THE DAILY EXAMINER. | SEPTEMBER 16, 1889.

Renator Prowse.

Ow Saturday last the Honorable Samuel Prowse, M. E. C., and M. P. P. for the Fourth Electoral District of King’s County, was called to the Senate of Canada to fill the vacancy caused by the appointment of Senator Carvell to the Lieutenant-Govern- orship of this Province. Tue EXAMINER, in an editorial lately published, expressed its views on the proposed appointment, and has nothing more to add except to say that the appointment is an excellent one, and to congratulate Senator Prowse on his promo- tion to a position which he is eminently

qu slified to fill.

_ «eo — Grit Blundering.

fue Toronto World, a independent

makes the following comments

newspaper, upoa the present policy, or rather lack of

policy, of the Grit party

“If reports speak truly, all is not serene within the Dominion opposition these days, neither as regards the question of leadership nor the question of policy. Many of ou Ontario reformers are only now beginning to tind out what two terrible blunders these were that the party managed to commit it- self to within recent years. First, that it was Ontario's interest to do all she could for the expansion of provincial rights; and along with that te cut down to the lowest the powers of the Dominion. As recently as the end of fume Sir Richard Cartwright solemnly re- affirmed the doctrine that to extend provincial rights was an essential part of liberalism, and that to aggrandize the province and to lessen the power ot the nation was the duty of every true reformer. We call this bogus reform doctrine, and, under the circumstance, particu- lar treason to Outario. For unquestionably, of all the provinces, Ontario has the most t lose and the least to gain by the craze fer pro- vincial rights; while conversely her interest lies all in "ke eping the central power —other- wise the Dominion-—strong. The other grit

ader lay in imagining that the commercial

surrender of Canada to the United States

would “take” with the people of this country,

which it appears it will not, after all. Two

«uch heavy blunders as those are enough to

make eold shades for a party for a generation », at least.

{t is because of just such blundering that ihe people of the Dominion have become | disgusted with the Grit party that they invariably lose no opportunity of relegating the supporters thereof to the cool shades of pposition.

e+ O+e

The Fisheries Question.

Tas New York Times, ia the course of a Fishery

recent article on the Atlantic

dispute, makes the following remarks :—

‘‘ A poist that is likely to be brought to the early consideration of congress 1s that with the present fishery season, or at all events before the beginning of another, the term of the modus vivendi furnished by the Dominion expires. The purpose in granting it was to afford time for the deliberate con- sideration of the treaty which was rejected lust year, andin case of that rejection to provide a peaceful method of carrying on the fishing indastry until some other mode of settling the points in controversy should be reached. There is no question that it has accomplished its purpose, se far as furnishing certain accommodations is concerned, and the recent statement that twiee as many licenses have issued this year to. American vessels as last shows that it is growing in favor. But meanwhile the interval has not been improved {to make any progress toward the final adjustment of the fishery dispute. Presumably, when the two years expire and a new season is to begin, those American fisher- men who have availed themselves of the privileges granted under the modus vivendi i of buying bait, ice, and other sup- transhipping freight, sbipping and lauding men, and so on, will be sorry to lose them, if taere is nothing to take their place.”

veen

heense

i plies,

The Halifax Herald comments upon the foregoing as follows ;

‘One of the principal arguments urged against the treaty inthe United States, was that the ‘commercial privileges” were not worth the license fee demanded by the Canadian Government. The contention pretty well exploded. The fact that the United States fishermen are availing themselves of {the privileges of secur- s,-each year in ever iucreasing is proof positive on that point. Yankee fishermen are not likely to continue buying what does not pay; and the fact that they continue to take out licenses under the modus cvvendi is pretty conclusive evidence that they find that it pays them to do so. What effect the demonstration of that fact may have on the Republican majority in the U. S. Senate is hard to foretell.”

Narrow Escape.

