You intention to be or 'no' following letter has been by Cornelius Bermingham, editor of the Standard : Kingston, Oct. 12.--In your editor- {ial of Oct. 6th, writtén in reply to ithe letter of the Canadian Locomo tive company, which appeared in your { { columns the previous day, you re- eatedly mentioned my name as | though of equal importance with Mr, Harty's in connection with the Loco- motive Works. : Though I naturally disliked having y personality injected into a cam- paign where it had no more to do with the issues than has the merits demerits of the character of the proprietor of the Standard, yet I re- £ | frained from protesting at that time, 2 | believing all your readers would | readily perceive it was but a trick designed to deprive Mr. Harty 'of the | credit rightfully belonging to him, by, appare ntly, transferring some of it to my unworthy shoulders, ad 1 sed, to | | your answer tion ? You must be 'yes aware that for several months our shops are not only the {only ones in Canada, but in the Unit- ed States, and probably in the world, that have been running to full ca- pacity, and that have not been com-. pelled to discharge the greater part of the men. Call this good luck, good management, or what you will, the fact remains that the orders for all the engines we have built in the last year, and all we now have on oar books, with the exception of seven, were secured by Mr. Harty personally. Yio benefits ? The company ? Grant- ed; but so also do the men it em- ploys, and in the distribution of their wages, amounting at present to over $1,000 per day, so" also every merchant, whether wholesaler or re- tailer, every house owner, church and charity in the city. Who entitled to the credit for this ? You say you want to be fair; then answer. 1 can guess how you will dodge this question by answer-| ing, "The men in the shops, the at the forge, the men at_the anvil, men at the wheels." Good; so they | are entitled to credit--abundant credit --for they turn out as good work as | is done in any shop in America to- 1 day, and the excellence of their work | | helps materially in securing orders; but the same men, or many of them, i were in the shops during the dark k days, before Mr. Harty took hold, [© and although their work then, r now, was unsurpassed by that done in |¥ any other shop, yet the conservative government sent their to the United States, and let same 1 men, and these same idle | and unemployed. On October 6th ally, that the reason the government did not patronize shops was "that the works here actually unable as should have been done, or as other concerns were doing."' This is an un- warranted, a gratuitous slur cast upor the men nowt in the shops and who were here then, which they are not | likely to soon forget. | In your article of Saturday you de- vote a column or more to combatting the proposition "that none but a cap- italist need apply for a high place, and that a city owes no debt of gra titude to the faithful workers in all great institution which is at once a source of profit and pride to that |c city." |€ Who affirmed this principle ? | Cer- |r tainly not Mr. Harty. Then why by implication impute it to him ? Is this |t your boasted fairness Your other point, viz. : Shall po- litical office become a "vested right," is too absurd to merit reply.

This true, the time Mr. Harty old bankrupt concern from the and the first the liberal government, hie was absolutely alone. 1 did not even of it until some days later.

A young married couple were given quite a scare the other night, at their boarding house, the particulars of which have just managed to leak out, as is almost always the case. In the middle of the night the young wife was awakened by a noise in the house, as if some one was moving around. She felt sure that she was not mistaken, and so decided to awaken her husband, Hubby was in a good sound sleep and it required a good deal of shak- ing to get him awake. When he at last tumbled to the fact that he was not dreaming he too listened for the footsteps of the supposed burglar.
