FIGHTING AlC IATLEY.
The McKinley bill is pretty general-
ly regarded in Europe as a challenge
by the United States thrown out to
other uat'ions, and there is a strong dis-
position in some quarters to meet it by
retaliatory acts This feeliog is
strongest, o£ course, in protected coun-
tries; but even in Free Trade England
it finds some advocates. There has not
been any attempt at a movement in
favor of a return to nroteetiye duties;'
but several propositions have ben
Made looking to the development of
nide between Great Britain and her
colonies, especially in those classes of
goods she has been accustomed to take
largely from the United States. In the
last number of the FouTXID-HTLV RE-
VIEW, 'AICSSrS
la-slsw,'AICbS1S A. Egmont Hake and 0
W. Wesslan make the following pro-
posals which they third: would have
the effect of defeating the object of the
31eKinley bill:
1. A duty to be itnposed on all wheat
,Porn, dairy produce, beef and other ar
boles of food imported from the United
States.
2. The revenue collected from such
duties to be used as a Retaliation Fund,
stud not to be absorbed in the general
revenue of the country.
3 An import bounty to be 'paid out
of this Retaliation Fundon all similiar
food stuffs imported from British. colon.
ies, or from any country receiving
British goods free of duty. Higher
bounties to bo paid on the products of
Free Trade colonies than protected col-
onies.
4 The bounty to be so ealculated.that.
its aggregate amount shall correspond
with the agregate'of the duty levied.
a No duty to be placed on any food
stuns the importation of which from the
British colonies cannot be encouraged.
i.; The duties to be abolished—and,
consequently, the bounties also—when
the United States admit goods as freely
as Great Britain now admits Americen
goods.
The authors of this scheme argue
that it cannot cause an increase in the
price of;the articles ou which the duty
is charged, because similar articles
would be imported from the colonies
duty free, which would regulate the
price in the English market; and that
those colonies and . other countries'
which would thus be favorably treated,;
-would become larger customers of
Great Britain and would buy more
,, freely her manufactured goods. By
this means Great Britain would be en-.
abled-to help her own colonies, at the
expense of the United States producers,
This scheme looks feasible, and encour-
aging from a Canadian stand -point;
Taut it will not do to build much hope
on the probability of its being carried
mut. It is to be feared that Great Brit-
ain. is Still too firmly wedded to her,
Free Trade icloi,to admit of any scheme
of taxation which would have the
PP
slightest a earanee of a return to a
a
protective tariff,or evens discriinina-
tory tariff which would bear any re-
semblance to protection,most especially
in breadstuffs or any other articles of
food. It must always be remembered
that England does not produce, nearly
enough food to feed her population,
and,consequently the imposition of any
duties, no matter how sxilfuily arrang-
trissmight have the effect increasing
the cast of the uedessaries of life which
is, something any English Government
Would ,be exceedingly easeful to avoid
doing. It would not be well, therefore,
for Canadians to derive any comfort
from proposals to tax food stuffs in
Great Britain, for such proposals are
not likely to be entertained. They
xnuust depend wholly on tho qutility of
the ;oods'produced to recommend them.,
The best grains, meats and dairy pro-
ducts will fetch the best prices in the
English narket, find it is on that our
Sarrners and traders must place their
seliance, and not on an; hope of a
eliaange in Great Britain's fiscal policy,
not much probability of ° the amend
went passing, as the vote in the citieswill, it is expected, bo overwhelmingly
against it; bit it will be satisfactory to
have a vote polled, so as to ascertian
what the real strength of the prohibia
tion sentiment in the State is, Should

both of the great parties will adopt pro-
hibition in the party platform for next
general election, and should the vote
prove light and inconsiderable, as is.

The Mitchell Advocate is a nen spa:p,
or published hi a neighboring town,

always witha great deal of force. Its
warlike Editor never Wings his game;
he always blows it to atones. The slain

chamber of horrors, if large enough.
pieces could be 'found. But its foes are
always annihillated. Tho Advocate is
now at Work on a Mitchell doctor and,
soon, the prospects are, that the ihysie-
ian will be extinguished. It :would be
better; we think, if our ',contemporary
would only use a shotgun, and not a
cannon, just kill, and not obliterate,
save something if Only the skeleton, to
hang up in,the editorial sanctum, and
warm future Offenders not to so trans
gress. But we do not.wish to interfere
between our:neihbor and his oppon-'
ent and cite the doctors ease as an in-
stance of the power, with which the
Mitchell Advocate fights. ' But the
strong feeling that makes a man feel,
in fighting for the cause .of light, is
out of place in choosing what is right.
The impulse of the Prophet Samuel;
which was righteous indignation. when
he slew Agag; would he out of place in
a jury box. Therefore we fear our
namesake from. Mitchell is advocating
inurder,when in impulsive indignation,
he writes thus of tbe fiendish crime
near Cumberland, Ontario, a few days
famommseurarauerawagruorretia
ago.
"The brutality of tbe Gleed is simply
appalling. It shuts out the thought of
mercy for the devilish perpetrator, if
evidence can be found to fix the guilt
upon him, and raises in the Heart a
sympathetic feeling for therough,swiIt
justice that bides not the delay of
courts when so foul a wrong against
humanity is to be avenged."
No! we have no sympathetic feeling'
for murder, rough and swift or smooth
and slow. It is justice, for the law to
execute a criminal, it is murder for a
community toput an accused man to
death. The Township of Biddulph wit-
nessed some "rough swift justice" a few
years ago, that British law,called by an-
other ridnie. The strange thing about
this article is, that in the same issue of
the same paper, is an item of news from
the Sarnia Sun, about a murder in
New York, of a young man, "well con
ducted and "well lilted" by rough swift
justice, for which, in a moment of im-
pulse, our contemporary and namesake
has a sympathetic feeling. Here it is,
ty,"\Vtn. Joslyn lived: in Mt. 'Clement,
Mich., and was well known to Sarnians
who take an interest in matters of the
turf. On May 24th last he was here
with Toledo Girl. He was geneially
well liked. On Monday night. last
while on a visit to friends in. Mt. Mor-
ris, N. y., he was sec upon by a mob
and strangled to death: The snob phis
took him for another party and the
mistake was not discovered until Jos-
lyn had been killed, Several of the
nfob were arrested.
Joslyn is said by those here who
knew him to have always well conduct-
ed himself and the news of the terrible
mistake made sent a thrill of sorrow
through them."
