Mr. Phipps, in conclusion says : " It is usual to say there are a million Canadians in the States. This is far under the mark. If it had not been for the wretched mis~ management of Canadian politicians, whom it is the fashion to call statesmen, there are twenty millions of people in the States who would have been in Can- ada today.” It used to be said of farming that if those who followed it could not save money they were at least sure ofa good living; but that is no longer trueâ€"in Canada, at any rate. The Feuclou Falls Gazette. Friday. May lst, 1891. The Exodus Prom Ontario. Yours Respectfully, JOSEPH HEARD. ' have received a choice lot of SUITINGS ' WAND_ It is not necessary to-quOte figures and . ~ statistics to proveâ€"as no one in a posi- l S E I tion to judge will denyâ€"that the farm- ' era of the Dominion, as a body, are get- ting worse and worse ofi every year, and W Mr. Phipps is not the only one by many thousands who knows the cause. Vast numbers of the farmers know it too; but unfortunately such a large percent- age either cannot, or are so blinded by political prejudice that they will not, see how easily they can relieve them- selves from the burdens under which they groan. But the opportunity of doing so only comes at somewhat lengthy intervals; and as they missed the chance they had on March 5th, they may pos- sibly have to wait five years (though we hope not) before they will have another chance of very materially im- proving their position by the simple pro- cess of marking a cross in the right place on a slip of paper. Paying un- nuturally high prices for almost every- thing they havc to buy, and forced to take unnaturally low prices for almost everything they have to sell, it is no wonder that they have got Into a pretty bad fix, from which it. is impossible to release them without they themselves Sz.lzve,,-.I‘-U(z7;c, I I help.

But “ there's a good time coming " for the working classes, who are year by year growing more urgent in their demands for a larger and fairer share of the products of their labor, and who, sooner or later will surely get it. A Lindsay Grievance. Under the above heading the Empire of April 25th says :â€" “ Major Sam Hughes. of Lindsay, William McArthur, of Fenclon Falls. and J. H. Carnegie, of Coboconk, had an interview with Sir John Macdonald today in reference to an obstruction caused by the Grand Trunk railway bridge at Fenclon .Il‘alls. The deputa- tion asked that the railway company be compelled to convert. the bridge into a swing bridge to enable timber and cord wood to be floated down to Lindsay, the natural market of the lumbcrmcu of that district. It was represented that the inability to get the cordwood down to Lindsay owing to the obstruc- tion caused by the bridge involved a loss 0n the wood of 50 cents per cord. The Premier stated that the company had already been ordered to place a swing bridge at the point, and the dc- partment would call attention to the neglect." W ‘Personals. Mrs. R. A.’ Dickson, of Toronto, has been visiting at the Manse since Thurs- day of last week. Mr. Wm. Heeley has been confined to the house a few days with In grippe, but is now able to be out again. Mr. Samuel Swanton is in town. He tells us that he intends to again become a resident of the Falls, and that his family will be here this week. Mr. John A. Ellis left on Monday for an extended tour through Manitoba and the territories, and he will probably visit the Pacific coast. He expected to be away from home between two and three months. Mr. R. M. McKenzie returned on Tuesday from Mount Forest, where he has been spending a few days amongst his relatives, and is now behind the counter in Burgoyne & Co.’s new dry goods store. m SELLING Oraâ€"Mr. W. B. Jordan is about to retire from business, and will sell his stock of boots 6; shoes, gro- ceries &c., at or under cost for cash until the whole is disposed of. Posters to that effect will appear in a day or two. USEFUL AND ORNAMENTALr-Mr. Blott has lately received a handsome showcase with a niclzle plated frame. It is not only an ornament to thc’storc, but has a mirror in the back, which en- ables Mr. Blott’s fair customers to take a peep at themselves while looking at the candies_&c. that the case contains. CHRISTIAN Esnn.\von.â€"The regu- lar meeting of the Christian Endeavor Society will be held in the basement of the Methodist church on Tuesday even- ing next at 8 o’clock. Topic: “ God's warnings. For whom ? Why given ? " To be introduced by Rev. Mr. Parker. Regular monthly call. All are cordially invited. TANB.\RK.