NOTES AND COMMENTS The Dominion Government has given its answer to enemies who as- serted that the Canadian Alien Labour Law was designed for ornament and not for use. its interference would have given no particular advantage to the Governxnent if it had been forced to action by a large influx of alien labour. The Government has wisely acted on its own account. It .has shown an inclin- ation to protect Canadians in the right to work in their country, and whatever else the Liberal Government does ordoes not do, its prompt-applica- tion romptapplica- tion of the alien labour law to the North-west and to British Columbia is deserving all praise. ;. x Sir Richard Cartwright is blamed. by the Huntingdon Gleaner because after condemning an expentlitnre of $3SJ)U41- 000 for 1$90, he proposed an. expendi- ture of $5.1,000,00[) for 1897. But we are merely:at the beginning of the business. All the large expenditures which :well the figures are the results of political obligations. There are more to be niet. Mr. Fielding carried Noya Scotia for the local Liberals by offering to recoup out of the Federal treasury proyincial railway subsidies aggregating $1,350,00u. We hi On- tario will have to carry our share of this, and the Globe, which supports Mr. Fielding, is helping to foice this share upon us. The Dominion isbeing plunged into 'matey liabilities, but On- tario will be the greatest sufferer, thanks to Mr. Fielding and the To- ronto Globe. An instance of how careful the On- tario Reform party are of the people's money is given by the Goderich Sig- nal (Liberal) in connection with the office of the Master -in -Chancery for Huron. For years the salary has been $1,250 per annum, while the revenue has been about $250 a year. It has therefore cost the people $1000 a year to maintain the office. x x + i The report that M. C. Cameron, 'M. P. for West Huron, will appoint his son-in-lew, one Galt, to thepostmaster- ship of Goderich, in case it becomes vacant, is not received by Reformers, and the Signal is strenuously object- ing to such a move. • Mr. Galt has no claim for political favors, -and it looks as though Mr. Cameron might be -paying the way for himself. Keep your weather eye open, Dan. At prohibition conventions delegates talk as if the politicians were to blame for all the misfortunes of their cause. The truth is that temperance people are to blame, and in no snail measure the blame rests on the advocates who attendprohibitiou conventions. The words of temperance men are to the effect that prohibition is the supreme issue, but the votes of temperance men show that prohibition is subordinate to several other issues. What temper- ance men should do is to either talk less or work more. They are strong in many counties which are represent- ed in the Legislature by men who are no friends to temperance. If they mean business why do they not elect sincere and ardent temperance men instead of choosing men who espouse the cause of prohibition at the point of the pistol, and then spend their whole legislative lives in betraying principles which they outwardly ac- cepted in order to win a seat in the Legislature. -t- Since the United States Congress has placed a duty of $2 per M. on pine lumber, it should also be the duty of the Canadian Government to impose an export duty on logs and pulp -wood. Why should our logs be allowed to leave the country without restriction, and sawn into lumber in the United States, giving employment. to Ameri- can citizens, when they thus shut out our lumber? Legislation cannot be enacted too soon, imposing an export duty on logs. + X 'r TRAGEDY AT CENTRALIA. The Latest N ews. . _ _ I A big demand for lumber is reported. xtx Manitoba. Dr.Willonghby, M.P.

A WELL-KNOWN BIDDULPH FARMER SHOT, The absence of the chief officers of the Royal Templar Order, notably \Ir. W. W. Buchanan, from the Prohi- bition Convention held at Toronto last week is explained on behalf of in- depeiidexit prohibitionists as being due to a lack of confidence in the On- tario Alliance. It is openly claimed that the convention committees were loaded up with such prominent Re- formers as Hon. G. W. Ross, Mr, Joseph Tait and Rev. Dr. Dewart, for the purpose of whitewashing the Hardy Government. The lack of con- fidence in the affiance has been demonstrated by the small number of outsiders who registered, which only totalled seventy-five. In view of this the Royal Templar executive will push forward the project for the organiz- ation of a prohibition federation. The St. Thomas Journal has entered the ranks of grumblers. It says: "The Government has dissappointed its friends at not being able to implement the pledge to reduce expenditure. Sir Wilfred Laurier and Mr. Mills told many an Ontario audience that they could reduce the controllable expendi- ture by two or three millions of dol. lars. It might have been found diffi- cult. to keep this promise, but every effort should have been made to pre- vent the increase which has actually been incurred. The reduction of the number r of Cabinet Ministers should have been promptly made. and the face of the Government shonld have been set as a flint against the bonus - mg of small railroads and the erection of public buildings except in such places as the revenue warranted a capital outlay.' Then as to the exten- sion of the Intercoloaiaal to Moutreal, about which so much is said by the Conservatives and so much is feared by the Liberals. we think, in view of the other heavy expenditures