Bat the Governmsnt cannet possibly succeed un- less the farmers co-vpetate irrespective of Men of al! mutually take party or other considerations. parties and creeds must part in the enterprise or cannot wholly succes ful The opposition of an organ of publ c al rot : } j such as the I atriot is, therefore, the more to be deprecated. Surely we ought to be prepared to sink party prejudices in the face of an enterprise designed to benefi the whole country The Patriot is, n doubt, sincerely anxious that our markets sould be thrown open to the 17 cent oats, the 1@ cent corn and the $8 pork of the prairies. But while battling towards that - , . | : great end,it might alvyo, we think, give some countenance to the co-operation of! our farmers in an effort to place pork an: other dressed meats, as well as dairy pro ducts, upon the markets of Great Britain aud the world. Advices from Quebec state that the Government's proposal has been received there with “ the greatest eothusi asm.” The farmers and the press of this Province ought to be no lesa enthusiastic than those of Quebec and Cntario Our interests in the scheme are even greater We are in a position to make it beeause we are thouzands market. have large quantities of cheese, than theirs. more out of When we butter, pork, beef and fruit to export, there will of miles nearer the be no difficulty in persuading ocean steam- ers to call at the port in this Province in take them direct to the market, thus saving a which these products are stored and evnsiderable amount for freights as well as the cost of transhipment at Halifax or Montreal.

The best meats only will be placed upon the British warket.

It is believed that when meats has been established, the trade mey be lert to take care of itself just as the cheese industry, in many parts of Canada, ray now be left. Professor Robertson is re- ported as having said that he is convinced that there is a great future in store for the Canadian dressed meat trade. He | Oints out, too, that farmers in the Maritime Pro- vinces will, under the echeme which he has matured, be freed to a great extent from the competition of feeders in Ontario and the Northwest. In the course ofa speech delivered at Guelph he went fully into the preject. He pointed out that the masumer wants good, tasty and wholesome food.

(The Oxfords have Leen almo solidly Grit since Coufed ration ) What is the reason of the co'lapse of the o ice great Liberal party in the Province 1 Ontario. Itis not far to seek.

