Our subscribers cannot with justice complain that THE POST is dull or un- interesting when they receive weekly ten large pages filled with the choicest and freshest telegraphic news from all quar- ters of the globe, as well as a very com- plete summary of local and district events gathered by our correspondents and report- ers. We are ever striving to make Tm: Post a better paper for the home. and are cheered by the fact that in addition to a constant accession of new subscribers we receive many encouraging letters from persons who have taken the paper for many years, and whose words of commendation are highly appreciated. Owing to the demands made upon our space, first by the election contests and later by the reports of the fall fairs. we have been unable to give our usual com- plement of story. omission will now be repaired ; for the next two months we purpose printing a series of short but intensely interesting tales, and the first issue of the new year will contain the opening chapters of a serial story that will captivate old and young. Between now and the first of the year will be a capital time for new subscribers to join, as the paper will be mailed to any address in Canada or the United States untill January 1st, 1898, for the small sum of One Dollar. 5â€"“â€" EDITORIAL N O T38 A Winnipeg paper says that Lord Aber- deen, when he reaches that city on his way to the Pacific coast, will swear in Attorney-general Sifton as minister of the ' l1 terior.

Among the many promising persons mentioned as probable senators is Mr. H. H. Burnham, of Port Hope, the president of the reform association of East Durham. Mr. Burnhsm’s accession to such an office would be very gratifying to a host of friends. The World’s Montreal correspondent nominates Sir Oliver Mowat for a place on the judicial committee of the Imperial He is doing excellent _â€" privy council. work in his present position and is quite to young at 75 to think of being banished from his native land or shelved upon the bench.

The warrna’ ought to pull her hubby's hair for even thinking of such nanghtiness Neither of Wales nor the Emperor of Germany would go around incog., and the Sultan of Turkey doesn't have to. The resignation of Lord Rosebery as leaderof theBritish liberals had to come Isoonerorlstter, andtheexcuseof a diff- erence of opinion on the Armenian ques- tion h as good as any other. The aboli- tion of aristocratic privilege and a fair distribution of the wealth produced by labor are the great coming questions in British politics, and no lord can properly leads party determined upon rsdrcalrs- form. _____â€" The uiual complaints are being made in connection with fall fairs that people ex- hibit things that are not their own ploduction and take prizes on them, to which, under the rules, they are not on- titled. It is diflicult to see how this can be prevented. The ture can do legisla nothing more than pass laws afi'ecting the matter, leaving it to the authorities to en- force them. There is said to be more crooked work done in connection With the fall fairs than outsiders have any idea of. The Winnipeg Tribune expresses some regret that the portfolio of the ntierior has not been filled, and seems to imagine the eficiency of the department may be impaired in consequence. This is not the ease. The Hon. R. W. Scott is acting as the minister and brings his experience as commissioner of crown lands with him in- to the department. There has been no complaints as to the administration of the business, and a little delay more or less is, now that the session is over, of compara- tively small moment. The government did well in knocking oil' the usual supply of trunks and station- ery to senators and members of parlia- ment. The practice had grown to be a scandal, thousands of dollars being spent every year in supplying stationery which no human being could use up during the session, and to which the members were not entitled for their private use. The senators were more extravagant than the commoners. but both alike were parties to a wasteful expenditure of public funds. It wps high time that the leak was stop- ped, and the liberal government deserve credit for stopping it, even if some of their own friends were against it. L'Electeur charged that the Quebec post office had been grossly mismanaged ; that it had been operated as a partisan machine, copies of grit papers being sup- pressed or charged extra rates while tory papers and campaign literature were sent through free. The chief post-cfiice in- spector has just concluded an inquiry and reports that there were general and gross irregularities in respect to such matters, and that the officials have been “repri- manded.” If the post-master-oeneral per- mits the matter to rest there he is not the man we take him to be. Reprimands are not the proper punishment for such violations of duty. The agricultural question is attracting attention in France at present. In a re- cent issue of “La Croix et Courone" it calls attention to the alarming increase in the candidates for the so-called liberal professions, and the apparent abandon- ment of the soil. It shows that only 800 students have presented themselves for the study of agriculture and kindred sub- jects during a year, while on the other hand there have been 8,776 law students 7,728 medical students, 2,668 in pharmacy, and 5,032 in sciences and letters. Thirty- six millions of people and 800 agricultural students ! This is a bad sign for France, but at the same time Canada must not for, get that very similar conditions prevail here. The problem should be faced be- fore it assumes the alarming proportions witnessed in France, and which threatens he future existence of the country. It would seem that Lord Rosebery was a better foreign secretary than leader of the liberal party. His resignation of the leadership of the party would indicate that it lacks cohesion and unity of opinion. Taken all in, all there are very few in the old country who would be inclined to agree with Mr. Gladstone that Great Britain should take upon herself the haz- ardous and certainly thankless task of dealing sings handed with the Eastern question. nglsnd may be great on land and see. but in view of her responsibilities it would be the extreme of folly for her to rush into agiflundeorgshéng which. in the present con _ on uroposn afl'aifl, aphid be eggmlent to co arises disaster. . teed some caedaicspumgyetthemayor last Sun. daytcokaballotvotecfthocaroperators TmmezJoy irradiates the soulof Hon, Geo.
