Liberal - Conservative Candidates fer the City:

Farming Interests.

‘Tue present Government has proved

the farmer's friend. This was said by Mr.

Cyrus Shaw. one of the candidates for the

representation of Cardigan. Mr. Shaw nveved to his hearers, in those few words, mportant truth. After their econom-

il administration, and their efforts to

obtain uninterrupted communication _be- » mainland and this Province, the Liberal-Conservatives are to be credited with intelligent and practical measures to promote the interests of ourfarmers. They

have imported many valuable animals ; they have erected model buildings on the Stock Farm; they have greatly improved our Agricultural Exhibitions, and encour aged the exhibition of stock and other pro-

ducts of our farms in Montreal, Halifax and

St. John, thus gaining for them a high character in the markets abroad and im

proved prices. In p imt of fact, they have

done more to foster Agriculture than any

previous administration. eo -_- -—~»eae e ——.._.._ -. -—- Taxation.

true it would not be necessary to go into elaborate calculations to prove the fact the people themselves would have found it out long ago.

A simple way to demonstrate the truth of tter, is to refer the people to the ex- f the two parties. Expenditure

If the expen- aitures be high, high taxes must follow; if the expenditures be low, low taxes or no taxes will be the result.

Apply this test: The expenditures of the late Government amounted, on the average, to 3552,8382.71 a year; the expenditures of the present Government amount, on the average, to $272,285.38 a year, —S60,600 a year less than those of the late Government.

Editorial Notes.

Trade throughout Canada is better this year than last. The tratlic receipts of the Grand Trunk Railway for the week ending May 29th were $315,318, an increase of $37,874 compared with the correspond- ing week of 1885.

George Augustus Sala, having been in- vited to contest Hornsey in the Liberal in- terest, replies that he would have consented to do so six months ago, but that he is now a heartcbroken desolate old man, utterly without ambition, and with no heart to enter Parliament.

The British House of Commons ts get- ting accustomed to surprises, but it ex- perienced a new sensation on a recent Fri- day, when Mr. J. F. X. O’Brien asserted in the quietest possible tone that he had himself been sentenced to be hanged, drawn and quartered.

The Canadian Pacific Railway will adopt the twenty-four hours’ system in the new summer time-table to come into force shortly. The company also intend to run trains between Winnipeg, Man., and Don- ald, B. C., in forty-eight hours, about half the time at present taken to make the journey.

Mr. George W. Inglis, of the Knowles Steam Pump Works, has been in St. John. To one of the Telegraph staff he is reported to have said :

‘The Knowles’ Steam Pump Works are also supplying the machinery for the ¢ ‘harlottetown water works. These works will have two pumps of 1,000,000 gallons capacity each, One pump will be worked by a water-wheel and the other by steam power. The supply is some distance from the city and about midway between the pumps and the town astand pipe, with a capacity of a quar- ter of a million of gallons, will be erected.”

isn't this Mr. Inglis a little too previous /

— In the course of an article on the fish- ery question, a St. Louis paper says of Canada, that ‘‘ it is intensely Conservative. It is *‘ jingo’ to the very core. Its political

idol is Lord Beaconsfield ; and the man who shapes its destiny, Sir John Macdon- ald, is the echo of England’s great Conser- vative leader. In Canada there is practi- cally no Liberal party.

f fhe Orangemen and Home Rule.

A Dublin correspondent writing just be fore the defeat of the Home Rule Bull, says: ‘‘Noone can be blind to the fact that the ranks of the Orangemen are being recruited every day from the old Ulster Liberal party. Nationalists, or anyone ¢ lse for that matter, are not anxious to see the new Government. of Lreland baptized in blood, and that blood the blood of Irishmen, and these Irishmen Ulstermen. And yet present indications point to an inevitable conflict should the second reading be carried. 1 alluded last week at great length to the movement in the North for arming and drilling the Loyalists. From every part of Ulster warlike preparations are still reported. The situation 1s thus summed up in a leading article in the Belfast News-Letter, the organ of the Orange body :

