Elections in the States. i
Tue people of the United States have rendered # verdict upon the McKinley Bill aud other measures passed by the Repub- lieans. Indefinite and conflicting as the re- turns are ia respect to many States, there seemsto bs no room for doubt that the Democrats will control the next House of Representatives by « large majority. Me- Kinley himself is among the slain. Cana- dians everywhere will rejoice at this resu!t. There was a good excuse for an abnormally high tariff so long as the great war debt the country. But except that
pressed heavi'y upon there is no good excuse now, of putting the screws upon Canada in order that she may be forced to join the Re- public. It is plain to every unpre judiced outsider that the policy of lowering or re- moving the high duties imposed upoa raw products and articles which cannot be pro- duced in the country, was the right policy to have been pursued by the States as soon as it became evident that the revenue of the!

The Coneert of Last Evening.
Ir often happens that entertainments given on the eveving of a holiday are not well attended. The cause is easily found in the fact that many persons are out of town and that many of those who remain in town does net care to tear themselves away from their own comfortab'e and happy firesides. We were, therefore, not surprised to find that the audience in at- tendance at the concert of last evening was not large. Those who were present evi- dently enjoyed the beautiful music rendered by Messrs. Lloyd and Hearts. Mr. Hearts labored under the double disadvantage of coming after Waller, and not having a grand But his playing—on one of Messrs Miller Bros, pianos—was so good that he soon had the ear of the house. Even while he rendered the best of his selections every one listened intently. A musician must be excellent. who has power to stop the buzz of conversation usually kept up by un appreciative persons while instrumental music of the classic kind is being rendered in Charlottetown. The beautiful familiar airs of the plantation, as interpreted by Mr. [leartz, were heard with delight. One of the most popular numbers of the pro- gramme was the * Esplanade Mazurka,” hamed afier the Eeplinade of Charlottetown and composed by Mr. Heartz himselt,though the name on the programme was modestly printed ‘*‘Harts.” We congratulate Mr. lieartz upon the success which, from the inusical point of view, he scored last even-

ing.
Mr. L'eyd sang eight good songs, and +
He has a fine, pure-toned, musical voice of wide range. But he is scmewhat lacking in point of power. To his knowledge of this fact we attribute his selection of so many sentimental songs, with which a large proportion of his audience were not in sympathy. Indeed, a succession of seven love songs, however beautiful, must have more than satisfiel even the most sentimental and leve-lorn of audiences. deeb Recent Fires.
The alarm on Wednesday night last was fora fire in a stable belonging to the Trenaman estate and occupied by Messrs. Geo. Jury and 8S. Sanderson. The fire, which is supposed to be the work of an incendiary, was well under way when dis- covered. Mr. Sanderson’s two horses and carriages were promptly removed from the burning building ; bat those belonging to Mr. Jury were not touched until the arrival of that gentleman on the scene, those present evidently being under the impression that all the horses in the stable had been taken out. Mr. Jury’s horses certainly ind a narrow escape. When that gentleman arrived he found the } doors of his stable and coach-house locked, but it did net take him long to effect an on- trance; and with the assistance of Chief- Engineer Large he soon succeeded in res- cuing the horses. When these two went into the stable they found that the fire was

raging all about the stalls in which the horses were, that the rugs covering the animals were burned, and that in one case the halter
rope was burned off short and the horse was loose. The mane of one of the horses was also burned off close to the neck, and the ears of the other slightly scorched. Mr. Jury lost some harness, two buffalo robes and a quantity of hay and straw. The top was also burned off one of his buggies. The
e conduct of the person or persons who gave
the firemen and citizens to understand that all the horses had been removed from the burning building when such was not the cannot be too severely condemned.

In the meantime it will be the duty and the interest of Canada to pursue the even tenor of her way, quietly developing her own resources and finding out new markets for her surplus products. Experience has taught that we have uothing to expect from either party in the States. The shameless inconsistencies of Cleveland's behavior just before the last Presidential election will not soon be forgotten by Canadians.

