"Shame upon England for this war ; shame upon Canada for hav- ing taken any part in it."'--Mr. Monet, Laurier's anti-British agita- tator in Quebec, Do not forget that the ballot is secret, The Ottawa Minister can- not trace your vote. They cannot punish people who cast their ballots as concience directs. We have before us a copy of a Bill introduced by Mr. German at the late session of the Legislative Assembly of this Province. The 3ill is entitled "A Bill to regulate the sale of Patent or Proprietary Medicine or Cures." We quote the Preamble which should in any tx, and to license the advertisement or sale of Patent or Proprictary medicines, and for thepurpose to apyoiny an in: provide for the respect of such licenses." The idea of clothing the Ontario Government with power to license the advertising of any commodity is cheeky to say the least. That government during the past twenty years has existed owing to its man- ipulation of liquor licenses and now it gets one of its most object sup porters to introduce a further licensing scheme by which it is proposed to control an important element of the electorial franchise by appointing a Government officer to inspect the affairs of manufac turers of Patent or Proprietary Medicines and to regulate and license that which the government deem proper advertisements for the) sale of such commodities, A gov ernment that fattens on a numbeg- ed Ballot and is alleged to run an election Machine should by all means be empowered to dictate, cri ticise correct or veto the announce- ments of the sale of any commodity, the property of citizens of our country, The object of the bill would seem to be to grind funds out of an enterprising an honorable por- tion of themanufacturing community in order to feed "the machine." The proposed scheme is as vicious and as contemptible asit could be imagined, and the possibility of its ever becoming law is remote, PersonaL.--Mrs, (Dr) F. W, Penhall of Morton, Minnesota, to gether with her three bright, intelli- gent little daughters are visiting at Mr. R. Penhall's here. The Doctor was prevented from accompanying his family owing to pressof business; he is the youngest son of our es teemed townsman, Mr. R. Penhall, 'and has many warm friends in this locality he being a graduate of our High School where his brilliant career as a pupil won for him the ecouniums of his fellow pupils as well as teachers of the school. He made an extraordinary rapid transit to the goal of his ambition: it being just four years and six months from the time he passed his entrance to the High School till he received his Diploma to practice medicine. All will be pleased to learn that the Doctor has prospered in the land of his adoption, under the ample folds of the Star Spangled Banner, He has an extensive and lucrative practice in the town of Morton: and its surroundings is one of its most wealthy citizens he is also extensiv- ely engaged in farming which occu pation he has turned to good ac- count. The Morton Enterprise, of a late issue, in giving a re- mime of leading business men of the city, referring to the Doctor, says :-- * He graduated in medicine in 1880 at Trinity, Med- ical College at Toronto, at which time he was maden member of the College of Physicians wud Surgeons of Ontario. The doctor afterwards came to the United States and graduated at the Bellevieu Medical College of New York City. He came to Morton eight years ago, and is one of the leading physicians of the county. The doctor is coal surgeon for the Minneapolis & Kt. Louis Ky., and is a member of the International Association of Railway Surgeons. He has & large iwary and is a con- stant reader of all medical journals. The doctor iss member of the City Council and President of the Board of Health. Socially he ia very agrecable and profession: ally he is always at the top of the ladder, An ExcerLrLENT FARM FOR SALE, -- It will be seen by reference to our advertising columns, that that fine farm in the sth con. of Mariposa known as the Foy farm is offered for sale by private tender.

A Navy whith could defy competition from any combination meant peace ; a Naw of doubtful strength meant sooner or later war." a ndet. only How often the jests of a former age become the sober facts of to ay! The eminent philosopher of Laputa, whose spider factory exait; ed the amusement of Swift's readers, was only in advance of his time, for that pre eminently sober journal, the Board of Trade Journal, tells us that a spider-web factory is in sues cessful operation at Chalais-Meudm near Paris. Here ropes for the mil- itary balloonists are made from spider-web. It doesn't seem 'to be a pleasant operation for the spiders, but does not involve their de-true- tion. They are arranged in groups of twelve above a reel, vpon whigh the threads are wound, and are not released until they have furnished some 30 or 50 yards of thread each: The outer sticky cover of the thréad is then removed by washing, Eight of the washed threads are taken to gether, and from this cords are made, which are stronger and much lighter than silk cords. Ropes! made of spider web are much more! expensive than silk ones, but it is| hoped that the cost of manulactug will be reduced. | = | VV Mr. Fielding says he has cre a large surplus--a surplus of 88, 000---~which would not have collected if the Conservative Gi ernmeet had remained in office, Fisher declared at Malvern the othe day: "This year the people of € ada are paying something like 000,000 less in taxation than they! the Conservative Government ¢i tinued in force." So that Mr. Fis contradicts Mr. Fielding, and sa that the Conservative tariff wo! have given us a revenue, and co sequently a surplus, $6,000,0 larger than the Fielding tariff hi done. These two Ministers © to reconcile their differences. truth of the matter is that the Col servative policy is to take from people no more taxes than then essities of the country honestly ad ministered require. = When MM Foster found the revenue increas he cut down the taxes, and left'th money in business, In 1890 m duties were lowered, and in raw sugar was made free.

