Mr. Weldon’s bill to disfranchise for eight years electors who accept bribes is, perhaps, the most interesting measure be- ‘ore Parliament. In moving the second reading, Mr. Weldon made a capital speech After describing the legislation that had formerly been brought in by Mr. Blake in 1876, and which had been included in the Revised Statutes, Mr. Weldon went on to say: ‘The purpose of this bill is entirely differ- ent. It dees not purport to be a bill for pun ishment. The aim of the bill is very;different ‘rom that. 1t proceeds from the principle, which I think is a good British principle, which is, I think, a good Canadian principle, namely, that the right of voting, the right of putting a ballot in the box, ie a great power under our constitution, and one that cannot safely be left in the hands of persons who use that right_unworthily .” He then described the manner in whieh the provisions of the Bill would be brought into operation, and after answering in an able manner the objections ywhich might be brought against the proposed measure, he aaid ; *‘Now, before I sit down, let me say that, in my judgment, the gravest present evil in Vanadian and American politics, and in the colonies of England in other parts of the world, is this evil of bribery.” Dr. Weldon then referred to an address lelivered by Mr. Balfour in the House of Commons of England a little over a year ago, in which that gentleman pointed out why he thought some of the political insti- tutions of his own country were going to smash before very long. ‘‘That gentle- man,” said Mr. Weldon, ‘‘drew a parallel between the history of England for the last fifty or sixty years and the history of Athens before she fell; and in what he said, though his ideas were very gloomy indeed, he appeared to me to describe the condition of affairs existing, not only in his own country, but in our country as well.” He pointed out how, in Athens, where the affairs of the state were in the control of the free citizens of that beautiful city, the demagogues came, with lies in their mouths and masks on their faces, telling the people that they were wiser than _ their rulers, just as many of us are too fond of flattering the people and the press of this country, and too slow to tell the people that we know better than they do how to deal with many technical questions, too slow to tell the press also that we, who have acquired special knowledge on certain sub- jects, know more of these subjects than they do. Mr. Balfour further pointed out thet in Athens,after the re came,the bribers with meansin their bands corrupting the electors, sometimes singly and sometimes in masses, sometimes with full land and some times with full corn, one party outbidding the other in the magnitude of their bribes. And after the Athenian people had been corrupted for fifty or sixty years in this way, we know what happened. The most beautiful and perfect civilization which the world had ever seen, which had budded just before the days of Pericles, was gradually destroyed; its wilted petals were struck from the stem by Philip of Macedon, It was then that the boodlers came and corrupted the wind bag orators of Athens and smote down in her strength that city, which was the pride of her time, in the Bittle ot Chronea, because her people had bien enfeebled by political corruption, Athens, with her art, her beautiful temples and stat- utes, her great books, her beautiful women, her intellectual men,—was cut off and des troyed,” In conclusion, Mr. Weldon said : ‘* We belong toa country whose laws go back for a thousand years. We boast that we have free institutions; we boast that those in- stitutions are the peculiar creation of the En- glish race, But they cost something. The people who worked them out end struggled for them from generation to generation had to pay for the boon. I need not mention the price they paid; 1 need not quote names of men, the mention of which stirs the people two hundred years after these men are dead We have paid for our liberties, and we would be a poor, recreant crew if we should lose through lack of courage in dealing with this colossal evil.” —a The McLean Case. Suetsurne, Feb. 6.—The case of Mr. Mc- Lean, of Horning’s Mills, as publisaed last week is still the talk of the vicinity, and many people have taken the trouble to go to Horn- ing’ Mills to see him. Mr. Belfry, the drag- gist here, who sold Mr. McLean the pills, vouches for the truth ot the statement, as also does Mr. Wm. Jelly, Ex-M. P. P. for Duffer in County. Dodd's Kidney Pills are indeed o wonderful remedy, as they cure the most dead- ly as well as the most prevalent diseases that affect humanity, namely, Bright's disease, as well as all forms of kidney troubles, dropay, diabetes, stone in bladder, and most especially rheumatism. _=- _ The Government of Victoria, Australia, pays an export bounty of two cents per pound on all its butter selling in the Lon- don market between 25c. and 30c, per pound, and three cents pert pound on all selling over 30c. Under this arrangement, butter exports have so increased that there is sume talk of treating cheese in the same way. On the other hand, the fact that one ef the butter companies has declared « dividend of 20 per cent., has given rise to demand that the bounty be repealed alto- gether.

