A COMPACT. .As time goes on it is becoming every day more apparent that the announce- ment made some time ago by Mr. Mc- Carthy's organizer, Mr. Fee, was an announcement of fact. Mr. Fee declared that Mr. McCarthy and Mr. Laurier understood each other and that in the General Election their interests would be together. We have said 'that this is becoming every day more apparent. We need only look to nominations that are being made in various parts of the Province of Ontario. When Mr.. McCarthy imagines he has a man running who can win, the Grit party are as silent as mutes ; and where the Grits think they have a good chance, Mr. McCarthy carefully .abstains from bothering the field. We ask Conservatives whether they are going to be led into any such trap. Masquerading as a Conservative, Mr. McCarthy is trying to create divisions in the Conservative ranks. He is not a Conservative, but the bitterest enemy which the party has in Ontario to -day. He has in the ex- tremity of his political hatred gone back upon every principle which he advocated up to his turnover; he has slandered in the meanest way possible the memory of the Chieftain who gave him his political standing ; and he is now doing his best to wreck every- thing and everybody with whom he was formerly associated. If our Conservative friends in any riding in Ontario shall prove them- selves silly dupes enough to be entrap- ped by such a poorly disguised enemy we mistake their intelligence. There is only •one thing that they possibly can do by assisting Mr. Mc- Carthy -viz., help the Grits. That is what Mr. McCarthy wants and it is just what Conservatives don't want. After the election is over we believe it will be found by Mr. McCarthy that Conservatives have everywhere said to him "your little game was far too plain." KEEPS HIS WORD. Some time before the last session of the House the Minister of Railways and Canals discovered that there was dishonesty in cohnection with the amounts paid to one St. Louis, the con- tractor on the Curran Bridge. He at once ordered a public investigation be- fore three commissioners, and the in- vestigation todk place. Nothing was hidden; everything that had been crooked was exposed to the light of day. During the session the Grits made a great show of investigation by dragging over the ground again before the public accounts committee. Noth- ing new, however, was discoveged and only valuable money and time spent in re -investigating whathad•already been searchingly gone into. When the subject was discussed in the House of Commons, the Minister declared that so far as the Government could prevent it not a guilty man should escape. This was laughed at by the Opposi- tion, their judgment being formed from a knowledge of how they themselves treated their political friends who pilfered and robbed. Was not St. Louis a strong Conservative ? Did he not have lots of Conservative friends ? Was he not even the relative of some high standing Conservatives ? Well, let us see how the Minister of Railways has kept his word : First, the officers 9f the Department who were tampered with by St. Louis have been dismissed. Second, St. Louis has been sued for the amount which he defrauded the Department out of by means of false pay sheets, and third, the same Mr. S. Louis has been arrested as a criminal for his crime. So far so good, everyone will say; and when the courts get through with the contractor it will be seen that the Minister of Railways meant what he said when he announced that "not a guilty man should escape."

A DOWNEY, Manotic, Ont. s' X tx, x 'CWQJ4', ,As the•f ondon election. is just ovexr we are reinincled of the good old purity days, in that city in whit "Ootne along Itshn" flourished, and when there was according to the Reform letters of the day "Lots of money to put down bribery. and, corruption." One of the men who figured ver' extensively in the contest of that day was a celebrate ed Dr. Haggerty; lila evidence at the Col. Walker trial was spicy. He had bought whiskey; treated men and their wives by the hundred ; and been corruption agent in general. For these thinga he was reported by the Courts. The good saintly Grit Government who were in office then --Sir Richard, Mr. Laurier, A. G. Jones, David Mills and others still of the saintly party were there—punished Dr. Haggerty sever- ely, and how did they do it ? They punished him by appointing him to a good fat office up in Portage la Prairie, Man., where he would have a chance to practice his saintly virtues upon the noble red man. Hypocrisy, thy other name is Grit politician TWO OCCASIONS. They Grit politicians sigh for the re- form of the days when they were in power and weep over the want of pro- gress of the Dominion since that time. They always cease their lamentations, however, for a few moments when any figures come out. Recently they have been telling how badly Canada has destroyed her credit abroad and right on top of their state- ment comes the aanouncement of the new loan. Its figures compared with those of the loans of Sir Richard in the halcyon Grit days are instructive. When Sir Richard Cartwright at- tempted to float his heavy loans in England in 1876 he could get only 88 cents on the dollar for 5 per cent. That was the time of doubt and diffi- culty in our governmental affairs such as was never known before and has not been experienced since the Blue Ruin Knight left office, or, as might be truly said, was kicked out of office by the people of Canada. The reason that our bonds now bring a premium of 2 per cent., or 102 cents per dollar in- stead of 88 cents,—a difference of 14 cents on the dollar—is, that then the British investor felt much less con- fideece in the administration of public affairs in this conntry than he does now. THE FADS. The Grand officers of the Patrons of Industry have made a sort of an amalg- mation with the Labor societies of Toronto, and the Labor chaps are urging the Single tax theory, upon the Grand Officers of the Patrons, and Joseph Haycock is, he says, considering the question of the Single tax. This tax theory, every Doctor, every Lawyer, every bank