Abe Canada Farmer's Sun 'asks and answers the following question: - "What shall he the battle ground in the coming Federal elections? The Manitobachool ernbroglio? Not that alone. The trate question and the policy of economy and honesty are the issues In the coming contest." Important as the school question may be, it will not figure to any appreciable extent in the coming con - teat. The Sun very truly says that "The trade question and the policy of economy and honesty are the issues in the )coming contest." These are the issues in which the mass of the people are vitally interested. If the government maintains its present attitude on the trade question, it will have to face a good many electors who desire a change. The people know by bitter experence that the promises of pros- perity and progress made on behalf of the N. P. have not been realized; they know that the policy of the govern- ment has not been an economical one, nor one free from corruption. Wheth- er they are prepared to express their condemnation thereof remains to be seen. But one thing is about as certain as anything can be that has to be fore- casted, and it is that the people are not by any means satisfied" with mat- ters as they are. This country needs a change of trade policy, about as bad as it can need anything, and until there is a change no marked improvement will take place. The Montreal Gazette in a moment of candor,admits that our superannua- tion system is a blunder. Most people are now convinced of that. It never was intended that it should impose a great burden on the Canadian taxpayer, but used as it has been for fifteen years to multiply fat jobs for needy political hacks, it has cost Canada nearly $200,- 000 over what is paid by those benefit- ing by it. Why not pay the officials what they are worth and let them in- sure their own future ? Does anybody think the salaries are so inadequate that there would be a dearth of candi- dates for the offices? It would be worth something to see an office hunting for man in this country. Export Trade N otes Canada shiPPed 3,510 horses to Great Britain last year, an increase of 2,278 over 1891. Canada's exports of Coal last year were valued at $3,321,000, and of these $2,897,- 000 worth went to the United States. Our exports of horned cattle to Great Britain last year were less by 27,000 than three years ago. This is the result of the embargo on live animals. Even our batter trade is picking up, there having been an increase from $440,- 000 to $936,000 in the value of the ship- ments to Great Britain since 1891. The six leading items in Canadian ex- ports last year were: animals and their products, $26,355,000, forest produote, $26,- 355,000; fisheries, $11,102,030; manufact- ures, $7,692,000; minerals; $5,801,0)0. A little over 9100,000,000 worth of Can- adian products were sold abroad last year, and of this total no lees than $66,138,010 worth found a market within the other portions of the Empire. In three years Canada's exports of eggs to Great Britain have increased from $83,. 000 to 9503,000. The future of this industy white at its inception was pronounded in. capable of success is now assured. In 1891:Canada exported $589,000 worth of bacon to Great Britain, and in 1894 $2,- 748,000 worth. In the same period our ex- ports of hams increased from $36,000 to $166 000. Our dead meat industry will soon rival the cheese trade. Three years ago it thought Canada was doing a big thing in exporting nine and a half million dollar° worth of cheese, but laat year our exports in this line were valued at $15,439,000. The industry of which ex -speaker Ballantine is the head continues to be one of the greatest and most in the Dominion.

'We grow weeds and buy vegetables. Wo catch 5 cent fish with a $4 rod We build sobool bonne and send our children off to be educated. We send our boys out with a 940 gen and a 910 dog to hunt for ten cent birds, and yet we expect the Government to make as rich," Facts are stubborn things. Crisp County Clippings Goderich band has decided to dis- band. Nick Foster, who has been a resident of Hey for over 80 years, moved to ,Teeswater last week. Mr Alexander Davidson has decided to rebuild the Commercial hotel build- ing, Seaforth. Qatar;h-Use Nasal Balm. Quick, posi- tive cure. Seething, gleaning, healing. Mr George McGowan, of East Wa- wanosh, is lying very low, and slight hopes are entertained of his recovery. Two old residents of Ashfield passed away last week, in thdj persons of Messrs P. Austin, sr., and K.McDonald. On Wednesday one of the old resi- denters of Grey passed peacefully away at the advanced age of 77 years, in the person of Mr Wm. Fulton, of the 15th con. He was a Presbyterian. Mrs John Patterson, of Bluevale,who has been in poor health all winter, was 'taken suddenly ill Thursday evening, and died Tuesday morning, April 23rd. The Exeter Creamery, which was purchased by Mr A. Q. Bobier, and which has not been in runningopef'a- tion for some time, is to be revived in the near future. Many in Seaforth and vicinity will regret to hear of the death of Mrs Pat- rick Spain, mother of Mr Peter Spain of that town, which sad event occurred