confirm this latter statement, several rich strikes having been kept dark fora simi- lar reagon.

Commenting on the recent caucuses at Ottawa and the wild protesta of Liberal | politicians and journslista the Montreal Star says: “It certainly looks as if the Ministers would have to attend tothe ap- | petites of their followers or make way for “better providers.” It was not to keep the Tories in office that the arduous cam- paign of 96 was made. This idea that a deputy-minister needs experience is all “poppy-cock.” What he needs is a Liber-~ al record and ataste for Liberal social divers'ons. When he feels the need of re- creation, he should spend the Sabbath with Mr. Chariton, ortry a “‘sraall and early” with Messrs McMilian, McMullan and Mills. At any rate, let the Ministers bewar-re! The great Liberal party is tired of playing the wallflower. It wants to be handed an office on ice, and invited Ont to dance.”

AFTER SMUGGLERS. Mr. Jones is Making it Lively For Them in Cape Britain.

Fred. L. Jones, Inspector of Cus‘oms, is at Guysborugh Nova Scotia and has started proscutions against the gang of smugglers who for years have been Operating in that

part of the couvtry. Amorg the most important indi viduals against whom he bas taken = ac-

tion is Captain Tom Macdoveld whose ex- ploits in evading the customs laws have long bafiled the customs officials. Inspec- tor Jones has, so far, secured thirty copvic~ tions for smuggling in and about North Syduey, not failing im a single case where he started. The prosecu~ tion of several cases is yet to be disposed of there. Last August Soecial Agent Convers J. Smith, of the United States Treasury, was inetructed by the. Secretary of the Trea-urv to accompany lnapector Jones in one of the Canadian cruisers to the French Island of St. Pierre, Miquelon, the rendezvous of the amuggler, to investi-~ gate matters there, and as a result, Mr. Steers,a merchant of that island, who has for four years held the position of United States consul general, and who has suppli- ed a large proportion of the liquors and tobaccoes which have been smuggled into Canada, andthe United States bas been dismixsed by President McKinky, and will be succeeded bv Mr. Cameron, a citizen of the United States.

MR. DOULL’S REJOINDER.

Sir,—Mr. eae 8 Sede “to avoid mi-understanding” calls for a few words more from me. He says he was enamel ing bicycles al] Jast summer and, fall. Yes [ too haye been enameliag bicycles (with air drying enamel!) for five or six years, butthatis not the new industry referred to, Early in Sept. ’97 I began the baking industry for the public. ‘At that time Mr. Large had no enameling oves nor

| were the gas pipes uear his establishment

for months afterward. My claim to being first ie poteven challenged in his letier though the tenor of it would mislead to the idea that he was first.

It is not my des:re or intention to attempt advertising through your correspondence column but that Tam giving tatiefaction is evidenced by the fact that there are today more than double the number of bicycles in my shop that haveever been ar one time sinee I started the repair shop and enameling business,

I shall net fall into his blunder of judg- ing, decrying and misrepresenting work that I have not seen, but sincerely hope forthe eake of his custcmers that his | enamling is vastly superior to the painting of previous years which is being scraped off in my shop preparatory to their being properly — i.
