that the application for receiver made

him as a cautious and conservative man. He
goes on TO say that ''the road is not earning
enough to pay the interest OH its cost The in

what the property can earn. Large sums must

Honorable Action.

This act of the general manager of the
Manitoba railroad is extremely creditable
and will strengthen the confidence in its
management. The Grafton Herald says:
Our readers will recollect that some weeks
ago Mr.. Mott, of the g. NJ. Brush elevator at
Mirto was arrested, convicted and fined on
a charge of stealing wheat by false weight, on
complaint of James King farmer of the
neighborhood. Mott took an appeal snd
made it q boast that he had the ele vator men
back of him, and would fight II
from court to court until King
would be obliged to give in. The effect of
such threats was th at it was proposed by
number OF farmers to present subscription
lists to each member of the board OF county
commissioners and let them canvass in their
respective dist ricts, but the necessity for this
has been removed as Mr. King few days
ago received a letter from A. Marvel, of the
Manitoba road, thanking him for the action
he had taken, and requesting him if in the
future he discovered like action to inform
him and as he understood Mr. King was
poor man that the road would stand all
necessary expenses. Mott has since been
discharged The action Of Mr.. Marvel an
not help but win for him and the Dad he
represents, the good will of every honest
man and is deserving Of the Communications
Of al classes of our people.
