The Woodstock Sentinel -Review falls in with the view that the Civic Holiday and Labor Day, coining so close together, can very appropriately be amalgamated. It adds "Too many holidays are aninfliction On the merchants, whose expenses go on all the time, whether open for busi- ness or closed, and the advocates of public holidays should not press for too much, otherwise the whole system mey drop into a state of gnomons de- suetude.'" St. Thomas Council provided that the Civic Holiday of that city and Labor Day fell on the same date, and the change was welcomed by all. A DUMPING GROUND FOR FREE CORN. Canada is now being flooded with American corn, which was last session phlceta- on the free list. During the month of August $915,000 worth of coin was imported into the country by way of Montreal alone. The price of oats and the other coarse barley, sins raised by Canadia farmers will ill all in die t proportion to the amount of corn imported. If the farmers of Canada generally entertain the same opinion in regara to free corn as that held by the farmers of York county something will have to give the next time the representatives of the people meet Sir Wilfrid in Parliament. DOSVN WITH NEW LIBERALISM. Another Liberal paper, the Sher- brooke Examiner, has declined to con- done the misdeeds of the Administra- tion, and particularly of ane member of it. After denouncing the Ministers for introducing the spoils system, it says : "Mr Tarte has not fulfilled the ex- pectations that were raised with re- gard to him. His energy is great—too great. It is too great for his intellect. Mr. Tarte must be retained. We do not refer merely to his wrong headed- ness with regard to the Montreal har- I.iem) but to his public attitude gener- ally, "Ile hardly goes to a constituency in either this province or Ontario with- out making a speech on what the Goy ernment intends to spend on that con- stituency. "That is one of the things that Lib- erals condemned in the Conservatives and if we are to be consistent, we must condemn it in Mr. Tarte. "The honest Liberals of the country —the plain men who fought for honest government—dislike most bitterly the appeals to local greed that 4lr. Tarte is so free with. "We trust thatPremier Laurier will consider these matters with care and promptitude. There has been unrest for some months, and it can only be allayed by a substantial change." Ontario had one ear badly boxed when the American Government placed an import duty on Canadian lumber. Now premier Hardy turns the other ear to the secret arguments of lumbermen against proyincial legis- lation that all Ontario's logs shall be cut up in Ontario. + — + The ordinary ratepayer doesn't know nor does he particularly care, whether taxes come of the land,capital or e out p labor. But what he does know with a certainty that admits no doubt, is that he bas to hustle hard by day and lie awrgise at nights trying to get money to5settle his- instalments in their sea- son. x ., ., "Canadians can put up with a lot of Yankee insult," says the Welland -..telegraph, "but when the Liberal ma- cliineryof Ontario openly aIlowYankee police in,tiniforrn to do duty on Cana- dian soil for the purpose of keeping Canadians out of employment it is time to kick." The Jockey Club at Fort Frie have, it seems, imported a lot of Pinkertonpolice to look after the crowds during the races, while county constables are practically idle. More- over, according to a despatch from Niagara Falls, "the Canadian author, - ties are placed in -a ridiculous position,. having Ainerican police officers mak- ing arrests and bringing prisoners be- fore Canadian magistrates . for trial, and certainly there will be trouble if American dtizens are •sworn in as Can ::.iian specials." An investigation by the provincial ; authorities is re- quired. NOTES AND COMMENTS I ada, an admirer of its resources, and The Latest News. Our Liberal friends are most bacon- 1 development in commerce and trade Such was not a characteristic before the late election. + x + The latest speculation concerning the portfolio to be vacated shortly by Sir Oliver Mowat is that Mr. Laurier will offer it to Mr. Dalton McCarthy. That wouldindeed be a surprise to the country. It ought to be more than a surprise to Mr. McCarthy himself. The worst enemy of the man wbo was primarily responsible for the non suc- cess of the Conservative party has not veutured the hint that his course was dictated by the ambition for personal advancement from the hand of Mr. Laurier. Michigan's Wheat. epee• willing to note every sign of Mrs, McDermott, on trial at Battle- ' ford for the alleged poisoning of her husband, has been acquitted. The assessment returns show the handsome increase of 1,153 in London's population during the past year. . The daughter of Geo. R, Holmes, of St. Oatherines, was so severely burned by her clothes. catching fire that death took place in a Few. hours, Mr, Blair's management of the In- tercolonial Railway will result in a deficit this year. The falling off is in the freight traffic department. It is said that the • Federal elec- tions to fill the vacancies in Temis- couata and Drummond and Arthabas- ka will be held at the end of this month. The Ontario Government will send Prof. Wihnont to theMichipicoten dis- trict toinvestigate es afi and report eto the bureau of ,sines concerninthe gold finds there. A. J.Robillard, the absconding:ticket agent of the Grand Trunk at Sb,Henrie, has been traced to New York. An ex- amination of his books shows a large shortage in his accounts. Must not be confounded with com- mon cathartic or purgative pills. Car- ter's Little Liver Pills are entirely un- like them in every respect. One trial will prove their superiority. Major Walsh will likely leave Ot- tawa for Winnipeg on Monday next where he will remain for two or three days before proceeding to the Yukon. He is arranging for his trip. The largest sale of sole leather ever made in Canada was made in Montreal by Shaw, Cassils & Co. This trausact- ion involved the transfer of25,000 sides for a consideration of about $75,000.

