Evsrtx tesiiperence elector should do- mend a straight out-and-out answer from 1s L heir re their as to w he Mica candid t the political vote would be, if oleotea, on the question of abolishing the saloon at the House of Commons, Ottawa. A licensedbar, with regularly restricted hours, lo not even known in either the Commons or Senate "restaurant." It is a case of free trade. Sm Dox,wn Seamm, of Montreal, has not been as workabe a member of the Dpminion House as is desirable to the now Premier, so Sir Donald is shelved by his appointment as High Commis. stoner in London, England, whose statutory salary is $10,000 per annum with free house, &e. &c. While Sir Donald Smith is a broader minded gentle- man than his predecessor, Sir Charles Tupper, we would like somebody to tell us what earthily use this high paid and pampered official has ever been to this Dominion anyhow ? Would we suffer if a card wee put in the London office window "These premises to let ?" We don't think so, and consequently for one we are opposed to the big salary in the first place, and to the endless coutin- 980010s to the Commiseioner, The Auditor General's Report of 1805 gives a few til bits amounting to nearly 911,000, among which are the following ;—Official residence alterations and repairs, 9178 ; attendance to lift, 965 ; ground rant, 0020 ; carpets, 9104 ; insurance on furni- ture, 912 ; cabs and travel, 9180. Hard times or easy times make 110 differonoe to these nabobs who live in top notch style while the poor '.axpayer sweats for it. Sir Charles had always plenty of time to take occasional trips back to his "beloved" Canada, at our expense, and business went on at his office just the same as when he was there, It occurs to us that in thie democratic age the electors of this Dominion should express tnemeelves freely and fully on this question and a good many other forms of gross extravagance that we will refer to subsequently, changed ; cars gaoled at 011 to 911,25, Hoar. Jim. annexe, who by the grace of Jndgo Elliott, was M. 1°, for London in the Parliameutaay term now closed, has received his reward by his appointment to the political infirmary—the Senate— where he will rest from his labors at au annual salary of 91,000. It is expected that his successor iu London will be Chas. S. Hyman, the popular Liberal candidate for that city. Paartaae the Wiogham Advance editor who is always so ready to explain Dr. McDonald's thoughts, words and actions, would devote a paragraph to tell the electors of East Huron Mr, Dickinson's geographical position regarding the much talked of Remedial Bill. Some of his friends say he will pledge himself to vote straight against it and others say they are sure he will vote strelght for it in support of the stanch taken by Sir Charles Tupper. Which will it be ? THE political machine does not always work the way it is expected. At a recent meeting of the Executive of East Huron Conservatives it was decided by vote, so it is said, that R. L. Toylor, Brussels, was a fit and proper person to act as Ite- turuing Officer for this Riding at the coming election, but when the official an- nouncement is made it turns out that Wm. Clegg, of Winglram, has received the appointment. Ur. Clegg is a first- class man, but some folks say that he was not even an applicant. Wonder when Brussels tarn will come ? x _ Soar; people are professedly very much afraid of Hon. Wilfrid Laurier, assum. ing the Premiership of this Dominion because Protestantism might suffer. Such hypocrisy, in the light of the work done by the Government ab its last ses- sion, is enough to make King William turn over in his grave. In the fare of prophesyed shirking foretold by his op- ponents, Mr. Laurier arose in the dignity and manliness of his character and took the strongest ground possible in his op- position to the Remedial Bill and this in opposition to arguments made by bis co -religionists. The eyes of the public have been opened this year and many now know the difference between wishy-washy sentimentality out of the House and open and flagrant violation of all promises for party purposes while Parliament is in sessiou. "By their fruits ye shall know them" is as safe a criterion now as in the days of old, and as for ourselves we think Protestantism is safer in the hands of an honorable man like Wilfrid Laurier than an unscrupa. Ious leader such as Sir Charles Tupper bas again and again proven himself to be, IlQpe Way A 1 dO11fi .i 'flit" W'i;OUTAIAIf CASE Ill's iU 1, III1,1, 'no l0ucterTe04 Orr Taint Icor Trouble -was S'11D0nnintiair of the liulrolx++ '#t'lt000 1)0805 ;lope 5r ueeovoyy—ENt Werth aYas4lipust niVi10111eueI,y 10e, stored,. Prom the Mottlsb;irg Iterate, Mrs, hill, wife of Hobert Hill, of Win elioeter, not many Months ago was looked upou as one whose days were numbered. 7.o.day she is a handsome, healthy woman, showing no traces of her former desperate oanditioe, and it is therefore little wonder that her ease has created a profound eensatiou in the neighborhood. TO a reporter who called upon her ll1'rs,. Hill expressed a willingness to give the story of her illness and recovery for publication, and the told it with an earnestness that conveyed bo the listener. better than mere words could do,her deep gist#tads to themedicine hi had brought about her restoration to health and etroogth. "I feel," she said, "almost like one raised from the dead, and my case seems to me little short of miraou- loue. About a year ago I .was confined, and shortly after I was taken with molter in the mouth, and suffered terribly, Al. though I had good medical attendance I did not seem to get better, In fact other complications set in which seemed fast hurrying me to the grave, I grew weak- er and weaker until at last I was confined to bed where I lay for three months. My bowels were in a terrible condition, and at last the doctor said he could do no more for me as with the other compli- cations I had consumption of the bowels. My limbs and face became terribly swol- len, and my heart became weak and my blood seemed to have turned to water. I became simply an emaciated living akele- ton, At last the doctor told me that .I WOES beyond the aid of human skill, and that further attendance on his part would do no good. One day sometime later my friends stood around my bedside thinking every moment to see rue breathe my last, but I rallied, and at the urgent Bolieit. ation of a friend it was decided at this apparently hopeless juncture to give Dr, Williams' Pink Pills a trial. In less than two weeks a slight improvement had taken pleas, and from that out 1 slowly but surely progressed toward re- covery, until, as you can see for your. self, I am once more a healthy woman, It is impossible for me to express how grateful I feel towards Dr. William's Pink PiUs, which under God's bleseing have restored me to health and family and friends. I feel that the world should know my story, so that some other suf- fering sister may be able to find health in the medicine which I believe will never fail" The experience of years has proved that there is absolutely no disease due to a vitiated condition of the blood or shat- tered nervus tbat Dr, Williams' Pink Pills will not promptly curs, and those who are suffering from such troubles would avoid much misery and save money by promptly resorting to this treatment. Get the genuine Piok Pills every time and do not be persuaded to take an imitation or some other remedy from a dealer, who, for the sake of the extra profit to himself, may say is "just as good" Dr. Williams' Pink Pills make rich, red blood, and cure when other medicines fail. mPt SSmr.,m Ms31%YmTS, Full Wheat '78 74 Barley. 30 35 Peas 47 48 Oats 20 21 Butter, tabs and rolls ... 12 18 Eggs per dozen 8 8 Flour per barrel 4 00 4 50 Potatoes (new) 12 13 Hay per ton 11 00 12 00 Hides trimmed 4 4i Hides xough 3 8- Salt per bbl., retail...,1 00 00 Sheep skine,eaoh 60 75 Lamb skins each 15 40 Apples per bila 1 00 Hogs, Live 8 50 8 75 Dressed Hogs 4-00 4 50 Wool 18 20 Loxnov, Eng.
