OrIICE Chita Piny Coxa FRIDAY, APRIL 26,1889 The Rush for Laud The st'enus just witnessed at Oklahoma, a spot in the United States. are a striking illustration of the restlessness of a certain portiul, of humanity, who imagine that a fortune 'awaits then in some spot of her than the one they are living in. Oklahoma has been an Iridian 1.3serVO, On the wrong when any method of life provides an excuse for a man's putting an end to hid own exis- trnce. "Speculating in grain" is only one of the many ways that people have of "hastening to be rich," and tho..Good Book sounds a warning on this point which, like many other warnings is en- tirely disregarded. Life goes with a rush, and we suppose it is useless trying to stop it, but the happiest man or community is not always the one that is strain- ing every point to accumulate wealth. Misleading. A Waterloo county well known cattle buyer and exporter, Mr Joe Rellinger, says that he can buy just as good cattle at Buffalo for 4c a pound and at Chicago at $3.65 a hundred; as he has to pay from five to six a dollars hundred for here ? If we had unrestricted reciprocity all the cattle from the Western States would come in direct competition with our own. The more that question is looked at the less desirable it becomes. - News Record. How is it that even without un - borders of K'tlnsa, and Texas, con 'restricted reciprocity the `Western taining several thousand acres Of cattle come into competition with lured, and longing eyes have been cast, towards it by speculators and others, for years past. Some time ago it was announecd that it was to be thrown open for settletneut at noon, on Monday, April 22 nd, and for weeks befin•e that, the whole border has been lined by men who were anxious to settle 1 ',iny "n h 'were un the land. .If m t e men with theirf:unilies,and every outfit necessary to go fight 1ntod ,fll'Initlg ; others were speculators, (ganlbiers, derperadoos, and all the floating classes who are ready for. any turn that promises better, things. The land in Oklahoma is 110 better, nor 11s good, as much of the unsettled land in the Unit- ed States, and there is not near enough to provide for the large number who were ready to enter the coveted territory,and just why So many were anxious to settle in this particular district seems 0 mystery,and can only be accounted . for on the ground that Oklahoma ,has boon "boomed" by 'railroad and land.sharps, and peopleare go easily influenced by ,the'pros- pects of a boom that they are ready to jump at the 'slightest eh.auee of one. That there will be much disappointment is inevit able, but people who expect the sweet must also take the bitter: Ari idea of the rush to this ter- ritory may be gathered by the following telegram from Kansas City: -- "In this region It,,thing is heard },ilt Oaklnhoroa, In the freight yards, 'revile l on the tracks and ender movii,,g orders, are. about thirty latae t rat n-, freighted with the anticipated nt.;.''ssities of the e,>nliee cam urnity.

If the price is higher here than there does it not seem 'ab- surd to export to the cheaper market. Further than this, if cattle sell at Waterloo for $6 a hundred, which wo very much doubt, it is higher than they have reached here, for the best cattle that_have been sold in this neigh- borhood lately,and they were stall fed for the English market only brought $5. Unrestricted reci- procity is the only thing that will relieve the farmers of Canada and restore values to their do- prieciated property, and the bug- bear of competition, with their bretbern across the line, is more imaginary than real. EDITORIAL NOTES. The. familiarity of the editor of the London Advertiser with the origin • of slang ,phrases like` "chestnut," and the proper mean- ing of the word "fake" and "fak- er," reveals,earlyr depravity that is shocking. lion. Mr Bowed has yielded to pressure, and decided not to im- pose taxes upon the inlandfreight on goods, imported from a foreign country. Importers will bo thankful to him for even this small • concession. •e When the Ottawa 'Free Press published editorially, a portion of the 28th chapter of Matthew, it nodoubt had in view the supply- ing of something unknown to the members c>f Parliament. Will some one point out the practical good that has been done by the precut session of the Do- minion Parliament. Any sug- gestions, *made that were good have, iii every instance, been neg- atived. A if Clark Wallace's combines bill passes. the House, wo venture to say that it will be a dead letter on the statute book, for it • will bo utterly impossible to so stipulate its provisions as to reach the class it aims at without also af- fecting others that it was not in- tended to touch. Belleville, Brantford and Lon• don are to get drill sheds and military buildings at a cont of 810,000 each. The, money might be put to a better use. In this county, for instance, can bo found a number of drill sheds, put up with public money, that were hardly ever used for the purpose they were intended for, and are today worthless. The city editor and the political editor of the London Free Press, should hold a conference so that ono will not contradict the other. Tho political editor of that paper is always asserting that there is no market across the border for Canadian produce, but the city editor gives him the lie direct by proving that there is, be stating in Saturday's issue that a certain man had bought on the London market, over 400 pairs of chick- ens and "intended shipping them across the border•.'.' It is terribly awktrard for the opponents of un- restricted reciprocity to be even Consistent. An exchange credits Dalton Mc- Carthy with the opinion that "the government of Sir John has out- lived its usefulness." That has beer; the opinion of a great many people in Canada for some time, and lest they might express it too forcibly, Sir John has resorted to various expedients, such as 'the Gerrymander and Franchise Act, etc. Ever and anon the Conservative papers assort that Mr Mowat uses the License system for po- litical purposes, and when chal- lenged for proof, that they cannot give, they maintain a silence that is profound. Some time ago we showed the untruthfulness of the assertions, and the London Adver- tiser also disposes of them in the most effectual manner, now that licenses have been renewed for another year. In London 48 Conservatives and 24 Reformers hold licenses, while interviews with Conservative hotel keepers show that in no manner whatever has any pressure ever been brought to bear on them political- ly. The same holds good through- out the Province. It holds good in this county, and wo challenge proof to the contrary.

