(Concluded from first page.) Within the past ten years. a good many varieties of winter wheat have been distributed to farmers throughout Ontario who applied for them for test- ing upon their own farms. Great care has been taken in the selection of the varities for distribution, and some kinds, such as the Jones’ Winter Fife. Bulga- rian or Democrat, Pride of Gencsce, Diamond Grit, etc., have been sent out owing to their quality rather than their yield of grain Farmers have found. however, that all varieties would sell for about the same price per bushel, and therefore have grown those kinds from which they could secure the great- est profit, hence the great popularity of the Dawson’s Golden Chafl‘ with the farmers of Ontario. The varieties to be distributed this year have again been carefully selected, and two sets will be sent free by mail to farmers applying for them who will carefully test the three kinds in each set which they choose, and will report the results after harvest next year. The seed will be sent out in the order in which the applications are re- ecive'd as long as the supply lasts : SET 1. Dawson’s Golden Chafi'. Early Genesec Giant. Stewart's Champion Red. SET 2. Dawson's Golden Ohafl'. Turkey lit-d. Diamond Grit. Each person wishing ono of these sets should apply as early as possible, men- tioning which not he desires; and the grain, with instructions for testing, and the blank form on which to report, will be furnished free of cost to his address, until the supply of grain fordisrribution is exhausted. Much additional i.:fhrmation regard- »ing the value of the Turkey Red winter wheat: for Ontario will undoubtedly be secured this year. Not only will it be testedin the cooperative experiments throughout the Province, but as several millers are importing seed from Kansas, an opportunity will be afi'ordcd the farm- ers of Western Ontario to grow it in large quantities, and the millcrs can then grind the variety by itself and thus be better enabled to determine its value for both the home and the foreign trade. The results will be watched with interest by both the millcrs and the farmers. C. A. Zavrrz Ontario Agric'l College, Guelph, August 10th, 1900. Then-licnelch Falls Gazette. FridaT ,â€" August 34th, 1900. Socialism or Revolutionâ€"Which ? James R Keen, the welLknown Wall street broker and financier, said re- cently' . - “The people of this country must arouse themselves. The conningr election is of more importance, from the stand- pointof pure Americ:mi-sm,_ than any Lincoln. Money is in the saddle; it is riding down the institutions of this .cou-ntry with a confident insolcncc that tells of its firm belief in its own rite-vin- cibillty. It is running the got/eminent to-day in its very branch and arm. If money's power in molding public affairs 'nocs forward four years more as it has for the tour years-past, the name of American liberty will only be worth a recollection as a matter of history. Mo- ney is pressing the people backward What will be the end? If it goes on there are. as matters trend, but two solutions. One is Socialism and the‘othcr is revolution. Tire American ;peopl'c must defend themselves from money. just as they once guarded their forest frontiers from the savages. Unless they come solidly shoulder to shoulder for their rights, and come at once, B'u-n- ker Bill will have been a. blunder, Yorktown a mistake." ‘ Nothing is more certain than that either socialism or revolution will be the outcome of the present competitive system, which is now more rapidly than ever concentrating: wealth (which rmans the products of iabor)in the hands of a few, to whom the masses are practically little better than slaves; and it is prob- able that the fi'rst attempt to establish a. more just and satisfactory order of things will be madeâ€"by force if neces- saryâ€"in the United States, where squa- lOI‘, misery and starvation are increasing at an alarminrz rate. In less than the. twonty-four hours of July 18th the bodies of thirty-five children, who. had died of heat and lack of food and air, were taken to the public morgue from the tenement hells of New Yerk, and in ‘ the same city, on Saturday last, John Young, an iron-worker or t of employ- ment, was locked up by the police after a desperate attempt to drowu his two- ycar-old baby girl and to cut his own throat. while half crazed with his strug- gln against