' HESORIT• P UtTY 7;ItYNGa TO PISEYENT
THE_ SMXQ'AL Ql ' THE CATTLE
MI6 Grit, Opposition at Ottawa are
pl:tying'ti, desperate game indeed.- A
fav days ago Mr. John Charlton, one
of the leaders of thin Grit part* was
caught red handed in the act of offer-
ing 'advice, in letters over his own
signature, to the American Govern-
rnent,,;`as to the course which the
'•A
nxeri,gtl:n Government should pursue
to 'injure 'Canadian interests, and to
hiing Canitcla to her knees in tariff
matters. These letters were published
by the American Secretary, of State,
"aitd,=;11Ir, Charlton's conduct was con-
demned by every independent journal
in .the -Dominion, as treason to Cana-
dian,interbsts. The only excuse offered
at all in palliation of Mr. Charlton's
offence—and it was an offence so grave
that:ik ought to drive hies forever horn
public life and brand him a.; a traitor—
was that» Mr. Charlton's own private
business interests, 'his limits being in
'Canada and his mills in the United
States; impelled him to the willingness
which he displayed to sell his country
in the hope of adding a few dollars to
his ,already great wealth. But recent
conduct upon the part of the Grit party
in Parliament, seems to conclusively
show that Mr. Charlton's act was only
a part Qf a general scheme to injure
and discredit Canada -for the purpose
of securing a miserable temporary
ray advantage.
Or readers are aware that owing to
'agorou)S painstaking action of the
ion Government, Canada secured
she=removal of the British ein-
.to against her cattle. In con-
-Sequence of this we enjoy the privilege
of 'sending our fat cattle alive to the
British market towns, and onr stockers
t to the British pastures there to be
fattened, while the cattle from the
• United.States were scheduled and had
.to be slaughtered almost immediately
. upon their arrival at British ports.
-This was •an immense advantage to
Canadian cattle raisers. Indeed, in
the report of Mr. Dodge, Chief Statisti-
cian of theDepartment of Agriculture of
the United States for the year 1890, the
advantage was said to be worth from
$5 to $10 per head upon every Cana-
dian bullock sold in the British market.
Under these conditions the Canadian
British trade grew to enormous propor-
tions. with correspondingly enormous
gains to Canadian producers.
It was only after the very greatest
effort that the Canadian Government
succeeded in securing this concession,
and in order to secure it they had to
first demonstrate to the en tire satis-
f action of the British Government that
no traces whatever of pleuro -pneu-
monia existed 1 in Canada, and. second
to agree to the 'maintenance of a rigid
quarantine against the Americans,
many of whose bends unfortunately
are diseased. Among British cattle
raisers this concession -1 o Cantata has
always been looked upon with great
disfavor; and year after year a very
strong feeling against allowing this
competition with home-grown cattle
has grown up in the rn herland, and
pressure has constantly been made to
have the privilege withdrawn. A
little Iess than two years ago the
British authorities responding to that
pressure and scheduled our cattle,
giving as a reason that two bullocks
had been taken over. in the ste iniships
Htlronia anis. Monkseaton, 'being ship-
ped from Pilot Mound, Manitoba,
affected with pleuro -pneumonia. Once
more, proinpt and vigorous action; vas
taken by the Canadian Government;
t 'herds in the neighborhood frorn
w eh the two - bullocks said to be
a cted, were shipped, ware thorough-
ly amined, and were shown to be
absolutely healthy. Whether these
two bullocks actually had' pleuro-
pneumonia has never been settled,
there being a very great difference of
opinion atnong experts, though the
weight of testimony it seems to us has
been decidedly against the contention
of the British Board of Agriculture. To
show that even the authorities there,
are in doubt, it is only necetisary
to quote the langua'ge • o1? Me.

upon .the part of the Government,
every .true Canadian hoe been nxttde to,
rejoioe within the past few weeks at
tbe news that success for the Canadian
contentions had been So tar secured,
that the Marquis of -Ripon, Secretary
fur the Colonies, had reported to the
British Government in favor of allow-
ing the spring importations from Can-
ada this year to be brought in free from
schedule, and if plenro pneumonia was
not found to exist in these importa-
tions, that the schedule should be abso-
utely removed. Now comes the das-
tardly part to which the Grit politicans
n parliament have lent themselves,
Just as soon as success seemed to he
ssured that moment these Grit poli-
icians began their traitorous work,
willing as they are to do any amount
f injury to Canada so long as by the
oing of it they have a chance to injure
he Government. Mr. Mulock was
elected for the task„.and on Wednes-
ay last he did his dastardly work by
noving a resolution of censure upon
he Government, charging there with
ot adhering;, to a stricter system
f quarantine and of thus being
he cause of our cattle being
cheduled. What does this acct
f Mr. Mulock's mean? It -Means
his, that Canada having just
bout succeeded in removing the only
ason that ever was advanced by the
ritish authorities for the scheduling
our cattle .the Grit party in Parlia-
ent immediately proceed to suggest
other reason, namely, that of care-
ssness upon the part of the Canadian
overn►llent. That is, that while
euro -pneumonia does not exist in
;anadra, as Mr. Mulock and those who
oke in favor of his resolution were all
mpelled to admit, by alleged want of
re upon the part of the Canadian
overninent in their quarantine work,
r herds plight possibly have become
cted. In other words, Canada
ving won upon one point—the only
int thus far involved in the case, Mr.
ulock by means of his resolution
ggests to those in Great Britain,
ose interests are against Canadian
ntentions, another means of throw -
g new difficulties in our way.
As to the quarantine itself, it is
ssihle that in this quar'antineservice
in every public service of every
vernment, some individual officer
y have been remiss in his duty, but
)n the whole the utmost rigidity was
ered by theGovernmeitt and exercis-
by its officers, a rigidity so great
eed that the Government were
asked right and Left by Grit news-
ers, who declared that the system
s utilized to destruct trade and to
.ass the Americans and make them
riendly and hostile. But be this as
av, let our readers remember this
t that the British Government have
n carefully watching our systems of
rantine, that every phase of the
ject has been discussed by the
tish Board of Agricultu, e with all
papers and facts before them and
t the Board of Agriculture has never
one moment insinuated that onr
rantine work was not thoroughly
effectively done. In all the volum-
es corrospondence which has taken

