" "RADE AND PROSPERITY,’

1 OO

Unper this heading the Patriot deale io ig figures which mean nothing to the in- d:vidual citizen and farmer. Is the world- wide expansion of trade making the peo ple ot Canada~the working people—rich? ‘rat's the question. The men who do

ihe work which results in Natioual trade and prosperity—how about them? Are wages as h'gh as they ought to be? Are

prices as low as they ought to be? These are questions which come home to our artisans and laborers, our mechanice ana our farmers. We believe that the replies of all these classes are that the conditions are not satisfactory. Wages are but litile smproved,—while the prices of all kinds ofarticles needed for home consurxption are considerably increased, Coal, sugar, kerosene cil, paints, thread, gray coitone, bleached cottons, colored cottons, linear, bocts and shoes, clothing, wall psper, furniture, Stored, hardware, crockeryware» common glassware, brooms,—all these things and more,things Which the farmer, mechanic and workirg man wust have, have gone tp in price from 10 to 50 per cent. And with the inerease of price there is aa increase of taxation. Mr, Carbonell showed at the meeting last evening how, by the tinkering of the press eot goveroment with “the tariff, our fishermen are compelled to pay a consid - ersbly increased duty upon the article of cotton duck, which théy*uer; aad as with coiton duck, so wits sbundrede of other articler, many of which are higher in price than they ought to be, simply be- cause of the mismanegement of the Min- isterof Finance end hie colleagues. So that while there has been expansion of ‘rade there bas not been a corresponding amelioration of the condition.of the people.

NOTES AND COMMENTS.

—Io the words of a great Libers!, now gone to his rest, “ the fighi goes bravely on.”

— Sir Crarles Hibbert Tupperand Mr A. C. Beli are bemg received with ove ons by tke people of Pictou County.

—The pronibition plebsrcite cost th country $197,952. Bu. the Proh:biron vote of 1895 was captured by Terte, Laurier & Uo.

— Mr. Maurice B'alre predicts that after the eybth ot November the la» firm of Davies & Hatzard, Attorneys, Solicitore, etc., will be in full ewing.

— Just before the election the electors geteverythiog they desire, regardless of cost. Residents south of the Hillsborough, however, have etill to complain that che ferry etesmer does not ruv uatil 10 o'clock in the evening. Perhaps the auihoritie: will take the hint.

A PORECAST.

Great enthusiasm was roused ix the Tupper Clab las. evening by the ratiling speech of Mr. Maurice Biake, who, besides scoring the Tarte-Laurier combination upon many pointe, gave the result of his careful study of the political situation throughout Canada. Mr. Blike predicts the triumpnant return of Sir Charles Tupper at the head of a victorious pariy. Summed up, Mr. Bleke’s statement of the re -ult of the contest is as follows:

The Patriot ie asked to refer to ihese figures on the evening of 8 h November.

THE TRUTH ADMITTED,

We are very givd to note that The Pat~ riot, in ite Lotice to electors, admits the truth, for which Sena’or Ferguson and Tue Fxamiyer bave all along contended, regarding the secrecy of the ballot, The Patriot says:

“The election law of the Dominion provides for perfect secrecy of the ballot, except in the case of scrutiny before two Judges ofthe Supreme Court. Be ove a scrutiny can be held, the person desiring one mast deporit in Court ove thourand | dollars ee tecurity that he will be suc cessint. No haellot can be examined witil it has been first proved that the voter has no vote, wud vu Vole under eny ¢ rCumeiances Can be examined uoless 1! bas been marked objected to hetore th: vore was given No cote can be marked has
