This is the question o: the hour. l'ul‘llamrlli is ptorogued. 'l c.- Guvn rument is sustained by a very in: -e majority of the people's representa- tizt-s. It is strong enough to take an i1-.e[~nde11t and fearless stand in favor o: fill} ci-anee which the circumstances 0 Ihe countrv may seem to demand. 1' goes without saying that the present st‘uation i.~ suflicicntly serious to make , tot-111051 careful consideration an [Ut'i pcl'ttlli'c dmy. What is that situation ? Some of" the journals which support the tiuvcrntnrnt and the National Policy plrnist in wearing their tenders that ‘llit! country is prospcious, the people :1 latench and everything satisfactory. l: is true. we dare say, that there are .cw-tniderable classes of the peeple who a. content with things as they are. Til-re art the individuals who are themâ€" se‘t'es comfortable or prosperous. Men or ants who are favorably situated, man- ufacturers who enjoy the advantages of' tie monopolies creatt-d by the restriction or trade, bankers and holders of bank filL'Clt', Government officials, professional men in assured positions, in short all those who are so favored by circum- st‘ noes, often it may be as the result of their own successful eudeutors in the p. >1. that they now scarcely feel the struggle for existence which is gomg on mound them, and which is steadily lI-lclng thousands of' those less favorably s-tuated out of the countryâ€"these will be found to be, as 11 rule, the classes who are now contented with the pros- lut'lfi ol the Dominion and ready to de- nounce as traitors or ‘bluc-rulu' pessi- mists those who conscientiously believe and declare that the country is in a more unsatisfactory ccodition than it has been at any time within the last 40 , years. But let these prosperous classes btcp out from the narrow precincts of lituli‘ own little paradises; let them go - among thepeople who are in the thick of the fight. those whose stalwart sons are leaving the country as fast as they come to years of maturity, not of choice, but because they can find no opportunity for making a comf'oitablc living with l‘t-nSOlltihltl prospects for future better- ment in their own land, and see if they will not find reasons to modify their optimistic conclusions. It is not. for the pleasure of' it that a Canadian jour- nal chooses such a theme. But surer it is the part of' true patriotism to look unpleasant facts fairly in the fans and see whether there may not be some way in which they may be effectually mct a..d transformed. Howover private in- inviduals of Sanguine temperament may succeed in persuadng themselves that t'.osc things which they do not wish to zu- e do not exist. we cannot believe that "-0 leading members of the Canadian (.l :vt-rnmcnt are blind to the real state t’l affairs. They must know, what some t-f their ablest supporters freely admit. that the National Policy, whatever may lave been its effects in the past, is no longer equal to the demands of' the sit- u-itiou. They must know too that the policy of preferential trade with the . “lilpll‘t‘, to which many have been look- ’. iiiug as the future hope of the country, i- no longer within the horiZon of' prac- , '1 cal politics orol' reasonable cxpeeation. lie-coiling, as they do, in common with thousands even of their political oppo- n--nts, from the suggestion of reciprocity with the United States on the only terms on which it is attainableâ€"--dis~ elimination against the mother country â€"-â€"it. is surely time that. they were set ting themselves in downright earnest. to the task of' finding the way out. They e-n hardly lail to perceive that the ‘ in- etorioua policy of' drlf't ’ is already inaugurated and whither it threatens to . v u'ry us. The greater the difliultics to h.- overcome, the grander tho opportu . pity for a display of the higher qualities ol'statesmanship. As one of' the signs of the times. journals which have in the taut nrdently supported the National Policy are now casting about for substi- ; tubes. Inperial free trade and absolute ;. free trade are among the schemes mooted. : but the former would involve di~criminâ€" « ation against other nations. to which » (ll-eat Britain would be forced toobji-ct, and bah would involve great loss oi revenue. and, as a consequence. tlll‘cct g-taxatiun. which woqu be specially ob- ,‘Hvttlt'UPR to a E‘lilplt‘ acciistntned to indi- l‘ct cathode of taxation But what “Wu (in; Unv: rlli|l.\."t propose?

London Mutual they are insured while posturing on the premises of the insured only. 5. When articles are insured specifically, such as musical instruments, the Royal Canadian is obliged to pay the full amount insured up to the cash value of the article. The London Mutual pays only two-third of the cash value, no matter what the in- surnncc may be. 6. When “ordinary contents " of out buildingsnrc insured by the Royal Canadian ALI. implements are included. In the Lon- don Muiuul only one reaper and one mowur are included, no matter how good other: may be. 7. When the outbuildings are not joined to each other the Royal Canadian insurel under one sum the “ ordinary contents " oi all building not cut oil by a distance great- er than 40 th, the same as if the content: were all under one roof. The London Mu- tual requires it Separate sum 011 the t‘ull- tents of' each building, if' the distance. ll more than 12 ft. This is a very important difference in many cases. 8. In the Royal Canadian it is a part of the contract that standard swan 'rnnnsnana may be used without a special permit and without any restriction as to the distance from stacks or buildings, caretakers, pails of water, kind of' fuel or direction of the wind. Many of the policy holders in the London Mutual were obliged to. run tht own risk while threshng last season, b cause it was found to be impossible to cum- piy with the conditions of their permit. , When a farmer pays for insurance he should secure a policy which will hold him safe when it is must required. 9. The Royal Canadian is obliged to pay its losses within sixty days and usually takes much less. The London Mutual need not pay for ninety days, and since it bar become an hard up as to be obliged to her- row money largely, it usually takes about lite full time allowed. in. The Royal Canadian policy is subject to the statutory conditions only. It has none of the 11nmcrous variations against the policy-holder printed in red ink on th back of" the London Mutual policy. ll. As to security, the inspector of insu- rance reports that. the Royal Canadian has $202,768, the amount he estimates to be necessary to enable the company to carry out all its engagements with its policy holders. Besides this he reports that it has to the good the $400,000 capital paid "in cash by the shareholders, and 11 net surplul Si l7,607 making in all a total cash surplus of $5|7,Uu7 to protect its policy-holder: against unexpected contingencies. in ad- dition to them: cash items it has n subscrib- ed capital of" $00,000 not called up. lie- gut-dint,r the security of the London Mutual the inspector reports that the ntnontli. ul unearned premium it should have on hand is $21i0,309. To make up this amount in cash a second call would have to be made on the premium nole for a large amount. It-nvuig a. surplus of" only $74,2l8, even if there were no bad debts, and this surplus is made up wholly ol‘ the unpaid buluflf? of' pr. tnium notes already heavily USSCSH' . The Company reports the losses adjusted but unpaid at the "close of the year at till).- 1487, but the inspector of institution limit that the liability for unpaid losses at the end of” the year was $211,256. The cash on $13,911. In View of the foregoing facts [lumen will have no diflieuliy in dectdlng us to the company in which they should be insured. For insurance apply to S. COliNElL, Agent, Lindsay.
