bat it would be still better for the country if its people coaid read and write.The Que-tion is being asked daily whether the frequency of murders aud ether scan-dalons Crimea has anything to do with the elaborate details of such crimes served up by Sunday and other newspapers.Neither a scandal nor a crime can occur anywhere but the vultures gather down upon it from a thousand miles around to carry of! the carrion for the feeding of their readers.There will need before long to be a reaction from a custom which is feeding whole nations upon crime, which is prostituting the education given in the common schools for the enlightenment of the people to familiarizing the whole race with the details of iniquity, and which is even taking possession of the blessed day set apart for lifting man s soul to God to bathe him in pollution.The Letters of Mr.J.8.Tupper and Mr.Hugh Macdonald laid before Parliament yesterday are apparently straightforward and circumstantial, and they directly deny Mr.Rykert's assertions that they were employed by him \u201cto work\u201d their fathers.Their firm was employed in the transactions, but apparently in an innocent way, in the inten-st of the vi< tim of Mr.Rykert's swindle rather than in Mr.Rykert ¦ own interests.Mr.Rykert's false exenses, for not meeting these letters with evidence of the truth of his statements also confirm the opinion that Àlcsirs.Tuppcr and Macdonald are innocent.Mr.Rykert should be ejected from Parliament and from public life : such action would be a good beginning of the work, cleansing of the Augean stables of Ottawa.There is a Glut or Grain in the west.Speculation in Chicago last fall kept the price of grain above a figure at which it could be exported to Great Britain in competition with the wheat of other countries, and farmers were encouraged to hold back their grain from the markets in the hope of even higher prices later on.It is not the gr>-at wheat exporting States which are now holders of wheat; It is the States which grow jnst about enough for their own consumption, and these States have been supplied with flour ground by the great mills at grain centres working upon the wheat of the States which usually export.Thus the consumers in the States which are the smaller producers having been eating the flour ground from high priced wheat of the States which are .the great producers, and have now their own grain on their hands and will have to sell it at a lower price than they could have got hod they sold it at once.It w as the Same Genius who sold to tome Kogllthmeii and KtiglUhwomen the privilege of buying calves in Three Rivera for two hundred thousand dollars, who planned the railway from Quebec to t'harlea Ray, on the Labrador coast.Neither Mr.Render nor Mr.Mercier nor Mr.Wench, t kuowa anything at all about the region from Lake St.John to Rttlliu'a Ray.Vet Mr.Rlauchet moved iu the Legislature, and Mr.Mercier supported a resolution approving of this scheme.Probably none of the majority w'ho carried this resolution realized that the distance from Quebec to Ua|>e Charles is equal to the distance from Quebec to Port Arthur at the far end of J .ake Superior.1 f they did it must be confessed that there is something particularly daring about the statesmen of our almost bankrupt province.Mr.Mercier was particular to refuse the insertion of a clause declaring that the Province of Quebec did not 1 in passing this resolution undertake to subsidize the enterprise.\t[ .- Land Ghaisuinh seems to bo in fashion | with members of the Legislature.ih>-y happen to be where they can hear of good bargains, and they are fast getting into sym- > pathy with the proverbial poor settler, in so ^ far as that desirable end can be attained by ; putting themselves in his place and scour- j in g land on the pre'.ence of being settlers.Somebody twitted an English member with his acquisitions of laud ; he threw il back to Mr.Mercier, whose acquirements in the name of himself and family amount to three thou-sand acres of the best land upon the route of a prospective railway.This railway, it was hinted, received its charter for the benefit cf the Menier family land.Mr.Mercier must have got very angry for he asked if Mr.Owens thought all the railways in the Pro-vicce were to be built for the English.The only meaning one can draw from this reply is that if there is boodlo going the Trench should have it, even if it ia out of the English the money is raised Mr.Mercier's ready if not very convincing answer to every charge seems to be to rail at the Kngliah.Mr.Taillon, the leader of the Opposition,who is at all events