BOSWALL the Cheapest and most Newsy Paper April 26, 660—tf published tm Provinees, +: Thriving THE NAT { + ndietries ICNAL GACODS.,. A reporter «f the Halifax Jéerald has been visiting ths manufacturing establish- ments at Truro. He found them all ina flourishing condition. ‘* Clish & Crowe’s Foundry” is doing three times the business it ever did belore. ‘* The Canada Peg Fac tory” is now supplying the Quebec, Mon- treal and Toronto markets, which were formerly supplied by the United States, employs thrice the number of men it did twe years ago, is deing a splendid busi- ness, andis putting in $3000 worth of ad- ditional machinery. W. E. McRobert & Sons, Furniture Warerooms, have had ‘a great run this season. ** What has been the average increase in the price of furniture since the National Policy came imto operation!’ asked the reporter of-ene of the partners. ‘* Increase?” he said, in reply, some- what astonished at the question, ** there has been no in¢rease—not in our establish- ment, 2t least. The National Policy. has induced us tv pay special. attention to cer- tain lines, now very generally in demand, and the large sales we have had for these articles have enabled us very matarially to reduce the prices. For instanee: Parlor suites, which we are now selling for $85, we sold under the old tariff for $110. (Having purchased a suite from the Doctor in the fall of 1877, at the latter figure, which he now sells at $25 less, this state. ment was particularly convincing.) Lonn- ges which then brought $1650, now sell for $14.50; sofas which we then sold at $6, we now sell for $5, and so on all through the list. The reason ,of - this decrease in price is that under the new tariff we make a speci- alty ofthe manufacture of these articles, and the sale ef iarge quantities enables us toturn them out at much sinaller prices than formerly.” ‘*That is a preity effective reply to these people who deviared tliat protection would raise the price of everything,” 1 remarked. ‘About as effective as anything that | can imagine,” he replied. ** How does the competition of the Upper Provinces effect your business !” ‘* Very little. We are not among those who cry for ‘ protection against Canada.’ We preter to compete with them. Indeed we are competing with them so successfully that we are driving them—slowly but surely—out of the Maritime Provinces market. Of course this cannot be done in a day or two, but we are confident of doing it before long. Take the item Of séfas, for instance. Cheap sofas are an article that two years ago 1 could not believe we could compete with the Torento, London and Hamilton makers in. but we made the experiment ; we succeeded; there was a difference of fifty cents freight in our favor, and now there are very few Ontario sofas coming into this Provinces. And more than that, ol customers teil us that they prefer the ‘home-made.’ ‘“In the face of these facts, Doctor, how do you account for the fact that some ap- parently intelligent people are feund to stand up and say that the National Policy is ‘ruining the country,’ and that the only kind of protection Nova Scotia wants, is protection against the Upper Provinces 7” ‘*T cannot understand how any honest man can refuse to admit that there hes been a great change for the better since the peo- ple of this country. adopted the Nationa! Policy, or how any man can refuse to credit the preseut prosperous state of the country tv that policy. Of course there has been a genera) revival of business, but that has been caused very largely by the change of tariff. Aithough Nova Scotia has received a great impulse from the National Policy, yet she is a good way behind in the competitive race, because, as I said some time ago in a ietter to the Sun, Ontario is far ahead of us in manufacturing. She has the most impro- ved,machinery end experienced and skilful workmen, andis nowenabled to keep pace with her enterprising neighbor Unele Sam, and consequently so much ahead of us, for the simple reason that a quarter of a century ago, she adopted a protective tariff, and became enabled thereby to establish immense mapu- factaring industries just along the border line, so that now when the new National Policy his practically driven the Americans out of our markets, she -isable torespond tothe in- creased demand suddenly sprung upon her; while Nova Scotia was content to sit quietly at rest with her 64 and 10 per cent. tariffs instead of rising to the necessity of the times and being true to her natural position as a manufacturing province, by adopting a policy whieh would have placed her far ahA® in the race of development. Thus we are just now arriving at where Ontario started from a quar- ter of acentury since She would, therefore, naturally have an advantage overus. Had we followed Ontario in adopting protection about tho year 1855, we should have been far ahead of her now. But even as it is, we shall overtake her, for, with our acknowledged greater manufacturing facilities, we cannot long remain in the rear. If our people would turn their attention to manufactyring in ear nest, Ontario would soon be crying out for protection against Nova Scetia.” stiri ae Conia Enterprise. Last WEEK an industrious burglar in the States went through a Pullman car and succeeded in robbing ali the passengers without »eing detected. This enterprising burgiar will probably teach those passen- gers a lesson, viz., to be a little sharper themselves. It is a surprising fact that most robberies occur through the negligenee of the owners, e—_. —— = Te TOE EEE OT a er x magni oer f 4 _— e ‘ ' vy iN M LN § As A z a ‘tas j @ Se SS — sagenasnanenseaioncntatntie evtitianapiviniaisttntin apie we ; 73 — VOL, 5 CHARLOTTETOWN, PRINGE EDWARD ISLAND, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 30, 1880.

