From press reports we gatlicr that crops of all kinds are good this year Ihroiighoul Caimda, with rare esccp- tious over Biuall areas. Fruit is moat bountiful and grain will yield above tbfl average. The recent political revolut ion in Canada is not followed by a "clean Bweep" of ofiico-lioldcrg. As the civil service in the provinces is practically on a uon partisan basis, there will bo little disliubance of public positions. 4ftcr being in the minority during a period of eighteen years, ilie Liberals as-sume power ; but no "spoils system" will drive out, and drag in, men who lose and gain ofl'ice for political reasons, irrespective of merit. To these victors belong toil, and not spoil. Re- sponsibility to th peo'^'lifor a proper use of power, rather than a rich opportunity to profit at tlie expense of thecountr}, ii the chief fruit of this trinmph. Txuo patriolibui demands this in anj country.- -Youth's Companion. The Toronto World dosiroE the press of the country to discuss the qaestiou of calling a dcminion conven- tion of Liberal Conscivativcs. Our idea can be compressed into a few words. Don't. The time is not op- portune, The party has not got the dust rubbed olT ita back ami out of its eyes after the late tumble, and docs not yet clearly nndorstand the species of game it has to «uu for. The bird, you know, lias not been seen in this country for the past oighiecu ycaia in knylhiiig but a helpless condition. Let UB see what kind of scratching it will do now that it owns the barn- yard, bcfoio " shooing " it. In plain English, lot ua have one se.sKioii uf parliament, and in tiie nicantimo watcb and wait. Then a convention for organization and aggressive war- fare nmv be talked of. illuutriouB (adopted) son of Spain, Columbus, repose in the cathedral at llavanna. Wo believe there are few countries and fewer people who do not sympathize with the Culians in theirjstrugglo to throw oflf the grind- ing yoke of Sn.'iin. Any person who reads the bloody history of Spain can- not but wonder that she baa been permitted to hold her possessions as long as she bus imd retain her posi- tion among christian powers. But retributive justice appears at last to be after her slowly but surely. For many months now the natives of Cuba have been making a brave slrugjjle for liberty and itjdependeiicp, and the contest, it is believed, is near- iji|^ the end. All correspondents iu the islutid concur in the belief that it is only a mutter of a short lime until Cuba will bo freed from tlio tyrannical aad grinding yoke of Spain. Tliif unfortunate island was colonized by Bi>am in 1GI1, and the colonization was marked, as were all of Spain's conqiiest.s, witti rapine and bloodshed. It haa remained a colouy of the Span- ish crown ever aince, but, the piescnt is not the firat insutrootionary war the island has lean, one haviii;; broken ont iu 18(W, eonliiiuiiig iiiteiinitteutly until 1878. Slavery was abolihhed only It-ii yiava ogo. The island is VeO miles in length, from 20 to 120 miles widt; and conlains 43,220 square miles. It will go hard with Spain to r^liuquiiih this mast valuable posucs- siun, because not only docs the island jjuy her own cost of government, but it has helped the mother couutry largely in her wars and gives fat sal- a.iiesto Spanish giandoes, who, octo- rata- like, have been draining lier vitals, t'l^tpoly Ibis, but tj^e. aiihoa of that Entrance and Leaving Results The followiin; in the cowploto lint of the Entrance mid Leaving e.iiulidateK who pnsKed tliu.so cxiiininaliuiis or were recuiiiiiiondeil by the Board of Kx.ani- inors for the centreu named.