a good-natured man, asked Mr Mercier what he expected to pay for this attack upon the English, seeing that for the last one he had felt it necessary to pro pose a grant of ten thousand dollars for the Toronto University.There IIa> Recently Been an Outcry of the Protestant denominations from one end of the Dominion to the other against grants of public money for sectarian purposes.In many parts of the country this has been but a cry ; but in Manitoba it has taken substantial form iu action.The separate schools of tbe Roman Catholics have been assailed as a misuse of public money.How much easier it is to see a wrong which benefits others than one by which we ourselves benefit is illustrated by the fact that when the same movement took shape against the exemption from taxation of church property, the very denominations which could ocly see one side to the question of separate schools immediately took opposite ground aud formed a joint delegation to the Legislature to protest against the abolition of church exemptions.The Kpiscopalians, Presbyterians and Methodists are said to have all joined in this protest.For our part we see very little difference in prin- iple between a grant of public money and an exemption from taxation, unless it be the difference familiarly known as that between my ox and your cow, As long as it was a Roman Catholic institution xvhich claimed the benefit of the public money, such grants were regarded as iniquitous and unconstitutional ; but when it is Protestant institutions which benefit the thing appears in an entirely new light.D a Railway Company, inclined or otherwise, had deliberately set to work to build a track down a private avenue, without the permission of its owner, it in carrying out this design it had blasted away ledges of rock, dumped the fragments into a rough embankment, and erected a trestle of the most ugly description, what would the result have been 7 Would not the private owner w ho had been aggrieved have carried the matter before tne courts, and not only had the operations of the railway company restrained by the strong arm of the law, but have recovered heavy damages 7 That is not the way the Corporation of the city of Montreal defends the property entrusted to it, however.The railway company that has utterly destroyed one of its beautiful avenues, instead of being compelled to undo the damage it has caused is to be permitted to destroy the lawn as well.The simple fact of the case is that the Incline Railway Company has got its grip on the Park, and unless the people ace to it that this hold is relaxed instead of being tightened the ultimate result will be that the Incline Rxil-way Company will in a few years control the Park Commissioners, and the people will be permitted to use the park only at the convenience of the Company.The battle royal for the possession of tho mountain can be fought now for the salvation of Fletcher's field as well as in the future, and the sooner it is begun the better.The integrity of the park can be secured only by excluding all interests but those of the people from it, and the Railway Company should blt«.t: W.RI.FD, FOR THF.RF.HT WORK IN BOOKING OK Ah PH ALT I LOOKING.783 and 7H3 * rntjc *lreel.MONTREAL.^ALIFAv^ tXTKAC'1 CODLlVÊft\u2019 ^EciFinVôfl ^ ^Juroattrou®^ i -r-.^spepsia William H.Arnton.\u201c JUIOMSON \u201d FURNITURE.MOKH18 (I-uudon.Ku* .1 CARPET* AND CURTAIN* IN LapK.tlàoCAi*B.VELVET.Klo Kw M4 HOGAN Y AND < IT HICK FI'IIMTUKK.RARE GtilNA OKNAMKNTH PICTURES.HU.I.I4KD TARIF, PIANO.HI I, V EU AND K P WARE CHINA AND UI.AHM WARE II» \"r.ter of Usajaudu Dawsou.Jr .^'«^^ibB^suUi'ribei wili sellai ht* retideuor, '\u2022W I'M\u2019FI HTRhKr, «»> 1MI KMItl, Lilli VI till U, The whole of tho Furollurv, etc , iucludiu* DRAWING ROOM Morris (Umdoal Wlltnu Carpet.OurUms (Olugor Larek Tb >m.u Furniture in plu.*, Hquarr t'oaulorie, Gilt Frame Mirrors, OraaiurnU.B reeu Urate Gasallvrs.DINING ROOM.Mahogany Table, Hldrboard, Chairs, Glaa* Met.Fluwur Bervice, YYuetian Hock Glasses, breakfast, Tea amt Du,mi Con.-,-and IVt Cup*.Indesr-ot Gtass.lee Platra, Finger Rowls, lint Water Uru, Plated Met (5 ptrcssl, Salvera, tte Picture*.Curtains, Cutlery.UKOKPTIUN ROOM Morris Curtaiua, Brussels UarjisU.Droor* Outliers.BALL.Hall Lamp, Hat Mteud.HREAK FAST ROOM Mahusauy liultrt, Gasalier, Table, Chair*.HRDROOMR.II.W.M srlile Top Furniture.Kasv Chairs, Lounges, Carpets, Mvtlr.-a.es, Redd lug, Toilet Ware, eto.hlTTlNG UO O PIANOFORTR.R P.MANTEL M\u2018RRGKH.MTKR-MNG hll.VF.R FuRKS AND MPUG.NM, PARLOR VURN1TURK, At\u2019.We are instructed l-y the Executors ol RsUte late A'.M-v II KvMhxv, to M-ll, el the rexldemv.No.1ST GREEN AVENUE, juat above Ml.Calhrrtuoalnwt.OoW Hi Antoine, On till If \u2014 11 4 k MORNING.Lilli lust.The «hole of the fvirulllire and Klleota Very superior Hqtiare lianoforto, 7S cKnnwa, a* good a* new ;

