{t is pleasing to learn that the efforts of the Board to obtain an abatement of our telegraphic rates and more continuous service hasthe sympathy of influential men in the Maritime Provinces. If this Province were large, populous and wealthy we should, of course, have every facility as to telegrams that is enjoyed by the people of the mainland. But the Tele graph Company say—and we have po doubt say with truth~-that the volume cf our business is so small that they cannot possibly, under preseat conditions, atiord a firet-class service upon the terms en- joyed by oar neighbors, or, indeed, do more for us than they are now doing. Ou-the other band, it may well be urged that the application of special high rates to thie Province and the supply of only a partial service are not in the public inter- est. Under these circumstances it becomes @ question whether the Dominion Govern- ment may aot properly either take over our telegraph lines at a valuation or pay the telegraph company a rufficient addi- tional subsidy to enable it to affurd the services required at rates commensurate with those charged upon the mainland. In Great Britain telegrams ere carried by the Government to every nook and corner The Government of Canada carries letters and papers to the most distant parts of this wide Dominion at the same rates of post- aze and without reference to cost of car- riage. May it not, properly, be held that a Proviace of the Dominion ought not, by reason of its insu'ar position, to be kept at
of the country upon fqual terms.

Our cheese, our fruit, our pork, our egg+, our oysters, asl lobster and other preducts will al! find a stable market ia that great centre of the world’s consumption, if only we take the trouble that is essential to excellence of production and have regular direct steas. To thie end

excellent quality and the second to con- centrate their patronage upoo the Atlantic steamship line that will trade directly
with this Prevince. It was announced
last evening that the manager of the Beaver line, Mr. Campbell, had arraoged with Mr. Haszard to pay a visit to Char- lottetows in the near future, and we hope that ao united effort will be made to in” duce him to make Charlottetown a port of call for at least one of his steamsh ips.
The extension of the railway to the wharves of Charlottetown, quicker des- p3tch of railway freight from Montreal, lower rates of expressage, and a bridge across the Hillsborough are all matters which may well engage the attention of the Charlottetown Board of Trade. But there are two points about which members of the Board need to te warned. First, they should be careful not to take up acd press forward too many improvements at the same time. if only we press steadily and disc.eetly towards that which lies nearesttous. The parab'e of the boy and the jar of nuts will apply ic this connection. Let us be careful lest by grasping at too much at one time, we lose all. The other point is the danger of disunion. United effort upon ove thing is much more likely to be euccessfal than disusited efforts upoo many things. A word, to the wise, is sufficient.

A coep deal of feeling has been excite among the printers of Ontario by the award of the contract to publish the new hymnal of the Presbyterian Church o Canada to a firm in England. The secre- tary of the hymnal committee urges in defence that the tender of the English firm was the lowest. On the other hand it is pointed out that the Presbyterian Church in Canade gets its money in Canada, and the more money and work it keeps in Canada the more the Church is likely to get. It certainly is better for the country to have the dollars circulating at home among our owa workmen and merchants than sent abroad; and the difference ought to be considerable and _ irreconcilable before a contract involving a quarter of 4 million dollars is sent out of the country: and euch other

careful in this
ought to be particularly regard. The Ottawa Journal says :— “The Presbyterian Church in Canada
may reasonably conjecture that the ex- planation why an English firm can do cheaper printing work than a Canadian firm is that the English firm pays lower For work of that kind Canadian firms probably have as complete and as economical machinery. And the Presby- Church in Canada can afford to collectively lose something on a contract if the loss means support of a higher and more Christian standard of wages thau a cheap contract does. If it be denied that merely lower wages account for a lower tender from England—if bigger capital, better machiuery and larger business ac- count for it—should not the Presbyterians of Canada feel that these disadvantages of our own business men are due to Canada’s immaturity? And that this immaturity can be rapidly overcome only by the peo- ple of the country striving all they can to help each other forward, and that the Presbyterian Church, rather than aim to save a few thousand dollars in selfish economy ia the mere present, should look forward to a richer national future, and do its best to help that future to come more quickly? To help on the time when Canadians will not need favor in competi- tion with other people anywhere, and when in consequence the Pre=byterian Church in Canadas and every other interest in Canada will be much better off?”
These considerations ought to influence all Canadians to encourage home industry. = —@

