The Patrons ought to have in their
platform a Butter Reform Plank.
With wheat at 60 cents a bushel, and
with little prospect of higher prices
prevailing in the immediate future, the
t farmers of Ontario ought to be educat-
ed in the art of making good butter.
Improved and scientific methods 'of
butter -making adds 25 per cent. value
to the product as made on the old-time
principles. Our farmers can branch
out into this industry on a large scale.
There is little danger of over -production,
• as we have an immense field for the sale
• of good butter in the British markets.
That market is certain, and is not likely
to be disturbed by the imposition of
duties, and it will absorb all the good
'butter Ontario can make.

Blake, member for South Longford in the
linpeeiaI Parliament and one of the leaders
of the Irish party, addressed an audienee
of nearly 2,000 people here last night on
the Horde Rule question. Mr. Blake was
attended by a large number of distinguish-
ed Irishmen, including Hon. „john Costi-
gen, Secretary of State for Canada, Solici-
tor -General Curran, Hon. James McShane
and many others. Mr. Blake was present-
ed with an address and in response made a
long and eloquent speech, in which he re-
viewed the progression of the Home Rule
bill. He declared that the Trish party in
alliance with the English Liberal party
would keep up the struggle until Home
Rule was obtained. The Irish party, how-
ever, would maintain its independence,
and in order to do Bo they counted upon
the national support of the Irish at home
and abroad. Mr. Blake made a strong ap-
peal to all the friends of the Home Rule
cause to render assistance, as the sum of
$45, Q00 wasreguired annually for expenses.
Canada had. already nobly done its part,
and he believed that the subscriptions this
year would show a large increase. Mr.
Blake's remarks were loudly applauded.
At the close $1,400 was collected to assist
the cause. Mr. Blake left here to -day for

thinking the purpose of the mob was to
burn them up. But all they wanted was
several cases of axe handles that stood
within. A. boisterous clamor announced
the satisfaction of the rioters as -they dis-
tributed the spoils. They went straight to
the &Malta tipple works, which extended
from the hillside out over the Panhandle
railroad tracks, There were several tipple
men present at the time, but they all fled
except Dick Layton, the weigh master.
He made a brave stand as the horde of
foreigners approached. An attempt to ad-
dress them only called forth terrible threats.
Pick handles were wildly brandished and
several weapons were levelled. at Layton.
At the demonstgation he too fled up the
hill while the rioters scrambled to the
tipple. A dozen matches were applied to
tiametructure and it was soon a mass of
flames. • In a moment the entire com-
munity was abroad at the scene of the fire.
The rioters fled over the hills. Efforts
were made to save the works, but nothing
could be done. The tipple, valued at
$5,000, was doomed.
Amid tnimennet exciting scene there oc-
curred an incident that eclipsed even the
disaster. A man's voice rang out through
the silent air. On a freight car a few
paces from the burning tipple stood 0, P.
Mayer, one of the leading citizens and
business men of Bridgeville. It was his
store which had, been invaded by the
robbers. In words trembling with fervor
and eloquent with feeling, he pleaded with
his fellow citizens to avenge the wrong
just committed in their midst, "Let us
organize a band and pursue each scounden1
until brought to justice. Patriotism de-
mands it." The sentiment was greeted
with cheers, including the voices of the
women and children. "We'll do it, we'll
do it," exclaimed voices, and -within ten
minutes a band of twenty armed men had
gathered about Mayer and were clamoring
for action. With looks of determination
on each face, the eband set out in pursuit
of the fleeing horde, which was on its way
towards the Painters' Run district.
The rioters fled like wild animals, with
the citizens close after them. For about
four miles the fight was kept up, the horde
heading toward Heidelburg, where most
of them live. Just as they entered the

THE WORST OF ALL THE ISMS.

"Don't talk to rue about your political
i ems," said a facetious old valetudinarian,
"I tell you there is no ism on earth so bad
as rhenniatiem," The venerable sufferer
was right. St. Lawrence's gridiron or
Quatimosdn's pallet of fire was not more
emphatically a bed of torment than the
couch of the martyr to rheumatism, It is
generally considered by the faculty one of
the most obstinate as well as one of the
most painful of maladies, and it certainly
does resist all ordinary remedies with ex-
traordiniery pertinacity. Skill and science,
however, iiethis age of progress, seem to
master all opposition; and oven this painful
disease, entrenched among the muscles,
and interknit, as it were, with the sinews
and tendons of our trames, is -compelled to
yield to the curatives they have provided.
We have it on unquestionable authority
-the testimony of patients themselves -
that rheuenatinin'hovrever deeply seated,
may be cured by the regular and persistent
application of Holloway's Ointment. This,
we feel assured, will be welcome intilligeuem
to thousands; of sufferers, bed -ridden by the
dieeaee, or limping with stiffened joints
along the pathway to the tomb. In a
climate where the quicksilver sometimes
makes a leap of thirty degrees up or down,
the complaint is of course a prevalent one,
and in our new settlements at the West,
along the alluvial borders of our great
rivers, in the hemloolt swamps of the South
and in all low and damp looations, few
persons reach the age of forty years with-
out a rhoupeatio visitation. It is clear,
therefore, that a preparation whittle will
afford, immediate relief, and effect event-
ually a thorough onto of the complaint,
must be at special value to the people of
all countries. We cannot reasonably
don et, in view of the well -attested sesta-
nieete which have been laid before us,
dustained as they are by eirourestatees
within our ownknOwledge' that the (lini-
ment referred to will effectthat object; and
among all the bonefite which the dismovere
les of that oeletteted pnysinian aridmatieropiet have sainferred upon mankind,
this is certainly not thaleaet importeett.
Many an industrious tiller of the soil,
whose sorvieee aro needed in the field, is
at this moment langtiehieg on a bed of
sickness; the hands that should guide the
plough or grasp the spade rendered power -
leer. by rheumatism. Marty a toiler in
every branch of productive labor is similar-
ly satiated; and we oat imagine with whet
joy these oufferare would hail the means
of immediate cure. TO all such we feel