The Farmers' Binder Companyar y have shut down the works at Brant- ford far a couple of weeks. This has been a successful season. The manage - nit gave their employes an excurs- ian. This season the shipment of berries from the Leamington district totalled 40,000 crates, or 1,200,000 pounds, the value being . 560,000. The Canadian Express Company handled something over 35,000 crates, valued at 553,000. James Bissett, a farmer of Cart- wright, Man., became insane on Wed- nesday, and attempted to drown an adopted boy in a pond. He afterwards assailed a neighbor with an axe. He was arrested, and is now in the Bran- don asylum. W. H. Ordway, advance' agent of the Noab's Ark Company. which has been showing at the Toronto Exhibition, was killed at the Union station about one o'clock Saturday afternoon. He was on the track when a train backed up and ran over him, killing him in- stantly. W. J. Barrett, accountant of the Post Office Department, Ottawa, died at 2 o'cluck Thursday after a few days' illness. Thedeceased was 53 3 years of age, and was appointed to the service in 1874. ]:Ie was receiving, a salary of $1,500. It is understood that Sir Oliver Mo- wat has consented to become Lien - tenant -Governor of the Province of Ontario, provided that Hon. David Mills gets the portfolio of Justice. If Mr. Mills accepts, as he no doubt will, then in a very short time Sir Oliver will be at Government House, Toronto and Mr. Mills Minister of Justice in Ottawa. A deplorable and probably fatal. accident occurred at Little Britain, Ont., on Tuesday. James Price, the eldest son of a farmer who lives near Little Britain, was exercising a young horse, when it ran away. He was thrown from the vehicle, and sus- tained injuries which are so serious that but faint hopes are entertained of his recovery. Samuel Piper, a most respected farmer residing on the 9th con. of Suunidale, Out., while working in. the harvest field Thursday afternoon, was overcome by the intense heat,and died before medical aid could be procured. Deceased was about 60 years of age, and was born at Whitechurch, Mark- ham township, where he x•esiclecl for a number of years. Some four weeks ago Dr. Shaw and party left Carberry for. the Klondyke intending to reach the interior by one of the Pacific coast routes, but on reachingDyea theyfound it imposs- ible to roceed ovrthe pass. I The members decided to return, and Dr. Shaw reached Carberry Thursday, but they will not abandon the trip, and after arranging matters the party will endeavor to reach the Yukon country via the route north-west from Edmon- ton. A daughter of Mr. George R. Holmes eight years of age, of St. Catherines, was terribly burned about five o'clock on Wednesday by her. clothes catching fire from the stove, near which she was standing. When the little one found her dress on fire, she ran out in the street, which fanned the flames. A lady who was passing, and hearing be screams, with great presence of min took off her skirt, wrapped it arou the little girl and quenched the flam s but not before almost every piece clothing had burned off. She died 11 o'clock that night. Miss Sarah Jane Kelly, of Londo suet an accidental death Friday even in of a very sad, sudden and peculia nature. Shortly after 8 o'clock Miss Kelly asked her mother to heat some water, as she wished to take an inject- ion to relieve pain. After administer- ing the treatment she expressed a fear hat she had injured herself; and began feel numb. Miss Kelly died from bole acid poisoning. She had an at- k of appendicitis several months ago it was to remove suppcsecl symp- s of a 'second threatened attack t she, on her own a dva r, took, ith a fountain syringe, an iejection f water containing a teaspoonful or two of carbolic acid, into the boatel. In fifteen minutes she was dead.. sistent. One moment they argue for the retention of the Hardy Govern- ment on account of their long experi- ence in office, being thus, they say, more fitted than any new men could be. The next moment they excuse the dismissal of old civic servants on the plea that they are two long at their posts. Mr. -Mulock, Postmaster -Gen- eral, discharged his deputy, Ool. White, because he said that gentle- man had two much experience, and put in his place acountry doctor, with- out any experience at all. + x + TheL •' iffy! nt.lalto s teme rat for thep est fiscal year, the first of the Laurier re- gime, will be published in this week's Canada Gazette. It will show that the receipts for 1896-97 were $37,809, • 347, and the expenditure $38,335,086, leaving a deficit of $525,739. The ex- penditure is $1,200,000 more than the expenditure on current account of the last year of the Conservative regime. The deficit would baye been larger but for the fact that the distillers, in anticipating an increase in the spirit duties, paid a million dollars in excise duties, on liquor taken out of bond in excess of their ordinary contribution to the revenue. This will diminish this year's revenue to that extent. The net debt is $261,291,000, an in- crease of $2,97.4,000 for the next year. x + x There are two views as to the early future of wheat. One is that the price may go higher, another that it will not more than average that now prevalent. A great deal depends upon the final adjustment of supplies avail- able in the markets of the world for the next