The Exeter Advocate, 1894-5-10, Page 4THE thab butter had brought from 24 to• 27
cents per pound in Montreal, less the
zeta-oo.iAte. freight and commission. The winter
SANDERS & OYER, Trop, stations alonelead yielded to the farms
rug community upwards of $100,000,,--
T.i (JRS'DAY, 1VIAY. lOtu, 1$94, and this sura toall appearances would
reach in 1894-95 over C$250,000. As
an illustration of the advantage to be
derived from dairying, Mr. Robertson
stated that the freight charges on a
tub of butter and a bushel of wheat
from Montreal to Liverpool were the
same, while the wheat bought 60 cents
and a tub of butter sold for from $12 to
$151 Arrangements have been made
for Prof, Robertson to visit Manitoba
and the N. W. in June, and confer with
the Western farmers in regard to dairy-
ing and mixed farming. It is also ar-
ranged that the Governor General, who
is to take up summer quarters near
Halifax, N. S., has consented to address
three farmers' ponies in the Maritine
Provinces -and with His Excellency's
well-known popularity, such visits will
go far towards making Canada better
known among the people aid farmers
of the Motherland.
THE NORTH—WEST SCHOOLS.
A most important statement was
made last week by the Premier, Sir
John Thompson, on Mr, Tarte's motion
ffor bringing down all the papers and
correspondence touching the Manitoba
school's, and the ordinances adopted by
the. Legislature of the N. W. Territories
egarding education, In the course of
n heur's speech the Premier demon-
ots'ated very clearly the constitutional
etandi taken by the government on this
vexed question which has caused so
inate irritation throughout the Doinin-
' on. A good deal of political capital
was sought to be made by the French
:members of the Opposition, inasmuch
tee they tried to make it appear that
the use of the French language in the
Horth•Wes.t Schools had been inter-
fered with. Strange to say, not one
aetitioner had made this a matter of
complaint; and those members of Par
Lament who represent the North-West
Territories, and who have a right to
;speak for their constituencies, asserted
that not only did no grievances exist
but that no complaint was ever heard
of until the matter was aired by cer-
tain members in the House of Com
kions, So far as Manitoba was concern-
ed, the government did not feel justi-
f:ed in recommending a disallowance
of the Act passed by the Proyince,—
bnut allowed the matter to be decided
y the courts of law. The first decision,
as to the competency of the Legislature
Atte-Manitoba to pass such an Act, was
adverse to the R. C. minority; and then
when, after petition by them, asking
for remedial legislation, the Cabinet
at Ottawa decided not to interfere but
to lay the whole case before the Su-
• reme Court of Canada, a majority of
the judges of that court decided ad-
versely to the minority; and now that
minority had decided to appeal to the
Privy Council in England. Thus the
Matter stands at present. The Premier
stated that the members of Cabinet
were entirely agreed,on the conclusions
arrived at by the government; and
farther he showed conclusively, to the
satisfaction of the leader of the Oppo
eition himself, that the Premier had
neyer promised the R. C. minority to
give them remedial legislation. Nu.
such promise had nes-er been made
either expressly or by implication. We
think that no unbiassed person will
now pretend that Sir John Thompson
acted in any manner unfairly or in a
way calculated to compromise the in
tirests of Protestantism. Curiously
nough Sir John has been attacked by
extremists on both sides -by his co -
religionists in Quebec who charge him
with sacrificing the interests of the
Catholic religion; and by hot headed
Protestants in Ontario who with less
reason than the people of Quebec found
fault with his administration, as if
favoring Roman Catholics. From all
that has transpired, we can hardly ex-
pect that any future Canadian Premier
will more ably or impartially discharge
the delicate and responsible duties that
devolve on the First Minister.
.PROF. .i OI3ERTSON AND THE
FARMERS.
Prof. Robertson, Dominion dairy
Commissioner, has announced through
the columns of the Toronto Empire a
plan by which the government and the
President of the C. P. R., Mr. Van
Horne, are to encourage a large dairy-
ing industry in Manitoba and the
North-West. The farmers in these
Western Countries have hitherto main-
mainly depended on grain "grossing.
but:with the sanction of the Depart-
ment of Agriculture the 0, P R. is
about to erect . creameries all along,
their line at convenient distances, with
a view to encourage our 'Western &eine
ere; to, go, extensively into:elairying arid'
mixed farming. It seems' .kom Prof
Robertson's report, that the Island of
•
Prince Edward has lately de'elopcd
cheese factories at the' .suggestion of
the dairy commissioner with good :ref
sults, Two years; ago the Dominion
government built one cheese factory
• there, and now the Island farmers have
this year no less than seventeen face
toeres in operation, So far as Ontario
•
Arnaers, are concerned, great advances
have been made within a short period
• both in cheese factories and creameries
Now through the advice of Prof.. Rob-
ertson;wt tef?1airyinff; station have