a1 authorities, no carelessness has
n even hinted at, the only question

two bullocks were diseased or not,
s to whether our heards were

t be remembered too that these two
cks that were said to be affected
ot come from the parts which Mr.
ock declares that carelessness bas
shown, but from Manitoba, thou-
s of miles distant from the ports to
h he referred. To show how anx-
Mr. Mulock was to make a point,
hich to injure the Canadian case,
only necessary to add that the
ges of carelessness with which he
were many of them of a period as
to as eignt or ten years ago, while
cheduling was done as we have
less than two years ago, showing
that there was no possible ton-
in between the alleged careless -
and the action of the British
rities. There cannot he the lehst
t it seems to us that the desire of
Mulock and the Grit politicians in
.mens who supported him in his
ition, was merely to strike •a
at the Government by pre -
ng them winning in their long
gee to have the schedule removed,
se tueir success meant, as we
said, a lessening of Grit chances
ffic•e. In a nutshell, the whole
is this: the Government have
bout succeeded in convincing the
h Board of grieulture that the
ns given fotplacing an embargo
st Canadian cattle in 1802, were
ood and tangible reasons. No
r have they done this than Mr.
k seeks to supply the element in
Britain which is opposed to Can -
contentions, with a new reason
the embargo should be continued,
in the history of the Canadian
ment has a more condemnable
raitoreus attempt been made to
the country. We sincerely
that it may not succeed, but
ng as we do the str'bnght Of pre-
existing in -some quarters of
Britain, we are convinced that

reason of the action of the Grit

The next week Cousin Mark /arrived
and 1 liked hits at once. Au Utletap;
marriage would have been the last t.uu

though he didn't look it, and as imus,
and as fresh in his Huy ;1s the lutl

bright little woman whom Jennie deter
alined he should marry. -
•'1 was surprised you should think i

ter, as she stood by Ids side look
ing out of the +viudow. "The
idea of my being so ri
diculous!" and fon the same breath with
a wink at Ina, "Conte, let us go to my
sittiug-room, We are at work there, but
it won't make any difference to you. will
it?"
Of course Cousin Mark said "N,,"
promptly, as innocent as a dove auout
the trap being laid for him. -
'Phis is my cpusin, Mr. Lansing, Miss
Kent,"
air. Lansing bowed politely, and Miss,
Kent rose, dropped her scissors, blushed
and sat down again. Cousin Mark pick-
ed up the refractory implements, and
then Mrs. Carlisle proceeded, with rare
caution and tact, to her labor of love.
Cousin Mark, ether request, read aloud
an article from' a magazine, drawing
Miss Kent into the discitesion as deft-
ly as was ever a fly drawn into the • web
of a, spider.
"Who ie that lady, Jennie ?" 'Cousin
Mark inquired, in the evening.
"You mean Miss Kent?" said Jennie,
looking up front her paper. "Oh, she is
a lady ; I have known her for a long
time. She is making some dreaea for
me now. Why ?"
She seems uncommonly well posted
for a woman,"
Under any other circumstances Mrs.
Carlisle would have resented this, but
now she only queried, "Do you think
so ? and that ended it.
Two or three invitations to the sewing.
roots were quite sufficient to make Cou-
sin dark at home there, and after a
week he became familiar enough to Pay:
"If you are not too busy, I should like

No answer ft•oin Miss Kent.
"1 have beet' a very lonely mai

"but never realized clow lonely the rest

how lonely!" echoed Jennie.
"Now, I mut return to my business
and my boarding house—boarding house
for a mail so fond of domestic life as 1
ata, MissKent,"
Just then we very distinctly heard a
little kind of purr, which sounded very
like n nous of intense sympathy from
Miss Kent.

"Why, Mr. Lansing, what do you

"Wo don't care for folks," said Mark.
"If you will go, we will have a (louse as
pleasant as money can make it. You
shall have birds and flowers and horses,
and all the scientific monthlies that you
want, deuced if you shan't ; and you
shall never sew another stitch fur any-
body but rue. Will you he my wife?"
Just then Jennie and I stepped up an-
other peg, and there was that little old
inaid, woo would not marry the best man
that ever lived, hugged close to the man's
breast who wouldn't Marry the best wo-

opinion is that they remained in just that

"How did you know ?" I asked of
Jennie.
"My dear," she answered, "lay whole

"Why, Miss Kent, what snakes your

upon entering ; "and Cousin Mark, how

To correotly dust a room is not the ac-
complishment of every woman. Instead
of wiping off and removing the dust it
is simply flirted into the air and soon
settles again upon the urtloles which
have just been dusted.
Soft cloths make the beat dusters. In
dusting any piece of fnrniture bogiu at
the top and dust down, tvipiirg p'arafully
with the cloth, which. should be frequent-
ly shaken from the window. If the fur-
niture will permit the use of a clamp
cloth, it will more easily take up the dust
and it can be washed out in a pail of soap
Buds. It is far easier to site work by
ooverittg up flue furniture while swedt,•-
lng Muolt time is required to dust it if
it is left unbovered, and the ductile will
in time give the furniture a dull looe.—
