Gur Driving Park.

Tue Driving Park is now finished, and in the opinion of those qualified to judge, it is the best trotting track in the Domin- ion. It has two long aud easy stretches. Che turns are not too sharp,and are graded so as to completely destroy the centri- fugal force of a horse rounding them at full speed. A horse at full speed can round the turns as easily as when travelling ina straight line Che directors deserve credit for the design selected for this course, and the good workmanship in which it has been executed. This track has not been con- structed without a large outlay of money. will more than

We draw attention to this in order to en- courage our farmers to avail themselves of the natural facilities within their reach in the horse-breeding industry.

On our late visit to the Association grounds, we noticed the ingenious plan by which the directors have succeeded in re- claiming about fourteen acres of marsh land. This area, formerly eovered by the tide at high water, is now reclaimed and is very fertile, and will Its proximity

There are in this province many marshes which might be reclairaed and made valuable in a simi- lar manner. The extensive marsh above Mount Stewart Bridge, consisting of hun- dreds of neres, could easily be reclaimed from the sea. Lf only the farmers owning it would each make a small contribution,

the necessary work could be done. -—— #2 @ee—

Points in Imperial Federation.

Me. Percy R. Perxrns is ‘‘working up” Imperial Federation at the antipodes. He sp»ke with effect at a meeting recently held in Auckland.

Referring to the expense of Federation, he said the colonies could not be great with- vut bearing the responsibility and expense.

Britain had £800,000,000 afloat and had «a great navy to protect it. The Colonies had £400,000,000 afloat every year, and yet England had not asked a The Colonies had practically nothing to pay to defend their trade. This was not fair to Britain, and could not last. [t was their duty to defend

The Anglo-Saxons are, he said, an in- teusely free people, but in Imperial Feder- ation there is a suspicion of Downing Street domination. Now, EnglandShas managed the Colonies for a number of years, but would she not do better if the Colonies helped her /

The Federationists believe every Colony should have a clear and acknowledged voice inthe government of the empire. They have no scheme for doing so ; but believe that if the principle were instilled into the Anglo-Saxon mind all ever the world, it

would find adequate expression, Their theory is perfect—an absolute freedom of local self-government, and common gov- ernment in matters of common interest. As for the form of the common government, that could be arranged by the representa- tives of the various countries.

Coming to the question of Fair and Free Trade, he said that England was nearer to Fair Trade than was generally supposed. In the Nineteenth Century Sir Lyon Play- fair said that he was told by all the metro- politan members of Parliament that the doctrines of Fair Trade had taken deep root in constituencies. Again, out of 1,000 Conservative delegates only 12 had voted against a resolution which, if it meant any- thing, meant the imposition of protective duties. It was, therefore, fair to argue that they were within measurable distance This would come first as the Colonies.

of Fair Trade. discrimination in favor of Ten years hence, if America should strike for Free Trade in the markets of the world, she would squeeze the big manufacturlng cities of England like a wet sponge, before they knew what they were about. Before that day came, however, Britain would say: ‘We have 400 millions of people in our own Empire, and all climates and products, We will form a union whch will keep our waterways safe, and will fight for our own lands as America has done.” The result will be that the present great emigration from England, which is going to build up the United States, will be diverted to her Colonies, and develop them enormously. Free Trade in this Union is not absolutely necessary. What is mu- tually discriminating tariff of, say 10 per cent. between Britain and her Colonies, as This would form

Notes and Ciippings.

—Quebee politicians now fix the begin- ning of January for the local elections.

—An English syndicate is still busily engaged iu an attempt to secure possession of the Minneapolis flouring mills. It is learned that an option has been given the Englishmen on several of the largest milling concerns in that city which would give the purchasers combined capacity of 22,000 barrels of flour per day, the control of St. Anthony water power and also one of the most complete elevator systems in the world. An English accountant is now examining the books of the various firms. It is stated should the deal be consuu:mated that the entire business will be capitalized at from $8,000,000 to $10,000,000.

—According to a recent Washington des- patch a number of perplexing questions have been presented to the Treasury de- partment in regard to the enforcement of the alien contract labor law as it applies to persons employed in this country, who re- side just across the Canadian and Mexican borders. A complaint has been lodged against the officer of a bank in Vermont, near the Canadian border line, where he has a residence in Canada. He has cross- ed the border line to his business nearly every day for the past 40 years, and it is charged that hiv employment is in contra- distinction to the contract labor law. Com- plaint has also been made against the prac- tice of allowing Mexican and Canadian la- borers to enter the United States territory for a day’s work. These matters are all under investigation.

—Toronto Globe: “Some people ask why the newspapers, while they express disapproval of prize fighting, yet publish accounts of contests like the Sullivan-Kil- rain fight. A newspaper which publishes accounts only of events of which it ap- proved would be a queer affair. It would, if it advocated law and order, publish no accounts of offences against law and order. If it loved peace it would publish no ac- counts of wars. It would, we admit, be wrong and inconsistent for a journal to print such reports as to tempt people to do that of which it editorially disapproves. And if the newspapers which disapprove of prize fighting should find that the people who read the reports of the Sullivan-Kil- rain match are at once possessed of a long- ing to have their persons pounded into a pulp by Mr. Sullivan, they certainly ought to cease publishing them.”

-An Ottawa special to the Empire says : It is understood that a reply has been for- warded by the government to the despatch received from the imperial authorities some few weeks ago, re the fortifications of Es- quimalt. The request that the Canadian government pay for the sustenance of one hundred men of the Royal Marine Artil- lery, to be stationed at Esquimalt, is under- stood to have been declined. The Govern- ment adheres to its original proposals, viz : that Canada shall build earthworks for the proposed fortification, at a cost of $75,000, maintain a battery of artillery in the vicinity, and keep up the militia forces in British Columbia in as effective a state as in other parts of the Dominion. On the other hand, it is suggested that the Im- perial government provide armament for the fortifications and maintain a detach- ment of the Royal Marine Artillery at Es- quimalt. An answer is expected in a week or two,

—The Pall Mall Gazette gives prominence to an interview with Doctor Hawley, Apostolic Prefect of Newfoundland, now in London, who warns England of the danger of that colony seeking annexation to the United States as the only way of obtaining redress against French inter- ference with the fisheries. He says :— The United States feed Newfoundland and do the most of its trade, and therefore the natural tendency is towards annexation. Besides, the Colony is profoundly impressed with the resolute action of the United States in dealing with Germany in the Samoan affair, contrasted with England’s reluctance to support Newfoundland against France. ‘In fact,” he says, ‘‘ John Bull allows his nose to be tweaked with im- punity, but brother Jonathan would not allow France to pluck his beard.” The Gazette thinks that the situation is very serious.

Temperance Excursion.

Anour # hundred persons, including the Most Worthy Patriarch and leading tem- perance workers in this city, took train for Alberton yesterday morning. Arriv ng tiers early in the forenoon, they had ample time to refresh the inner man before the meeting of the Grand Division, which was held in the afternoon. In the evening a large public meeting was held which was addressed by Rev. Mr. Temple (Most Worthy Patriarch) Rev, Mr. Carr, Mr. David Small, of this o-, Ee WwW. McNeill, Simpson, of Hamilton, and other gentlemen. The train left Alberton in charge of Con- ductor Kelly, and made the return trip to this city in four hours. All the passengers were sober—and all enjoyed the excursion. Messrs. Foster and Hine of this city fur- nished good music with their cornets.
