UNCLE SAM FIRST.
At Kingston four huudred Canadians
axe be thrown out a work, because
the Laurier Government insisted upon
giving it,: last artier for Intereolomal
locomotives to the United States.
The locomotive works were in litigae
tie% and a wealthy synireeate proposed
to take up the business, provided ar-
e ders for engines were forthcoming.
A. communication was sent to Otta-
wa asking for specifications in respect
a twenty locomotives required for
the Intereolonial.
To the stir -prise a the managers, a
response came in these words ;
"In reply I am directed to say that
nothing.will be done in. the matter of
purchasing the said locomotiyes until
the Minister returns to Ottawa."
When the Minister returned to Ot-
tawa the order was sent to the United
States, and now the works will be
closed down, and the workmen dis-
charged.
The Canadians were not even per-
mitted to tender.
Talk about, a British preference;
'Uncle Sam gets the pull everv time.

Among those present were Sir A, P,

Liberal -Conservative Association ;
Messrs. Charles Magee, W. D. Hogg,
R. G. Code, Dr. Heins, J, A. Gemmill,

Mr. Macdonald had an informal re-

Premier of Manitoba and Sir Adolphe
Caron, who accompanied him to Mon-

HUGH jOHN'S STATEMENT.
---
Hon, Hugh John Macdonald was
seen by our correspondent. The Pre-
mier of Manitoba said he had. come
east expressly for the purpose of join-
ing Sir Charles Tupper at the Montreal
meetings and the Ontario tour. At
the conclusion of the Ontario tour he
would have to return to Winnipeg, as
an important meeting of the Legisla-
tnre would. be held on Sept. 25th. Mr.
Macdonald said he was still Premier of
Manitoba, and he would not resign until
the writs for the Dominion elections
were made.
Regarding his entrance into Dornin.
• ion politics, Mr, Macdonald made the
following important stlitement;-
“I am going into the Dominion cam-
paign at Sir Charles Tupper's personal
request, and I am going into the cam-
paign as a follower of Sir Charles Tup-
per. That is my- position."
• Speaking of Conservative prospects
in the West, Premier Macdonald said
he was convinced the Conservative
party would carry every ene of the
seventeen seats west of the lakes.
• It, is said that owing to the intro-
duction of electricity for the manufac-
ture of cigars, cigarettes, and tobacco
several thousand hands will soon be
thrown out of work.
The Cobden Sun says: A judgment
of which farmers and threshers will do
well to make a note, was delivered
here on Friday by. Judge Deacon. A
farmer, named Krinsinske, brought an
action against, a thresher, who had
disappointed him after the plaintiff
had gone to tbe trouble and expense
of making all preparations for the
threshers' s coming. The Judge de-
cided the plaintiff was entitled to dam-
ages. This virtually means that with-
in the Judge's jnrisdiction the thresh-
ers must keep their appointments, no
• mateer how tempting a job offers it-
self to one of them, while on his way
to work for which a contract has al-
ready been made.
Since the shortage of the wheat crop
in the North-west, says the Kansas
City Journal, mills in that section have
bought great quantities of Kansas
bard Winter wheat and rallied it as
"Minneapolis spring wheat flour" hav-
ing found there was no difference in
quality. One dealer alone shipped
200,000 bushels of hard wheat to Min-
neapolis and he was not -among the
large lIndlers. Kansas millers are
stirred up about it, as the flour is coin-
• iniefor sale in Kansas. A large buyer
• in Scotlend, • writes that • he
is selling Kansas hard wheat flour on

About 6.30 Tuesday evening of last
week a rear end collision took place in
St. Marys on the Grand Trunk Rail-
way. A heavy freight of forty-two
cars parted sixteen car lengths from
the rear while trying to make the
heavy grade just west of the town.
Another train of nearly as many cars
as number one came around the sharp
turn from the junction. The engineer
had been cronding on all possible
speed in order to prevent the stalling
on the grade just in front of him when
he first saw the rear of the other train
less than a quarter of a mile ahead.
He applied the brakes,and shut off
steam, but the mementutn of the train
was too great to be stopped on the
down grade at that point. The ca.
boose was thrown high into the
air by the shock, to such an extent as
to prevent further damage to the
train. The car of cen,ent, the caboose
and the engine of the second train
went down the south side of the em-
bankment. The cars are smashed al-
most to kindling, and the engine is
badly wrecked. The roar of escaping
steam from the engine could be heard
all over town for nearly an hour. All
the other cars, and the tender of the
engine remained on the track and
moved forward about fifty yards. No
one was injured.
ROBBED THE GRAVE.
• A Startling iacident, of which Mr.
John Oliver of Philadelphia, was Use
subject, is narrated by him as follows:
"I was in a most dreadful condition.
My skin was almost yellow, eyes stiok-
en, tongue coated, pain continally in
back and sides, no appetite-- gradually
growing weaker day by day. . Three
physicians had given meup. Fortun-
ately, a friend advised trying 'Electric
Bitterse and to my great joy and sur-
prise, the first bottle made a decided
improvem en t. I continued their use
for three weeks, and am now a well
man. I know they saved nay life, and
robbed the grave of another victim."
No one should fail to try thein. Only

teed. at any Diug Store.

violence, to prevent other men from
getting employment at the 'works.
They had stayed al certain pointn

ing around a factory in this nay
and using such means amounted to a
besetting of the company's place.
The defendants' purpose and inten-

Honor. It was perfectly right for
men to band together for their own
protection, but they must do it legal-
ly, and at the same time employers
should receive equal protection. 'The
capitalists should not control the
men; nor should the men control the
capitalists. The fine would be. $5,

so small: because the men did not

We live by our blood, and on
it. We thrive or starve, as
our blood is rich or poor.
There is nothing else to live
on or by.
When strength is full and
spirits high, we are being- re-
frzshed, bone muscle and brain,
b )dy and mind, with con-
tinual flow of rich blood.
This is health.
When weak, in low spirits,
no cheer, no spring, when rest
is not rest and sleep is not
we are starved; our blood
is poor; there is little nutri-
ment in it.
Back of the blood, is food,
to keep the blood rich. When
it fails, take Scott's Emulsion

It is fashionable to -day to have a
new heart scare every 24 hours.
The commonest symptoms of dys-
pepsia or nerve trouble, such as pal-
pitation, weak spells, loss of appe-
tite, and poor circulation, are magni-
fied and distorted into serious signs
of heart trouble, with the object of
frightening the public into taking
this or that heart remedy. If a
hundredth part of the heart trouble
we htar about were real, the ceme-
teries would be filled in a month. A
Wrong construction is put upon com-
mon ailments in order to humbug
the people into the belief that heart
disease is prevalent, whereas real
heart trouble, which is so sadly and
suddenly fatal when it does occur, is
a rare disease. Lopsided arguments
cannot convince an intelligent people.
Iron is the vital element of the blood.
Too little iron means weakness, lack
of spirit, pallid cheeks, shortness of
breath, sleeplessness, nervousness,
loss of vital force, ending in general
break-dbwn. The iron in Dr.Vard's
Blood and Nerve Pills is in the solu-
ble form you need, in combination
with other curative agents in such a
manner that disease can't resist their
action. You feel yourself getting
well when you take Dr. Ward's
Blood and Nerve Pills.
