[HE DAILY EXAMINER. AUGUST 17, 1887. commercial Union. —_>—— statement that Sir Sir John on REFERRING to the John Macdonald at one time gave his as- sent to a scheme of Commercial Union, similar to that a sed by Mr. Wiman nd supported by the Patriot, the St. John ~ Sa) @ ‘We do not know what propositions may have been made with Sir John’s approval, though wearec rtainfthar then as now he was Ww illing to go as far as the interests of Canada permitted. But no proposition was then made, or has been made since the Union, by Sir John Macdonald, which would impose lower duties on American than English goods of the same lass coming into Canada. The next year after the attempt of 1869 failed through the refusal of the United States to negotiate farther, Sir John Macdonald protested strong ly against a proposition which he said * estab lished a union with the United States ayainst our mother country.’ **On the same day, Mr. some remarks which apply still more to the present Commercial Union proposition when, he said: ‘willing as I am that every proper concession should be made to the Unit- ed States, in making a treaty, I should a t times rather do withcut a treaty than change our laws every year as dictated by the Uumted States.’ ‘Neither Sir John Macdonald nor any other Canadian statesman with one excep- tion, ever ventured to support a proposition on a line with the Wiman moment. The ex- eption was Mr. Huntington, and he could not get a member of parliament to second his resolution **Sir John Macdcnald may or may not have proposed to admit certain manufactures free Macke nz ie made forcibly 1ousand but if he did he never dreamed of re- English manufac- oft duty, taining the duties on like tures. Much less would he have thought of increasing the duties on English and foreign goods while making like American articles tree. And most certainly Sir John never pro- pos da pooling of revenue, and the transfer to the United States of the control over Can- adian finances. ** The late George Brown in 1874 made a very generous proposal to the United States. He proposed free trade in natural products and in very many articles of manufacture, in cluding agricultural implements, boots and engines, rail- road cars, mannfacturers of wood of all kinds, rods, in pigs; Snails and spikes, shoes, cotton goods, carriages, iron in bars, | steel, woolen, tweeds and many other articles. But Mr. Brown never thought of giving privileges to the United!States which were lenied to Great Britain In his preliminary note to Mr. Fish Mr. Brown took care to say made free to the United States by Canada must be made free to Eng- land- also, and in |} » , that ali articles 1is famous speech in the nding his propositien ‘It was perfectly understood pening that no rticle could be free from duty in regard to the United States that was not also free with re gard to Great Britain, and nothing else was er contempiated for a moment. ‘It was, however, neither necessary for Mr. (eorge Brown John A. Mac- ‘(lonald to say that they would have no hand i « treaty which would en- m ial hostility to the mother coun- try. Nor was it necessary for either of them or for Mr. Mackenzie to say that they would Canadian senate dete Mr Brown said iations +} n tn or negot nor for Si ihe negotiation or ever have consented to surrender to the United S*aves congress the privilege of making and changing the Canadian tariff. Mr. Wiman,a resident of Staten Island, near New York, a vealthy citizen of the United States, has made that proposition. It went well enough but the suggestion that Sir oun Macdonald could have, at any time since Dis boyho ) l, entertained such an idea is too Losurd even for : picnic. F li @ picnic speech, _~— + Imports of fron and Steel. THE Bull Ste el etin of the American ‘Iron and Association, in commenting on the statement of the imports and exports of the United States for the fiscal year ended June 3U, 1887, says :— ‘** The figures relating to our imports of iron and steel have never been exceeded in magnitude except in 1880. The total imports in 1837 were nearly 100,000 tons greater than in 1885 and 1886 united. In 1887 we import- ed 1,524. 