Mr. Foster hus held eleven remarkably successful meetings in the three east- ern provinces, nnd is to speak during the next two or three weeks in Ontario. Mr. Ames hns gone ull through the west with his campaign uguinst the spoilers nnd plunderers of thu public domain in thut country, thus accepting the challenge to make his charges in the places where the transactions occurred and where the land und timber grafters nre known. buck when they were in funds, then drawing more at election times. These transactions never uppeured in the public accounts, nnd it wus not until the Government wus overthrown and auditors appointed thatl^g Niagam district the public came to understand wtaat|mnllH Annapolis valley PROVINCIAL LEADERS. Sir Wilfrid Laurier can thank himself fur the appearance of provincial premiers and ministers with Mr. Bordon at his future meetings. Among these will he Sir James Whitney, when he returns from England, nnd some of his ministers in the meantime; Mr. Roblin, Premier of Manitoba; Mr. Hnzen, Premier of New Brunswick; and Mr. McBride of British Columbia. Sir John Muedonald wus not disposed to mix federal and provincial politics. Mr. Mackenzie and Mr. Blake took the same view. But Sir Wilfrid Laurier came into otlice by an alliance with provincial premiers, three of whom he took into his ministry. He hus thrown the whole federal influence into every provincial contest since he became premier, declaring that the late Ontario Government was the right arm, and Premier Parent's administration the left arm of his own ministry. Sir Wilfrid's right arm wus neutly amputated three years ago by the people of Ontario. He lost his left by u revolt among his Quebec friends But every Conservative provincial victory bus been obtained ngninst ull the power that the federal administration could exert. THINGS ARE DIFFERENT. When Sir Wilfrid took office he had at his buck the solid support of all the Provincial Governments from the Atlantic to the prairies. First he lost Manitoba, then Ontario, then New Brunswick. A straight Conservative Government has taken the a "suspense" account meant in New iumDia may huve great source of Brunswick finance. Mr. Pugsley is weftltn in lt8 timber, mines anil fish- busy explaining that he gave value oHftg( but tnfl pos8ibilities n( agrl. in extra services for all the over-leuUure nnd fruit growing in those drafts which he bus returned to the , fertUe VnUeys nmin8t picturesque treasury since the change of govern-1 HurroundinKB snou-(, nnt D6 over. ment. Some of these services were rendered eight or ten years ago nnd were supposed to be settled for. Most people thought they were excessively rewarded at the time, seeing that Mr. Pugsley with a nominal salary of $2,100, was in the habit of drawing $6,000 to $10,000 a year from the treasury for legal services. RATHER COWARDLY. looked "I found the same ideal conditions existing in young orchards situated on both banks of thu Arrow lakes, these expansions of the Columbia river whose scenery reminded mt so much of Switzerland. We also enjoyed a little excursion into Fire valley," The members nf thc commission who did not take the the Kootenays have impressed by the glowing report from Mr. Hodge nnd his associates whi came through the district. Ohlpman, Sept. 2,—Ono of the most Charming weddings of the season took place this morning at mc Baptist church, Ohlpman, whon Miss Grace, third daughter of Mr. and Mrs. 10. K. Orandall, was united in marriage to Irving Howard Wilson of Oranbrook, B, 0. The ceremony wus performed hy the Rev. Milton Addison, the pastor, At precisely ten o'clock the bride, attired in cream ooltenno beautifully trimmed with Irish lace and insertion, wearing tho customary veil of tulle and nnd currying a large bouquet ol white roses, marched down the aisle on her father's arm to thc strains of The Voice that Breathed O'er Eden rendered hy the choir. She was attended by her little sister Esther, sweetly gowned In white point d'esprit with trimmings of baby ribbon and a lovely basket ot flowers on her arm. The groom was unattended . Tho church was exquisitely decorated by the young people under Miss McMurray's supervision with cut flowers and plunts, the alta heing entirely banked with moss und carnations. Tho arch over thu choir was done in golden glow und ferns. At the finish of the service Mendcls- shou's wedding march begun, during which the bridal party departed to the home of the bride, where a sumptuous luncheon awaited them.

