The match took place at Lancaster on Denmo’s nnk and resulted in a victory for the home time. The senior team expect to play a couple of matches here soon which will offer a good opportnnity to see the home team at its best. The eldest boy of Duncan McRae, of South Lancaster, had a pea shot into his* ear from an air gnn. It became necessary to go to Montreal to have it taken out. The boy is all right again. js^Mr William Stewart, barrister, has ^entered the Canadian chess tourney which is conducted by correspondence. The local chess players believe he will make a good showing. The fancy dress carnival was not so great a success as was expected owing to counter attractions.

An adjourned meeting of this Presbytery was held at Dunvegan on the 17th instant, at one p.m. For nearly five hours Presby- tery conferred with the congregation as to their present condition, after which the court continued in session with closed doors. No conclusion having been arrived at, it was finally agreed that this matter be postponed till the March meeting of Presbytery in Cornwall. It was further decided that the clerk send a definite statement to the Kenyon congregation that no decision has yet been arrived at, but that Presbytery hopes that a conclusion will be reached at the March meeting in Cornwall. D. MCLAREN, Clerk. Wednesday was one of the largest ever seen in our history. Judge Carman presi- ded. A number of cases were very trifling while others were of oonsiderable import- ance. Remember the concert in the. Public Hall on the 26th. The Monarch Ministrels will be the drawing card. Don’t fail to hear them. At the annual meeting of the Public Hall Co. held in the Company’s hall on Friday p.m. the following were elected officers for 1898 Pres,, Jno McEwen; Secy.-Treas., Jno W Smillie ; Directors, J D Robertson, Jas Burton, 0 H Wood, R A Mansell. A dividend of per cent, was declared for the past year. A despatch from Riceville announces the marriage there on Monday of last week of Alex, eldest son of P A McDougall, of this place and Miss Maria Ward, also of Max- ville. Both parties are well known in our midst. The ceremony was performed by Rev W J Ellis. Congratulations. Regarding the item in onr last week’s budget with reference to certain young gentlemen in our town, we are very much pleased to state that the result of the in- vestigation, which we suggested, was, that the parties referred to have honorably acquitted themselves of the charge made against them and upon which we congratu- late them. The outcome of the affair was just what we expected. The party who started the lie is certainly not responsible for bis actions bat he should be taught a lesson that would be long remembered by him. One feature of the affair, which we regret very much, is that quite a number have misjudged our object in referring to the matter in the first place. Borne suppose we did it through a spirit of malignancy or for the purpose of giving the matter publicity, both of which are as erroneous and uncharitable as the spirit which prompted the individual to start the fabriction in the first place. Our object in writing the article was this, we had learned from parties thronghout tbit district that the story was believed by a great many; as people are always more willing to believe bad than good about a person, we wished the thing thoroughly sifted so that we could give the affair a public denial and therefore remove the stigma from-the name of those young men. CORRESPONDENCE. [We do not hold ourselves responsible for the opinions expressed by correspondents.]—ED. WARD 4 CHARLOTTENBURGH. To the Editor of The News SIR,—In the NEWS of the 7th inst. ap- peared a letter from Mr. Wm. Stewart of Lancaster, in which that gentleman freely expresses a few of his ideas.upon the poli* tical situation in the county. To his attack upon Messrs. Stewart and McCallum of Martintown, I need make no reply, as these gentlemen are quite capable of de- fending themselves ; however, the best reply.that could perhaps be made would be to hold before Mr. Wm. Stewart his own mirror for self examination. Here it is “Is it not universally true Mr. Editor, that we impute to our opponents the motives by which we are ourselves actuated and see in them the very qualities which are characteristic of ourselves.” In his letter, Mr. Stewart displays his legal talent in attempting to clear his client upon legal technicalities while ignoring the moral aspect of the question ; thus he tries to justify Mr. D. M. Maepherson’s position on the ground that the convention, which rejected him, was not properly constituted, and then cites two instances to prove that tb$'^ convention J was not so constituted. His criticism of Lhe method followed in the selection of delegates in Martintown, I leave to be answered by the Liberals of that district, and would ask your attention for a few moments to his reference to sub- division No. 4, Charlottenburgh, which was represented at the convention by my father and payself. Mr. Stewart says:—“A dis- appointed applicant appointed another dis- appointed applicant as chairman of com- mittee in his ward, and as disappointed applicant number two could not find an- other Reformer in his ward, who was not favorable to Mr. Maepherson, he appointed himself and his own son as delegates to represent their ward.” Now Mr.Editor, I wish to give this state- ment a flat and decided contradition, as my father did not act as chairman in this ward, nor did he appoint himself or any- body else as a delegate to the convention. For Mr. Stewart’s information, I may state that Mr. D. Cattanaoh, who is not a “disappointed applicant,” acted as chair- man, and in that capacity posted public notices calling the meeting, one of the notices being placed upon the door of Mr. Maepherson’s factory at Summerstown Station and another in each of the two post offices in the ward. Thus you will see everything was done openly and above board. Does Mr. Wm. Stewart deny my right to attend the convention as a dele- gate ?—or must I too possess a large “financial stake” in the county before pre- suming to express an opinion upon any public question. Mr. Stewart further asks, “whom did they represent ?” To this, 1 reply that we represented a large majority of the Liberal and Independent electors of sub-division No. 4, Charlotten- burgh, and if Mr. Stewart be still in doubt, I may add to the information by telling him that it would require some one sharper than even his “Scotland yard detective” to find anything approaching a majority, for Mr. Maepherson in this ward at the pre- sent time. Let us now glance at some of the me- thods followed in connection with the second or so-called Patron convention. It was generally conceded in Patron circles that Summerstown Association was one of the best in the county, yet no one here re- ceived any official intimation that the much condemned “new system”, was to be followed. True, a few electors here receiv- ed official notice of the convention with an invitation to be present, but no intimation was given that delegates representing the views of the ward were required. Evident- ly wo in this ward were not properly “qualified” to send delegates to this second convention. Again, prior to the Reform convention a meeting was held in the village of Lanças- ter, at which delegates were appointed to attend the convention and support the no- mination of Mr. Maepherson, he being the choice of the meeting, and a full report of this and other business .transacted at the meeting was published in the local press. With this we have no fault, but prior to the holding of' the Patron oonvention a second meeting was held in the village of Lancaster, and the curious would like to know whether a full report of this meeting was published, and if not, why not ? It would also be of interest to a great many to learn whether at this second convention Mr. Maepherson refused to accept the no- mination from the delegates until their decision was ratified by the whole meeting, as he claims to have done at the Reform convention—and if not, why not ? Before closing, if space in your journal will permit, I wish to inform Mr. Stewart and others, who, when referring to a num- ber of prominent gentleman in the county* speak of them as “disappointed appli- cants,” “disappointed office seekers,” etc., that those gentlemen are but human and therefore have a limit tq their patience and may,if those epithets continue to be hdrled, deem it a duty which they owe to them- selves and the public generally, to turn such a “search light” upon this question as shall show it up in a way in which it has not hitherto been viewed by the public. I remain, sir, yours truly, ALDAN R. MCDONALD. Summerstown, Jan. 17tb, 1898. THE POLITICAL SITUATION. THE DAVISON CASE. Anothfr Bruce County Victory for Dodd’s Kidney Pills. One More Victory for the Greatest Metli- cine on £arth—The Tide of Cures Sweeps Steadily on—No Case of Briglit’s Disease, Diabetes, or Any Other Kidney Disease can Withstand Dodd’s Kidney Pills. LUCKNOW, Jan. 17.