EVERY TUESDAY nmauaAanms. m SETTLERS’ TRAINS MANITOBA Capital Paid up, The scorching inéijtment of our Ottawa rulers and of Mercier by Rev. Dr. Doug- lasaofMontredwillbereadand . .91 -__1 We have many complaints from business and professional men as to the hard times that prevail. It was expected that with the abundant crops of last fall there would be an abundance of money and a great improvement in business. But though there is a great deal of grain and other produce in the country there is a general scarcity of money, and hardtimes prevail. The scarcity of money and the hard times are not confined to this town or county. The same state of things exists In Peterboro and other eastern counties, and to the west as well. The cause of the difliculty is generally alleged to be the 'ce of the farmers in holding backs great deal of their grain. It is true a great deal of grain has been already sold, but the crop last year was an exceptionally large and fine one, and the persistent holding of it without regard to the other censequences involved is by many good authorities given as the principal cause of the existing widely-spread evil. A mer- chant put the case this way the other day: it Thereis no law to compel farmers tosell u theirgrain at any particular time, but 3: those farmers who have accounts to pay: nwhether it is $1.00 for his local paper, uorsbillofSlOor$20tothe blacksmith, n or larger sums to the merchant, should :1 not speculate or ‘hold for a rise,’ and u leave their accounts unpaid.

We print the deliverance of the venerable preacher in other columns anddirect to it the special attention of the reading public. The contrast insti- tuted by Dr. Douglass between Sir A. T. Galt and Mr. Foster, between Papineau and Chapleau, between George Brown and Haggai-t, is very effective and significant and must produce a deep impression in the public mind. Dr. Douglass condemns Marcie:- with the greatest severity; but he maintainina way that cannot be gain- sayed that the same rule of. investigation by which Mercier was tried should be applied to the cases of ministers at Ottawa against whom the most serious charges have been made. The argument of Dr. Douglass on this point isinvincible; and there is no doubt but that if any commissions are needed this session to Investigate charges they will be properly equipped for the work.

The action was brought by George Paget of Huntsville to recover $30,000 upon the sale of timber berths 75 and 830n the north shore of lake Huron. fi‘fiéfinter, 1889, the defendants gave the plaintifi‘ an option of the limits at $90,000, good until lst of January. and at the same time agreed to pay the plaintiif a commission of $3.000 if he sold at $90,000. The time was subsequently extended until February and during this time the plaintifl’ was, unknown to the defendants, asking $120 000 for the limits. but failed to get a purchaser. In February a new option to urchase was given the plaintiff at $100000, good until lst May. without any agreement for a commission.