stock, mortgage, debenture and cash owner in the country, hopes the Patrons of Industry will adopt and carry. It is, we should explain, a tax upon land only. If the Patrons of In- dustry wish to adopt this plan, as they will under it pay ninety-five one-hun- dreths of the taxes of the country there is no reason why we -should kick: The men who have been advocating fads, strikes, and what they call "novel ideas," have destroyed the usefulness of labor societies, and they are beginn- ing to do the same with the Patrons of Industry we fear. The Patrons who are in the Legisla- ture might do some good if they would keep at Mr. Mowat and make him yield up some of the appppointments of offici- als that he has stolen from the counties. But by dealing with every fad that professional faddists have to offer, they will make themselves and their organ- ization the laughing stock of the coun- try. Imagine intelligent farmers fol- lowing the lead of such men as D. J. O'Donahue and A. F. Jury. CURRENT TOPICS. When the Government set out to make an honest, careful and well con- sidered revision of the tariff they did not expect to please Sir Richard Cart- wright, Mr. Laurier, Mr: Davies and Mr. Tarte. The only thing these gen- tlemen want is to get into office and nothing else will please them. The Liberal Provincial Governments will make a hard fight against the Do- minion Government next time. There is every reason why they should. Sir John Thompson will promise them no cash. Mr. Laurier has already in Par- liament declared his intention of giv- ing them nearly $2,000,000 more to spend. Why shouldn't they fight for Mr. Laurier? The Australian colony of Victoria has no intention of giving up a defen- sive tariff. In the speech from the throne delivered at the opening of the Victorian Parliament a short time ago it is annouuced that a defence of Vic- torian industries from the keen and de- structive competition of foreigners will he strictly adhered to. The house re- cently elected upon the trade question shows 65 protectionists and 14 free traders. Our opponents a short time ago were fond of declaring that the world had turned its back upon protection. There was no particular evidence to justify even a dream that such was the case. There is plenty of evidence now, how- ever, for the assertion that the world seems to be getting more protection- ist than ever, since the great defeat of the Free Trade cry in the United States follows the defeat of the same party in Victoria, Australia, by 104 to After figuring up the result of the Uni- ted State elections, and by the figures proving that none over four or five per cent. of the Democratic candidates all over the country were elected, the Tor- onto Globe adds as follows : "The out- look is not altogether glooiny for the Democratic party." Evidently the Globe is getting ready to make excuses for a defeat of its own party in Can- ada. But really will the Globe tell us what an "altogether gloomy" condi- tion is, if the condition of the Demo- cratic party is not one. Mr, Madill,. President of the P, is et!alged with havingpaado the state•- tnent that the death of Hen, Gleorge WWII was the outcome of Oatholic hatted, The lamentable death of Mr, .l3rowzt and an the circumstances. connected therewith are too well known to require a contradiction of Mr. Madill'a accusation, if he ever made it, hat if he really did utter such a statement, his friends should take him in charge. The last seen of. _Sia -Richard Cart- wright was on the Ith ult. In the afteruoon of that day he was noticed with several American papers and two or three copies of his speeches upon "tariff reform" wandering off to the woods, either to give up the ghost or to revise his opinions about "free trade" being in the air on this contin- ent. It is said .that Sir Richard had also concealed about his person a tele- gram from a gentleman named Laurier inquiringwhen he could meet the sor- rowful night to fix up a new trade policy. For nearly three years Mr. Joseph Pope, Secretary of the late Sir John Macdonald, has been engaged on bis memoirs. These were given to the public on Monday and as might be ex- pected were eagerly sought after. They areublished in two volumes and give a clear insight into the mo- tives that prompted all theactions of the dead statesman. His biographer had access to all the letters and papers left by him and these have been freely used to throw light on his political actions. Those who desire to get a clear con- ception of the man and his motives should read these memoirs. The Directors of the Eastern town- ships Bank, Que., some of whom are Conservatives and others Liberals, in their last annual report state as fol- lows, with regard to manufacturing industries : "As they afford profitable employment to large numbers of who do not take kindly to farming, they are really invaluable to the country. Not a few cities, towns and villages, would be impoverished and almost de- serted, were the manufacturing indus- tries closed down, a result not unlikely to ensue should Parliament be unfor- tunately influenced by the cry of agi- tators." This Bank has no political ends of course to serve. All its direc- tors wish for is a prosperous people, that the bank inay do a prosperous business. Sir Richard Cartwright seems to be very unlikely to be returned for South Oxford. The Sentinel -Review, the leading Liberal paper of the county, says that it is useless to deny that divisions exist. A part of the party wish to nominate a man named S. H. Janes, of Toronto, who owns a farm in the county. Then another party named Schell has cone out from Sir Richard and joined the Patrons and accepted a nomination from them. It is said this is also only another effort to get rid of Sir Richard Cartwright by his own friends. The Toru party are generally interested in the little family quarrel, and they sincerely hope that the Knight will be nominated and elected. The worst possible thing that could happen there would be his retire- ment from public life. One of t Mr. Laurier the minds of h and the Northw being ruined, present tariff pelled to trade ada.