—If the Bruce County residents, who have been cured of Kidney Diseases by Dodd’s Kidney Pills, were to organize a club, it would have the largest membership of any similar body on this continent. Day by day, hour by hour, the number of persons cured by this wonderful medicine increases. Every form of Kidney Disease,no matter how virulent or how stubborn, yields speedily and infallibly to Dodd’s Kidney Pills. A. T. Davison, of Lucknow, was cured of Kidney Disease, recently, by a few boxes of Dodd’s Kidney Pills. His case was an extreme one, and no other remedy did the slightest good. Dodd’s Kidney Pills win a victory over Kidney Disease EVERY TIME THEY’RD USED. They are the only medicine on earth that has ever cured Bright’s Disease and Diabetes. These diseases yield to them as sorely and inevitably as snow melts before the springtime sun. The work of curing Kidney Diseases resembles that of a farmer who undertakes to clear his land of thistles. He may try a dozen methods, but all fail, till be hits on the right one—one that has been de- signed specially for the one purpose, and for no other. So with Kidney Diseases. Yon may use hundreds of medicines, but none will core till you try Dodd’s Kidney Pills. They are made to cure Kidney troubles, and no other. They always do care them. They always will. Dodd’s Kidney Pills also cure Lumbago, Lame Back, Rheumatism, Heart Disease, Paralysis, Female Weakness, GraveRStone in Bladder, all urinary troubles, Sciatica, Neuralgia, Dropsy, Gout, and all impuri- ties of the blood. They are sold by all druggists, at fifty cents a box, six boxes for $2.50, or will be sent on receipt of price by The Dodds Medicine Co., Limited, Toron- to, Ont- To the Editor of. the Glengarry News. DEAR SIR,—“To promote agriculture by disseminating information with respect to husbandry in all its branches so as to in- crease the fertility of the soil, the profits of the farm, dairy and orchard and the com- fort and happiness of the rural population in all parts of the country,” has been stated by the Hon. G. W. Ross to, be one of the planks in the Liberal platform, and it is gratifying to find that this principle which has been so long and so earnestly advocated by Mr.Macpherson has now been adopted in theory at least by the Reform party. If any confirmation were needed of Premier Hardy’s statement in his Lancas- ter speech, that Mr. Maepherson had given him a fair and consistent support, it is to be found in the avowal of the Minister of Education that this principle which Mr. Maepherson has advocated, has been adopt- ed by the government. It remains now for the electors of Glengarry to maintain Mr. Maepherson as their representative until the principle adopted in theory has been embodied in practical legislation. No clearer recognition could be given of Mr* Maophersou’s influence and usefalness in the Legislature than is found in this public adoption of nis principles as part of the policy of the government. In the face of this triumph of principle over party pre- judice, the present dissension and discord among members of the Liberal party in the county of Glengarry, seem trivial in- deed, and I fo'*! disposed to accept without a murmur all the bitter statements my Martintown correspondent has made about myself. Allow me to point out, however, that in his letter of last week, W. A. Stew- art confirms my contention that the Re- form convention of Oct. 28th last was not properly constituted. under the system adopted by the Ex- ecutive, it was the duty of the officer ap- poiuted for each township to appoint a chairman of committee in each ward in his own township, and if Mr. Stewart’s state- ment is correct, the Executive officer ap: pointed for the township of Charlotten- burgb, the premier township of the county, made no appointment in any ward of his township. This statement,which I receive with some hesitation, leaves ns still in ignorance as to how the delegates were in fact appointed, and in one ward it would appear that the disappointed applicant had no son to bring with him and as bis daugh- ter was not eligible, be presumably had to bring with him the stranger who was with- in his gates. In one particular 1 appear to have been inaccurate and am pleased to stand cor- rected. In stating the number of members of the Young Liberal Club of Martintown, who were present at the ward meeting and who undertook to appoint two delegates to the Reform convention, I should have said five instead of four and dividing the con- stituents between the two delegates I perhaps should have given each delegate credit for representing two and ono-half electors, bat as these persons were exercis- ing a double franchise as ward electors and as members of the Y. L. C., I feel inclined to divide the number again by two. Mr. McDermid, in his letter in your last week’s issue, makes the assertion that the meeting “was regularly called,” but as be does not state how it was called, we are unable to judge of the amount of regularity which was sufficient to satisfy Mr. Mc- Dermid, and the very unanimity which prevailed is an indication that no oppor- tunity was given for the expression of a con- trary opinion. The facts remain that only a chosen few had any notice of the meeting and that the great majority of the mem- bers of the club had no opportunity of pass- ing upon the question at issue. If 1 did not refer to all the statements in Mr. Stew- art’s first letter, it was because the rho- domontade of falsehood and detraction with which*, he assailed Mr. Maepherson did not mçrit contradiction and I content- ed myself in pointing out the ridiculous position which he himself occupied. Permit me to say a word in passing with reference to the personal attack upon my- self. To pettifog, means to* transact busi- ness in a small, moan and contemptible manner, and as I have not been favored with W. A. Stewart’s conveyancing busi- ness, and he has never been inside my. office, be can have no possible knowledge of my business methods. Upon this point he speaks with the same ignorance, the same insolence and the same impotence which characterized his attack upon Mr. Mae- pherson. I did not accuse Mr. Stewart of being present at the Martintown meeting, nor did I say anything aboot his repnta- tioD and referred to bis occupation, only to show that he had no permanent interest in the community in which he had done so much to stir up dissension and discord. For the sake of the name he bears, I would be pleased to discover in him an ideal citizen. My reason for combating the position taken by Mr. Maepherson’s critics, is that I believe we have in him a satisfactory representative, and that any change at the present time would be a detriment to our county and country. The experience which he has gained during the four years of his parliamentary life, increases his capacity for serving the constituency which he represents and the adoption by the gov- ernment of the principles which he has ad- vocated, is a strong proof that he has been working on the right line* Wu. STEWART. Lancaster, Jan. 18tb, 1898. We have published a number of letters in reference to the conventions held recent- ly here, and now consider that the matter has been sufficiently ventilated and that the further publishing of letters on the subject will serve no useful purpose. Be- lieving this, we have conclude to close the discussion so far as sneh letters are con- cerned with this issue of the paper.—fEi>. NEWS:] PRESENTATION AND ADDRESS It is not often that a public servant has occupied his position for a longer timO than has Mr. D. B McMillan of this place re- tained the office of Mnnicipal clerk for the Township of Lochiel. For the past 26 years be has faithfully and creditably discharged the many duties falling to that officer and in how satisfactory a manner is indicated by his Jong tenure of office. Mr. McMil- lan, we are however sorry to say, was, thi^ year, owing to ill health, compelled resign his position, and the members of^ municipal council of Lochiel, in behaîN^ the township, decided at their meeting the 10th inst. to appropriate a certain amount of the Township’s funds to be used for the purchase of some suitable gift as a token 01 their appreciation of Mr. McMil- lan’s long and faithful services, the balance to be presented in the form of a well filled purse. The gift selected was a beautifully bound volume of the Holy Scriptures. Accordingly on Tuesday evening of this week the members of the Municpal Council together with a number of Mr. McMillan’s personal friends, met at bis residence. Those present were, Messrs. D. McCaskill, Reeve ; A. A. McKinnon, F. Trottier and D. McDonell, Councillors ; D. A. McDonell, Tp. Treas.; V. G. Chisholm, clerk ; Dun McCormick, ex-deputy reeve ; Jno A Mo- Donell. and Thomas Fraser, Lochiel, and Ed. D. McDonald, 34-1 Lochiel, and D A McArthur, ex-reeve, Alexandria. These gentlemen arrived in a body at Mr. Mo Millan’s residence shortly after 6 p.m. and after being comfortably seated the address which we give below was read by Mr. V. G. Chisholm and. the presentation made by Reeve McCaskill. The following is the address To Dugald B. McMillan, of the Village of Alexandria, Esquire. * DEAR SIR,—Your retirement from the office pf clerk of the Municipal Corporation of the Township of Lochiel, a pos- ition which you have so worthily filled during the lengthy period of twenty- six years with hot only credit to yourself but with advantage to the rate payers of the municipality cannot be allowed by them to pass unnoticed. As the official representatives of the Township we deem it a duty as well as a privelege to bear testimony to the ability aud cousoieutions devotion to the interests of the municipali- ty which have uniformly marked the discharge of the multifarious duties con- nected with the office of clerk, and the unfailing courtesy you have extended towards all who bad occasion to meet you in connection with the affairs of the Municipality. They regret to learn that your retirement has been caused through ill health which compelled the council very unwillingly to accept your resignation. To mark in some slight manner the respect and esteem in which you are gener- ally held throughout the municipality, we, on behalf of the Township of Lochiel, request your acceptance of this volume of Sacred Writ aud the accompanying purse and contents. May you long live to eujoy in the bosom of your family, the blessings and happiness which a useful and well spent life invariably confers. Signed on behalf of the Township of Lochiel. Donald McCaskill, Reeve, D. McDonald,) F. Trottier, | A. A. McKinnon | Councillors Wm. Rankin,) V. G. Chisholm, Clerk. Alexandria, Jan. 18th,. 1898. Mr. McMillan was visibly affected but made a suitable reply. He thanked the gentlemen present for the many evidences of kindness shown him during hie term of office as clerk and stated that he deeply appreciated their present action. From his present state of health ho did not ex- pect to live very long but so long as be did he would remember with gratitude his pleasant connection with Lochiel. He also paid a tribute to the gentleraeu who for the past 26 years bad been the people’s representa- tives at the council boards and stated that daring the time there was no more capable council then that of 1897- Reeve McCaskill then called upon Mr. D. McCormick who spoke in behalf of last year’s council. Mr. McCormick paid a high tribute to Mr. McMillan’s ablity and integrity. He was followed by Mr. D. A. McArthur and Reeve McCaskill, both of whom spoke in eulogistic terms of Mr. Mc- Millan both as a man and in his official capacity. An invitation was then extended to those present to repair to the dining room where sapper awaited them, soon afterwards what proved a most pleasant meeting broke up and probably the last tie that bound Mr. McMillan to the township of Lochiel in an official capacity was severed.

