R. has been handled ao efefently in . times previous_ that it would only be telling a tale that fuss often heel} told and b ones better able to wield the pen to do wonderful'expanae of country jostle than I tun, yet I think there is one thing which ought to be mentioned that is, the oivittyy and attention one meets from the omioiala of the 0. P. R. I never name aoorcee a finer lot of men employed on any railway either in lling- and,Canada, or the States. I purchased my ticket from the 0. P. R. agent God- erioh, who furnished me with all details incidental to travelling a long dietsnee and also assured me of every comfert and attention possible. I meet oonfese he did not overdraw in any ease. The care were clean and unimpeachable. We arrived in Vancouver on time though it appeared we travelled very slowly over the prairies. The care on arriving at Vancouver make connection with the Steamers (owned for the C. P. R., for Seattle and Tacoma. The B. 8, Premier on theday I arrived in Vancouver, woe away with a large company including Governor Stanford pioknioking, how• ever the steamer returned some two hours late and embarked passengers for the South. The Premier is built on the American plan and flies the "Stars and Stripes" but withal she is English from trunk to keelson, the officers are considerate and attentive, first plass meals are served on board for the nom- inal sum of fifty cents. An officer of the U. S. Customs remains on the boat always, so the baggage is examined en route. We sent a day in Tacoma and had enough of it. The rainy season had just commenced and the mud in the roads was level with the side -walks and in many places was out of sight. The authorities are doing what lies in their power to improve this state of af- fairs, at this late hour of the day they are planking the prinoipal thorofares and the herons of the pink and shovel work all day in their yellow oil -skins in the merciless rain which falls incess- antly. These sights sadden me so I hie me back to the "Fife House" and take mine ease at mine inn. At last the time has come for the cars to leave for Port- land, I shake the mud of Tacoma off my boots and board the train. Right here one would notice the petty pompous officiousness of the Northern Pacific Railway menial, their ill manners form a sad contrast to the officials of the C. P.R. Midnight brings me to Centralia. I will stay here for a couple of days and am hospitably received and entertained by a Congregational minister. Cen- tralia is 51 miles from Tacoma and is a booming town. Two years ago it had 600 inhabitants, to day it has 2,400 ; there are some good hotels being put up, plenty of churches of mostly all denom- inations. Centralia owns two banks which do an enormous business consider- ing the size of the town. Private dwell- ing -hooses are being put up rapidly a- mong the groves in and around the town and it altogether forms one of the most pisqueresque towns I ever now in my life. I bade my kind host and host- ess anien and am on my way to Port- land once more, on my arrival here I find I have just got time to board the ferry for the San Francisco cars. I am hustled aboard and the first thing that strikes my eye is the three little kero- sene lamps to light the long car. • These lights are not sufficient to illuminate the oar, they only serve to bring the dreariness into closer relief.

And "thepa's my sentiments too" The scenery along the route is en- chanting; it is far ahead of the sombre grandeur of the Rockies. Here we have cultivated fields and orchards of all kinds running almost to the foot of the hills. Some wonderful feats of engineer- ing are to be seeh here, notably the loop. Here it forms] a complete loop, the lines crossing one another and from the higher track one can look down and view another train running over and ander the line one has just travelled. High trestles over ravines that make one dizzy to look at the rushing water nearly 200 feet below,them, and anon along precipices with the Cascades one sees, ever passing along the route. Mount Shasta is plainly visible 100 miles away, covered with the eternal snows. The altitude of the Mount is 14,442 feet and is at the junction of the Coast and Sierra Nevada ranges. Mount Shasta and Yosemite Valley are two summer resorts at a distance of 340 miles from Frisco. The big trees some of which are 30 feet in diameter, and 300 feet high, and Yosemite Valley are the natural wonders of California, We reach Sacramento, the state capital 90 miles from San Francisco. This is a city of 25,000 inhabitants, on the banks of the Sacramento and American rivers. From Sacramento until you reach the summit, on the Sierra Nevada Moun- tains, 7,017 feet altitude, the ascent is very perceptible. You pass through thriving villages, fruit orchards and mining scenes along the route. Once more "all aboard" for the Golden Gate City,wbich is the ninth city in popula- tion in the United States, and is reach- ed from Oakland by ferry. The value of real and personal property is consider- ably over $300,000,000. There are 1,180 streets, avenues and alleys and 26,000 buildings. There are 127 churches in various parts of the city, Catholics take a lead and then Methodists and Presby- terians. Value of school property is over $1,300,000. It has six first-class theatres and opera houses, four Chinese theatres and over twenty other places of amusement. Its system of fire de- partment supasses that of any other city in the world. The Palace Hotel is the largest in the world ;" 168 news- papers and periodicals published daily and weekly.

