Netes and Comments. _ —A few weeks ago the Opposition papers industriously reported that Hon, Mr. Chapleau was cut in support of Unrestricted Reciprocity | as industrivusly propagating the news that **there are dissensious in the Cabinet,’ the ‘ttwo Sir Johns” struggling to commit the Government to Reciprocity, while Sir Hector and Chapleau are «pposed to a change of policy! Liars need to have good memories, —The Chicago Tribune, October, 1889, referring to Mr. Wiman’s anticipation of his indivect scheme to bring about Annexa- tion, said : ‘* Such is the hopeful outlook asstated by Mr. Wiman. The obstacle {which stands in its way is the Tory Govern- ment of Canada Itmay be relied upon to make a bitter fight against commercial wnion, basing its contest upon the grounds that commercial union will inevitably be followed by political union, in which contention tt is unquestionably correct.” —The Toronto Week thinks the opera- tions of Unrestricted Beciprocity would so ingprove the position of the Canadian peo- ple that they would be easily able to pay the fourteen million direct tax the opera- tion f the policy would necessitate. But, askethe Montreal Gazette. wherein would the improvements consist / It is in the United States and not in Canada we hear of conventions to consider what shall be done with deserted farms. Would not the tendency be to bring the conditions in the two countries to a level? The following from the New York Her- ald of late date is very significant : “If the Canadian Dominion were an inde- pendent Government, as is Mexico, the United States would, long ago have brought Canada to see that her doings must come to an end if she wished to be considered a respectable member of the family of nations, As it is, Canada goes on like a spoiled cub of a school- Now these same papers are | 30, 1891. and most oppressive to those who can least bear the burden. Direct taxaiion is one of the most unpopular features in the wholly objectionable grit policy. None of these attempts at education by the opposition organs can save it frum rejection by the electors. Death of an Islander. [ British-American Citizen, Boston, 24th. ] Denald McKinnon was born in Cha: lotte- town Royalty, Prince Edward [s and, Nov. 3, 1816. He died in Boston Nov. 10, 1899 He received his education at the academy in his native town, »nd during twelve years of his early life he was an instructor of the young. At the age of twenty-eight he married Eliza- beth Jardine, who still survives him. The latter partof his life was devoted t agricul- tural pursuits, which he followed till his re- moval to Boston two years ago. He was a man °f scholarly tas'es, a ready w'iter and a brilliant conversationalist He wrete much for the public prees, mainly upon politics ond social topics. Genial, courteous and unsel- fish, he made maoy warm friends, who found in his sterling honesty and ua flinching moral- ity a constant inspiration to that which is best in manhood He possessed shining ability , Without conceit. Iudeed, his modesty boi der- ‘ed upon self-distrust. He was both strong and gentle,—strong in the :ugged virtues of ; an honest manhood, and yet in the ideal sense} of the word a gentleman; qniet, unobtrusive, yet delicately so'ivitous tor the welfare of others. He was not heard so much as feit. While never demonst ative his thoughtfulness and gentleness descended upon the hearts of his friends as the dew falls upon the grass, refreshing it «and silently beading each leaf with agem. He was a close student of the Rible, and though not a member of any church, he was in purpose and spirit a true fillower of Jesus Christ. He retained his \faculties to the end, and died in hope of a bright future. A wife mourns the ioss of a \devoted husband.

It says: “Senator Howlan and others have been urging a subway, a railway under the Straits at-any rate a subw-y which wi!l be indepen dent of fros*, ice, huriicanes, and ali changes of@the seasons The subway would be of more value to the Dominion than theskip railway — than indeed several enterprises we might name; and we hupe Senator Howlan, and the public men of the Island will continue to press the claims of their people on the Dominion. We are glad to see Princ:pal Grant advocating the subway in a spirited and generous paper ia the Week.” The tunnel project is steadily gaining influential friends. —-The Empire remarks that the surplus of nearly four million dollars in the current finances of Canada for the past year seems still to distress the opposition, which be- lieves in Sir Richard Cartwright and his chronic deficits. The people are asked not to consider it as really a surplus, because, instead of being locked up in a bank, it has been expended un permanent improvements to develop the country. An individual or firm would think a surplus of current: in- come over current expenditure very satis- factory, and no less reason for congratula- tion because finding means for improvement of the property and development of the business. It is preferred by the people of Canada to Sir Richard Cartwright’s plan of cutting off expenditure on public improve- ments, running the country into a deficit in current finances, and then borrowing money in London to meet his ordinary yearly expeuses. —With its customary courtesy and re- gard for the truth, the Globe says that ‘the Empire continues to scream against reci- procity.” The Empire replies : **We can- not continue to scream or write against re- ciprocity, because we have never done either. We have opposed that uncondi- tional surrender of our commercial inde- pendence to the United States, involving au atack upon Canadian industries, hostil- ity to the mother country and the adoption of direct taxation, which the Grits are pleas- ed to call reciprocity. And, among other reasons, we have opposed this scheme adopt- ed from Mr. Wiman because it seemed cal- culated to make the Washington authorities unwilling to consider the reasonable recipro- city offered by owr Conservative administra- tion. However, they seemed to have learn- ed the truth at Washington that the Grits do not speak for Canada, and could not carry out their scheme.” — Though the letter of Mr. Thompson advocating the education of the people of Canada to adupt direct taxation was refused admission to its columns by the Globe, the Grit organ has evidently taken his hint, It is now constantly recurring to the subject In a labored attack upon our present com- mercial policy it utters the lament: ** It so happens, too, that direct taxation has al- ways been a formidable bogey.” If by being a ** bogey” it means that the very idea of direct taxation is cordially detested by the people of Canada, it is undvuubtedly correcé. The people, as the Empire well remarks, will not have it, however sedulously they may be educated, and they will reject the Grit policy of coutinental ‘ree trade, which, among many other evils, invulves this hated direct taxation. In fact, the organ does not seem hopeful, wailing that the people ‘‘cxnnot be made to see” that ‘indirect taxation is by far the money.” It is all in vain to puff direct tax- the point to at its narrowest part—possibly a tunnel, but ' most wasteful way of collecting public ation as excellent in theory.