It was further decided that the clerk send a definite statement to the Kenyon congregation that no decision has yet been arrived at, but that Presbytery hopes that a conclusion will be reached at the March meeting in Cornwall.

D. MCLAREN, Clerk.

Wednesday was one of the largest ever seen in our history. Judge Carman presi- ded. A number of cases were very trifling while others were of oonsiderable import- ance.

Remember the concert in the. Public Hall on the 26th. The Monarch Ministrels will be the drawing card. Don’t fail to hear them.

At the annual meeting of the Public Hall Co. held in the Company’s hall on Friday p.m. the following were elected officers for 1898 Pres,, Jno McEwen; Secy.-Treas., Jno W Smillie ; Directors, J D Robertson, Jas Burton, 0 H Wood, R A Mansell. A dividend of per cent, was declared for the past year.

A despatch from Riceville announces the marriage there on Monday of last week of Alex, eldest son of P A McDougall, of this place and Miss Maria Ward, also of Max- ville. Both parties are well known in our midst. The ceremony was performed by Rev W J Ellis. Congratulations.

Regarding the item in onr last week’s budget with reference to certain young gentlemen in our town, we are very much pleased to state that the result of the in- vestigation, which we suggested, was, that the parties referred to have honorably acquitted themselves of the charge made against them and upon which we congratu- late them. The outcome of the affair was just what we expected. The party who started the lie is certainly not responsible for bis actions bat he should be taught a lesson that would be long remembered by him. One feature of the affair, which we regret very much, is that quite a number have misjudged our object in referring to the matter in the first place. Borne suppose we did it through a spirit of malignancy or for the purpose of giving the matter publicity, both of which are as erroneous and uncharitable as the spirit which prompted the individual to start the fabriction in the first place. Our object in writing the article was this, we had learned from parties thronghout tbit district that the story was believed by a great many; as people are always more willing to believe bad than good about a person, we wished the thing thoroughly sifted so that we could give the affair a public denial and therefore remove the stigma from-the name of those young men.

CORRESPONDENCE. [We do not hold ourselves responsible for the

opinions expressed by correspondents.]—ED.

WARD 4 CHARLOTTENBURGH.

To the Editor of The News

SIR,—In the NEWS of the 7th inst. ap- peared a letter from Mr. Wm. Stewart of Lancaster, in which that gentleman freely expresses a few of his ideas.upon the poli* tical situation in the county. To his attack upon Messrs. Stewart and McCallum of Martintown, I need make no reply, as these gentlemen are quite capable of de- fending themselves ; however, the best reply.that could perhaps be made would be to hold before Mr. Wm. Stewart his own mirror for self examination. Here it is “Is it not universally true Mr. Editor, that we impute to our opponents the motives by which we are ourselves actuated and see in them the very qualities which are characteristic of ourselves.”

In his letter, Mr. Stewart displays his legal talent in attempting to clear his client upon legal technicalities while ignoring the moral aspect of the question ; thus he tries to justify Mr. D. M. Maepherson’s position on the ground that the convention, which rejected him, was not properly constituted, and then cites two instances to prove that tb$'^ convention J was not so constituted. His criticism of Lhe method followed in the selection of delegates in Martintown, I leave to be answered by the Liberals of that district, and would ask your attention for a few moments to his reference to sub- division No. 4, Charlottenburgh, which was represented at the convention by my father and payself. Mr. Stewart says:—“A dis- appointed applicant appointed another dis- appointed applicant as chairman of com- mittee in his ward, and as disappointed applicant number two could not find an- other Reformer in his ward, who was not favorable to Mr. Maepherson, he appointed himself and his own son as delegates to represent their ward.”

Now Mr.Editor, I wish to give this state- ment a flat and decided contradition, as my father did not act as chairman in this ward, nor did he appoint himself or any- body else as a delegate to the convention. For Mr. Stewart’s information, I may state that Mr. D. Cattanaoh, who is not a “disappointed applicant,” acted as chair- man, and in that capacity posted public notices calling the meeting, one of the notices being placed upon the door of Mr. Maepherson’s factory at Summerstown Station and another in each of the two post offices in the ward. Thus you will see everything was done openly and above board. Does Mr. Wm. Stewart deny my right to attend the convention as a dele- gate ?—or must I too possess a large “financial stake” in the county before pre- suming to express an opinion upon any public question. Mr. Stewart further asks, “whom did they represent ?” To this, 1 reply that we represented a large majority of the Liberal and Independent electors of sub-division No. 4, Charlotten- burgh, and if Mr. Stewart be still in doubt, I may add to the information by telling him that it would require some one sharper than even his “Scotland yard detective” to find anything approaching a majority, for Mr. Maepherson in this ward at the pre- sent time.

Let us now glance at some of the me- thods followed in connection with the second or so-called Patron convention. It was generally conceded in Patron circles that Summerstown Association was one of the best in the county, yet no one here re- ceived any official intimation that the much condemned “new system”, was to be followed. True, a few electors here receiv- ed official notice of the convention with an invitation to be present, but no intimation was given that delegates representing the views of the ward were required. Evident- ly wo in this ward were not properly “qualified” to send delegates to this second convention.

Again, prior to the Reform convention a meeting was held in the village of Lanças- ter, at which delegates were appointed to attend the convention and support the no- mination of Mr. Maepherson, he being the choice of the meeting, and a full report of this and other business .transacted at the meeting was published in the local press. With this we have no fault, but prior to the holding of' the Patron oonvention a second meeting was held in the village of Lancaster, and the curious would like to know whether a full report of this meeting was published, and if not, why not ? It would also be of interest to a great many to learn whether at this second convention Mr. Maepherson refused to accept the no- mination from the delegates until their decision was ratified by the whole meeting, as he claims to have done at the Reform convention—and if not, why not ?

Before closing, if space in your journal will permit, I wish to inform Mr. Stewart and others, who, when referring to a num- ber of prominent gentleman in the county* speak of them as “disappointed appli- cants,” “disappointed office seekers,” etc., that those gentlemen are but human and therefore have a limit tq their patience and may,if those epithets continue to be hdrled, deem it a duty which they owe to them- selves and the public generally, to turn such a “search light” upon this question as shall show it up in a way in which it has not hitherto been viewed by the public.

I remain, sir, yours truly, ALDAN R. MCDONALD.

Sweeps Steadily on—No Case of Briglit’s Disease, Diabetes, or

Any Other Kidney Disease can Withstand Dodd’s

Kidney Pills.

LUCKNOW, Jan. 17.—If the Bruce County residents, who have been cured of Kidney Diseases by Dodd’s Kidney Pills, were to organize a club, it would have the largest membership of any similar body on this continent. Day by day, hour by hour, the number of persons cured by this wonderful medicine increases.

Every form of Kidney Disease,no matter how virulent or how stubborn, yields speedily and infallibly to Dodd’s Kidney Pills.

A. T. Davison, of Lucknow, was cured of Kidney Disease, recently, by a few boxes of Dodd’s Kidney Pills. His case was an extreme one, and no other remedy did the slightest good.

Dodd’s Kidney Pills win a victory over Kidney Disease EVERY TIME THEY’RD USED. They are the only medicine on earth that has ever cured Bright’s Disease and Diabetes. These diseases yield to them as sorely and inevitably as snow melts before the springtime sun.

