bribery and corruption. On the contrary it proves that, though politicians in the States are corrupt, the mass of the com- mon people is honest at heart. Large amounts were, without doubt, used by both parties. It is possible that the Republi- cans used more money that the Democrats. But it is not possible that so many millions of voters as go to make up the overwelmn- ing Republican majority were bought by money. Wemay now hope for better times in the States. The wheels of industry will revolve once more, for confidence in the measure of value for the present and future has been restored. We may also look for ahighering up of the wall of protection. But this will not,so lovg as our defences are maintained, materially affect Canada. The people of the United States have for eale, as a general ru'e, the same products as the people of Canada, aod with the people of Canada, find their chief market in the free ports of Great

Britain. We may regret that what we can sell for use in the United States is likely to be eubj-cted

to higher duties. But the experience of seventeen years haz proved that we have only to keep up our own tarifi aod hold our own markets for our own people, to maintain the industries and prosperity of Canada, even though another McKinley taritf should be enacted.

THE LOBSTER SEASON.

A masority of the lobster packers pre- sent at the meeting held by Hon. Mr. Davies bore testimony to the excellence of the rales and regulations made by the late Government. To the breach of these rules and regulations they for the most part attributed the redaced product of the lubster fishery. In view of the depleted ¢ ndition of the fishery, and the necessity of improving it, most of the packers who expressed an opinion said that they were quite willing that the seeson should open about the first of May’and end at or about

the 30th of June. The pxckers of the South Side, however, with one or two exceptions, asked that the season for

them should be two months, from August to Octob-r. We publish to-day the impor- tant paper submitted by Mr. Tidmarsh, who deals with the whole matter as one having authority to speak. The Minister of Marine and Fisheries has obtained a great deal of valuable information as a result of the meet ng, aud we may hope that any changes he may adopt will tend towards the permanence of the Job+ter fishery —one of the most valnable sources of our wealth. Appreciation of tbe Min- ister’s business-like mode of procedure was shown by the passage of an unani mous vote of thanks, which was proposed by John McLean, Esq., of Sourie. — > 0 ee PROSPECTS OF THE MARKETS.

Tuerz has been an advance in England in marly all kinds of agricultural pro- ducts. According tothe London Econo- mist, wheat has in two months gone up 5 shillings a quarter, and barley 7 shillings, hogs 6d per 20 pounds, cattle £1 to £2, and sheep 44. to Ga., Irish creamery but- ter per huodredweight from 96+. to 106s. and 116s., prime Danish butter from 98s- to 104s. and 122s., fine cheddar cheese from 56s. and 624. to 68s. to 72s., prime clover hay from 80s. and 903. to 90s. and 954.,and there has been a rise of a half- penny in the highest quotation for down wool. The Economist believes that wheat is likely to be higher rather than lower, there being a real and substantial deficit in the world’s crop, and in regard to the other agricultural commodities it says the advance in each case appears to rest upon the relations of the present supply to the demand, and cannot be regarded as acci- dental or speculative. If the Economist is right, and there is no reason to doubt that it is, the Canadian farmer has a good eye before him, and he will, as the Mail and Empire remarks, regret that the earnest efforts of the late Government to promote shipping facilities have not been adc«quately carried on by those at present in power.

It is possible too that potatoes will bring # higher price than they have for sone time past. We hear that the crop is short in most of the New England states and in Ontario and Quebec. Prices are running high in Aroostook, but those who have stored their crops in cellars or potato houses are disposed to hold them for @ while longer.

Commenting upon the improved tone of the markete “The Co-Operative Farmer” save :—

“Brother farmers, stick to your work, keep down the cost of production, make the best possible quality, don’t be afraid to brand your name and address upon every- thing you eell and we wiil guarantee you a living profit on your work whether prices are up or down.”

absolutely destroyed. or whether it te handed down to posterity as one of the prominent resourses of the Province. Per- ronally Tam opposed to making any rmaternal changes in the packirg seafon. I think it would be well to try the law we have first and then if that is a failure why let us bave another. My own opinion is that the decrease in lobsters is due, and entirely due, to the illegal fishing that bas been curried on during the last six or e:ght years.

