I4I.Ye ki$11ranee and Cr,me.
Late summer public attention was
directs to all alleged crime known as
the Hartley case, wherein the wife of
Hartley watt tried on the charge of
poisoning her husband, her alleged
motive being to obtain an insurance
on her husband's life, and also consum-
mate an illicit love alliance in 'Qvhich
she had become entangled. She was
acquitted on the charge, but since that
time several other cases have come
before the public of a like nature,
wherein it is alleged that crime has
been committed in order to secure the
insurance on the lives of ther victims.
The American courts have furnished
a number of cases of this nature, some
of them as revolting and brutal as can-
be
anbe conceived, and at the present time
a young man is on trial at Minnea-
polis, charged with being the chief
principal in the murder of a young
woman who had insured her life in his
favor,
The Middlesex tragedy near St.
Thomas, not yet tried, is one wherein
a father and son are alleged to have
been a party to the murder of their
nephew, solely to secure the insurance
on his life. The Hyams case, at Tor-
onto, is another one in point, the prin-
cipals being on trial for the murder of
a young man, whose life was heavily
insured. None of these cases have yet
been concluded; all the suspected par-
ties may be entirely innocent, but we
allude to them simply to show the ap-
parent prevalence of crime of this
character.
Life insurance is daily becoming
more and more a feature of business,
and its relation to the individual pos-
sesses possibly, greater significance in
view of the circumstances stated. The
insurance :companies will be disposed
to reduce the amount of their risks
and smaller policies will be the result,
while parties who have hevvy policies
might feel a little nervous or timid,
lest calamity may befal them.
If crimes of this nature especially
are brought home to any individual,
the strong arm of the law should not
be stayed in meteing out punishment.
No sentimental nonsense should be al-
lowed to intervene and save the guilty.
Human life is too valuable and price -
1 less to be sacrificed on the altar of
liinancial advancement. Murder for
any cause is bad enough, but it is in-
finitely worse when it is deliberately
perpetrated for greed of this kind.
How Can It Be ?
The Mail -Empire of Monday says :- •
"During the past month the- impor-
tations into Buffalo from Canada in-
creased largely, as compared with the
corresponding month last year. Nearly
double the quantity of Canadian bar-
ley, cattle, horses and farm produce
were imported."
We believe the above to he strictly
true. We have not the slightest doubt
but that a great deal of Canadian pro-
duce finds a market in the United
States. This is exactly what Liberals
contend to be the case, but the Mail
and other papers, at other times, assert
• ?that`: is not true. They state that
,.
' n farmer raises "barley,
the AI'1Ca ey,
c.Attte, hoes and farm produce," and
that there r'8 no market there for simi-
lar Canadian products. Further, they
tell us that the Americans would flood
this market with the same products if
we had freer trade relations. Now
will"the Mail please reconcile its incon-
sistent position, and tell us how "dou-
ble the quantity of Canadian products"
ern go into Buffalo market, while at
the same time the Americans have
stuff for sale. The truth of the matter
the American market is the best alt -
round market the Canadian farmer
has, and the Mail knows this. It
knows, further, that the opening ups
of better trade relations between the
two nations would be infinitely to the
advantage of the Canadians, but it
prefers to mislead the people for politi-
cal purposes. Canada must find a wid-
er scope for its productions, if it is to
grow and expand as it should.
Because we advocated a fixed date
on which both Dominion and Local
elections shall he held, the Atwood
Bee imagines we are unduly anxious
about the matter. Not at all. We
are not losing any sleep ever the com-
ing Dominion elections, for whatever
anxiety we might have, would not
affect the date one atom. All the
,same we think it would be a gond idea
the date of these things were fixed
by law, just the same as that of a
municipal election; unless, of course,
where agovernment might be defeated
in the middle of its tern]. Now, will
the Bee let usiknow what. its opinion
about this matter is ?

