Last year, owing to the enormous crop, apples were "dirt cheap," but some dealers had faith in a late demand, and they kept a con-. siderable quantity in cold storage. These apples are now being marketed. Five dollars per barrel has been paid for spies and russets. For ten barrel lots $4.50 has been refused. Cold stor- age promises to supply good fruit all the year round for those willing to pay <ti fairprice for it. The franchise bili the which t a . Go c v ernznent claimed was so necessary and important that they introduced it early in the session and insisted that it must go through at once, has now been postponed till next session. The plebiscite bill also goes over, notwith- standing Mr. Laurier's assurance to the temperance people that it would be dealt with promptly when he came into power. The "strongest" Govern- ment Canada ever saw seems to have the same difficulty in dealing with troublesome questions as ordin- ary cabinets of common people --Tories for instance. x t x Last week nine carloads of stocker cattle were shipped by way of Port Huron from Canada to the Western States. They will be fed there by the enterprising farmers and shipped to GreatkBritain. Why should our agri- culturists not profitably feed these ani- mals themselves, and market them in the motherland ? Once the excuse was that there was no cheap feed, and that was why thousands of half -fed animals were sent to the old country or to the States. Now, with corn tax free, the feeding conditions are as advantageous in Canada as in the United States, and it seems a shortsighted policy to lose the stoney -snaking agencies resulting from selling the animal to be fed in a foreign country, and afterwardssent to the old country to be sold in com- petition with our exports of meat, To light a six -roomed house for $1 a month by means of an electric mix- ture, which can be sold around the streets in rubber pails as a milkman delivers milk, is what John F. Magner, a deputy sheriff of Mill Valley. Cal., says he can do. Magner is an elec- trician, and two years ago, while try- ing to find a method of running an electric elevator by a battery instead of a motor, the idea came to him to get an arc light out of a battery. He experimented, and two xnonths ago, produced the light. Then, trying to increase t•he ljeat by increasing the solntiniu„Ke lost it, onlyto find it later. He used four cells, producing about five volts each. In each cell are two poles of carbon and zinc. Other bat- teries differ in this respect by having but one pole to each cell. The results, however, are producedby the solution, which, of course, is secret. If Mr. Magner can make. good his promise, he will easily make his fortune in a short time. It will be acomical thing to have an electric light delivered in the same basket as the groceries 1 + - + Canadians interested in politics are beginning to understand that a: il?any of the vices which they de - the ploare.l in the days of Conservative sup- e,, premac'vere not peculiarly name - se a. leristic of theConservative party.

Toronto a Lib. ° au TIIE DIAMOND JUBILEE. The sixtieth anniversary of Rex I Majesty's. coronation will be celebrat- ed on Tuesday, the 22nd inst., all oyer the British domains, by a Dia- mond Jubilee, which on the whole will surpass all former demonstrations of rejoicing, whether in ancient or modern times. It will be the grand- est display of a people's love and homage ever renderedto a sovereign. Beside it, the festivities connected with the coronation of the Czar of Rus- sia will appear unreal and little. In magnitude, splendor and en- thusiasm, it will be beyond compari- son with anything of its kind, as the joint undertaking of all parts of the greatest Empire on earth ought to be. It will be not one jubilee, bnt a mul- titude of jubilees, scattered around the world, in all countries under the British flag. London, of course, will be the great centre of the celebratiou. The greatest host of people ever as- sembled in one city will gather there to attend the ceremonies. Shiploads of passengers have already gone for- ward from all the outlying parts of the Empire. The head of the government of every British colony or - depend- ency is expected to be present. All the powers of the civilized world will send representatives, who will attend instate. A military coutingent will be sent from each of the four colo- nies. The naval and military demon- stration will be on the sane scale as the gathering. The ;naval show will certainly be a stupendous one. All the countries that have navies will aim to appear at the best advantage. and will send the finest ship they have, well officered and manned.. The United States is sending Rear - Admiral Miller on the Brooklyn, with. the best staff he can select. When all the navies of the world are represent- ed by the best vessels and iuen in their service. these, along with the unap- proachable navy of Britain, will make an unequalled sea spectacle. The military parade and the naval demon- strations, are the great parts of the programme. Premier Laurier left last week for London, as the official representative of the Dominion. It is gratifying to know that the Do- minion will have a. fine body of men in the colonial contingent. In countless cities and towns, in many climes and ;unong uumerous races, there will be jubilee proceed- ings, as well as in London. Demon- strations, grand musical services, illu- minations, the opening and dedicat- ing of public buildings, parks, pleas- ure -grounds, unveiling of monuments and fonutains, etc., will be witness- ed by crowds of Her Majesty's subjects, all over her vast Empire on the same day; and in their manner of observing the day many of these towns and cities will aim to perpetu- ate the memory, not only of the sovereign, but of the chief virtues of her character, Victoria Jubilee local institutions will be established which in future years will be a blessing to the poor and sick. Thus the jubilee will be no vain show. It will in many places be the inauguration of some lasting work of mercy and goodness, which is the mode of commemorat- ing the Queens reign most gratifying to the Queen herself. Of such works no doubt many will be started. in Canada on the 22nd inst. -re eaas- CHEAP CORN NOW ON- THE MARKET. • • The other day Mr. W.W. Ogilvie, of Montreal, imported 05,000 bushels of American corn from Chicago. This is the first lot of American corn for grind - in g. purposes that bas been received hi that city for some years past. The duty was paid and, as corn is selling at a low figure in Chicago, this importation will have a tendency to reduce the cost of food stuffs, such as oats, peas and barley. Hereafter the farmers of Can- ada may look forward to lower prices in these products. There is little or no profitto the farmer in selling oats at the price which now prevails. He can ill afford to take t :,ree or four cents a bushel less in order to meet the compe- tition of the corn grown by the farm- ers,, of the Western States. Canadian weather has come to this that if a day passes without a rain- storm the climate is suffused with flatttery and called all the pretty names whieh can originate in the gratitude of a.water-wearied country. + x - Some eminent Ontario journals ap- pear to dislike William J. Bryan, and so they ought, since his visit to Can- ada encouraged them to reveal a ,post copious ignorance of the American political conditions which they dis- cussed. ALWAYS FELT Tann,.