The work of curing Kidney Diseases resembles that of a farmer who undertakes to clear his land of thistles. He may try a dozen methods, but all fail, till be hits on the right one—one that has been de- signed specially for the one purpose, and for no other. So with Kidney Diseases. Yon may use hundreds of medicines, but none will core till you try Dodd’s Kidney Pills. They are made to cure Kidney troubles, and no other. They always do care them. They always will.

Dodd’s Kidney Pills also cure Lumbago, Lame Back, Rheumatism, Heart Disease, Paralysis, Female Weakness, GraveRStone in Bladder, all urinary troubles, Sciatica, Neuralgia, Dropsy, Gout, and all impuri- ties of the blood. They are sold by all druggists, at fifty cents a box, six boxes for $2.50, or will be sent on receipt of price by The Dodds Medicine Co., Limited, Toron- to, Ont-

To the Editor of. the Glengarry News. DEAR SIR,—“To promote agriculture by

disseminating information with respect to husbandry in all its branches so as to in- crease the fertility of the soil, the profits of the farm, dairy and orchard and the com- fort and happiness of the rural population in all parts of the country,” has been stated by the Hon. G. W. Ross to, be one of the planks in the Liberal platform, and it is gratifying to find that this principle which has been so long and so earnestly advocated by Mr.Macpherson has now been adopted in theory at least by the Reform party. If any confirmation were needed of Premier Hardy’s statement in his Lancas- ter speech, that Mr. Maepherson had given him a fair and consistent support, it is to be found in the avowal of the Minister of Education that this principle which Mr. Maepherson has advocated, has been adopt- ed by the government. It remains now for the electors of Glengarry to maintain Mr. Maepherson as their representative until the principle adopted in theory has been embodied in practical legislation. No clearer recognition could be given of Mr* Maophersou’s influence and usefalness in the Legislature than is found in this public adoption of nis principles as part of the policy of the government. In the face of this triumph of principle over party pre- judice, the present dissension and discord among members of the Liberal party in the county of Glengarry, seem trivial in- deed, and I fo'*! disposed to accept without a murmur all the bitter statements my Martintown correspondent has made about myself. Allow me to point out, however, that in his letter of last week, W. A. Stew- art confirms my contention that the Re- form convention of Oct. 28th last was not properly constituted.

under the system adopted by the Ex- ecutive, it was the duty of the officer ap- poiuted for each township to appoint a chairman of committee in each ward in his own township, and if Mr. Stewart’s state- ment is correct, the Executive officer ap: pointed for the township of Charlotten- burgb, the premier township of the county, made no appointment in any ward of his township. This statement,which I receive with some hesitation, leaves ns still in ignorance as to how the delegates were in fact appointed, and in one ward it would appear that the disappointed applicant had no son to bring with him and as bis daugh- ter was not eligible, be presumably had to bring with him the stranger who was with- in his gates.

In one particular 1 appear to have been

inaccurate and am pleased to stand cor- rected. In stating the number of members of the Young Liberal Club of Martintown, who were present at the ward meeting and who undertook to appoint two delegates to the Reform convention, I should have said five instead of four and dividing the con- stituents between the two delegates I perhaps should have given each delegate credit for representing two and ono-half electors, bat as these persons were exercis- ing a double franchise as ward electors and as members of the Y. L. C., I feel inclined to divide the number again by two.

Mr. McDermid, in his letter in your last week’s issue, makes the assertion that the meeting “was regularly called,” but as be does not state how it was called, we are unable to judge of the amount of regularity which was sufficient to satisfy Mr. Mc- Dermid, and the very unanimity which prevailed is an indication that no oppor- tunity was given for the expression of a con- trary opinion. The facts remain that only a chosen few had any notice of the meeting and that the great majority of the mem- bers of the club had no opportunity of pass- ing upon the question at issue. If 1 did not refer to all the statements in Mr. Stew- art’s first letter, it was because the rho- domontade of falsehood and detraction with which*, he assailed Mr. Maepherson did not mçrit contradiction and I content- ed myself in pointing out the ridiculous position which he himself occupied.

Permit me to say a word in passing with reference to the personal attack upon my- self. To pettifog, means to* transact busi- ness in a small, moan and contemptible manner, and as I have not been favored with W. A. Stewart’s conveyancing busi- ness, and he has never been inside my. office, be can have no possible knowledge of my business methods. Upon this point he speaks with the same ignorance, the same insolence and the same impotence which characterized his attack upon Mr. Mae- pherson. I did not accuse Mr. Stewart of being present at the Martintown meeting, nor did I say anything aboot his repnta- tioD and referred to bis occupation, only to show that he had no permanent interest in the community in which he had done so much to stir up dissension and discord. For the sake of the name he bears, I would be pleased to discover in him an ideal citizen.

My reason for combating the position taken by Mr. Maepherson’s critics, is that I believe we have in him a satisfactory representative, and that any change at the present time would be a detriment to our county and country. The experience which he has gained during the four years of his parliamentary life, increases his capacity for serving the constituency which he represents and the adoption by the gov- ernment of the principles which he has ad- vocated, is a strong proof that he has been working on the right line*

PRESENTATION AND ADDRESS

It is not often that a public servant has occupied his position for a longer timO than has Mr. D. B McMillan of this place re- tained the office of Mnnicipal clerk for the Township of Lochiel. For the past 26 years be has faithfully and creditably discharged the many duties falling to that officer and in how satisfactory a manner is indicated by his Jong tenure of office. Mr. McMil- lan, we are however sorry to say, was, thi^ year, owing to ill health, compelled resign his position, and the members of^ municipal council of Lochiel, in behaîN^ the township, decided at their meeting the 10th inst. to appropriate a certain amount of the Township’s funds to be used for the purchase of some suitable gift as a token 01 their appreciation of Mr. McMil- lan’s long and faithful services, the balance to be presented in the form of a well filled purse. The gift selected was a beautifully bound volume of the Holy Scriptures. Accordingly on Tuesday evening of this week the members of the Municpal Council together with a number of Mr. McMillan’s personal friends, met at bis residence. Those present were, Messrs. D. McCaskill, Reeve ; A. A. McKinnon, F. Trottier and D. McDonell, Councillors ; D. A. McDonell, Tp. Treas.; V. G. Chisholm, clerk ; Dun McCormick, ex-deputy reeve ; Jno A Mo- Donell. and Thomas Fraser, Lochiel, and Ed. D. McDonald, 34-1 Lochiel, and D A McArthur, ex-reeve, Alexandria. These gentlemen arrived in a body at Mr. Mo Millan’s residence shortly after 6 p.m. and after being comfortably seated the address which we give below was read by Mr. V. G. Chisholm and. the presentation made by Reeve McCaskill. The following is the address To Dugald B. McMillan, of the Village of

Alexandria, Esquire.

* DEAR SIR,—Your retirement from the office pf clerk of the Municipal Corporation of the Township of Lochiel, a pos- ition which you have so worthily filled during the lengthy period of twenty- six years with hot only credit to yourself but with advantage to the rate payers of the municipality cannot be allowed by them to pass unnoticed. As the official representatives of the Township we deem it a duty as well as a privelege to bear testimony to the ability aud cousoieutions devotion to the interests of the municipali- ty which have uniformly marked the discharge of the multifarious duties con- nected with the office of clerk, and the unfailing courtesy you have extended towards all who bad occasion to meet you in connection with the affairs of the Municipality. They regret to learn that your retirement has been caused through ill health which compelled the council very unwillingly to accept your resignation.

To mark in some slight manner the respect and esteem in which you are gener- ally held throughout the municipality, we, on behalf of the Township of Lochiel, request your acceptance of this volume of Sacred Writ aud the accompanying purse and contents.

May you long live to eujoy in the bosom of your family, the blessings and happiness which a useful and well spent life invariably confers.

Signed on behalf of the Township of Lochiel.

Alexandria, Jan. 18th,. 1898. Mr. McMillan was visibly affected but

made a suitable reply. He thanked the gentlemen present for the many evidences of kindness shown him during hie term of office as clerk and stated that he deeply appreciated their present action. From his present state of health ho did not ex- pect to live very long but so long as be did he would remember with gratitude his pleasant connection with Lochiel. He also paid a tribute to the gentleraeu who for the past 26 years bad been the people’s representa- tives at the council boards and stated that daring the time there was no more capable council then that of 1897-

Reeve McCaskill then called upon Mr. D. McCormick who spoke in behalf of last year’s council. Mr. McCormick paid a high tribute to Mr. McMillan’s ablity and integrity. He was followed by Mr. D. A. McArthur and Reeve McCaskill, both of whom spoke in eulogistic terms of Mr. Mc- Millan both as a man and in his official capacity.

