Hon. D. A. Macdonaid.
(California Commercial Record).
Although he had nothing personal at stake in the result of the election, it is to be doubted if any other man in the party felt more gratified at the success of the Democracy than Mr. Macdonald. He has always been a warm admirer of President Cieveland, and on his first nomination he worked very faithfully for his election. Exerting marked influence, as he does, for he possesses thousands of warm friends, the majority this city gave for the ticket was as much ewing to him as to any other. Four years ago he again tuok very active part in the campaign, and with his earnest endea- vors during the late canvass our readers are familiar. And not alone did he personally labor, in season and out of season, but his contributions were most generous. When we consider that he was not a candidate for office during this period—made no effort for it, ix fact—we can well understand he was influenced it: principle by what he did. He has more reason, therefore, for satisfac- tion in the result of the election than those personally interested, for in the triumph there entered no material element.
Mr. Macdonald is an old Californian, and all his life has been a consistent Demo- crat. He has held important cflices here, and had he consented he could at different periods have been nominated for the May- oralty, no doubt. His record in politics is » most creditable one. It is a strange re- cord, too, inasmuch as we find him con- senting to stand and lending strength to the ticket when there was the least hope of election. When, owing to reasons that at different times cast gloom over a party, the Democratic party had little hope for suc- cess, then D. A. Macdonald came boldly and aggressively to the front and stimulated the discouraged to battle, He was elected, needless to gay, and his strength with the people pulled less popular men through. This year he never allowed any voter to forget the national ticket in the heat of the local fight. He made it prominent in his arguments. When we consider his work all through these years, and the large expense he has been te in conjunction with his dis- interested motives, he most certainly, now that the party has achieved such a splendid victory and is again in power, in the hey- dey of its power, indeed, deserves well at its hands. Faithful, indef«tigable workers such as he are wel! worthy of high remem- brance.
{Mr. Macdonald isa native of this Pro- vince, and has many friends here. |
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Letter from the Mail Carrier.
Sir,—Il observe in THe Examiner to date that the Post Office Department is again calling for tenders for the Railway Station and street letter boxes, and that the late contractor did not give satisfaction in these services. I beg leave to Gefy the director or any other clerk in said t of- fice to find any one fault in my duty in either mail or railway. My reason for leaving the mails is the reduction of 72 cents per day to 45 cents per day, which could not feed my horse, or pay the ex- —_ of my express, sleigh, harness, etc.
hat had Itolive on? Still I offered to run the mails according to agreement.

Appin Road Notes.
For some time past the inhabitants of this Road and surrounding places have been enjoying the religious teaching given from night to night by the indefatigable Method- ist minister of Tryon, the Rev. J. Kilburn King, who has gained our affections and **bound our souls fast.” More than thirt persons have found the Saviour aaa his preaching, and are now earnestly en- deavoring to reach after the higher life. At Mr. King’s suggestion, a new church is likely to be built next spring, the founda- tion for which has been prepared on land given by Mr. Richard Cutliffe—and so the old schoolhouse will be saperseded tor re- ligious worship. Up to the present about one hundred dollars have been subscribed by the people of the settlement. The new building will seat about one hundred and fifty persons; and if the expected help is forthcoming, we hope to have a church that will be an ornament and a convenience to the piace.
Recently a new burial ground, situate opposite Mr. Lock’s farm, was presented by James Gordon, Esq Three families already take a melancholy interest in it, and there is uo donbt that most of the settlement will use it because of its great convenience. The site is one of great at- tractiveness, well suited for its purpose, and can be seen from nearly every house on the road.
The grain and potato crops have been an almost complete failure—with some persons a disaster. The wheat is very poor and there is a great shortage in the oats—for instance, about 85 bushels off 104 acres ot oats—of each about a quarter of a crop. We hope to have enough straw to feed the cattle, but will have to bed them with saw dust or oat-hulls, and so pull through the coming winter.

The Late Sir Johan Macdonald.
(London Times, Thursday, Nov. 17.)
The Late Sir John Macdonald, as became astrong party leader, left many bitter opponents ia Canada ; but few of them, we are sure, grudge the honor that was yesterday done to his memory. Thanks tv the initiative of the Imperial Federation League and the support of many admirers of the deceased statesman’s career, a bust of him has been placed in the crypt of St. Paul’s Cathedral among “be Lares and Penates of our commonwealth.” The bust is from the hand of a Canadian sculptor, Mr. George Wade, who has frequently exhibited good work at the Royal Academy and it was yesterday unveiled by Lord Rosebery. There was a distinguished com- pany, gathered from both of the great political parties and from the chief colonies; Lord Ripon, Mr. Stanhope, Sir John Abbott may be taken as representative names. Lord Rosebery, in his brief speech, said nothing of Sir John Macdonald as a party man, but spoke of his devotion to the Imperial Idea and the imperial flag. The symbol of “the greatest secular agency for good now known to mankind” is fitly appealed to when we commemorate & man who did so much for England in the vast regions across the sea which own her sway. Sir John Macdonald was among the most devoted of her sons ; ‘‘a British sub- ject was I born,” says the incription on his bust, quoting a saying of his own, ‘‘and a British subject will I die.’ The meaning of the ceremony is to emphasize the race and the Empire ; to show once more that in the sacred centre vf vur common country there is a welcome forthe name and the efligy of the great colonists.
The late Canadian Premier showed his loyalty to England by his long service to Canada. How Canada has profited and is profiting by it, and by the service of his suc- cessors, Was well shown on Tuesday by Mr. Foster, the Finance Minister of the Dominion, in his address to the city branch of the Im- perial Federation League. Everybody vague- iy knows that Canada is prosperous, that its nsme stands well in the money market, that it grows enormous quantities of corn, thst its trade is large, and that its railway system and its system of water communication are ot wonderful extent; but this knowledge is not often made precise by statistics. Mr. Foster on Tuesday supplied some of them, He ad- mitted the indebtedness of Canada, but justi- tied it—as the indebtedness of the British Government might be justified—by the im- mense necessities of the country, and by the excellent position of its credit in the markets of the world. If Canada had not borrowed, she must have remained poor and backward State; she never would have been able to boast, as she now does. that she is within a short distance of completing “the most riag- nificent line of water communication in the world,” and that she has doubled her railway mileage in ten years, The important fact is that this great system is paying its way; that it is the necessary machinery of a vast and fertile area, for the whole produce of which there is a demand either in America or in Europe. One of the most interesting points in recent Canadian history is that the McKin- ley tariff, while it changed the direction of Canadian trade, did not diminish ite volume. On the contrary, the exports of Canada, which were $98,600,000 in 1891, rese in 1892 to $114,000,000. The increase is mainly to be accounted for by the growth of trade with Great Britain: Mr. Foster, who, like so many colonists, is not a free trader, is dissatisfied with this, and asks for differential treatment of the colonies by Great Britain; an Imperial Customs Union, infact. We doubt greatly whether he will get it, but the “‘treaties of 1865” which he denounces might well be ex- amined,