Lewis, of Brookivn, aud an intimate friend of Edgar Allan Poe, was found dead in her bed this morning at her honse in Bedford place. The cause of her death ia supposed to be neuralgia, One of her latest efforts was a series of sonnets td Poe, defending his name from detractors. Her tragedy, ‘* Sappho,” which is in its seventh edition, has just been translated into modern Greek and performed at Athens. ‘* Stella’ was rich Maryland planter, and on. owe side she claimed descent from a noble family at Navarre and on the other from the But- lers, of Wyoming, be Oyieple, ehoaties . Speculation about President Gar- field’s. Cabinet. Our Washington correspondent writes :-— ‘* OF President Garfield’s Cabinet and line of policy much is being said whigh is news to that gentleman, I doubt not. “If, how- ever, what everbody believes must be trae, it is probable that the. next President en- tertains the same kindly feeling for the people of all sections with which President Hayes commenced his administration, and as he has vastly more acquaintance with public men, North and South, and tle knowiedge of government affairs which comes from long participation in them, asa leader, it is not unreasonable to hope that he will be more successful than Mr. Hayes in carrying out his plans. General Garfield has as imany friends and admirers in Wash- ington. as has any other public man of his party. - > - Tie Work of Fiends. AT RAILROAD WRECKING EASTERN EXTENION, ATTEMPTS ON THE {From the Antigonish Casket.) A few miles this side of the Strait of Canso, obstructions were on two or three vecasions, during the past fortnight, thrown on the railroad track, with the obvions pur- pose of wrecking the train. Fortunately, no injury resulted. The officials on board gaw the obstacles in time to avert the danger. Smart men have been deputed to watch over the road ; and it is hoped they wil} sueceed in bringing the guilty to jas- tice. After the above had been put in type jwe received. inforpoation that. ‘onthe evening of the 19th mst., a short distance east of West River, two bullets were fired into a. passing engine, fortunately only breaking the head-light glass and other- wise damaging it. But had the balls gone a very little on either side they would most probably have killed or seriously injured the engine driver or fireman or both.” (From th Windsor Mai/.) On Saturday evening, a short time be-~ rore the ¢xpress from Annapolis was due, a plank and Railway sleeper were found across the track near the embankment east of Avonport Station, and were removed just in time to save the express from being thrown over the embankment. It is not known who the scoundrel is that perpe- trated the deed, but if found he should be severely dealt with. Tus ‘‘Domrsric Monta.y” ror DeceMBER, -The Domestic Monthly for December keeps step with the season, and pays special atten- tiou to midwinter fashions. Cloaks and cold weather furnishings of every kind are laid before the reader, and even the cenventional toilettes to be worn to matinees and picture- exhibitions are dwelt upon. The newest regu- iations for wedding dressee come in, too, this month, and ap article called ‘‘Another Reign of Laces”’ will show ladies what has happened since laces were a rage before. Those inter- ested in children’s fashions will be surprised by the fancies which have recently eneroached upon girl’s shoes as Well as their wraps and dresses; while there are mothers everywhere who my gather from ‘‘Boys Suits’ just what will best clothe, not the coming man, but the small man already here. Fars form a special chapter in the ‘‘Domestic Monthly” for December; the substitution of spotted furs for the soft monotones so long in vogue, proving at least that there is no such things as an anchorage for fashion. The illustrations with whieh the pages of this magazine abeund are fairly descriptive of themselves ; the explanations accompanyi g cuts, however, will this month render it easy work fer the holiday enthusiast to gain ideas from Domestic Art, as well as from Gloves and Lingerie. Mary Ainge De Vere begins in this number a serial entitled ‘* Was She Jealous?’ It is in that author's best vein, strong, fanciful, and provocative of curiosity. Turbans, we believe. have not gone out yet, and the pretty Oriental legend. by A. Vem Lehman, of their inventlon will be found very entertaning to all readers. Mrs, Merighi’s Art Paper, A Sketch by Eben KE. Rexferd, Mrs. Henry Ward Beecher’s invaluable Household Department, several poems, and discriminating notices of new books make up the balance of a most accept- ablenumber.