604 gross tons, against 1,445,941 tons in 1885 and 1886. Our imports of iron ore in 1887 were also larger than in both 1885 and 1886, amounting in {1887 to 1,141,774 gross tons, against 1,127,113 tons in 1885 and 1886. The foreign value of the above imports in 1887 amounted to $42,251,585, but to this must be added the cost of freight and insurance, the duties and broker's profits, making a probable addition of 50 per cent., making a total of about $63,000,000 as the actual costs to our people of one year’s imports of iron and steel. it must be noted, too, that the figures we give do not include imports of machinery, firearms and other mauufactures of tron and steel, the value of which, if given, would very consider- ably increase our last year’s contribution «to the iron and steel manufacturers of Great Britain and the Continent.” Mr. Lovitt will, it seems, again be the Liberal candidate in Yarmouth. The Montreal Gazette remarks that after the exposures of the election court it would be thought the Opposition would prefer another candidate ; but they owe much to Mr. Lovitt, and he is unquestionably a strong man. By throwing up the sponge at the close of the first day he avoided all acts of personal corruption brought home to him ; so he stands before the people free legal taint tut it is a little tuo much when his friends plead for sympathy on his behalf because of the ‘ annoyance und expense” he has been put to. The expense for bribe whiskey was no doubt large, and the annoyance at being exposed extreme, but a criminal does not usually ask the jury for mercy because his counsel fees are heavy ; and the methods resorted to on Mr. Lovitt’s behalf the law pronounces criminal. The sympathy dodge had better be left alone, as well as the trom money and boodle and the contents of Spinney’s cellar. —--- Oo = —— Another centennial in 1887. This fall the American people wiil cebrate the 100th ‘niiversary of the adoption of their consti- ution—an event quite as important as the Declaration of Independence in 1776 Irom the Peace in 1783 till 1787, the yourg country was governed by a Com- mittee of States, under so-called Articles of Confederation, but the scheme was found Unsatisfactory, and the present bederat system was devised.

He (uc a sew yours adter his sureigent, in | in nn once A most impressive service was held at St. Peter's Church yesterday evening, com- memorating the centennial of the Colonial Episcopate. The choir, followed by the clergy and the Bishop of Niagara, who was vested in his purple cassock, scarlet convo- cation robes, Doctor of Divinity Hood, white stole and biretta, entered the Church and took their places in the chancel at_ 7. » m. Evensong was sung by Rev. G. /. Mawill, M. A., Rector of Trinity Church, Newport, Rhode Island, the prayers were intoned by Rev. F. G. Murray, M. A., Rector of St. Luke’s Church, Halitax. The first lesson was read by Rev. C. O'Meara, Rector of St. Paul’s, Cha:lottetown, and the second lesson by Rev. C. T. Easton, B. A., Che Bishop was preceeded to the pulpit by cross-bearer in virded alb, Chaplain, Rev. J. Simpson, bearing pastoral stall, and two Bishop's boys in purple cassocks and girded albs. In his sermon, His Lordship referred to the mistakes and shortcomings of the Church in Canada during the last 100 years, particularly in allowing the educa- tion of youth to pass out of her hands and become secular, in closing the churches from Sunday to Sunday, and in conform- ing her worship as near as possible to the sects around her, so that she could hardly be distinguished from them. Now, bowever, things were getting better, the worship of the Lord in the beauty of Holiness was being restored, in many churches the daily services were said and in some the daily sacrifice offered, in a vast majority there was at least a weekly Eucharist.Sisterhoods, hospitals, schools aud colleges were spring- ing up, and God was indeed blessing her, although she had so little deserved it, and in this the commencement of her second century she was beginning to take the position she should take as the Church of God. After the sermon the ‘‘Onward Christian Soldiers” was sung, while the procession went down the south aisle and up the centre in the following order :—- Cross Bearer. Choir Boys. Banner of St. Peter. Choir Men. Clergy wearing Birettas. Banner of Blessed Sacrament. Staff Bearer. Bishop's Boys. The Bishop of Niagara. Returning to the sanctuary solemn Te Deum was sung before the Altar, and the service closed by the Bishop giving Bene- diction. ———_-+_—-_—_—__-- ea > — At the Butts.

