WE have received an eight page pam phlet bearing the following title: "E. D. Goodwin-A Farmer before the Tariff Commission. MT. Goodwin is practi- cal farmer of the town of Salisbury and whatever any one may think about his theory, he certainly presents his views ln clear, practical and able manner He advocates modification of the pres ent tariff rates by reduction of ten per cent, to take effect June 1st next and ten per cent more at the expiration of two years, thus gradually reducing it's average from 45 to 36 per cent.
 He thinks the farming agricultural interest of the Country has been unjust ly discriminated against and says: ''So long as three-6fths of our population are engaged in agriculture, the value of their labor must largely guage that of the other two-ffths, and this law of equaliza- tion must have its force. There is nom- inal and a real value to labor; the latter be- ing its purchasable power over the neces- sities, comforts and luxuries of life. Re- duce both to the same ratio and the fruits of labor remain the same We have cheap and abundant capital and unsur- passed mechanical skill; what you want is cheap raw material and living, and labor in measure to correspond, and but give the New England manufacturer these conditions and her valleys and her plains will preserve continuously her present if not an accumulative activity, with 8 command of the markets of the world for her products. As nation and a people we are not in the infancy of our development and growth; we have the accumulative wealth, the manufacturing skill of the old world, and exceed them all in mechanical devices what we want is not the paternal care of govern ment, but fred policy, more in keep ing with the laws of political economy, tending to reduced cost of manufac- tured products, that they may flow out ward from us, and be consumed by other nations than our own. It is a question of employment and subsistence to over fifty millions, especially so to our city population. We must make the less advanced nations tributary to us by manufacturing more for them, as England, Germany and France do, while the latter consume our surplus farming products.

THE state supreme court has decided that dog is not property at common law, and has therefore refused to prose- cute man for stealing one. This is rather puzzling to the citizens who have to pay taxes on dogs as property, and have grown up in the belief that the obligation to pay taxes rested upon the protection given by the state to him and what he owns.

He holds in effect that seven years absence may be taken as proof presumptive of soldiers death, and such proof shall warrant the issue of 8 pension to his family, if other require ments have been compiled with. This decision IS direct reversal of the prac- tice which has hitherto prevailed that positive proof of the soldiers death was required.

 It is now some time since we have told you anything about our Stock of Clothing, but as Fall is here and Cold Winter is coming, we want to call your attention to some goods in our Stock, which we believe will just suit your wants for the Winter.
 FIRST, However, we would say that change has taken place in our store since last Spring MT. Rogers has left us to take a position in the city. His good will he has left with us, and we shall endeavor to keep his trade as far as possible, if good goods, low prices and telling the truth about what we sell will do it, we shall not lose many custom, CTS, we have not time or money to throw away in buying plates of good or poorly dressed gents to head our advertising columns with, neither do we claim to be editors of an illustrated paper. What we are trying to do is to run our store as cheaply as pos sible and give our customers the benefit of what we can save in rent, clerk hire, cheap advertis ing and buying goods for cash.
 Now a few words in regard to our stock:
