ik HURON EXPOVT011.
Mr. Priligle's Last Letter.
- Sin: In My lad letter I allowed the
necessity that farthing should be pro-
tected- Some may say the losses were
caused by the fall in the markets, but
had we consumed -our own and not
taken the risk the losses would not have
been made. Besides flour Bells relative-
ly much higher for home use than it
does for export. You are aware in
• 'every town in Ontario the price rules at
. least 75e per barrel higher than in the
- Montreal market, and flour sold in the
- Lower Provinces from the American
wheat is sold at least 75 cents above its
export value. If the same was export-
ed and went out of condition it might
have to.iell at half price for making
starch, and come back to us in cheap
prints at 10 cents a yard. I also show-
ed how the purchasing power of the
country could be increased at least
$1,000,000 per annum by imposing a
duty of 70 per cent. on industries suf-
ficiently eetablished to supply- our
wants, without adding to the cost of
consumers, or effecting either the rev-
enues of the country or our, English
trade. The competition being wholly
- from the other side the duties would be
more than made up •by increased
purchase of other dutiable goods. There
are other industries, such as sugar, salt,
and woolen goods that it is the duty of the
Government to adopt differential duties
against the Americans, if we can supply
our wants as cheaply from England.
There are industries, however, such as
coat and iron, that must be bought in
the cheapest market at present, or it
would stop the industries that are now
in a healthy state, and would add
greatly to the burdens of the poor.
England and Canada must adoptia
policy of self defence against the Amer-
icans. The Globe counsels us to bear
with them until they find out the errors
of their ways. But when does a hungry
eagle cease to devour its prey? Not
until it gets it consumed—so will the
Americans act towards us. The bolder
the policy we adopt towards them the
more they will respect us. They are
the most dependent nation ot the face
of the earth. All we have to do is to
fight them with their own weapons.
Shut them up and they will devour
themselves. This country has declared
they shall live off us no longer. The
Globe calls it selfishness, but what right
has any, Government to be anything
else. They are there to guard the in-
terests of the country. A nation can lose
money as well as an individual. The
man who continues doing a losing trade
is dalled a fool—why should not a Gov-
ernment that persists in pursuing a
wrong policy? The Americans depend
on England for a market for -about 300,
000,000 annually. England does not -give
free trade in live stock to all nations.
She is not obliged to give it to the
Americans. Supposing she was to pro-
hibit the importation of cattle from
all American ports, what:would be the
result? Canadians would have to
do their trade over our railways
and from our ports. Or, if Eng-
land was to impose a duty of 10
cents per bushel on American grain,
the result Would be the same; our
Allele and railways would thea not be
able to do the work. This could be ac-
complished without adding to the cost
of consumers. The Globe argues that
England cannot live without American
produce. The necessities of the one
country is not greater than that of the
other. Americans want to sell just as
badly as England wants to buy. It
seems the lower prices get they want to
sell much more than they do to buy.
England must !now have learned that
it is much better that her ettople have
money in their pockets although food
of all kinds is high, than have any
amount of cheap food and nothing to
buy it with. In justice to her suffering
people England must protect them.
She has no right to allow the Ameri-
cans to have such advantages, who give
nothing in return. If this policy was
pursued it would be the making of the
Dominion, but it would soon bring the
Americans to their senses, as they are
altogether too shrewd to cut off their
nose to spite their face. Such are my
ideas of the trade question. Politics in
in this country are a grand. humbug.
There is not half as much principle in
either party as in half grain of thus-
terd seed. The Globe and Mail are
simply two joint stock companies form-
ed to make money. The great object
with both is to enjoy Government
"pa -p." The Globe preferred the Free
Trade cry because they expected it to
prove the winning card. The Mail had
to adopt the other, which etroved a
grand one. When Sir John saw that it
was going to -take, like a good fislier-
man, he set his net so as to catch all
kinds *of fish—such a grand haul and
such queer fish never were caught be-
fore. If I had. written to the Mail
purely on Protection, twelve months
ego, the ',letter would have been pub-
lished ; but because I reflected on the
management of the Grand Trunk Rail-
way, the "Nursery :of the Party," it
had to go to the waste basket. The
reason is plain, They knew that Hick-
son was sound in the faith. If he did
prostitute his position smite of the
shareholders of the Mail were getting
the benefit of it. The editor being
hired, to advance the interests of the
Company was not likely to go against
his bread and butter. His bitsiness
was to display as much bunting to
catch the popular breeze as
possible, and well he did his work,
as: Bunting became an M. P. The
Globe was even in a more helpless
position. They would not publish any-
thing in favor of protection, and were
afraid to say anything about Grand
Trunk Railway grievances, ecause
they Well knew that protection was the
only cure. If the humbugs of the
Globe think they can deceive the coun-
try by keeping them in darkness, the
late elections must have convinced :
them to the contrary. The country
felt without being told that a change
was needed, but it is surely a retrogade
step in Reform principles, if darkness
has to become its chief plank. How
much more creditable would it have
been -if, instead_ of deceiving the peo-
ple and trading on the dead issues of
the past, or on the misdeeds of their
opponents, the champion of the rigkts
of the people had red,'essed present
grievances. In Sir John's native coun-
try, three hundred years ago, the mot-
to of the Tories was "Might is right."
