'The K,iucardirte •I euieussitsflown,
and perpetrates the`following: "West,
Moron Tories explain that the Grits
Nssy ws had loot of boodle, but we
tldidset have any -nigh -us,"
.! . prominent Grit paper say. the
-National Policy is "discredited".
This in the face of the large muster
'roll of viotoriee that it can be credit•
ted with in bye•elections. Verily,
r-wbom the gods wish to destroy they
Ant make mad. Madness could not
'further go than to say, in the light
of recent elections especially, that
*Ahe .N..P. is "tli+aredited."
`The Globe : "The Conservative
• gains in the country are the most
.difficult to understand.' That rural
iietriots should do worse by the
' Grit policy than the tovvns is scarce•
idly explicable by anything but bri.
k>;'ery." It is a fact that the success-
es of the Conservative party are
mainly attributable to gains among
.the farmers, but that the great mase
•of farmers have been bribed is a
statement too absurd for even the
Globe to have published.
Some express doubts as to wheth-
er lion. John Carling will take his
seat in the Commons. But there is
.no doubt about it. He has a large
mrejority, some 109, of the votes cast
• and.these votes are all on the voters
'lists. The Returning officer cannot
;,go behind the returns sent him by
bis deputies These will give the
'majority named. A sufficient num-
ber of .these are in dispute to re-
duce Mr. Carling's majority to 14
if they are disallowed. The matter
of their validity is at present before
the Supreme Court,
The North Dakota Independent,
eIfnblished at Grand Forks, in re-
ferring to the coat of binding
twine under the McKinley bill
says "farmers are obliged to pay 14
,tents per pound for binding twine
that the previous season sold for 11
scents per pound, and the higher price
prevailed when the twine bayous
gut their raw material at a reduction
°of 3 cents per pound." It isthe
leame tit round ',' in -barley and every
'other article which the McKinley
bi11 put an increased tax upon the
American consumer has to pay the
-increased duty.
Tian'NEW-RECORD when it makes
u mistake likes to own up to the
corn. A weak before the election
we said Hon. J. C. Patterson would
lee elected by at least 100 majority.
It turns out now that Mr. Patterson's
.majority is only 24. There
are possibly two causes which
led to our estimate not being realiz-
ed : A slight relaxing of effort on
the part of our friends and a more
;persistent and 'unecruplous effort on
ale part of our opponents sauced by`
.your prophecy.
An exchange says, "The Liberal
'press of Huron is more influential
than the Conservative press."
-Sometimes this may be the case,
eeometimee it is not the case in West
Huron. The groat Liberal Signal,
of Goderich, used its influence and
the resources of a fertile imagina-
tion in favor of M. C. Cameron
aarhose majority a year ago was 379,
:and that was wiped out Tuesday of
)last week and a majority of 24 given
:lir Hon. J. C. Patterson. And the
rooster with the Cameron plaid on
that was groomed in the Signal
office for the special delectation of
.the Liberals wasn't in it this time.
The battle cry of the Tories in
bleat Huron was, "The National
.Tolicy and no discrimination againat
Britain, our best customer." The
slogan of the Grits was, "Unrestrict-
•ed Reciprocity and discriminatio n
against Britain and in favor of our
tfiorceat alien commercial rival."
The wonder is not that Cameron
was beaten bot that he was not com-
pletely annihilated which he cer-
tainly would have been had it not
Been for the magic of a party name
that Reformers could not believe
was being trailed in the mire of
traitorism as it really was by such
renegade Canadians as Ferrer, of
the Globe, and Cartwright.
Tho clergyman who in one of the
.ity churches on a recant Sunday
declared that "a vote cast for the
.Conservative candidates in the pres•
Sent by* elections was en en40040013
of steal ugs and ,iil'ehin s and All the
abominations of corruption that
government pould,bo guilty of, and

knowledge of the Bible is no greater
than of polities it is, not very pro.
found. The people know more
about how our civil affairs are con-
sdugted than does his reverence.
But then will make mistakes when
they advice about those things of
which they nothing. The clergy-
man 'referred to must have as poor
an estimate of the electors as has
Sir Richard Cartwright who says
they are stupid because they cannot
endorse his stupidity or worse.
The heart of the countrylie sound
right to the very core. Liberal
Conservatives and Liberal Reform.
ers by uniting in the recent ales,
tions have swept the country from
Goderich to Halifax.
The verdict of the country is,
"Nemo me impune lacessit." The
political ,,and commercial traitors
have been sat down upon because
they insulted the intelligence, mail -
hood and loyalty of the people.
We had not calculated on Con-
servative success in East Slmcoe.
That riding never before gave a
Conservative majority. In 1882
H. H. Cook was elected there by a
majority of 138; 1887 l,,e had 74,
and last year Dr Spohn increased
that majority to 207. But victory
is in the air. Conservative success
is catching, and one need not now
be surprised at anything. That is
one need not be surprised at any•
thing in Ontario. In Quebec we
may lose a seat or two. And we
cau afford to lose a seat or two
there. Quebec will be in a bad
way until the virus of McGreevy,
ism and Mercieriarn is purged out
of it.
A member of the United States
Congress has introduced a bill into
the House placing agricultural im-
plements on the free list. He stat-
ed that ho had reason to believe
American manufacturers are ship-
ping their implements to Canada
and Belling them for loss than the
prices charged in the United States.
This is corroborative of what some of
our manufacturers say. And if this
slaughtering can be done with our
customs kat:ifL what __would become
of our Canadian industries in that
line if we had free trade. Why,
they would be wiped off the face of
the earth, and up would go the
prices to an exhorbitant extent.
And they would be sustained by
the gigantic combines and trusts
which prevail on the other side and
which the Americans know so well
how to manage. Our farmers and
manufacturers can easily See what
dire calamities they have averted by
coming out so strongly and deter-
minedly against the unrestricted re-
ciprocity fad.
"-The—Mitchell—Recorder; -in the
hour of disaster to its party ender-
yore, as the Goderich Signal has
done, to find consolation in moral
reflections. The Recorder says that
in his youth Hon. Mr. Chapleau
jilted a young girl he was engaged
to be married to and that She fell
on her knees and cursed hitu and
hoped he would never have chil-
dren. And it is said he has none.
The Recorder moralizes over this
thusly :—"If this story be true, it
of itself explains how Mr. Chapleau
comes to bo such a kicker ; he's a
mule. The mule represents the ex-
treme limit of approved animal
creation. When the great architect
of nature got to that animal, it
would scam he s•ecognized the fact
that he had passed the limit of
desirable creation. This animal,
said the great architect, is the last ;
so contrary and so uudesirable a
brute is he that the fewer the world
has of him the better. As a mark
of my disfavor I will withhold from
him the power to propagate his
species, and ho shall bo called a
male." Would it be going too far
.to say that the writer of the preced-
ing almost libidinous extract in his
attempt to interpret the design of
the Creator, and put words into His
mouth without a scintilla of juetifica•
tion, must be of the Bathe species as
the father of the mule.
-Great excitement has been cau-
sed at Hamilton, Montana,
by the fall of a monster meteor,
which drove itself 200 feet in the
earth, but, protrudes 100 feet in the
air, and is still sputtering and sizz-
ling furiously, emitting sulphurnuh
gases that impregnate the air for
miles around.
