toronto this spring. Of course Mr. 0. took the opportunity to heap abuse upon the judge who dared to say that Oliver WV. was not the best horse in Canada, and upon the Agricultural and Arts As Sucintion, but this enterprisith horseman may think it a legitimate way of utlvcrtis mg his stock. As to Mr. C‘s. hmuhtest about the mare which 01108 had two colts that he says sold for $10,000 each and the filly \\'lilL‘ll he says he refused $1,000 for when only two weeks old, and which he did not bring to the Fair, we regard :is childish talk. The fact is Mr. C. dreams of fab- ulous prices, and is known for and wide as :1. chronic gruuibler. In conclusion allow me to say that of the thirty-two judges nppoinietl, all but three (which include twu in uriling and drawing and one in ladies’ Work) were selected from a distance, If any of that. number err in their judgment. it is to be regretted, but. without proof beimg brought to the notice of the directors in the regular way, it Cet‘thilzly would show a spirit of ingraiitudc to Citdc re- flections upon their probity. Thanking you for space, I remain, Yours respectfully. H. A. Furious, Sec’y R. H. «.fi Y. S. San. Such ty.