An invitation was then extended to those present to repair to the dining room where sapper awaited them, soon afterwards

what proved a most pleasant meeting broke up and probably the last tie that bound Mr. McMillan to the township of Lochiel in an official capacity was severed.

A marked weakness on the part of Mr.

J. F. Whitney and an opposite characteris-

tic on the part of the Hon. Mr. Hardy was

recently pointed out by the Toronto

Telegram, which though known already, is

well worthy of especial note on the eve of

a general election. During the whole

course of his career the leader of the

opposition has shown himself to be the

obedient servant of corporations. When

the interest of a municipality has been in

the balance the weight of Mr. J.Fliny Whit-

ney’s infinence has been cast in favor of

the corporation. On the other hand it is

not to be forgotten that Mr. Hardy’s

record shows that his sympathies and ser-

vices have usnally been given to municipal-

ities and individuals in the right, as

against corporations and capital in the

wrong. This is a very important point

and the electors of Glengarry should con-

sider it well.

THREHJGORNERED CONTESTS

On Friday^of last week the business of the-^onrth see«on of the eighth legislature of Ontario W|I8 topnght to a oonolusion

the 8oene4>f s^fe will now be shortly •ferred from the floor of Parliament to

' ustmgs. as there is little doubt but ^ the general elections will take place , bMher the last week of February .or the

" ■ week of March. With the elections nt '.r at ba4d it is but reasonable that ^eleotore^e ibroo^ioat the Province, in

hands eatirely^i^s the selection of len wbrfWitf advocate their interests,

<he resources of the Province and k watchful eye on the general welfare

.^.ano, should before recording their tes weigh weJI.therodyctive merits and *<ebUitie6 of the men who seek their Aages. Glengarryl in the past has never been *^kwaTd ijLlhto r^ai^ and iu almost y cjsAS" iflir aspirants for political

X. have^>bndu motf of high repute «tes&tng to^- marksd degree the qualities JMMnh 4io a eapable repr^entative. At the predfe: it would appear thô so far county is concerned we

be blessed with no less than three & candidates from which to make the all

important selection, in the persons of U^ iléBsrB. D. C. MoHae, B. B. Maodonaia

Abd D. M./^Maepherson, all gentlemen Wj3S6p|¥ifiii!wllose-personal characters nothing

bA said and who stand high in the of all with whom they come in

a^ by no means lovers of three tmevad^ntests, knowing full-well that snob a contest at times opens up an

^j^venoe through which the choice of one particular party, but not of the popular vote, seoures his return.’ i^owing this it was not 8drpiisin]| to find in the local eleot^^ .of 1894 and again in the

' aSfotihns. held two years later, Liberals of Glengarry, for the time

beu%, froDS leaders down to the ' Inttnjblesf follower m the ranks, sinking

their ambitions as a party and heartily supporting the Patron nominees in the persons of D. M. Maepherson, M.P.P., and J. L. Wilson respectively. In the former oase, as is well known, the efforts of the united forces were crowned with success, but in the latter case, despite the fact that the same forces were found valiantly fight-

ig shoulder to shoulder in support of and economic government, under

of the present Premier, Sir defeat, not victory, fell to

^^U66s that lead up to this ation, are w^ll known

efore need no

Thus, we see, through the hearty co- operation of the Liberals with the Patrons, was, on two occasions, a three cornered contest averted in this county.

A short time ago the very air became charged with policical currents ; leaders of both the groat political parties were found touring the Province promulgating the policy advocated by the party of which they were the head. Immediate organiza- tion was called for and soon Grits and Tories on all sides were actively engaged in preparation for the approaching general elections. The note of warning was not unheeded here in Glengarry and with cs little delay as possible our Conservative friends had placed in the field as their candidate Mr. D. R. Macdonald, of Will- iamstowD. The Liberals were not long in following suit and in convention assembled selected Mr. D. C. McRae, of Bridge End, as their standard bearer. Within a month the Patrons of Industry also met in con- vention here and as a result of their delib- erations once again fixed upon Mr. Mae- pherson as their choice.

That Mr. Maepherson accepted the nomination tendered him by the Patrons of Industry caused little or no surprise as his letter to this paper which appeared in our issCte of the fifth of November last plainly conveyed the intimation that he was still open for nomination and would accept the honor no matter from whom received. But that the Patrons of Indus- try, as an order, which on two^ocoassions, within the past four years, had received at the hands of the Liberal party such genu- ine proof of its good will in endorsing and supporting the nominees of the order, took each a step—did indeed cause surprise. For had not the opportune time arrived for the Patron organization to cancel the debt contracted by them, by in their turn nnanimously agreeing to endorse the can- didature of Mr. D. C. McRae, the Liberal nominee, a gentleman who had for some time been closely associated with them and therefore was no stranger to the members of the order. Such a course it was but reasonable to expeot the Patrons would pursue, but it was not to be. Many mem- bers were willing and anxious to adopt that coarse, but the feelings of generosity and good fellowship entertained by them towards their Liberal friends were soon nipped in the bud by partizan leaders who by tricky manoeuvering succeeded in placing a candidate in the field in opposition not merely to the Conservative party but that of the Liberals as well. A candidate whose mission cannot be termed one of peace, having the interests of the Liberals and Patrons at heart, but one meant to secure, if possible, a split in the Liberal

Buch is the coarse pursued from the outset by Mr. Maepherson and at present seemingly endorsed by the Patrons of Industry. The position occupied by their candidate at present is a unique one in the political history of the county, and one far from enviable.

Having failed in carrying the Liberal convention, Mr. Maepherson in return is prepared to smash the party with whose interests he has been so closely allied for years, and whose principles he professes to yet entertain to a marked degree. He declares himself to be a consistent support- er of the Hardy—Boss administration and as a proof of his consistency adopts a course that will ultimately defeat the ends that government .has in view by pitting himself against the avowed and accepted candidate of Mr. Hardy, Mr. D. 0. McRae. No one knows better than Mr. Maepherson that Mr. McRae is the Hardy Boss candi- date and knowing that fact how can ha for a moment expect or look for government or party support ? Plainly and clearly he will stand out before the electorate of Glengarry in the approaching campaign as the “ Middle Man ” and as such we repeat he can not reasonably look for the support of the Liberal party.

CONCERNING A PIGGERY

The Ontario Opposition has made a mistake, which it is now fain to confess, in charging the Provincial Government with having deliberately disposed of diseased pork for food. Mr. St. John, one of the leaders of the Opposition, discovered, as he supposed, scandalous extravagance in con- nection with the maintenance of a govern- ment piggery. An establishment costing thirty thousand dollars, with a caretaker at a salary of three or four hundred dollars, with a house, were all devoted, according to Mr. St. John, to the care of one pig. The facts seem to have been that the establishment cost from three to seven thousand dollars, according to the method of calculation^ and that the herd of pigs formerly kept in it had all to be killed oiî owing to. the presence of disease among them—hog cholera. Then Mr. St. John discovered, as he supposed, new evidence of wrong-doing of a far worse kind than extravagance on the part of the govern- ment. Many ol the carcases of the herd of pigs killed because of the diseased con- dition of some of them were sold for food. The evidence was directly contradictory as to whether any carcases really diseased were sold or not. The amount of evidence was about evenly divided, but the quality of the evidence differed ; on the side of the pork being quite free of disease was the testimony of the food inspector and of other authorities, besides that o^the butch- er who killed the animals and bdught their carcases, while on the other side was that of two laborers employed at the killing of the pigs. Before the carcases were sold at all they were all duly inspected and pro- nounced clear of disease by the govern- ment inspector. This inspector was a Dominion officer, and the evidence showed that the Provincial Government had placed the whole matter in his hands, and that even if the meat sold was diseased, the Provincial Government, which had taken all precaution, was not to blame at all. At the close of the investigation into this part of the whole affair Mr. St. John admitted that the government skirts were clear. He blamed the government, how- ever, for not stating when the affair was first brought up in the house that the whole of the steps taken by the government with respect to the slaughter and disposal of hogs had been adopted on the advice of veterinaries acting for ike Dominion Government, and that therefore the prov- incial anthoritles wore free from responsi- bility in the matter.—Montreal Witness.

OTTAWA, Jan. 17th.