On Saturday evening last, while Miss McLean, daughter of Mr. T. A. McLean, of the firm of McKinnon & McLean, was driving to the wharf at Rocky Point, her horse gsuddenly became unmanagable. He ran in the direction of the wharf, and Miss McLean, thinking that he would stop when he got to the head, did not try to bring him up. But he did not stop when he reached there, and, when he got on the slip, it being inclined, he could not do so. Just as he reached the edge he reared, and, before the occupant of the carriage could do do anything tohelp herself,the animal plung- edinto theriver and immediately sank. The young girl, however, disengaged herself from the carriage after she had gone under, and cried for help. A boy on the wharf at the time, seeing the peril Miss McLean was in, ran to his wagon and took the rope reins off his horse, which he threw to the girls assistance She got hold of the rope, to which she clung until a man, coming down to meet the boat, saw her, and after some trouble, hauled her up to terra firma, Miss McLean escaped with few injuries, except the wet- ting and fright which she received. The horse did not rise once. It is believed the weight of the carriage kept him down, The cause of the runaway, it is believed, was that on their way down the young girl in company with Miss Strickland stopped at a pump to give the horse some water. The latter alighted from the wagon to pump the water into the trough, and it is thought that some went into the horse’s ear, thus causing him to become fractious. The horse was a valuable young beast, and we understand it was Mr. McLean’s intention to put him on the track this fall. The horse and carriage were afterwards hauled up and the harness taken off the horse. Miss MeLean’s escape was something next tou miraculous, for had she become en- tangled in any way with the wagon, she surely would have been drowned.

Paris, Sep. 13.—Boulanger has issued a manifesto to the electors of Montmartre. In it he says: ‘If 1 ask the suffrages of the people it, is because | represent—not the personality depicted by my calumnia- tors, but the national sentiment aspiring to throw off the burdens of growing debt and intolerable iniquities and humiliation to which the country is subjected.

CopeNHAGEN, Sept. 13.—It is rumored from various quarters that a large number of nihilists have recently arrived from Den- mark.

Lonvox, September 13.—The municipal authorities of Liverpool have voted an appropriation of £30,000 for the purpose of construction depots for storage of petroleum at isolated points, thus reducing to a minimum the dangers arising from fire and explosions.

Sueet Harsor, Sep. 13.—Capt. Perry, of the sehr. Ella B., arrived to-day from Pictou. He reports heavy fires all along the coast from Canso to Beaver Harbor. There is a big fire raging to-day between here and Mushaboon caused by blue berry pickers.

Business is flourishing, and trading generally on a good financial basis. Mr. Martin says the Mani- toba Government are determined to fight out the abolition of dual language and sep- arate schools, whatever the consequences may be.

Paris, Sept. 13.—The latest government report of the wheat crop in France shows thetyield to be 111,460,218 hectolitres, against 98,740,728 in 1888.

Bereavement.

The deuce gae wi’ that lron Horse,

He's a’ways parting friens fragether : He’s ta’en my lass aws’ frae me

And is rattlin’ o’er the mainlan’ wi’ her. O hear him ca’; he’s neighin’ shyll ;

My bonnie lass, maun ye gae thither, To gae wi’ him o’er mony a hill,

And we, nae mair, can gae tagither.

Oh, mony a mither’s tear he'll draw,

And mony a heart he’s broken ever ; He tak's the young folks far awa’,

And some he brings na back, na, never. He taks our Island lads far west,

And taks our lasses half-way thither : He took the lass that I lo’ed best,

And we, na mair, can gae tagither.

My wail is heard in Southport noo—

Nae owl's mair sad in moonlight glimmer; My heart replies, wi’ songs 0’ woe,

To the songs o’ birds and flowers o’ simmer. May she ha’ dreams for fear she be

Forgetting me when dudes gae with her : On the nightmare's back I'll gae and see

if we twa in dreams can gae tagither.

Saw ye the hill where grew the birch ;

‘Twas there I tound the flower sae bonnie I thoucht 1’d bring wi’ me to church :

But ‘twas snatched frae me by th’ Iron Pony. That flower grew by a flower ca’d mint,

I chose the ane and Joe took t’ither : Would I had chosen that sweet mint,

For noo we twa could gae tagither.

Store Points.

Pay as large wages as are reasonable, and as your business will afford.

An employer should be a counsellor and a friend to his clerks and salesmen,

Dont say to your employees “‘ now if yuo dont like this place get another,” when you know they cannot get another.

Take care that you know to whom you al- low credit and to whom not, If approached by a friend for eredit, have the courage to refuse it if he is unworthy of trust

Politeness is just as neccessary in the store as in the private residence, and the clerk or Merchant who possesses it and an obliging disposition will not lack friedds or custom- ers.

Your prices, if to high, must send your trade to other stores where they think they can buy to greater advantage. If too low, it will do the same, thinking that where the prices are so low the goods must be of infer- lor quality. — Dry Goods Chronic/e. >_>
