TRW WYINGAli " TIMES" AND
THS+ PORT. 0P JWTRY.
The.•Wilnjam Times of last week goes'
into a long harangue with reference
to the Minister of Customs constitut-
ing Clinton as a Dort, of Entry. After
introducing the subject, it throws out
the following piece of " taffy :"
" A deputation of the great men of the
town, Met Mr Mewb'nru at the `'station,
made much of him, rode hint up to town,.'.
showed hint the sights, dined lam, wined
' trim, and put hint generally in capital.
humor. Suck treatment resulted ivanuch
good. The report of the inspector leas
favorable."
We are led from thins to suppose
that this is the plan they. take' out in
Wingham to show the practical neees
sity of any request they have to make,
and wish to be granted, , We can, how:
ever, enlighten the Times. man when
we tell him, that the people of Clinton
were not aware 'of Mr, Mewburn's
presence amongst them until -he visit
edesome of the business houses •for the
purpose of .obtaining information con-
cerning their innportation.a So that in
this as well as in some paragraphs fol-
lowing, the Times man has bitten off
more than he can chew. He then goes
on to say that " Wingliam. is ahead of
Clinton and that it has increased,more.
rapidly." This statement,, the Times
,well knows, is far from being true, as
Clinton is admitted by every right
thinking and unprejudiced ''person,' to
be the .best business town, and is justly
called by outsiders,'the. " hub" of the
Bounty. Again it says .` There is, more
wealth in Wingbam, and out: :business'
relations are more extensive." If : the
former statement'be correct,ho* is it
that so many have to pull.•up stakes
and runaway from the piece 4 Inan-
swer to the latter, we would ;'refer thh
Tines to the shipping returns at our
stations. The article next pitches. into.
Mr Farrow, M. P. for North Huron.
cen uring him, because he could not
influence . the Government to• have.
Winghaln made a Port of ,Entry in-
stead of C1nton, giving as its reason,.
that as Winghaur *Tory, and North
Huron a Tory constitiiency; •:rind Mr.
o 'Farrow its member; they should,, in

granted them.. Why,; if •.-the Govern=
merit did such a thing as that, 'the
Grit journals from British. Columbia to:
Prince Edward Island, • would. never
-cease howling until the next general.
election would come and sicken thein.
On the contrary the Government will
grant no request . unless the. require-
ments contained therein are shown to
to be a practical necessity, and. a• Port`
of .Entry in, Winghaiu .is not,' which
Mr. 141ewbarn, the inspector, well
knew. The Government is working
' for the best 'interests of the. nountry=
not to accommodeateTory. •friends -and
why blame Mr. Farrow for not obtain
iug, what • is not really' needed. The
Tines lastly warns the Wingham folks!
" To treat Mr. Mewburn better the •
next time he comes round:" "'Churls,"
it says, " cannot expect to have gifts
heaped upon them." 'Yes, -it would be
a good idea. take around a subscrip-
tion list Mr. Times.and get 'him up an
oyster supper .when he• 'does, • come
around. If it doesn't have• any influ
ence on Mr. Mewburn's •opinions, yon
will have the satisfaction, of having the
" feed." •
facturere select careful farmers who.
own flat landsand make them eomo-
thing lime the following propositions :
That the farmer make a careful esti-
mete of his average craps, .and the tile
manufacturerproposes to furnish the
tile necessary to drain thoroughly the
lends designated in the agreement, the
farmer to furnish the labour of putting
in the drains at..a stipulated price, to. be
paid out of the excess of crops grown
on the land over and above the aver-
age yield before agrbed upon, and the
tile manufacturer agreeing to take the
balance of the increase of four 'or five
crops (as agreed,) to cover the cost of.
the tile. On level lands, where the aver-
age crop in five years runs, low and the
land by nature is rich, it • is a safe pro-
position for the tile manufacturer if the
farmerhonestly preforms his part of
the contract. ' On rich level land, that
need drainage andneed. it badly, it
will pay twenty-five per cent. annually
on the investment, and i i some inst-
ances more."

CLIN2'0H THE MIST MARKET.
The following letter to the Serve last.
week,from a farmer in Goderich Town-
ship, shows that the farmers in that
township know that Jlintbntakes thelead
.as a grain market and is a good,prac-
tical testimony to that effect :—
Mr. Editor :

We will give one of the .beet Singer

world for 50 subscribers: No BI rTgR

This Machine is a genuine Canaclia,a
Singer and we guarantee it a nicer look-
ing and better than any' other Singer
machine made. This is a special good
chance for young ladies who wants' a
first class sewing machine, and at the
same time give your gentleman friends
the bestsaewspaper published north of
London.
The agent of this machine will pay
$,5 up to $10,. according to the price to
any person 'sending them the address of
parties who will bay. This is an ad-
ditional' chance for. a lady canvassing.
to make money.
Now dear young ladies, get a horse
shoe and, -start out and «make every
yonmg man you meet take the Recoup,
it will do them good. We will wish
you luck and plenty of it.
Six, --Would you kindly allow me a
small'space in your valuable paper, in
which to communicate to the business
men of your town that which we con
eider .a " grievance." Doubtless, gen-
tlemen, you are cognizant of the fact -
that during the past grain season your
markets have been considerably' lower
than Clinton. About' twoweeks ago
we were:. engaged in teaming' grain,
some to Goderich and some .to Clinton,
and- upon comparing prices found that
the latterwas in excess 6e., on both
.wheat and barley. Now, •gentlemen,
Goderich hasalways been our market,
'.tciwn anil-'we-du ..ut-desire -to deterior-
ate it in'any. way, but what.we'mean
to say is, we don't get. p' fair play.
It would amply repay the business men
to come forward• with an .advance of
,2c; a bushel ongrain,'as n present to
the buyers. You talk about a rail-
road from St. Thomas. Well, tbe' first
cargo you ship will doubtless be • all
those " little' monopoly .'grain . buyers."
Weare Situated about an egir'tl- dins=
Lance fromboth markets, but the roads
are preferable to Gode rich, and. it
is
-there we wish to 'cleat, but for reasons
herein mentioned•we are compelled to
go elsewhere .Thbre is scarcely a day
passes that there are 10 or 11 loads
pass' here that previou%ly>went to God
erich, and further,.. I can mention :7
or 8 farmers besides myself who had
600 •or700 bushels of 'wheatand all
has'. been sold. in Clinton... This is the
precise position in which' we are placed,'
and no liberal minded man can' blame
us for acting as.we'have done. Thank-
ing you for 'your space, Mr. Editor; I .
remain' • ` Yours, Ste.,,
FARMER.