poverty. The Lancaster, Pa., Labor Leader says :_ condemned. that. has transpired since the election of‘- . . ‘“ Torts and Inaurlcr. - Wilfrid Laurier. ' words. “ More than 75,000 men are said to be today walking the streets of New York seeking: employment. Attracted by l‘cpm'ls of the work to be done on the rapid transit tunnel, laborers from the four quarters of the. globe are hastening there in shoals. Every ship from Eu- rope, every train from the west, east and south brings its freight of would- be workmen. Men fight each other for jobs, and hundreds live'on soup dished out by charitable organizations and in- dividuals. - i Commenting upon this state of affairs, R. A. Daquc, a writer, in Alemeda, Calafornia, says : ‘_,‘ How do the wage workers expect to keep their wages up to their present levvl, unless the socialistio plan of co- operation is adoptcd ? Not only are foreign wage workers flocking to Amer- ica, but our capitalists are planning to (land this country with cheap goods from Japan and the Philippines. It is well known that within a few years Japan has been buying our raw cotton, taking it over to that country, manu- facturing itinto various fabrics, which they ship to the United States, where they sell the goods fora much less price than our manufacturers can make the goods. Japan is able to do this becapsc male operators of that Country receive but ten cents a day, fcmrilc four cents, and children 111,» cents, and they work seven days in the week. For the same service the American workman would labor but six days in the week, and re- ceive about ten or twelve times higher wages. Now it is pretty well known that our large capitalists are already taking steps to make large investments in manufacturing plants in Japan, and also in the Philippines when peace 15 restored. that they may take advantage of the cheap lab ‘1‘ there. i that the principal market for ther'r‘good-s will be in this country. Every intelli- gent person knows the effect that this will have. not only on the operatives in American factories. but on the wages of all working- mcn. The competition of the thousands of European laborers who are coming to our shores, and the cheap goods that will come in from the Orient, must inevitably force the wages of the American workingman down to a Euro- pean and Asiatic basis. Protective tariffs and labor unions cannot long pre- vent this result. Under our present economic system the wage worker and the poorer classes are doomed to slavery. Socialism is the only thing that will save them. Socialism is only another name for cooperationâ€"a product-shar- ing association. which would insure every son and. d-aughtenof toil the full benefit of the labor they perform.” The Double Blow At Laurier; , The Guelph Herald says: ‘H‘ The "Not-oneaman-not-one-cent" policy of 'l'arte and Inauri‘er- has already been It only remains to conâ€" ) demnvils authors.‘ _ Having pictured Hon. J. I. Tartc as a terrible. man, he is dragged constantly to the front in this way. The Conscr- Vativc newspapers love to- speak of ” Even in its earâ€" lier stages the “ not-a-mau-not-a cent ” falsehood was not spoken against Sir Mr. Tarts alone Wits accused of uttering the sentiment. In Parliament he challenzed his opponents to show that he had ever used such They were unable to show. it, for he had not used such words or taken such grounds. But it is interesting to place the above paragraph From‘thc B'er'aldialong- side some of the paragraphs from “ Con- servative pamphlet No. 6,” issued to assist in defeating Sir Wilfrid Laurier in Quebec. Instead of accusing him of holding “not-ayman-not-a‘cenr.“ prin- ciples, Sir lV’ilfrid is accused of having arranged on Imperial policy when he was in London at the Jubilee, where, the Conservativepamphlct goes on to say. “ was sealed the compact which to day -is crimson with Canadian blood "Shed at Paardeberg‘, Belmont, Mafckinz, Father’s farm audio all the other sad engagements.” There are enough questions upon which the two political parties. may honestly and sincerely disagree. On this war question there is either room for disagreement between the two par- ties or there is not. but no honest man can approve of the course of the Con- servative party insecking to defeat the Government by attacking itâ€"systcma- tically, thoroughly. by means of cam- paign literature paid for out ofa com,- mon fund and' issued by