their annual convention at Toronto, Sir Wilfrid Laurier took \u2018the opportunity to give his views regarding Asiatic immigretion - Ho stated that at the close of its war with Russia, Japan negotiated a commercial treaty with Canada, which has proved of advantage to both manufacturers and farmers.When the treaty was negotiated Japan restricted emigration from its shores, Under new conditions there has been a recent influx of Japs into British Columbia, which has given rise to a demand to annul the treaty.The premler said\u2014 _ The treaty has been in operation only two years.We are just commencing to reap the benefit, and to denounce it would be simply panic.And for my part I am not disposed, whether in this or to ect in a panic.I want to look about, to inquire, to reflect, before I make up my mind, and it behooves the Canadian government under such circumstances, under the difficulty which has arisen, to contemplate, to inquire, to reflect and to see the best course to follow in the interests of the Canadian people.To at once, without inquiry, denounce the treaty would, in my humble judgment, not be playing the part of re sponsible men.This is sensible.To defy Japan is out of the question.The only feasible means of restricting the influx of Japa is hy friendly negotiation with the government of the Mikado, Sir Wiltrid desires that Canada should bave power to make her own treaties with alien Powers, He said\u2014 Heretofore the diplomatic relations of Canada with other countries had been in the hands of the diplomats of Great Britain, particularly in regard to her Am- \" erican relations, They had not been as success{ul as they ought to have been.They would have been carried out better If they had been in Canadian hands.He had the highest regard for the diplomats of Britain, but feit that in affairs of state as well as pri- _vate affairs, leas able men would do better when the heart was engaged in business where more able men perfunctorily performed their duties, {hie is a senseless demand, un- Jess the premisr really means he is In favor of cutting British con- néction, Supposing Canada had power to make an \u2018independent treaty with Japan, and that Japan did not act up to Îts conditions, How would Canada enforce 1t?: .Mr Weir's visit to Ormetown necessarily provoked & visit from Mr Bourassa.He bad been scored unmercifully and he is not the eort of man who passes attacks in \u2018silence.So he oame before an Ormstown Auctience on the even- .Ingof the 25th and bad & re spectful hearing.The greater part of his long address concern- od himooif\u2014his attiteds during the Boer war, on the Northwest education bill, on provincial poll ties.He quoted a letter of Geo.W, Stephens approving of Me \u201ccourse in regard to disposing of the resources of the proviace.Je : went fully into the purchase of timber-limits by Mr Dupuis and \u201cof Peter Maskeasle (of Hunting: \" dom grist mil.fame) in deasing up these milag leads, In de- soriblag how timbes-limits, water powers, and mining-lands should bo dealt with the speaker had the approval of Ms hearers.Touch- Ing on the transactions between Baroa Lepine and Turgeon, be alleged there had been forgeries of dates to screen the goverameat and claimed that if evidence were secured from Belgium the charges made would be qustained.He declared his intention to continue bis agitation with a view to a change of administration.A vote of \u2018thanks was moved ty William Greig and seconded YWy Archd Muir, jr.Mr Prevost resigned his.portiolic ou Monday, which is a concession to publie opinion.In the dally papers an innocent paragraph appears telling how rheumatism can be cured, by a prescription which is givea with the assurance that anybody can mix it at home.Why anybody should go to the trouble and expense of making this public is a mystery until the prescription 1; considered.In addition to such common drugs as dandelion and sarsaparilla there is kargon, un- knowin to anybody exeept the ingenious firm that fills bottles with it and sells at a big price, and the object of the prescription is to secure its sale, for to make up the compound a bottle of this precious kargon has to be bought.This ingenious method of entrapping the public into buying patent medicines was worked last winter, when a prescription was widely published which included \u201coil of pine,\u201d and there was another that required \u201csalatone,\u201d both being high-priced stuff put on the market by the benevolent gentlemen who professed to give prescriptions that anybody could mix in thelr own homes.Newspapers that lend themselves to deceive thelr readers have something to answer for, The manufacturers of the Dominion met in conveation at Toronto last week, The tone of their proceedings was the one to which we have become accustomed, that they are persons of such exceptional merit and importance that the country should fee) deeply indebted to them and the government do whatever they desire.To hear them the uninformed would think they alone work for the public good and that the prosperity of the Dominion depends upon them.Of course they are dissatisfied with the tariff, what they wish is a tariff that will shut out all competition and leave the customer at their mercy, That poor millionaire, Ed.Gurney, the Toronto stove- man, declared he wanted a tariff se high as Haman's gallows to keep out American manufectur- ors.A committees wai appolated to draft a tariff and to take steps to escure its adoption hy parila ment.It is easier and more profitable for these gemtiomea to meet competition by getting tie law shaped to compel those In want of goods te: buy from them, than to supply these goods at a pries and of à quality equal to a member of he Catholle school board of Montreal, and at its moctiag ou Friday eveniag, he de- claroë 1a\u2019 the ohoci: libraries there was scnrosiy @ book of practical valus to either pupil or teacher, Theit shelves were filled with works of a religious oharacter, such as those of Aquinas, Chrysostom, and Augustine.There was nothing of modern thought and knowledge.Another commissioner deciared that, even with such \u201csafe\u201d books, principals were rather reluctant in lending books to the pupils.When \u2018ever a borrower presented himself, be was generally told to \u201ccome around next day.\u201d Librar- les that do not inform and schools thet do mot teach suit the oon- trolling power, A treaty has been made between Britain and Russia as to their respective spheres in southern central Asia.Its purpose je to secure not only India but countries like Afghanistan and Persia from Russian encroachment.It ls understood to be a treaty of give- and-take, Russia obtaining concessions for renouncing all aime to extend its present boundaries Those who profess to know, declare Britain has no cause to fear for her Asiatic possessions, and she need not depend on the alliance with Japan to counteract her old antagonist, After a summer of clouds and rain Europe has enjoyed an exceptionally warm and dry September.This, however, was foi- lowed last week by unprecedented rains with equinoctial gales of unusual violence.The south of France, Spain and Portugal suffered most, rivers flooding valleys and destroying crops.ORMSTOWN A missionary, George Smith, gave an interesting lecture on South America in MacDougall hall Tuesday evening, Mustra ting same with limelight views, The cement walk ia froat of St.Paul's church is completed, and is a credit to John Derby, who undertook the job at the urgent request of the council.The Bourassa meeting brought out a fairly large crowd, Conservatives doing much im evidence The undercurrent of Bousassa'\u2019s talk, both here and elsewhere, is lot the majority rule In each province.English-speaking citizens of Quebec province might well pause and consider before they lend support to one who advocates such a policy.It » a pity to see those who cry down Laurier on account of his nationality, rallying around Boureses, 60c le being paid for oats at the G.T.R.station this week.Stores are now paying 280 for eggs.Butter retails at 25 to 26c.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 HOWICK - Owing to the wet weather oa Sunday the children day services were nôt hoid in the

some person in Vallsy- fleld called Father Thooret of Bellerive to the telephone.The connection had hardly been established, when a lightning bolt struck the wires in use.Father Theoret received such a severe shock that he was laid umcon- scious on the floor and his clothes and the chain which he wore around bis neck were badly burnt.People should be more thoughtful and not call anyone to the

that their names are placed on the reviesd list.A dramatic and musical concert ls advertised by the Cercle Emard for the purpose of establishing a public library.HEMMINGFORD A gang of workmen from
