Opp. Prowne’s. — Se el ESTEEMED EXCHANGES. _— Toronto Globe: Lord Roberts will probably be strong enough and humane enough to resist the jingoes in London who } are calling for “sterner measures” for the ter mination of the war in South Africa. The Boors’ fight tor independence may. be fooiish and hopeless, but that does not make it criminal. Of course, where there is actual crime it must be punished, but the mere continuance of resistaace would not warrant the desiruction of farm houses and other acts adyocated by th stern gentlemen of the clubs and music halls. Montreal Star: Those of the Libera! party who look with hope and confideace to Quebec to help the Laurier party out of difficulty will find themse!ves sadly mis taken. The party has violate! every pledge that was made before the last election, exploited many of the possibil- ities in the way of corruption, been ex- travagant, wasteful, dishonest, The proud name of Liberal meant 80 mach in days gone by, topeople who believed in Mackenzie and 3lake and Dorion ; a party which had leaders who, whetber their views on political economy were sound or not, had fixed principles and were pre pared to stand or fali by them. Today that old party name is indelibly associat with seandals which bring the blush of shame to every honest Canadian face. Moatrea] Star: The? ability to exs press fluently one’s thoughts isa natural gift that is worthy of cultivation, but let us always remember thata great states~ man need not bea great orator; that the greates trathe are often conveyed in the fewest words; and he who is slow "to pro- mise may be quick to perform. In tke approaching campaign beware of words, ~ words, idle words ;- beware of the men whose records are unsavory, though their speech is full of fragrance; beware of the “silver-tongned orator’ whose aetions belie his talk. The time has come wher the hard-headed, thoughful men of thie country should assert themselves; demand integrity in high places, honesty of ad- ministration, economy in public expendi- ture, diemiseal of those who have wronged the people by false promiees, interfered wito the best interests of the country by foolish waste of great opportunitier, dis« graced the nation by practising or cons doning the most flagrant corruption, It is time for action, not oratery; for put- ting forward sturdy men of sound prin- ciples, not listening toglib actors recite pretty speeches, EARNSCLIFFE NOTES, A good hay crop this vear in Earnecliffe and vicinity. Mr. George Uviwell, of Charlottetown: paid his friends here a pleasaut visit tbi- week, Mr. Malcolm, Nelson, of Stanley Bros. is spending his belidays in China Point. He is accompanied by bis wife, and w.! return to this city on Saturday. One of the busiest and best tralesma: in Lot 49 is an old friend, Mr. J. W. Jud son, the village blackemith at Pownal. Mr. Judeon, Who has been here for many years has, by his scrupulous honesty, ster! ing integrity and never failing courtesy and kindn:es to all, won a reputation that apy One migtt well feel proud of. The increase ia the price of matches is one of the latest instances ot the fact that the necessaries of life are gett ng dearer all the time, sod this underthe regime of a party that obtained power epecifically pledging itself to make the-e things cheap er. Thieis one of the pb os of the “growing time” thatthe e:ectors will re- member when they sre makiog their bal- lots at the next election. The Point Prim light, which can be seen quite plainly from here, was once a grea mystery {to a young maa who,came here, straight from the woods, to live for a year orso. After puzzliog over the matter fer about three mouths he fivally solved the conundrum, and one morniog he remarked to his master. ‘Say, boss, there is a fel- ler over in Point Prim that bra been ‘set= tin, up’ with a girlevery oighttill dey- light for three montne.” ‘*How do you know?” “ObI can see his light.” Since our last letter it has developed that a part of cur grit machine in Eaat Qaeens is opposed to allowing Mr, Alex.