Alcohol is the one evil genius, whether in wine, or ale, or whiskey, and is killing the race of men. Stay the ravages of this one poison, alcohol, that king of poisons, the mightiest weapon cf the devil, and the millenium will soon dawn.—Dr, Willard Parker: Alcohol is specifically snd to all intents and purposes a cerebral poison. It seizes with its disorganiziog energy upon the brain, that mysterious pa:t whose steady and undisturbed action holds man in true and responsible relations with his family, with suciety, and with God ; and it is this fearfui fact that gives to government and society their tremendovs interest in the question.— Youmans on Alcohol. In my thoughts I always liken the Wo- man's Christian Temperance Union to the Joan of Arc whom God raised up for France, and who, in spite of their muscle and their military prowess, beat the Eng lish and crowned her king! But evermore she heard and heeded heavenly voices, and God grant that we may bear and heed them evermore! To the martyrdom of public rebuke and criticism they will surely lead us, a sacrifice not easy for gentle hearts to bear ; doubtless, also, with some of us, to the actual martyrdom by which 4 national history grows sacred snd heroic; but, fol- lowing where they lead, we shall steadily pass onward from the depths of the world’s pain to the heights of eternity's peace ; and, best of all, we shall help to jift humanity, so weak and so bewildered, nearer to the law, the life, the freedom of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.—Frances E. Willard. Y. W. Cc. T. U. Isa Y. W. C. T. U. @ necessity? We answer most emphaticaliy, ‘‘Yes !" We as young people stand to-day between the gen- eration that is passing—our fathers and mothers—and the generation that is coming up around us—the children. There are times when we feel that a heavier burden rests upon this ‘‘standing-in-between” generation than has ever rested, or even may rest, upon any other; for ere we have on great battles will have been tought between the home and the saloon, — aye, the greatest battles that any age has ever known. What the reesult will be de- pends fupon the trained fcrces guarding these homes. T'he children are being taught the principles of this great reform; but will not a large part of this work need to be done again if the children of to-morrow have for parents the indifferent young men and women of to-day ? There is no time in the home life when a girl receives so much thought and care when a mother’s love and a father’s arm are so ready to shield and protect, as when she enters the portals of young womanhood, and stands with al! life centred in the happy present end the ever- changing future. If this young woman is aroused to take some part in temperance work, letting the thought of lifting this great burden from humanity permeate her own life, she will influence the very heart of that quiet home. Thousands of girls who have been total ab- stainers all their lives, but who never have realized what this great evil is that we fight, need to have the thovght brought home to them that through silence, indifference or lack of desire to do anything they are helping the enemy. Then wiil these young women, arous ed from their legarthy, be our strongest allies and helpers; and with one hand placed in the hands of our parents for guidance, with the other wiil grasp the hands of the children and lead them through brighter, broader and pur- er pathways, aud together, the three gener- atiens in one, crush out the great destroyer ot ihe home here and the home eternal.—Select- ed, The Dairy. THE BABCOCK TEST, AND THE PAYMENT FOR MILK ACCORDING TO BUTTER FAT. The Hos. Thos. Ballantyne, of Strat- ford, Oct., spoke recentiy on the above subject, which is one of the utmost im- portance to dairymen. It is poor encourage ment tu a farmer who aims to keep good cows if his neighbor, who keeps poor ones, can get as much pay for milk of inferior quality as he can for milk rich in butter tat. Since the invention of the Babcock testing-machine, this injustice can be easily remedied, The inirinsic value ot every patron's milk can be ascertained, and payment made accordingly. In those factories that use the Babcock test, as many of them now do, there is marked improve- ment in the quality of the milk, an effectual check is put upon watering and skimmung, while the profits of both the patron and the manufacturer are increased Mr Ballantyne strongly urged the adoption of the Babcock test in all factories, and the payment for milk according to the actual showiag of fat that it contained. He said that since the introduction of this test, difficulty about adulterated milk had ceased in connection with the factories that had adopted it. Ex-Governor Hoard wade some telling remarks at the same meeting on this subject. He said :—** The Hoard creameries started in April, 1891, to divide money among their patrons according to the quality of milk as shown by the Babcock test. The result was that in one month there was an increase in the richness of milk and in the subsequent return of pro- fits to patrons. The Babcock test cleans up the moral hazard question in the dairy business, and the factories at once get credit for all the good there is in the muk. There is an important percentage between what you get and what you ought to get. From April to November the increase amounted to one-third of a pound in butter fat in every 100 pounds of milk, and the December milk was 25 per cent. richer than ever it was before. The patrons had be- come more honest to themselves, to the cow, to the factory, and to their neighbors; and everyone is wiiling now to be judged according to the deeds done in the body.
