CATTLE WITH TUBERCULOSIS. Mt. Forest Representative: Dr. Tan - ger was lately called to examine and. treat a sick (grade mild)) COSY, belong- ing to John Dillon,of Arthur. After an igcatuination the cow was pronounced telherculosed (orconsumptive). The cow was destroyed and the postmortem re- vealed the left lung a mass of blood, tubercules and pus; the right lung not So badly affected, was discovered. to be filled with diseased spots. This cow Las been stabled along with her mate which the doctor purposes examining svith tuberculin whieh has been ordered for the purpose. This dangerous dis- lease is getting amongst our cattle, sev- tral head about Mt. Forest having al- ready become diseased and were des- troyed. Tuberculosis in cattle is com- municable to mankind and according to the best authorities this disease causes a big percentage of harnan mortality. The principal datiger of contagion consists in a person being in contact, Caring for and attending diseased ani- imals, eating tuberculous meat, and drinking the milk of tuberculous rows. There are now two cases at Seaforth where a child is badly affected and the mother is sloe* dying, both being diseased with tuberculosis, having used the milk from a cow which had to be destroyed ou account of this danger- -VIM disease. AU persons letving tattle which present the following Aymptoms should not sell nor feed longer, but attend to their exatninat- -ion as early as possible. Beast dull, .Staring coat, pulse quick and feeble, temperature high respirations quick- ened, yellowish tinge of skin. NOTES AND COMMENTS. Mr. Laurier promised us most faith- fully that his regitne would be charac- Aerized by economy. His first official act convinces us that we are going to 'Lave as much economy as free trade. Instead of reducing the 'number ofhlin- isters, the two controllers are to be imade Ministers and their salaries in - Creased from $5,000 to 7,000. How can •the Premier. pledged to economy, de- fend this his first official act? x The advent of Laurier to power enakes six Premiers that Canada has tad in Bove years, viz: Sir John Macdonald 1891 Sir John Abbott 1891 Sir John Thompson 1892 Sir MackenzieBowell 1891 Sir.Plearleeiinner 1896 Vt"Ilfeeci 14aurier 1e96 IL. record is c'ertainly' a remarkable �110 more especially as from the 'Of confederation in 1857 un.t..11. the death Of Sir John Ailjaittinaid in June 1891, &period of 24 years, the post had been decupied by only two men -Sir John, and Hon. Alexander Mackeuzie. The Ministry of ▪ Sir ▪ Charles Tupper bas paid the readiest deference to the popular will on record since Confedera- tion. It resigned on July 8 just two weeks and one day after his defeat at the polls. The Mackenzie Government on the other hand hung on to ante from Sept. 17, 1878, until 16th Octo- ber, or 30 days after the people had served notice of eviction. Sir Charles left office in exactly half the time that it took Mr. Mackenzie, although the /majority recorded against Mr. blacken - vie was twice that against Sir Charles. As usual the ccmparison is in favor of the Conservatives. Now let's see Mr. Laurier bring on those halcyon days that he prophesied would follow Lib- eral rule. . x + x No trueCanadian, he he Conservative' or Liberal, should exultover the down- fall of Sir Charles Tupper. It has to 'Le confessed his administration has Leen short and inglorious, butuotwith- standing Canada owes much to Sir Charles Tupper. Though he mey have lhad bis faults, and may- yet be liable to -err, he has rendered great eseistance iri plactingCanada, in the proud position she occupies to -day es an in tegralparts of the Empire to which we all take pride in acknowledging allegiance. In- steadof exulting over his fall, reaaxd is el ue that an otherwise useful ° life aud brilliant career should he clouded by defeat at an age well nigh verging On fone score, years. His remeining years are in the nature of things, too few to retrieve what he has lost. Were Ie yet in the prime of life the future Knight have to record a renewal ofpub- lic confidence and triumph ever his vie- . tors. There is no denying the fact that Valli/et Sir Charles Tupper and Sir L eonard Tilley (at that tittle plain Dr. leiPpee and Mr. Tilley), Nova Scotia and New Brunswick could not bave been confederated in 1867 with Canada. Ever. since /leder the guiding hand of Sir Johe Macdonald be has rehdered valued and powerful assistance in the development of the coantry. Cana- dians owe much to Sir Charles Tupper. Which debt, should not be forgotten becauets of his defeatin the declieing yeavs of his life.