On Monday the flro'alarn9 was sounded, when it was discovered that the roof of Broadfoot & Box's furniture factory Seaforth, was on fire, but extinguished by a few pails of water before any damage was done. The fire originated from a spark from the chimney, which fell among a quantity 'of dust that had accumulated on the roof. A sudden death occurred near Dashwood, on Thursday. Mrs. John Wing, of the Bronson line, went to visit a neighbor, Mr Wm. Wright. She was apparently in the best of health and partook of a hearty dinner. Soon after din- ner she complained of a strange sensation in her hands. The symptoms became worse and par- alysis ensued and in a few min- utes she passod•away. C. B. Barris, a well-known farm- er in Morris, is finacially embar- rassed and his creditors are look- ing after their interests. Paying heavy interest, poor crops and other losses is the cause of the trouble. Mr Harris is neither a spendthrift nor a sharper and has boon a bard worker, but was not able to pull against the stream. His liabilities aro chiefly borrow- ed money on notes. He intends removing to Algoma as soon as his affairs aro arranged. Tbo farmhouse of Robt. Quaid, near Dunlop (Colborne,) lwas de. stroyed by fire at 3 a. m. Satur- day last. Ono of tbo children awakening saw the flames, and at once awoke his parents and grandmother, Mrs Whitely. Mr Quaid sent his oldest son Albert to the nearest village, nearly half a mile away, for aid, and Mrs Quaid showed groat presence of mind in Raving her youngest child. Hopes wore entertained by Mr Quaid of keeping the flames in check by throwing water on the fire, the pump being near at hand, till help came, but it was no use. When aid came little could be saved, as the flames had Train• ed too great a headway, NEWS NOTES Miss Kate Gainsford, of Pres- cott,was burned in het home there on Monday night.

It ;is not known Clow they camp by their death; but it is supposed that they had partook of lye, which had been left in an exposed place. Five hundred thousand bushels of corn were despatched on Fri- day from Toledo to England. It comes by lake and canal .to King- ston, Canada, thence by rail to New York. This is one of the Largest shipments of grain ever made from Toledo. It filled eleven boats, which an left to- gether. It is said that • one-fifth of the land which is compressed in the agricultural districts of Italy- is lying uncultivated, while the re- mainder is so badly cared for that the wheat crop averages only twelve bushels to the acre. One reason of this is the •drain upon the population for the purpose of keeping 0 standing array. An- other I4 the extraordinary emi- gration of recent years. On Friday, 1111 unknown man deliberately laid himself on the rails of the G. T R. track, a short distance west ofChatham,as the west -bound express steamed out from the station.

