"Tho Colonel " Letter Created sensa-
 tion at Woodstock.
 WOODSTOCK, Ont, Oct. 29.-The pub lication of "Ths Colonel" letter has created quite Q sensation here, and many are now ready to believe that Birchall really had e confederate, as he has all along claimed, and that this confederate did the actual killing.
 Taken in connection with some state msnts of BirohAlps, there is some good grounds for this belief. For instance, Birohall says that when Benwell left him he had on a good strong pair of English boots, in perfect condition, and when the body was found the feet were encased in poor, worn out boots, broken at the sides, which had evl- dently been worn with rubber over shoes.
 The " Colonel's" " letter affords ma terial which supplies the missing links to make Birchall's statements of the circumstances attending the death of Benwell highly probable. Birchall states that if he had had any suspicion that he would be arrested for 6 crime he did not commit he never would have remained in Canada. As many days elapsed between the death of Benwell and the arrest of BirchAll, this fact gives considerable plausibility to Birch AlPs contention.

FRANCE always has to import bread stufrs, and this year the wheat crop is between five and six million bushels less than it was last year. France would, therefore, present an unusually favor
 able market for our agricultural exports
 if it were not for the blow we have struck at France by the new tariff, which is certain to cause reprisals. In July last the French senate voted to double the duty on corn, increasing it from go to 5s cents for 220 pounds, and making the duty on corn meal double that on corn. On October 14 it was an- nounced from Paris that the French government had decided to submit to the senate and chamber of deputies sim ultaneously bill providing for a maxi mum French tariff on goods from countries whose customs regulations are unfavorable to French products, and O minimum tariff on imports from coun- tries whose tariffs are favorable to France. This is "a hit, a very palpable hit at the American farmers. e

OLIVES AND THEIR OIL

The Staple Product of the COuntrles
 Along the Mediterranean Coast.
 The Popular Science Monthly, in aR interesting article, refers to the cultiva- tion of the olive in the regions of the Mediterranean coast as of very remote date, as follows: 'Olive oil there takes the place of butter. Spain has about 5000, 900 acres in olives; Italy, e,250,- 900, and France about 330,0 GOO acres, Forty-hve varieties of the fruit are described. The tree occasionally grows to be sixty feet high. and twelve feet in circumference of trunk. The varieties differ in the nature of the wood, the foliage and the quality and shape of the fruit The fruit Is mild, or sharp, or bitter, and the oils differ likewise; so that a pure olive oil may be unfit for purposes of food, and only fit for greasing ma chinery and making soap. The green, unripe olives, having had the bitter taste extracted with salt, are preserved in vinegar with spices,
 '"The ripe olives are gathered in the fall, when they are as large as common plums. They are of dark green color, and the pit, now become a hard stone. contains a savory kernal. The flesh is spongy and its little cells are alled with the mild oil, which runs out at the least pressure. The finest oil is tho virgin oil, which is made by collecting the treshly-gathered olives in little heaps and letting them press the oil out by their own weight It is clear. and has 8 delicate, nutty taste, with little or no odor.
 "When the fruits cease to give the oil by themselves, they are pressed with small mill-stones, yielding an oil which is also clear and has a pleasant taste. The olives, still rich in oil, are | next put in sacks, boiling water is poured on them, and they are pressed once more. The oil gained by this proc ess is yellowish-gfeen, and has a sharp taste and an unpleasant smell. At Marseilles the olive oils are classed into manufacturing oils for burning, greasing machinery, and soap-making; refined oil; oil from the pulp or husks, and table or edible oil. The last is su- perfine, fine, half fine and ordinary. The table oil is refined by allowing it to run through layers of thin sheets of wad- ding into tin perforated boxes. The wadding absorbs all the thick particles, | and leaves the oil clear and tasteiesN l The olive crop is variable and uncer- tain, and is seldom profitable moro than | in six or eight years"

PoTAToEs are scarce and high here in the east. Up in the Canadian provinces there is an abundance of good potatoes The laboring people of the United States who depend much upon potatoes as an article of diet are compelled to use those imported from Canada, since the domestic farmers cannot supply them. There the Mckinley tax-raising tariff comes in and compels the poor man to pay duty of twenty-five cents a bushel on all that are brought here. That is one of the many ways in which the poor man is compelled to pay to support the outrageous schemes of the republican bosses.