A SAD ACCIDENT AT LOWER MONTAGUE, YESTERDAY, about 40’clock in the after- noon, a sad accident took place at Lower Montague, on the premises of Mr. George Aitken. Mr. Samuel Aitken’s son-—-a bright little youth aged 4 years and seven inonths— while playing outside,attempted to climb on a cart-box, which was tipped up against one of the outbuildings, but his weight having over- balanced the box, it fell on top of him, killing him instantly. The only visible bruise found was atthe base of the skull behind the left ear, which probably caused his death. The deceased's little cousin-a son of Mr. Jas. Aitken, of Montague Bridge—who was playing ‘vith him at the time, also sustained injuries which are not, however, considered serious. Much sympathy is felt for the heavily afflicted and much esteemed parents in the loss of their only son, who was an_ in- teresting and intelligent child and a _ general favorite. <> >< Man Found Dead in a Well. Mr. ARCHIBALD GILLIS was found dead yesterday in a well on the premises of Mr. Michael! Lawless, Freetown. The deceased was employed by Mr. Lawless to dig the well. He dug to the depth of about thirty feet, but often came out of it complaining of headache and feeling weak. He was seen by two or three going down into the well, but no notice was taken whether he came out or not, as he used to go up and down of his own accord by means of a rope fastened at the top. On being called, as he did net come to breakfast, Mr. Lawless’ }family contluded that he had gone home. No search was made until about noon, when his body was found at the bottom of the well, Coroner McKay held an inquest yester- day afternoon, and Dr. Wall performed an autopsy. The jury, after hearing the evi- dence, returned a verdict that death was caused by suffocation by impure confined air. ve eisoeriendiaialinlailiilaieas FixaL Notice to Taxpayers.—All persons who have not paid their city tax on real estte, personal property and poll, for. this | year (1887), are requested to pay the same on or before the 3lst August, inst.

Tue new trotting park on the farm of Mr. James McMillan, near Summerville, was formally opened on Monday, the 15th inst., and the several races were witnessed by some 500 or 600 people from the settle- ments in the vicinity. The day wasa beautiful, clear, sunshiny one, neither too jhot nor col’, and the flyers were out in goodly numbers. Mr. Wm, Shaw, from Brudenell, had his young three-year-old stallion, sired by Black Pilot, on the g ounds, and every one pronounced him to be one of the handsomest and most promis- ing colts in the county. The first race ! called was for three-minute horses and the following was the result :—~ Buchanan's mare, Montague Maid....2 1 1 1 Owen Haghes’ horse, Blackfoot. 1222 (} Silliphant’s horse, Discount... ... . .. dis. Angus McIunis’ horse, Mitt. ... $333 Sest time, 2 min, 55 sec. For the four-year-old race, only two horses competed, and the following was the result :— S Stewart's horse, Mount Albion Boy...1 1 1 J McEachern’s horse, Brilliant......... 233 In the race for green horses there were four entries. This race was a good one, as old Sea Gull pressed Mooney’s mare, Polly, very hard and made her put her best foot foremost in order to win. ‘The mare trot- ted squarely, however, and stuck to it, and Sea Gull could not get the inside track. B. Docherty’s Aballah mare came in a poor third each heat, and Silliphant’s horse Discount was nowhere. After the horse races were ended, a run- ning race for men was contested, but Mr. B. Stewart, Brudenell, was too fleet for any of those opposing him. ‘For the three minute race Messrs. Bernard Kearney, Owen Hughes and Wallace Stewart acted as judges, and for the other races Mr. Patrick Brothers took Mr. Hughes’ place. The Secretary, Mr. Wickham, desires to state that he made arrangements with Mr. Ronald Steele and Mr. Dunphy to trot their horses ‘‘ Frank James” and ‘‘ Scott Act,” but at the very last both these per- sons had drawn back and refused to enter. It was evidently a case of one being afraid and the other ‘*dare not.” Too much credit cannot be given the committee who had charge of the Park for the excellent manner in which the whole affair was conducted, and it was most satisfactory to see so large a number enjoying themselve$ without the angry bickering and disputing too often witnessed at horse races. We predict