PORTER’S before it would rise in price as a. con- sequeu;e of the extra. duty. It the Canadian farmer really pays the duty (or [0565 the duty, as our opponents say), how did it matter to the Yankee buyers whether they should purchase before or after the increased duty came into force? It the Canadian farmer pays the dutv, how was it that the price went up '30 cents in Buffalo the moment the McKinley bill went into force, and i that the American brewers raised the price of his beer one dollar a barrel, at the same time protesting against the act as injurious to his trade? As a matter of fact the Canadian prices re. maimed steady whilst the Buffalo prices went up the moment the McKinley bill went into eli‘ect, proving that the Yankee buyers’ heads were level, a compliment which Mr. Walters and his friends are evidently not ready to pay the South Victoria farmers by appeal- ing to them on the “ barley cry.” In conclusion, it might be just as well to quote a. couple of distinguished Reform authorities on this matter for the edi- Ebe Watchman.

Mr. John Charlton in 1878 said : “It had been asserted by gentlemen on the opposite side of the house, that the American duty upon Canadian barley diminished the price to the Canadian farmer, by the exact amount of the American duty. He should not enter into a discussion of this question,‘ though it was his belief that the Ameri- can duty was actually paid, in a great ‘ measure at least, by the American con‘ sumer, and made very little difference indeed with the price received by the Canadian tanner.” Tle Hon. David Mills at Fergus, in 1877, said: “The fiscal policy of the United States has not interfered in the least possible de gree with the prices which rule in l Canada.” Editorlal Notes. OUR attention has been drawn to a copy of the “McKinley Bill” as enact-1 ed by the fifty-first Congress of the United States, from which it appears we were in error in the statement of last week that the Canadian P05! had misquoted the McKinley tariff in the matter of telegraph poles, and railway ties. We hasten to correct the mistake, in justice to our contemporary and in the interests of truth. The capy of the Agricultural section of the McKinley tariff which we have and from which we took our information, gives the old tariff at 2O°/o and the new tariff free, hence the error Into which we were lead. AMERICAN politicians and the Ameri- can press have all along pointed out that Unrestricted Reciprocity means Canada’s adoption of the United States tarifl'. This means discrimination against Great Britain to the extent ' that the McKinley tariff is now dis- criminating against British goods. The ‘ Canadian liberals have, with few ex- ceptions come to an admission of this fact. Mr. Blake in his famous letter flatly asserts it; Sir Richard Cartwright on the public platform also asser‘s it ; whilst the Toronto Globe recently in its review of Mr. Mowat’s letter to the Hon. Alexander Mackenme sarcastically remarked, “ we infer that he counten- ances discrimination against British goods, without which it cannot be obtained." It is true Mr. Laurier some- what timidly puts the admission in this form, “if Canada’s trade interests lie one way and Britain’s another, he will decide against Britain,” but it amounts to the same thing. The Huntingdon Gleaner an independent Liberal journal, thus pointedly defines the situation :â€" “ The issue presented by Mr. Laurier “ is a false one. There is no conflict “ between Canada’s interests and those “ of Great Britain, they are identical, “ and must of necessity continue to be “ so, for she is the only customer that “ can take, in anything like the same “ quantity, what we have to sell. The “ United States. under the freest pos- “ sihle trade, would only take a few “ lines of what we have to sell, so that “ what Mr Laurier asks us to do is to “ slam ?lie door in the face of our best ‘ customer for our staples in order that “ we may sell our odds and ends to the " “Americans. Such a policy is a bad l “ one in every sense.” AT the close of last session the full strength of Mr. Abbott’s government was 28 on a. straight party div1sion. In the courts the opposition may well be said to have met their Waterloo, as already 20 liberals have been unseated to 13 conservatives. There can be no doubt the government majority will be m: berially increased as a. result of thej bye-elections. 