NOTES ANDO COMMENTS: ~Hamilton Heraki: It is odd to see free trade journals rejoice over the rise 1D the price of wheat. Why, dearer wheat means dearer bread, and the consumer must pay the shot in the long run. Every consistent free trader should jubilate over cheap wheat sud mourn when the price goes up. ~The appointment of a one-armed par- tisan to be watchman of the Dominion building here is on a par with the recent dismissal of a competent clerk of works over a public building in course of erection appointment in his in Ontario and the : “Business 18 place of a drvgoods clerk. business, you know. __The foreign twaie of Canada for the year ending 30th June last, was the jargest in its history while the interprovin cia! and domerti c trade of the country bas been greatiy increased. So much for the N. P. We are, after the current year, tosee the re-ults of some other policy. What shall they be? _Committees of the Board of Trade waited upon the Minister of Marine at d Fisheries and the Minister of Agriculture this forenoon and submitted statements and arguments with refeaence to the pro- posed bridge across the Hillsboro igh al d direct communication between Cbarlotte- town and Great Britain. The ministers gave an attentive hearing to the commit tees and promised to give their representa ticns consideration. —It is understood that the prepoeal to prosecute Biemarck’s organ, the Ham bur- ger Nachrichten, for publishing state secret bas been abandoned for fear of the harm such a step might cause Germany’- foreign police. It is added, however, that should Bismarck publish the circumstan- ces under which he resigaed his office the goveroment will be forced to uct, and will probably treat Bismarck 4s Bismarck treated Count Von Arnim. —The New York Sun i+ quite “rejoiced over the great mineral wealth of Canada and ennounces that the heritage will be so much the better when the Dominion is acquired by the United States. The St. Jobo Sun remarks thatitis flattering to this country that we are becoming more aod mor? an object of desire to our neigh- bors. They have their faults, those neigh- bors of ours, but they know a good thing when they see it. —For some time past there has been a great agitation for a fast mail service, and it was thought that the steam-hip Canada, which isthe fastest boat that ever steamed the St. Lawrence, would have carried the mails. Itis learned, however, thatthe Government have de- cided not to allow the Canada to carry the mails during the winter months to Halifax. This being the case, the company will probably run the boat to Boston until next season, as the shippers there are anxious to have a boat which has apeed in accord- ance with her carrying power. —Montreal Gazetie: The reported al- liance between Russia and Denmark, if it ever results in action on the lines reported to be laid down, is likely to be a bad thing tor Denmark. Denmark, like Holland ard Belgium, remains independent by suf- ferance. If it should be made evident that its continuance in such a position would really endanger Germany, it is doubtful if Rassia and Frante combined could long keep the Kaiser’s soldiers outsile her bor- ders. The wise course for Europe’s emal! kingdoms is to say little and do lesa that is calculated to draw them into the vor- tex of the big power’s politics. —Sixty four Canadian vessels were en- gaged in the Behriug Sea Seal Fishery of this season. It is calculated that dividing this year’s catch proportiovately among these sixty-four vessels, with their 800 whites and 118 Indian hunters, the skins Obiained will just about meet the cost of the outfitting and wages, leaving noth- ing for the ship owners whe have in- vested their capital in this much harrassed and once profitable Pacific Coa~t industry. The loss of two of the British Columbia schooners and the seizure of three others are auxiliary unpleasant inci- dents of the season now at a clo-e. The Behring Sea catch contradicts the United States +ta'ements that in pelagic sealing recently, four out of five seals killed are females. Of the Bebring Sea caich this year, of 9232 skins, 3334 were pelts of males and 5898 those of females. —In tle Unitel Sates to-day both parties are polling their vutesin the con- fident hope of victory. The spirit in which the campaign is conducted appears in the following extract from the latest bulletin from D-movratic headquarters :—To the voters of the United States : [n the prelim- in a y battle of the people against the plu- torr scy, the people have already won. In spite of an expenditure of money so large thet the civilized world stands appalled at its magnitude tc-day a large m: jority of tle people of the United States are in open re- volt against the mcreiless gold standard and the domination of the country by the syndicated wealth of Europe aod America, interested in securing or preventing leg sla- tion and in controlling the execution of the laws in their interest.” Will the masses give a favorable response to the call