; ; a eee THE DAILY EXAMINER. . - THE DAILY EXAMINER. ~ AUGUST 11, 1892. Notes and Comments. The credit redounding$to the Minister of Railways and the Government, from : having restored a daily train to the Cape Traverse branch, has been lost by the fact that only one second-class car is afforded and only one man to work it. The conducctor is left un- assisted by either brakeman or baggageman. — Recent rains have retarded the hay- making and have injured rather than bene- fitted the grain crops. The battle of the potato bug still continues. Fields in which the warfare has been constantly waged now promised well, bat those which have been neglected are a sad sight. The area under potatoes must be reduced for several years to come, and turnips and other roots—which are now growing famously—must be grown in- stead. — There was to be eternal smash in our outside trade, because, as ‘the natural market” was to be closed by the McKinley tariff, where could the products go? The exports for 1889 were $89,000,000; they went up to $96,000,000 in 1890; they climbed on to $98,000,000 in 1891, and, for 1892, the colossal figure of $100,000,000 is recorded. Yes: Canada can exist in spite of the hostile discrimination of the jealous Republic. —A growing demand for Canadian cheese in Britain isa good sign. From Montreal the shipments up to date ag- gregate 640,000 boxes compared with 524,- 000 boxes duriag the same period last year, an increase of 116,000 boxes. No one doubts that we keep our hold upon the English market by reason of the excellent quality of the cheese. This is a ‘* pointer” in respect to oats, eggs, butter and indeed every other product sent to the British market. The Britisher must have good quality. -The Aylmer Cazette desires to kaow what benefit Canada will derive from the en- largement of the St. Lawrence canals so as to permit vessels to make the trip from the lake ports to Liverpool without trans-shipment of Our contemporary seems to be under the im- pression that the effect of the deepened inland water-way will be to make Duluth, Chicago, Port Arthar and other ialand points, ocean vorts, 1f this apprehension were well-founded Now York, Boston, Philadelphia and other Atlantic ports in the United States. would stand to suffer relatively to as great a degree as Montreal But there is no danger of such ® contingency. in our day the canals are not at all likely to be so deepened as to make the passage of inland craft to Liverpool more rofitable than trans-shipment at Montreal. The advantage to Canada of canal enlarge- ment is cheaper transportatiou, and, there- fore, better prices to producers, —-The Scottish-American, published in New York, usually devotes an intelligent interest to the discussion of Oasnadian affairs. Referring to the anti-British feel- ing now prevalent in the United States, it says: ** It looks as if Congress were determined to destroy Canadian trade as much as pos- sible, and some fear that they will not stop at these high canal tolls, but will extend their influence to strike at those Canadian railroads whose traflic is largely derived from the United States. Of course Canada could ‘enforce reciprocal com- mercial relations’ in a similar manner. and there is no doubt that American interests would suffer greatly if the interstate traffic on the Canadian railways was suspended. But we think there is really no cause to fear that matters will be carried to such extremes. As we have hioted, the present retaliation policy has been adopted for a special purpose which will soon be served. After the presi- dential election Canada will probably have little difficulty in inducing Cong;ess to repeal the act just passed, and to establish more equitable commercial relations. —— Personal. Mr. Justice Strong, of the Supreme Court, will spend six months in Europe for his health. Alexander Gibson, the lumber king, has contributed five hundzed dollars to the St. John’s relief fund. Frank Kennedy, of the Bank of Nova Scotia, has been transferred to the Montreal agency on promotion. Dairy Commissioner Robertson has received & most satisfactory report from the New Brunswick dairy station. Mr. Douglass McLeod, of New York, who has been spending some holidays with his friends at Belfast, leaves by the steamer Car- roll this evening. Gen. Roberts is a good kind of man to send on @ peaceful mission to Afgbanistan. The people there have learned to respect him when hostilities were the matter in hand. Yesterday, His Honor the Lieutenant-Gov- ernor, being much better, received Admiral Sir John O. Hopkins and bis staff, with a small party of friends, on the lawn, where a hot collation was served from eix o’clook until eight. Mr. Blair, the liberal premier of New Brunswick, has returned from Europe con- vinced, he says, that the people of Canada are as prosperous as, and ic many cases more so, than those of foreign nations. Conservatives build their election platforms on this idea, and win. Mrs. L. H. Davies gave a very pleasant ‘At Home” at Riverside last night. Admiral Hopkins and the officers of the warships were resent, as well as many private guests. Jancing was kept up until about one o'clock. The grounds about the house were beautifully illuminated. Seeing how much the British Liberal leader needs repose, some members of his family are urging him to take a seat in the House of Lords under the title of Lord Liverpool. But the Grand Old Man says he does not desire a new name, and he adds, pathetically: “When I die I want men to read on my tombstone, ‘William Ewart Gladstone.’ ” In his evidence before the prohibition c»m- mission, Dr. J. T. Steeves, of the New Brunswick Asylum, is reported to have said that about one-eighth of the cases of insanity treated by him were directly due to intem- perance and another eighth indirectly due to this cause. He also stated that intemperance “stands pre-eminently as the leading cause of insanity.” The Toronto Glebe remarks: There is a name that will occur to many in connection with the high post of President of Toronto Universit Rev. G. M. Grent, prin- cipal of Queen's University, has occupied such & prominent position in educational matters that the public miod will nsturally single him out as a fitting person on whom the mantle of Sir Daniel could fall. Principal Grant is above all things an administrator, and in the opinion of many that isthe character of the man who should be next executive head of the Provincial University. The Government, however, may have some other name in view of equal acceptability. We do not know that Principal Grant’s name has ever been con- sidered, nor do we know that he would accept the position. JOSEPH HOWE. Principal Grant’s Tribute to His Memory. A Report Worth Reading. The long talked of ** Howe Memorial Picnic ” came off at Truro on the 9th inst. The speech making took place on the band pavillion, in the park. Dr. Grant's ad. dress was an able, eloquent and forcible picture of the great man whom Trurorians love and delight to honor. Every word that fell from his lips was listened to with rapt attention interspersed with hearty ap- plause. He said: **] think it right to tell you at the outset that in judging men liv- ing or dead I do not ask how much chaff is there or was there sbuut them, but how much wheat. Some men are thought wise because they have just sense enough to ho'd their tongues. Some men look well at adistance, but when you come closer they are seen to be nothing but chad. Now chaff is clean, but you cannot live upon it. Wheat is what you want, and when there is wheat there is chaff too. But what’s the use of grumbling about that? So what is the use of your proving that a man who conferred benefits on the country was not perfect. Montaigne says that every one of us has deserved hanging five or six times. You, perhaps, have escaped detection be- cause of your ‘** better art of hiding,” or because, as you live a private life, it has been no one’s interest to play the detective on you ; but does either cause give you the right to throw stones at a great man upon whom you have found a blot! Grant that HE DESERVED HANGING ONCE OR TWICE, But if all were known you deserve it five or six times. If this principle of judging men is sound, surely it should be applied to those who live in the fierce light that beats on rulers, and on the men whose brains and toils have helped to build up the state. Concerning every one of those, natural piety bids us say what Howe onc: wrote concerning Abraham Lincoln ; ** Let his faults and weaknesses be forgotten in the presence of his great services.” Such men we should honor, first, because we are commanded to honor the king, and the true king now is the representative of the people, especially their chief representa- tive; secondly, because in their position every defect is sure to be seen and sure to be exaggerated. If they are living, the one questionto be asked is: Are they loyal public servants? Are there in the constitution or on the statute book any memoria's of their work that will speak when they are dead ? HAVE THEY DONE ANYTHING LASTED or is likely to last? 1fs0, depend upon it, they must have sacrificed the present to the future; the seen to the unseen; that is, they must have had in them that principle of faith, without which it is impossible to please God. If we have eyes to see and hearts to rise above self-seekiung, we shall stand by such men when living, and shall honor their memories when dead. A nation that is ungrateful to its public ser- vants can have no future. All honor, then, to Truro fur desiring to petpetuate the name and the services of the greatest statesman Nova Sco'ia ever preduced, It is easy to honor great names that are rernoved from us by centuries, the men whose figures !oom large as they are seen through the mists of the past. Building their monuments may only show that we are the children of those who rejected and stoned them. It is harder to do justice to great men who recently died or who are stillamong us. They, perhaps, have hurt our feelings or fought against our prejudices or even our interests. How do we