that the Union Park will be well patronized in future. — _—_———_— + - Wilson's Minstrels. . A large and, as it proved, a delightful house witnessed the performance in the Opera House last evening. The minstrels are a merry set of fellows, and kept the audience in the best of humor. Some of the jokes of the end men have seen better days, but others were fresh and the songs very good. Master Alfred—the boy won- der—has certainly a wonderful voice. The contortionist performed feats as difficult as any that have been witnessed on a Moncton stage for years. Falke and Semons, in their original comedy—Mirth - and Melody—brought down the house. _ Billy Bryant in his modest slippers Was truly a host: in himself—or—rather in his slippers. But that which most excited the enthusiasm of the audience was the performance of Prof. Burton’s Dog Circus. The animals displayed an amount of intelligence simply marvellous, and their acts and _ their antics were a perpetual surprise and delight to the onlookers. Only those who have seen these animals pefform can realize ‘the extent of the training they have re- ceived, and the intelligence—almost-reoson —which they display. The closing act of the performance last night-—-the farce Don’t Notice It—was, as the bills stated, a scream- ing afterpiece. The troupe is a good one, and their performance last night was much commended by even those who had gone expecting to be disappointed.—Moncton Times.

Srr,—-In reference to the paragraph which appeared in THE EXAMINER last evening respecting annoyances caused by the Salvation Army to one of our citizens it goes fon to say: ‘* That several of the members of the Army were admonished in the matter, etc.” I spoke to T. Chappelle just after issuing summons against’ Army, and asked him if he had spoken to the officers in reference to the beating of drum and he said, ‘‘No. I did not.” Now, ac- cording to Mr. Chappelle’s own statement to me he said nothing about the upoar and noise previous to issuing summons. And further, we did not pass T. Chappelle’s on Monday evening. Yours, etc., D. Howtetr. An Explanation. Sir,—In reply to several enquiries regard- ing the mode of numbering the streets of the city, I would state, that to each block there are 50 numbers appropriated, that is 25 on each side of the street,the odd numbers on the left and the even on the right,going northward or eastward. Where vacancies occur, the doors are numbered accordingly, so that in the event of new buildings being erected, or changes made in the present structures, a suf- ficient number of figures for all possible alter- ations, will be found within each block, and thereby obviate the necessity of disturbing | the Nos. on either side. The advantage of hav- ing the houses numbered will become apparent where we consider the promptness with which executions will be issued; and all horse and | goods of all kinds can be delivered at the ; homes of customers, and the ease with which | parties can find each other. As no postal de- | livery can be secured until the city is num- i‘ hered, it becomes a necessity to have the wo | completed as soon as possible. Those desir- ious of having Nos. on their doors Will be at- | tended to, by leaving their orders at the ; hardware store of S. W.

I Condition City. of the The Sanitary Srr,—-There exists an absolute necessity of appealing in vo uncertain sound to our Board of Health for immediate action in reference to the sanitary condition of the city, without in any way disparaging the services of the police, acting under the unstructions of the Board in extreme cases. They, as well as the Medi- cal Officer of the Board of Health, may oc- casionally perform good services in connection with the question of cleanliness ia extreme cases. But what is required and should be demanded by all health-loving citizens is the appointment—asin other cities—by the Board ot Health, of a Sanitary Officer, whose special and exclusive daties should be close in- spection of the condition of slaughter houses, pig styes, back yards, etc.,and report month. ly t» the Board of Health. This officer,armed with the necessary authority, would do more in one month to cleanse the city, than with all due deference, can be derformed under the present unsatisfactory management in a whole season, Hoping, Mr. Editor, to direct attention to this matter, I remain, Yours, SANITAS.