The Conservative mass meeting in ' would not be for want of a proper The United States Senate has re- the Skating Rink here Saturday after- and honest motive. Going on, Mr. Whitney pointed out .how thatood man, Sir Oliver Mowat, had ridden both the saloon and temperance horses. While making promises to the temperance people he had his hand in the pockets of the license holders -and it seldom came out empty. The re- cent License Act amendments brought down by the Government were de- nounced as silly and absurd. He did not think too much was expended on agriculture, but the money should be more judiciously expended. Mr. Whit- ney showed how Mr. Hardy had eaten his own opinions in reference to the appointment of Junior County Judges when his friends came into power at Ottawa, Mr. Hardy appeared anxi- ous to have as many offices as pos- sible to fill. Critizing this act fur- ther, Mr. Whitney said the wondered at the cool audacity and colossal cheek of the Premier of Ontario. He referred at some length to the Gov- ernment's mining policy, and de- nounced the Engledue steal. Conclud- ing, Mr. Whitney said the Govern- ment press stated, there was no abil- ity in the Opposition, but he said that man for man, from the Premier down, the Opposition were their equals in point of ability and intelligence. (Cheers.) These same papers told us that the members of the Government were the Sons of Anak intellectually but there were men on the Govern- ment's own side of the House who were wiser than them when they were asleep. (Applause.) Having regard for the public good, he asked the people to give him and his col- leagues their confidence. (Prolonged applause.) Mr. Thomas Magwood, M. P. P. for North Perth was,pleased to meet with the good people ot Exeter in their own fair town. At the last elections held in this county one of the principal arguments brought to bear was that the party in power had held office for twenty years, aud consequently it should be turned out. The same argu- ment applied to the" present Ontario administration. They had been in power for the last twenty-five years, during which they had by unfair paeans endeavored to permanently en- trench themselves. The system of the centralization of power as practiced at Toronto was vigorously denounced. The rights of the municipalities bad been so curtailed in the appointment of officials until now they had the power to appoint few others than the pound -keepers. At the last session the Government created a new legis- lative body in each county, and the excuse given was that it would be much cheaper. Mr. Magwood went into details to show that instead of this legislation saving money to the counties it would mean a largely in- creased expenditure. All the way through the appointees of the Gov- ernment in every locality could be seen actively engaged at election time, if at no other. The misman- agement of the Agricultural College at 1 criticized, was ably critic zed, as well as the general agricultural policy of the Government, and the changes were pointedly named. The wasteful and incompetent mining and timber policies were also criticized, and Mr. Magwood was frequently applauded. Mr. Eilber, the candidate, was the last speaker. He was sure the people of South Huron were glad to wel- come Mr. Whitney, and asked them to support the leader by electing him (Mr. Eilber). He briefly referred to his municipal record as Reeve of the township of Stephen, and how he had succeeded in wiping out the debt there left by tbe lion. Thomas Green- way, whom he succeeded as Reeve The Government had not only take away the power to appoint officio but were taking the people's mon by finding offices for many unnec sary officials.