a + mepeeme— -- - DEATH OF W. H,. LOCHHEAD,
Mr. Lochhead, whose death was recent! y announced by Tue Exam.Nes, was tue son of the Rev. Andrew Lochhead, a native of Paisley, Scotiand, for many years minister of St. David’s church, Georgetown, in this Island, woo married Miss Ano F. Haszard, now Mrs. Frame, of this city. Mr. Loch- head was born at Charlutietown, May 10th, 1853, and died at The Dalles Oct. Lst.,inst. The following reference to Mr. Loch- head’s death is from The Dalles Daily Chronicle of Oct. 2nd :
“William Henry Lochhead died at 11.45 last evening af.er an illness of eight days with typhoid fever.
“Though Mr. Lochhead’s death seemed to be almost certain forthe two days previous, a valiaut fight bas beea made hy the nurse and doctors in attendance at hia bedside. . The contest with death has been fonght ineh by inch, aided by the powerful constitution of the patient, but the struggle was unavailing. He may have realized his approschiag end from the last remark he made te those watching at his bedside a short time before breathing his last, when he said he felt hia strength failing. There were present besides Mra. Jounson, the nurre, Messra Ralph Gibbons, Fravk Abernethy and M. McInnis.
“By his death, The Dalles loses a citizen known for bis wide and ostentatious chari- tes, his sympathies at all times with the listressed, and his tireless activity in at- tending the sick.. William Henry Loch- heal possessed a heart that beat for suffer- iog humanity. The world has toofew of such men, aod his joss wi:l be keenly felt in macy homes which have in the past been lighted by his genial presence and generous impulses.”
GREAT FLOODS IN SIBERIA, Tacoma, Wn, October 13.—Late Siberian papers report great floods in Si- veria, by which thousands have been ren- dered homeless and destitute. The Sip hoon, Moor, Santa Chasa and Ininan rivers are all out of their banks and the plains for hundreds of miles are covered by « great Jake, the water in some cases being 26 feet deep. The Siberian railway has been flooded for # distance of 120 versts from Inman, the terminus of the road, and many large washouts are report- ed elsewhere. Telegraphic communication with Vladivostok was interrupted for several days. Grain crops which are being harvested, are all destroyed, together with farm buildings. Thousands of cattle were drowned. Meagre reports contain infor- mation of a heavy loss of life, but owing to interrupted communication details are not yet at hand. The Governor of Vladi- vostock has despatched several companies of soldiers with steam launches and life boats to the scene of the disaster to assist in rescue work. Great distress and famine will undoubtedly be caused in the agricul- tural districts. The government is doing all in its power to assist the sufferers,

