But itis now reported by the Toronto Globe avd other organs of the Liberal Party that a clean sweep will be made of the Deputy Ministers appointed by the late government.

Remove that and the whole fabric falls to the ground. We shall then have that spoile system the disadvantages of which have beep eeen ir the United States. Under it the parties will have more willing and anxious workers at elec- tions, but the business of the country will be sure to suffer.

The National Policy may well be permitted to stand for a good many yeare lo come. ere MR. MKINLEY’S OPINIONS. In the course of his short aldress to the delegations that have waited upon him, uttered things which may well Mr. McKinley bas some gocd be marked and inwardly digested by the people of Canada. We quote and commend the following: “ Whatever the farmer is :uflering to day he is suffering because his competitors have increased in numbers, and his best customers are out of work. I deo not know that we can decrease the number of his competitors, but with the adoption of a true American Protective policy we can set hia best customers to work. We have suffered in our foreign and in our domestic trade both, during the past three years. The home market is the best friend of the farmer. Itis his best market, his only reliable market, his own natural marke’. He should be protected in its enjoyment by wise tariff legislation, and his home market should not be permitted to be destroyed by lessening the demand for DAILY EXAMINER } ie of American workingmen, and thereby | revenue, or that new taxes can be sub liminishing the demand for agricultural products “Tt is a great deal better to open the mills of the United States to the labor ot Am-| ; erica than to open the mints of the United | coinage of silver idea is too tame for him. | States to the silver of the world. No one approxi. | S¥ffers so much from cheap money as the i laborers and farmers. They are the first to feel its bad effects and the last to recover from them. This bas been the uniform experience of all countries; and here, as elsewhere, the poor and not the rich are always the greatest suilerers from every attempt to debase our mouey. It would fall with alarming severity upon invesrt- ments already made; upon insurance com panies and their policy holders; upon savings banks and their depositors; upon building and loa: and their members; upon the savings of thrift; upon pensioners and their families, and upon wage earners and the purchasing power of their wages. “There is notuing more vital to a Gov- ernment like ours than the sanctity of Jaw. i st | ver all, above | and observed ‘ \ nce aw, Which associations yu OLIC ‘% selves bave made and or- ; obiization of cilize hip and the chief source ut safviy to th Republic.

Honesty, like patriotism, can neither be bounded by State or sectional line. Sectionalism has given place to a trae national spirit, and patriOtism has smootbed the asperities of partyism, until the preservation of the national honor constitutes the great aim and purpose of all patriotic American cit- izens. —_- ee. - NOTES AND COMMENTS. —The Toronto Globe declares that Can- ada needs a Nationa!

The use of lights is unsportsmanlike, and, if we mistake not, iliegal. We hope that it will be discontinued. —Torento Globe: Mr. J. R. Dongali told the Christian Endeavorers at the Ottawa convention a very forcible truth when he said that it was important to have a prohibition law, but it was far more im- portant to have a prebibition people. Pro- hibition laws without pablic sentiment be- hind them are of no more use than an en- gise without steam. —Yarmouth Times: The Liberal party have promised to reduce taxation, and next session we are told it is to be done. Their estimates of expenditure for the current year now show a delicit of eight millions. How they are to provide for the expendi- ture of the future and reduce the revenue is a problem that Mr. Fielding will have his whole time occupied in solving. —An Ottawa despatch to the St. John Telegraph reports that “ Hon.

For years past Mr. Tarte’s friends have been insinuating that the con- servative party profited by the $5,900 which he accepted from Pacaud. To-day the witness declared that he had corrupted no one with the money,and that Hon. Mr. Tailloo and the other conservative leaders knew nothing about it. Regarding the $2,000 note which had been paid out of the Baie Chaleurs money, Canada’s new Min- ister of Public Works explains the scandal as follows: “Hon. Chas. Langelier, who was then provincial secretary of Quebec under Mercier, made a note for $2,000, and I endorsed it, but as I did not get any of the proceeds, I did not trouble myself about the payment.” — Monetary Times: The collective aims of @ party can only be seen in its formal d-claration of principles, as a whole, and of such declaration nothing which the leaders would admit to be binding can be found outside the four corners of the Ottawa platform erected three years ago. If a revenue tariff, enshrined in that plat- form, implied a considerable reduction of customs duties, as was generally under- stood, the attainment of that object is made more difficult by passing total es- timates that must outstrip the revenue, Whether the excuse given for these esti- ma‘es, name'y, the obligations assumed bythe late Government, be valid or not, does not alter the fact that when the re- | quirement is so high that the revenue will be inadequate to cover the expenditure, the difficulty of decreasing duties becomes insuperable, unless it can be shown that some duties are above the revenue point, American labor aud diminishing the pay too high to produce the largest possible seasonable Wear For | School Children.