Patience Recommended to Englishmeu

MANCHESTER, Oct. 29.-At the quar- terly meeting of the Chamber of Com merce of this city, Mir.

They are not likely to be materially affected by it's provisions for some years, before which time "there will probably" he said, "be strong reaction in favor o1 free trade in America"

BIRcHALL, the murderer who awaits his execution in Canadian jail, is an inexplicable character. Less than three weeks of life remain to him, and yet he still maintains the indifferent, jovial air that has distinguished him ever since he was arraigned for the killing of his com panion, Benwell. He bids fair to go to his doom buoyed up by the same egotism and nerve that have belonged to him all through life.

THIS is expected to be an eventful week for the sugar trusts. From the very beginning of the organization the stockholders have been kept in almost complete ignorance of the condition and value of their property, and as one i'm portant consequence the certificates have alternately risen and fallen in mar ket price on the slightest rumors and to an extent that makes them far from de- sirable as a permanent investment. It is believed that the real condition of the trust will now be made known, but it is not safe to bet on it.

one of the most southern in Swift

inhabitants. The people speak
the Italian language, and are said
to be opposed to the liberal and
progressive spirit of the other pro-
vinces of the country. 1t is prob
able, therefore, that the insurrec-
ton is another outbreak of the
ceaseless war between innovation
and conservatism. Such wars gen
orally last until one side or the
other is totally crushed, and are
nearly always bloody and ruinous
for the generation that engages in
them. Up to this time, however,
the Federal Government has acted
with great moderation. No armed
conflict has taken place, and it is
possible that by the exercise OF
wisdom and forbearance on both
sides that the revolt may yet be
quoted without bloodshed.-[ Elk.

am surprised at this bill which emanates
from the Cabinet. 1t is like centlpede,
and has sting on it. The sting is the
interest. 1t may bring the amount up TO
100000. 1t is a sort of trap. mere is
something suspicious about the introduce
ton of the bill, and it surprises me 10
see it come from the Reform side OF the
House.
Rep. r. w. Wilcox was III favor OF
Sections l. 2 and of the bill. Section
should be left out. He was glad to see
the bill come from the Reform Party.
They were evidently anxious to do some
thing for His Majesty in return tor his
getting the Reciprocity Treaty.
Rep. Kanealii was not in favor of the
bill, which has been introduced by those
who expect to get some benefit them
selves. The bill was introduced In the
interests of those whom the King owes.
He was not in favor of having the Crown
lands tied up. It is not bill We should
pass in this House. 1t is disgrace to
the House and those who brought it in.
If we pay this debt, will it stop His Ma
jesty's propensity for getting into debt?
1t would have been better for the Minis
tiers to have inserted the $4,000 in the
Appropriation Bill. 1t parades this mat
ter before the public.
Rep. Bush thought the bill confiicted
with the law. The bill was disgraceful to
the King and the country. If the bill he
introduced to put up crown land leases
at auction had passed, there would
have been no need of this one.
The matter should be left with
the trustees. Messrs. Cartwright
and Damon, two of the most expert
financiers in the kingdom had had
the Kings estate in hand, and they have
done we'll by it. What guarantee is
there that the King after paying his
debts will not run in debt again? Noble
CornweIl-Give him chance.) If l
were sugar planter, l would help to
get up present to His Majesty for get
ting the reciprocity treaty, then give him
a lesson and tell him not to be such a
spendthrift l object to the bill.
Rep. Kapaehaole was in favor of Sec
ton /. The Government was not going
to give any money, only guarantee.
At noon the House took a recess.

Mr.. EDIToR-Appended to sweep
ing charges of misstatement by the
Bulletin against the Friend, which
follow the old habit of the former
paper in failing to specify anything,
is one charge which caused US
genuine surprise, viz: that we mis-
represented-and Judging from the
editorial indignation - insulted the

come the regular organ of the Ma
tional Reform Party. We certainly
believed that to be the fact. In
deed, what else was meant by the

ing the statement in the connection
that we did was partly to Indicate
that the present management WAS

madverting. If our statement in