under- taken at the late session, that this scheme might well have been allowed to stand." The Journal thinks the Government's mistakes have resulted from paying too much attention tothe demands of "friends" in and out of Parliament. The Toronto World the other day gave this practical object lesson on t ie great profit the farmers of Canada are to derive from the free admission of corn into this country. "Last Tuesday a, carloadof hogsarriyed at the Toronto cattle market from Essex county. Up till Saturday they remain- ed unsold from the fact that the animals had been fed on corn. The price of the pea -fed hogs during the week was $5.05, and every such hog found a ready sale at the market last week. The corn fed hogs would not bring $5, although they were offered at that figure. The principal dealers in hogs refuse to handle corn -fed pork at any price, as it is un suitable for the English export trade. Free corn •dt•ill certainly be no benefit to this country as far as the beg industry is concerned.. On the contrary it will be a serious menace to ane of, Canada's most pro- mising industries. The majority are unenlivens in their opposition to the use of corn in feeding hogs. The majority of farmers do not approve of free corn because it tends to decrease the price of oats, barley and other coarse grain. The dury on American cosh should be xestored." ' • 'Farmer John McMillan, of South Huron, who is one of the •champions Of free corn, does not raise hogs. Because a drop of carbolic acid made a black spot on the pretty face of Lap"^aa Norkuss, she committed suicide on, ..onlay, by taking a close of paris green. Laura was 22 years of age. Worry and bail health are supposed to have unhinged her mind. At reek. -night on Tuesday, while the citizens of the peaceful little village of Centralia, were enwrapped in quiet slumber, a shooting affray was being. enacted on one of the back streets, William Kelly nsa, popular andd well- to-do farmer of the lst concession of Biddulph, near Mooresville. He is one of the large army of men Mr. Bobier, of Exeter, has engaged to haul cream to the Jersey Creamery, and it is. Mr. Kelly's work to gather the cream in the morning, put it on ice during the day, and haul it to the factory in the eyening. It was while on his way home Tuesday evening that he receiv- ed the contents of one of the chambers of a 32 -calibre revolver into his head. He reached Centralia about eleven o'cloek, stopping at Grafton's hotel. Shortly after that hour he left the Hotel, stating to the landlord that he wished to see `Billy" Taylor, to en- gage lien to help with some farm work the following day, and proceed- ed to Taylor's abode. "Taylor and his wife. and daughter live with Richard Culbert, Taylor's son -iii -law, who his a widower. Kelly knocked at the back door, Culbert, re- sponding. He told his mission, but Culbert appeared to be out of sorts. Receiving no satisfaction, Kelly re- turned to the house shortlyafterwards and tapped on thewindow, whereupon ("allied seized his revolver and fired through the window at Kelly, putting a long 32 cartridge into his head. The ball entered at the lower part of the left -nasal bone near the eye, breaking it, and passing back into the head, lodged near the lower part of the left ear. Belly staggered half unconscious to a door step to sit down, but Culbert, it is said, came out of the house, caught him by the aria and walked hint off the place. When they reached the gate, Culbert, doubtless realizing what he had done and observing the limp condition of Kelly, examined Ins victim and noticing the hole in his head tried to extract the bail. Notic- ing that Kelley was losing consider- able blood, he beeame alarmed and at once despatched "Billy" Taylor for the local physician. Tho, doctor, -learning what had happened, would not go near the place without a constable. Soon a number of persons were at the scene of the tragedy, and bad Kelly removed and comfortably stretched out in Culbert's house, while County Constable Davis arrested Culbert and gplaced him in Crediton lock up. Dr. owning, of Exeter, and Dr. Wis- hart, of London, were summoned, and for several liatu's worked without suc- cess to find the ball. As further pro- bing would be injurious to the pati- ent, Kelly was removed to his home in Biddulph, to wait developments, and if he recovers, which, in the opinion of the doctors, is likely, the -Rays will be employed to locate the ball. The patient gradually grew stronger as he recovered from the shock, and was able to walk from the house to the waggon and sit in the seat to ride home. The persons in the house at the time of the shooting were : Richard Cul- bert, the prisoner : William Taylor, wife and daughter, and Mrs. George illuttart, of Exeter. It is said that Culbert had been quarrelling with several people during the day and was somewhat out of temper in consequence ; but he claims be was justified in shooting Kelly. The prisoner wale taken before Magistrate Lewis, at. Crediton yester- day afternoon, and committed to Goderich jail for trial, Corn -law agitation in Britain and wand grabbing •agitation in Toronto should be reminders that evils never die.

I grew morbid in nand, lost my appetite, had to force myself to eat what little I did. I was reduced to almost a skel- eton, weighing only 90 pounds at the time I commenced to use Milburn's Heart and Nerve Pills, and I can telt you I would have given but little for my chances of living much longer.