To the Editor of the Clinton Neon Era. DEAR SIR. -Here comes No. 3, but not as a bee, Lo, it comes as a link of No. two, 0, my truths and thoughts altogether be Too many for No 3, not too few. The wide, wide world -too great, too great for me, To choose niy truths and thoughts thus to rebute • To a brother, before -the world most free : But it's my Lord's providence, not my _ fate. The Lord God- said -to the first lord of this world, "Because thou hast heark- ened unto the voice of thy wife,' ar,d hest eaten of the tree, of which I com- manded thee, saying, Thou shall not eat of it : cursed is the ground for thy sake ; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life ; thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee ; and thou shall eat the herb of the field ; in the sweat of by face shall thou aat bread, till thou return unto the ground ; for out of it wast thou taken : for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou re- turn." Truly, the disobedience of the first lord of this world is the first cause of all hard labor. Yea, his sin is the first cause of all evil in this would : 0, the fruits of his sin in number be, Even like the sands upon the sea shore; To -day only a fraction of them I see. Alas, alas; they increase more and more : Poverty is only a small fruit of his sin. His sin is truly the first cause of all poverty. Not only of the poverty of the ground to give forth blessed fruits freely, without bard labor. But also of the poverty of the soul, of the spirit, of the heart, of the mind, and of the whole being of his offsprings in this - world. 0, where is the soul, the spinit, the heart, the mind that give forth truths and thoughts like a pure river of the water of life, clear as crystal from the throne .of the Lord God therein. This kind of poverty is a most woful fruit of the firstisin. This kind is the most woful poverty against which I strove for over 30 years. Even as I write thesd*thoughts and truths, this kind is upon me like a. night -mare - like to over come me -so that you might not see No. 3. This reminds me of what the Lord God said to the serpent, "I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed : it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel." And this truth reminds me of my stand up for the new era of this whole world. I took my stand in mother Eve as an enemy of the serpent for tho sake of the first lord of this world, who through her disobeyed the Lord God. But his representatives in the field of conflict, drove me out of Eve, as they drove -me of the literary field, and out of their social circle. Then I took my stand in theseed contend with the serpent he o man, there- innI mfgg and with his seed -even for the re- demption of this whole world. Herein it seemed as if the serpent gat ered•his seed from all ends of the rth, and from the pit of endless dar ess, and to destro even from the heavens.Y me -soul and body that I might never live again. Yet, here I am again, alive, though poor and needy. But with all the redeemed on earth, I can say, "we khow that we are of God, and the whole world lieth in wickedness. And we know that the Son of God is come and has given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life." Tnis knowledge is true riches, It will in- crease more and more -even in im- mortal glory. Correction -in No. number two, it reads, the rich shall no more be rich, it should be, the sick shall ,no more be sick. We all make mistakes, through the sin of ' the first lord of this world, find through our own disobedience to Jesus Christ, the second Lord of this world. He is the seed of the woman. In Him I took my stand -even for this world from the reign of the serpent. He became poor that we might be made rich. From his hand this great riches I re- ceive, With the poverty of my mother Eve. And you, with the poverty of the press, All other vines and trees. at remarkably low prices. Prices of any other fruits given upon application. E. T. HOLMES, New Era Office, Clinton THE COMING COMET.

While trade in Canada has been as dull during the past year as Seaforth on a rainy Sunday, a few figures from Bradstreet's give an idea of the im- mense volume of business done by Great Britain during the same period. Croakers who believe that free trade would send Canada to the bow -wows might ponder with profit over them: "British foreign trade in 1889 was the largest known. The total import and export trade was valued at £675,677,000 nearly £9,000,000 more than the largest previous total on record, that of 1883. Imports aggregated £427,535,000 in value, a total never surpassed. The ex- ports aggregated .£248,097,959, and were only exceeded twice previously, viz, in 1872 and 1873, when the demand suc- ceeding the years of the Franco-Pruss- ian war was very heavy. Compared with 1888 the import trade showed a gain of 10i per cent, or not quite double the rate of that in exports which was 6 1-6 per cent." R. ADAMS. MOTHERS?
