The Conservative party has a policy.
It has frequently been clearly set forth
in the house, on the platform, and in
the Conservative newspapers. It is to
give Britisb goods preference in the
Canadian market in consideiation for
a small advantage for Canadian pro
ducts in the British market. It is a
very simple proposition a common
every -day business proposal ; and there
is nothing in it that a child could not
understand. Whether Great Britain
will ever accept the proposition is
another thing: that is Great Britain's
affair. The Conservatives simply
make the offer, and that the offer
should be made by Canada is distinctly
stated by Mr. Chamberlain and others.
If the imposition of say 5 cents a bus-
hel on fcreign grain while Canadian
grain was admitted free. constitutes a
"bread tax” in 13ritain, it, may he that
noparty there would agree to accept,
the Canadian proposition. But evonld
a differential clay of say 5. cents a
bushel mi. grain cause a tax on .bread ?.

The excitement that prevailed' over
the relief of Ladysmith! why ie was
nothing to the excitement in our vil-
lage last Thursday, it being the open-
ing day of oar new mill, when over
two hundred people turned out to cele-
brate the occasion. Did the women
go? Well I should say so. Why
there were tall ones, short ones, dark
ones and fair ones, fat and thin ones,
coming from all directions -a whole
grist, of them, And there ae, the door
stood Mr. Shier, the proprietor, suite
ing like the very king of tramps,ready
to weigh them in and weigh them oue.
And the faller fairly bursting with
good nature, longing to take the cus-
tomary toll from some of the fair miles.
But then he is it Scotchtnao, and as
you- know the characteristic of that
nation is modesty and bashfulness, 60
he juse pat the desire in his packet.
Vieelneafter everyone had got their
correct weight and signed their names,
we then proceeded to leave it look at
some of the mysteries of the mill. On
tile first floor we were show:, how the
wheat was emptied into this box. then
it goes into the cellar, then it goes into
this elevator, then comes up here;
then the bran goes out here, the flour
out there, the-shorts—oh ! then went
some place else. "levet too, we found
Mr. Carr making the very best chop.
Then we proceeded to the engine room
and the remarks of admiration 1 hat
ed Fred on the cleanliness and
-3 of -this depat talent must have
very encouraging. From thole
entered the basement of the mill.
— ter having the different uses of the
many boxes and pipes explained to us,
we started for the upper floor. From
the second floor we proceeded to the
garret, where the -funniest thing of all
met our eyes. They,call it the shaker
and sure it was, and to hear all the
funny rentarks. Some said it had !he,
palsy, some that it was ,Iler,V0118—sp
',many ladies looking at it, some that it
,would he a good place to sit on top
if yotWe're--

it wonldn't do to tell all they said.
Thltit'aYd.iodk fanny , ea eee sleet a lee

legs. Now we are at the top storey,
bas have we eeea ? No. We must
have a. look iit the miller. if thp
looks ot the man neve anything to do
with the kind of flour, we would pre-
dict for this section the very best.
And as some present bad tried the
flour and hen proved it to be the very
best, we feel safe in recommending it
to all.
