THE DAILY EXAMINER.

AUGUST 16, 1887.

The “Patriet” and Commercial Union

Tne Pat has no confidence in the success of its efforts to injure Tak Exam vex and promote Commercial Union. Evidently, it regards the effort of Satur- day evening as insufiicient and futile, for it returned to the charge last “evening. Tuer

EXAMINER is armed so strong in honesty

that all the Pat s misrepsesentations and slanders make no impression against it. The viper gnaws the file in vain.

ind yet they say: “‘let us goin with the United States, unite with them, assimilate our tariff with theirs, make it prohibitory, and the people of Great Britain will love

us more and more, and protect us from the overreaching greed of those whose fishing and other interests clash with ours.” Could

madmen be more foolish? Could a better

proof of madness be adduced /

But, it is said by some, who are not quite so mad as others,thatafter we join the Union the United States will reduce its tariff

Why not do it before? The re- is now millions of dollars in excess of their expenditure. Why not reduce thetariffnow? lf they really desire Commercial Union with Canada they

can at once make it possible for Canada to

enter the Union by removing Great Britain's chief objection to it, and at the same time reduce their

revenue to the requirement of their expen- diture. They can do it just as well now as after a Commercial Union has been entered into by Canada. But they will not do it. They do not intend to do it. They are for

prote T1IOn ag

world. They are for protection against Canada, too, unless Canada makes it worth their while, by the concession of National

So the is intent only on capturing the trade and ‘* underlying ”

against Great Britain and foreign nations must not be impugned.

The Patriot urges as its chief objection to Unrestricted Reciprocity as opposed to Commercial Union, that British and foreign goods entering-the United States would have to be taxed again if taken into Canada. From our point of view, there is nothing in this objection ; for while our tariff is lower than that of the United States, British and foreign goods will come direct to Canadian ports in preference to those of the States. We can well understand that,from the point of view of the United States, the objection of the Patriot might be well taken. If the Patriot were published in Boston or New

York, its

and fisheries

A correspondent of the Montreal Star suggests that the fisheries dispute be settl- ed by Canada granting the United States the privilege of free fishing in return for the cession to Canada by the latter of that part of Maine through which the short line will run, and also a free entry for Canadian caught fish into the American market. The Star’s correspondent has evidently a very poor idea of the value of our fisheries.

Professor Ami, of the Geological Survey, ridicules the reported finding of anthracite coal in the neighborhood of Campbellford, Ont. He says: ** The rocks which occur it Campbellford and the district for hund-

not yet quite closed, but it is understood that there are only a few more small pay- ments to make and that the result of the year’s transactions will show a surplus of something over three hundred thousand | dollars, which is much more satisfactory | than the Finance Minister anticipated when he made his budget speech. The receipts | for the current fiscal year are keeping up | well so far, and it looks as if the deficit | period caused by the Northwest rebellion | was passed, and we were just commencing | on another season of surpluses.” So we are | not to have a deficit after all! |

While we have nothing but condem- nation for those who violently assault the Salvation Army on the public street, we cannot refrain from expressing sympathy for persons sick and nervous, who are start- | led and excited by the Army’s noisy demon- | strations. We think, too, that the officers | of the Army would show better teste if they | refrained from parading while services are | being conducted in our churches. lt is hard to see what good the Army can do by disturbing people while at public worship, or by interrupting the discourses of our preachers. ‘The Salvation Army ought, at least, to have the good sense to refrain trom making their big drum a nuisance to the community. This is a free. country— but we must all respect the feelings and rights of others, or be ready to stand con- demned,

Lawn Tennis Tournament.

Yesrerpay, at Victoria Park, the ladies of the Mic-Mac and Fitzroy Lawn Tennis Clubs finished the competition for the prize so kindly presented by Mr. Justice Young. The trophy offered by His Lordship was a massive gold chain and locket, exquisitely set in turquoise and pearls, and was accom- panied by a suitable address. At the tinal setts between Mrs. Arnaud and Miss M. Rayden much interest was manifested by the onlookers, and after each hard fought game the applause of the spectators was loud and hearty. Some excellent play was shown on both sides. Mrs. Arnaud played a magnificent game, but was slightly handi- capped, which may to a certain extent ac- count for a defeat by her plucky adversary. We understand Judge Young has an- nounced his intention of offering at some future time another prize to be competed for by lady] members of both clubs. Too much cannot be said in praise of his Rind- ness and generosity in thus festerlng an in- terest in this most desirable form of recrea- tion,

THE 27th prize meeting of the Provincial Rifle Association commenced yesterday morning at 9.30 o'clock. Sixty-six competitors entered in the All-comers match and nineteen inthe Nursery. The weather was not favorable for shooting, the wind being changeable, and the hght variable. In the afternoon a shower of rain fell during the firing. To-day the wind is tricky and unsteady. The shooting will probably be finished on Wednesday. All-Comers match—200 yards—standing or kneeling. Highest, possible score 35.

