Making Them Pay For It.

Ix Boston the prices of good mackerel range from $18 to $40 per barrel. It thus appears that our cousins have to pay sweetly to maintain the exclusive policy ander which United States fishermen are kept out of the Canadian fishing grounds and Cana- dian fishermen are compelled to pay a heavy duty for the privilege of selling in the United States markets the fish they eateh. If our cousins would but admit our

Ash, potatoes, horses and other raw pro- ducts inte their markets free of duty, their fishermen miyht have free access to our fisheries, and so obtain cheaper fish, cheaper potatoes, cheaper horses, ete. When will the€ see that their interests will be best served by doing business with Canada on

terms which are free and fair?

Wounded in the House of His Friends.

Hvuenes, Esq., of County Line, has hac a bitter experience of the Grits.

Messrs. Yeo and Perry are both residents

JoHn W

of the western end of Prince County ; and Mr. Hughes and his friends, not unnatural- ly, thought that it would be fairer and bet- ter for the party, if one of the Grit candid- ates were aresident of the eastern end. So it was proposed at the Grit convention that Mr. Hughes should be one of the can-

didates. The

statements before the couvention were mis- representel to the County newspapers. Por, in the last Summerside Journal, we find the following letter from Mr. Hughes:

* Sim,--{n your remarks anent the Conven- tion in Ludlow Hall, as published in last weck’s iavte, Tam: made to say, that I an nounced myself as having contro! of a number of votes, sufficient to carry this evenly balanced County. What I did say, was, that in the event of our party thea acknowledging the right of an eastern min, and by giving me the nominatioa as such, | had the honest oer of the key of the County that would ualock a treasare ejual to tae certain return of Mr. Yeo aud myself. 1 had instructions to say so, bat did not say or insinuate that on any other ~unditions I had the coatrol or even tne pro- mise of any Conservative aid or influence. I also said I was taere as the medium of a peace otfer.ug oa the above coadition being complied with, not otherwise.

Huping you will publish this in explanatjon, lam,

Yours very truly, J. W. Hvenes.

County Line, Dee. 6th, 1886.

The misrepresentation of which Mr. Hughes complains must have emanated from the Party friends by whom he was re- jected !

It is not wonderful that Mr. Hughes and his friends are indignant. They would be more than wortal if they did not resent such treatment. First to be rejected, then to be belied : it is too bid.

An anomymous correspondent of the Joyrna!,who sympathises with Mr. Hughes, writes :—

‘* Mr. Hughes cortainly has stronger claims ‘pon the people than Mr. Perry, who has een repeatedly rejected by them. Mr. Hughes

presents a very large and influential num-

ber of Irish Catholics in the county ; but Mr. Yeo knows that the Irish Catholies do not sympathize with the Riel agitation, hence he must have a Frenchman with him to catch the French vote. Mr. Yeo has learned since his enirking of the vote on the Ric] question, that tae Cathoiic Cuurch does not countenance marder and rebellion, and he cannot appeal to the prejudice of the Catholics of this county amd fepresent Riel as a virtuous member of their church. Mr. Yeo's only resort is to ap- peal to he warm-hearted and. sympathetic Freachmen and represent & martyr who lost his life im defending their race, and beg them to place him in a position to resent the insu!t to their national sentiment, by re- electing him to oppose the Government and the laws of the realm.

“I think Mr. Yeo is deceiving himself. The Frencli people are not so excitable or 30 ignorant as he would have them to be, and it will require more than Mr. Perry's influence to convince them tliat Riel (misguided man that he was) was not justly punished for a ter. rible crime

* With regard to Mr. Hughes, one of Mr. Yeu's anoporters and admirers who attended tae Conveution, said in the presence of the

writer, that a matter of fonr or tive hundred dollars would settle Mr. Hughes, and make bim ev »w Mr, Perry’s nomin . “No ck abt Mr. 1 eo nd his fo lowers kn WwW he power of money in election matters, and probably in convention, but I aun greatly mie- taken in \ hes if he can be set aside so asily as ti

Riel as

iow tion,

¥ imagine.”

