The poor victims were not French and they were Methodists, so it was said, and. therefore Mr. Tarte was persecutiug them for this double crimeâ€"or blunder which is worseâ€" their nationality and their creed. So exercised did they become in the mat- ter that at least one annual Conference was persuaded to pass resolutions about it while the Montreal conference took the story so seriously that they appealed to the Government to inves- tigate. This was quickly agreed to and the Government sent their own Presidentâ€"Rev. Dr. Griffithâ€"to look into the matter and report. ; That ‘gientlefnan has returned and l __ ___.‘. ..

One might have thought that after the manner in which the apple business was ventilated in the Canadian Parlia- ment and Hess we should have heard no more agent it, and yet here it bobs up at the very beginning of the next season.

Though the Warning has been sound- ed time. and time again; the dishonest apple-packer, who is most certainly ruining the. Canadian made with Great Britain in this particular line, has not- ceased from his evil ways. I have re.- fem-ed to this matter more than once in the past, but it is of such tremend- ous importance that I venture to take space to quote from the. Toronto Globe’s London correspondent, who is in close touch with the British market. and has personal knowledge of the knowledge hereof he speaks. “It is most discouragin ,’ he writes “ to learn that the pas ing of apples so far received this season from Canada, is again in many cases dishonest. Two or three layers of very fine fruit are put at each end of the barrel, and the remainder is trash. As has often been Last year, for examplefthrétre WP-l e 50,- 000,000 bushels of Wheat exported from New York, but for the first ten months of this Emu- there has been less than 23,000,000 ushels. On the other hand the same hen months in Montreal shows a. bigger business than the whole of 1898, in spite of the handicap caused by the withdrawal of so many carriers by - the Imperial authorities for war transportation. KILLING THE GOOSE WITH THE GOLD- pointed out before, every person who buys a barrell of such fruit; is The very substantial prospect that a large, proportion of the American ex- ort grain traflic will, in the not far istant future, be permanently divert- ed from New York City and from Buffalo to the St. Lawrence river mute with its terminal at Montreal, is arousing the most intense interest not only in the cities likely to be most vitally interested, but at the capital of the Republic among the legislators thereof. Already the pinch is be in- ing to make itself felt and more at an one piece of legislatti'on will bepresentâ€" V- r. V-‘_,- ed at the next sitting of Congress. There is. for instance, a proposal to subsidize American built vessels trad- ing upon the Upper Lakes; there is a, proposal to build a. ship canal across the State of New York, from Lake. On- tario to the Hudson River,and so forth. Our xivals for the transcontinental trade are becoming desperate, and there appears to be excellent ground for their nervous apprehension for al- ready the tide is turning egainst then).