Amonu the gayeties ofthe season at the Seaside Hotel, Rustico Beach, the entertain- ment of Thursday evening deserves to be recorded in our columns. At eight o'clock a crowded assembly gathered in the chiet parlor, which was divided from the stage by a gaily festooned British ensign, through the network of whose bunting the inquisitive guests had the hardihood to. interest themselves in the preparation of the troupe. The following is a copy of the programme :

The services of the justly celebrated violin virtuoso Signor Scrapino da High Sceed have been secured by the management, after an unparallelled outlay. The pro- gramme will therefore be considerably lengthened and embellished by the bowings and scrapings of this remarkable genius.

All the items were carried out with shin- ing success. The playing of Mile. Toron- tini and Signora Strumtillini was applauded heariily, and the singing of Signora Squal- lini was caught up and’ re-echoed by the delighted audience. Mrs, Sitt-Secoddons read acceptably ‘*The Curfew shall not toll to-night.” The tableaux-vivants were superbly executed, and exhibited under brilliant calcium lights, the whole by able direction of the illustrious artist Monsieur Port del’Esperance, and his lady coadju: tor, Madame Mount Royal. The charade’ forming No. 3 of Part One was successfully unravelled forth, first half by a quick-witted Southern guest as Deal ’Oss, but the second appearance of the seene had to be an- nounced by the management as the Same ‘Oss. The Beard of Bluehead was of gor- geous hue and the ferocity of his aspect sufticiently appalling. But the develop- ment in the history of the Dirty Boy, Mas- ter Grinallover, under the heroic treatment of Mrs. Scrubemelean, led us~ far beyond the conception of Toscardi. The Pretty Milk Maid, Miss Charlottetown, also ap- peared in the Bard’s encore song as Sally of the Valley. e:

When the curtain, dropped the troupe joined with the audience in dancing, which was twice agreeably interrupted, first for choice refreshments provided by our kind hostess, and afterwards for a brilliant dis- play of fireworks. The fun grew fast and furious, waltzes and ripples, ‘strathapeys and reels kept up till the midnight chime of the bell, Signor Scrapino alternating with the ladies in furnishing choice music.

The closing-scene was the presentation of a commemorative medal by the ladies of the hotel to the genial Bard, King of the Bowling Alley, who poetically and graciously responded amid the applause of the company.

Prof. Mack is so well known by reputation that of his success it is not necessary to speak further. Mrs. M. 8. Townsend. will continue. in charge of the fine art department, drawing, painting, etc. Mrs. Townsend’s department has elicited high commendation from the press at the several exhibitions which have-been -given the students under hercharge. During the summer she is studying up the latest de- siens in decorative work in American cities, and there is no doubt that her institution will as heretofore be fully up to the stand- ard. Miss Annie Mack will continue in charge of the department of French, Ger- man and vocal culture. Miss Mack has proved herself to be a most successful teacher.

In view, of.these facts, the public can be assured that during the ensuing collegiate year Mt. Allison’s Ladies’ Seminary will offer improved facilities for studying to the young women of the Maritime Provinces, and not only deserve but secure still more gratifying evidence of the appreciation of the public. —Halifax Mail.

Why the Columbus Watch is the Bort

ae — Main Spring barrel is completely covered, making the wateh perfectly dust proof,

There can be no interference between the Balance and the Barrel.

The Regulator is nearly double the length of others, rendering accurate regulation a

very simple matter.

Toreplace a broken Main Spring, the Bariel can be removed without disturbing the Balance or igterfering with the regulation.

The pins of the Regulator are so formed and located that two or more coils of the Hair Spring cannot catch between the Pins aud cause the Watch to stop or gain timé at ay unusual rate.

The Balance comes under the round, or edge, the strongest part of the case, not as with all others, under the center and weakest pari.

The Main Spring Power is the lightest used in Ameri2zan Watches.

The calculation of the Train is such that this Watch runs 8 to 10 hours longer than others, with one winding, giving more uniform power and rate.

These are improvements that cannot be claimed by any other manufacturers, and once seen, all must agree with us in saying that this is the strongest and best Watch made; and with all the above improvements, the Columbus Watches cost no more than others,