A MajoiLy of S7 on thio I�"i,•8t
Z»viston.
The filet division in the Local House
occurred on Thursday last, when the
government was sustained by a ma-
jority of 37.
The Opposition sprang a surprise up.
on the House by•moving an amend-
ment in favor of abolishing the fees
system, Sir Oliver Mowat appealed
to the House against it as inoppertune
and purposeless, except to embrass the
Government in anticipation of its
promised announcement of its policy
on the subject. He declared his in-
tention as for himself of voting against
it for these reasons, and he refused to
be considered as having committed
himself by so doing to an opinion upon
the subject. He asked the House tc
wait for the report of the Fees Com-
mission. Mr Haycock, speaking for
the Patrons, explained that as they
had promised to wait for the Govern-
ment to announce its policy, they
would stand by that promise. They
did
be. used by the Oppposition to break the
Government in this catch -vote fashion.
He did not believe in the.appointtnent
of the fees commission, but as one had
been appointed and money had been
expended on it he thought they should
make the best use possible of it. "We
are not here to make or break Govern-
ments, but to attend to the country's
business," he declared in conclusion.
"We will vote against the amend-
ment, not because we arse opposed to
the principle, but because we think it
is only fair and right after our prom-
ise to give the Government an oppor-
tunity --of announcing their policy.
'Shen, if that policy commends itself
to us, we will support it, and if it does
not we will flght it to the last ditch."
After this announcement the result of
the division was not a surprise, al-
though it was not less gratifying to
the Government's supporters that
the first division gave them a majority
of 37.

Grange Address.
At a recent meeting of the Domin-
ion Grange the annual address of Do-
minion Master Dawson contained
some good points. After alluding to
the mission of the Grange, he referred
to the necessity of farmers being edu-
cated in order to use every faculty of
their being for their own development.
He showed that there was a greater
spirit of independence among the far-
mers than ever before; and advised
farmers to economise and keep out of
debt, and adapt themselves to existing
circumstances. He believed that
smaller farms would contribute moi e
to the happiness s
of the e masse ,std not
think there should be any conflict be-
tween capital and labor. After allud-
ing to the increasing debt of Canada
and the proposed issue of further na-
tional currency, he urges every Patron
of Industry to give the Good Roads
Association alt the encouragement
possible.
TIDINGS FROM ZIONVILLE,
I suffered everything but death fron In-
digetion during foar years and tried all
sorts of medicine to no effect, at last I was
advised to try Burdock Blood Bitters, and
before finitihing the second bottle I was as
well as I could be, and have had good
health ever since.

Mr Dalton McCarthy states that he
was read out of the , Conservative
party by the express orders of the late
Sir John Thompson.
Whatever else might he said con-
cerning Mr Haycock, the Patron lead-
er in the House, it can be truthfully
said that he has the happy faculty of
enlivening the debates by his humor
and witticisms. A ready and forcible
speaker, he is a personal acquisition to
the House.
It is said that Mr Mowat personally
favors retaining government House at
Toronto, but believes the Lieut -Gov-
ernor should meet his own expenses.
If this be so, Mr Mowat is not in touch

barrel, abolished. And the sooner it
is abolished the better.
Some time ago electricity, generated
on the American side of the Niagara
Falls, was conveyed to the Canadian

question arose "was it subject to

that it is and places a duty of 20 per
cent on it. Next thing the govern-
ment will be putting a duty on air.
In the Local House, on Thursday,
Dr. Ryerson taunted the government
with only having a bare majority, and
said that if the government had been
composed of men of honor, they would
have resigned long ago. And the

got through, showed a majority of
only 37 in favor of Mr Mowat,

Telfer, who died on Friday, at his
residence on the 16th con., clear Wal-
ton, at the age of 81 years. His wife,
one son, (William) and one daughter

On Friday Mr J. S. Porter, of Sea -
forth, alarmed his family considerably
by taking suddenly ill, the symptoms
being similiar to those proceeding an
attack of apoplexy with which he was
afflicted some years ago. Medical aid
was called in and after a few hours
he revived, although he is not ye bre
to leave the house.
The other day Wm. Mo was re-
turning from Seaforth to Brussels
with Coleman Bros' team and a heavy
load of heading for the Brussels Salt
Works. In meeting two men in a cut-

gave half the road, a very difficult
task with his load. The platform of
the sleigh was wide, however, and a
collision took place in which the cut-
ter suffered. The Seaforth Magistrate
taxed Mr Mooney $15.10 for what he
(Mooney) declares was not his fault,
in the slightest, last Monday.
The annual meeting of the South