When the House met he was challenged to make his charges there to Mr. Borden's face. Among others who made this challenge was Mr. A. E. Kemp, of Toronto. It came naturally from him, because Mr. Pugsley's attack on Mr. Borden was in the form of a reply to statements made in Toronto by Mr. Kemp. When Mr. Kemp faced Mr. Pugsley in the House he said among other things: "The Hon. Gentloman (Mr. Pugsley) has resorted to the lowest Bort of a campaign in this matter. He has gone before the public meetings of his partisan supporters and he has made statements which I challenge him to make in this House face to face with us.-Now I hope ( tainB ^ that the Minister of Public Works „.*„»„■>«„. aa «,aii „ «i«fc will deem it his duty to muke good |«"L,°uraB,s ______ a l_ i ..•.„■._.. ..,'..1.1. ~* t-Vw.

Sir Wilfrid is further embarrassed with the presence in bis cabinet or the chief personage of thc late New Brunswick Government, which last March went, down in disgrnce before an Indignant population, and has been still further discredited by dis- House by saying that Mr. Kemp was unworthy of his attention, though it was thc same Mr. Kemp whose remarks called lorth Mr. Pugsley's original statements.

Mr. Pettipiece resides in Vancouver where he conducts a labor pnper,- Mudicine Hat News. Still in the ring Vancouver, Sept. Ifi.— Joe. Martin K. O., announced today that he would accept the nomination of thc Asiatic exclusion league and would remain in the light to thc finish. His nomination was carried at a meeting held lust night. Smith Curtis says: "The development, of this country has been due to the energy and enterprise of its people." Surprisingly shocking candor from so radical partisan of Sir Wilfrid Laurier.

A new slang phrase has been coin ed in Newport. It is "bubble." "I had a trifle of a bubble on last night" may signify anything from a dinner to u bout of cards.

Well, "bubble" is certainly fresh. closest interest, lt is the King's custom on Sundays to walk to church, while the Queen und other iudies drive. His Majesty joins in the hymns, his deep, powerful voice | being plainly henrd, as everyone knows, a sermon delivered before the King must not last more than ten I minutes. The King is nn ideal host, and ' both the Queen and himself bestow much thought on the individual | tastes of their guests, and all their fads and fancies are remembered, and us far as possible administered to. It is the King's habit to accompany the mun guests to their room, where he will stir the tire and himself look about to see that they j have all that they want. When entertainments such as theatricals take place the King and Queen and the house party enter the ballroom in procession and sit on either side the gangway. Plain evening dress is de rigueur at Sandring- ham, where the frock dress is never worn. The King wears thu ribbon of the garter on festive occasions, how ever. At the conclusion of the entertainment thu royal procession is again formed, and the way is led to the supper room, where no formality is observed. The King goes nbout among the guests seeing that they are having supper and enjoying themselves. A few specially favored ones he takes up to tho Queen, who chats for a minute or two with each. His Majesty is the life and soul of the party on these occasions, and nothing can exceed his amiability and good spirits. All the cups, pieces of plate and such trophies won at races and regattas by thc King are at Band ring- ham, and the King takes great pride in exhibiting them. Sandringham is quite a modern house and was built by the King when Prince of Wales 37 years ago. Above the entrance is carved: "This house was built by Albert Rdward, Prince of Wales, and Alexandra, his wife, in the year of Otir Lord 1870." It is in tho modern Rliznhflthnn style, with no particular pretensions architecturally.

The sisters all looked charming in silk muslin. Mrs. itichardson wore a dainty gray batiste. Mrs. G. H. King, a Copenhagen with eolienne with lace trimmings. Miss Lena Biiird, daughter of Senator Baird und an intimate friend of the bride, wore a princess embroidered net dress with touches of blue and gold. The presents weru numerous and of a costly nature, the groom's present to thc bride heing a pearl pendant, to the little flower girl a gold locket and chain, to the ushers, F. 0. Alexander and F.

Mr. Aylesworth expressed surprise at the announcement and told his acquaintance of his understanding with tbe premier. The fact is not concealed that On tario Liberals regard thu moment as unfavorable to liberal prospects in and in obedience to this sentiment Mr. Aylesworth exacted the promisu that the election date be not fixed in his absence.