When the lobster busivess first started out on the Island, and for very many years

afterwards, when the lobsters appreached the shores in _ the spring they were generally distri- buted along the entire coast. Some

sections may, owing to certain local con- ditions extremely favorable to the habits of the lobsters, have had a slight ad- vantage over Other sections. But they were very generally distrivuted. A fail- ure to recurea good catch ino any section was unknown. To illustrate Low surely and steadily bas been the decrease of the lobster in sections where illegal tishing has been carried on I will give statistics taken from a factory situated in one of these sections. Duriug a period of s1x seasons at that factory the average number of 1 Jb cans to each trap fished was in 189], 24 22-26; in 1892 it was 16}; in 1893 it was 13};i0 1894 it was 124; in 1895 it wae 7j, and in 1896 it was 54 I may here state that prior to 1891 in this particular section illegal fishing bad been carried on and the fisheries were in @ somewhat depleted condition when I went there. lo contradistinction tothis I[ will give statistics from a factory situated in a section where prior to 1891 and up to 1894 the law was very well observed. These also cover a period of six seasons. In 1891 the average number of i Ib. cans - to each trap fished was 30}; in 1892 it was 12}; in 1693 it was 13 15-25; in 1894 it was 14}; in 1895 it was 15 3-25 and in 1896 it was 12}.

The alarming decrease from 1891 to 1892 was not due to over-fishing. That year the space between each lath on the traps was by regulation 1} inches, and fifieen days was taken off the season, mak- ing the close season begin on July Ist in- stead of the 15th ; and another cause was that the high price paid for canned lots-er: in 1891 induced a number of persons to go into the business, resulting in there being more traps fished on that ground in 1892 than there ever was before or since that date. Since 1892, as the oumber of traps fished decreased, the average number of caus to the trap increased, proving to my mind that the lobsters in that section had received sufficient protection. Itis a well- known fact that the demand for extensions of the fishing season and sectional dif- ferences of season comes, and invari- ably comes, from those portions of the country where illegal fishing has been car- riedon. A man whom I think is at pre- sent in this hall told me only a few days azo that he fished at West Cape the first spring a Jobster factory was operated there, and that it was the best place for lobster fishing he ever saw, and that lob-

sters continued to be pileuty there fur some years. I am told that at this once favored locality there

are very few lobsters taken during the spring months. What is the cause of this? It looks to me very much as though the cause has been illegal fishing. At Cape Traverse, where the law has been mest rigidly observed, there is no such thing as a scarcity of lobsters. Lobsters were more plentiful there this season than they ever were before, even in the infancy of the business.

And now about the proposed change. On the North Side and on the east and west endsof P.E. Island, fishing in the fall would, it appears to me, be impracti cable owing to the exposed nature of the coast. Theonly part of P. E. Island where it would be at a!l possible to fish with any degree of success is on that por- tion of the coast lying between Cape Bear aud West Point, and it is very doubtful if, in this section, it could be carried on pro- fiably. During the shelling period, which begins about July 10th, and up to at least Aug. 20th, the lobster, in my opinion, is unfit for human food. What it is like after that period I have no prac- tical knowledge, but I am told that after September lst the condition of the lobster very much improves. If the evidence in favor of fall fishing is sufficient to war- rant its adoption, I think it would be very unwise to have fishing begin before Aug. 20th. During the mouth of September the weather becomes very stormy. It is very difficult to keep boats on an exposed coast and not one-twentieth of the gear could be landed. Every canner knows what adiflicult matter it is to land gear in the month of July, which is the most moderate month in the year. In the month of November it would be almost impossible. Another great oljection to sectional difference ot season is that when the factories on the north shores of Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia. and New Brunswick closed down every canner who happeved to have any supplies left over from his spring’s packing wou!d come over to the south coast of the Island, put up a little shanty and begin fishing. Nothing could be more easily done and nothing is probable. The result or this would be, all the lobsters would be caught up in a short time. Itis said that lobsters approach very{near to the shore ia the fall of the year, and that they can be taken in very large quantities. Une hundred traps set- ting in a square mile of ground may aver - age, say, 15 lobsters to the trap. But this

is no argument that if the number of traps were increased to 3,000, a3 would surely

of P. E. Island, but if the evidence that comes before the Hon. Minister should in his judgment be sufficient to warrant his making a changein the law, I beg to assure him that he shall have my _ hearty co-operation and support in carrying it into effect and in giving it a fair trial. Whatever law comes into force should be made permanent as these repeated changes very much unsettle the business. ee