Six judges have given their judgment on the question. Three of them -Judge Dougall, Toronto; Masson of Godericb; and Lacourse, of Berlin - say such ballots should be counted. Judges Pagnuelo, ofMontreal; Deacon, of Renfrew; and Elliott, of London; hold, they should not be counted. The inventor of the ballot himself in an interview said: "Now if you are going to count ballots where the mark was not placed in the disc, you naturally make the thing the same as the old- time slips and there is no use in it. My intention was, and has been all •alongthat all those ballots marked in the right space should be counted.” It seems quite clear that the decision of Judge McDougall and those of his colleagues who agree with him give the voter more license than was in- tended, But the all-important thing is to have decisions uniform all over Canada. When Mr. Mackenzie went out of office he made eleven appointments, nearly all of a very important kind, in- eludinga Supreme Court judge, twe pulsate judges, two minor judges, Deputy Minister, a collector of cus- toms, and several others, with Lord Dufferin's approbation. One of thee° appointments was arranged for at the last moment by the superentniatioti of an officer who Was in perfect health and vigor, and the whole batch was ap- pointed after the adverse vote of the 17th Sept. The facts are not all before the public yet, hut it appears:as if Lord Aberdeen in his sympathy with the Liberal party has undertaken to dis- own Lord Dufferia's precedent, and has reused endorsation to the few comparatively unimportant .appoint- ments that Sir Charles Tupper had re- commended before quitting office. No Conservative would kick at a refusal to allow wholesale appointments by a, disappearing Ministry, but there ought to be fair play at least: which seems to have been de t ied by Lord Aberdeen. x Notwithstanding the earnest opposi- tion of the Archbishop of Canterbury, a bill permitting marriage with a de- ceased wife's sister recently passed a second reading in the House of - Lords by a majority of 213. Once before in the same chamber a bill of the kind was read a second time, hot the Bishops rallied and defeated it when it came up for a third. reading. This time, however, the nutjority in its favor is larger than it was on the fortner occa- sion, and as it is still warmly support- ed by the royal family it seems likely to secure the final approval of the upper House. The Ohtmeh of England stands almost alone in its inflexible opposition t� marriage with a deceased wife's sister. Nominally,indeed, the Church. of Rome prohibits suele unions but it sometimesgrants dispensations for them. Marriages of the kind are perruitted in nearly every State on the continent of Europe; they have been legal for sixty years in France, and have long proved unobjectionable in Germany and Seandinavia. They are valid in every State on the continent of South Atnerica, as well as through- out the United States and Canada. There is an even stronger argument in their favor from the view -point of a British statesman. It is manifestly desirable that there should be uni- formity in the marriage laws of &lithe British dominions. - response the yeriees inqniries as to Meaning offree silver"16 to 1," the Philadelphia Ledger prints tit e explana- tion: "It means in practise that six- teen ounces of silver should be held as worth as much as one ounce of gold. One ounee of gold, American coin standard of fineness -that is, 900 parts of pure gold to 100 of alloy -with coin in gold dollars $18.60. Sixteen ounces of silver, Ameriean coin stan- dard of fineness -that is 900 parte of pure silver to 100 of alloy, at the rate of 412 1-2 grains to the dollar (the weielat of the present standard silver dollar) -will coin $18.60 in silver dol- lars. These sixteen ounces of silver can he bought in the markets of the world to -day for $9.94. There would therefore' he a profit of $8,66 on an in- vestmentof 9.91, being about 87 per Cent, if a holder Of silver could take it to the mint and coin it without charge into silverdollars. The advocates of free coinage favor a law that will allow any holder of silver bullion -or, infect, silver of any kind (as the latter eau readily he melted into bars) -to have the same, right to take the same to any mint of the United States and convert it into silver coin free of charge. It is easy to are that if this were done it would not be long, with free coinage, before the country would be flooded with silver coins, and the very large profit to the owners of silver mines would. quickly start to work mines at present idle, to the immense advantage of the mine owners."