Papers to hand Jast evening brought ad- ditional particulars of the death of Arch- bishop Benson. He arrived at Hawarden on Saturday evening on his return from a visit in the north of Ireland. He appeared then to be in robust health, and expressed to Mrs. Gladstone his great gratificativn over his Iriah tour, He arose early on Sunday and attended the early communiop with his wife and others. The weather was bitterly cold, and Mr. Gladstone did not attend church. At 10 o'clock the Archbishop and Mrs. Benson, Henry Gladstone, Mrs. Gladstone, Mrs. Drew and Dorothy Drew went to the morning ser- vice. The whole party occupied the Glad- stone pew near the chancel. Directly the service began, and while the rector, Rev. Stephen Gladstone, was read- ing the absolution, Archbishop Benson, who was kneeling, was seen to twitch in the arm for a few minutes and then col- lapse altogether. Henry Gladstone, finding that the arch- bishop had had a dangerous seizure, called to the clerk and others, who carried him into the librery adjoining the rectory. Doctors were hastily summoned. The stricken prelate was gasping painfully for breath. Applications of ether and other means to induce artificial respiration were resorted to. Rev. Mr. Gladstone, the rector, who had left the church when the archbishop was carried out, returned and announced the illness to the congregation, who were waiting in suspense. He asked for their prayers during the litany. All efforts to rally the distinguished patient proved in vain, and he died in a few minutes. Henry Gladstone whispered the news to the rector, who announced the archbishop’s death, the pews causing a profound sensation among tbe worship- persia the church. The hymo Forever with the Lord was played, all present standing and showing themselvea to be deeply affected. Mra. Gladstone conveyed the sad news to ber husband, who was greatly shocked and distressed by it. Afterwards remark- ing On the event, Mr. Gladstone said : “He died like a soldier.” The official medical announcement of the death to the coroner stated that it was due to apoplexy. The medica! attendants concurred In the opinion that heart failure caused the death, but that this was direct- ly due tothe seizure. Mrs. Benson was present at the time of her husband’s death, aid she afterwards went to Hawarden castle. The bells were tolled and references were made to the death of the primate of all England in waay of the churches inthe kingdom to- night. In this connection we have tocorrect & mistake into which THe Examiner’s tele- graphic correspondent has fallen, and which, we note, has appeared in other newspapers. Mr. Gladstone did not, as stated, appoint the late Archbishop of Canterbury. No Bishop or Archbishop of the Church of England has ever been appointed by a British Premier. The Premier nominates or recommends the appointment to the Dean and Chapter, who elects him or who may reject him of they see cause todo so. This is well un- derstood by many of those who, in a loose way eay or wriie thatthe Premier “aj- points” etc. But persons who are not well informed uponchurch matters are apt to receive @ wrong impression from the use of the word as employed by our tele- graphic corres pordent. CIVIL SERVICE REFORM, Writing in the October Canadian Maga- zine of “Civil Service Reform,” A. H. U. Colquhoun says :— “The present controversy takes a wide range, since it includes the conduct of all sorts of officials, both permanent and tem - porary in the outside and inside services, and the precedent now about to be set can- not fail to have deep and lasting effects upon the whole syetem of patronage. It will be admitted that an official who dis- plays what is termed “offeasive” partizan- ship must, to some degree, reglect the im- art'al discharge of the duties of his office. There may be cases where his removal be- comes expedient. But will it be seriously argued that a reform is effected when he is replaced by another partizan, whose chief merit will consist of his activity on bebalf of a different set of politicians? If the present Government iatend to make exten- sive, or indeed any changes in thecomposi- tion of the Civil Service, surcly the friends of good administration in Canada are numerous enough to insist that the reconstruction shall take place atthe instance of some impartial body— that a wise principle shall govern the new policy, and that it shall not be dictated by a mere demand for plunder. “If there is any force of independent opinion in Canada- and sometimes this appears more than doubiful—it should ex- ert all its influence at this juncture to put the Civil Service on a strictly non-partizan basis, rather than to submit passively to the inauguration of asystem of grabwhich must ultimately demoralize officialdom and lower the tone of political life. Although the relegation of vexed issues to Commis- sions is not popular in Canada from pre- vious attempts in this direction, the present question could be better dealt with by a body of this kind than by a Govern- ment at the mercy of importunate friends, and prevented, perhaps, from carrying out, as we may assume it wishes to do, a. coand, progressive policy in a fair, states— | manlike manner.” _-————~+ao——__— ~~ CITY COUNCIL MEETING. Tue regular mouthly meeting of the C..y Council was held last evening, Mayor Daweon presiding, and every member of the Board being present. After the transaction of preliminary bu ine 8, resolution was passed aprrov- ing of the conduct of the Mayor in remit- ting $300 to DeWolfe, Son & Co., Halifax, on account of watering cart. Mavor Dawson submitted a letter re- ceived by him from Hon. L. H. Davies, confirming his telegram re the granting of $4,000 towards the Park Roadway fund, and a resolution was passed authorizing the Mavor to write Mr. Davies, informing him that it was the intention of the Coun- cil to build the roadway around Fort Edward, according to the original applica tion to the Dominion Government. A petition was read from certain resi- dents of Ward Five, suggesting the advisa- bility «fc atending the new street leading from Stewart Street throuzh the land of the Connolly estate, a d‘stance of about 100 feet. Laid on the tatle. Councillor Taylor reported verbally re the Bolger drain. He said that a sewer would have to be built from the cellar of Mr, Bolger’s house to the river, in order to effect a remedy. The sewer would cost in the vicinity of $200. No action was taken. On motion of Councillor Hooper it was ordered that an electric light be placed on Upper Hillsborough Street, at or near the residence of J. D. Reid. Adjourned sine die.
