There is, for instance, a manifest injustice to somebody in the conflicting decisions in the recent recounts. . The ruling of the judge in Seikirk, Man., which eounted the ballotswith a cross opposite the constituency for Mr Haslam, Conâ€" servative candidate, because his name came first on the ballot, if followed in North Bruce would have elected Mr Campbell, and in North Lanark, Mr Caldwell, both Liberals. Now, Judge Creassor of Owen Sound has courted these ballots for Mr. Gordon in North Grey, which may have the effect of deâ€" feating Dr Horsey, the Liberal memâ€" ber. It is very singular that only Liberals suffer by these conflicting deâ€" cisions.â€"Stratford Beacon. There is much sound sense in what the Beacon says. The observant perâ€" son cannot fail to have noted the very singular fact that Liberals are the sufâ€" ferers through the divergence in the methods of counting. The recounts which follow every election impress the fact that the perfect ballot has yet to be devised. Simplify it as you will and there are voters who will make their mark on any white patch on the paper except that opposite the names of the candidates. Why could not a ballot bedevised having only the names | of the candidates upon it with a white space adjacent to each in which to place the mark. Have the remainder of the ballott black and have the canâ€" didates names well separated from each other. Then let Parliament enact that ballots on which the voter places his mark outside a certa‘n radius from either candidate‘s space, shall be accounted spoiled ballots. This might result in a greater number of spoiled ballots but after all does the man who has not enough intelligence to mark a ballot correctly, deserve the franchise? Such a plan would obviate the injusâ€" tice which it is very plain somebody is suffering through the conflicting opinâ€" ions of judges. It is a common notion that a repubâ€" | lic must necessarily be a landâ€"of greatâ€" er freedom than a monarchy. Theorâ€" l etically it is, but not always practically. i The freedom of the subject under the limited monarchy of Great Britian, is} quite as real in every respect as that of the American or Frenchman. Great i Britain is by far the greatest force for | freedom in the world toâ€"day. In disâ€"| cussing the empire in its latest developâ€" ment at Massey Hall the other day Prof Clark of Trinity University poinâ€" ted out that liberty was still the guidâ€" ing watchword. _ As in the past in the Napoleomic wars England had stood steadfast for the liberty, not of herself, but of the whole of Europe, so toâ€"day in the Transvaal her figh: had been essentially for freedom, irrespective of race or nationality. He contrasted forcibly the attitude of the French press and the French people toward England in the recent war with the mannéer in which the English people had always given a haven to the Frenchmen driven from their own land. First the Bourbons, then the Bonaâ€" partists then the Republicans, next the Orleanists, once more the Bonapartis‘s â€"they all knew there was a refuge in a land where freedom was sometbing more than a mere shibboleth. In the dark days of 1870 and 1871 English people had helped the refugees and the sufferers in Paris as far as private symâ€" pathy and succor could go, and there was no shout of triumph or derision over French reverses. It had been in\ such acts as these that England had shown the breadth of her. imperial fit . ness to maintain and govern the greatâ€" est empire the world has ever known. Mr. Brierly, managing editor of t.he‘ Montreal Herald, in a lengthy review of the recent campaign, written for the: 8t Thomas Journal, thus sums up the: situation from a Quebec standâ€"point:â€" ""What the peopleof Quebec desire is equal rights and equal responsibilities. Let us, who are of Engish descent, see that they get nothing less. There is too much reason to fear that among a certain section of the Conservative party toâ€"day, there is a destre to eject Lagarier from the Premiership simply because he is of French origin.

At the last meeting of the Presâ€" ton Council a complaint was read from Ballantyne & Co regarding excessive freight rates from Preston to Gailt.

Mercury is self explanâ€" atory and of interest to Canadian fruit growers:â€"â€" * Fair Canadians "That choice Canadian fruits can now be imported into this country in perfect condition has been demonstraâ€" ted conclusively during the past fow days by the arrival of a consignment consisting of 1000 cases of pears, 25 cases of peaches, and 125 cases of desâ€" sert apples. ‘The peaches (grown in ‘the open) and pears were particularly large and rich in flavor, and as even at the present low prices of English fruits they can be placed on the market just as cheaply, there is every likelihood of ;Canadizm varieties becoming very popâ€" ular. The consignment which arrived by the steamer Manchester Commerce was grown and packed at Grimsby, Ontario, conveyed in refrigerator cars, which are provided on both the Grand ‘ Trunk and Canadian Pacific Railways, to Montreal, and there placed in a meâ€" chanical refrigerated chamberon board ‘ ship. It was in 1897 that mechanical refrigeration on steamers running from ‘ !Canada to British ports was inauguraâ€" ted by the Hon Sydney Fisher, M. P., Minister of Agriculture for Canada, from which time many improvements have been made by his direction in the methods for grading and packing the frait and the temperatures at which the different classes of fruits should be carried. â€" A portion of the peaches, pears, and apples recently received are on exbibition at the offices o. Mr J. J. Gilbertom, Liverpool, traffic agent of the Canadian Pacific Kailway, James St., where during the past fow days they have been greatly admired. 1t is understood that other truits are to fo"â€" low from Canada, including 1000 cases of grapes on one shipment.

