There are few things which would
be greater blessing to mankind thaa
would a habit on the part of all Of look
ing fairly at both sides Of every ques.
ton presented to them. That this is
not the habit of most men is very eti-
dent. The old fable Of the two Knights
who fought until death to maistain their
opinion as to the shield above them and
saw with their dying eyes that both
were right, is as applicable now as
when FIRST written.

ors would endeavor to free themselves
from this fault. Let US remember
there are two sides to almost every ques
ton and that Justice, as well as our own
self interest, demands that we fairly
consider both before deciding. In all
the discussion now so common as to the
dific uIties in the farmers position, no
good comes from refusing to look on
both sides of the question No good
comes from refusing to recognize agents;
railroads arc not only necessary, but
are an absolute good in civilized life.
No good comes from exaggerating the
evils around the farmer, or the profits
of the Merchant. One is naturally
more familiar with his own than with
his neighbours side of question, bus
he should look at each with equal faif-

LARGE DERRIoKs. Thomas Ross, of
the Lincoln Iron works, was on Satur-
day, experimenting the loading on cars
for shipment, of two huge derricks and
the machinery for operating them.
These derricks are going to the quarries
on Dix Island, Maine, where the govern
ment is procuring the stone for the New
York post-office and other public build
ings. They are capable of lifting thirty
tons each. The iron and steel work
about them weighs twenty tons. They
are operated by steam power, but are
very easily controlled, the whole opera
ton of lowering and hosting being ac-
complished by the movement of two
and half foot lever, through about
four inches of space. The size and ca,
pacity of these machines can be mag
ined, when we remark that the large
derricks in our marble quarries lift six
teen tons while these will each hois
| thirty tons.