Waterloo to Mr. Snider, who is Fupp-rt our own Dayies’ double attitude to the Chignecto Ship Railway, -—I denounced that work in Parliament, aud he promised the peuple of Ambezst that it he fornd it was in the interest of Carada Le would go for it with both hand«, “‘Thirlly, according to the Patriot, he made a cor- rupt proposition to go for this “frau -windle” if Mr. Douglass aud the otber friends of the ship raiiway would support tle partys ee Bat the bad entourage of Mr. Laurier is above all other things what is pulling his party to the ground. blcShane, twice re- ported by the courts fur corrupt practices and once di-« ialified for the same reason, is his candidate in Montreal Centre. It matters net that Whaleu, the contractor for the Quebee courthouse, declared on bis oath that McShane “bicd him white” by extorting boodle contributions while the contract was go ng on. It mattera not that even Mercier had to tura McShane outof the Public Worss Department for the Proviace of Quebec. It matters Lot that the Montreal Wituess, a strong Liber- al paper, declares that no honest meu can vote for McShane. It matters not tha: ex- Mayor Beaugrand, of La Patrie, protests against the bad element which surrounds the leader. Still Laurier crys, “Give me James McShane for Montreal Centre!” The party leader who tries to force such a candidate as James McShane on the great- est commercial constitaency in Canada cannot expect the support of honest men. But bad as McShané ie, be is not woree than a large number of others who eur- round Mr. Laurier. There is Pacaud— who kept the toll gate for Mercier, and who intereepted amongst other large sums, $100,000 of the Provincial subsidies for the Baie Chaleur Railway. There is Charies Langelier, who built a fine house for himaelf out of the money whieh he as- sisted Pacaud to take from the Govern- ment of which he wasa member. There is Tarte, who bad a hand in almost every deal of the Mercier regime, and Beausolie! and Prefontaine eharged with boodling of the worst kind. With = the above named and many others of similar character who form a kiad of bedvguard for Laurier in the Pravince of Quebec, respectable men Ike Sir Gus- tave Joly and ex-Mayor Beaugrand who, form almost hereditary feeling, wish to work with the Libera! party, are thrust in the background by the preference which Laurier shows for the bad element of the party. It is high time to inquire a@ little more closely thaa has hitherto been done into Mr, Laurier’s own complicity with the tlack deeds of thissinister gang. It is not forgotten that it came out in evidence tha: he waz present in Mercier’s house when certain $5,000.00 notes were made and endorsed, the pro- ceeds of which were used for advancing his political interests, and which were afterwards paid out tof the Bae Chaleur subsidies. A man is judged by the com- pany he keeps. When Ex-Mayor Beau- grand and the Witness are forced to cry out in the anguith of their hearts again-t the bad associations of their Leaier, it is not much wonder that the independent people of Ontario should turn away from a party apparently abandened to t.e -on trol of Pacaud, McShane, Tarte, Langelier and others of the same flavor. It is the hope of Canada that the: grand stand of the peopleof North Oustariv on the 12th inst. may be repeated in Cardwell on the 24th andin Montreal Centre an} Jacques Cartier on the 30th inst. What about our own Island? Are there no rumblings of dissatisfaction with Grt- ism to be heard in our Island home? Is tle pubiic conscience here less sensitive than in Ontario and Quevec ? We cannot believe it. The number of honest Liber- als in our midt who are openly denounc- ing both the local ani federal leaders of the party affords the best grounds for hope that when appealed tothe people of Prince Edward Island will be found at the back of honesc Sir Mackenzie Bowell and his colleagues, faithfully assisting, by their votes, in build- ing up our country on the lines of tolera- tion toall creeds and classes, honesty ir ad- ministration, the development of the pub- lic resources by constructing, as heretofore, useful railways and other public works, and care‘ully and vigorously maintaining tie National Policy, which has already done so much fur Canada. Lhe Peters combination, with its shamefal extrava- gance, ite bare-faced corruption, its appall- | ing deficits and its severe taxation should be an object lesson.

The neces- sary steps have been taken to meet al! claims for interest and other obligations due Jan. lst.

A Railway Under the Hammer, Torexa, Kansas, Dec. 13.—The entire Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe railway system was sold at auction yesterday fur vixty million dollars.

Agricultural Party in Parliament Loxpox, December 13.—The annual congress ¢f the national agricultural ynion met ye-terday, under the presidency of Earl Winchelsea. A large numeer of conservative peers and m-mbers of parlia- ment were present and unanimously re- solved to form an agriculturs] party in parliament to urge the yoverament to relieve land of its exi-ting unfair share of public burdens, to readjust the beer duiy in favor of British grown barley a:d hops, and to introduce Jegislation for the ef- fectual protection of home products against all forms of fraudulent competion. oer —The Guardian touches a sympathetic chord when it refera its wrong report of the North Onterio election to a “typo- graphical error.” Such errors ase cer- tainly annoying, and are common to Tue Examines as to other daily papers. The Guardian stands excused this time. — —A London correspondent writes con- cerning the prohibition of the impo-t.tion of sheep at British poris : “The ostensible reason for this action is the prevalence of the scab disease among North American sheep, but the real motive is the imperative demand upon the present Conservative Government from the rural classes to which the Government Jargely owes its existence, fur protective measures on behalf of the agricultural interests. An exhaustive government enquiry was made recently regarding the scab disease, but experts refuse Lo certify that it is contay ious or infectious. Moreover, it appears that though this disease has been preval ent in England many years, no measure has been taken to ex’ irpate it, as hus been done in cases of really contagious diseases awong live stock.” —--——_—— When a gown can be called a “poem,” then we have obviously reached the per- fection of grace and beauty.