TRADE.
Important Discussed,
Several Matters
‘Thanks of the Board Voted to Mr.
Horace Haszard and Hon. Kr. Davigs.
The general quarterly meeting of the Charlottetown Board of Trade was held in tho Masonic Temple last evening. There were present: Mr. W. H. Aitken, Vice President, in the chair; Messrs. T. Handrahar, D. Farquiarson, W.W. Beer, John Newson, S. W. Crabbe, T. J. Harris, F. H. Beer, George E. Hughee, H. Has- zard, James Paton, George kK. Auld, T. A. McLean, W. W. Clarke, N. Rattenbury, George Stanley, J. Pitblado acd W. L. Cotton.
The acting Secretary, Mr. E. read the minutes of last meeting, were confirmed.
Mr. Horace Haezard, delegate to the Maritime Board of Trade, having been called upon, made a verla! report concern ing the recent meeting of that Board an i the matters immediately affecting Prince Edward Island that were dealt with there. These were excessive freight rates to points in Nova Scotia and New Brunswick, tele- graphic communication, aud cold storage. In respect tothe first of these, it was gratifying to know that as a result of the op nious expressed by the Maritime Board, added tothe exertions of our energetic representative in the Cabinet, a reduction amounting, upon the average, to 50 per cent. had already been made in the rail- way rates, and he hoped that a memorial which would be endorsed by the Presideat of the Maritime Board of Trade would ere long bring about a further reduction. As to telegraphic communication, surprise was expressed by the members of the Maritime Board at the high rates charged aod the meagre accommodation afforded. The resolution which has been published was passed upon his motion, and a desire was shown to use the influence of the Mari- time Board for the purpose of inducing the Dommion Goverrment to purchase the line or so increase the subsidy that our position would be materially improved in this regard. The cold storage question had been discussed pro and con, and @ resolution passed urging the Provincial Governments to keep the matter before the public. Mr. Haszard also reported that he bad nad an interview with Mr. Camp- bell, manager of the Beaver line of steam- ships, in which that gentleman had said that one of their ocean steamers would call at Charlottetown from time to time if tuflicient inducements were offered. To this end Mr. Campbell had consented to visit Cbarlottetown and conter with the Board of Trade and gentlemen engaged in importing goods and exporting produce.
Hon. Mr. Farquharson, Mr. Newson, Mr. N. Rattenbury and Mr. W. W. Beer and others followed, complimenting Mr. Haszard upon the energy and prudence he bad exhibited in his conduct as a delega‘e of tue Board, and commenting upon the great importance to this Proviace of the matters referred to by him.
Upon motion of Hon. D. Farquharson, seconded by Mr. W. W. Clarke, the thanks of the Board were tendered and conveyed to Mr. Haszard for the able manoer in which he represented the Charlottetown Board of Trade at the Maritime Conven- tion.
After some further discussion it was moved by Mr. W. L. Cottou, seconded by Mr. Clarke, that a committee be appoiuted to draw up @ memorial for endorsation by tte President of the Maritime Board, in respect to the excessive rates of freight to and from points on the Lotereolonial Rail- way.
Mr. N. Rattenbury, having in the course of the previous discussion suggested that the P. E. Island Railway might be ex- tended along Water Street, as in the case of Atlantic Avenue, Boston, and thence to the wharves of the city, a general discus- sion took place in respect to that matter, aud also concerning delays of freight between Montreal and Charlottetown, and the excessive charges of the Express Company.
Upos motion of Hon, Mr, Farquharson, seconded by Mr. F. H. Beer, it was re- solved that a@ committee of five be ap- pointed to interview the Minister of Rail- ways respecting these matters upon the eceasion of his vieit to Charlottetown. The committee named consists of Hon. Mr. Farquhar-on, Mr. Handrahan, Mr. W. W. Beer, Mr. Aitken and Mr. F. H. Beer.
It was then moved by Mr. T. Handra- han, and seconded by Mr. Mewson, that the thanks of the Board be- telegraphed to Hon. Mr. Davies for his prompt action in the purchase of asteamer to carry mails and passengers by the Capes route.
Mr. Paton pointed out that the greatest help that conld come to this city would be obtained by means of a bridge across the Hillsborough, the interest on the cost of which, he said, would not be much if any more than the fares paid and loss incurred upon the ferry now amount to. After some discussion it was, upon Mr. Paton’s motion, resolved that an adjourned meeting of the Board be held on the even- ing of Wednesday fortnight for the special purpose of discussing that matter, and that a committee of three be appointed to gather all the information available in respect to it. The committee appointed consists of Messrs. Paton, Farquharson and T. A. McLean.
Mr. W. W. Clarke gave notice that he would, at the next meeting of the Board, propose for membership Mr. F. B. McRae, of the firm of Jones & McRae.
The Board adjourned to meet on the evening of Wednesday, October 28.
ES A 9 ———
Hugh Jobn Macdonald, in an interview on his return to Winnipeg, predicted that soon the warring factions of the Couserva- tive party would be eolidly united under Sir Charles Tupper. He considers Sir Charles Tupper isthe only man to lead the party. Discussing the vacant Interior portfolio, Mr. Macdonald said - “ My idea of it is that Joseph Martin has been most unfairly treated. I said so in the House, and have no hesitation in repeating it. Mr. Martin fought the battles of the party here, was very largely instrumental in bringing the Liberals into power, and was certainly entitled to the Interior portfolio. When the Liberals came into power it never occurred to me that any other man would be given the porifolio, at least not unti! after Mr. Martin had been given the refusal of it.”