1n spea king of the stability of the Abbott administration a while ago, the Huntingdon Gleaner, :1 liberal independent organ, said : "‘ The representations that the present “ administration is liable to collapse are “ absurd. Mr. Abbott has the astute- ness of his predecessor with more “ solidity of judgment, and will retain “ office until he chooses to retire into “ private life, The fact that he closed 1 "- the late session without adding to the “ debt or undertakmg any new public “work, tells ,in his favor with candid “ minds. Since we are to have a. I “ Conservative government, we prefer “ to have a cautious one.” In striking contrast to this is the following sharp criticism by the same Liberal organ of THE WATCHMAN. Me srs. Laurier and Cartwright: “How “the home of the Liberal party havei “ been biasted by Laurier and Cert-1 “ wright is now palpalfle to every “ mcmher of it, and the right way to “ recumr lost‘ground IS not to try to “ make out that they do not mean what “ they said and whit. they continue to “ say, but to get rid of them. * * * “ Pitching asvie the rotten plank of “Unrestricted Reciprocity and stand- “ ing upon the ample platform of British “ connection and a. revenue tariff, the “ Liber .1 party would regain the “ prestige it has lost the past few years.” It is not likely that South Victoria and the other vacant Conservative consti- tuencies wrll reverse their verdict of last March in favor of Messrs. Cart- wright and Laurier and “the rotten plank of Unristricted Reciprocity.” WE have received a. communication from one Sum. Suddaby (of Somerville, we. believe), in which that gentleman complains of the letter which appeared in our last issue, from a “ Kinmount Liberal-Conservative.” As Mr. Sud- daby goes so far in his communication as to characterize our publication of certain statements about the “ Admin- istrator” and his “Conventions” as a pi ace of “iinpudence” on our part, we do not feel that his production is entitled to a. plaCe in our columns. Mr. S. is evidently an apt “ pupil of ours,” and for that very reason must not be en- couraged. “There is no one so blind as the one who won’t see,” and we fear this is what is the matter with Mr. S. The latter denies that the “ Conven- tion” was “ worked” in the interests of the “ Administiator,” whilst several of the best liberal-conservatives have as- sured us this feature was as plain as the nose on a man’s face. In fact the jot) Was too well done, and gave the whole thing away. The “ Adminis- trator’s loud and rough conduct in the election courts just suits Mr. S.'s taste, but unfortunately the quiet and re- spectable section of the conservative ‘party of Ncrth Victoria viewed the whole performance as dngraceful, and a. reflection on the good name of their part . It is the latter section that is going to see that the riding is not go- ing to be saddled for this term, and as a matter of course the next time, and the next time, and the next, with a mere “ political adventurer,” whose sole aim is to win the applause of those who mistake ineli'alflo cheek and coarse efi‘rontery for character and ability. If tl‘e issue in North Victoria is one he- tween the men and not the measures, the issue has been created by just such men as Mr. 5, who “cannot see that any of the other conservatives from whom we had to choose :ud more Interests at stake in the rid1ng”than the “ Administrator.” Loxnox, Jan. 14,â€"Cardinal Manning did not die of influenza as has been gen- erally reported. He has been in a, feeble condition for Some time from old age, to which the asceticism of his life had ccn- tributed. He was finally attacked by bronchitis, complicated with inflannnation 0f the lungs. As soon as these symptoms became developed his case was considered hopeless. His weakness was extreme, and towards the close was so great that his friends were all all aware that the end was near. Early in the evening: the physicians gave him up, and during the night death was expected at any moment. The Bishop of Salford Was at his bedside at, live o‘clock this morning. The Cardinal was rapidly sinking, out he was able to request that mass he said, and it was celebrated by the Bishop in the private oratory adjoining the sick chamber. In the moantime Canon J olmstone watched at the bedside. at, 6.20 o'clock the BishOp of Salford return- ed, and seeing a marked change in the Cardinal commenced to repeat the prayers for the dying. The Cardinal smiled on hearing the familiar Words, and moved his lips. At 7.25 he fell into a quiet sleep and remained in that condition until death came at 7.55, when without a struggle he yielded up his breath. His ending was peaceful, as If from old age rather than from disease. The body had been clothed : in its archiepiseopal robes preparatory to the lying in state in the pro-cathedral, where the Cardinals hat and othe rinsignia of his high office as a prince of the church will be added. PARIS. Jan. 16.â€"â€"Cardinal Manning was not a. controver sialist of conspicuous ability, but his skill as an organizer and leader unrivalled among the chiefs of the Roman hierarchy in England. He was also prominent in all wise and earnest efforts for the improvement of the condi- tion of the poor, whether such efforts originated with the Church of Rome or with the Salvation Army. Of late years Cardinal Manning: has left a will, brief and simple, for his property was small. The little ho had he gives nearly all to his nearest relative, a sister aged 92 years.