Sir John has changed it slightly; it 'is
now "stealing is right," if done in the
interest of the party. The country has
just declared in favor of it, by prefer-
rhi.g a man who will prostitute his po-
sawn to one who is honest, but who
was so stubborn as to stand or fall by a
policy that was robbing the country
wholesale. Mackenzie was not to
blame; his only fault was, he was ,too
good for the party. Not having the
practi •al knowledge of the trade qiies-
ic
tion imself, he allowed the Globe to
lead aind deceive him. A censorship of
• the mass is sadly wanted; it is no longer
free. The members of the fourth
estate, instead of being under the law,
have got above it, with the exception of
the HURON EXPOSITOR, Editors pub-
lish just what they like, and even per-
vert the truth to suit themselves, or
party) They also write on any and
every subject whether they understand
it or not. All that an "honest farmer"
has to do to .become a new -fashioned
Reforeaer, or good Tory, is to take two
opposite papers and be in total dark-
ness. If our high court judges were to
take year about as censors, not trith
the view of prohibiting the publication -
of anything, but rathet to see that in-
dependent writers who think for them-
selves get a hearing through any chan-
nel, it would have a wholesome effect,
if censor had the power. to publish the
names of all papers that made a busi-
ness of perverting the tenth. It is per-
fectly plain that politics are a fraud.
The time has come when we want a
third party, whose motto shall be "the
nationfirst andparty afterwards." There
is no n.ecessity for fighting forever dead
issues; there is plenty of present work
to do. The country is now governed to
death; three-fourths of the machinery
should be dispensed with. The Upper
House is more for ornament than use,
and should be done away with. Then,
1
representation by population, having
served its purpose, is no longer a bless-
ing, but a curse. Two-thirds of our re-
presentatives are not required. The
Local,House should be mede a big
County eocincil—each county and city
should elect its own representative from
among the reeves and councillors elec-
ted, and do away with all election ex-
penses. :Voting should be made com-
pulsory, and all missionary labor done
away with. It was an insult to the in-
telligence of this riding to see so many
paid agents around. There was Haw-
kins, Been Patulloi and Jerry Merrick.
The last was a curiosity; he Said noth-
ing, but thought a great deal. His
mission seemed td be to weep over the
grievances of " ould Ireland" with - his
friends in McKillop. What connection
such grievances had with the Huron
elections is what I do ,not know. This
I do know: such grievances and Irish
feuds have no business to be imported
to this country. There is one great
difference between the two factions in
this' country and the old country. - Had
they worked together there as they do
here, Irish 'grievances would have afl
been'redressed hundreds of years ag .
In this country, no matter how they
fight and kill each other on the 12th of
July, they can march arm in arm td
the polls on the 17th of Septemberi
Mackenzie has learned that it is better
to interfere between a man and wife,
than to act; the peacemaker with the
Irish people. Having been placed in an
awkward position at last election, I
now give fair warning that I will only

election will) is prepared to deal with
present grtevances. Why should the
country in its present depression be
eaten up with drones-? It is ii, strange
rule that does not work both ways.
Official salaries were all advanced on
the strength of good times and high liv-
ing. Why not reduce them at least 20
per cent. from the highest to the low-
est now, when times ere BO sadly
changed. - I have not written for the pur-
pose of pleasing anybody. I hope I have
succeeded. I trust neither you nor
your readers feel any the worse, of my
first or last effort. Yours, &c.,

Death in the Dishcloth:
Dishcloths are not always what they
should be, and may very likely not un -
frequently be a source of disease. The
Canada Madical Record says:
A lady correspondent of the Rural
World, having been startled by typhoid
fever in her neighborhood some time
ago, gives the following advice about
dishcloths: If they are black and
stiff and smell like a barnyard—it is.
enough—throw them in the fire, and
henceforth and forever wash your
dishes with cloths that are white, cloths
that you eau see through, and see if you
ever have that disease again. There
are sometimes other causes, but I have
smelled p, whole house full of typhoid
fever in bne "dishrag." I had some
neighbors once—tlever, good sort 4
folks; one fall fout of them were sick
at one time with typhoid fever. The
doctor ordered the vinegar barrels white-
washed, and threw about 40 cents'
worth of carbolic acid in the swill -pail
and department. I went into the
kitchen and made' gruel—I needed a
dishcloth and looked around and found
several, and such rags 1" I burned
thorn all, and called the daughter of the
house to get me a dishcloth._ She look-
ed around on the table.
"Why," said she, " there was about
a dozen here this morning," and she
looked in the wood -box and on the
mantel -piece and felt in the cupboerd.
" Well," I eta, "I saw, someold,
black, rotten rags lying around and I
burned them, for there is death in such
dishcloths as those, and you must never
use such again."
I took turns at nursing that family
for weeks, and I believe those dirty
dishcloths were the cause of all that
hard work. Therefore, I say to every
housekeeper, keep your discloths clean.
Benefits of Manitoba.
A correspondent of the Christian
Guardian writes the following of a mis-
sionary tour in western 'Manitoba
"After getting beyond the bounds of
our settlements to the north-west, as I
travelled along over the beautiful and
level prairie, I saw before me at some
distance a lone man sitting on- a Red
River cart drawn by an ox. When I
caught up to him I remarked: "Well,
friend, this is rather a lonely country to
travel in.", Immediately we were iu
friendly conversation, and he informed
me that a year ago last June he left
Lancaster, in the north of England, and
came directly to Winnipeg ---went out
