According to the public accounts of the dominion during 1887-88 the amount realized in lines, .in the sale of conscated goods, and in other special ways, was $98,360, and the amount expended in the same connec~ itioii $9.'l,li69. In Ontario and in New Bruns- wick the expenditure exceeded the revenue by several thousand dollars. so that the rewards given for.special service appear t) have been in excess 0 the advantages so- eured. But the expense to the country of an etlicient prevention of undervaluation," says the Mail, counts for little. Merchants are entitled to protection from customs frauds which place them at a, disadvantage when competing for business, and the coun try must plevent it no matter what the cost involved may be. That is very true. It is a point indisputable. The only mat- ter over which there can be any discus sion is the manner of rewarding spe cial agents. These should be paid as the special agents of the customs` olliccrs of the. l'nited .\';atee are paid, salary, large or small, as the importance of their assignment calls for. In the exercise of this regular duty they can show as much vigilance as the nature of any case calls for. and if they close up a man's business because of his ir~ regular dealings with the customs` depart- ment they will not be open to the charge of being very meddleeolne for personal ends. The special agents in Montreal last year were particularly otlensive. In the Ayer patent medicine case they blundered so shockingly as to force the government to think seriously of a change in the detective l'1|`lI\I\lII\lI-IyI|-uv - u -`rm: Hnlfxen Wmo le "hushed every evan- lngru King Strec Kingston.

I` he interview which the work- ingmen had with the premier during his recent visit to Toronto was condufed llndel` circumstances which suggested a clearness of motive on one `hand and s clearnell of conception on the other. Sir John was asked (1) to urge the extension of the franchise to every Young man of legal age. *0 in 'h" `adopt manhood surage ; (2) to abolish the $200 required from a pa`rliamentnry candi~ date, and so make it easier for the mechanic and artisan to gratify his ambition in seek- ing s place in public life; and (3) to see that the indiscriminate immigration that the government has assisted in past years. to the manifest injury of the working classes-of Canada, is s uyn,marily put an end to. Sir John spoke diplomatically, as usual, and with the usual reserve, but he was under- stood to be in sympathy with the aims of the workingmen, and to be inclined to l use` his inuence in the attainment of them. In , fact he. was so plain-spoken in regard to all the poi ts raised that the substance of the iutervie was given to the press, and, so far as the immigration question was concern ed. sent oil to England. It startled Sir Charles Tapper. and he cabled to Ottawa for information, regarding the statement as a monstrous absurdity." 'lhen followed, in a ministerial print, a semi ollicial statement of the position of Sir John Macdonald. It was to the effect that the premier only promised some amendment _to the franchise act, malt ing it more workable : that the franchise would not be extended : that Sir John is in favour of requiring -1 deposit of $200 from every candidate for the house of commons ; that with respect to foreign labourers com ing into Canada a restrictive measure could not apply to British subjects, and the immi ' gration from foreign countries is very small. And these are all the points suggested by the workingmen. Nothing has been accom- plished or can be accomplished. Ministers of the crown pose as the champions of the" toilcr, talk sympathetically at public ban- quets, and send out political scouts to en` quire into the condition of the labouring classes, and ascertain what can be done for the amelioration of it. And the promised legislation is one of the things to be hop:-d for and not seen. It is one thing to speak of what can be done and what should be done, and another thing to bring about re- sults. The w`orkingmen are getting too cute for the politicians. They are becoming more exacting than they were. They not only ask for certain reforms. but see to it that what they are pnuileed is not forgotten. They know how dependant political parties are upon their support, they know what they can do if they are deceived, and they are giving the "statesmen" occasion for seri- ous thought. The delegates who visited Sir John Mscdonsld the other day know what he promised them. some of them are mem- bers of the legislative committee, and he will hear from them during the ensuing session.
