FRIDAY, APRIL 4, 1884,
THAT ttannwax TO eastatuallnia.
A little plain language addressed to the
peeple of Gaderich, by an outsider, is like
shaking a reg flag before a bull, In both
cases "they get their mad up." For some
time past the newspapers of that place
have been agitating or additional 'rail-
way accommodation, to which no objec-
tion could be'raised if there were any run
cessity for it, bit beeause the NEW En&
has pricked their little bubble and let:the
wind out, welaye aroused their indigo&
don, as the following .extract from the
Signal will show • •
'The Clinton New Etta, published in"Mnd-
ville," throw dirt at the people of .Goderich
for daring to think of a competitive railway.
This abuse by the NEW ERA will only• teed
to joiti the people. of Gollerieh more strongly
together, eu far as the .proposed fleheille 1I3
conceived. The wrathful language comes
with a bail grace from thedlEw „ERA. Gode-
rich owes nothing to Chilton, while Clinton,
on the other hand, owes its present prespen.
ty, if not its being, to Goderich. When Olin -
ton was only a "four corners' Ooderich push.
ecl forward the Buffald de, Lake Huron Rail-
way wtthout any aid Irma the former place. ;
tioderich gave a bonus to that project, mut 1
when additional aid Was required, a number I
of Goderichites purchased stook in the ,cont
cern. Clinton never paid a niokle towald the
building of the 13. & L. 11. R. R., altholigh
that line was the Making of that place, and.
rather to the. detriment of Goderich. Gode.
rich was the principal factor in building the.
B. & L. H. through the Huron traot without
any assistance from Clintou, and is ..able to
build another line at any time and front • any
Place, if united action be talon by ifs people."
We really did not think our friend of
tthe Signal could deatend to stich.rot and
nonsense; but he is evidently able to do
so as well as many .others. The idea el
Clinton owing iti existence to Goderichis
too absurd for anything, and • the •Sigoal
states what is false in sayiilg that Clinton
-did not pay a nickle towards the buildiog
of the Buffalo & rake HuroninIt. Olio -
ton paid its share toward huilding-the
road, as well as every Other .municipality
of Huron, and:if we are not enietalten the
assistance given, by Goderibli , was after-
wards lifted bythe Gevefirrneet.

La the moon is just as likely to be built as
another line to Godealchablin as the peo-
ple have a "railway mania,' they pander
to the weakness without the•remetest idea
of any behefitnxising therefrom.
- Cioderich is not alone in its decadence;
nearly all the small harbors on. the 'shores
ef lakes Huron,. Erie and Ontario, are
gradually declining, in conseattence bf the
growing facilities and cheapness ef rail,
way traffic, and such places being oaly

'Taking the last two years as a basis, the

.while six years ago it Amounted only to a,

We believe there never was e period in
the history of Canada when the liberties
of the people and the security cd property
Steed in greater jeopardy than it does to-
day, fdr, notwithstanding the extent of the
franehise, and its use, the destructive Prin-
ciple:of bribery which has Men int greatly
practised during the past few years, has
not only frustrated the righteous labors
and intentions of the honest men of the
country, but it corrupting influence has
so debauched many of the thoughtless
and light -thinking people, that they give
way to the oft -repeated, but false assertion,
that all politicians are actuated by the
same selfieh principle -the posiression of
pelf and power. If that was the -Case, how
comes it that so many reforms were
brought about in Canada during the last
forty yearist-,---'
That security to property is greatlyjeo-
pardized by the relationship at present
existing between the Dominion govern-
ment and the C.P.R. Syndicate, is beyond
denial, for it is no longer a secret thitt a
large amount of tlae thirty million dollars
which has just been loaned to that Com-
pany, is being used. in the purchase of
eastern railways, wrilalially means that
individual members of the company are
becoming owners of the stock of these
roads, and thereby enriching themselves
at the. expense "of•the country.
So longas this country' has credit and
keeps borrowing, the thoughtless and ig-
norant will never realize that -they are
being robbed of their property, but as oer-
" tain as a bank suffers loss by a successful
huilgiary, 'et, certain does Canada sufrer
loss by voting rni11ion, to it cotnpany that
never will no; never ean repay it..,„Tbe
.pretense ofpushing fervrard the comple-
tion ofthe road in 'a elea-ter period, is only
a subterfuge to get bokt it the money be-
fore the'people fully realize the -fraud that
is being -practiced upon them by the collu-
Bien' of the government and the syndicate.
The people Will no doirbt wake up some
day, when taxetionalsceemes more opPres-
Sive; but; unfortunately,A nay take seine
time, ainsuch a large number are itpawitre
of the heavy taxation imposed upon them
by a tariff -they know not that when they
spend a.dollar in the Store, one quarter of
it or Mere goes toward paying the debts