six months. It must not be forgotten that while there is appar- ently a shortage in Europe to -day, the harvest in some parts of the world is reaped earl next year, and that any surplus available p will be drawn to Great Britain, France, and other im- portant countries. There may be times when Canadian farmers can profit by bolding back their wheat, but year in and year out, and taking into account insurance, interest, Ioss by animals, and general depreciation from storage, the farmer who markets early is money in pocket. x x + Great is wheat ! The good swelling kernels that feed the world's millions is king in Canada to -day. We have un- told bushels of it to market —we have wheat to burn—and every bushel is worth a dollar in gold. Optimists may talk about expected influx of English capital and what it is going to do for Canada, and theorists urge that this tariff will make or that tariff will mark our prosperity, but the solidi fact remains that when wheat harvests are big and wheat t prices climb high, gh, this young country of ours throws out its chest and calls aloud to the world that all things are well. Created wealth and plenty of it is what we want in Canada, Destitution will at- tend to itself, and the middleman will find his appointed work. The good brown earth has given us a harvest that makes bright faces on Canadian farmers and Canadian business men alike. Great is wheat ! x -- There is a large degree of truth in the theory of those economists who contend that the small savings of bard. times make possible the good times which come in alternate cycles. It is a fact that very many people who spend all their earnings when money is easily obtained, become more i economical than would appear neces- sary when commercial depression sets in. They fear the future and set nar- row limits to the want of the present. The result is to aggravate the business situation, and to fill the savings bank. Interest falls by reason of large de- posits on the one hand, and the timidity of business men on the other. Then as soon as the small depositors feel that their bank account is a safe- guard against future contingencies they become dissatisfied with the 1 rate of interest bawl t < a rad look for in- vestments. And when people are look- ing for investments, and have both the courage and the money necessary for business enterprise the shadow of bard ti>ues lifts and the era of prosperity is again at hand. + x + . The London Advertiser is endeavor- ing to blame the Conservatives for the movement set on foot before the last election to have the oil duty abol- ished, allowing the Americans to con- trol the Canadian market. It was wholly a Liberal movement, being one of the planks of the Liberal plat- form. The member for North Middle- sex went from hustang to hustang and told the farmers that the duty would be so reduced that they would be able to buy coal oil for less than 10 cents a gallon. When elected, what do we find hire doing ? Buy ing stock in a Canadian oil well. Th Conservatives made ' no such boasts and if they did vote to keep out th Standard OH Oro„ were true t their old time principles,—•protectio for Cailaciian products.

The alleged accomplice of Troy, in the Napanee murder, will also be tried, Troy's sentence being deferred till the result of his case is known. The al- leged Minden murderer. Thompson, will also be tried this fall, as will also the girl, Mary McGraw, for child mur- der, in London. The probabilities are that the capital charge will not be proved in all these cases. Arthur Jones, who for the past two years has held the responsible position of ledger -keeper in the Molsons bank here, leaves this (Thursday) morning for London, where he goes into a branch of the same bank. Mr. Jones will be missed by the young folk of town, as he is a genial, courteous and popular young man. He was also treasurer of the bicycle club, who will also miss him. We wish him success in his new field. PASSED TO HER REWA7tD.=Last Sunday morning, Grace Matthews, relict of the late William Martin, passed to her reward. Deceased had been ailing the past ten months, and was practically confined to her room the past three weeks. She was in her 77th year. Deceased was born in Campbellford, Cornwall, England, in 1820. In the year 1850, in company with her uncle and sister she came to Canada. Theysettled in Cobourg, but a few years subsequently they moved to Port Hope. She married William Martin in 1853, when they came west and settled in Osborne township, on lot 16, con. 5, where they toiled as pioneers of those yearshad to do,andby good management succeeded in acquir- ing a goodly share of this world's goods. Mr. Martin died in 1883, since which time deceased has lived with her sons and daughters. They raised a family of five, four of whom are still living, William haying died some years ago. The sons are, Samuel, of Exeter ; and Stephen, Principal of the Collegiate Institute, St. Marys. The claughters are, Mrs. Thomas, Exeter ; and Mrs. Paul Madge, Usborne. Mrs. Martin was a member of the Methodist church ; was an amiable lady, a kind neighbor and loving mother, and en- joyed the acquaintance of a large circle of friends. The funeral on Mon- day was largely attended. "I WILL BE HERALD" n Letting the World Know What a Boon Catarrh Sufferers Have in D Agnew's Catarrh Powder. John E.

