[" 5 - Canadian Gleaner RHUNTINGDON, Q., AUGUST 1, 1901 NOTES OF THE WELE \u2014 Ottawa continues deserted by min- jaters, a number of whom ure still in England.The premier has gone on a trip down the gulf, to see for bim- sdf what ls needed to postées Cho £ 4d aame of the Bs Lawrence route.1ts special danger being fog, unless the Marconi system of telegraphing can be so operated that each light- station will be able to send warning when the grey blanket falls upon the waters, it is not easy to see how the drawback of our national route can be overcome.British Colombia passed a law dis- eriminating against the landing of Japanese on its shores.The Imperial government has notified Ottawa to disallow the act, as it conflicts with its treaty with Japan.The British Columbia Jingoes are realizing the Imperial boud has its drawbacks.The influx of Japanese has been eud- den and large, and experience has shown they lack the solidity of character and peaceable disposition of the Chinese.The city papers continue to give the names of aspirantsfor the vacant senatorship of this district, and ali of them having no claim to represent it.We understand no nomination will be made by the government until after the Duke of Cornwall's visit.It is not right that theelectors of the district should fail to express their siews as to the appointment.As there are several gentlemen in the district who think they should get tbe honor, it would not do to call a convention to select a name for submission to the government, for that would lead to bootless strife, the friends of each candidate packing the convention, While such a meeting is not to be thought of, we do not see why it would not be proper to call a convention to give expression to the general sentiment, that whoever the government may choose as senator, he must be a resident of the district of de Balaberry.À strong and united declaration on that point it seems to us would be timely and is called for bg the_ciroomstances of the case, Agi}, sigped by the three fsderal mambers, for suk a convention would be responded to.\u2018The rain that set in Saturday night was general over all the continent east of tbe Rockles.Theending of the drouth that had prevailed along the Mississippi for 6 weeks has given new heart to the farmers, and lowered quotations for wheat and corn.Farmers in this province had no gause to complain of the long spell of dry weather, for without it they sould not possibly have secured the hay orop, which is the heaviest for years, The price of choose is weli malataio- e4 apd shipments are large.At Montreal on Monday the cheese landed from the market boats fetched from 9% to 0Xc.Townships are held a shade higher.Butter is steady at former quotations.The appearance .o! new crop bay bas not affected so far the price of old, which is preferred by shippers.The advance in oats has been maintained.> Tbe striking mania bas developed such peculisrition os boller-makers quitting work beoanse the plates furnished wore rolled by non-union labor and masons throwing down their growsls because the stone furnished was from non-union quarries.Trade is being greatly injored by the strikes, both by the loss of wages and stoppage of work from lack of material.Altho little is being said aboutit, the establishing of free trade between Porto Rico and the United States is going ta have a serious efluot upon the British West Indian islands.The States is their natural market, god on what they send there they pay à heavy duty.It will be impossible for them to compete with the products of Porto Rico duty fres, and their present condition, bad es it is, will become worse.Jamaica le moving for a trade treaty with the States, which it is not easy to get, as the Awerionsl

proportion to the work he did.Hud be conquered the foe aud restored peace such a present would not bave been grudged, but when be left the field,as the result has shown, the enemy was not hall beaten.Rumors are persistent that Kitchener is about to be transferred to India, where the alarmists declare Russia is showing her hand in stirring up the Ameer of Alghanistan to revolt.- In the houseoflordstheother night Lord Salisbury made one of those unlooked lor speeches for which he is remarkable.The supply bill was before the house, and after deploring the large expenditure it provided for, he remarked\u2014 The tendency to extravagance is increasing.For years public opinion was in favor of a pacific policy: but now that state of opinion has passed awnv.The tide has turned, and who am I.ard who are we, that we should attempt to stem that tide?Ifthe tide has turned, we shall have to go with it.We are in the presence of forces far larger than we can wield.The plain meaning of this is, that England\u2019s premier deploresthe Jingo epieit but is unable to resist it.He gees the consequences to which it je leading the empire, but cannot stay it.* This is a striking admission from the statesman whom the Imperialists glory in.He cannot conceal from himeelf the unwelcome truth that the enormous expenditure entailed by the Boer war and by placing the army and navy in a position to meet a continental foeis impoveriehing the people and making British manufac: turers less able to compete in the markets of tbe world.A few weeks ago there were several gigantic failures in Germany, reveal ing an amount of dishonesty that was unsuspected.Now comes a atate- ment that the bank of Jtaly is in an unsound state and that its hoard ol directors have for years been declaring a dividend that was pald out of the bank's capital.The struggle in Fouth Africa bas degenerated to a stage that is paln- ful to contemplate.Ragged and lacking supplies the Boors keep up a semblance of war that is little better tban brigandage, while In Cape Colony several who proved false to their oath of allsgiance to the King have been hanged, while many more are ln prison fop the same olunce, There are