ADVICE AS TO LIGHT HOGS,

Discussing the light hog question the other day a farmer said: “May be it is the interest of the packers to have the far- mers stop raising heavy hogs; these pack- ers are not working for us.” To this far- mer we offer the following from the St. Louis Reporter: True enough the packers are working for themselves and their own families, but they are heavily supplied with products of heavy hogs, and until they have sold large amounts of the pro duce they may not be able to pack and store another “heavy” hog crop, except it be at extreme low prices, therefore the wise farmer will try to produce something there will surely be a market for. Packers are under no obligation to buy what tliey do not want, and they are certainly not going to buy anything they know they cannot sell. The only way to get back to decent prices for hogs is to study the wants of the people. It is useless to send to mar- ket the kind that buyers cannot use, and it is certainly a friendly act to farmers when the packers warn them that the glut in provisions is large enough to cause heavy hog production to be undesirable for atime at least. There are peeple-who keep telling the farmers that they are vic- tims of the packers. It is perfectly legi- timate fora farmer to make money, but it is otten charged as a crime for a packer or manufacturer to be prosperous or wealthy. All such ideas are nonsensical. The farmer, merchant and manufacturer are working to the same end, and one class is not superior to the other. If it were not, for packers and large operators using hundreds of thousands. of dollars and buying stuff for the sake and hope of a possible profit, if it were not for the baoker and corporaticns and the monied interests of the country $10,000,000 worth of hogs sold during the !ast six - months would be eating their heads off in Missouri, Towa and Illinois for wart of a market. The farmers received their money long ago, the packers have the goods. The product is worth Jess than the live hogs co:t. These same packers are working day and night to extend their markets. They are the men who will have to buy the bulk of the next hog crop. The farmer is interested in the prosperity of their interests are identical in many ways, and especially is it to the interest of the farmer that he should try to produce what the packer can buy and having bought, can cure and sell to good advantage.

UNITED ACTION IN EUROPE,

A late despatch from Paris says that in the Chamber of Deputies on Tuesday, the minister of foreign affairs, M. Hanotaux, made an important statemeat regarding a remark, during the course of which he said “The powers have done their duty and accord has been established among the povers who recognized that isolated action must be averted, and that common action would not effect the integrity of Turkey. During the Czar’s visit, a precise exchange of views occurred on the points before parliament, and United Europe will be able to show the Sultan that he must give his subjects security and peace.”

After several criticisras upon the part of M. Jaures, the Socialist deputy, the order of the day was adopted by a vote of 402 to 90, thus approving of the government’s statement.

OBITUARY,

It is with great regret and sorrow that we chronicle the sad death of Florence E. Huth, of Epping N.‘H.,on 25th August last, dearly beloved wife of Gus. E. Huth, leaving one litt'e girl and a sorrowful hus- band, also a large circle of friends and acquaintances to mourn their sad loss. Also, on 20th Sept. last, Mary, the beloved wife of John N. Jenuning», of Manchester, N.H. The above were the only two daughters of Peter and Catherine McLean, of Dandas, which is a very heavy blow on the parents and bereaved family to be separ- ated at an early age but we know what is our loss is their gain. Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord.

Her remains were in- terred on Sunday afternoon at the Metho- dist Cemetery, Vernon River, the Rev Mr. McConnell officiating. The burial was all that Christian hearts could wish, After service in the Church, a congre- gation of kindred and friends gathered at he grave tocommend her soul and body to Aimighty God in hope of the glorious resurrection. Tothose who knew her intimately she was endeared by ber bright ‘and cheerful disposition, her charitable sympathetic nature, and her ‘ devotion 't honesty and truth. To all, she has left! the precious memory of “a virtuous woman,” and the heritage of ber Christian example.