The Festive Shoddy Peddlers.
The chief of police at ,Goderich has
received •a communication from James
Davis, chief constable at Blyth, Huron
Co., asking him to be on the lookout for
a man named J. J. Bear, who is wanted
there on a charge of selling goods un-
der false pretences: `It appears, from
a circular which at companied the let-
ter, that Bear represented himself as
agent' for a lrm named. Shepard How.
and & Co., of England, which had
branch offices in Toronto and Winni-
peg. This firm is supposed to menu
facture woolen goods and sell direct to
consumers at less than half the cost
which retailers charge. He also car
ried for baits samples of to ts, sugars,
boots and shoes, ecc., for which he took
orders, and to every customer repre-
seated that their orders could at any
time be duplicated at the same rates:
When the goods turned up they were
invariably cheap shoddy articles that
would be dear at any Flee, and the
purchasers found they had no one to.
whom they could appeal, for while the
circulars gave the style of the firm they
did not state. Clearly where the
firm was located. Bear was acting in
con,juntiou with a resident in Stray•
ford and the two succeeded in victim.
izing a large number of residents of
Huron county, after which they both
vauished. The matter was reported
to the police, with the result that an
order was issued for the arrest of Bear.
Farmers and others have been repeat-
edly warned through the press to give
such characters a cool reception, but in
spite of all warnings they continue to
purchase from pedlars who grow rich
on the spoils of their victims. Farriers
will find it to their interest to patronize
city merchants who have their reputa-
tions to uphold and who may be de-
pended upon to give value to their
customers.

Hood's Sarsaparilla Cave Perfect
Health.
The following letter is from a well-known
merchant tailor of St. George, N. B.:
"C. L Hood & Co., Lowell, Mass.:
"Gentlemen—I am glad to say that Hood's
Sarsaparilla and Hood's Pills have done me 'a
great deal of good. I had a severe attack o1
the grip in the winter, and after getting over the
fever I did not seem to gather strength, and had
no ambition. Hood's Sarsaparill'., proved to be
just what I needed. The results were very
satisfactory, and I reconunend this medicine to
...all who are afflicted with rheumatism or other
afflictions caused by poison and poor blood. I
always keep Hood's Sarsaparilla in my house
and use it when I need a tonic. We also keep
Hood's Pills on hand and think highly of them."

Capt. iiflcOrannhnra Tolls How He

"About a year. ago I was taken with a severe
attack of sciatic rheumatism and was laid off
most of the summer. I went from here to St.
John, N. 13., in my packet schooner, and was so
helpless and in such suffering that 1 could not
get out of the cabin. The captain of another
schooner came on board to see me, and wanted
mo to get Hood's Sarsaparilla; he said it had
Sarsapar111a
cured him when he was so bad that his wife
bad to feed him. I s ant to Boston for two bot-
tles, which did for me all I had been told 1•Iood's
Sarsaparilla would do. I gained rapidly and
when I had taken the two bottles I was able to
work. A great many people here have taken
Hood's Sarsaparilla since it cured me, and all
speak highly of it." CAPT. S. MoGRANABAN.
