THE SEASON'S A1'11R TRADE.
A Western operator in apples tuts
commenced, the season by offering
growers Si per barrel for the fruit
with the rise, which means he will
guarantee that price and as much
more as the market may advance, an
offer which not only places him at a
decided disadvantage hut eevors of
reckless awl illegitimate speculation.
In the Arst place the 17. S. and Canada,
apple yield promises to lie enermous,
and the British market is beelad to be
glutted as in 1806-7.-0 when many
Canadians were ruined. In tbe second
place, fruit can bs shipped on an av-
erage a oue sbilling less from Boston
these from Montreal, giving American
exportere, even counting inland freight
Charges, au advantage of at least ari to
40 cents a barrel, wee a. Canadian eats -
net afford to pay more than 50 cents
barrel to have a decent average and
ceme out even. In our opinion the
adyentorous Western apple buyer will
live to regret his recklessness.

'Die young country that does Dot
protect its manufacturers must be
content to take the backwash, of its
neighbore.
It neuet leek on and see many of
its brilliant young men snatched up

It eannot hope, under a policy that
serves to supplant native with foreign
products, to Create places for native
artizaus. The latter will go to the
most promising field.
Under Liberal rule our imports froin
the Matted States have in tour years
increased from $45,000.000 to $80,000.-
000. Those returns indicate a reliance
upon our neighbors at a time when we

favoring him as it does, chalks up a
balance of trade in his favor, amount-
ing to $40,000,000 annually, and he
looks for even 'larger favorable balances
in the future if Canadians keep on
guard at Ottawa, men who would
obliterate every vestige of protection
if they dared to put into practise the
views they beld while in Opposition.
Canada is not living up to its oppor-
tunities. With its immense natural
resources, it should be more independ-
ent of the foreign producer. The lat-
ter has been given the right of occupa-
tion in our markets because a portion
of our people have been taught by
theorists in and out of Parliament that
Free Trade, or something built on Free
Trade lines, is the proper thing for
Canada. No greater mistake, from
a national point of view, could be made
than to suppose thee a vigorous na-
tionality can profitably be made the
prey of foreigners who do not care a
button how much we are injured so
long as they can exchange their goods
for our money.
Our watchword should be :. .No sur-
render to the foreign manufacturer...

ONE PARTY ; ONE POLICY.
Sir Charles Tupper's latest remarks
on the subject of the sending of the
troops to South Africa are in keeping
with his conduct from the first. Be
was among the first of the public men
in Canada to offer his support to the
Government if it would put this coun-
try in line with the Australasian colo-
nies. Repot only spoke from the plat-
form in Nova Scotia in favor of the
action that was taken later but he
telegraphed the Premier the assurance
of his help in Parliament in carrying
any vote to meet the expenses that
tbe despatch of a contingent would
entail. Should the Government be at-
tacked anywhere for its action in the
matter it would be his duty to declare
his sentiments, and he has done so in
a manner that will win hint credit
wherever people respect principlennd
those who act upon it. Neither is the
present, the only occasion on which Sir
Charles Tupper has spoken in antagon-
ism Le the tpresumed ideas of certain
seetiens of the country, whea he
thoteght the public interest recenired it.
He is an opponent of the ideas 61 tbe

has occurred in Blytlt for some years
took place on Wednesday morning
about 5.20 when the saw mill, factory
and electric light plant, all under one

of employment will be a heavy blow to
the village, as Mr. Livingston always