We cordmlly agree with this correspon- dentof the Journa!, The Grits will pro- bably find to their cost that Mr. Hughes is neither a wor to be trodden upon with im- punity, nor adog to lick the band which emites.

ively promoted by the selection of temper ance men as candidates on behalf of the up- posing parties and the election of none but temperance men as representatives of the people in Parliament. [t says :- ‘‘ But in order to gain what all temperance men devoutly wish, we think there need be, and should be, no sacrifice of political princi. »les on either side. If a temperance man be- ieves that the best interests of the country are safer in the hands of the Conservatives let him so vote, but let him see that his can. didates are pledged to support prohibition And the temperance man who is convinced that the Liberals will do best for the country, let him record his ballot in then favor, but let him also see that thos whom he supports will carry ou his views on the prohibition question In short, let temperance men see that the saine prohibition pledge is administered to al our candidates alike, whether liberals or con servatives. We don't mean that they shoul be pledged to any particular line of action, 0: even to give their votes if the question it brought up for mere party purposes, as we have known it to be done; but that when the tem perance ‘people speak with united voice, thei) representatives should be prepared at once go forwa;d. Let everything be done square and above board; let temperance men act wisely and firmly; let our candidates see that we are honest and earnest is this matter,and whether after next Dominion election, we shall be re presented at Ottawa, by Conservatives o1 Liberals, we feel that the cause of prohibitior ean be left safely in their hands. - _———— ——> GP — ~- The Montreal Gazette fears the report } : +1 that the Queen will announce the settle- ment of the fisheries difficulty on the open ing of Parliament is not well founded, and says:—‘‘ Nothing is known here of a Cunadian representative having gone te Washington in connection with the matter,

The Latest Importation.

We are pleased tu learn that the Guern (sometimes called Alderney cattle) imported by Mr.<E. R. Brow last summer, and which have been held for the regulation time in quarantine in Halifax, arrived in this city iast night. The heifer Adele 3rd, No. 1337, is a beautiful, deep, rich orange fawn. She is three years old. and carrying calf to Goldfern. Adele 3rd is vut vf Adele, No. 445, by St. Andrew 4th, No. 30. She was a prize winner in the class for tirst-class heiters atthe Roya Guernsey Show in June, 1856. The bul Gipsy Boy, No. 319, out of Caroline, No 1451, by Prestige, No. 208, is a solid fawn, with white inarkings, and is a yearling.

These cattle are pure-bred Guernseys, and are registered inthe Guernsey Herd Book. The Guernseys are deep milkera, and are considered second to none as_ but ter makers. They are strong, hardy cattle. Persons can see them by going to Mr. Pickard’s stables, north side (Queen Square.

The Aberdeen Daily News has the follow- ing concerning a gentleman of whom some of our readers have heard :—

“The Hon, J. H. Fletcher, of this, the 13th Legisiative District, has been prominently men- tioned in this part of the territory asa suitable candidate for speaker of the next bouse. It is with pleasure thatthe Neiwws notes and endorse- is candidacy. Mr. Fietcher. so. far as heard from, received the iargest majority ior represen- tative of any of the candidates in Dakota. A gen- tleman of good ability and large experience, he ig preeminently a man of the- people — pledyed by inclination and actual life to devote nis energies to their requirements. Tuat he wil be free fruin jobvers, and a clean and upright member, goes without saying to those who know him best. When the factof hiscandidacy be- comes generally known, the Newsia contident that Central Dakota, at least, w.ll give him a Warm and unanimous support, He is in the prime of life, active. enduring, thorough!y alive in every essential to the growing needs of cur great commonwealth. The News will be satisfied to see so Worhy an hooaor bestowed upon #4 man to eminently qualified in every reapect. The’ mem- bers of tne Lou. e Would honor theiwselves by so doing.”

Boston Fish Market.

(isoston Journal.) The salt tish trade is now passing through its dull seasun, and nobody looks for any increased activity until after Christmas ; but the local demand is larger than usual forthe last month of the year, and the market isin a healthy condition. There are no large stocks of eny kind of fish in dealers’ hands, and the general feeling is that prices are now at the lowest poivt, and that any changes which may occur after the opening of next season's trade will be on the rising scale. All kinds of barreled fish, including mackerel, herring, alewives, salmon and shad, are remarkably scarce, and if the winter's demand comes up to anywhere near its usual proportions dealers will be cleaned out in a very short time. The mackerel situation is attracting particular attention, and while

In Boston and other places no close estimate can be made, but people in the trade say that 5,000 barrels would cover all the stock outside of Gloucester and Portland, which would make the on- tire supply about 11,000 barrels.

The trish Situation.