Last fall Fell vacated For- est when talk about making an ex- ample of him became rife, and the othorday ho showed up again. The father of the girl attacked Fell on the street with a basket of rather premature chickens, and the way those eggs fell was a sight fit for the gods. Fell was plastered with the anciept, and was a sort of walking unisaneo until 110 had the hose turned nn'ih`.msolf. NEWS NOTES. A very painful accident re- sulting in the death of a little girl about four years of age, the daughter of Mr John Leadman, East Nissour'i, occurred Tuesday afternoon, within a short distance of her own door, The child was playing very near to where a boy was removing stone with a team orhorses to which was attached a stone boat, when the team took fright, and truning suddenly around, caused the boat to strike the little girl with such force as to cause almost instant death. In the New York State Senate on Tuesday Mr Pierse asked the privileges of tbe floor for Hon. Oliver Mowat, Premier of Ontario. Senator Murphy objected. He 'said, under the rules a friend of his from New York had been re- fused an admission to the floor, and aside from that he objected to any courtesy being extended to any department of the British Crowd. Mr Irwin thought the rules should be strictly observed. Listowel Banner: Tho saddest event in connection with Tuesday morning's fire was the death on Wednesday morning of Annie Dolph, aged 10' years 6 months and 17 days, through fright. She was of a very nervous tempera- ment, and when the alarm was rung, Wm. Dolph, her father, who lives on Victoria Street, told his family not to awaken Annie as she might be frightened. "You don't need to wake me,I am awake already," was heard from her room and was she soon dressed and down stairs. She did not appear brightened then, but when the flames broke out brightly she be - cams excited and fell into a kind of nervous fit from which she never recovered consciousness. Her death is a direct result of the incendiarism. s . JOHN B. GOUGH'S LAST AND BEST BOOK, 'PLATFORM ECHOES. This new and "splendidly illustrated volume is the last book written by the world-famous"John B. Gough, •and was completed by him just previous to his death. Every one is familiar with the story of his early life, and of Ms rescue from a drunkard's grave, and how this once wretched and despised sot became one of the most famous men of our time. For seven years be stood amid the horrors of delirium tremens„an abject slave to the bottle ; and his condition and wretched appearance were such as to cause people to exclaim, "There's the man who has been in hell." The rich and poor, the high, the low, the learned and unlearned, have been alike thrilled and moved by his burning words. He swayed brilliant audiences of royalty and fashion ; spoke in State prisons, jails, poor houses, penitentiaries,reform schools, and houses of correction ; to the deaf, and dumb, and blind ; to audiences composed wholly of outcasts; and to audiences numbering , thousands of children. At his feet more than ten million,people sat and listened in admi- ration and wonder. In his library may be seen, a sot of large volumes -a far better memorial of his life and labors than any monument . of marble or bronze -containing the original signa- tures of •ono hundred and fifty thousand men and women who were induced to sign the pledge through his personal ef. forts These names -many of them tearjbedewed and written with trembling hand -represent stories of happiness and woe, of ruin and remorse, of blighted, hopes and wasted lives, of battles fought and victory won. Td give some of these thrilling life histories;. depict scenes of joy and sadness ; to lift the curtain on life's stage and show its tragedy and comedy ; and to draw "living truths" from the lessons thus taught, and bring them home to every heart,is the prime object of this volume. It also contains the history of 4,1r Gough's life and career with the story of his death, by Rev Dr Lyman Abbott, the eminent editor and divine. "Platform Echoes" is John 13:Gough in print. In it he has given to the world in permanent form his best thoughts, his Most touching tales, his inost stirring anecdotes and incidents, his most telling stories. As a story teller he has never been equalled. But whether ho narrates a story of mirth or sorrow, it is always to illustrate great and living truths. Stranger stories are here told than romance ever dreamed of, every one of them drawn from real life by a master hand. Now that the silver tongue is silent, "Platform Echoes" is the richest literary legacy of John B. Gough. Tho aroma of his inimitable humor, the felicity of his descriptions, the adroit- ness and skill which enabled him to captivate and then capture hearts on both sides of the sea are reproduced up- on these pages. Its illustrations are the befit we have ever seen. It contains two hundred and twenty-seven fineengravingsby the best artists and engravers in the world. Many cif these illustrations are "too• funny for anything" while others de- pict wretchedness and woe. Sixteen of these engravings are fullpage ones, and are magnificent specimens of art. Two hundred and nine are text illustrations. There ate two line steel -plate portraits. One is from a life-size full length paint- ing, showing Mr Gough as he appeared shortly after his rescue. Tho other is from a photograph taken just before his death. All in all, it is one of the finest ever produced by the American press, We advise our readers to buy Plat - from Echoes' at the first opportunity. They can, in our opinion, mucli better afford to dispense with a dozen other books than not possess this, Once be. gun it will not willingly be laid aside till the last page is finished. BORN.
