CANADIANS WILL
SUPPORT 'THEM.
Five thousand Doukhobors have- de-
cided that during • the coming winter
the government of Canada must be re-
sponsible for their maintenance. Hen.
Clifford Sifton has so often declared
these people to be the acme of our im-
migration importations that the an-
nouncement is somewhat startling.
The Conservative party was denounc-
ed for daring to impeach the 'usefui-
ness of these settlers, who were her-
alded as a people of priceless value in
opening up a country witere other rac-
es would starve. But the delightful
picture is shattered end it is up to the
people of Canada to support the
thousands, for the departure of whom
Russia had reason to thank Provid-,
ence. Worthless in their own country,
the Doukhobors promise to be a
greater nuisance here. Five thousand
Canadians from the 'United States
might have occupied the places of the
undesirable DOukhobors had the
money spent in assisting the latter
been devoted to encouraging the for-
mer to return to their native land.
Canada is only beginning to reap the
harvest of the ill-advised immigra-
tion policy Or the present administra-
tion. It is significant that the auth-
orities do not care to discuss the
matter.

Canada, 130,879 cwt. A.ustralian but-
ter sold for an avergge of 1091. 6d.
Per cwt, white Canadian butter only
averaged zoo. 314 The Times points
out that Canadian butter loses in vel -
em because it is improperly packed
and carried on steamers the tempera-
ture of which is much too high. The
Australian coloniee, it is shown, have I
overcome the difficulty of transporting
butter for long distances, while Can-
ada in far behind. This is intereking
in view of the fact that Hon, Sydney
Fisher has 'been 'booming himself as
the greatest friend the Canadian
dairyman has. Canadians will be
aortiewhat startled to find that not
only can the Australians beat us out
in a market which is some thousands
of miles nearer to ue, but they secure
far better prices. Will somebody. kind-
ly wake Mr. Fisher ?
A BRITISH WORKhLAN'S OPINION.
The following letter from a British
workman to a brother artizan in the
United States shows how strong the
protectionist sentiment is becoming in
England ;
'To the Secretary of the I-lome Mar-
ket Club, 56 Bedford street, Bos-.
, ton, Mass.
.• " Dear Sir,—Thanks for thepapers
you sentme. 1 Was In Ainerica a-
bout two months last summer, sent
over by our association to see for
niy.self whether the working classes of
your country were better off under
protection than we under free trade,
and the conclusion I come to is this :
"That any person who has to earn
a. living in America as a producer
must hest 'become crazy before he
becomes a free-trader, and the farmers
must (be the craziest of the whole lot
to think of such a thing. Before any
of your workingmee, either engaged ill
manufacture or agriculture talk about
free trade let them send: one of their
number over here to see what is going
on in this country ; let him walk for
about Six Months looking for a job
until his coat gets ragged and • his
shoes thin, and lie 'gets the thinnest of
all, and everywhere he asks for work
he will be told that the Germans and
Belgians ate doing the work cheaper
than he can no t ; then let them send
for him again and hear what he says
about free trade.
" If it is •the surplus revenue that
is causing the trouble send it to some
• free trade country. You. never knew
theni t h ; or 11 yo
don't like to do that take it out to
sea and sink it or do anything rather
than adopt free trade, that is to say,
if you don't want foreign competition
to ruin your „Manufacturing indus-
tries and by so :doing ruin your farm-
ers by robbing them Of their home

Aceidental.---On Sunday last while
the Rev. Small was homeward bound
from evangelistic services at Dungan-
non he ran foul of another rig and
gave himself and buggy rather a bad
shaking
On Monday morning beef took a
drop beyond a doubt when the top of
the butcher's cart was rolled from the
wheels and the nimble steed took a
homeward course, leaving the balance
of the rig en route. Joe Irwin es-
• received. a bad shaking up and scratch -
Mg, nevertheless, near J. Youngblut's

The Gravel was also the scene of a
disastrous conflagration on Sunday,

most reduced to •%shoe on his return

CANADIAN WHEAT OSTRACIZED.
Germany is more emphatic than ev-
er in her determination to exclude
Canadian grain from her markets..
Orders have been issued for the strict-
er observance of the discriminatory •
tariff of 16 cents per bushel against
our cereals. As a result Canadian
grain has ceased to figure to any
appreciable extent in supplying Ger-
many's needs. The United States
fernier, on the other hand, ia making
rapid gains in his grain sales to the
Germans, the 16c advantage doing for
hint what "mutual preference" would
accomplish for Canadians in the Brit-
ish market. The alleged preference
given to British goods in our own tar-
iff was the cause of German hostility
towards our grain. And the worst of
it is that while our farmers are unalt-
le to escape the noxious grain tax,
German manufacturers • are actually
making money by availing themselves
of the privilege of the British •prefer-
ence and supplying our home markets.
with goods that should be produced
by our own manufacturers. So far as
it is known Sir Wilfrid Laurier and
his associates, during their stay in
England, did not exercise themselves
in regard to the injustice done our
farmers by Germany. According to
the official reports only 8000 bushels
of Canadian wheat was imported en -
to Germany during the year ending
Jane 3oth, 1902, a falling off of tens
of thousands of bushels.
