The opponents of “the Government, for reasons best known to themselves, have been circulating a statement to the effect that the number of employes in the Gov- ernment departments at Ottawa increased from 480 in 1878 to 1,180 in 1885, an even increase of 700. Reference to the Public Accounts for 1885, giving the class and salary of each official from the highest to the lowest, shows the number employed that year, the last for which returns have been printed, to be 751 instead of 1,180 as alleged by the opponents of the Govern-

ment. Here are the figures :—

475 75!

In these totals are included not ouly per- manent officials but extra clerks and mes- sengers who receive from thirty to seven hundred dollars a year. The vitice of Re- ceiver General has been abolished, and that of Auditor General established. Indian Affairs and Railways and Canals are new departments established since 1878. Apart from these changes, almost the sole increase has taken place in the post oftice and In terior departments, the latter including North West affairs.

The increase that hastaken place is jus tifiable because of the increased work. How vastly the work of Government has enlarged since 1878 a few figures will show. In 1878-9 the amount of the money ordei business transacted was $11,749,713, and in 1885 $17,246,775 ; in the same period the amount of currency issued and re deemed increased from $2,946,010 to $6,- 967,579, the number of Government sav- ings banks’ accounts augmented from 27.- 445 tu 73,322 ; the number of letters sent and See by the Department of Agri- culture increased from 49,688 to 154,839, the number of letters sent and received by the Department of the Interior in a single month last year was greater than in the whole of 1878; the correspondence of the Department of State more than doubled in a single year; the number of post offices has increased in five years from 5,773 to 7,084. Then, since the present Govern- ment came into office the Northwest Terri- tories have been opened up, and an enormous amount of departmental work has been entailed in organizing a system of government there, in the management of the Indians and of the public lands. The militia force has been rendered more effi- cient, both by increased expenditure upon the volunteer foree and by the establish- ment of permanent schools of infantry and cavairy. The construction of the Pacitic railway, too, has involved new and import- ant duties on the Department of railways and canals.

The opponents of the Government take precious good care that the people shall know as few of the facts as possible.

The Canadian Pucific railway has already benetitted the country to the full amount of the interest upon the sum expended on it by the Government. Take the increased values ef land along the whole route ofthe railway, as shown by the assessments of last year; take the gains made by the farmers in de creased cost of transport of produce; take the thriving towns that have sprung up as by magic ail along the line from Ottawa to Van couver City; take the rapidly rising city of Winnipeg and calculate the say ing effected by the Canadian Pacitic railway in the one article of coal, which has dropped from $22 aton to

$9 or $10; take the development of the ranching districts rendered possible by the construction of the Canadian Pacific

railway ; take the employment given by the Canadian Pacific railway evidenced in the tact that its pey roll last year was $4,300,000, with a total stail of employes numbering 14,550 ; take the fact that the farmers of Manitoba have sent out of that flourishing province five million bushels of last year’s wheat for which they obtained higher prices than were paid on the other side of the line; take the virtual control of the tea trade of this continent,given by the construction of the Canadian Pacitic railway. Sum up all these and other gairs that might be mentioned and the country has already secured advan.ages which are so great that they alone are a complete justification of the policy of the Government in expending the money needed to aid the Canadian Pacific railway. In addition to these there are the gains which have already resulted from the sales of Dominion lands—gains which will go on increasing year after year, and which have amounted already, since the railway was com- menced, to over tive million dollars. ee ooo

& Temperance Mariyr.

The despatches a few days ago contained the brief, and to most people uninteresting, announcement that John Arensdorf had been arrested at Davenport, Lowa, on the charge of muider. There is a history connected with his arrest which tells of an unsuccessful attempt to stamp out a vice which defied the law, of the intervention of one noble man in the cause of right, of his mart r om, and of the subsequent partial submission of — the opponents of justice and order, to the demands of society.

The State of Iowa is a prohibition state. One of its principal towns is Sioux City, with a population of twenty thousand souls. The chief industry of Sioux City, despite the pro- hibitory enactment, has been whiskey selling. For its population of twenty thousand people, it had last year 117 saloons-—one saloon for every 170 residents, men, women and children. It is obvious that al] these drinking dens, even if licensed by the law, were more than the necessities of the town required. They were undoubtedly established tc serve the surrounding country ; and they served it well, for the roughs for miles around gathered in Sioux City and made it a_verit- able pandemonium. The churches protested ayalust the whiskey trailic and the numerous vices which sprung from it, but it was to no purpose. Respectable people, church mem- vers, the very administrators of the law, came to the de fence of the illegal business, declaring that the existence of the town wes staked upon its continuance. Just when the scandal

was at its height, Sioux City having been given over completely to saloon rule, Rev.

George c. H: ade lock,

Me thodist nilnister,

D>. D., a stalwart fearless came to take charge of

the Methodist congregation. Dr. Haddock had been ina prohibition fight before. In

Wisconsin he advocated the cause so energeti- cally as to win for himself the bitter enmity of the men, and a sound thrashing from an augry mob in the bargain. On his arrival at S.oux City, Dr. Haddock attended exclusively to aed affairs, Bat finding that the liquor evil was growing, that the law ollicers refused to suppress it, and that the meagre attempts to bring law breakers to justice were the work of women, who had to submit not only to fre- quent defeats but to jeers and insults of the whiskey mob, he declared that as a man he must interfere. His remark was: ‘I can never stand by and suffer women todo the fightink while the men hide behind their petti- cvats.” So Dr. Haddock became a witness himself to the illegal selling of whiskey, and eutered information against the law break-

ers, To a friend he said, prophetically : “When I sined tioe informations I signed my death warrant.” And so it turned out. A Saloonkeepers’ Association

was formed, and money was collected for the defence. When the trials came on, roughs from various part of the State gathered in town, and made night and day hideous with their debaucheries. For along time respect- able people were afraid to retire for the night, lest the threats of disorder should be carried in execution and be followed by bloodshed. During the excitement Dr. Haddock was fre- quently told that his fate was sealed, and that he was to die at the bands of an assassin. But

this did not deter him. He continued to push the trials and to collect the evidence neces- sary to the prosecution of the whiskey sellers and the closing of their places of entertain- ment. One night Dr. Haddock drove a: few miles into the country to gather some neces- sary testimony. He was followed by mur- d ous men. By an accident he escaped these pursuers; but it was only that he might fall into the hands of others. He had returned to the city, and was just leaving his stable when a neighboring saloon emptied itself, and the half-drunken men rushed forward in a body to assault him. Turning to meet his cs- sailants, a bullet went through his brain and he fell dead.

A farcical inquest followed. The coroner, afraid of the liquor interest, actually refused to hear testimony pointing to the culprits, and the mayor, also under intimidation, de- clined to receive information upon which an arrest could be made. The affair would have ended with these official attempts to shield the murderers, bad it not been for Frank Hill, the manager of the Sioux City Tribune. This gentlemen secured from Governor of the State a pledge of immunity for the participator in the crime who would first confess, Armed with this he extracied from a man named Leavitt a statement under oath of the circum- stances of the assassination, and it result of this siatement that Arensdo:f was arrested, Since then four captured, and the chances are now that the law will be vindicated, for the liquor ring in Sioux City is broken. The bullet aimed at Dr. Haddock in defence of the tariff has, it would seem, done more than its sender ex- pected. It has freed the city from whiskey

control, and given tw the ues vb DP adliicog