It is learned upon undoubted authority that the special committee on the Yukon mining laws, consisting of certain members of the Dominion Cabinet, will report in favor of abolishing the rule relating to the sliding scale of royalties upon the gold out- put of miners iu the Canadian Yukon, and will recommend the adoption of a fixed rate of taxation of not less than ten per cent, on the miners’ profits irrespective of whether they be large or small. By this modification in the royalty regulation, as it now exists, the almost insuperable difficulties, which it is said would have presented themselves in the effort to make collections on the basis of the sliding scale, will be largely overcome. This royalty clause has been a favorite weapon of the Tory scribe in his feeble attacks upon the Federal Govern- ment and upon the Minister of Interior in particular. The present law fixing a tax of one-fifth of a miner’s profits provoked a lond and continued outcry, from the time of its promulgation up to the present, against its enforcement. Those who joined in the clamor raised by the Opposition were principally persons interested in min- ing ventures. These enlarged in every conceivable way upon the alleged injustice of the regulation, claiming that to demand a fifth part of the miner’s laborious earn- ings out of the Xlondyko frost-fiinted soil, after he had successfully overcome the terrors and diffiouUies of the Yukon trip, was an indefensible exaction. The thought natnrally suggests itself, when the news is published that snob and such a miner is picking out the golden nuggets from the paydirt of his claim like pebbles from the beach, while his monthly profits are run- ning into the hundreds of thousands, that he would be contributing little enough to- wards the enormous cost of administering the Yukon country, by payment of this 20 per cent, royalty. It would appear but a matter of single justice that these immense gatherings of wealth from Canadian soil, at present chiefly by Amerioans, should be taxed more heavily than products of the poorer claims worked by the less fortunate. Opposition leaders, however, denounce the imposition of any royalty. Their motive for so doing is too clearly apparent. If none had been imposed the fault-finding would have boon just the other way. The Tory press would have. exuUingly pointed o.ut what it would term the evident in- capacity of the Liberal Government in not providing the means of roConping the federal exchequer for the expenditure of about half a million per annum for Mount- ed Police service in addition to the enor- mous expense of the oivil and judicial ad- ministration of the Yukon country.

Hon. Mr. Sifton, who has recently tra- versed the ragged edge of the Klondike, has learned mach from personal observation and from facts obtained upon the spot, that to enforce the royalty clause, as it now exists, would probably defeat the ends, to a greater or less extent, for which it was in- tended to serve. The royalty tax, how- ever, should be made sufficient to cover at least all the necessary expenditure of public money, and the claims reserved by the gov- ernment should be Canada’s share of the rich booty BO long concealed in the frost- bound coffers of that subarctic soil. The law respecting the government reservation of mining claims remains virtually undis- turbed, as they will merely be‘ changed from alternate claims to reservations in groups of from ten to twelve lots, and thereafter they are to be sold at public auction to the highest bidder. This effec- tually disposes of the Tory canard that the government would employ their reserved claims for corrupt purposes, or dele them out as pap to political hangers-on. The Liberal Government is in office pledged to administer the affairs of the country with proper business methods, and all matters affecting Yukon land, or any other public ooncern, will be dealt with in a business- like manner. The Liberal administration assumes to be a business^ one wholly at variance, fortunately, with Tory ethics and condneted on a plain and honest basis, distinctly out of tune with Tory understand- ing and methods. In spite, however, of the earnest endeavors of the government, no matter bow successful they may be, to place the administration of theYnkon upon a ]nst and substantial basis, they are met at every move by the hostile criticisms of the Opposition leaders. Sir Charles Tap- per does not hesitate to give the outside world the false impressions that the pre- sent Canadian government is disposed to treat the lucky Klondiker with the basest injustice by reason of the ‘^monstrous” exactions imposed upon him. In adopting the course, in the mistaken and selfish pur- pose of serving party ends, he, perhaps un- wittingly, allies himself and-his party with the anti-British, yellow journalism portion of the Republic to the south of us. The cry against a modern and intelligent ad- ministration of the Canadian Yukon first arose there and at first assumed a violent and menacing cry ; Sir Charles re-echo’s it, in a modified sense it is true. Upon hie return here last Friday evening, he said to a Tory interviewer I am glad to see that the government is employed in revis- ing the mining regulations applicable to the Yukon, and I believe the world would be searched in vain for any proposals as those which they previously promulgated ; and no greater injury could be inflicted upon the country than an attempt to carry them out.” Unable to formulate against the government any charge having in itsolf a substantial entity, the Opposition is com- pelled to pursue after the shadow. Charges of the flimsiest and most ridiculous char- acter are now made to do duty against liberal administration whether the same be in federal or in provincial affairs. Doubtless Conservative leaders deem it wise and prudent, in their methods of political warfare, to indulge in any sort of fiction to keep the Tory hand in practice so that it may not lose its cunning against that day they blindly fancy is approaching when a resort to their old-time craft might secure an open door to victory. There is a striking resemblance, a strong family like- ness, between the taotics] pursued by the Opposition in the Ontario Legislature and that in the Dominion Parliament. To discover the cause of this similarity and to find its progenitor, one need not travel far a field. The Tupperian influence broods over both, and leavens the whole Tory lump. Unable to bring forward against the ministers of either government, a singlo charge which has the slightest claim to serious attention, they are forced to adopt their present tactics.

FEEDING THE HORSE3.

r-.'oiicT Rations as Tiiey Pass Prom Fall Winter.

Nornlecan bo laid down as to the quantity of the rations that should be supplied either to young growing horses or to those that are matured. What is enough to keep one animal thrifty would starve anoifher. Abont tho only safo mlc is to let tho condition of the animal de- termine the quantity of the ration. It always pays to keep all of tho horses on the farm in good, thrifty condition. This is necessary with the young horses in order to get the best growth and de- velopment, and it is quite an item to have this growth continuous. At no timo is it necossary to keep a growing colt fat In fact, keeping him fat is a detriment rather than a benefit. The ra- tion should be one calculated to develop bone and inusclo rather than fat.

The work teams must bo in thrifty condition in order that they may do the most work iu the least time without in- jury to themselves.

It is best to commence feeding a lit- tle grain or hay in connection with pas- tnrage rather than to allow them to run dowu. It is always best to allow the growing colts to run out every day that tho weather will permit. ColtSj like sheep, need plenty of frosh air and exer- cise, but it is not good economy to al- low them to be exposed to cold or storms.

One of the very best rations that can be given to growing colts is untbrashed oats, ran thongh a feed cotter, to which a little wheat bran is added. If, after the bran is added, the w^ole is slightly dampened, it will bo still better. This makes a complete ration, ns it supplies the material needed for the growth and development of bone and muscle.

It is a good plan to begin feeding a light ration of this iu the fall ns the pastures begin to fail» gradually in- creasing until they are given all that they will oat np clean.

The teams need some grain every day. When not at work, less is necessary than when at work. It is poor economy because the teams ore not at work to let them run down with the expectation of feeding better and getting them into proper condition later on. Tho more economical plan is to feed them enough to keep thrifty all the time. By keep- ing them thrifty now less grain will bo needed to keep them so daring the win* ter.

If, after tho fall vttk is finished up, the teams are given a ten days’ or two weeks’ run in the pastures, giving, in addition, thoir regular grain ration, it will bo a great help in getting thorn into good shape for winter.—St. Louis Republic.

Holpi Hog Cholera Along.

I have known hog cholera germs to be conveyed font miles on the wind, alight in a filthy hogpen and finally destroy all the hogs iu it, while hogs in clean pens near by escaped. There is a great disparity of opinion as to what filth is. Generally it emits a disagreeable scent. A slinking swill barrel or hog trough is not cleanliness, nor* is a bad smeUing hogpen. “Hogging down” corn, espe- cially when the weather is warm, is not a clean proceeding. A hog may eat part of an car of corn, leaw solid droppings on the remainder to fester iu the hot can, cholera bacteria alight upon it and breed, and then another hog come along and finish the ear, diseiMe germs and all. “Hogs following oatne”—well, this is dangerous ground. So many practice it and believe in it that If I should con- demn it all the Toms, ^icksand Harrys from Oklahoma to Ohio would ‘ ‘fol low ’ ’. me with tho precipitancy of a man run- ning down stairs pursned by a kitchen stove, and perhaps, for safety, compel- ling me hastily to seek the shortest way to the tailost timber. So I will let that pass and say nothing about it. Any- thing that weakens a bog’s system makes him more receptive of cholera microbes. In this category can be named too close inbreeding, lereeding from im- mature animals and wrong feeding, as an all corn' diet for young animals, slinking slops, impure drinking water, nesting in cold, damp places and other errors in feeding and care. Disease bac- teria and cleanliness ore antagonistic, and the farmer will not fiourisb if en- vironed by the latter, with this one ex- ception, that there has been a profuse production of the former iu some near- by fountain of filth.—Exchange.

