for economy by 'referring to the

Hardy claims it is just as good as

months.
And now the dreadful Tories are
eniitten hip and thigh and have the
sword of retaliation thrust through
the very belly band of their breeches
until the poisoned point of the
deadly ilnploment has reached their

inspirers of his now self -con-
fessed infamous attempt to impli-
cate Mr. Camerbu in the porpotra•
tion of one of the most monstrous
offences against society and the
civil and moral codes, will fall far
short of the mark and will not be
believed by any one who know the
gentlemen named or the circum•
stances attending Gore's first charges
and their disclosures. What could
these men possibly know of the
alleged criminal conduct of Mr.
Cameron that they would be in a
position to instigate Gore to snake
his vile charges against Mr. Cam-
eron 7 Absolutely nothing. The
very statement that they wore the
ibstigatora of Gore to publish cir-
cumstantially detailed criminal
charges against Mr. Cameron carries
with it its own refutation. They
knew nothing of Mr. Cameron'
domestic environtuentsl, his man
servants or maid servants ; his bed-
room or his stable. - To suppose so
for one moment would be to dis-
credit the evidences of ones own
eeneee. And they aro geutlonlen
who have neither the inclination
nor questionable ability to concoct
such foul charges against a fellow
citizen. T,he charges, if invented,
owe their paternity to Gore. That
he made such charges publicly hun•

ed them to paper we can teetifiy of
our own personal knowledge, hav•

offered Gore to the value of one

charges against Cameron, wo have
the best of reasons for disbelieving.

quite natural, though we do not

An American paper in a terse
but somewhat homely way illus-
trates patriotism by saying : "The
individual who thinks Nancy Uauks
is "a middlin' fair mare, but noth-
iu' to what Bill Jones' filly down
in our county is goin' to he" is the
truest type of a patriot." The Cana-
dians who can see no good in their
own glorious ooeutry have greater
reason for saying Yankeedom tnay
he a ruiiidlin' fair country,but it ain't
nothiu' to what this Canada of ours
is goin' to be—aud in fact to what
it is now. Puuderosity don't cue
stitute intellect. The size of the
seat of a man's breeches or the girth
of tile wtistbaud thereof is uo
criterion of his prosperity or of his
hap•{iness any more thau the popu-
lous size of country is of the same
elements.
The Herald, a Reform paper of
Hamilton, sounds the tocsin of Cin•
adian doprocietion by remarking:
Why, there never was a nation
since the world begat: that so hunip•
ed ahead in the few short years she
has been in business for heraelf. All
she wants, to do herself proud, is for
her sone to stick up fur her and help
her along, instead of eternally
grumbling and growling because
she is not bigger and better. What
if wo aro having a period of dopreas-
ion now 7 Other countries have had
periods of depression and worried
through all right, and Canada will
come out on top yet. For all the cry•
ing of the aunexationists, we know
that matters are much the eatne in
the States as in this country, while
in England business generally ie iu
a very bad way, and property is de-
preciated in value. For the Lord's
sake let's try and grow a claes of
Can adlane who will take their costs
off and pitch in and help things
along, instead of uttering shrieks of
despair every time the oountry hap -

There is a Grit, paper in Clinton,
by name the New Era. It has be-
come celebrated for its reckless as-
sertions when a "point" can be
made against the Govern ment. Ac•
cording to ita utterances for many
years this grand country is in a de-
plorable state of despoui3ency. The
Editor's recent visit to distant por-
tions of the Dominion caused him
to be convinced that. ono had to
travel to learn of our grand and
boundless resources. Last week
THE NEWSRECORDmentioned about
Mr. Valentine and family, of Toos
water, locating in Clinton. The
Erre says "he stated that it was very
difficult indeed to secure accommo-
dation here—not a bad sign for the
town." Certainly not. Clinton is
a progressive town. And one • of
the reasons is that we have ampl.,y•
ing industries here that fill our
houses. Mr. Valentine secured
work at the Doherty organ factory,
an institution that circulates many
thousands of dollars annually in
Clintou. In the last election con-
test Grit campaigners described this
inriustry as one of the grinding
monopolies, sapping the very foun-
dation and existence of the Cana•
dian people. If the policy of the
Grit party were to succeed, the
working and business people of
Clinton would suffer a very heavy
financial loss. And desirable citi-
zens like Mr. Valentine would not
be hero and our now full houses
would be tenantless. We con-
gratulate the Era on being at last
convinced that Clinton tenements
are well filled and that there is
some prosperity even in Clinton.