Fraser requested his 7 -year- old daughter to bring bin.) an article from a pocket of his coat upstairs, and found the child lying on the floor. It appears the weapon attracted the child's attention, and while toying with it, the revolver was discharged into her body. The girl's recovery is doubtful. Rev. Dr. Wild, formerly of the First Congregational Church, who has been on a lecturing tour through the Soutb,. has received a call from the Plymouth Congregational church in Los Angeles Cal.

Thursday, while John Davey was painting a house at Windsor, the scaf- folding gave away, and he fell to the ground a distance of over thirty feet. He struck on his head and neck, and was unconscious when piokedup. His wrist was fractured, and he received severe injuries on the side of the head. He was unconscious for three hours, but the doctor is of the opinion that he will recover. Thursday forenoon ayoung man,well connected and prominently known about Berlin, stepped into Mr.. A. J. Gabiel's jewe]ery store, andasked to be shown some rings. On examining a tray full of them he remarked that they did not suit, and was about to step out, when Mr. Gabielstopped him, and demanded the restoration of two of the most valuable rings. He at first stoutly denied having taken them, but on being threatened with instant arrest, he owned up and handed over the spoil. General Manager Clonstou, of the Bank of Montreal, at the recent an- nual meeting said: "In Canada the future is still sarrounded in uncertainty. The' past year has been very disappointing -a year of increas- ing business depression, full of un- settling incidents, and there have been a considerable number of fail- ures. More will have to follow unless some improvement takes place this year. The position, so far as . I can read it, is this, and it seems to mean a very delicate one. Any further de- pression coming on the community already weakened by a long fight against adverse circumstances will precipitate a very serious state of affairs, worse than anything we have yet had to encounter. On the other hand, a settlement of the tariff, with a clue regard to vested interests, a good crop with fair prices, lenient treatment and judicious, meantime, to those in business, may yet make this year the beginning of a prosperous eycle. The position is not by any means hopeless. Crop prospects are good in the Northwest, fair in Ontario, though backward in Quebec. Mineral development still continues in the west, and adding daily to the wealth of the country. Though our lumber i theUnited States trade with t S fes is not. in a satisfactory position, our lumber trade with England is good." noon was a success beyond expectation. Fully 3,000 people were assembled to listen to Mr. Whitney, the Conserva- tve ea er in a was generally regretted that Mr. Willough- by, Col. Matheson and DIr. St. John were called home from Windsor, and were unable to be present.. Mr. Whit- ney and Mr. Thomas Magwood were met at the depot by the local Conser- vatives, and were driven to the hotel. In the afternoon, theExeter brass band playing patriotic airs, beaded the procession from the hotel to the rink. The building was nicely decorated. Over the main entrance was the motto "Welcome," and over the platform another, which read, "Hail to Our Be- loved Chief." The entrance of Mr. Whitney was a(the signal for cheers and applause. Dr. Rollins presided, and around him on the platform were a ntunber of visitingpol iticians. DrRollins opened the tweeting with a short but pointed address, Major Beck, the Conservative can- didate for West Huron, was the first speaker. He was given a good reception,and explained that he didnot come down to make a speech, but to join his friend Mr. Either, in his first rally, and to welcome the leader of the Opposition. He was glad the ladies were present in such large numbers, and said the large attend- ance augured well for the success of Mr. Eilber. In him the people of South Huron had a splendid candi- date, and already the Grits were be- ginning to feel his. strength. (Cheers.) He was the best candidate the Con- servatives ever had in the riding. He referred to the way in which the county was gerrymandered, the town- ships of Goderich and Hullett being cut in two, and closed by eulogizing the leader. Mr. Whitney was received with great applause, the ladies waving their handkerchiefs and the inen cheering lustily. The leader said that for the first trine in bis life he was going to have to confess a. fear that he would not be able to make his voice audible at any great distance. He did not purpose in consequence to nm:ek:e a speech but just to have a little talk with the people on current politics. He was glad to see so many w.cluen present, not because he want- ed to see them removed from the po- sition where they bad been placed in the scheme of civilization, but be- cause of the softening influence which they always exerted wherever they went. He paid a high compliment to Mr. Bilber's ability, and bad no doubt he would be the next representative for South Huron. (Cheers.) He had known Mr. M. Y. McLean for thirty years, and always found him a man of standing in the community. But he objected to his political views, and this:was why he was here to speak against his return. Under the party system of Government there was not much danger of the country suffering seriou';ly for any length of time if the people were true to themselves. (Hear hear.) Very few realize what we owe to the British system of party Gov- ernment. Soule say we have too much party, but this he did not con- cur in, although at times there was too much patry acrimony. Without going too closely into figures Mr. %Vhitney explained the condition of 'tbe finances of the Province. When Confederation was effected it was intended t hat each Province should have a 'la,;•ie, stable and economical form of ;l,,vernment, having due re- gard t, the preservation of the as- sets.