Idonot want anything better than to stand for law or order as against this-" John Proctor Clark put himself in iront of the Governor and shouted: Get inside the car, Theodore. Don't stand outside here; get inside" What the Governor said would not appear well in print. He would not budge. He rebuked Mr. Clark, but the latter said : "Well, I'll be in front of you whenever there is trou- ble."

"What about canned beet ?' shouted a man in the crowd. The Governor answered this. He bent over the rail of the car and his face was down almost to a level of his questioner. He said to him: "1 ateiit ; you never ate it, and Lou never were and never will be within five miles of a bullet," Sherman Bell ranged himself by the Gover nor's side. The kharki boys and former Rough Riders were close be- hind him. They were fighting mad. "Keep cool, boys," said the Gover- nor. "I'm your Colonel now, Law and order must be preserved. I ex- pect you to aid in that. Don't mind cl vicious doctrines, "Some ofthe Liberal much exercised over the fact that the Conservative leaders have not entirely new matter for every day's speech, They have forgotten Sir Wilfrid's western tour, when he recited the same speech in the same words day after day until his audit- ors as well as himself knew it off by heart. Carroll C. Wright, United States commissioner of labor, has prepar- ed a report on municipal ownership The figures show that of the 3,226 water-works in the United States 53.73 per cent are owned by cities and towns and 46.27 per cent, by private companies. There are g 35 gas works in operation, and 98.55 per cent. are owned by individuals, the remainder by municipalities The electric lighting plants number 3,032, but only 15.47 per cent. of these are owned by the cities and towns they light. The Hon. Mr, Paterson asserted at Winnipeg that the Liberal party was not responsible for the individ- val utterances of its leaders. The Hon. Mr. Blair declared in the House of Commons, in apology for the Goverment's shameless disregard of its vaunted principles, that con- sistency was only to be looked for in a fool or dead man, These are Mr. Paterson Aberals could mal hy®sart © pledges, offer any kind of policy, '| profess any number of principles they pleased, and, when the time came to redeem their pledges and carry out the promised policy, the party could coolly ignor the leaders professions and do the very opposite to what liad been promised.

The editor replies: We incline to the opinion that a cement cistern built above ground would not be very satisfactory, Without a frostproof jacket of some sort, the water would freeze in very frosty weather. A few months ago we visited a barn that had a large cement tank, that was well made of Portland [cement, and the water oozed throagh the sides at several points; not enough, how ever, to cause a serious waste of water, but quite enough to make the surroundings of the tank disagree- ably wet, The dimensions of a cistern would depend upon the area of roof to catch the rain, and the quantity of water, required. Gener- ally speaking a cement wall is more satisfactory than a wall of stone masonry. It can be built by or: dinary labor, It is much drier in cold weather. and therefore keeps the stables more comfortable and healthful. A well-built stone wall is not to be dispised, however, and when it can be built cheaply and well, it should give good sat: isfaction. We would favor the cement wall Either Queenston or Thorold cement firms will quote prices of walls on application. writes the So far as successful apple pro- ducing is concerned it seems now well understood that, once begin to bear, the ground should not be allowed in sod, on the oue hand, or cultivated for a regular crop on the other. Brooklin, gives his experience : -- "I sowed buckwheat last year as a cover crop in my orchard, and it ripened sufficently before frost to furnish a capital lot of feed for the hens. Besides this the straw pro- tected the apples from the mud in the fall, and provided a good mulch ploughed in D i Pri 80 8 and allowing hogs to harvest Rony The peas and the falling apples would make an excellent feed for 'hogs, and I would get a crop of hogs and a crop of apples from the same ground."

This brief period is devoted to political turmoil and the choice by the peo ple of a government to rule over the greatest of empires, offers a striking cohtrast to the political methods which obtain in the United States. More than a year ago the parties there began selecting their delegates to the conventions for naming can- didates for the presidency, and from that time till next February, when the electors for president will cast their votes, the country has been wi inue to in a state of tions at issue touch upon fundament- al and constitutional principles of national policy. The President will. not be inaugurated till the fourth of March, and Congress may not be called to assemble till Dec- ember, 1901, or a year after its elec tion by the people. Thus it takes two years in the United States to do what is done in the United Kingdom in less than forty days Among our neighbors the British are regarded as slow-going, but in matters of parliaments and govern- ments they certainly possess a system much more simple and direct, as well as more responsive to the popular will than the people of the United States. Another point to be noted is that, in the short space of one month, the government lield responsible for all that has occurred within an empire contain ing three hundred million people, will be tried at the bar of public opinion, and either reinstated or dismissed. But should the govern ment in power in the United States be condemned by the popular vote, it will remain in office till next March. SAVED THEIR BOY. He had been Weak and Ailing From Infancy.