treat them ? PRINCIPAL GRANT ILLUSTRATED THIS POINT by referring to two public acts in the lives of Sir Adams G. Archibald and Sir Charles Tupper, of which he had been a witness soon after coming to Halifax in 1863. The first was the stand taken by Archibald, then leader of the opposition. Dr. Tupper as leader of the government, had brought in a bill to establish a system of common school education in Nova Scotia. It was uaderstood that many of his supporters were opposed tothe principal of taxation in the bill, and that they had indicated to the leader of the opposition that they would join him in voting against it. Archibald resisted the temptation and cordially sup- ported the measure. The second was the stand taken by Dr. Tupper in the house when many of his old political friends threatened him with their desertion and his defeat if he gave his support to the re- establishment of Dalhousie college as a pro- vincial university. The doctor tvok his stand with his usual straightforward bold- ness and declared that he was prepared for defeat, but not for going back upon any such measure. Principal Grant here in- cidentally stated that in coming out of the province building he met Mr. Howe, not then a member of the house, who said: ‘**Tupper has shown today that he’s a man. { tell you what, Grant, some day yet he will be in a tight place, and then I will re- member this and give hir. a good day’s work for it.” **These are the ocear‘ons and tests that try the stuff ot which men are made,” con- tinued Principal Grant. AND NOW WHAT ABOUT HOWE? First, of what stock did he come? I be- lieve in breed—in everything living, in plants, animals and in men. Howe came of the best possible stock. There was no better Puritan name than that ot Howe, —Oliver Cromwell's chaplain. And none of the Howes was better than Joe’s father THAT HAS ~the stout old united empire _loy- alist, who had left New England for! Nova Scotia rather than be false to what | he believed to be the zight. He became postmaster-general of the maritime pro- | vinces, and was a man who was always | ready to give his last sixpence to anyone | who needed it more than himself. Joe was born in 1804, in an old-fashioned cottage | onthe North west Arm. Far from bein precocious when a boy, an old lady who went to schvol with him told me that he, was a regular dunce. He was taken from! school, too, at the age of 13 and put to work in @ printer's office, where he had to begin on the lowest rung of the ladder, | He is thus a proof that a man can, or rather must, educate himself ; and that if he takes advantage of the opportunities every man has he may be none the worse of escaping the rack of early and multiplied written | examinations that are so dear to the official mind, HIS BEST EDUCATION WAS IN THE HOME SCHOOL and at his trade. He read the Bible and Shakespeare over and over again. These formed his style. Reading and talking with his father did even more for him. When at work he gave his leart to it, and when work was over he threw himself into outdoor sports of all kinds, He wasa capital swimmer, a jead shct, and good at every game that was played To the last of his life he encouraged ou‘ door games as one of the best educational forces, for he knew perfectly well that tie essence of education is not mere intellectual training, but the formation of character. How he educated himself in spite of little school- ing, anyone can see by re#ling his poem ‘Melville Island,” and reflecting that thoug3 he wrote it at the aye of seventeen, he had never been considerei a youthful prodigy. We talk of our wouderful edu- cational advantages, but how many of our boys at 17 have the command of English that this poem shows? Yet the very es- sence of intellectual] educatio: consists in a thorough mastery of our own language. But in getting the greater ws usualiy get che leas. The education tha: means for- mation of character is not accomplished by any patent methods. It deniands the in- fluence of a home where religion is ac- knowledged as all powerful. It needs time, +xample, patience love; and on the part of the acholar, willingness tu learn and a measure of reflection. As theage of 24 Howe bought the Nova Scotian and be- came editor, reporter, our own correspon- dent, and manager, as well es proprietor. During the next seven years HE MADE HIMSELF THOROUGHLY ACQUAINTED WITH NOVA SCOTIA by tours on foot and horseback through every nook and corner, as peop!e cannot know accuntry who see it only from @ Pullman car. He discovered romantic epots like this He loved to sit beside our lakes and streams and coasis. He wrote beautiful verses about “‘Oar Native Pines,” the ‘The Wild Cherry Cree,” ‘‘The Coaster,” ‘Lochaber Lake,” “The Stewiacke,” “Our Stceams,” ‘The Mayflower,” ‘The Firefly,” avd everything that the Nova Scotien loves. He got to know the people, too, at their own firesides, and often declared that the farmec’s fireside was the best of all colleges. These years gave him time for repose, tor reflection, for reading and for writing. They made sim a