The boycott or strike, commenced a couple of weeks ago in the United States by a number of people who agreed to abstain from eating meat in an effort to reduce the price of that commodity, has spread rapidly, and has extended to some sections of Canada. A movement of this kind, if taken part in by enough people, and continued for a sufficient length of time, can scarcely. fail to have an effect in the desired direction; in fact, a drop in prices has already been reported in a. few of the affected locali- ties. But the reduction in the consump- tion and price of meat may have unde-_ sirable results in other directions. One newspaper writer is afraid that the demand for vegetables will increase and the price go up, and inquires what there is to prevent those having control of the potatoes, parsnips, cabbages, etc., of the country from combining to ad- vance the price of these articles. The meat boycott, if effective, will re- duce the profits of the dealers, and, if the effect should happen to reach as far back as the farmer and make the pro- duction of boot by him less profitable than it is, his spending power would be lessened, and he could not buy as much as he does now of the things manufac- tured by the to ks who are refusing to eat meat, and who would thus be in dan- ger of losing as much as they would an]. g As a result of the stir crczitcd by the meat boycott, the United States Con- gress has decided to conduct an inves~ tigation into the causes of the high cost of living. The members of the investigating committee will eat meat during their labors, and may be depend- ed upon not to discover that useless investigations add anything to the bur- dens of existence. .ELotf‘Olliiordiliale95W" Encouraged' In a large number of places, at the recent municipal elections, majorities were given for local option, but the measure was defeated by the three- . -.flft.hs requirement. In view of this a large dclegatidn waited on the Premier and Mr. Hanna. on Wednesday at the Parliament Buildings The Premier ex- pressed‘rogret that'hc could give only aboutâ€""fortyllive minutes to the-deputa- tion, owing to other pressing engage- ments. He also professed surprise at the large number of people in attend- ance. Mr. Burnham for Pctcrborough presented a strong appeal for some measure of relief from the great handi- cap of the three-fifths clause, and also for legislation to punish acts of bribery, intimidation, etc. Representatives from lh'antford, Lindsay, Picton and some of the larger places were heard and many others were prevented from speaking by lack of time. The Premier, while making some defense for existing laws, was fairly sympathetic to the in- sistent appeals for say a 55 instead of a. 60 per cent vote, and also for the privi- lege of submitting the question again in one or two instead of three years, and definitely promised legislation. for the punishment of bribery and other corrupt acts so notoriously prominent in many instances. It was remarked by all in a position to judge, that no such encour- agement along these lines had ever been given to any of the many deputations which had interviewed the government inregard to this matter. Mr. Hanna, as well as Mr. Whitney, intimated that serious consideration would be given, and the fair inference is that we will get results that will be more in accord with the wishes of the majority of the people in the important question of abolishing the bar rooms. Large congregations Hear Bishop Sweeney. Anniversary in the merning, and con- firmation in the evening attracted large congregations to St. James’ Church, Fen- elon Falls, on Sunday, January 30th. The Lord Bishop of the Diocese of Toronto, the Right Reverend J. Fielding Sweeney, 1). 1)., preached a magnificent sermon in the morning from the text _“ How dreadful is this place; this is none other than the house of God, and this is the gate of heaven "â€"~Genesis ‘28 : 17. in the afternoon the Bishop was driven to suppress Church, Vcrulam, where the church people turned out in full force to the service. The sermon of the l Bishop =was earnest and searching and made adeep impression. In the evening St. James' Church was filled to the doors, and despite the efforts of the officials to provide seating accom- modation .many had to go away. The _ the Rector, the Rev.. W. H. A. French. The choir beauti- ‘fully rendered ~Sin'ip'ers' Magnificat and Kane Dimittis, and the anthem “Send Out Thy Light." Just befope the. confirmation the, Rector in a few well. chosen words ex- pressed the appreciation and pleasure of the members of the congregation at the action of the Bishop in favoring the people of Fenelon Falls with an Episco- pal visitation on a Sunday so early in his Episcopate, and called upon the Wardens of St. James', R. M. Hamilton and E. English, to present to the Bishop an illuminated address, to signalize on behalf of the congregation their loyalty and attachment to His Lordship. The people’s church warden, Mr. R. M. Ham- ilton, read the following address : To the Right Reverend James Fielding Sweeney, D. D., Lord Bishop of Toronto: Reverend Father in God,â€" We the congregation of St. James’ Church, Fenelon Falls, desire on this your first visit to our church and parish to assure you of our unswerving loyalty to your ollice and person. We deeply appreciate your kindness and zeal in having found time so early in your Episcopate to visit a. congregation so far removed as we are from the head- quarters of the Diocese, and to be pres- ent with us at the Lord‘s Day services. We pray that the great Head of the Church may spare your life for very many years of faithful and eflective service for the cause of Christ in this Diocese; and may His Holy Spirit be your constant guide and stay. Signed on behalf of the congregation. R. M. Hamilton, Edward English, Churchwardens. ‘W. H. A. French, Rector. Sexagesima, 1910. The Bishop made a brief and feeling reply. His Lordship then addressed the candidates in a. most able and eloquent confirmation sermon taken from the words “So'run that ye may obtain ” - 1 Cor. 9: 24. Justice could not be done to the sermon short of giving it verbatim; but it is safe to say that the same sermon might be repeated at every place where confirmation is being given for the first time to the spiritual up- building of the Church. The candidates to the number of 19 were then confirmed; this number with a class presented on January 24th a year ago, making 44 candidates present- ed by the rector in a. year and six days. During the taking up of the oliertory Miss F. Brandon beautifully rendered Handel's Largo on the violin, accom- panied by the organ. . The people of the united parish of Fenelon and Verulam were charmed with their new Bishop and much edified and encouraged in their spiritual lives by his words of wisdom. A large num- ber of the leading men of‘ the town were present. The Bishop, accompanied by the Rev. Mr. French,drove over to Coboconk on Monday, January 31st,, to hold service in Christ Church. Coboconk. On arrival they found the Rector, the Rev. A. B. Chaffec, B. A., had prepared a class of candidates to present to the Bishop for confirmation. The Rector took the ser- vice, the Rev. W. H. A. French acting as Bishop's Chaplain. The Bishop gave a very spiritual and instructive address from the parable of the husbandman and the vine, after which the candidates were confirmed. The church was filled, and the service bright and hearty. 'As the Rev. A. B. Chalice presented a class for confirmation last May, he is to be congratulated upon the success of his labours during the year. After the service in the evening the Bishop was driven back to the Rectory at Fcnelon Falls to take the train to, Toronto the next morning. Personal. Mrs. B. 0.
