In a great many cases they came here for the benefits they gould get from eon- ditlons in this country and having amassed what amounts to a fortune In their eyes they are planning to make the best it back home. Some had een here much longer than others but great proportion of them left with well filled purses. Whether that was so with regard to lhe 312 families which have gone from his country to the provinee of Quebec n the past year, half of whom have get- led on farms, is not known but when 1t g declared by the minister of coleniza- ton for that province that one Capa- fian returning from the United States s worth 260 other immigrants it is to be inferred that some credit is at least siven to the fact that they have been residents of this country even though fue allowance must be made for the ‘act that they were first Canadians and ihought well enough of the dominion to Jeturn there.

SAFEGUARDING THE RECORDS. At various times as firés have de- stroyeqd valuable and irregplaceabls rec- ords attention has been called to the fadlure to provide the proper safeguards againét such possibilities. The demand is pertinent whersver vital records of town, city, staté or féderal governments ‘are ipvolved, but it Is unfortunately the cass that in too many Instances there ts deélay In attending to such matters until something has been destroyed that cannot be @uplicated. The oty of Mon- treal recently lost its city hall involv- ing about ten million doHars and it was but recently that the roof of the United States treasury bullding was afire, Whilo the number of Instances where fire has @estroyed charts, accounts and books of inestimable value are many. The need under such conditions was for fireproof vaults, or buildings for the storage of the doouments. Many are the instances where reliance has been placed upon safes and vaults only to find that the heat has caused much de- struction within. > Thus there cannot fail to be a reali- zation that a meve in the right direction is being made by ‘he court of common council in directing the finance commit- tee to ascertain as soon as possible what is needed in o>der to. make the vaults containing the city records fireproof ‘What is desired Is a full degree of pro- tection. If ‘the interior equipment fis not what will serve to safeguard the books which should be guarded agalnst the ravages of fire no time should be tost in securing what will. It is to be sincerely heped that there will mever be any fire that -will endanger (hem, but 1 there ghould be, and that is a con- tingency that must be considered, it Is but the part of wisdom that the city should have its records under what can be regarded as adequate protection agalnst’ destructlon. Wooden shelves and cunboards in the vaults can hardiy be rated in such a manner and the time for dealing Wwith such a condition is be- fore rather than after a fire. he TIME FOR ECONOMY. When the report is made that the committee has eliminated the third of a million appropriation for free seeds from the agricultural bill it shows that the committee at this time is convinced ven as it been on previous occa- sions that v expenditure ocught not to be made, or else it is anticipated by the committee what congress will do Tegardless of its recommendations.

But, had Rabshaw only known it, his troubles were only bgginning— for ene of the bandits, a man by the name of Meaney, datermined to fight for his life with every weapon that the law afforded him. Securing an attorney familiar with the kinks and twists of eriminal law, he quickly succeeded in manufactur- an albi which ap ed to be jron=clad. Half a dozen witnesses swore that, at the time Bouker was shot, Meaney had been in their com- pany. and that it was physically im- possible for him %o réach the scene of the crime in time to take part in the murder.

His father was a merchant of eminence, but an uncle took care of Mungo and gave him a liberal education, His inclina- tion was for a military life in which sh; to th be or. dr: to in gloriously distinguished themselves. Mungo served with distinction two campaigns with the royal regi- ment of Scotch Greys, and in 1745 he fought with Lord Loudon, a relative, who commanded the Royal Hightland- ers. Not long after the decisive bat- tle of Culloden, Jord Louden procured the appointment for his kinsman a5 officer of the excise. In the discharge of this new duty Mr. Campbell behav- ed with strict integrity’ to the crown, vet with so much civility as to conci jate the .affections of all those with whom he had any transactions. x Campbell was so exceptional in his whole conduct that all the nobility and thi ha estates, However, he was very moder- and a river in Lord Eglington’s es- tate, afforded the finest fish in the country, and he would willing have angled there, but his lordship was as strict with his fish as with his game. One of the duties of €ampbell was| to search for smugglers in the sec-| tion where he presided, and tec do thi he was compelled to cross the estate of the Earl of Eglington. Upon one| occasion he shot a hare which had surprised him by springing across his| path. The Earl was very angry, and it was with difficulty that Campbell wag able to appease his wrath. Later he again got in trouble with the Barl through arresting one of his servants caught smuggling whisky, and final while out trying to catch smugglers, which he heard were lurking in the neighborhood on Oct. 24, 1769, th same servant informed the Earl tha Campbell was trespassing on his grounds and armed. . Eglington went out to meet him with attendan’g and he demanded of him his gun.- 'this Campbell refused to de liver, wherenpon the Earl dismounted | [§ and approached Campbell in a threat- || ening manner.

Lord Eglingten's seat wa about three miles from the place whi the fatal accident happened; and his servants placed him in a carriage to‘ convey him homé. In the mean time | Campbell's hands were tied behind him and he was conducted to the town of Sajtcotes, the place of his former sta- tion as exciseman. ) Lord Eglington died after languish- ! ing for 10 hours, and Mr. Campbell was committed the following day to the prison of Ayr, and the following month removed to Edinburgh in prep- aration for his trial before the High Court of Judiciary: previous to which } his case was discussed by coumsel, and | the following argument was adduced ! in his favor: “That the gun went off by accident, and supposing it had been ! fired with the intention to kill, it was justifiable because of the violent prov- ocation he had receivd.” ) The prosecution urged in answer: “That malice was implied for the rea- son that Campbell in presenting his gun to his Lordship, said to him that unless he kept off he would shoot him; and that the Farl haa the right to seize his gun in virtue of several acts of Parliament. After repeated debates between the lawyers of Scotland, a day was at length appointed for the trial, which commenced on the 27th of February, 1770, before the High Court of Judi ciary; and the jury having found Mr. Campbell guilty, he was sentenced to death. The Lord Justice Clerk, before he: pronounced the solemn sentence ad- Vised the prisoner to make the most devout preparations, as all hopes of pardon would be precluded from the nature of the offense. Through the whole course of the trial the prisoner's behavior was remarkable for calmness and serenity, and when it -was ended he bowed to the court with the utmost composure, but said not a single word in extenuation of his crime. He was found dead in his cell on the morning | of Feb. 22, 1770, hanging to the end @ form which he had set upright, hav- ing fastened a silk handkerchief ed, M sh sh; be th Cl POWDER Duuiu‘q years mothers and nurses have found nothing to _equal Sykes’Comfort Powder to clear the skin from gh&& infllmmfliol,empfiow infant scalding and prevent it from becoming thus affected when used daily.

We must all admit that our laws have not reached a perfect state as yet and that there is sufficient room for improvement. Now, Mr. Editor, may 1 ask why so many immigrants . have migrated from the shores of all countries to this land? They, too, are perspaded by a longing to escape from their country where there is no hope of reward for hard work. Even they are desirous of soing to a land recognized as a true giver to those who are - willing to serve their fellowman. Then, too, they wish to flee from the heavy taxations which holds them in poverty. To these asser- tions T can answer in the affirmative and I am the son of {mmigrants and proud of both. May I say that nearly all T have came in contact with of foreign birth regardless of natlonality, were in- spired by one of these motives in leav- ing their loved ones.
