NEWS NOTE$ James Robinson committed /suicide Sat, urday night at Toronto by jumping Into the Don. He was iu destitute cireani• stances and hie wife very ill. James Montgomery, a farmer worth 08, 000, living near Streeteville, hap been core - witted for trial for the' theft of goods from the G. T. It. ws.rehonae, Brampton. • Fifty•one houses and barns were destroy, ed by a tornado in thedistrtot about Liana, Ohio, on Saturday night, Trees and crops were swept away and many people injured. Fred Clements, an Englieltnaan, aged 27, was drowned while fishing in Sarnia. bay on Monday evening. He fell out when at tempting to ohmage seats with his compan on named Jonas. Fierce contests took place at the Honie- stead iron worka. Pittsburg, on Wednesday, between 300 Pinkerton men and a large body of looked -out employees. A number on both sides were killed. The horse Gladiator was beaten at Wind. so r on F riday, and two men who had back. ed him and lost all their money, went into the stable after the race and beat the poor brute unmercifully. The men are to be prosecuted. It is &singular coincidence thatthree sue- oeseive premiere of British Columbia have died in office within the past ten yeara. was attacked by lung disease soon after assuming office, and died in 1886. Hon. office four yearsbefere, died suddenly. He was sucoeeded by Hon. A. E. B. Davie, who In 1886 Premier Smithe, who came into John Robson, who succeeded Mr Davie, died in London on Wednesday, though he was apparently in excellent health when he left Canada. Thus a singular fatality seems to pursue the premiers of'our Pacifio coast province. It turns out that the death of Hon John Robson, Premier of British Columbia, re- sulted fromjneglected injuries of a very corn. monplace nature. Mr Robson was driving in a hansom cab, and accidentally shut the door on his little finger, crushing it. A physician who was called in at the Metro- pole where the Premier was stopping, did not consider the injury serious, and it was not until Dr. George Ogilve, the celebrated speoialist, was sent for six days later, that s it was discovered that blood poisoning had set in. Dr. Ogilvie amputated the finger, but it was too late, and Mr Robson'life paid the forfeit. Rev. Dr. Griffin, of Galt, does not see much to rejoice about on the anniversary of Confederation. In announcing to his con- gregation that July 1st was the date of the church's picnic, he said : "This is not only our picnic day, but it is also a dayof celebration throughout the whole Dominion. I never was in favor of Confederation. I always thought, and atill think, we made a mistake when we joined together. Ontario is a grand Province, rich in everything and outlof debt. If we had been alone we would not have had such a heavy debt over our heads, nor would we have had to pay debts for other bankrupt Provinces. For those that feel like celebrating, let them do so. Those who imagine that the proapect of a "shindy" or election meeting row in Ire- land will frighten Mr Blake are very much mistaken. Mr Blake has frequently had to face noisy and violent mobs at election meetings in Canada. Mr Somerville, the late M.P. for West Bruce, relates that on one occasion when Mr Blake was contesting South Brace he undertook to hold a meet. ing in a Conservative stronghold. The only available room was a saw mill which was open at one end. When Mr Blake be- gan his address his opponent's supporters got noisy and undertook to break up the meeting. Mr Blake gathered a few friends around him, and throwing off hie coat pro- ceeded "to clear out the saw mill," a job which M r Somerville saya was quick] y accom plished. Anotherattempt madeto mob Mr Blake at a meeting in the township of Courtright also failed ignominiously. Mr Blake was quite an athlete in his younger ' days. THE OTHER SIDE. To the Editor of the Clinton New Er. Denver, Col., June 29, 1892 Sia,—In scanning the pages of theEla in sealch of the ever welcome home news, mY eye alighted on an article headed "Notes of a trip weat," in which the writer gave a graphic description of his journey west - 1;5 ard from Chicago, and in which there seemed to be a great amount of blue -natur- ed gloms,. One would infer from reading the effusion, that Denver was an isolated city of garbage proficiency, located in the central part of a destitute desert, without one single charm to recommend it to the pessimistic traveller who illnaturedly and unfortunately found himself within its precincts. The "barren wastes" of Colora- do presented no pleasing outlook for your contributor, but, on the contrary, every- thing put on such aHadetic appearance that all combined to arouse a spirit of dissatis- faction wherever the glance was cast. Now I will not attempt to deny the statements made by our informant, but will only quote a few statisticsrelative tothe resources of Colorado, and show there by the manner in which a city of 150,000 popula- lation may make a showing of prosperity even although it may not be apparent to an individual who can see grand agriculture products from a Rage bush waste in Utah, but with the same advantages in Colorado the equally fertile soil only produces a few animated skeletons." Colorado has an area of 104,000 square miles, and I will .quote only a few of th e principal resources of the date for the year 1890. I make use of those mentioned in the state report for that year, simply be- cause none others of recent date are acces- sible at the present moment. From agri- cultural and horticultural sources, pro- ducts, &c., the equivalent of 344,000,000 were raised in 1890 in Colorado. The mineral output reached $29,881,000. Coal, 35,751,710; stone, 33,000,000; and from the oil fields flowed 12,500,000 gallons of oil. The wool clip ran up to 10,000,000 pounds tiring said year, since that time Denver as cut off an import of pig -iron to the ex- ent of 1,000,00 tons yearly. Since 1890 rnany large manufacturing establishments aye located in Denver, and to the mind of n intelligent person, Denver looks some- hing like a prosperous city—at least Mr urs, of Toronto, the wealthy hon and teel founder thinks so, and was not afraid o so express his sentiments the other day hen he was looking up a suitable site for largo steel plant in Denver. I will cloae y hoping that the facts and figures given ay be instrnmental in destroying the el- ect produced by your correspondent's un- arranted attack on a State that has a orld-wide reputation for its health -giving nd commercial resources. I ceitainly do ot intend that thie letter of mine shall in ny way be considered a reply to the letter bove alluded to, as I really believe that an newer is uncalled for, and I pertinently Dow the advice following, and ignore the attaok on our State, age not a war of words with an inferior mind . e silent, rule thy spirit well, and you will surely flud will be yoare to titeh enjoy a greater Vibtay, at might be had. in due defeat of imbelleity. goal% Witten, Re ()LINTON MAE/CATS corrected 'every Thursday itteraeois. thly' 1.092f Thursday, July 7.1092, Wheat, old or new 0 73 a 0 79 Wheal spring Qate , 0 70 a 0 73 0 28 a 0 2f3 Barley o 0 86 a 0 45 Peas 0 57 a 0 60' Flour per bal 4 60 a 4 60 Batter .. 0 12 a 0 13 Aggs per lb 0 6i * 0 Qi Potatoes 0 20 a q 25 Pork 5 50 5 60 Ray 10 00 a11 00 Hi es, No. 1 trimmed. ..... 4 00 a 4 05 Hideo, rough 3 60 a 3 60 Sheep Skin 0 50 a 0 70 Apples, per bag 0 60 a 0 90 Wood short 2 26 a 2 50 Wood long 3 00 a 3 50 Clover 7 00 a 7 50 Timothy 2 00 a 2 25 Wool 0 16 a 0 16 LONDON MARKETS.
