From the documents brought down, and from the statements accompany- ing them, in both the Imperial and Canadian Houses, it appears that the British Commissioners had, from the first desired a reference of the dispute to a board of arbitration constituted in accordance with the principles ac- cepted in the Venezuelan dispute. The Americans, however, wanted a different system adopted, and requir- ed moreover as a sine qua non, that certain concessions should be made by Britain which both the Imperial and Canadian Governments considered were matters for arbitration. The Outlook is Brighter. This was the insurmountable diffi- culty which caused the break in the progress of the work of the Commis- sion, and it has frequently been de. clared by all parties that ifthis were removed the discussion of all other points had so far advanced, and with such excellent effect that a satisfac- tory settlement on almost every ques- tion was practically assured if' only the Alaskan boundary diftiolty could be got out of the way. The business of parliament has not progressed very rapidly this week in spite of the fact that the proceedings have been marked by the longest con. tinnous sitting since the memorable six days anti-remedial session of 1896. The week has however been occupied bv several matters of more than ordin. ary interest as for example the boundary controversy and the Grand Trunk trackmen's strike. Since the announcement by Sir Wil. frid Laurier at the beginning of the week, cable despatches from [nation have been most encouraging, indeed the latest advices announce with an murance almost oNeial, that a settle- ment has been arrived at between Lord Salisbury and Mr. Choate, the American Ambassador, and that the long-standing obstacle exists no long- er. This being the case the Canadian Commissioners will go back to com- plete their labors with the eouh'dent expectation of realizing to the fall the bright anticipations which so many feared were too sanguine, and which some sections of politicans ridiculed as impossible and absurd.

Some. Interesting Hatters Spieilr Treated. Long before, the matter came up in Parliament at all, Sir Wilfrid Laurier was exerting bis strong; personal intltt- ence in an effort to bring the disput- ants together, while the Minister oi Railways was giving proper attention to that aspect ot the situation which came under his special notice, and was taking awry necessar) step to protect the lives and property of the travelling public. All this was being done without any parade, or public announcement, but .t was being done none the loss oli’uomully. and a happy termination ol tho tlii"iicutity appeared to ho in slain, wlum Messrs.

Their services Were not sought after by either the company or the men, but the sv!f-eonsstitutcd tnechator's doubtless hit that the. situation Was too serious " their movements to he limnpei-ed by " close observance of the strict runs of ordinary procedure. I'nhappily their conduct of the negoti- n'ions throughout was equally hasty and ill-considered, with the result that they advised the men to termin. ate their strike. without having fipst obtained a perfectly clear understand- ing with, the, Railway authorities. As a consequence the _whole husiness has been hmllr bungled, and the men placed in ll tar Worse position than they Were til', the start. The govern- ment, hon-cur, has not relaxed its efforts to secure better terms for the unfortunate trackmen, and there is good reason to hope that these efforts will yet result in a permanent im. provement in existing conditions.

Annual Meeting on Saturday last. On Saturday last the annual meet- ing of the Farmers' Institute was held in the Town Hall. It was not largely attended, but was quite represent- ative in character. The coming excursion was discuss- ed, and all were gratified at the pros- Peet ot the good support it was likely to receive. Mr. Gorsline introduced the subject ot "Testing Experiments " carried out by the, Agricultural colleges, and it was found that quite a number pre- sent had tried some test or other, though opinions differed as to their value. The election of otfieers followed. Mr. Wm. Young is the retiring Presi- dent and his successor is Reeve Morice ofNormanby. We congratulate Mr. Notice on his elevation.