14TO stock Points.

At tbs New York horse show there was one fine Morgan stallion. King Morgan.

Are you going to let yourioattlo and ether live stock stand knee deep in snow or humped up in tho piercing winds this winter? If so, then natnrq will dry np your cows and shrivel and stunt your other stock, taking her revenge out of you in that way.

An even temperature of about 40 de- grees is tho best for a stable of nnj kind. Where it is kept too warm cows are apt to develop lung trouble, and all animals are more or less liable to take cold. A thousand stables are kept too cold, however, where one is too warm.

There were very full entries in the hackney and harness classes at the New York horse show. Mr. Dunham brought some of his handsomest French coachers from Illinois. The classes for saddle horses of various kinds were larger than usual, the polo ponies attracted much attention, while tho high jumpers wore simply out of sight.

A successful horse breeder saÿs that during the winter se.isou ho keeps Iris itallious clean and gives them grain twice a day, with oil the rough feed they want, part hay, part fodder and part clean, bright straw. In tho coldest weather the grain is corn. As summer approaches he incroaJies the grain some- what.

Live stock of all kinds, except is comparatively scarce this season, and the prospect is that prices will be good. At the same time the most tremendous corn crop ever raised :n America has to he eaten up.

BEEF SIRES.

Speoimens of Four of the Great Meat Pr^ ducing Cattle Families.

It is impossible to say which of tho beef families, Aberdeen-Augus, Short- horn, Hereford or Red Poll, is tho best. The Aberdoen-Angus cattle are not |uite so large as the Shorthorn, but they mature quicker, as is generally conceded,

ABERDEEN-ANGUS.

and are not to be beaten as the makers of tender and juicy meat. They are eas- ily kept and fatten for as little cost to the pound as any breed known.

The Aberdeen-Angus bull in the pic- ture is a perfect model of his tribe. Ho has won prizes at the leading agricul- tnral shows for soihe years and is one of the finest animals ever bred In Aiuerioa. He looks one lump, not of fat, but of

ily ever bred. This animal is, however, an imported ono and one of tho finest ever "reared in England, where the Red Poll breed Is becoming such a favorite for beef and milk. Britons still believe it possible to breed for both milk and b0of.

Finally, here is a picture of a super- latively fine Shorthorn lire. He, too, is a British product and is of the best and

pnrest blood ever bred in Scotland. He is now five years old and of a fine roan color.

A cross between tho massive Short- horn and the quick growing Aberdeen- Augus has been tried to some extent and with great success. It is now occupying tho close attention of some of the most careful stock breeders of Great Britain and ought to do the same here.

Good Breeding Stoek Paye.

In Anstralasia and America we have to record fairly fabulous prices for high class breeding animals.

While the low prices of wool and pork have been discouraging to the aver- age woolgrower and swine feeder, the breeders of sheep and swine have not lost faith in the value of well bred ani- mals from families of proved excellenoa Late public and private saie.s of Poland- Ghinas and Berkshires show that ani- mals of the right sort are eagerly sought for l)y intelligent and enterprising breeders. They are alive to the fact that in periods of depression comes the golden time for selection that lays tho founda- tion for the best breeding. They have read aright the history of the stock busi- ness, which teaches that when the “scrub” growers and feeders lose heart the breeders of the best take courage and push farther to tho front They have faith in the be.st and bcliovo it to bo the cheapest at any price.

High prices for well bred breeding stock do not seem to bo limited to the sales or stock we have mentioned. Bulls and rams of high excellence have been taken at large prices for shipment to South America.—Breeder’s Gazette.

NOTICE TO POSTMASTERS

Postmasters are informed that the pro- posed reduction in the postage rate from Canada to Great Britain and other parts of the Empire to three cents per ounce has been suspended, pending a conference with the imperial and colonial authorities in regard to the subject of infer-imperial postage, and in the meantime the old letter rate of five cents per half-ounce continues in force. It is hoped that the postmasters will do all in their power to cause this to be generally understood, so that letters may not be sent forward short-paid, and so subjected to collection of double the defi- cient postage on delivery.

THE ICE MEETING

For some days now men have been en- gaged at harvesting ice. The cut being tak- en as heretofore from the mill pond. Last year wo entered a strong protest against any ice being stored for use, believing that it was impure and unfit for use. The Medical Health Officer had an analysis made by the Provincial Health officer at Toronto, or an attempt at one, as the report, if any, never was made public. This year, we believe, steps are being taken to get a proper report on the matter and in the interim we would suggest that parties requiring ice would delay placing their order till it has been proven beyond question of a doubt that the ice is pure and free from diseased matter.

A FATAL ACCIDENT

^ On Sunday one of our oldest residents, ^Miss Mary McCulloch met with an acci-

dent which proved fatal. She was about to start a fire in a cook stove with coal oil when it suddenlv exnloded, her clothing catching hre. She was alone in the house but managed to get to the door and give the alarm. Neighbors quickly arrived and pnt out the fire but not before she y/^s badly burned.

ROAD IMPROVEMENT

'Mn S. Robson, of this place, returned last week-from a short visit to friends in Huntingdon county. Mr. Robson informs nd that the people of that county are tho- roughly ahvo to the movement in favor of good roads and that recently the townships of Godraanchester, Elgin and Hinchin- brook together with the town of Hunting- don, have jointly purchased a stone crusher for use in the improvement of their roads and streets. The crusher was pûrehased from The Sawyer & Massey Co., of Hamil- ton, Ont., and is a twelve horse power machine, with six inch belt and is cap- able of crushing from twelve, to fourteen tons of stone per hour. The weight is 10,000 lbs. and the cost $1,800 of which the Provincial Government, we under- stand, pays half.

MRS. DUNCAN R. MoDONALD

Many of our readers will learn with regret of the death on Monday last, the 17th inst., of Janet McDonald, relict of the late Duncan R. McDonald, 20-9th Lancas- ter, whose death occurred within the past year. Mrs..McDonald was a daughter of John Allan McDouald, Esq., 13-6th Lan- caster and was but 43 years of age. About 20 years ago she was married and has since resided on the lot on which she died. Her many excellent qualities en- deared her to all those who knew her. She leaves to mourn the loss of a kind and loving mother, a family of four sons and three daughters, and to them we extend our deepest sympathy on the sad loss of their only remaining parent. The funeral took place on Wednesday to Glen Nevis cemetery and was laregely attended. Reqniem High Mass was celebrated by Rev. D. C. McRae.

CHURCH SOCIAL

The splendid socials given under the auspices of the Ladies’ Aid Society of the Presbyterian Church here, are always bo- comiog more popular, as was evidenced by the large number who attended the one given in the beautiful new home of Mr. Jos. Cole, Kenyon St., on Friday night last. The residence, though quité commodious, was by no means too large for the gather- ing, and all enjoyed themselves to their -heart’s content. The programme consisted of vocal and instrumental music, parlor games, &o-., and the evening passed all too soon. During the evening refreshments were served, after which farther games &c. were indulged in. At a late hour the gathering broke up all well pleased with the hospitable treatment they had received at the hands of Mr. and Mrs. Cole and family. The socials have become so popular that no sooner is one over than the question, “where is the next social to be ?” becomes general.

DUNCAN MCKINNON

A well known and highly respected resi- dent of this county, was called away on Sunday last, the 16th inst., when Mr. Duncan McKinnon departed this life at his late residence, lot No. 33-lst Con. of Kenyon. He was 65 years of age and was born near Greenfield, Ont. His illness, though brief, was a painful one, but was borne with that calm fortitude and resigna- tion which was characteristic of the man. Some years ago he was united in marriage with Mary, daughter of John Cameron, Esq., of Greenfield, and sister of Mr. J. J. Cameron, also of that place, and of Mr. Jno. A. Cameron, of the Grand Union hotel here. He leaves to’ mourn the loss of a well beloved husband and a kind and affectionate father, a wife, three sons and two daughters. The funeral, which was a large one, took place to St. Raphaels on Tuesday. After the celebration of Requ- iem High Mass by Rev. Father McMillan the remains were interred in St. Raphaels cemetery, where so many of Glengarry’s sturdy sons and fair daughters have been laid to >-cet.

