The Toronto Globe saysthat without doubt the greatest industry of Tor- onto, present ancl.prospective, is pork packing. It goes on to say that the' hog is as much a product of dairy countries as butter and cheese, and hog -raising is increasing in Ontario at ,1, remarkable rate. In 1889 the in m her of hogs in Ontario under one year old was estimated at 908,000, while last year the number was estimated to be 1,375,000. The Globe thinks the time is not distant when Ontario will raise two million hogs year-or-.n-.orc. Durinee he.year ending.Jtme, 1598, the eee'dhadian exports of hams and bacon to Great Britain amounted to 12 504 tons valued at $8,000,000.

The latter's years should put him out of the race, .though his now deceased brother received the ap .pointinen"`e„at seventy, an ;age when civil service`cffficials are being super- annuated as' et rule. The office is worth $2,500 a year. The Hardy and Laurier Go^, eril- iruents, by combining forces to carry West Elgin for the Liberals at .all costs, succeeded in securing the seat for Mr. McNish ab Thursday's election, defeating the plucky young Censer- native, Mr. McDiarmid by over taco hundred majority. The latter made a splendid fight against tremendousiodds which, proved invincible. The deter- 11, mination to elect Mr. McNish by any means, fair or foul, the St Thomas Times observes in its issue of 1\1ond.ay last, was openly proclaimed. Canadian . newspaper men ,tvithunt ` distinction of politics will regret, that the health of Editor J. S.
