There are few dull moments for Pro- hibitionists these days. The proverbial apathetic Temperance man must be pretty thoroughly aroused by this time if he resides in this Canada 'of ours. One sensation follows another so rapidly that no sleepy fellow could keep track of them. Royal Commissions. Provin- cial plebiscites, Dominion plebiscites, Type-written pledges. License legisla- tion, political coutorticus, indignation conventions, Government deputations, Legislative debates, have brought a veritable whirl of interest to the dis- cussion of the reform, and now comes the news that. Lord Salisbury will send the most noted liquor lord of Britain’s legislators to succeed Aberdeen as Gov- ernor-General of the Dominion. One would think that the overwhelm- ing Temperance sentiment of this coun- try would be entitled to some consider- ation in a matter of this kind. Perhaps it: has had too much consideration. It is just possible that some shrewd diplo- mat has undertaken to check the rising tide of public opinion in favor of out- lawing the drink, by installing upon the mimic throne of Canada a personifica- tion of the liquor interest. The Duke of Leeds is said to be immensely weal- thy, the gains of gin. The laws of Great Britain have protected him and his partners in the manufacture and sale of an article that has robbed and demoralized the people beyond all com- parison. A man is none the less a robber because he can hide behind on- just and immoral statutes. The wealth that is made by gin is filchod from the poorest and most degraded of England's people. All the titles and insignia of the empire that: may be heaped upon the duke of' Leeds will not gloss over the fact that he is a gin maker with all its well understood qualifications. ‘ His appointment would be an insult to the overwhelming majority of Cana- dians, who have resolutely made up their minds to free their own land from the curse of the Duke's “trade.” The very suggestion should .be promptly reâ€" sented. There is no necessity for any hysterics, or any harsh language, but there should be a vigorous, firm and dignified protest on the part of the Temperance people of Canada against the appointment of a. liquor man to the post of Governor-General. This is what the Tonylar proposes, and it will be. glad to hear from the friends of the reform with regard to the matter. An article in the Toronto Woer upon the Duke of Leeds contained some inâ€" teresting reading from this point. of' view, and we clip the following para- graphs from it : “ The Duke himself, besides being a man of considerable wealth, of much geniulty and spirit of repartee, brings to the vice-royaltya flavor of liquor which is sure to contribute to the joviulty of' his reign. In England he goes by the name of the “gin duke," being the senior partner and managing director of the great firm of Ilolinnd & Co, which probably has the largest gin business in the United Kingdom, and which bears a name that is known to consumers of spirits in every part of the world, civi- lized and uncivilized. He derives large profits from this source, and whenever he has been able to spare a moment from his Parliamentary duties he has been in the habit of rushing ofl‘ to Dept- ford, where the distilleries are, to see how things are getting on. It. is need- less to say that the young Duke is as popular with the liquor dealers. great and small, as he is the reverse with the temperance folk. In fact, to the latter he appears as a sort of evil spirit, not only because he takes an active part in the manufacture and sales of ardent spirits, but likewise because he is the champion of a very liberal compensation for those liquor dealers who find their business ruined by the extension of the temperance propaganda."

A very clever and able thinker walk- ed into the sanctum a week ago to arm-e with us about departmental stores. [To expressed the view that it were better for the farmer and mechanic to buy cheap goods. “ Let the farmer sell his produce for the best. he can get,” said he, “ and then buy to the best; advan- tage wherever he can. If he can do better buying in big concerns, whv should not he consider it best to do so 1"" “ What would become of the towns and villages ?" “ What need he care so long as he has the city market?” At first sight this looks like good sound reasoning, and we have no hope of con- viuciug some people that it. is not so. We take this ground, however, that. there must be a consumer as well as a producer. Departmental Stores are run with hands at. starvation wages, who cannot be very great consumers. Ma- chinery is replacing mechanics, printers. artists and all other workers. Who will be the consumers after a while? It is a certainty that towns and cities have been great consumers in the past. but we are at present pursuing a course which will leave nothing but half paid people and wealthy syndicate owners to do the consuming. These views were presented to our friend, and he prompt- ly responded by saying that. laws would have to be made to regulate wealth in the hands of rich people. This was an- other at‘gument hard to get arounvl. but; it; proclaimed our friend to be a Social- ist. He. would foolishly pursue a course which would tend to mukca f'cw intâ€" mensely rich and all the rest innueasur- ably poor. He would have all hands run to the rich syndicate with their trade, and. when they finally saw the rum they had wrought; on ninetypino out of a hundred, he would turn around and take away the rich man’s wealth and divide it. up. This is the direction world is drifting. servers and bargain hunters. Wo de~ mand that foreign markets shall be found for our products, while at the same time we are killing off the consum- er at home. It was the Grangcrs and Patrons who raised the cry that middle men were nothing but leeches. and from that day the home consumer was (loom- ed. Could there be a worse piece ol' nonsense invented than the idea that; Toronto will be, able to consume all the farm prod co in the country when the towns and villages are laid waste? The only market for any country to always rely upon is the home market. Foreign consumption is an uncertain thing. We. have been findingr this out in Canada for fifty years. We know we may feed and supply our own people, but we, may be shut out from any and every foreign market. The Americans are just now teachingr us a useful object lesson if ave will but learn. It is every fitrumr's best planâ€"his only safe plan-~40 keep up as big a town as possible as close in him as possible. llo should strive to prevent his money from going farther away than that town. If he spnud his cash there it; will come back to hivu for more produce. If he carry it to routo bargain hunting it will never r.-â€" turn. We should look ahead of'us in this as in other things. The wealthy people of a town am generally the worst; offenders in this matter. We heard on Saturday of the owner of a series of' stores in a town who bought wall paper at I‘lutou’s to decorate premises where one of his tenants is an extensive dealer in wall paper. We set: people who own stores and whose rents are swiftly coming down, who take in every cheap excursion to Toronto and brin;r home a dray load of goods. Um: wealthy man said to us recently : “ Imuk at this suit I have on. Ipaid 37.5” for it." No merchant in this town ever dared to spread such shoddy on hi.~ counter. except as ready-made. It. um woven of waste material and made in a sweatshop. No person connected on}. its manufacture could nflord to l)'l\' t pound of prime butter or a dozen tit-.h eggs from a thrifty farmer's wile. _poor article is a loss in the world from start to finish.