From the Post, Thorold, Ont. . Mr. James Dabauld and wile are two of the best known residents of the towh of Thorold, where they have passed many years. In their family they have a little son, who, although but ten years of age has experienced much affliction, and his parents expended many a dollar in the search for his renewed health-- all in vain, however, until Dr. Wil liams' Pink Pills were brought into nse. A Post reporter hearing of the cure called at Mr. Dabauld's cosy heme and received full particulars from Mrs, Dabauld. "I'am pleased," said Mrs. Dabauld,*"to havethe pub- lic made aware of the facts of my boy's case if it is likely to help some other sufferer. Charley is now ten years of age. In infancy he was a delicate child, but from four to seven he scarcely passed a well day, At four years of age he began to com- plain of frequent headaches, which later became almost continuous, and soon symptoms of general debility developed. His appetite was poor and he grew pale and emaciated,and the least exertion cavsed a severe palpitation and fluttering of the heart, and dizziness At times there was considerable deragement of his stomach; a blueness of lips and a shortness of breath. He would often lie awake at night and rise in the morning haggard and unrefreshed: During his illness he was treated by two doctors. Both differed in the diagnosis of his case. One said it was catarrh of the stomach, and while his treatment was persisted in there was no improvement. The second also attended him for some time with no better results, Some time after my attention was attract- ed by my aunt to Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. and about September, 1897, I procuredthe pllisand he began taking them. We bad long before come to the conclusion he would be owed to my child to" all means of relief, I was determined to give Dr. Williams' Pink Pills a fair trial. The good effects of the first box was apparent, and five boxes were used, which were taken in about six months' time, when he was strong and well, and could at- tend school, and frolic as other healthy boys do. As every symptom of his old trouble had vanished, I consider his cure complete. The pills have certainly done him a a world of good, as nearly three ears have since passed away and he has not seen a sick day in that length of time. Ishall ever feel that we owe our boy's health to Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills, and believe that their prompt use will relieve much suffering." ~ Dr, Williams' Pink Pill are just as valuable in the casc of children as with adults, and puny little ones would soon thrive and grow fat un- der this treatment. which has no equal for building up the blood and giving renewed strength to brain Sn and nerves.

If there is anything in the fine theory which has been developed to soften criticism of the Minister of the Interior, Hugh John Macdonald must be conceded ability sufficient to fit him for any position in the Government of Canada. Friends of the Able Young Min- ister insist that his remarkable abil- ity has brought upon him the per. sistent criticism of enemies of the Laurier Government. Hon. Clifford Sifton has been for over four years identified with Federal politics -- What an outburst of indignation would have been raised by his friends had the Minister 'of the In- terior been subjected to the criticism and personal detraction which in the last few weeks have character ized the Liberal warfare on Hugh John Macdonald: Clifford Silton's acts have been the basis of all the censure he has earned, The chief grounds for at- tack upon Hugh John Macdonald have been his facial lineaments, the ancestry which he claims and the name he bears, If any man was ever singled out for persistent and unjustifiable criti- cism, that man is Hon. Hugh John Macdonald, but the attacks upon ) bim no more prove him a heaven \ born genius than does the criticism which the Hon. Clifford Sifton has merited make the Minister of the Interior anything more than the mediocrity than he is, o Vienna, Oct. 1.--~The French Ambassador to day delivered to the Foreign Office a note from his Gov- ernment to the powers, outlining a proposal for the settlement of the Chinese question, The note reviews all the proposals that have been made heretofore, and attempts to wo harmonize them. The note recommends the powers shall insist upon the punishment of the instigators of the outrages and of the leaders of the Boxers. It ad- vocates immediate negotiations + with the Chinese Plenipotentiaries regarding the material compensa- tion to be demanded on account of the damage inflicted upon missions and the commerdial i i Chinese Governn those ne- gotiations to include also consid. eration of the jndemity due to the powers themselves. Guarantees are also to be demanded to prevent the recurrence of the outbreaks. France, in. this note, makes the additional suggestions that the 3 Chinese trade in arms and ammuni- tion be prohibited, the forts between Pekin and Taku destroyed, and a permanent guard established in each Legation at Pekin, with the idea this latter shall become eventu- ally a composite international guard. The French note argues that this plan is best designed to preserve the integrity of the empire and the "open door." ; It is ucderstood that an advance bi assent to foregoing proposals has been secured from all the continen- tal powers. [It is hoped that Amer- ica will assent, because the French an meets the views expressed in A) rer reply to the German note but x doubts are ex ed in diplomatic circles as to the acquiescence of Great Britain. It is difficult tor conceive the grounds for these fears unless the French note contains ething which is nc in foregoing summary the