Another thing he wished 1 . ; :te was that the Government owed wc,::ey for borrowed money, and had ., .1 ,l it for years.

(Laughter.) It was surprising what balderdash such good men as Mr. McLean would engage in to catch votes. Mr. Whitney explained how Money was "judiciously" expended, asMr. McLean wouldsay, on colon- ization roads. It was placed where it would do the most good for the roads - and the party. (Laughter.) instance after instai,ce was given where as much had been paid out for inspection of work as for the work itself. Now, there was no audit.

The necessity for increasing the scope and useful ness of the public schools was placed before the meeting. On an algebra which cost seventy-five cents a royal ty ofeleven cents and a fraction was paid to a couple of High school teach ers, who simply compiled the book. He said that when he and his friends carne into power, as they shortly would, they would remedy all these defects. The keystone of his policy • South Huron Liberals. The Liberals of South Huron as con- stituted for provincial purposes inet in convention at Hensall on Friday last. The convention was one of the largest, most enthusiastic and harmonious ever held in the county.. Over 140 de- legates registered their names, every polling subdivision being fully re- presented. Mr. McEwen, of Hensall, presideit of the association, presided, and Mr. Thomas Fraser, of Stanley, acted as secretary. On the first ballot the convention was practically unani- mous for the present member, Mx.. M. Y. McLean, he having received all the votes except five or six. The nominat- ion was made unanimous by a. stand- ing vote. Mr. McLean in a.brief speech, accepted the notninationathanking the convention for the unanimity with which they had approved of his course and conduct as their representative.

THE STATEMENT OF A LADY WHO WAS A DYSPEPTIC. Afflicted with Pains in the stomach, Nausea and vomiting -Constipation, Headaches and Other Distressing Symptoms Followed. From Le Sorelois, Sorel, Que., Dyspepsia and kindred disorders of the digestive organs are becoming alarmingly prevalent aanong thepeople of all classes, and it is safe to say that there are few ills afflicting mankind productive of more real misery than indigestion. It is said that happiness and a good digestion go hand in hand. and the statement contains more truth then has been generally admitted. It may be safely said therefore, that the medicine that will cure dyspepsia is a blessing to mankind, a promoter of human happiness, good work cannot be too widely known. Such is the opinion of Mrs. P. Lussier, of Sorel, Que., and is is because of this that she gave the following statement to a re- presentative of Le Sorelois. "For some time past,' ;site said "I had been suf- fering from a malady that at first 1 could not define, but which proved to be a severe attack of dyspepsia. After each meal I felt a sensation to over full- ness, even when I had eaten most sparingly. This feeling was accom- panied by severe pains in the region of the stomach, and frequently by nausea, and sometimes vomiting, Con- stipation followed, which added to my misery. In the interval I suffered from fever add slight headache, and became generally indisposed. At times the pain in the stomach was less severe' M y appetite was leaving ine, I had no taste, for anything and at this stage my son, Alfred, assistant mana- ger of "Le Sorelois" urged ins to try Dr. Williams Pink Pille,,,•at the same time urging me to read an article in that paper which related to the cureof a person similarly afflicted. I wasskepti- cal and did not believe the pills would help me, but a few days later I re -rend the article and decided that I would try this medicine and I have much reason to be glad that I did so. I took a couple of Dr. Williams Pink Pills after each meal and little by little per- ceived that my digestion was becom- ing more easy. I continued the use of the pills for a littlemoxe than amonth, and have pleasure in stating that my cure is complete. At my age (00 years) one greatly appreciates being able to enjoy one's meals, and I bless the day I began to use Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and I heartily recommend them to other sufferers Dr, Williams' Pink Pills cure indi- gestion, rheumatism, neuraliga, loco- noter ataxia, St. V itus' dance, nervous headache and prostration, disease of the blood, such as scrofula, chronic erysipelas, and restores pale and sallow complexions to the glow of health.