the foot of St.Sul pice street, is to all appearance barely passable now, and bow bog it will last is n mystery this season, the ice being very thin in some place*, and there are open spaces of water both above and below the road.Tbe Laprairie road is now reported gone for good.A resident of Valois predicts that, to all ip pearanoe, there is considerable danger of a tbod this si ring that will exceed the past ones.He says the ice broke up three times in Lake St.Louis during the formation time and pawed down opposite the city, where most - f it became pocked in the narrow passage» on both sides of St.Helen's Island.Although the water ho f.tllen and risen again several times recently it is now from three to four feet higher than usual at this season of tbe year.Home people think this will lead to a flood, while others bxve a different opinion.ADVERTISEMENTS.PERSONAL.Nellie Ely, the famous globe circles, will lecture in Montreal on April htb under tbe auspices of tbe Press Club, Mr.Jesse Joseph when returning home on Saturday evening slipped and fall on the icy sidewalk, cutting bis head.The wound is n -t considered serious, and Mr.Joseph is expected to be out again in a day or two.The Rev.J.McIntyre, evangelist, has been preaching with much success in Arthur, Ont., aided by Mr.McOrae, who accompanies him a« singer.The people bad prayed to be guided in the choic- of an evangelist, and were greatly satisfied to get one who does not \u201c gloss the simple Gospel.\" Many became Christians, and many timid Christians were encouraged to greater consecration.Mr.Robert Harris.R.C.A., has just finished a second portrait of tbe Iste Dr.R.I*.Howard.The first, it will be remember d, was for the General Hospital, and a glimpse of one of the words appropriately appeared in the background.This time it is the medical faculty of McGill University which has subscribed fora portrait of its late De«o.Tbe likeness is capital.£JOLONIAL HOUSE.TAILORIMU IIKFABTMEST.HENRY MORGAN A CO.respectfully announce mat ibelr HlocM Is now com-plats, comprising all the Novelties ol me Henson In English, French, Hcoteh and Jrlth TWEED» AND HUlTINt*».French and English COATING», BEKUE8, OVERCOAT I NUB, THOUBEH1NU», Ac.Ac.FIT AND WORKMANSHIP GUARANTEED.Inspection invited.4$R!kKlt »T.JAMka AM* tl4 101114 s4|l AML.Alt ACES ENJOY THIS PARLOR GAME.It is INTEN8LY AMUSING and PERFECTLY HARMLESS.It trains tho EYE, f cultivates tho JUDGMENT,otronRlh-ens tho NERVES, and fills every VEIN with youthful blood.It gives overyono a better control of themselves.It establishes a PERFECT HARMONY between tho EYE, tho INTELLECT, tho MUSCLES and NERVES, and,___ promotes the highest typo of PHYSICAU^pJv AND MENTAL DEVELOPMENT.Of , Ptl S Frsnr*».El ;-UnS ami nao notue dame street.The \" NEW STANDARD\" TYPE WKITKU Uou cibibttiuu at 173S Metre Damest.Coll ami »e« it.__________ ASPINALL\u2019S enamel, for FxiotiDC New or Renovatins Old Furniture of every descrii'tiuu.Wicker Chairs, TalJee, Hot Water Csds, baths.Brackets, bird Cages, Buckets, Hcdstca.1*.etc - In fact, suy old eyesore can' be made intoanorns-uieiit by a child in a very short *|>acc of time, by api lyiiiK AHl'INAM.rt F.NAMKL, 1ÎU colors, iu tins.5o cents.Bold everywhere.REAL ESTATE NOTES.There was a large audience at Arnton's sale of Cot-\u2019 St.Antoine real estate yesterday, but bidding was slow The pikes obtained lor the lots sold are considered fair Mrs.J.R Irwin bought two lots ol S.^O feet each on Sherbrooke street, near Wood avsone, lor 47c a foot.On Matilda avenue Mrs.John Irwin bought two lots measuring 10,61X1 feet, at IS) cents.This property Is very far out.Fifty three cent! a foot wav oflered for 0,600 feet on the corner of Western and Green avenues, buta little more was asked.\t_ Ten cents was ollered for 90,001 feet on Bethune street, but the property was withdrawn.T«*o lots on Kim avenue, r.,400 feet, were bought by Mrs John Irwin at 37 cents.\t.\t.Two dollars and twenty cents a foot was oflerct for the property on Victoria square occupied l>y the \"Stei ' stables.Three dollars wan wanted A resldrnse on l.'nlverslty street was bid up to |b 760 and then with drawn.\t______________ COMMERCIAL.\u2022 Witness\" Orrirs.Tuesday, Marcb 11,1890 WHOLKSALK PRICES.Tbe British breodstuffs market* are steadier Besrbohm't cable advice* to-day are a* follows Cargoes, oB coast,wheat quiet ;