ELLEN McMILLAN

The many friends of Mr. and Mrs. Dun- can McMillan, of lot No. 24-5 Lochiel, will

jieeply sympathize with them on the deatfi of their daughter, Ellen, at the early age of seventeen years and eleven months. The sad event occurred on Saturday last, the 15th inst., after a brief illness from pneu- monia. For some time past her health was not as good as her friends could de- sire, but until taken with her last illness, there were no immediate fears of her death. The grim destroyer is always an unwelcome visitor but never more so than .when the

Ihe threefiold of life, sbort^hfe Miss McMillan had

maAuers and kindly ways ' woo the deepest regard of all who knew

her aod aU wiR regret her death. She bestSes sev^^ brothers

and sisters to '•Aejqss. The, funer-

al took place at Mr McMillan’s residence on Monday, a large number of friends and neighbors gathering to pay the last sad tribute of respect. Tbe services were con- ducted by Rev. D. Mackenzie who preach- ed a solemn and impressive sermon. The pall bearers were Messrs. Dan McMaster, Dan McMillan, A. 'SV. McMillan, Arch’d McMaster, Hugh McMillan and D. E.

MRS. JOHN R. McDOUGALL

There passed peacefully away on Friday morning, 14tb inst., at the residence of her son, 4th concession Lancaster (Maple Hill), Mary McDougall, in her 89th year. Deceased was the widow of the late John Roy McDougall (fiddler), and was born on lot 10-8th concession Charlottenburgh (Glen Roy), in 1809. Her husband died at Glen Nevis some twenty years ago and also lived to a good old age. Her re- mains were interred at St. Margaret’s church, Glen Nevis, on Sunday last. The funeral procession was a largo and respect- able one and in a manner showed that she was highly esteemed by her neighbors, and well she deserved it, as she was a lady of the old school no one rich or poor ever left her hospitable roof without being treated to the best in her cupboard. Mrs. Mc- Dougall was tbe mother of 14 of a family and retained all her faculties to the last. She was a daughter of John Angus Ban McDougall, Glen Roy, and could give very intelligent accounts of the eariy days of poor old St. Raphaels, when yon could see hundreds of handsome and able High- landers bend tbeir knees in prayer before their lamented Bishop Alexander Mac- donell and poor old Father John. It is sad to see so many of those dear old faces pass away and with them the best part of old Glengarry’s history. She leaves to mourn her loss three daughters and five sons, two sons James and Donald in Leadville, Col.,

in Marquette, Mich., Archie in Mar- dintown, and John on the homeetead, 4th Lancaster. Tbe pall bearers were Hugh D. McGillis and Peter McGillivray, Bridge End ; Donald J. McDonald, Maple Hill ; A. 3. McDougall, Martintown, and A. J. McDonald and John D. McDougall, Dal- housie Station, Que.—Glen Nevis Corres- pondent.

A JOLLY DRIVE

On Monday evening about ses’en o’clock two large sleighs laden with a jolly crowd of our young people, left town, bound for the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Munroe, a few miles west of Glen Roy. The night was beautiful, the air keen and frosty, but this only added to the enjoyment of the happy crew, who, clothed in furs and well nigh smothered under a load of buffalo robes, bid defiance to Jack Frost. The roads were in excelient coudition and tbe horses catching the spirit of the crowd sped merrily along, occasionally prancing and capering in true military style. Taking

the 3rd of Konyon road firing volleys of song^, choruses and shouts as they passed the different houses, then turning up the picturesque road leading to the dam they soon reached the historical town of Michandvillo. The inhabitants were in- visible save one poor lonely fellow who was watering his horse aided by the light of a b.ntern. Him they greeted with three lusty cheers aud a tiger which was duly appreciated. Leaving here Glen Roy was next in order and after “rolling the old chariot along,” and “bringing the jubilee” to this town, they saved their ammunition until the hospitable residence of Mr. and Mrs. Munroe was reached : Then ! “Did ye not hear it ?” the volley fired was terri- fic, bringing mine host out in double quick time who looked to see if the house was still standiug. Assured that all was right in that quarter he accorded the laughing’ shouting gang a real Highland welcome, and you all know what that is like. After doffing layer after layer of coats, jackets, shawls, ire., this crowd then went in for a “gude anld time,” and needless to say they had it. Games, songs, choraaes, <&c., followed, then supper, and such a sapper, everything to tempt the appetite and oh ! that delicious cream, milk and home-m'ade bread and butter, was there over any- thing more appetising ? surely not, and that buttermilk ! didn’t Jim and somebody else have their share ? “Yea verily !” After doing justice to the good things, “all that were able rose from the table,” and tbe fun began again; this was kept up until about 12.30 o’clock when, after singing Auld Lang Syne, God Save the Queen and giving a hearty three times three to the kind host and hostess, the sleighs were brought out, the crowd piled in, good nights were exchanged, then off they sped once more, home being reached about 2.30. All united in saying it was one of the “bestest” times they ever had and the kind hospitality of Mr. and Mrs. Munroe will not soon be forgotten.

He Falls An Easy Victim to Rheuma- tism and Kindred Troubles—A Twenty Years’ Sufferer Tells How He Found Release.

X

From the Richibucto, N.B., Review.

Mr. Wm. Murray, of Cormiersville,N.B., is an old and respected farmer, and a pioneer settler of the thriving little village he now makes his home. While Mr. Mur- ray was yet a young men, he, together with his father and brother, founded one of the best mill properties to be seen in those early days. The mills consisted of a saw mill and grist mill, and were operated and managed by the two brothers. Labor saving appliance** beiug then comparatively nnknown, the young men were exposed to dangérs and difficulties almost unknown to the present generation. One of the greatest evils in connection with the business was exposure to wet and cold, which, though unheeded at the time, have crippled its victim with rheumatism. ID a late con- versation regarding bis disease, Mr. Mur- ray told the following story of bis long misery and final cure by the use of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills “For about twenty years 1 have been a sufferer from rheuma- tism. I attribute the cause of the disease to the time when a young man I worked at our mills. In the w'inter we would haul logs on the pond where the alternate thaws aud frosts of early spring would imbed them in the ice and slush. When tbe time came for starting up the mill I would go out on the pond sometimes in water op to my knees and work away from morning till night chopping logs out of the slush and ice. I was generally wet from head to foot, and every second night of the week I would, without changing my clothes, stay up and run the mill till daybreak. So you see I was for two days at a time in a suit of partially wet clothes, and this would last till tbe ice had melted in the pond. After a few years rheumatism fastened itself upon me as a reward for this indiscretion, and ever increasing in its malignity it at last became so bad that for weeks in sue cession I could only go about with tbe aid of cratches. At other times 1 was able to hobble about the house by the aid of two canes, and again at other times it would ease off a little and I was able to do a little work, but could never stand it for more than a couple of hours at a time. The least bit of walking in damp weather would overcome me and I remember one stormy night when I tried to walk from Cocagne Bridge to my home,a distance of five miles, that I had to sit down by the roadside six times to ease the terrible pain that had seized my legs. During all those years of agony I think I tried all the patent medi- cines I could get a hold of, but they did me no good at all. 1 consulted doctors, but my sufferings remained undiminished. In the fall of 1895 I went to a doctor in Buctouche to see if there were any means by which I might at least be eased of my suffering. The doctor said frankly, “Mr. Murray you cannot be cured, nothing can cure you.” I was not satisfied and then I deterraiued to try Dr. ’Williams’ Pink Pills. I procured half a dozen boxes and began taking them at once. I soon felt a change for the better and after my supply had been finished I got another half dozen boxes and continued taking them according to directions. That dozen boxes was all I took and you see me now. I am alive and smart and can do any kind of work. I did ray farming this spring and could follow tbe plough for days without feeling any rheumatic pains. Yes Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills did me a world of good and I strongly recommend them for the cure of rheumatism.

Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills create new blood, build up tbe nerves and thus drive disease from the system. In hundreds of cases they have cured after all other medicines had failed, thus establishing tbe claim that they are a marvel among the triumphs of modern medical science. Tbo genuine Pink Pills are sold onh' bearing the full trade mark, Pink Pills for Pale People.' self from imposition by that does not_, htiith mark around the box.