Mr. Smalley’s cable letter to the NV. Y. Titonne, from London, is as follows: Eng- lish expectation of a quict winter in Ire- iand has been rudely disturbed during the past week. The English idea was that a kind of tacit truce had been arranged between the government and the National League, and, thus far, tulerably well »bserved on both sides. Mr. Dillon's speeches sounded the first note of alarm, ind the decision of the government to pro- secute Mr. Dillon and proclaim league ueetings was equivalent to an open decla- vation of war. The excuse is that Mr. Dillon was pressing upon the tenantry the

ideption of Unrated Treland’s plan of . .

campaign. This, they urge, was to

ignore their own efforts to stop

evictions and induce landlords tw

make all reasonable concessions, Probably Ur. Dillon thought the government were having matters too much their own way, ind there was danger that the hold of the National League on the people would be shaken. His movement, at any rate, shows signs otf having been adopted after ‘onsultation with the English Liberals. Taere is no important criticism of his pro- gramme inthe English Libor I press. If they io not altogether approve, they acquiesce. john Morley, who has been speaking with fullness and his usual pugnent force at fawick and Edinburgh, refuses to denounce Vr. Dillon, and declares that itis for the ourts to determine whether his acts are Ulegal or not. Perhaps the most striking all is the adhesion of Archbishop Walsh co the new doctrine. The interview with che Archbishop in the Pel! Mall Gozette is me of those pieces of pure journalism of which Mr. Stead so well value. Its effect in England may not be very great, for the average John Bull can- aot be got to see that it matters what a Roman Catholic Archbishop thinks or says many subject; but in Ireland the influence is immense. -Dr. Walsh, avowedly after some misgivings of conscienee, has persuad- ad himself that tenants may rightly deter- mine for themselves what proportion of their agreed rent they will pay, and that they may pay this, not to their landlords, but to trustees of their own choosing. The sovernment are likejy to find it difficult to uake much headway in the face of this spiscopal manifesto,either with prosecutions x proclamations. The Pall Mall Gazette roes sv far as to say that, amid the general wreck of organized institutions in Lreland, he National League is the one surviving sulwark against anarchy. That does not represent the general English opinion, but there is grave doubt, even among turies, whether the present policy of the Irish secretary is likely wo ensure order or pro- luce a political success. ANOTHER VIEW. A London correspondent of the Boston Daily Herald writes :

All that has actually happened up to the ime | write is that another meeting has een proclaimed in Sligo, and that the two thief jaw oflicers of the crown have been rdered to remain at the castle instead of sing down, as they intended, to the wsizes. Among the probabilities is the ovoclamation of the league, and this it is 1ow well undersfood would have been an complished fact but for the striking de- claration of the Archbishop of Dublin in ‘avor of the morality of the new plan of campaign. Itis even said thatthe step was urged by several members of the sabinet, and itis quite certain that the landlords have sent shoals of letters to min- isters strongly denouncing them for not having taken it long since. Together with the Archbishop’s declaration, the know- ledge that the chapels and churches might be used tocarry onthe organization has also prevented, so far, the suppression of the League. It is probable, tov, that meetings had for the purpose of collecting

the rents refused by the landlords will be

in future proclaimed, so far as speech- making goes, but such progress has now been made with the campaign that no more speeches are necessary. More bodies of tenants are now clamoring for members of the parliamentary party to take thelr money than can well be accommodated. The prosecution of John Dillon, as might have been expected, instead of frightening them, has stimulated them to rise against unrelenting rackrenters. On the whole, the government are in a fearful quandary. But what, perhaps, is frightening them most of all is the fact that there are spies in the popular interest in the Castle itself, and that they cannot havea single secret there that is not immediately made known to the public through the United Ireland news- paper. What will happen to-morrow in Sligo remains to be seen, but if last Sun- day's experience is to be repeated it will make the government a perfect laughing stock. Scarcely less damaging to them has been the brutal and wholly unjustifiable conduct of the police in Cork, where this perfectly peaceful and legal meetings have been dispersed at the point of the bayonet, and at least one member of parliament dan- gerously wounded, without a moment’s warning having been given of the assault. Ministers are relying greatly on the speeches that will be made a day or two hence at the liberal unionist conference, and no doubt these speeches will be in strong denunciation of the present course of the popular leaders in Ireland ; but, though the conference will be largely attended, it will not have much influence, for 1 speak from personal knowledge when I say that already the result of the Irish educational work in England and Scotland, and of the liberal leaders, has been the return of a

very considerable number of liberal union- ist electors to the Gladstonian fold. Tha misrepresentations under which they

‘seceded last summer are being rapidly ‘brushed aside, and numbers of them in meny constituencies are themselves saying that Gladstone was vight after all. I learn that one momber of the late cabinet ex- pres:ed thé early conversion of Trevelyan, bat I must say taatb I myself do not look forward with any confidence to that result.
