The labor of con- testing wo election, under existing condi- tious, is immense. A careful and thorough canvass cannot possibly be wade. When fouv candidates are running, it is impossible to obtain a clear expression of the opinion ul @ majority of the people upon any poli- tical question. Oonstituencies in which there are ivuurtcandidates are exceptional. A chauge to place Prince Edward Island on the satae footing, in this respect, aa other parte of Canada, is much to be desired.

Tse nerve power of the life of apy country is the strong feeling of national honor which actuates the peo. ple. Greece rose to the pinuacle of her yreatness because of the Joyal sentiment of the people, United Germany responded to the wardrum which called for the de- fenders of ** Fatherland,” by the wave of cational sentiment which zolled across (hat cowntry. France to-day is stimulated by the history of her national glory. Britain

real

is influenced in her policy with foreign

Majority for Government—41. je A Free Trader's View.

A leading financial journal ia London, the Economist, has discussed the Canadian election and the platforms cf the two parties, Being a free trader, it naturally does not approve of protection. Leing a thoughtful paper, it as naturally disapproves of the wonderful combination of free trade and pro

tection that the Liberals have adopted aa their platform. Its words are worthy the attention of the px ople. it says :

‘* What we wish to point out is, that with out taking the mother country into considera. tion at all, and looking at the subject from the point of view of Canadian self-interest alone, the policy of the Liberal party is one which cannot work to the the sdvantage of the Dominion. Its practical effect will be to tax Canadia consumers for the benefit of American manufacturers. Protection is bad, even When home manufacturers are the per- sona protected; but it is intinitely worse when the persons who reap the advantage are foreigners. Avd that would be the case in Canada, if such « differential duty as is pro- posed were established. The immediate effect, of course, would he to deprive Canada of the 1,474,000 pounds of customa revenue now derived from imports from the United States. lf there were real free trade, the Canadians would not thereby suffer, But there would not he free trade. The Amerl- cap manufacturers would be protected ageinst the on'y effective competition they have to fear, 'the competition, that ie, of Brit- ish manufacturers. They would, therefore, be under no compulsior to lower prices, but would work up to the iull limit of price which the tariffon Hritish imports permitted. Thus the million and a half pounds or so which the revenue lost would go, not to Canadian con- sumers, but to American manufacturers, with the result that the Canadian taxpayers would be compelled to pay that amount twice over. They would have to continue to pay it in the price of the goods, and new taxes to a similar amount would have to be imposed to make good the gap in the revenue. Nor would the process end there. To whatever extent Am. erican products were successful, with the aid of the tariil, in displacing British goods, to that extent the loss of revenue would be in- ereased. What the people of Canada are asked to do, therefore, is to pay the American manufactarers some millions of money which now go into the treasury, and to tax them- selvea to make up the loss. For what? Not that Canada may increase her trade, but

that she may so divert trade as to increase her dependence upon the United States. For uothing is more

certain than that, if the effect of the discrim- inating tariff were to close Canadian markets against British goods we should be compelled to curtail our purchases of Canadian producte, Trade is, in essence, barter, and if the Cana- dians will not exchange with us we must seek others who will. Let the people of Canada judge for themselves which is the better mar- a the British or the American, seeing that ir evynorte . oar«iat, af ic ol produce, and trade ia derlSaitural peo taots with the United States is rauch like sending coals to Newcastle. What the result of the elections will be it would be hard to predict Bat of thisCanada may rest assured,that ff she attempts to buy trade with the United States by sacrificing her trade with Great Britain it will not be long before she finds cause to rue so improvident a bargain.” The points could not, as the Montreal Gazette remarks, be much betzer put.

—_——_->-—-—-——

Sir,—In a small city, such as oura— where one would not expect to find many that are very poor and destitate—the num- ber of those in sectual want, far exceed any iuiea we can possibly have of those needing assistance im every way, some of them at our very doors. You, who are seated in comfortable |emes around bright fires, these coid evenings this winter—some of you, in fact many—would be shocked to know that there are human beings in dire want, within your reach, even within call.

There has been a generous answer to an appeal to raise fands for the poor this win- ter, and in giving help that way most of our people have done well. But of one thing, the demand for assistance among the poor is sometimes given privately, or from one person to another, and the persons who ask the sid for their poorer brothers and sisters, must feel very grateful when that aid is given. But there is a questiou——we are otten askec—ia the person deserving ot the charity, and would it bo right to help them? Now, these are hard things to answer; and it ie » surprising fact that very often the ones most prone t» make these inquiries those who hold the responsible position of ‘‘ pastors of # flock, and would be expected to assist any of His poor—for His sake; and if the world did not consider the needy one deserving, the clergyman at least would not hesitate about giving help, if for nothing else than the hope that it might serve a3 a weans to bring back to his fold one of those who through want,or misery and temptation, have wandered far from home. The writer would be sorry to advocate aid, pecuniary or otherwise, for one or two applicants who are always tothe fore, as in their case it goes for drink. But these cases are well- known to ali of the clergymen in the city, I think, and they can be guarded against.

ate

Each church has a fund for the povr, and it is but natural to suppose that those

belonging to each congregation would come in first for attention. But there are many who go absolutely nowhere, who belong to no one body of professing Christians, and these people need help. Who is guing to give it to them ? In one of these cases very lately, aid has been refused by 4 pastor ili charge of one of the largest churches, sim- ply because the person for whom it was asked was not known to belong positively to the church the application was made to. When it was shown that thore was every doubt that the person was a meraber of any

mah theohtwnawer waa civen, something not very creditable was knowl OF Uitetitead the help refused until more could be found out. Now, when wo get such answers from @ man io a position the one referred to holds, what may, I ask, is to be the result ? Are people who are starving and perishing to die from hunger and cold, while our so- called religious people look about for those who are fully deserving in their eyes to become objects of their charity? It was not to seek those who were already sought, that the one true, perfect min came to earth ; rather was it to wander into the mountains and tind the one lamb that had strayed from the fold. He did not ask if those on earth were decerving of ilis love and pity. He well knew how very unde- serving they were ; but He gave it, and who are we, pastors or people, thst we should do aught but try to follow His example, leave the issue in his lauds, and be ecntent that it will be well.

In justice to another clergyman who was also applie t to,! must say that the as-istance was cheerfully given, aud useless questions were not asked, any more than as regarded the way the money would be expended, and the knowledge that it was really neoded,

It is not to be wondered at that there are those who will doubt when professing Chris- tians will give such afgood chance to do do; when the appeal to the commonest feelings of humanity fiads no answer in the hearts of fathers and mothers, who have children with their future yet before them. ‘here is a day of reckoning to come, and it will be better to

much than too littl—and if oar efforts to rescue any §>f our unfortunate fellow-beings trom poverty and sin may seem to have been unsuccessiul, we can only Jeave it in the hands of Him who knows all, and the knowledye of daty done will uct surely maks us unhappy. Hevnrt.
