MITCHELL, Editor and Proprietor THE PRIVATE CAR HABIT. The private car habit seems to be growing. The managers and the min- isters all have them and the Liberal newspapers view a round dozen of them now with perfect coniplacency where two or three were regaraed as a scandal under Tory Government. Bet the use of these private cars k not confined to the managers and the min- isters, their families and their friends. A short time ago when Sir Louis Dav- ies came down to Prince Edward Is- land, a private car was sent from Charlottetown to convey the jedge and party to the capital. This a, preced- ent that should not heti% beenestab- lished no matter how anxious official- dom may have been to make it pleas- ant for a gentleman recently a member of the Laurier Cabinet. if one judge is to be favored in this way, others, provided they get the appointment irom the right side of the house, may look for the saine treatment. The private car habit would seem to have reached its limit.-Maneton Times. BLAIR WASTED HALF MILLION. Hon. A. G. Blair has given another illustration of his incapacity as a Minister of the Crown and has inci- dentally thrown $500,000 to the winds. He rid himself of this insig- nificant sum (?) by putehasing a steamer to carry the Intercolonial Railway trains across the Straits of Cense, which divides Cape Breton from Nova Scotia proper. The vessel has proved a rank failure. She is ab- solutely worthless and now there is a suggestion that the waters in which she was to hav.e sailed should he bridged. If carried out this work will cost several millions. Mr, Blair has fallen down in almost everything he has yet attempted and the prayers of Canadians should be offered that, if the Strait of Canso ,is to be bridged, the construction may be placed in hands other than those responsible for the disappearance of a cold half mil- lion in a vessel condemned during the first weeks .of her service.

Yet the Liberal Government declares that an attempt to succor the farmer is "mere clap- trap." WHAT LIBERALS ADVOCATE, • There are a large number of Liberals UL Perliament Who advocate Free Trade as a policy best Stated to the needs of aanada. And their argu- ments are so ridiculous that they are faughable. Hon Clilford Salton, Sir Richard eartwaight and others tell us to buy in the cheapest market. 'A shoeinakee going to one of these geut- Ienien Would say : " I understand Mr. Sifton you are in favor of buying your shots where you buy cheapest ?" And the reply would be : " 0 yes I I want•to help you poor Canadian shoe- makers," and so on ad intinituni. erels advocate the upbuilding of Can- ada's industries by purchasing from her rivals.. Happy thought I Buy our textiles, hardware, furniture, clothing and other necessaries irom slaughter markets. Transform Toronto, Mont- real and other large centres into unprogressive towns end you will have.. reached the ideal ot the Free Trader. Send.our people abroad to toil in a foreign land ; ruin the inen who have placed their trust in the future of their birthplace ; •and bay . in the cheapest market. What. a magnificent prospect hes been opened pp to us by those cominerval giants,. the Ministers of the Interior and Trade and Com- merce. Every • reduction in the tariff will be a blow struck for foreign com- petition. What the Conservative par- ty asks for is. " Canada for the Can- adians' and that can only conic with a tariff . formed for the .benefit , of our own Canadian people." • alo,000 ACCOUNTED FOR. The dredging of a channelat Port- er's Lake, Halifax County, Nova Scotia, is one of the many cases where money has been thrown away by the Public Works department. The work was carried on by the day'' and only those furnished with • certificates 1,y the Liberal district manager were given employment. About lito,000 was spent just previous to the Dotninion and Provincial elections and Low it is found that the channel is worthless and its completion has been postpon- ed. The tools used and paid for by the Dominion treasury were allowed to rot by the wayside. After the el- ections were over the work was aban- dorzed with unbecoming haste. That accounts for the waste of $xo,000 of the $65,o00a00o spent last year with no object served other than the pur- chase of votes for .the Liberal party. RITT.T.ETT TOWNSHIP:. - Owing to the very backward weather a large number of the farmers.' have not finished haying and many have had to leave off on account of the wheat being ready for cutting. Mr. Samuel Switzer recently sold to Mr. Chas. Reid ten head of fine ex- port cattle. Sam is a hustler in the cattle business and has his ratan well stocked with other cattle that will ohortly be ready for market. MSS Sadie Sterling of Clinton spent several days visiting her friend, Miss Agnee Cooper of the 9th con. Miss hlandena Holland of the nth eon. was for the past week the guest of her friends, Misses A. and A, Allen of Colborne. Misses Katie and Pearl Miller 01 Harriston spent several clays as guests of relatives la this section. They loft for their home on Tuesday of this week. Miss Helena Reeves ot Goderich is at present visiting her friend, Mise Aphrew Steep of the 9th con. Mr. -Jacob Shepherd is spending a few days with his daughter, Mrs. 3. G. Steep. His health has been very poor for months but we sae pleased to learn 01 an improvement. Mr, and Mrs. William Dempsey and Miss Caroline of Blyth spent Sunday at Mr. John Dempsey's. Mrs, Stephen Peeves of Ditngf.n11011 spent last week as the guest of friends in this township. Mr. William Perdue may easily claim to be the oldest thresher in point of service in the township. He began forty years ago, when, he was thirteen years of age, and three years later began "on his own hook." He continued to thresh eVery season until the present and it is worthy of., note that for a number of his patrons he threshed front his first season until his last. Mr. Perdue is now out of the business and has sold his machine. Mr. George A. Anderson, principal of the Public school at Griswold, Man., gave the folks on the homestead a great surprise on Saturday last by arriving home unexpectedly after an absence of ten years. Previous to leaving for the West he taught S. S. No. 9, this township, for five years. He has a prosperous look as we would expect in an up-to-date and successful teacher as we have zo doubt he is. . Mrs. James Stoddart and Master David • of Egmonclville drove up on Sunday morning and visited at Mr. On Friday • last the remains of Mrs. Robert Welker's .ditring the day. Peter .Brennari, one of our good moth- ers in Israel, were interred in the. ' Catholk cemetery -ant the sth. con. .The • HOW THE MONEY GOES. The close student of Dominion poli- tics is quickly convinced of the fact that there is a decided lack Of system prevailing at Ottawa in all of the great money spending departments. 'fake for instance the public works that are being carried out from one cad of Canada to the other and it is iinpossible to find any two connecting links. A thousand dollars here and a half a million there will be fonnd ain- ong the items at the end of each year but in many cases the money is simp- ly thrown away. The question of transportation has been touched on the very outside edge and money is being spent at different places only to prove that the works au course of con- struction are of little more than local value. At St. John and Halifax grain elevators were erected at the ex- pense of the Gervermnent to be used by the International Railway. As ev- erybody knows Hon. Mr. Blair niade a mess of the grain carrying business, losing thousand's of dollars. in discov- ering that he could not compete with other lines. The St. John and Hal- ifax elevators in consequex.ee are lying. idle and the country has $500f000 tied up in a useless way. Many similar in- stances can be cited and the aggregate waste of money is enormous. What the country wants is a policy in which system shall play at least a minor part, The Government is speed* ing over $65,000,000 per annum at present, yet it is impossible to dise cover one great work that is beieg carried on. WHAT THE FARMER LOSES. We are told by the Liberal govere- ment that it is impOssible to protect the farmer, but no greater felicity has ever been propounded by Sir IVilfrld Lauricr and his followers, despite the fact That the past mittiter of a ten- tury isestrewei with the remains or in- iquitous policies, the conceptions of a weary army of power seekera. The farmer an be protected in Canada just as effectively as the 'United States. There they enjoy their home market to the Itilleet eatent. The ColuterVatiVeS have advocated the en- couragement of Canadian agriculturel- lots “Ild the eSclusiOn of the $154000e ST.
