The management of the Toronto Industrial Exhibition are always open for improvements, and haya in the past shown rare tact and judgement in conducting the business in con- nection with that shox^ which is now the greatest annual attraction in the Dominion. A meeting of representatives of the Toronto daily pap6rs was held in the rooms of the Dominion and Industrial Exhibition last week to consider the question of the erection of a building for the accommodation of the press on the Exhibition grounds. The E xhib- itiou Committee considered such a building a desirable thing and invited those most interested to suggest what would be required. A building, some 30 X 75 feet, to include seperated, rooms for the Toronto dailies a large room with desks for visiting journalists a restaurant, lavatory and other essentals was recommended, and the Exhibition architect will be instructed to design a building which will meet these requirements. Mr. H. J, Hill, the manager and Secretary, also an- nounced tkat the Exhibition Committee purposed giving a dinner to the press on September 13. „ â€" ^Thegoverament was sustained by a • ^T_ -« AtX XU. 1J'a«i»»lM majority of 49 on the Manitoba dissalowance vote last week. â€"Edward Hanlan was beaten by Jake Craadaor, formerly of Canada bnt- now of St. Louie, at Chicago last Monday. The race was a faatd one and the contest exciting, and was for $5,000 a side and for the cham- pionship of Amenca. " The Bricklayers of Toronto threat ento go on strike in order to secure an advance of half a cent per hour in their wages, oi five cents per day of ten hours. If the strike lasts a week, and they then secure their terms, they will have to work over a year and a quarter before they will have made up for the time lost in striking. The Knights of Labor deprecate strikes, and declare they Bhould only be a last resort to secure a greater benefit â€" Lord Landsdowne's reception on his return to Ottawa was a most bril- liant and successful affair, far eclipsing the expectations of those who made the arrangements. Over ten thousand people were assembled in Cartier square, where the formal reception ceremonies took place. His Excellency also received an euthsiastic greeting at Perth on his way to the Capital, being met at the station by a gather- ing of five thousand people and pre- sented with an address of weleo me. m Wi t IfiFirlanf s HOT WEATHBB PBICES. -•-« i^ook: -:- ioTV]V this colunm and see the array of desirable Roods to be ofiFered this month at prices which we think were never before quoted for such good goods. skip an item, you may find something of great importance to you in this un- precedented list of Honest Bargains. fe,ea,d all It -will pay Hat's!

This question of Commercial Union or Reciprocity, between Canada and the United States is one which will affect in a greater or less extent every citizen of our Dominion, and we are not surprised to see it occupy a pro- minent place in all our daily and other leading papers. Farmers' In- stitutes are holding meetings in various parts of the provinces discuss the pros and cons of the question and very pro- perly to.
