TION.
For years past the cry for annexe -
tan was the chief trump card in the
plaice] piny of oar leading Reformers.
New,
eforme rs-
Now, however, since it has been dem
rsni.atrated abat Canada can live with
mat the aid of continental union or re
•iprocity,, the old cry for annexation
las been virtually abandoned by the•.
Liberal leaders—and now it is the
Sara of America's senators to urge
1.at the United States he anucxod to
Caanada, Of course it is tha old story
of "wall; into my parlor," as said the
e Aider to the fly. It is very amusing
ea:listen to the reasons given by such
rosea as Senator Higgins, of Deleware,
tete. was invited to speak at Ogdens
nrg} N.Y., on occasi:,n of the County
.
lei; on the relations exist Ig between
n
aasrrsda and the United States. Sonat
'8r; Haggles had to admit :the superior
syantages enjoyed by the Canadian
'lamer over the farmers of the Eastern
aiates—on the ground of wore fertile
meii, lower wages, cheaper living, eta.,
—ate well as on other g•i ounds, such as
itie great waterways of Canada and er,-
:w•`wellments made by Caaacliria rail»
leap upon the internal carrying trade
;mss the neighboring ,States. But Mr
ins
.,igx, e)i,tcz.ded that as Canada
guild not safely reekoe on a contiii
ince of the present American policy of
a lower tariff—which he said was only
a "deceitful illusion" held out by' the
rece:.t Tariff act to betray Canadians
into the hope of freer access to Atneri_
eau markets—the true•remedy for the
people of both countries was to be
formed in contineutal utity. From the
whole tenor of Senator Higgins' re-
marks it is eyidelrt that our ueeighbors,
feel sore at the idea 'of Canadian' pro-
gress, considering our proved ability
to be independent of the American
market, and the advantages secured
to us by the Behring Sea tleaty, as
well as the superior facilities enjoyed
by Canada as being the nearest route
between Britain and the Australian
markets, All this has operated in pro-
ducing the conviction ou the minds of
American politicians that Canada is a
standing menace to their national
prosperity—as much so as the South
was to themselves before the war—
which cost them eight million dollars
and half a million lives, besides the
heavy drain upon them ever since for
pensions to:the two millions of people
that were wounded during the four
years' war. The probability of a war
between us and our neighbors is quite
beyond the region of surmise or spec-
ulation, bedause whatever friction may
be engendered in future between the
two nations on the ground of commer•
cial rivalry, such is the prevailing
sentiment on the part of both English
speaking peoples in regard to the pro-
priety of settling all questions of differ-
ence by peaceful arbitration that Sen-
ator Higgins' concealed threat of war
need give us no concern whatever.
THE BARON MARTYRS.
The buncombe threat of the Massy -
Harris company to remove themselves
to the United States has given the Grit
press of Canada a chance to come out
hi a new role. It has been the habit of
the Grit press to say that manufac-
turers—the Massey -Harris company in-
cluded—were robbers protected by law
iu their assaults upon the pockets of
the consumers. They have been called
"red parlor patriots," "pap -suckers,"
thieves," "pampered barons," and all'
manner of names,and it has been charg •
ed that the national policy took money
out of the poor consumer's •pocket to
make these bad people rich. Now how-
ever, all that has been changed. The
Massey Harris company is a company of
martyrs, who have suffered terribly at
the hands of the Tory government,
['hey have been conducting their ex
teurive busiuess at a Ioss; they have
been struggling against frightful ob•
structions; they have been, keeping
their works going simply tur the pur-
pose of obliging their many customers,
and now, feeling that they can no lon
ger maintain the unequal struggle
they propose to abandon this tariff -rid-
den country to its fate and seek wealth
in a country where the tariff is higher!
The Grit heart bleeds when the Grit
head ponders upon the woes of the un
fortunate N. P. -ridden Canadian man-
ufacturer, and Grit tears are being
shed in oceans over the particular woes
of the Massey -Harris company, It is
all very melancholy.
.Bidduiph,
Harvest Thanksgiving Services were
held and duly appreciated last Sunday
in St. Patrick's church. A largrs gath-
ering of members and strangers as-
sembled at 11 a m., canon the Rev. J.
W. Hodgins, of Seaforth, preached an
impressive discourse snitable to the oc-
casion. The young people of St. Pat-
rick's church bad displayed great taste
in their church decoration, and the of-
fertory presented was moss, liberal.
Rev. Mr, Steele, who had exchanged
for the day with Rev. Mr. Hodgins, was
delighted with the reception accorded
co him by the church members in Sea
forth, and was highly complimented for
his excellent discourse.

and with other members of the family
emigrated to Canada in 1882. He was
a tanner by trade, and for some time
iu business at Guelph and Paris. In

on which he died, and has lived there
ever since, owning it for some time be
fore he took possession of it. He took
an active interest in public affairs, be
ing a staunch Liberal, and unusually
well informed, not alone in current af•
fairs, but in matters of history and lit-
erature, and was for several years a
member of the township council. He
was a Baptist, enjoyed the good will
and esteem of all who knew him, was
hospitable and large hearted—a good
neighbor and citizen. Ho leaves a
wife, three sons and one daughter, the
latter now married and living in But
alo. The funeral takes place to day
at 2.80 p.m,to Turner's cemetery.—

Goderich township; from which sectian
the storm approached town, bridges
were washed out on the 1st, 4th and 6th

Huron road were v e destroy
gal; in places
where the culverts were at least
four feet lower than the road the rush
of water was so great as to flood the
roadway. A dam on tire farm of Mr. D.
Cox was washed away. The wind un•
roofed the barn of Mr. John Holmes,
just west of town; it then struck and
damaged the houses of Mr. Hale, Rat -
ten bury St.; Miss Mountcastle and Mrs.
Taylor on Spencer St,. It then lifted
three quarters of the roof offForrester's
fax mill, carried it accross the road-
way and lodged it in a field about 50
feet distant. McTaegarts windmill
was then wrecked; striking two chim-
neys on' the rear of Mrs, Manning's
house, both were demolished, the raft
ers being cracked; a stable belonging
to Mr. Hugh McDonald was unroofed,
the top being carried out into the road:.
trees twelve inches in diameter were
uprooted bodily or snapped like pipe -
stems; no further damage was done
until the cyclone reached ,rrbotit 5 miles
into Hullc'tt, when it uprooted the
barns of Messrs, Albert and 'Robert
Brown. The wind appeared to pass in
a streak through the northern end of
the town, for no wind of any account
