He believed this revolution was not- fat; ofl’,.and it would be the outcome of high taxation and reckless government. What was needed for this country was legislators who would handle the funds of the country as carefully as they would their own. If such men. had-2 composed the government at Ottawa, would the debt of the Dominion have been as great as it is? Would not the funds have been honestly spent, andwould there have been such revelations as have come to light in connection with the letting of government-u contracts and in the buildings of canals and bridges; while thousands of men are: going up and down the country looking for work and unable to find it ?

Mr. Laurier's followers are with him to a man. In the Conservative ranks, now headed by 'l‘upper, there are discord and disunion of the worst kind; and Scripture tells us that ” a house divided: against itself cannot stand." Butcher’s Licenses. By the council proceedings published ~ ‘ in another column it will be seen that the village butchers have applied for licenses,~or, in other words, for “ protec- tion," and a ratcpayer who says he is i “ Interested." opposes their application. Some years ago a coolness arose between us and the butchers over the same mat- ter, and one of them has hardly forgiven us to this day for being unable to sea with his eyes. There is probably no business man in this village who suffers as much as we do from outside compe- tition, but we should he laughed at if we asked for legislation in our behalf, though we admit that it would not bu as easy to protect us as to protect tho I butchers. If they want a license to enable them to raise the price of meat. we can hardly side with them; but if they can show that. it will not raise the price, but will, by preventing putty inroads upon their business, enable then: .- to sell cheaper rather than dearer, that is another phase of the question. Wo very much doubt whether they would, not be throwing away the money they paid for their licenses, as a law to which nearly everybody is opposed is cxcccd- ingly difficult to enforce, and a man who is making money by peddling meat through a community is not likely to be stopped by having to pay a few dol- lars annually for the privilege. One of thc dogmas of the Liberals is, that every. man shall have the privilege of buying in the cheapest market and selling in the dearest, and what is sound economic doctrine for the country at large is also . sound doctrine for the village of Fcuclon :.