of the Democratic jeaders to down the c'asses. If sothere will, ere long, be lively times in the States, —Ten days ago, reports a Winnipeg des- patch, Mr. Tarte visited the Indian Indus- trial School at St. Paul’s H's entertainers notified Rev. J. H. Fairlie, the principal, that two cases of liquor would be sent from the city to be used at the luncheon which was to be given. The rev. principal politely informed them be could not allow liquor to be used on the premises, and as a result the repast was served ina building away from the school. Two hours were spent at the luncheon and ten minutes at the inspection of schools. Next day one of the daily papers criticised severely the con- dition of the school as to cleanliness, etc. This criticism brought forth to-day an open letter from Rev. Syiva A. White, the in- cum bent of the school,in which he bitterly denounces the unfairness of the article in | question, and accuses the writer of it of. being instigated by malice at Rev. Princi- ps! Pairlie’s action, ia not allowing liq: or to be used on the school premises. —The ineane military rivalry between Germany and France is to be kept up, the French Parliament haying just ordered an addition ot 8,000 men tothe army. This | brings ita effective strength up to 550,000 soldiers. Each nation might jast as well | do with 190,000. Their huge standing armies make it necessary for Italy, Russia aod Austria-Aungary to burden them- selves in the same way; though Italy has been reduced tothe verge of bankruptcy by her efforts to fulfil her obligations as a! member of the Dreibund. The mainten- | ance of acostly armed neutrality in Europe | ie the chief cause of the hard times from which the whole civilized world has been suffering during the past few years. The ability of Europeans to purchase the food produvis of America has been enormously impaired by the withdrawal of so many men from the work of production, and by the heavy burden of taxation neceseary to keep so many millions of troops in idle~ nese, to say nothing of the permanently demoralizing effect of military life. So says the Week. AGRICULTURAL MEKTINGS. Minister of Agriculture and Professor Saunders at Kensington and Charlottetown, The Agricultural meeting held at Ken- sington yesterday was very well attended considering the bad state of the roada, Mr. John Anderson occupied the cha'r, Hon. Mr. Fisher was presented by the chairman with an address which coutain- ed about one hundred signatures. The Minister of Agriculture in his ad dress dealt principally with the question of dairy farming and advised his hearers to be particular in a good stock. He strongly urged all to go into co-oporative farming. He gave them particular advice as to the care of cattle stating that they should te kept warm, well housed an! kindly treated, and gave an outline of what would be done to improve the facilities for ship ying farm produce tothe Exg!ish m wrket- He intimated that there would be coll storage inthe near future. After Hon. Mr. Fisher had Prof. Saunders followed with a valuable and particularly interesting address on manures, Speeches were alzo made by Hon D. Laird and Wm. Campelll. M. L.A, finished, The Minister of Agriculture aud Professor Saunders addressed a large body of farmers and others in the Opera House this after- noon. Hon. D. Laird occupied the chair,and there were on the platform Hon. L. Wd. Davies, the Mavor of Charlottetown, Mr. Dawson, Dr. Jenkirs, A. B. Warburton, F. L Haszard and P. Biake, President of the Board of Trade. In the audience we noticed Hon. F. De St. C. Brecken, Fathers McMillan and Burke, Chas. Palmer, Esq, A. McDonald, Esq., Superintendent of the P. E. Island Railway, and inany others. The meeting was addressed first by the Minister of Agriculture and after- wards by Professor Saunders. Look out for the report to-morrow. _ A RE-UNITND PARTY, (Montreal Gazette.) It did not need the proceedings at the gaibering at Toronto on Tuesday to prove that the Conservative Opposition, in Par- liament or out, is at once unived, res lute and hopeful. The events of the last ses- sion showed that, so far as the parliament- tary representatives were concerned, the defeat of the 23rd June had obliterated the differences that during the campaign worked the party much mischief, if they did not actually deteat it. Ontario’s is the -econd provincial gathering of the party's leading men to emphasize the fact by de- claration and action. The gathering at Toronto simply followed the example set by the gathering in New Brunswick. It has been said before that no party ever ac- cepted a defeat so philosophically as the Canadian Conservatives did that of June last. It suffered for a cause that brought honor to it even in overthrown, and when the majority of the people rejected its plan for removing & cause of grievance toa re- ligious and racial minority, they also re- moved the cause that had separated too many of its ordinary edherents from the main body. And oat of the reunion arises