JYLY 21, 1891.

The Police Magistrate of St. John, N. B., has delivered judgment against a number of saloon keepers for selling hop beer, as against the provisions of the Liquor License Act of New Bruns- wick. We trust that our neighbors will never have cause to lament the rising up of some higher judicial au- thority to set this judgment aside. We do not believe they will.

-——--W9‘.-0}-'-—-—

Ex-Gov. St. John, of Kansas, spoke in the new Prohibition Tabernacle, Po_rt-Richmond, S. I.; on Sunday last. Among other things he said that the whole license system was a sin against God and should be made a crime; that the consumption of liquor in Kansas is one gill a year to every person, while in New York it is at least twenty-five gallons to each person. If there is to be a beer paradise at the World’s Fair, as reported, he called upon all Prohibitionists to boycott the fair and leave the big beer garden for the beer guzzlers.

- -- -<>o~¢— —— _ The Charlton Sabbath Observance bill, after passing through the hands of the special committee, goes to par- liament shorn of many of its principal clauses, struck out because they con- flicted with provincial legislation. Aslthe bill now stands it covers no offence ever committed here. For the prevention of Sunday liquor selling the local legislature must act, and it is a matter of deep regret that the ques- tion was not brought before them during the early part of last session, and that a good common-sense law worthy of a christian country was not

pased. We are glad to hear that the pros-

pects are in favor of a sufficiency of fodder being garnered this season for

, the coming winter, and that we will

not likely experience a famine such as overtook the farmers last winter. The hay crop will be fair, and straw will probably be in abundance. It was largely owing to the scarcity of straw, which farmers use to husband out their hay supply, that the fodder famine came upon us in 1890-91. The hay crop in many other places, however, is short. In Ontario the crop is far below the average, and New England's yield, is about one-fifth short. In Nova Scotia on the other hand, the crop is heavy. Hay will however, probably command a high figure, and any one having a shortage would do well to take thought for the morrow.

Sexton Will Succeed McCarthy .

Losibos, July 18th.—Mr. Sexton has obtained the support of several Irish bis- hops and is increasing the adhesion of members who will an port him as leader of the Irish party on r. McCarthy’s with- drawal. Tho personal friends of Mr. Dillion lay stress upon his reluctance to lead any section if he fails to re-unite th party. He is diapoed to join his brother in America and to abandon political agi- tation for a time. The bulk of the liber- als if consulted would select Sexton before Dlllion. During the progress of the Irish land bill Sexton added immensely to his reputation as a tactician. He is the al'-lest debator in the party and is now recogniz- ed as a star in his quiet judicial handling of affairs.

Lord and Indy Mount-Stephen and their daughter, L-idy Northcote. are at Homburg. They will return toEngland about the 97th, and Lord Mount-Stephen is then to take his seat in the house of lords. Lord and Lady Mount-Stephen will go to Faskally House, Perthshire, for the autumn, on the 8th of August, and intend to entertain a succession of visitors there during the shooting season. Fash- ally is a lovely pl ce on the banks of the Tuinmel, having the famous falls of Tunimel within a short distance of the house. There is excellent shooting over about twelve thousand acres, of which nine thousand are grouse moor. and the estate. which is heavily timbered, aflorla every variety of Highland game.

4 At such time as the laws of the United Stated shall make corresponding provision, no through freight in transit from one point on the frontier, of the United States to some other point on the said frontier, shall be allowed to pass over Canadian roads on the Lord s day, except live stock and perishable goods.

Indians are exempted from the operations of the act when it conflicts with their tribal customs or rightt.

The bill has been shoin of many of its principle clauses, which were struck out

islation. An efford will be made to pass the amended bill this session,

Astornomicsl Notes

The Educational Review says, “ A student" is puzzled because his almanac says (1) that summer commences on June 22. and (2) that June 24 is midsummer; also because (he says) Dowden says in his Shakespeare Primer that the ‘midsummer night’ of the ‘Dream’ was the night of May [1. The summer that begins on J une 2l—not J une 22—is the astronom- ical summer, the second quarter of the tropical year. It is not the summer of nature, the summer that poets warble abr u‘, and that the man in the street and the man in the field talks about. This summer is a somewhat indefinite sea- son, and it would be rather a diffi- cult matter to say just when it be- gins, or when‘ it ends. But science does not like indefinite notions; it prefers something clean-cut and precise, something whose beginning and whose ending can be exactly defined. When it does not find such a thing ready-made] in nature itlls apt to make one, or to feign one, for its own convenience.

Modern astronomy considers the suin- mer to begin at the moment when thu sun reaches it greatest distance north of the equator, and to continue until the moment when the sun’s centre is on the equator. The former event happened this year on June 21 at 1h. 32m. 9s., p. in. (60° time), the latter will happen on September 23st 4h. 13m. 25s. These, than, are the limits of the astronomical

summer for the pre=ent year. ._...:——¢—___j.

Smith’s Successor-

Loxnox, July l5.—Hon. W. H. Smith who ha- to resign the leadership in the Commons owing to ill health, is suffering from the effects of suppressed gout. Party talk now assigns the succession to the leadership in commons to Right Hon. Charles Thomson Ritchie, president of the local governnment board. This opin- ion prevails on the ground that Load Salisbury prefers a sensible and moderate man like Ritchie, rather than a more brilliant and self-assertive min, as would be found in A. J. Balfour and G. J. Goschen.

LONDON, ()nt., July 16.——Local G. R. employcs have been notified that in future they will have to pay full freight rates the same as ordinary customers of the line. This, following so closely on the reduction in the wages of the railway- nien is causing the latter to feel very sore, inasmuch as it me.-ins a very considerable amount out of their pockets. The rin- cipiil item will be on coal. The iuen ave received yearly supplies of this article at freight rates just half those paid by the coal dealers.

SAN ANTOIIIO, TdX., July 17.--—Tlie The gras hoppvr ravages in the northern and western counties of New Mexico are doing iucalculable harm. Some farmers consider them seventeen year locusts, which ravaged the West duri g the seven- ties. The locusts have stripped vege- tation and the leaves 03 trees and left nothing but the dry alkali earth where they have struck the ground. They move in bunches four and five miles wide. They do not make much progress after flying, but the egg they lay batches and a new batch flies eastward.

Not The Reason At All.

BANGOR, Me., July l7.——Congrcssuxan Boutelle received a telegram to-day from the deputy collector of customs at East-

rt that the Dominion fishing cruiser gleam seized seven American fishing boats on Thursday for-enoon in that harbor. The crew were landed there and the boats towed to St. Andrew's N. B. The 0 - cups: ts of the boats claim they were fishing in United States waters and ask for protection from the gover merit. Mr. Boutelle has requested Secretary of the Treasury Foster to take measures for the oflicial ascertziininent of the facts, and the protection of the rights of “ Americans.” He adds: “ It looks like an attempt to annoy and liar-ass “ Americans‘ at a time when the Maine cosasl: is most thionged with pleasure seekers from all parts of the country.”

Canadian Eggs in England.

It will be seen by a perusal of our special corrc poudencc from London, England, that Canadian eggs are begin- ning to attract the attention which their quality and style of package merits in the British markets. During the month of May last over 500,000 great hundreds or 5,000 dozen Canadian eggs were received

into Great Britain, which, as our corres-

pondent remarks, looks as if the trade had been established on a firm basis for our eggs on the other side. He also says there is “naught but praise for arr vals from CanadIi.”—Montreal Trade Bulletin.
