dogma Of faith and may be shown to
be in harmony with the teachings OF st.
Thomas. The theory may encounter
certain grave difficulties in the domains
Of metaphysics and Biblical exegesis,
but do not think that such difficulties
are insuperable At all events, whatever
one may be disposed to think of the
theory, il is well always to bear in mind
that it has never been condemned by the
church. although it has been publicly
discussed and defended for full five and
twenty years.

The Gamers Lost Money.

The tomato Gamers of the Peninsula suf-
fered severe financial losees, as a rule last
year. Those who contracted their goods
before packing and who succeeded in hav-
ing their produce, accepted. have made a
little money; but most of the tomatoes put
in tins have been sold at less than the cost
of production. The year 1898 resulted in
handsome profits to tomato Gamers, and as
result old Gamers last year increased thier
production and many new ones entered the
business. The result is overproduction,
which is rendered easier by dull business
generally. The recent removal of tie tariff
on tin has reduced the price of that article
to such an extent that cans now cost much
less than last summer, with the result that
no speculator will dare carry over any can
ned goods except at prices much less than
the cost of production last season. Added
to this is another fact that tends to decrease
the present price of tomatoes Gamers de-
clare that they will not pay more than S.
per ton for ripe tomatoes next summer, to
the end that they may pack them cheaper.

The closing of s. NJ. Reynolds Store by

for luxuries, should move them to eyen yet
made repeation. Buying and never pay
ing is what is destroying the busi-
ness life of our community.
We are glad to note an indication
favorable to the SUPPRESSION of ''hoodlum-
ism" in our town. The post office and other |
public places have been centers where a |
set Of unruly boys congregate to the great
annoyance of the public. The post Office
officials have been greatly disconnected, |

impudent and possibly irresponsible ele-
ment. The law has finally been invoked as

vile several days ago. In the evening,
while Mr.. Charles Long and his family
were seated in their sitting room, robber
broke open window Of the parlor. which
adjoined the sittingroom, deliberately dead
latched the door leading into the occupied
room, put cartridges into breech loading
gun to be used if need. broke open a small
cupboard and secured S38 in money and
made his escape. 1t is supposed that the
noise made by several children in the oc-
cupied room furnished a cover for the oper-
alton of the thief