patriot. He felt there was no spot on earth liks Nova Scotia, and the dearest spot in it was his own home; and the grandest work fer man, the work in which he was engaged. This is the true basis for the healthy character. I believe in cosmopolitanism, but cosmopoli tanism divorced trom love of wife and child, love of native soil and native land, love of our fathers and love of country’s history, is simply another name for selfishness, Up to the age of 31 there was little sign of Howe becoming a public man. Aon incident occurred then that determined his fate. His defence of himself against a charge of having libelled in his paper the magistrites of Halifax, made him famous as an orator, and he was called upon to run for the country. For the next 36 years he was our representative Nova Scotian. What such a position meant in the eyes of his countrymen is to be judged on the same principle as that ia which Themistocles declared his son to be the most oowerfal being on earth, and Mr. Samuel Slick, clock maker, argued his own greatness. **I do not propose to go over Howe’s acts and — during those 36 years, but simply to as WHAT WAS THE GREAT WORK THAT HE DID ? He made Nova Scotia free, as far as politic. cal self government means freedom, He _ the province responsible gove: nment. ow far we have traveiled may ba es imated by the fact that this was called by liis opponents “responsible nonsense.” We are now so tamiliar with the gift, it seers so purely a natural right, so like the right t 1at a man has to choose his own wife, his ewn iouse, his own minister, lawye: or doctor, bis own calling, that we forget that Nova Sootia 1s have had it a8 an unquestioned right for les: than half « century, and that it cost Howe a ten year’s conflictland the sacrifice of every shilling he had, as well as his prospect of becoming wealthy, to gain it for us. L. O. O. F. ELECTION OF GRAND LODGE OFFICERS, (Special to Toe Examrner by telephone.) SumMersiph, Aug. 11, At the forenoon session of the Grand Lodge, I. O. O. F., the follc wing officers were elected for the current y«ar :— Grand Master—John H. Sutherland, Halifax. Deputy Grand Master—Benjamin A. Seamers, St. John. Grand Warden—H. Wyckoff Rogers, Amherst. j Grand Secretary-—J. C. T. Frazee, Hali- ax. Grand Treasurer—Henry A. Taylor, Halifax. Grand Representative—James R. Mec- Donald, Sherbrooke. Grand Trustees—Grand Master Suther- land and Deputy and Grand Warden. The installation of officer: took place upon reassembling at 1.30 this afternoon. It is probable that the sessicn will close sine die at 4 o'’c'ock, in ordur to enable visitors for Nova Scotia to return by to- morrow’s steamer. _— — i ee Mr. Baird,of Newfoundland,hes become one of the Men of the Time. Two or three years ago he had no expeciation of figuring in a grave constitutional and international matter. He was more anxious tv make a li:tle money in the industry of lebster canning. The pres liminary arrangement between England and France respecting the French Shore trouble, which agreement is known as the modus vivendi, found Mr. Baird with a new Jobster factory, which, according to the bargain, required to be closed in the i: terest of the French who had another factory : -ithin the de- fined limit. Mr. Baird refused to suspend operations, The French fishermen could do nothing. But Admiral Walker o/ the British fleet, enforced the treaty by seizing the establishment. Mr Baird eng:ged counsel and instituted a suit for damages against the admiral, claiming that the provit ce as a self- governing colony had jurisdiction over his rights, and that the Sritish rgulation was invalid, as it had not been sub nitted to the Newfonndland legislature. Mr Baird got judgment, and on the appeal of Admiral Sir Baldwin Walker has had the satisfaction of finding the decision confirmed »y the privy council. The damages awarded are said to be liberal.

Among the old relics in the Pioneer Hut yesterday, was the small boat used by the venerable Bishop McExchern, which was kindly loaned for the occasion by the ladies of St. Joseph’s Convent where this veuerable relic is carefully preserved. This pioneer boat was used by the owner on his extensive missionary travels. Wheels were put under it for road service, and when reaching a river or bay those whee!s were detached and put in the boat—the faithful horse was uvh«rnessed, and le}, by the bridle swam after the beat, which was paddled across the waters by that great and good missionary. Ia winter runners were placed under this time honored craft by which its occupant traversed the rivers and bays utilizing it as a sled. Appropriate addresses were at the close of the Pioneer Exhibition, delivered by Rev. A. McLean Sinclair, of Belfast, and Rev. Dr. Morrison, Rector of St. Dunstan‘s College, re- lating to the life and times of the early Scottish settlers of this Province. Alexanuer Beaton, Esq., of East Point, aud Samuel McDonald, Esq., of Dundas, and Duncan Munn, Eeq., of Little Sands, were at the gathering yesterday. "eee On Tuesday, 9th inst., the wife of Mr. W .