The director of the Dominion Exper- mental Farms, Dr. William Saunders, who bas been absent foremore than six weeks inspeating the western ¢xperimenta! farms and inquiring into the condition of egri- culture in the west has returned ‘o Ottawa. He reports the grain crops in British Columbia as rather below the average, and the fruit crop also lighter than usual. Both grain and fruit were injured by 4 long period of cold, wet weather which be- gan about the middle of May and con- tinued for about a month. Under these circumstances the fruit-trees, which were full of blossom, set their frnit sparingly, and the geowth of grain was retarded. Following this the weather became un- usually hot and dry, and the drocth, which continued almost without a break until the midd'e of September, ripeaed the grain prematurely and prevented the fruit from attaining its usual size and quality. Notwithstanding these disadventazes, ® large quantity of fruit has been produced in British Columbia, and the shipments to Manitoba and the Northweét Territories have been large. Tue area ander orchard has been meuh increased during the past few years, and the fruit crop is becoming increasingly important every year. The charges for carriage in car load lots te the east have been much reduced, and methods of pecking bave Leen improved, so that fthe fruit has reached its destine- tion in good condition, and the returns re- ceived by the growers are said to have been catisfactory.
EXPERIMENTS AT AGASSIZ.
The resulte of extensive +fruit. experi- ments at Agassiz are provipg valuable to the farmers and fruit groweérs of that Pro vince. Until recently (the planting of fruit trees in British Columbia was confined to the valley Jands, but fromthe experiments conducted at Agassiz it bas been shown that the higher bench lauds and the smal- ler areas of arable land on the sides of the mountains are more valuable for this pur- pose. Four orchards, including in all about 900 trees of many varietier, have been planted at different heights, ranging from 150 to 1,100 feet. The trees at the different elevations are a!l doing well, and are making a strong and healthy growth. Many of them have fruited during the past season, aod the fruit hae ripened earlier than the came varieties in orchards in the valley, and both foliage and fruit have been freer from insect and fungoid at- tacks.

EDMONTON DISTRICT.
The Edmonton district was visited and several days spent in inquiring ino the progress of agriculture there. The director noticed great improvement in many local- ities since his iast visitthree years agy. Several new towns have’ been bu.lt aad many homes of settlers with cultivated fields were seen dotting the landscape where formerly the coustry was unbroken. Tie few crops in this district which have yet been treshed haveturwed out very well, and it is believed that the yield on the whole will be considerably above the ave- rage. Increased attention is being given to the rising of cattle, horses and swine, for all of which there is a great abundance of food and a ready sale. Many men are at work along the Saskatchewan River washing the sands snd gravel in the river bed tor gold. ‘Lhey all appeared to be doing weil and were said to be earning good wages. Considerable quantities of this gold were seen at the stores where the miners get their supplies and where it is taken in exchange for goods, These washing? can only be continued profitably while the river is low, but the expected output this year is variously estimated at from $50,000 to $100,000.
AT INDIAN HiAD,
The crops in the Indian Head district are remarkably good this year, and it is believed that the wheat on summer fallow in that neighborhood will average 40 bush- els per acre, and that on spring ploughing from 20 to 25 bushels. A large proportioa of the wheat produced here will grade No. l hard. The farmers are greatly picased with the results ofthe year’s work, and with the higher prices obtainable for grain maay of them will realize largesums. The crops at the Experimental Farm at Indian Head are excellent. The awnless brome grass (bromusinerimis) has given a fine crop of hay, averaging about two aud a half tons per acre, and about 3,000 pounds of the seed of this promising grass has been saved fur distribution. More than 40 acres are now under this. grass at the Indian Head Farm. Small fruits have givena heavy crop. The forest trees which have been planted here, of which there are now more than 120,090 in shelter belts, blocks, hedges and avenues, are all doing well, and their growth has entirely changed the aspect of tiie farm, which was so recently a bare prairie section, and in the shelter they afiord “orlitr trees grow well and some crops also can Le grown to much greater advantage thau on the open prairie, thus demonstrating the great use- fulness of tree-planting Gn the plains,
BRANDON DIST RIM.
At the Experimental Farm at Brandon the crops are net so heavy and some varieties have suffered from rust. Never- theless, some of the returus.are good, Red Fife wheat las given 28 budbels per acre. Canadiasw Lhorpe bariey..52 bushels. Odessa barley 60 bushels, banner oats 86 bushels. Indiao corn Las given a heavy crop, 80 also have potatoes, turnips, man- gels and carrots. The awnless brome grass has given an excellent yield of hay, and about 1,600 pounds of seed of this grasa will be avilable here tor distribution. In the Brandon district and the western part of Manitoba the crops promise, but those in the eastern sections of the province are much lighter and will probably bring down the averaze sixteen bushels. The very wet weatherin spring was most un- favorable for sowing, especially in the Red River valley, and in some districts rust has lessened the yield, while in the northern districts some of the late-sown wheat is frosted.

Du Maurier’s body was cremated. It is becoming quite common for celebrities to ordain such a proposal of their earthly tabernacles. The masses are, however, slow to accept such a plan of - hastening the process of restoring ashes to asiies, dust todust. The horror that the idea first evoked among the populace is, though, passing away. It is becoming known that cremation but does in an hour what the process of nature takee years to accom- plish, and when the state of some of our closed up graveyards is remembered it is not unnatural that many should come to think the quick process is the best.