The area in wheat last May was 1,- 513,910 acres. Multiplying the acres in each county by the ayerage yield per acre,gives a probable yield in the state of 24,821,,.' a bushels, the largest pro- duced since 1892, when the crop ex- celled 25,000,000 bushels. The number of bushels marketed since Aug. 1, is 1,187,750; In August, 787,573 bushels, 385,444 bushels more than August last year.

Toronto, Sept. 14.—The Star this evening gives a member of the party as authority for the statement that the Patrons of Industry have held their last genera] meeting, and in the future as a combined political party this association of agriculturists will never be a figure. It has been known for some time, the paper says, that the ties which bound the party to- gether were gradually becoming less firm. The desertion of the Grand Vice -President to become a civil ser- vant of the Dominion Government was a shock that could not well be over- come. A number of members decid- ed to adopt his example. There was in Toronto last week a member of Parliament, who dict not attend the gathering. For this reason it was decided eel not tore -elect vice-presi- dent, i e- i- t c a c p . res dent, and to transact formal business, pass resolutions, and quit. The Pa- trons as t secret organization or a social organization may exist for some time, but as a political concern it is no more. Some candidates maybe ap- pointed by county organizations, and run as independent candidates at the next election. Good News From South Llakota. The glorious results of this season's harvest of golden grain will pour a stream of sound >noneyinto the pocket of every Dakota farmer. South Dakota has thousands of acres of choice farming and ranch landlying east of the Missouri river, and within one day s ride from Chicago or Mil- waukee which can. now be bought reasonably cheap, but which before the end of another year may be advanced in price. The stock -raising industry in South Dakota is profitable, and Eastern capi- tal is now being invested in cattle and sheep growing in that state. Diversified farming, the growing of the products of tli live stock,< and p a o dairy, are placing South Dakota, fore- most in the ranks of the successful Western states.

A Nova Scotia Lady Says "I Consider Dr. 1Villianis' Pink Pills a Priceless Boon to Suffering Humanity. Froin the Amherst, N. S. Sentinel. The rugged and the strong do not appreciate to i tsfall extent the blessiug of perfect health. It is only those who haye passed through a trying illness, who feel that health is a treasure to be prized more thou • silver or gold. Among those who have experienced the truth of this is Miss Sabra Rector, of West River Hebert, N. • S This lady has passed through L trying,inhm and wearisome illness, from which appy relief was found through the medium of a medicine that has brought health and strength to thousands of others, and whose medical virtues will work equally good results in all cases where it is given a fair trial. Miss Rector says :—"I feel it is my duty to recom- mend Dr. Williams' Pink Pills,as they have done wonders for me. About two years ago I became very ill with a complication of diseases. I was suffer- ing with indigestion, biliousness and the resulting neivous disorders, such as sick headache, loss of appetite, and flashes of heat and cold. I began doc- toring, and although I had the best of care I seemed to grow worse every day. I slept but little and when lying down would grow so hot and suffer from a sensation of smothering that I would fled it necessary to arise, Then the other extreme would come and I would shiver with cold. Time wore on ar. d there was no improvement in my condition. I was not able to do any work abort the house and even the exertion of moving about would tire me out. If I. attempted to walk any distance or hurried in the least I would gasp for breath and could scarcely speak, I had a very poor ap- petite, and what food I ate did not seem to agree with lire orxurnish need- ed nourishment, and I also suffered with a severe pain in inyside and back. During this time I tried many reme- dies, but they gave rare no relief what- ever. I bad become so weak, and my system was so run downn that life fe Ls ah eider, tar me. Atthis stage to a rn � at- tention was directed to Dr. Williams' Pink Pills and I determined to give them a trial. After using four boxes I felt so much better that hope and encouragement came to me once more. I continued the use of the Pink Pills and found myself steadily gaining health and strength. By the time I had used four boxes more I had fully regained health and st cength and I am not only able to do my full share of household work, but also attend. to nay Sabbath school class and other church duties. I look upon Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills as a priceless boon to sufferinh =tinny."Dr. Williams'WPink Pills are a speci- fic for the troubles which makes the lives of many women a burden, and speedily restore the rich glow of health to pale anti sallow cheeks.
