Stephen NichoI- son and his brothers, Patrick and John, of Logan, were in the bar, when John Broder- ick, jr., entered. Most of the parties had been drinking, but none of them were really drunk. Up to this time all were considered bosom friends, and no one expected that they would ever quarrell. From the knocking off of hats, it got to blows, but before any seri- ous hitting was done, Mr. Finley, the bar- teud or succeeded cr.ee dad ' the combat- ants. Broderick left the bar gbat returned in a few minutes, when he and Stephen Nicholson went at it again. During the tussle Mr. Nicholson had his neck an d fade frightfully cut, when Broderick left him and passed not the side door, followed by John and Patrick Nicholson, Stephen going out the front door. Broderick was overtaken, when he was knocked down and kicked until it was, thought ht hewas g den d. Hewas lifted into a ()utter and driven home, where he soon rallied, and is now all right, .with the ex. caption that he feel very sore. Nicholson's wounds were stitched up by Dr- Woods, and hes now lies at the Rieke House, where he is being carefully nursed by his wife and sister, and it is hoped wild` noon be about again. 'The affair was most unfortunate, as it started from nothing, and came very near proving a serious affair for all concerned: A razor was not used by Broderick as has been stated. One result of the Dominion Government'srotection p is, that there were 75 per gent. more workmen employed in Iletin factories in 1 884 than. in 1878, and whydoes not the, National Policy benefit the country ?