For many years he was secretary of the congregation of the Propaganda, and as Consultor he belonged to the Holy Roman and Universal Inquisition, to the Props- gunda for afi'airs of the Oriental Rite, and to the Council for the Revision of Provin- cial Councils. In 1875 he was sent as Archbishop of Chalcedonia. In this year he was also created Cardinal. In 1876 he was appointed Secretary of State to Pope Pius the IX., and in 1878 was appointed Perfect of the Propaganda by Pope Leo XIII. A Conductor-’5 Tussels With Rufiians on the New York Central. PomnstPsm, Jan. 17.â€"There was a desperate fight on train No. 6, on the New YorK Central and Hudson River railroad Sunday night, the whole train being in a state of panic. It left Albany at 5 p.m. Just as i: was leaving, three intoxicated men named William Reardcn, Albert Burrseen and John Vannoues, who is em- ployed by 1’. McArdle. of Albany, in breaking up old engines, boilers, etc., rushed on board, throwing their Chisels, crowbars and sledaes on the platform of the buffet. car. They were very rude and boisterous and immediately took charge of the car. Chief Detective Humphrey was on the train and said to them : “ Why don’t you behave yourselves. ” Burnseen grabbed Humphrey and endeavored to push him off the car. Humphrey said: “Look out, I’m an officer.’ At. this Re L1 (1011 who IS one of the toughest men in Albany, advanced on Humphrey and said he could lick him. Knowing Reardon was a tough, Humphrey PULLED HIS REVOLVER I to use it: as a club. Vannoues reached for one of his big Chisels, but Humphrey succeeded in gettingr Resrdon on the car, threw him down and held him on a seat, ‘ while some of the passengers and brake- men held the others back, and Reardon got quiet. Mr. Humphrey had his wife and child on the train in :1 rear cu‘, and went back to see them. While he was talking with his wife, Conductor McCarick 0f the train entered the car and said to the chief : “They are fighting with knives in the buffet car.” This was at Hudson. Chief Humphrev went to the buffet car and found two of the roughs on the floor, Reardon on top of Burnseen, both lunging at each other with knives. The passengers shouted at Humphrey, saying, “ They 1 want to kill you, look out.” When 1 Reardon smv Humphrey he started for him ! with uplifted knife exclaiming, “I will kill yuu, you I" Humphrey clutched with hlm and threw him on his back and dragged him through a. buffet car into the baggage car, and with the assistance of Chief Detective James Fuller, of Fuller’s Detective Agency, who was on the train. and others. managed to tie the desperado with a bell cord. By this time the whole train was in an uproar. Women turned pale with excite- ment, and men rushed forward from every car. Chief Humphrey had just seated himself alongside of his wife for the second ‘ time, when the conductor and several passengers again came into the car in a hurry, excl-inning : “ Real-don has a knife and is Coming to kill you I” having cut himself loose and driven eight or ten men out of the baggage car. Chief Hum- phrey hurried to the front of the coach and saw lieardun cmning running tlirough the Car next forward. with mat and vest 011', with blood streaming from his face and an uplifted large knife in his hand. The conductor shut the car door and held it, Mr. Humphrey pulled out his revolver. opened the car door and seized Reardon and took his knife away from him. Detec- tive Fuller and the conductor assisting Humphrey dragged his man through the buffet car again and took him into the bag- gage car, and retied him With the bell cord and stayed with him until the train reached Poughkeepsie, when Chief Hum- phrey had all three of them locked up.