Notes and Comments.
—A Chicago newspaper says: ‘* We have legislated to extinguish Canada, and yet that cheeky cvuntry proposes, as usual, to have a Thanksgiving Day in November.”
—With much candor the St. Thomas Journal declares: ‘‘We are not of those who think that Canada must dance as Uncle Sam plays the tune, ner do we believe that the great body of the Liberal psriy have any such views.” ‘*Possibly not,” remarks the Empire, **but the Grit leaders talk as if they do.”
—The subject of compulsory education is being discussed in New York. Although the situation there is complicated by an en- ormous immigration, yet many of the ar- guments used by Mr. Draper, superintend- ent of public instruction, are applicable here. When, he says, the public taxes it- self to support free schools because they are indispensable, the public must do whatever is necessary to secure that result. Gen- erally, he says, the whole subject is left to the mercy and caprice of local communities, and the result is ‘‘enormous waste and in- efficiency.” The statements here referred to were contained in an address delivered by Mr. Draper in Illinois, where a com- pulsory law exists; and, according to Har- per's Weekly, the meeting at which he spoke passed a resolution declaring that the attendance of 1890 was better than that of 1889 by 16,000 pupils, that the attendance Sen schools had increased by 6,000,
that the increase in the aggregate num- ber of days of attendance for the year was

The wind was high at the time and the flames quickly spread to the other barn, outbuild- ings and dwelling house, all of which soon notwithstanding the efforts made to savethem.

A Bonanza for Springhill. REV. W. C, WILSON SECURES GIFTS AGGREGATING $4,500 roR His New CHURCH AND PARISI HOUSK.
Last Sunday morning at All Saints ¢ hurch, Springhill, N.8., the Rector, who had been visiting the United States for the past few weeks, announced that he had returned with gitts amounting to $4,500 towards the bui'ding fund of the proposed church buildings in Springhill. Three thousand dollars of this was the gift of an Episcopalian, who although weil known to the Rev. W. Chas, Wilson, wished the gift to be an anonymous one. The $3,000 is to be specifically used in the coustiuction of a parish house, which will contain a Sunday echool 1eom, temperance hall, reading room, aad large room whereia will be held sewing and cooking. ‘J he munifi- cent gift will provide a useful and weleome adjunet to the ordinary work of the parish, avi is the first of its kind in the diocese. One thousand one hundred dollars was given by American friends towards the fund for the new church; and about four hundred dollars for the proposed cottage hospital. The con- gregation received the welcome news with much pleasure, and a specizl meeting of the px ishioners was called for to take place the following evening. =_>°--*
A Remarkable Offer.
For several years a Boston business house has made persons on farms, in towus and the suburbs of cities who keep poultry, few cr many, remarkable offers of premi- ums payable in gold, some as high as fifty dollars to the first and not less than five dollars to any winner of a premium. The best thing about these annual cffers, is that the firm making them is strictly re- liable and the premiums have always been promptly paid as agreed in gold coin. Fifty dollar premiums do not “*grow on every bush” as the old saying is, and we have no doubt to many who competed for them, the amount received came in handy to help pay the necessary bills of «a bard winter, or if not, buy some luxury that the
family absolutely needed, but otherwise could not afford. This same firm, I. 58. Johnson & Co., 22 Custom House St.,
Boston, Mass., authorize us to state to cur readers that they have prepared an cffer of similar premiums this year as_ heretofore, with one very important improvement and that is, so that the first winner stands a fair chance of getting premiums amounting to ope hundred and fifty dollars in gold. Why! that is as gocd as fifty dollars per
month for the three winter months. Its worth trying for any way. Another valuable feature of the offers
this year is that no one who competes need fail to get something out of the several offers ; either in premiums or commissions. Johnson & Co., will send fuli particulars free to any person who sends them their address on a postal card. These premium offers are made in conuection with the use of Sheridan’s Condition Powder to make hens lay. That Powder has been manu- factured and suld for over thirty years. I. S. Johnson & Co., 22 Custom House Sr, Boston, Mass., (the only makers of Sheri- dan’s Condition Powder,) wi!l send for 5) cents, two packs of Powder: for $1.00 five packs; for $1.20 a large 2 1-4 1b. can, post paid; six cans for $5, express prepaic, Six cans will pay a good dividend. I. 38. Johnson & Co., will also send to anyone asking for itacopy of the best poultry magazine published, free; The paper one year and a large can of Powder for $1.59.