With the flrst frosts a very marked inerease takes place in the uumber of came and during this cold, dainp weather extra precautions should be taken. Pneumonia is probably produted bv an earth germ, and when frost prevails the 8011 beneath the house is the only ground which is not frozen. The germs gradually work towards the warm, moist earth and the house really. acts as a sort of flue, which forma a ready mode of egress for them. The proper ventila- tion of rooms is therefore an important factor in guarding against pneumonia, one, however, which is too often over- • Lack of personal hygiene Is the chief predisposing cause of the disease. Ir- regular hours, insufficient nourishment, dyspepsia, excessive fatigue or some disease which has lowered the general tone of the system, all weaken the pewer of resisting.the pneumonic germ. When the system is run down, a sudden ex- posure to cold may prove fatal, while in a normal condition of body it would be thrown off. An instance which recently came under my. observation will serve to illustrate the importance of regularity in meals as a safeguard against disease. Two young ladies of my acquaintance were traveling in a railway car, next to a man just recovered from smallpox, as - was afterwarde found out. °Jae of them had risen early and had breakfasted ; the other had risen late and had not. The one who had not eaten caught the disease and the other escaped. The ladies were twins and almost exactly similar in physique and temperament, and, in ray opinion, the temporary w.eakening of the system, caused by the omission of the morning meal, account- ed for the disease being able to obtain a foothold. There are three periods during which the susceptibility to pneumonia is great- est. They are early childhood, that is up to seven years of age, between the aeges of twenty and forty and after sixty. The power of resistance against peeu- monia grows much feebler after sixty years of ace, and nine -tenths of the cases prove fatal, In New York we have a good deal of northeast wind during November and December and the cold, damn weather it generally brings is very favorable to the contraction ot 'colds' and the sub- sequent development of pneumonia. The grip left its victims very predis- posed to pneumonia and it still exists to some extent in a modified form. This is the disease with which pneumonia most readily combines, but it is found in comeination with diphtheria, typhoid fever, measles, scarlet fever and many others. When a severe or sudden chill has been contracted the main thing. is to act quickly, and many a serious illness can be averted and valuable life saved by a little intelligence coupled with, promptitude. If possible, send for a doctor immediately, and meanwhile take ten grains of quinine and five drops ot spirits of camphor in a little water or on a lump of sugar. These does are for an adult. Then soak the feet in hot water and jump into bed. Simple as these remedies are, they have nipped in the bud many prospective cases of While soaking the feet, the body should be warmly wrapped in a blanket which should be kept on until some time after the person has entered the bed, in order that free perspiration be continued and not checked. A good thing to prevent "colds" is to wear wool next the skin. When this is not possible on acccount of the irrita- tion sometimes caused, a mixture of wool and silk, will generally be found satisfactory. I would not recommend cotton in any form for underwear, as it is fregnently the cause of a dangerous cold by becoming wet and keeping the temperature of the skin below the normal. Care should be taken that the feet do not get wet, or, if so that prompt measures are taken to dry them and a change of hose made. The care taken of the outside of the body must be supplemented by the same care of the inside. A moderate diet, wholesome food, plenty of rest, regular ours, will keep the whole eystem in ood order and enable it to throw off th germs of disease, which can only obt in a footing when debilitation af- fords an entrance for the disease and a fruitful soil for ite development. —Cyrus Edson, Commissioner of Health for New York. Effec to of Deep -Sea Pressure, It is not unusual for bottles of chem. pagne to be ipped and trolled in salt water, when there is no ice on ship- board, in order to get the wine to a palatable temperature, but never long enough to cause contact between the salt water and the wine. We can hardly tell what the effect upon the wine would be if the bottle were immersed at a great depth for any c nsiderable time. It is a fact, however, that if an ordinary glass bottle, tightly coiked and sealed, be sunk in say, fifty fathoms of salt water and, left there or about ten minutes. it may, when brought to the surface, be found partly f II of water, We say "may," because the pressure of the superincumbent mass of water will either force the water through the porous glass, force the cork into the bottle, or break the bottle. By a law of hydrostatics the pr of water is in , proportion to its ve height and its area at the base. reckoned that the pressure of water any body plunged into it is about o pound to the square inch for every two feet of the depth. Bottles filled with fresh water, tightly corked and sealed, have been sunk to great depths in the ocean, and where the enormous pres- sure has not burst the bottles it has driven in the cork and displaced the fresh with salt water. Pieces of wood have been weighed and sunk in the sea, with the result that the tissues have bel come so condensed that the wood has lost its buovance and will never float agaip.