Ee REPORT, — nnual report of the U. 8, Com- Bee of Patents, Hon. Charles H Duell, has been submitted to the Secre- tary of ibe Interior. During the past fecal year there were received 39,815 -. plicatione for mechanical patencs, 2,263 a; plications for desigas, 90 appliestious for reiseue, 1,739 caveats and 127 applica- tions for prints. There were 26,540 pa- ‘ents granted including reisaues and des 1,600 trade marks, 682 labels and 93 prin's were registered. The number + patenta that expired were 19,988. The otal receipts of the office were $1,358,- iy ° M'me 5 298.45, total expenditures were $1,247,- 227 18 and the eurplus of receipts over xpeoditures, being the amount turned othe treasury, was $110,400.77. The exam netion work of ihe office ia io about the same relative condition that it wae at the close of the fiscal year end- d June 30:b,1899. At that time every examiner had his new work within one month from date of filing and his amend- ed work within fifteen days of date. At the cloge of the present fiscal year, thirty out of the thirty-six examiners had their new work within one month from the date of filing. Of the remaining six, three Overran that time but by one day. The amerded work in _ nearly all of the divisions was being acted upon within fifteeen days after filing. The number of applications awaiting action on the part of office on lst Jul , 1900, was between five and six hundred more than on the Ist July, 1899, but the namber of applications for patents, etc., received during the last fiscal year was 5,000 greater than during the preeeding year, and the number of amendments acted upon Was correspondingly greater. This is considered an excellent showing, and reflects eredit upon the examiuing corps, when itis bourne in mind that a greater number of examiners were detailed for classificatiun work than during the preceding fiscal year. —_ ISLANDER'S DEATH. We take the following from the Moun- taineer, of Marysville, Montana, dated Juiv 26th : ** Again death has visited Marysville aod taken ore of her most respeeted and worthy citizens, Robert D. McLean, aged 54 years, who died in Maryay lle, Satur« dav, July 2let, ** Mr. McLean had been a great sufferer during bis recent illness,but all that medi« cal aid and willing hand and loving hearts could do availed as noibing. Be was a man whom every one houvred and respect- ed, avd h's logs will be greatly felt among those who knew him best. He leaves a wife and deugh er, Mrs. §. E, Bowlby, who keeoly feel their loss. “Funeral services wer+ held Tuesday moroing, afer which the remaine were taken to H+lena, accompanied bya large number of ‘ownepeople, including mema bers of the United Moierns, Upon their arrivalia Helena they were met i y friends from that city, East Helena, Butte and San F:ancieco, who proceeded with them to tbe cemetery.” Tbe above Robert D McLean was the second sonof the late Hugh McLean, merchact, of St. Peier’s Bay, a: which lace his mother, brother and two sisters ‘still reside, Mrs. Robert D. McCallum, of Boston, Mass., and Mrs. W. ?. Goff, of D:ayton, N.D., are also sisters of the deceaeed. A Very Human Touch. The epeeches in the British parliamen: upon the occasion of the aseassinetion of King Humbert were nut so felicitously exoreseed as ou like occationsin Glad- stone’s day. 80 noteworthy was thie that the Loadon Daily Mail observes, “The art of such ceremonious speaking as ie re- quired for a funeral orator died with Mr Gladstone.” There was, however, says the Mail, “just ove very human touch in the speech of Lord Salisbury, which added greatly to the impressiveness of the occasion and ‘omrounicated a certain sympathetie thrill to hia audience. He came to speak ot the Queen of Italy—that noble and bereaved figure which has appealed so strongly tothe sympathy ofthe entire werld. Suddenly Lord Salisbury paused, and his voice seemed to choke; and amid the thrilled, painfal and expectant sil- e.ce at this sudden breakdown in one e0 extraordinarily self-composed, people per- ceived that Lord Saliebury, the mas and the widower, was suddenly brought face '0 face with his own great sorrow. It waeone cf those quick aed unusual re- velations ef inner character aad profound feeling which from # proud and reserved re very impressive, and so it was felt.”’ —_—_———— ees The Natural Limit of Pain. (The Brussels Gazette.) A famous Belgina surgeon stated re- cently that he thought suffering could not pass a certain limit, aud that most of us bad reached the limit when having a tooth drawn. “I have been forced to thecon- clusion,” he said, “that afters certain point & sort Of etupefying insensibility to pain is produced in the patient, and be suffera no more; his nerves refuse to transmit any more acute sensations. Therefore, the horrifying stories of agory which have been written are purely efforts of the im» agination.” The Prowse of Association. Match | Is being shot at the Butts to-day.