It is a game of politics at which neither party has reason to object." Thu above statumunts are made with a candor that is unmistakable, and suggests to the reader, that the game of politics is to bu played to and in the benefit of Smith Curtis, to the detriment of all lovers of a square deal, to an honest and fair election. Smith Curtis, ins "organs" aud "heelers" realize thai thu only pos Bible show for him to win is to delay the election until after the result of the other constituencies is known throughout the Dominion, knowing the tendency of many to be in with the party in power, that these votes would be cast against them were the elections held on the same date as the general election.

The system and methods ol the government wore hostile to the best interests of the common people of the country. It was the men with the "pull" who gol everything, and In their interest thc whole mnchlne was worked. Sltch n system must sooner or later bring disaster, and so we tind many who have heretofore supported the i government, now rejoicing in the prospects of its downfall, Public faith In the future of the Dominion is brlghtoned and strengthened by the exertions of the opposition in the hist session to bring good government oul of chaos ami corruption. • • • • The civil, (or lather uncivil) service of the nonunion is rotten. It [must be wholly changed. Other and better methods o( conducting the business of the public offices of the Dominion must be adopted. The barbades. and grafters must be removed. • • • * Another o( the duties which must be undertaken is a radical amendment to the laud laws so as to bring them In harmony with thc interests o( the people instead of thc monopolist. Immense tracts of land are now held by the grafter and his successors who have not complied with tbe conditions of the purchase or grant made to them, and there are t .ill other areas held under purchase by grafting speculators who have failed in the conditions of payment. There should be a rigid scenting into these matters and where-ever it is possible the lands should be made to nvert tiack into the hands of the government and opened for settlers, under the provisions of the general land laws. The departments of the civil service and the administration of public lands are those which tirst. need attention. There are many other matters of equal importance which need attention, but they may come nfterwards. Black Watch Chewing Tobacco The big black plug.

One noes a long way among them to find n Ross rille in notion, and those that are used in this contest are mostly found in the hands of marksmen in the service of the Ross Company. The men who wish to keep up their record still use the English weapon, which did not cost so much money, but seems to satisfy tbe marksmen. THE CASSELS INQUIRY. Those gifted partisan lawyers who are assisting on behalf of the Government in the ('asset's inquiry have been procuring testimony in Montreal to show that great improvements have been made in the lighting of the St. Lawrence. Some of the witnesses of the lighthouse hoard grew so enthusiastic that the Judge had to remind them that it was not the time for stump speeches The question whether the St. Lawrence should be better lighted was not referred to this Commission, but thc question whether there was dishonesty, extravagance and graft and lack of conscience in the department. It might be possilde to make a good light service without paying a couple of contractors some $2,0011,000 and allowing them 1,000 per cent, profit. Mr. FISHER AND Mr. FOSTER, The Minister of Agriculture is evidently distressed over the success of Mr. Foster's meetings as compared with his own. Consequently Mr. Fisher took occasion at Lachute to accuse Mr. Foster of misusing lhe funds of the Foresters. The Minis tor went so far as to suggest that if Mr. Foster had not. done as he did the Foresters would not have needed to increase their assessments. He did not venture to put this false hood in plain words, hut preferred to convey the idea by insinuation. Mr. Fisher has hud his chance during two sessions to discuss this insurance matter in the House in Mr. Foster's presence, hut never spoke a word. He becomes suddenly hold at the part meeting iu Argenteuil, where there was no reply. Mr Fisher knows perfectly well that tbe change in the Foresters' assessment, was made hecaiise lhe authorities decided that the rate was too low, and absolutely without regard to the result of past investments. He also knows that the Foresters' in vestments through lhe Union Trust ('ompany, under Mr. Foster's man Agomont, were the most profitable that the Foresters over made, lie knows further that the society had ample security for every dollar of the loans which have heen the subject of controversy, and that these investments broughl huge profits to lhe Fores tors. WORSE AND WORSE. August returns show that the revenue continues to fall oil. The short age in customs revenue as compared with the previous year is over a million.

