FRIDAY, ,DEC. 7, 1888.
mamma prepared statement of the
votes oast at the recent presidential elec.
lion in the United States shows that 5,.
569,990 ,otos were cast for Cleveland and
5,490,491 for Ilarrieon, leaving a major-
ity of 79,499 for the Democratic nominee.
Time it appears that, notwithstanding
the defeat of Cleveland through the op.
eration of the election machinery pro.
'sided by the oonstitutiou, a substantial
majority of the American electorate de-
elared for tariff reform. Adding the
votes cast for pr,.hibitiou and labor nom-
inees it will probably be found that up-
wards (f twelve million votes were oast
for the Presidential candidates..) change
of seven thousand votes in the state of
New York would have given Mr. Cleve-
land a second terns. Thera is no com-
parison between the manner of eonauet-
ing elections in Cauad:t and the United
States. A. successor has not yet been
appointed to Lord Seekviile,
Tire Irish land commission has order-
ed a reduction of fifty per oeat in the
rents payable by tenants on the estates
of the Earl of lienmare, in Kerry oounty.
This amounts to a deceleration from the
government commissioners that Lord
Kenmore has been for generations ex-
torting from his tenants double the
legal rents. And yet it is aeserted that
the Irish tenantry have no cause of cow.
plaint. The reports of the land tom.
miesioner show that they have been, and
in some parts are still being, robbed by
cruel and selfish landlords, but yet they
are stignatized as rebels if they venture
to oomplaiu. The fact is the unfortunate
tenantry have exhibited exemplary
patience. The Earl of Kenmare resign-
ed his Beat in the ministry and joined
the Conservatives when Gladstone intro-
duced his land bill in 188L The reason
of the resignation is now quits clear.
The commissioners appointed under Mr.
Gladotone's bill have ordered his lord.
ship to reduce his rents fifty per sent,
and have advertised to the world the
fact that Earl Kenmare has been robbing
and oppressing his tenants.
THE farmer who sells his pork live
weight at the prices said to be paid, viz.,
,. ,about 54,75 per cwt., with 5 per cent. off
shrinkage, instead of killing and market-
ing them at Brussels, where the market
runs from 86 to 86.00 per owt., is losing
money right along. A farmer reckoned
up that he saved nearly 510 by killing his
last Wednesday. There would not be
such a noticeable difference if the hogs
were sold after harvest, but when pen
feeding has been carried on for months,
the weather cold and the market steady,
with the prospect of a rise, it is a very
different matter. The buyers dednot
5 per cent. per owt. for shrinkage in pur-
chasing live weight and it has been as.
certained that the offal of a 250 pound
hog will not average more than 50 pounds,
and in that is included the heart, kidneys,
Iiver and lard, so that a person does not
require to be much of a mathematician
to figure out the difference between 94.75
with 5 per cent, off and 56 to 56.60 dead
weight. More than that, a live hog is
not a pleasant animal to handle, and as
they have to bo delivered at the railway
station, sometimes some milds distant,
the farmer will find he saves time as well
as money by butoberiug at home. Kill
your hogs and try Brussole market is the
advice we offer you.

TEES Ottawa Free Press remarks :—
Joseph Williams, a Gedsrich salt manta
Lecturer, whose annual output is from
forty thousand to fifty thousand barrels,
is evidently not afraid to compete with
Amsrioan manufacturers in a free mar.
kat. He writes to the papers in favor of
unrestricted reciprocity with the United
States. Mr. Williams also condemns
the proposal of some pusillanimous salt
men to secure a monopoly of the Cana-
dian market by inducing the Dominion
government to place a high duty upon
salt imported from Great Britain and
the il'eut Indies. "f do not," says Mr.
Williams, "approve of the imposition of
heavier duties onlangli-h salt. It appears
to mo disgracefoI, cowardly, to ask for
ourselves the removal ca a burden, and
with the same breath petition to have a
heavier one put on the shoulders of our
Nova Scotia and New Brunswick country.
men." These sentiments bave a truly
Cauadian ring about thein. Manu-
facturers like Mr. Williams, who are
prepared to face competition no matter
from whence it Domes, are a oredit to
Canada. One man of the Williams
stamp is worth more to the country than
a hundred of those who are constantly
forming combinations to make them-
selves rich by robbing the general public,
while at the same time preaching the
humiliating doctrine that Canadians are
such a poor lot that they cannot stand
competition in any line of business.

and were choked to death.

The English church people at Ford.
with are talking of erecting a brink

becoming badly dilapidated and is a
continual cause of expense for repairs.
The wife of Mr. Halliday, of Clinton,
who resides near the river, made• an
attempt to commit suicide by drinking
some Paris Green. She has been in
depressed spirits for some time, which
was evidently the cause of her action.
S. A. Moffatt, of Stanley, has threshed
his peas and the new variety of pea call-
ed the Mummy, of which he bad two
bushels, and sowed in the one field with
the same cultivation with the Common

KA Mr Little, of Hullett, exhibited in
Clinton the other day a specimen of the
feline speoies which he had killed on bis
farm. The animal was up a tree and, it
being dark, Mr Little could not dis-
tinguish what it was, but the flaming
eyes of the boastie was a light unto him
and he fired in that direction and bagged
the game. But not literally at the time,
for when the brute Dame tumbling down
Mr Little made tracks for the house, not
knowing but what it might be a bear cud,
fearing he had not killed it, he preferred
a fast walk to the house rather than risk
an embrace from bruin. It measured
ve feet three inches from its front
sinewy legs to the hind onee, when
stretched out, and it stood two feet high.