hope for the future. If there never was a stronger Opposition party in Canada, there never was a mere divided Government party, or a Government with less capacity to do anything useful. In an existence of three months the Laurier Admivistration has dove nothing but dismiss Conservative officials to make place for its own parti- zane, and break the pledges it made while in opposition. Itis onthe eve, also, of repudiating the most solemn premises made to the majority in this Province in connection with the Manitoba school ques- tion. Mr. Laurier at Quebec, Mr. Geotf- rion at Belwil, and other leaders every- where, declared in the most emphatic way that when they were put in power they would secure separate schools for the Catholics of the Western Province. Mr. Sifton, who is designated as the Minister of the Interior if waiting for an official announcement that no separate schools will be es‘ablished in Manitoba, before he accepts an anti- separate school party’s nomination in Brandon. Whoever in this Province feels any sympathy for the Catholics of the Northwest must have a supreme contempt for the double-faced politicians who be- trayed them. The same wretched sort of failure to remember their promises has attended the new Government in its policy on the finances. The men who complained that the Conservative Ministers were spending too much have laid their plans ww spend more. The men who denounced che appointment of commissivns to study public questions, Cannot even direct the penitentiary service without a commission being appointed to advise them. The men who condemned the taking of money out of the treasury by means of the Governor General’s warrants, have made wholesale and unnecessary ure Of Governor-Generals warrants. The men who jeered at Conservative ministers for conducting a tariff enquiry are themselves conducting a tariff enquiry. The men who howled against corruption have taken aconvicted corruptionist into their inner councils. The men who cried out against mixing Federal and Provincial politics, have made a Dominion Cabinet of proviocial politics, and slighted old and tried parliamentary supporters in forming it. And there is not the slightest prospect that in the future they will do any better than in the past. They got into power by promising all things to all men, and now do not know which set of promises they will fulfil. No opposition could ask to begin its duties under more favorable con- ditions, internally and as regards the men itis eet against, than the Conservatives fiud arrayed on their side to-day.

The schooner Emma J. Gott, at Salem, on Saturday, was completely wrecked by the explosion of 408 cases of dynamite and 150 drums of gasoline. The latter had leaked, and the striking of a match by the cook caused the explosion, OUsly two of five on board were hurt, none seriously.

Five Christain deputy-governors have been appointed in Armenia and it is pro- bable that there will be changes shortly in the composition of the Turkish ministry. These steps are believed tobe in accord- ance with representations, made by M. Nelidoff, the Russian Ambassador, who has recently had several conferences with the Sultan. Ado!phus Drucker, conservative mem- ber of parliament for Northamp‘on, has just returned from a trip to British Coium- bia. Upon being interviewed, he said he thought there was 4 tremendous future for that country, and that it was everywhere going ahead except in Victoria. American capital, he said, had been developing the country, but Englishmen were now spoil- ing it by the ridiculous prices they are asking for every mining claim. Americans were met in the most hospitable manner. Mr. Drucker said be had met with no anti-Eoglish element while travelling in British Columbia. November on the North Atlantic ocean promises to be dangerous for navigation. According to the official forecast for the cur rent month, issued by the naval bydrogra= phic office, Washington, frequent gales will be encountered between the New England coast and British Isles as far south as the 40th parallel. Between latitudes 25 north and 40 north east of long 70 west, there will be occasional gales, some of which may be quite severe. Fog will prevail on the grand banks at intervals only, also east of New England to the 60th meridian. Some icebergs will appear in the vicinity of Belle Isle; probably none south of 50th parallel. These may not be the days of miracles, but we seem to hear from time to time of many miraculous cures, just the same. Central Maine reports tie latest. Miss Jennie Burrell, of Skowhegan, had been in poor health for several veare. Physicians whom she hed coneulted told her she had a tumor, that her only hope for recovery was in @ surgical operation and that even hen there was onlyfove chance in a hun- red for her recovery. Later another tumor was discovered and h’r health continually failed until the last ef September, when it was only with the greatest difficulty that she moved about the house. For years Miss