“The Loyalists are enrolling, arming and drilling, many of the leaders having openly declared for a policy of combat under certain conditions, In this case, in addition to the expeditionary forces marching on Dublin, there would be strong garrisons required in Ulster, and an army of observatisu on the Shannon. An enterprise so serious could not be undertaken by men armed only with shil- lelaghs, and having to deal with a tough foe. When the bugle call to arms is heard, no one need be surprised to see some of the Sniders in the hands of those who have been told they must assume the responsibility, in the event of the Government of Lreland bill pass- ing, of defending the Crown and constitution, the unity of the Empire. The Protestants of Ulster are pledged to resist any and every at- tempt to thrust them out of the Empire, and they may be relied upon to redeem their ledge.’ ,

The handsfof the order inthe north are daily being strengthened by the offers of help which are reaching them from every quarter. The Grand Master of New South Wales telegraphs to the Earl of Enniskillen, the Imperial Grand Master of the Orange- men:

‘‘Orangemen here express sympathy with Irish brethren, Help assured.”

A Glasgow correspondent telegraphs last night :

‘‘ The feeling against Mr. Gladstone’s Home Rule bill among the Orangemen residing in the Partick district of Glasgow is growing very strong, and a canvass has been made among them with the view of ascertaining how many would assist their fellow-countrymen in resist- ing the operation of the bill should it become law. Asa result of this canvass, nearly five hundred men have solemnly sworn to take up arms in Ulster. Many of these men are natives of the north of Ireland, while the in- terest of others is due to the fact that they have relatives there. Some of the men are married, but the majority are single. A large number have passed through the volunteer

force.

it may be assumed that the result of the forthcoming election will be somewhat san- guinary—if Mr. Gladstone be successful.

SS a2 ee This is Sarcastic.

THe Washington Star remarks that: The London Telegraph must be edited by a per- son who has travelled. His ideas of the American dietary show how well versed he is in the customs of our people. Buck- wheat cakes, huckleberry pie and terrapin for the White House wedding supper! Nobody but aa Englishman who has found out all cur national weaknesses could have guessed the truth so accurately. But why should the London newspaper reader be cheated of other details in which he would be sure to take an interest ? Why did not the Telegraph add that the President's wed- ding costume was a blue coat of the ex- treme swallow tailed pattern, spangled with white stars; trousers of red and white, in alternate stripes, with straps passing under the boots; a white fur beaver hat, and a white standing collar, very high and with very sharp points! Why did it conceal the fact that the music was furnished by a band of minstrels in burnt cork, plantation shirts and number seventeen shoes? Why did it not mention, among the other deco- rations in the East Room, the magnificent tier of oxidized silver spittoons provided for the accommodation of the Cabinet offi- cers? And why, oh why, was no reference made to the republican simplicity of the guests, who sat throughout the ceremony with their chairs tilted back and their feet on the Telegraph means well, but he is careless. A writer who knows so much about the social habits and customs of Americans ought not to whet his readers’ appetite for knowledge by telling a little and then leave so much untold.

Death of a “* Ghost.”

A few evenings ago three young men put up a job to frighten a young fellow named Cline, who works in Waterworth’s brickyard, hear Wardsville, Ont. Cline had been out visiting some relatives, and

( rer ,

pass near a graveyard. One of these young men, named H. C, Edwards, provided himself with a sheet and wrapped it around himself in supposed ghost fashion and awaited the arrival of young Cline, who came jogging along slowly on horseback. “he ‘‘ghost” ran out into the middle of the road, where it was seen by Cline, who urged his horse along, but the animal not being fleet of foot, the -‘ghost” could run as fast as the horse, sometimes almost touching Cline, and at others holding on the horse’s tail, This was kept up for nearly a mile, Cline shouting for all he was worth. When near home the “ghost” te’k a cut across the field and arrived at the | gate shortly before Cline, whose shouts had | aroused the Waterworth family, for whom he was working. They opened the door in time to see Cline’s arrival, when he at once asked the ‘‘ghost,” ‘who, or what are you? Answer, or I'll knock you down.” Edwards at once made himself known and ran to his home, which was on the opposite lot. He was thirsty and warm after his long run, and took a copious draught of cold water. Owing tv being overheated it brought on convulsions, from the effects of which he died, just six hours from the time he left Cline