&c.Prof.Koch\u2019s view did mot meet the assent of the general body of scientific men, and itcertaioly is the fact that high English medical authorities have since adduced many cases which work against Prof.Koeh's contentions, such as the accidental inoculation among dairymen working with an open sore or out among diseased cows, while there is the evidence of Dr Ravenol, of Pennsylvaaia, regarding 8 cases within bis knowledge of accidental inoculation from animale, 2 of the victime being veterinary sor- geens, and the third his own veterinary assistant.Indeed, the congress generally concurred in Dr Ravenol's conclusion that the tubercle bacilles transmitted from\u2019 cows bas great power over human beings, especially in the early years of life.With the view of testing Prof.Koch\u2019s theory, Harold Swithinbach proposes to undertake an extensive series of experiments on his own farm at Denham, and many otber private investigations are now certain to be made.MESMERISM.Montreal Witness: There are continually going through our country strolling mesmerists, men who give bypnotic entertainments.Beware of these men.1t is certainly wrong to give the contro! of one\u2019s mind to such a man.Hypootism is not a gift nor does it requireeven special intelligence to practice, But it is a power purely mischievous when acquired exoept in the hands of a nerve special ist.It is a wonderful power from which we are wonderfully protected for no man can mesmerize one who does not wish to be mesmerized.The fact is that the subject bas to do fully half the work, It is difficolt and sometimes impossible to mesmerise a person of little intelligence, while an educated person bas the power of subjecting himself very quickly.The mesmerist in doing his work first teils the subject to relax all bis muscles, then he tells him to try to do whatever ho tells him to do.Then he gets him to do some small thing, while the man, in a dilemma as to whether be means that he has to do it or whether he ie asking him to do it, does it, and then wonders whether he did it wiltully or whether he is not under an influence stronger than himself.Once this state of doubt is veached be has fallen.The mesmerist repeats this same deceptive trick sgain, and the man becomes more confirmed in his doubt of himself, Then the mesmerist becomes lesa equivocal and the man is his subject, and ean be made to do almost anys thing.He may be told that be cane nossitis.Given\u2019 pry becomes ime ven a of bread aad told it ie candy, bi suok it, Told 10 cannot remember bis name and (à forgotten.From all thle, the mup takes no physical Injory; but here le the migchief: after the mesmeriat has frepd the subject, and bo has besn bia own man for halt an houror an bogr, the mesmerist can at a glance have him under power again if he bea good subject.The man who hans once given himself over to a mesmer- ist is never again strong to resist.He has lost confidence in bis ability to resist.We allhave this God-given ability at fret.In giving it away we pt no good, and we do not kpow aw much possible evil.Ja the hande of a great dostor this power has been used with wonderful benefit.A sailor coming up to Montreal from Buenos Ayves was paralysed io one arm, and for over a month lost completely the use of that limb.Taken to hospital, be was hypnotised and given back

of some whlekoy which he himeelf, on several occasions, declared was procured and used in his own Interests, and some other trifling irregularities in the vicinity of Mariapolis.Aud because of this

loyalism in that colony at tbe outbreak the treatment the loyalists received from the patriots, both in their or- capacity.that the revolutionary government of New York was accounted among other colonies to be notoriously ists \u2014 presumably because of their greater relative numbers in that colony.Nevertheless it appears that under the urging of Gen.Washington and other insurgents a fair degree of severity was finally attained toward even in New York.speedily took matters into its own hands, and there followed in 1776 a general raid upon the persons and property of loyalists, Their printing presses wore broken up, their houses broken into and the tarring and feathering of loyalists and riding them on a rail through the publie atreets became a great popular pes- time.New York went so far as to order the committee of public safety to secure all the pitch and tar \u201cnecessary for the public use and public safety.\u201d The action of one particular \u201crepublican mod\" in New York olty in 1774 is thus described by the bistorian, who quotes from contemporary records; tories.and several were draggad from thelr lurking holes.These nhappy victims wore put upon

manufacturing towns of Massachusetts for such legislation as will facilitate the exchange of commodities with the Do- wioion of Caneds.HOW THE LOYALISTS WERE TREATED.The Springfield Republican tells

ode of suffering, indignities, rafl- riding, imprisonment, branding, loss of property, exile, and often death, and death pot always inflicted under the forms of law or order.THE COUNTRY FAIR.There was a time when the country their fair was an agricultural show, pure and simple.Once a year the farmers gathered, each bringing his best stock, and his best produce.The farmers\u2019 wives and the larmers\u2019 daughters were there too with exhibits of their handiwork, It wasa {farmer's show and any educational influence it had was directed solely to the farmer, But things are different nowadays.The country fair hag degenerated into a hores-trot and ool- lection of shows of anything but an agricultural nature.The cause of the change is of course to be found in the desire of the management to increase the attendance.A larger attendance meant Increased receipts, increased receipts better premiums, better pre- mioms a larger and better lot of ex- bibits, and, consequently a better show.It looked very simple and proved quite as simple as it looked.Outside attractions did create a larger attendance, and the premiums the management was able to offer did attract an increased entry list.But the price paid was a lossof inter- ost in the exhibits themeelves, and those in charge are now beginning to wonder whether the old plan was not the best.For agricultural exhibit ions are not conducted forthe money to be made from them, but for their educational value, and there is mighty little of any value to be learned from the contemplation of the outside attractions provided at any of the fairs.A symposium on the qosstion recently resulted in the expression of an almost general opinion that the \u201cpurely agrienityral fair paid queh better thas) the \u2018wide open