Burrill has been accustomed to seek comfort and guidance in her Bible and in prayer and one night a little over three weeks ago she felt, suddenly, that she was healed of her disease. Since then she has a = entertained no doubts of her complete re- covery and she says she is now well aid whe happy. . A Constantinople despatch reports that since the recent{visit of the Russian Am- bassador, M. de Nelidoff, to the Sultan, and the long important audience which followed, it is noticeable that there has been a change for the better in the ayjtude of Abdu! Hamid and his adviser’ ‘towards the Armenians in particular and the re- form policy in general. It is known that M. de Nelidoff used very plain language in his convereation with the Sultan, and it is equally apparent that the latter was con- vinced that the Russian Ambassador © was in earnest. This, supplemented by grave reports received by the Sultan from the Turkish Hintassies at London and Paris, pointing cut the distrust and irritation cauced by the attitude-of Turkey, bas brought about eager profersions upon the part of the Turkish Government of a de- sire to honestly push the work of retorm. As a commencement, five Christian depaty Governors have been appointed in Armenia and it is probable that there will ‘he changes shortly in the composition of the Turkish Ministry. a Dr. Kayser, the chief director of the colonial policy and schemes of Germany, has found himself constrained to resigh his official position, and in- retiring ‘from it be has given the prilie his opiniohs -as to the wisdom and utility of German colo- nial projects in general, and of those ip Africa in particular. Of-their value to the Empire he is very doubtful, and outside observers will regard this attitude as ex- ceedingly moderate underthe circumstaees. Germany can never become a great cob onizng country becanse. the iIndividaal German does not take k nliyto the task of develop ug a new coartry, and because there is no large area of the world left unappropriated in which to carry on colonization experiments. The’ German ; emigrant prefers the United States, where be can secure the advantages of a highly developed civilization, including atun- dance of cheap lager of excellent quatity, to the German districts in Africa where Le will formany years to come have no neighbors but untutored savages. As the British people, who make excellent colonists are of Teutonic descent, the diff- erevce betveen the British and German temperments in this respect; sgems to be due very largely to the fact that for fifteen centuries the one has been developed in a eea-girt land, while the other has beén developed in the heart of a continent, = ei Eee TERROR IN CONSTANTINOPLE, An Armenian Family Arrived in Mentreal from Constantinople, An Armenian family, comprising father, mother and children, have arrived in Mon- treal direct from Constantinople, and intend making that city their future home. The father, who speaks six Janguages, is most bitter upon the conduct of the Sultan and Turkish Government, ani declares that it is evident that they have undertaken the extermiuution of Armenian Christians, and it is possible tl.ev may succeed unless Europe interferes, Tie Armépians are! looking to England to put-an esd “to the massacres, and to protect the unfortunate people who are forced to leave their coua- try toavoid the most awful treatment. The man said that it was evident tbat Russia was atthe bottom of the whole difficulty, as it was anxious to havd a’pre text toconvert Armenians ‘imto © Russian territory. A state of terror exists in Constantinople and al! through the Turkish Empire. The man who is azxicus that his name be not given because of the misfortune which it might bring upon bis friends at home if it were known that he had denounced the officials, was in the Galata quarter, where the massacres on August 26th last, when the Kurds, under the eyes and practically with the protection of the Turkish police and soldiery, took place. He was in ap office when the Armenians made‘ah attack on the Ottoman Bank for the __purpase-of calling attention to their treatment. They had to hide to avoid massacre, which was’ horrible, the most revolting scenes taking place. The bodies of the dead w ere hurried, away and some thrown into the Bosphor- ous. The Europeans in Constantinople were horror stricken and sought refuge it the Consulates. This man’s family were fortunately in the interior and escap- ed injury. _— GRAIN Artillery x Competition Milliary Sports Vader the Patronage of Lt-Col. Moore, D. 0, 0.

The Trade Bulletin notes that after all the fuss about a wheat famine in India a shipment of wheat was made from there to England last week. Pork advanced 20 to 25c in Chicago on Saturday. Corn and oats showed gains, but wheat was weaker. At Quebec country points No.1 hay is quoted at $9, and No. 2 at $3 for car lots. Cheese is quoted in Montreal at 10} to 103c for Septembers; butter, 184 to 20c for creamery, 164 to 18¢ for best dairy.
