The Marquis of Lorné and [Princess Louise received #0 many tinselled de- corations in the way of addresses that some of them gol astray, and great was the grievance when, ' some years later, one of them was found among the junk in a second hand store. If it had been quietly burned there would not have been a word, and to the fire most of these ad- dresses must eventually go.

It is Uncle Sam the British League regards with so much suspicion and whose overtures with regard to com- merce, and : 10 the extent of a free exchange of national products it would treat with disdain. A while ago reference was made to the close of an hundred years of peace on the American continent, and the event was considered of so much the United States and Canada con- cerned themselves as to how they could most fittingly mark it. Vari- ous things were suggested, and one of them was a monnment, at some suitable point along the boundgry line, where the hundreds of thousands in the future might see it and ponder upon its meaning, : A nice commentary upon all this is the eagerness of some politicians "to ose as intense Britishers, and flaunt in the face of those who advo- cate a peaceful trade agreement charges of dishonesty and deception, and to use language deseriptive of in- ternational negotiations of the most offensive kind. THE CONTEST IN KINGSTON. | The liberals of the city Gre not manifesting. any undue excitement be- cause of the election. Victories are not test there appears to, be no doubt. It. has been decreed that there must be a Fight--mark the word, F-I-G-H-T and the men who have championed the liberal cause in the past, are quite willing and able to champion it again. They are not of the quality to which may be applied the aphor- ism, "He who fights and runs away will live to*fight another day." There will be a convention present- ly, and it will be in order, as a first duty, to endorse the action of the government and of all its acts lead- ing up to the dissolution of parlia- ment. The appeal to the people will be on reciprocity. That will be the main issue. Hon. Bob Rogers admits there may be side issues, but they will be, as the term implies, minor af- fairs, and will not have much, if any influence, on the decision of the people. For forty years government wfter gov- Theres {ernment has been anxious for recipro- cal trade relations betweén Canada and the United States, and it would be remarkable if these trade relajions were refused when the offer of them came from the United States. The in- dications are that the proposal will and that, ignoring all the side issues, the result will be a clean sweep for re ciproeity. The Whig does not forestall the lib- eral convention and make any an- nouncement as to the candidate it will probably elect. It will be for that convention, as a second - act, however, and after approving of the Laurier government and its policy, to put on record its appreciation of the service which Hon. Mr. Harty has rendered. He has made many sacri- fices in behall of the party, and he has earned Sts regard and gratitude. The Whigs editors can remember his splendid work aes far back as 1874, long before he had any parliamentary aspirations, when he ranked as one of the young liberals. To his zeal and devotion were due repeated successes has served it in every capacity and in every emergency, who has always been alert and active; who has been the leader ih so many keen political bat- thes, will bw shown the esteem in which he is held by every liberal in the city.

The West Wants Large Markets, and Pays Little Heed to the Tory Arguments, St. John, N.B., Aug. 8.--That reci- importance that the leading mem of procity will receive the hearty support of the many in the C jan west was thé opinion expreseed by Senat G. G. King, Chipman, N.B.; who w in the city on his way home from a two-month' visit to the principal , western towns. Senator King has had plenty of time to study conditions in the west and to learn the views of the farmers, and has come home firm- ly convinced that the reciprocity agreement between Canada and the United States will meet "with the hearty ' approval of the western peo- le. "I have travelled miles and miles through immense fields of wheat," he said to a Telegraph reporter, yester fay, "and I think the crop this year is going to excel that of any previous year, it being proclaimed in many places. that the entire crop will amount to two hundred million bush- lels. The owners of most of these farms aré well posted men, and they know that Great Pritain's require ments do not Exceed in Any one r 160,000,000 bushels of wheat. They also know that Canada has never in the fiast been able to find a market in Great Britain for, say, one-third of the prospective crop of the present year, and they are asking themselves 'Where is the balance over and above Canada's requirements to find a mar- ket if we do not have reciprocity 7 One of --the things that the farmers want to-day is a larger market, and reciprocity will give them the freedom of entry into the markets of the greatest consuming nation in the world. The conservatives are putting forth the plea that Fielding and, P terson should have stayed in Ottawa and that in a year or so Canada would "ka¥% probably obtained from the United States nearly all the con- cessions contained in a reciprocity bill without yielding a single concession in return. But if Canada had waited a year or two what would have hap- pened ? The markets of the 90,000,000 then would "be open to world and not to Canada alone. Can- ada under the proposed reciprotity agreement will have a preference in the United States that no other na- tion on earth can claim, and cannot help but profit thereby. The Tarmers all know this plo be true and appar ently pay but"little heed to the tory arguments." : Lrbma---- Ls -- A COMMON SENSE TALK ON THE TRADE AGREEMENT. .

We buy heavily from them, it is true, and na turally pay some of the duty which protects them, In some cases, if I am not wrongly informed, vou manufac turers are allowed to bring in ma- chinery that you use for manufactur ing purposes at low duties or entirely free of duty, We might put in the same claim for our implements. But how little have you heard of free imple ments since the reciprocity pact was brought down at Ottawa? The Can- adian implement manufacturer kept abregst of the times, in 'cases ahead of them. We have paid him good prices, but we have got good honest-miade implement." "I theught you complained that farm implements made in Canada were sold cheaper abroad ihan here," suggested Mr. Brown, I° "Yes, we did, but the manufacturer counted on us with much the same argument | gave you a few minutes ago about the home market. He show- ed us that the home market was not in all cases the cheapest market to reach, and from this you may conclude that there is. nothing in that mystip term, 'the home market,' that over distance with either the manu facturer or the farmer. And of course you must not overlook the fact that {we get a very substantial reduction in farm implements under the = proposed tarifi arrangements. , "Gentlemen, I must #peaking at such length.

HUTTON, 18 Market St KINGSTON OSWEGO FULL OF MOSQUITOES. Their is Appearance in Swarms Quite a Mystery, Oswego Palladium Mosquitoes, large and small, fat and ilean, but all with the regulation num- ber of stingers, have, within the last {few days, settled on Oswego in thou- sands and have usurped the place of the common housefly as a sources of annoyance, Bugologists of local fame are at a loss to decount for the swarms of mosquitoes which infest every house and can only shake their hess and say that moisture and pools of stag- nant water cause them to breed by millions. This history is knocked in the head when it is considered that this summer there has been little or no rain, that is continued rain, but {the members of the Yacht Club point {to their fsont garden as a proper {place for the breeding of the tiny pest. | Col. E. A. Cooke, of the department of health, has a theory for takin care of the bites which listens od When he was down south in the six- ties fighting mosquitoes, rebels, sand fleas, ete., he claims that the entire army from the generals down to the lowly strikers got as full of corn {whiskey as the supply permitted, and the consequence was that the only suffegers from mosquitoes were the su- perannuated ministers in the "com- {mand who didn't believe in the cure, There are in this city a few people iwho would welcome such a preventa- | tive, but to the others the colonel can't offer any service. -- Remember the Sabbath Day.
