THOSE HARD TIMES AND THEIR CAUSE. To the Editor of Tum STANDARD: Sir,--Whereas there are many ex- periences in life which seem to be for- gotten, so soon as they are ended, yet there are others which cannot be dis- associated from our mind and thoughts. The writer having been born within a mile or two of the centre of your town, in-the ence thriving village of Prince Albert; having spent the first seven- teen years of his life there and the next twelve in the social and business life of Port Perry--with all the vissitudes of each--you may judge that he main- tains no small interest in their welfare and conditions. Those of your readers who knew Prince Albert.in its bright- est and palmiest days and also know it now, know what wonderful changes have taken place. Well do I remember when for days and months in winter time, the stt_ets of Prince Albert would be thronged with farmers' sleighs bring- ing in their produce and _ keeping mer- chants and others busy. In thinking of those days our minds take in also the men of those times who were engaged in its active business life. Some of them have passed the boundary line in- to the mysterious, unseen life ; others yet linger with us in or near the old SCENES; Uthuin ayo suse =~ narta af tho world seemed to be denied them on thecold plantation, viz., a living. There is yet a Prince Albert there, but change! We who knew the old, and know the present order of things there, alone know the meaning of that change. Now, Sir, though the glory of Port Perry has not, to so great an extent, de- parted, yet we who know what it was jas the contributing cause. ~ | order to e <0 scok "for =whitt' ey such ai} principles do or do not tell us that more and better"food we have to id on, the more and better the thing we wear, and have to wear, mol | better houses we build and ur possessions the better off are ftseems to yme_that, no rea soning man will attempt dé@ény such a single truth. But when we find any | community possessing allthe equipment 'for providing abundant good food and shelter for all men | beasts with- ime ; when @"""ind a_ plenty in its rT produced, even to ab @e, and the capacity for productig awore ; and yet find a condition of affairs existing where- by we aré> prohibited from applying these things to their intended and pro- per use, and so causing suffering for their lack may we not conclude wisely (because truthfully) that what we call "hard times".is directly attributable to an ill-considered and unwise plan of production and distribution? We cer- inly may. If natural opportunities 'are not to blame, then natu God = A of laws are therefore ble for the dollar in existe joyed the without ? by departmental stores th chants complain of a searcii to ask them "What do they 'mean by this claim?" 1 think that they will earcely contend there is less money in world to-day than there was in our perous days, forsuch is not the case. e truth is that this money has been centralised, or localised, in the hands of a few to whom we refer as bankers or loan companies. There are piles of money such as it is, bank-notes and otherwise, but it fails to serve the purpose for which it was originally and proféssedly invented, namely, a means or method of exchange. Is it because the peop'é do not either need or wish the geods in the sts that the hants are idle? iG Poot Place be hands of all the people "this of exchange '--in our present ioney--and the merchants t busy, if that is what they esl e. his shows us that in ct a healthy -cxchange the ublic mustycontrol the '*means of ex- change" of whatever nature that nethod of exchange may be. To-day We are the siaves (worse than that, the wil ms syictims) of our \means of exchange, exchange should t correct? J n Chicago Whereas our means be our slave. Am I certainly am, for only people were found rvimg and granaries bursting with grain. iets these people who were suffering not the) victims of their own methods of ex- change? They certainly were. When we learn that grain was made for food for manand beast and that food is y a necessity for all--therefore its pro- duction obligatory upon all--we will learn that which is a cure to the present deplori ' condition of universal society, This truth ought to teach us 'one, namely, that our labors must be associated or co-operative. That the state owes the same duty of protection to each individ s each individual owes to the sta "God made Man upright but he has sought out many Mas cations." One of these latter is. money, It is written some- where, and ionally we hear it uttered to-day that «the love of money is the root of all evil.

Toronto, May 21.--There was a heavy run of stuff at the Western cattle yards this morning, as yesterday's and to-day's receipts took a total of between 1% and 140-1 ineluding 1:500 hogs, 250 sheep and lambs, 160 calves, and a couple of dozen milkers. For cattle generally, both export and butchers' cattle, the market was a very bad one, and much of the receipts remained unsold. At one time during the morning there were quite a dozen cars which could not be unloaded, as all the pens were full, and there was no space left for the overplus. Except for what little choice stuff we have in, the prices for butcher cattle, while nominally unchanged, were weaker, and a feeling of general: depression and discontent had settled on the market. For good cattle there was a dull sale at stores that are responsible for%all evil, but it is money." Were there no liquor there would be no love for it and no drunkenness. Were there ao money there would no Jove for it and its love being impossible, crime would con- sequently cease. We quiekly see that were there no money our method of production and distribution would necessarily be entirely different. It would needs be a_ public function carried on by the people and for the people. Contrary to the claims of some politicians, we find that while to-day we have government of the people we do-not have this government either by the people or for the people.

As we seem to appreciate the rise while depreciating the fall, may we not in wisdom yates whether or not the fall--or fault in reality--is attributable to Providence being against us or to us work with better social results ne associatedly than in our ngth and then act directly to our own good judgment? hard to kick against the We find that politicians look. ir own Salaries, pup as a government mining, that all their well paid and at last My dear sir, that: is tion in practical form and I am not quarrelling with it; I believe it is wisdon liev' fiat because it is' wisdo' m to apply to the--- fealth or. com- ; y.