the self-same personsâ€"in Ontario on the-ground that he was in favor of helping Great Britain in the war. This is indefensible in the sight of any honest man who comes in posses- sion of the evidence convicting the de- generate Conscrvativc leaders of the present day of this offence against com- mon honesty and old‘fashioned. truth. Politicians are sometimes accused of misrepresenting their opponents when They expect ‘ i ri‘natcd-tthcm: we would try to. do the: were misinformed and were speaking the truth; In there is no room for a misunderstanding. The Premier is deliberately accused in pamphlets published in Quebec in Sir Charles Tupper’s behalf of being a hot Imperialist on whose hands is the blood of the Canadians who have died in bat- tlc; while in similar pamphlets issued! in Sir Charles Tupper’s behalf for cir- culation in Ontario, the Premier is ac- cused of being under anti-British in- fluence and oppoScd to having. Canada play a loyal part towards the Mother Country. It will lac-interesting to see how (itâ€" tingly rebuked will be the party that appeals so confidently to the ignorant and is so indifferent tothe honest among the electors.â€" Toronto Star. Hardilvordsim The Watchman- Warder ’s “ man.” in last Week’s issue of that Journal, says:-- “In reply to our remark that COL Hughes is on his way home. the Fen- elon Falls Gazette is capable of nothing more generous 1 than repeating a yarn, that the colonel has sent home $15,000, and addier to it a mean insinuation about how he got the money. That is the sort of journalism thatdisgraces the. calling. The yarn. itself is a «delicious fabrication that those who were glad to- circulate it, are now just as glad to rem pudiatc; and the Gazette man's addi- tion is the product of a disposition pit- iably at variance with the. worthy elc-. ments in human nature.” ' ~ The “yarn ” may or may not have- been a malicious fabrication, but, if it were. we didn ’t fabricate it. It came- to the Falls from Lindsay, and, after- hcaring it two or three times, we pub- lished it as an item of interest concern- ing a distinguished personage, which. 'our Sam certainly is. Nor was what the W.â€" W. calls a “ mean insinuation “‘ ours, either; for we quoted the exact. words of one of the gallant Colonel's.- strongest supporters. Those who. heard» thatcSam. had got a wad of money, ex- pressed the opinion that he had found a buried treasure on the premises of' some wealthy B‘oer;_and it was thought. not improbable that, as he couldn’t very: well resign in the presence of the enemy,. he had‘ ingeniously managed; to get himv. self bounced.. We knowâ€"at least, we. have rcadâ€"â€"that it is against the rules. of war for either a private soldier or an. officer to appropiatewthe property of an. enemy ;. but therule is extremely dif- ficult to enforce, and itsviolation must be openly winked at,,for it- was. several , times stated. in print that “ Tommies ’ " in tllc'Transvaal were in. possession of' money 'hnd valuables taken. from the Boers. Besides, if “ nice customs eurt’- sy to great Kings ”‘â€"-as Henry V‘. said' when he. wanted to kiss Katharine of" Franceâ€"why shouldn’t they curt’sy, occasionally, to great Colonels? flow-- ever, we are glad to hear that the yarn was a fabrication and that Sam hasn'tâ€" got the money. which he could hardly- have obtained; without having been. guilty of the veuial offence of a breach of the rules of war; for a field of battle- is no place to turn an honest penny. We- object to Sun Hughes, both as M. P: ,for North Victoria and- as champion.» braggart of'thc Dominion ;vbut we don’t: wish to do him an injustice, and it is: therefore painful to be led ‘into errors. ,whichthc Watshmomctc. being.r his re-- cognized organ, is of course bound to. correct. “ Yarns ” are what we are the~ Victims of; and if we knew who orig-- romanccrs full justice. Everything said:- about Sam that is at all discreditablc- to him turns outâ€"~0r is declared by his organs-lobe a“‘ynrn,” even.thc. state. ment that he was ordered to resign for‘ being: impudent to Lord Roberts, for: his Lindsay defender and apologist says. that he“ captured" the last of the Cape- rebels and- is coming home honorably relieved of his command.” It is really; distressing,r to be deceived. as we have been by unreliable war correspondents, Iandrto-have hard‘words heaped upon us: by Sam’s organ for what'is not our fault.