-MI‘. Samuel Swantou is prepared to pay the highest price for any quantity of tnnbark delivered at any of the stations on the Victoria branch of the G. ’I‘. R. For particulars apply to Mr. Wm. IIcaslip, Fcnelon ,Falls, Mr. ‘John Kingsborough, Kin mount, or to Mr. Swanton, at No. 52 Victor Avenue, Toronto. A Goon Lauretteâ€"Miss Lillian M. Phelphs’s temperance lecture in Dick son’s hall on the evening of Thursday, the 25th ult., gave great satisfaction to the large audience who assembled to hear it. The chair was occupied by Rev. C. Parker, and Mrs. Wilson prc~ sided at the organ. The singing was by Mrs. Wilson, Miss Edvmrds and Miss Alice McDiarmid. Hosannaâ€"These little animals must still be quite plentiful in this neighborhood, judging by the number ofakigs brougth into the village by the Mechanics‘ Institute, for the election or officers and the transaction of other im- portant business. will be held in ~the reading room at. 8 o'clock on the evening of Monday next, the 4th iust., and a Mr- DWI" i full attendance of members is r . . c uc‘ted. saysâ€"and who dare contradict htm ?â€" l q 3 NEW Goonsâ€"Part of the large stock. of goods recently ordered by Burgoyne &. Co. has arrived and is now ding opened out in the store (lately occupied by Mr. McDmgall) next their old one. The " Red Store " will henceforth con- tain nothing but groceries and boots and shoes, and the new premises will bx filled with dry goods, ready-made cloth- ing, hats and cups and gentleman's fur- nishing. CLEAN UP.â€"Mr. Sanitary Inspector Kelly is going around the village for the purpose of ascertaining the condi~ tiou of back yards, woodshcds, cellars &c., which will have to be cleaned up- aud deodorized immediately, if in a con» diticn likely to endanger the public health. The hot weather will soon be here, and malarial diseases may be ex- pected unless every‘prcoautiou against. them be taken. BUSINESS Crusoeâ€"Oi Monday last. Mr. R.,J. Frost left the Falls for Van- cuuvcr, having previously disposed of his business as watchmuker to Mr. Alex. Moore, who succeeds him in the adver- tising columns of the Gazette as well u“- in McArthur's block. As Mr. Moore- does not wish to keep silverwm'o, and there is considerable in his stock, he will dispose of it at greatly reduced prices, and all who need unythiulr in that line should give him a call. a Wan Guessâ€"Quito a number of" wild geese have lately passel over the village, generally a few at n time; but- ou Sunday evening a flock containing' from fifty to a hundred came from the direction of Green 8:. Ellis’s mill and disappeared over the church hill. They were so low down when they crossed the river that they had to rise to avoid a: couple of trees near Mr. A. Torrancc's- back door, and a man with a gun, or even a boyzwith a catapult, might easily have killed one of them. Sruur Masonicâ€"Tho stump ma- chine erected by Mr. RObS'Jl] a few feet from his implcmeot shed at the corner of Colbornc and Francis street is attract iug a good deal of notice and favorable comment, as it is very strong and ap pears to have immense lifting power. It is of the tripod order of architecture, and Mr. Robson has made two impor- ' taut improvements; one being a contri- vance for locking it without climbing to the top of the machine, and the other. is a swivel which prevents the chaim around the stump from twisting, which is the chief cause of breakagcs. TEMPORARY INSANI’I r.â€"â€"About three weeks ago Mr. L. B. Quigg, of this vil- lage, begun to show signs of mental aberration, and, although at times he appeared quite rational, gradually grew so much worse that on Tuesday last he- had to be taken to Lindsay for safe- keeping, as it was feared that he might do injury to himself or members of his- family. It necessary he will be remov- ed to an asylum ; but Dr. Graham, who has been attending him, has hopes of his speedy recovery. Ills talk during his insane fits has been almost entirely of temperance, religion and politics; and which has been chiefly instrumental in disturbing his mental faculties it is im- possible to say. it He has a wife and sev- oral small children, for whom much sympathy is felt. mm The ice is all out of Port Arthur harbor. A discovery of nickel ore is reportcl from South Dakota. Grip is spreading in South Russia. One hundred and fifty deaths are re- ported. An imperial decree forbidding racing on Sunday has been promulgated in Germany. Two Mormon elders have hren driven out of Lincoln county, W. Va, by in dignant citizens. The first seasion of the seventh Pat‘â€" linmcnt of Canada was opened on Well- ncsday, April 23th. Mr. Peter White, of Narth Renl'rew, was elected Speaker without a vote. Field Marshal Count Von Moltke, the most prominent man in G:rmany next to the Emperor and Bismarck, died of heart failure last Friday night at his ofiicial residence on the Koningsplntz. He was over 90 yours old. At L’Origoal, on Wednesday, Nan cissc L1 as was sentenced to be hanged on the 4th of J one for the mar. der of the McGonigte girls at Cumber- land on the 7th of October last. The evidence, though purely circumstantial, was such as to leave not the slightest doubt of Larcegue's guilt. ' , N..~........ .‘...
