Now that it has been decided by a

els Listowsl, !Brussels anti Blyth a pre-
ferable to all others, we hope to se the
opposition to that line, which has
heretofore waisted in certain carters,
discontinued st once and forever.
No town can ever progress w lag u
than all' elements of o0ntetia.s m Its
midst, and the wonder has been that
O.d.riob hes managed to maintain the
taessute of prosperity that has been its
portion in past years, when i; is consa-
sled that, to a greater or less extmt, the
eptrit of contention on pabl.c tatters
hs ruled so atroogly.
The time has come for every resident
to bery petty differences u to details,
end for all to loin heartily in the promo-
tion of a scheme which sill *endue. to
enhanced prosperity on the part of the
town. The hour for child a play on the
Railway question has gone, and it u
necessary that sober, earnest work be
done by the men who have undertaken
to labor for the promotion of tate pro-
posed railway scheme.
Tu this sed, perhaps the first step
should be to do away with the riialry
that has hitherto existed between the
railway committee of the town citmciland
the citizens' railway committee. There
is fie room for two railway committees
in • town of this six*, or, m fact, io any

Three weeks ago we called attention to
the extent of our trade in tits saline pro -
desk mud the excellent character of
Comedian salt in both cheese sad better
making, as attested by the blithest en -
thorny. We then claimed that all that
wee aecoeaty fur the full der.lopeueet
of the sit hennas of this district w
free trade in that artwle with the United
!tats.
Reciprocity with the United States,
we repeat, is • oeossaity of the hour.
If it be eareseisted reciprocity, we are
ready fcr it, for it will be of uodu.bted
bemedt to this sectio. of Ontario. And
if it be more limited, and takes the shape
of reciprocity in natural products only,
we will still welcome it, for • half loaf ie
better then to bread.
Standing on the brow of the hill over-
looking 'our half-desrted harbor, and
calling to mind the rah of business
which prevailed on the waters at our
feet under the old Racierucity Treaty,
we can plainly see where oar natural
market lies.
W. are working and shouting fur
more railway accommodation, and will 1
do so until the rails of the new bus are
laid, but reciprocity will do for us as
much or more than will a new, com-
peting railway. Indeed, with redpeoci-
ty,a new railway would be hastened alone
by the management as rapidly a the
town could endorse it. "Where the
caress is, there will the eagles be gath-
ered together."
To show that the salt business of On-
tario his not increased As it should have
dope, and how it would have boomed
soder free trade relations with the Unit-
es States, the following simple state-
ment i• submitted fur the consideration
of the thoughtful reader.
The salt industry of Misbi,an had its
beginning in 1860, in which year the
product was only 4,000 barrels In
1570 it was 621,352 barrels, in 1880 it
was 2,683,b88 barrels, and is 1886 it was
3,677 237 barrels per annum. The first
silt well in Ontario was put down is
1866, and in 1880 the first year for
which • tensa was taken of the quanti-
ty manufactured;, the prodact was 472,-
000 barrels. In 1886, it appears by a
report of the Geological Survey, the
product was only 4:0000 barrels.
We would like some of our ratric•
tionist friends to tell us why the wells
of Michigan have increased their pro-
duct by nearly a mitlicn barrels annually
since 1880. while Ontario has in the
BMW period lessened her output I Aod
all this in the face of the fact that we
have facilities for shipping equal, it not
superior to Michigan. Int every lover
of business progress. Grit and Tory,
work heartily fur reciprocity with the
neighboring country- our natural mar-
ket.
We will elms this article with the
folluwirg timely quotation from the
Toronto "Mail' on the question :
"Hu salt industry in Huron, Bruce
and Lampton. now un its last legs, can
be revived by the removal of the cutom
houses, and in no other way. it is no
doubt that if the Dominion Government
were to tax the English salt imported for
am in Quebec and the Maritime Provin-
ces, and which also finds its way as far
west as Toronto, the Ontario salt mea
would make money. But it is equally
certain that the fishermen of Eastern
Canada would los by the protection
thus afforded the home article ; arid,
oonsidering that they are compelled to
es11 their fish, first paying the duty,
in New England and to buy their
manufactured gods at high tariff prices
in Meson's!, the disadvantages ender
which the labour are already grave
enough. The opening of the American
market to Ontario salt would enable oar
people to increase their output enormous-
! for • relatively trifling addition Co
their running expenses, Last year On-
tario exported only $`.t,000 worth, all
told. Free trade would throw open the
Western and North-Western stases te
the Canadian maker ; it is admitted by
such good judges as the Chimer) ..at
and pork packers that Canada salt is
unsurpaa.ed in quality. It is said by
Profiteer R.nberteon, of the Outario
Agnoultural College, to be better for
'bolas making porpoise than English
alt : and the Ontario Creameries Asw-
ciatioe pronounces it better for butter-
makiog as well. Cbieagn, Milwaukee
and St. Paul &Ione would probably take
200,000 harrels a year if the American
duty were removed. At parent the