The Globe inadvertently rernark•
ed the other day:
"South of the forty.ninth parallel
the farmer has bis nose to the grind-
stone of a 40 per cent. tariff. He is
in the hands of railroad companies,
who take a heaping measure out of

Though the devious paths of crim-
inality may be covered by deceit
and even grass grown through the
rankneas..of the soil figuratively en•
ricked by the poor orphau's life
blood, , the withering blast ,of an
avenging God's veugeunce may yet
sweep away tho most ingenious of
human devices that have so
far successfully covered the ttortu•
nus paths by which ilercriminrif be-
trayer and murderer has escaped
detection. And 'though the statute

derer from receiving meet punish-

Light of irr'ofragablo evidence of his
damnable villainy to the detestation
of outraged public sentiment And
now that the man who of all living
men has alleged that ho knew all
about the history of the crime, from
its very genesia•uutil its cotnpletion
in the death of the girl, ie now
awaiting trial in Goderich gaol for
perjury it is quite possible
when that time arrives that between
tho effort of the Crown to incriminate);
him and his efforts to exonerate'
himself the actual author of
the betrayal and death of
Ellen Lomas may have his sin
and his crime brought home to him,
whoever he may be.
Though misery is said to like com-
pany it is very poor setiefaction to
kuow that othere aro even more
miserable than we are alleged to be.
And yet wealth or poverty, happi-
nese or misery are practically mat-
ters of comparison. Some million-
aires are poorer than the most im-
precunious man who. finds content
amid his poverty. But we will
descend from moralizing to actual
conditions. Canadian professional
calamityites are fond of picturiug
the Canadian fermate as wringing
their hands and gnashing their teeth
in the very lowest inferno of an abyss
of despair because their lands are
not worth as much as they were a
few years ago. And the walls of
their abode of despair have been
supplied by their Job's comfortore
with tantalizing pictures of a peren-
nial bootn in land values across the
border, ever kept green by the fruc-
tifying influences of the starry
banner that. floats on the breeze of
the alleged God's own particularly
and peculiarly blessed country.
But there is another side to this
picture even as there was to Cart-
wright's shield. Recent American
official reports show that in
Genessee county, N. Y., the very
garden of the eastern States so far
as climate and soil aro considered,
and in the very centre of the most
wealthy comtuercial section of the
United States, ninety per cent of all
the farts land is mortgaged, and
that farm land has depreciated in
value thirty-three and one-third per
cent since 1888. And this fertile
porfion of the other half of the con-
tinent to which we belong has free
and unrestricted access to the sixty
millions' market and the beneficial
influences said to emanate from the
star-spangled banner. Canadian
fanners should take heart of grace,
eltake hands with themselves and
enjoy their at least comparative
prosperity when compared with that
of their much lauded neighbors.
In foot they would be justified in
thanking God that they are not as
miserable as "the other fellows"
across the lines are.
Buyers of apples have great diffi-
eulties to contend with in buying.
If they reject what they consider ie
nufit for shipment farmers charge
them with taking an unfair advan-
tage of them, if they good natured-
ly accept this class they are almost
certain to lose on them as they are
found unmarketable on their arrival
in .Britain. A recent telegram
from London, England, says.: "Tbe
arrivals of Canadian applea at
Liverpool are extremely largo, but
the' quality inferior. Really good
fruit sells well." One authority
suggests the packing of them in
smaller packages ae Loxes of 60 'be.
of all good fruit will fetch es much
se barrels where even only a small
portion of the contents is inferior.
That the main market for bosh
Canadian and American apples ie
beyond the Atlantic figures prove
by a large majority. The latest
official returns of the United States
show that the previous year that
country exported 938,000 barrels of
tipples ; while the latest Canadian
official returns shote that we ex•
ported 450,000 barrels. A very
good ehowing for Canada when
with our 5,000,000 people we ex•
port half as many applea as our
60,000,000 neighbors did. But
the point of the application of these
figures as to what country is our beet
-customer lies in the fact -that rho
Americans exported nearly a million
barrels which is proof that they are
not hungering for `our apples other
than to act as middlemen in the export
of them and thus derive the great-
est amount of profit by selling them
to tickle the palates of the consum•
ing public iof tyrant -ridden, effete
old England.