WILL CLOSE AT9 P. M. SATURâ€" DAYS. A petition has been circulated among the business nien of Dundas by Miss Land and Miss Nelson to ‘have them‘ agtee to the closing of their stores on Saturday night at 9 o‘ctock. It hu‘ been signed by every grocer in town, and will be put into effect this coming Saturday night, so far as grocers are concerned, of which our readers will take due notice. This isa move‘in the right direction and should receive the support of every housckeeper in town. There is no valid reason why all orders for supplies cannot he given early as well as late in the evening and thus shorten up the hours of labor of the clerks and delivery boys. Few people may know that it requires an hour or more for a grocer and his employes to get horses taken care of and the store straightened up after closing, which frequently takes them into the Sabbath morning hours. Dundas Ont. Banner Nov. 1 1900 On Tuesday evening, the fifth aunual meeting of First Church of Christ, Scientists, of this town was held in the new church edifice,corner of Water and Fraucis Ste., Berlin. This Church is inâ€" corporated under the statutes of Onâ€" tario, the purpose of the organization as set forth being toimpart to mankind the spirituai understanding of the Holy Bible as taught in "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker G. Eddy, which enables manâ€" kiud to follow in the footsteps of Jesus the Christ in preaching the Gospel, and healing the sick and the sinful, as did His deciples. _ The reports of thegprogress of the church during the past year were most gratifying to the members. The Christian Science muoyement has gone ateadily on, und now its followers may be found in the five continents of the world. The sale of "Science and Health," thedenominational textâ€"book, has rapidly ijacreased there being now 200,000 copies in cireulation, the number having doubled during the past five years. The®*local branch church has also had a satisfactory growth in meimbership and attendance at services and Sunday School, and the finances are in a flourishing condition, over six thousand dollars baving been +ontributed in cash daring the past year. Th« oost of the new church to date is $9226 and the building proper as it stands has all veen paid for, leayâ€" ing only the cost of the seating, beatâ€" lag and lighting to be met during the coming year, a small sam tno:-rm to the whole.

THE Lists WERE imperfect. |â€" W® Mr. MeCoot Explains the Cause ~of the Postponement. was in Ottawa yesterday, He says: The facts regarding the Nipissing trouble are ev.dently not fairly unâ€" derstood. ‘The election was not postâ€" poned at my desire or the desire of my friends. We were ready on Nov. 7th, and would have much preferred to go on than have a postponement. The position was as follows: The preparation of the voters‘ lists beâ€" longs to the Provincial Government. It happened that the last complete n-.uo-,:lm.;'.:.m. Nipissing was that of 1898. The Doâ€" minion law requires that the voterg‘ lists used shall not be more than a year old, which knocked out the list of 1898. The reason why the 1898 list was the last compicte one made by the Provincial Government was. I suppose, economy. A list for 1899 had been made in what are callâ€" ed the organized districts in Nipissâ€" ing, but in what are known as the unorganized districts â€" which conâ€" tain about 2,000 voters â€" an 1899 list had not been made. When the Dominion general election was . anâ€" nounced for November 7 it was disâ€" covered in Xipissing that mo voters‘ lists was available, except the new one for 1900, which there had not been time to revise by the County Judge as the law requires. The votâ€" ers‘ list of 1498 was too old to be legally used. the use of that of 1899 would disfranchise 2,000 voters; the list of 1900 was not legally ready. Nuch was the state of affairs in which the Government‘s attention was callâ€" ed, continued Mr. McCool, but not with ansy request for a postponeâ€" ment, and as a matter of fact . the Government did not order a postâ€" ponement. What happened was this: The Governtient, on learning of the difficulty, requested Judge Valin to revise the list of 1900. ‘This order was made on October 26, not the day before the nomination. It was made eleven clear days before the election, with the idea that Judge Valin would have legal time to reâ€" vise the lists. "he order allowed ten days‘ notice of revision, and it was. thought Judge Valin could thus do justice to the voters and yet techniâ€" cally comply with the law. But _Judge Valin declined to comply with the Government‘s order. He would not attempt a revision. and I do not _myself see how he could have propâ€" erly done in the time set, but if there is to be any party question _ about it, it is fair to say that Judge Valin, who was a Conservative, need not be suspected of favoring the Libâ€" erals by his refusal. Personally, I knew nothing at the time of the Government‘s course. I did not ask the Government to take any step of any kind. On October 26, when the order to the Judge was made. I was at Canoe Lake, and did not know of what was taking place until two days later. I and my friends were ready to vote on any basis whatâ€" ever, in fact, were anxious for it. We have been disappointed both by the postponement and by the elecâ€" tion by acclamation yesterday. To sum up: (1) The Nipissing | Liberals did not want a postponement; (2) the Government did not order a postponement; (he postponement was due to the County Judge refusing to attempt a difficult, if not impossiâ€" ble, task: (8) after the Judge‘s reâ€" fusai an election could not have been held without either disfranchising 2,000 voters or using an illegal list. As to yesterday‘s election, concluded Mr. McCool, the voters‘ list of 1900 was ready. completcly revised. Judge Valin has been working as hard as any man could to perfect it. He gave the requisite ten days‘ notice of reâ€" vision as soon as the Government orâ€" der _ reached him, then started through the county, and completed the lists a couple of days ago When you remember that Nipissing is sevâ€" erai hundred miles across. and alâ€" most the same distance from north to south, you will understand what Judge Valin‘s task was. revised Provincial voters‘ list for Manila, Nov. 30.â€"The transport Sherman, _ which has arrived here, brings _ news of a terrific typhoon, which swept over the Island of Guam on Nov. 13, demolishing thousands of dwellings, including the headquarâ€" ters _ of Licut.