on Thursday morning, at the advanced age of 79 years and 6 months. Thomas Tilt, the popylar landlord of the British Exchan$e, Goderich, is wrestling with ill health, having been confined to his roam for several weeks, but he is expected to be out and around again ere long. A business change has taken place in Wingham, T. E. Cornyn having sold his furniture and undertaking business to his cousin, John Cornyn, late of Chicago. The new proprietor has re- sided in Wingham nearly all his life. Edward Armstrong was found dead in bed en Tuesday morning, at the residence of his son, Thos. Armstrong, East Wawanosh. Deceased had been troubled with heart disease, and this is supposed to have been the cause of his death. He had reached the age of 81 years. Mrs T. C. Hawkins, Chattanooga, Tenn., says: Shiloh's Vitalizer "Saved My Life." I consider it the best remedy for a debili- tated system I ever used." For Dyspepsia, Liver or Kidney trouble it expels. Pride 75 ate. On Monday, Rachel, daughter of Richard and Eliza Roe. 3rd con., Grey, responded to the call of her Master and entered into the house not made with hands. Deceased had an attack of grip about two years ago, and, like many others, consumption set in and did its deadly work. She was a member of the Methodist church. The many friends of Mr Andrew Calder, of McKillop, and formerly of Seatorth, will regret to learn that be has been confined tD his Red through illness, for over six weeks, and his con- dition is not yet much improved, al- though his medical attendant thinks he is slowly improving. His troilble is grip complicated with along standing sore leg. A Very pretty wedding took place at evening, April 17th, when Miss Sarah Maple Lane, McKillop, on Wednesday, eldest (tauvnter of Mr Wm. Archibald, was unite[. in marriage to Mr James Hays, of the same township. The cere- mony was performed by Rev Mr Mus- grave, in tires presence of about two hundred and firty guests. When fevers and other epidemics are a. round, safety lies in fortifying the system with Ayer's Sarsaparilla. A person having thin and impure blood, is in the most favorable condition to "catch" whatever disease may be floating in the air. Be wise in time. Mr Thos. Lind's brick house, on the 10th con. of E. Wawanosh, was burned to the ground one evening recently. The fire commenced in the attic and had made considerable headway before it was noticed, and there being no man hole in the ceiling, they were unable to extinguish the fire. We are pleased to state, however, that everything, with the exception of some potatoes in the cellar, was saved. Insurance, $300. What could have been more shock- ing to the residents of Dashwood, than when the news was heard on Monday morning, that Mr Wm. Ball had com- mitted suicide ? He got up in the mcrning the same as usual, went out to the barn to feedthe cattle, and, not corning back at his regular time for breakfast, they went out to see after him, when they were surprised to find that he had hanged himself in the Karn. Cause, unknown. The departed was 57 years of age. Since the water in the river at Gerrie subsided, Hammond Bros. have been engaged in getting what machinery they could out of the river. Though some of the smaller machines are en- tirely ruined, and the larger ones badly broken, still they are not so badly in- jured as would be supposed. The en- gine was fished up out of about ten feet of water, and with the exception of two pulleys, the governors and some small parts being broken off, was none the worse. However, besides the build- ing of a new mill, the repairing of the machinery will cost a large amount, of money. The fine brick house of Mr Harry Elliott, of Turnberry, on the boundary line of Turnberry and Culross, was to- tally destroyed by fire, about, 2 o'clock Monday morning. Some of the con- tents in ther fonta p tit of the ]louse were taken out. The fire originated in the back kitchen but how, it is not known, as there las not been a lire there since last summer. The total lose will be about $1,600, on which there was but a very small insurance. Alex. Forgie, son of Gilbert Forgie, of Turnberry, while out driving in a buggy with Geo. Churchill, on a side - road leading to the6th ion., on Sunday evening, tell head foremost out of the rig, without a moment's warning. Mr Churchill did what he could for him, and then went for assistance, thinking the poor fellow was dying. He was conveyed home, and a medical exami- nation proved the trouble to have been a fit, brought on by overwork and anxiety. We areleased to hear that Mrs J. Wilson, ofthe3rd con. of East Wawa - nosh. who was the victim of a serious and what' might have proved a fatal accident, a few days ago, is on the THE CLINTON NEW _a A mend. She was going to the pump, carrying in one hand a pail of hot wa- ter, and when about to step on to the platform, a large purtion of the earth around the well gave way, carrying Mr8Wilson down adistance of ten feet, where it broke through a decayed crib, and had she not caught hold of a piece of board she would certainly have been drowned. She was badly scalded about the face and arms,but further, no serious injury was sustained.