Just to prove merit—to show you how quickly Preventics can and will check colds or the Grippe—I will mail you free ou request these sample? and my book. Simply address —Dr. Shoop, Racine, Wis. Preventics are thoroughly harmless little Candy Cold Cure tablets. No Quinine, no laxative, nothing sickening whatever. To check early Colds or Grippe with "Preventics" means sure defeat for Pneumonia. To stop a cold with Preveniics is surely safer than to let it run and be obliged to cure it afterward. Preventics will however reach a deeply seated cold. Uut taken early—at the sneeze stage— they break or head off these early colds. That is aurely better—that is why they are named "Preventics." Promptness however is all-important. Promptness in the use of Preventics may save half your usual sickness. Feverishtitss, night or day, with child or adult, suggests the need of Preventics. Write Dr. Shoop, Racine Wil., today for Dimples and booklet. Preventics are sold by BEATTIE & ATCHISON. The Niagara Hydraulic Engine The old time ram has been a faith ful servant, It wus good in its way and has served many it guud pur pose, but tlie Niagara is so much better than uny ram you have seen tbat you would not believe there is any relation between them. And tlie Niagara combines all the old ram's Kood points-its independence of at tention, its steadiness and Lnexpen slveness, with a host of other new qualities, Where an ordinary ram could »»'t be placed, on account of thu lack uf sutltcii ut fall in a spring or stream, the Niagara will work most successfully; where an ordin ury ram will pump but little water on account of a small supply, slight fall or great elevation, the Niagara will deliver abundant nnd reliable Stream; where an ordinary lain working to its full capacity, gives Insufficient water for the purpose required, ii Niagara of larger size may be used to give thousands of gallons, Engines have been installed In places Where tbay have pumped day in und day out, year after year, from two to four times us much water us old fashioned rums of equal size had been able to do in the same location. In dozens of sites whoie the common Hydraulic ram, water-wheel pumps and windmills had been tried in vain, bountiful water supplies are now boing furnished by Niagara engines. AS SIMPLE AS A PLOW. Don't infer, however, that the- Niagara is some complicated new-fangled arrangement which .it takes a mechanical engineer to understand, for it is, in fact the simplest of all machines. Its simplicity is its strong point. It is simpler by fnr than even the old-fashioned ram, and will work for years without as much as a drop uf oil. It does not have to be "aired" as all other rams have to be, periodically, an ingenious air-food keeping the uir chamber always supplied. It cun be started and stopped and regulated to pump much or little water by u child, and that is all there is to it, the rest it does by itself. As an eminent railway official said, "The Niagara is the simplest and conplet- .st application of hydraulics that I ever saw. It comes nearer to giving you something for nothing than anything I know of in mechanics". HOW IT IS MADE. The Niagara engine is a neat, compact, substantial machine—it has no wheels nor whirligigs, nor ornaments upon it, and it is made fur bard service. The smaller machines nre made of the highest grade of iron, steel and brass, the larger parts being cast in the finest gray iron, while the rubber packing is the best that money can buy. The larger machines are built of steel, the bases being east in the best open-hearth steel. There is nothing to break or blowup or to get out of order about them and they will wear a life-time. ITS SMALL COST. The Niagara Hydraulic engine costs only a trifle as compared with a windmill, a caloric engine or a gasoline engine of similar capacity. It works day and night, season in and season out, with practically no attention or care; it does not freeze nor water log and will perform service thut no other pump except n steam pump, costing dozens of times as much to install and maintain,and requiring coal and oil nnd an engineer will perform. WHERE IT WILL rtEHVE YOU. The Niagara is adaptable anywhere that springs, or running water are to be found. Because someone has told yuu that you could not get water to your house of farm or mill by any ordinary means, don't calculate on u Niagara engine not being able to supply you. It is for uist such places that wo are looking. If there ls running wator around anywhere within u radius of a milo or two, more than likely wo can arrange to put it in where you want it FOll Dili OPERATIONS, And if you want largo quantities uf wator; thousands or tens of thousands of gallons, then wo cun serve you, for the Niagara is the hydraulic ram which is successfully built in tho larger sizes. Vour idea of hydraulic nuns will undergo a change when you see one of those big fellows. You have seen rams pump ing a stream about like a goose quill and supplying a few barrels a day to some farm or burn yard. We sell little ones like that and they'll pump several times as much water in the same places, but these big machines of ours throw u stream like a fire plug and furnish water enough for almost any purpose you can well Imagine. A battery of two or more of them can be used if no ecssary and a million or more gal Ions n day raised. IT HTANDH ZERO WEATHER. Zonla, Ohio. Jan, 10th l'Jiir>. The Niagara Hydraulic Engine, in stalled by Jonnson & Kiindorburg, of Yellow Springs, two years ago, is giving perfect satisfaction.
