John Charlton's iudictreent against
the Laurier Government is not so vig-
orously stated as that formulated ley
H. IL 1.2 ook, but, apart from the Sena-
torial incident, it amounts to the same
thing. Both H. H Cook and John
Charlton, were Liberal M. Fs. in Par-
liareent, and they accuse the Govern-
or broken pledges.

It may perhaps serve as an illumin-
ant of H. IL Cook's letter against the
Goverernent to quote a single sentence
from Morgan's "Canadian Men and
Women of the Times," pttblished.three
years ago -"Mr. Cook's name is now
frequently mentioned in connection
with the Senatorship," and to add
thereto the disappointing fact that the
appointment was never made. -Strat-
ford Beacon.
Our cotem miglat also haye said that
the reason Mr. Cook did not get the
senatorship was because he woula not
pay Laurier $10,000 for the office.

It appears that If an eleetion cannot
be fought by square and honest
methods,then other methods will be re-
sorted to.--Olinton New Era.
Our cotem understands the situation
precisely. Evidence the late West

well known to recite.

In 1896 young stockers going to the
States were only worth $2.50 per head.
according- to official fieures, In 1899
they were worth $12.50, and this great
advance came to the farmers through
the removal of the quaratine through
the present government.- Olin ton
New Era.
Instead of shipping their stockers to
the States the farnaers now fatten
them on their farms, hence the increase
in price. The removal of the quaran-
tine is an advantage only to United.
States stockmen shipping by way of
Canada to Britain.

THE FARMERS IGNORED,
The Government was asked to grant
a small bonus for a brief period to pro-
motebettei,* produetion and, butter ex-
portation. Australia hod already
done it, and had created an immense
trade, which turns large sums of
money into the farmers' pockets. It
was also asked to give a slight bonns,
temporarily, to the farmers for grow-
ing the sugar beet, in order to set the
beet sugar industry agoing. Many of
the eeigbboring States have done this
with good results. Mr. Fisher,
ter of Agriculture, however, was
horrieed when these propositions
were set before him. They were
against "political "'economy," and it
would never do thus to belp the farm-
ers. Yet, last year Mr. Fisher paid
$70,061 of the farmers' taxes as a
bonus to British Columbia companies
for smelting silver ore, 3187,954 to the
makers of pig iron, $17,511 to the
makers of puddled bars,. and $76,6a4
to the makers of steel ingots. Here
are $380,078 paid as bounties in one
year for the making of iron and sayer;
but a few thousand dollars for the
farmer as a bouuty to encourage cer-
tain of his lines of production was too
big a consideration to give, and too
much opposed to "political economy"
to be agreed to.
Liberal speakers will 'next be claim-
ing that if farmers only vote for them
their cows will have two calves a year.
But farmers sold their butter and
cheese before ever Leerier came into
power, and, because there is a war
which has caused an increase in prices,
they trip to nlake farmers believe they
brought about the increase. But the
farmers are too intelligent to be caught
by such chaff.
When is a ton a ton? The big coal
strike brings to the front again sonic
facts which the consumer may take
interest in digesting. The mine
owner counts a ton at 2,800 pounds.
That is, he requires the miners to prc-
duce thee many pounds before lie is
paid for a ton. The mine owner in
selling to the retailer: that is the city
dealer gives him 2,240 pounds. The
retailer is supposed to give the public
2,000pounds. In yiew of the above fig-
ures the average householder who has
probably already had experience of the
appareae shriukabieness of a ton, will
doubtless begin to think his suspicions
may have had some basis. -Ottawa

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 pa1.
pitation, weak spells, lois 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 hear about were real, the ceme- •
teries would be filled in a month. A
Wrong construption 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 -down. The iron in Dr. Ward'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
I Blood and Nerve Pills.