Never before in the history of this State have the prospects been so flattering. The apectaeular effect that accompanied earlier mining excitements is wanting, but there is in its pine an element of greater stability and per- manence. The romantic era, when the population, red-shirted and roughly clad, wandered among the .gulches and feethills of the Sierras, with pick and pan, searching for the precious particles among the gravel of the river beds, has passed into history. The more intense- ly dramatic era, when the fever of speculation coursed through the veins, when everv fluctuation in the prices of stocks was watched with eager interest by millionaire and pauper hy the clerk in the counting house and the serving maid in the kitchen or nursery, when fortunes were made and lost in a day, and when everybody was rich whethor his wealth wire evidenced by a comfor- table bank account or by a scrap of worthless paper—this second and more unwholesome era has also passed, to re- turn no more. The mining of to -day, while it lacks the elernent of wild excitement, is on a more solid basis ane has a far more sub- stantial prosperity. Mining methods are more scientific than they were, wasteful and extravagant processes have been laid aside, new and unproved machinery has been brought into use, and private companies,operating quietly and soberly, are reaping a harvest un- dreamed of even in the days when the delirium of speculation was among us. The placer mines have been diligently worked over. There are still golden grains and nuggets in the river beds, but not in sufficient quantities gener- ally to pay corp.orations for working them, although iudividual miners can still make "grub." But the placer mines at best held only the overflow of the richer original depos- its. The wealth in the hillsides poured over and the surplus was carried with the rain into the rivers. From north to south, throughout the whole strength of the Sierra range, are ledges laden with .their golden treasure as yet untouched. Quartz mining is still in its infancy de- spite the vast stores of wealth that have inready been wrested from the earth; drift mining will yet add untoldimillions to the wealth of this State. The oatput of gold this year will far exceed any- thing of recent years. Not in this state alone, but through- out the world, this renewed activity is tieen., Colorado, prostrated last year by the repeal of the Sherman law, stands to -day as one of the wealth -producing states of the world. This yvar California will be closely push- ed for first place among the gold bearing States of the Union. 'Iwo years ago the gold product of Col- orado was less than $5,0e0,000—$4.743,- 000—while California produted mere than twice that amount. The next year Colorado increased its output sixty-five per cent. while the increase in Califor- nia. was only eight per cent. This year the difference 13etween the two will be still further decreased, In Montana twice as many properties are being worked this year as last ; in Australia there is unusual activity and the output of South Africa, which a few years ago contributed practically nothing to the world's supply ia estimated ior this peat at $48.000,000. When California, Australia and Rus- sia first began, iu the early fifties, their immense output of gold, prices were seriously affected. Prior to 1850 the an- nual product had never exceeded $38,- 000,000, or slightly more than will be produced in the two States of California and Colorado this year. During the next five years the annual average was $137,000,000, the highest point reached being in 1853, when the output was $155,-000,000. After that date there was a decline in production. In 1873, twenty years later, the output was $96,200,000 ; in 1883 it was $94,0d0,000. Last year, however, the effect of the increased de- mand for gold was felt, and the output reached and passed the figures of 1853. The most careful estimates place this year's production at $170,000,000. For the lour 'years since 189J the annual average exceeds that . of 1850-55 by to be the effect of these im- mense additions to the world's supply of gold ! The increased production of 1850-1860 resulted in a decline in the purchasing power of gold, or, expresa d differently, prices generally rose. The same result should be seen at this time were it not for certain other factors that are at work. The increased supply is in response to an increased demand, and thaf demand will absorb the surplus as it is produced. Again, the world's stock of gold is far greater now than it WAS forty years ago, and additions that would materially affect the mass then would not be felt now. It is therefore probable that, unless continued for a number of years, the increased produc- tion will not affect the business of the world. The effect in California will, however. be different. The annual ad- dition of fifteen to twenty millions to the wealth of this State is bound to affect all business beneficially. One year's output would be sufficient to build the proposed railroad through the San Joaquin valley. The cost of a new trans -conti- nental line would scarcely. be felt if taken out of several years' output.-- Axgonaut. Overdressed mon. Some men are constantly overdressed.
