But. however it is, it is just as bad to cheat the Mayor as my one else, and as there is a remedy pro- - idcd for the Mayor if he wishes to apulv_ that remedy ; if not, he ought to stop whin- ing. Now, Mr. Editor, Mr. `Brown; Mr. Haldwell and the Mayor ought to know that two wrongs never make a right, and _as -wood is theonly thing they have to whine over they are not obliged to buy wood from farmers. They can burn coal, or they can try Mr. Brown, or the railway company, be- cause farmers can't make all the wood grow straight or without knots or sound, and there is not as good a class of wood as there was twenty years ago and they don t paint up the crack as some merchants do with Hawy castings, They generally take the best they have, and some of the wood that goes to Barrie is hauled nearly if not over twenty miles. 0! course, drawing it a long distance won't make it any better, and - though I never sold much `wood, and have sold none for years, I know by `experience that it is dear earned money. I know that those---forgive me, 1 was going to say gen- tlemen--know very well that the farmers have the power if they wish to use that power to turn your town upside down .We _ t want that ; but what we do want is neutral weights and nothing short of that will satisfy us. Nohonest man can reason- ably obiect to neutral weighing. VVhen we take aloud of grain to market we have to take just what we get and say nothing. and it 18 the same with many other things. If we are_not satised we can grin and bear it, so I think we have put up with this kind of treatment long enough. Thankingyou, Mr. hditor, for the space in your valuable paper, I remain, Yours truly. . - Yvnvrau \l?e.. .... ._ IJIU LIULIUBUJI ` N ext, Mr. Editor, I see that the Mayor of your town says, the farmers are a little too suspicious. A farmer is asliable to cheat a merchant as a merchant is to cheat a farmer. And Mr. Caldwell says. More likely." I would just here say that I would like to have that from better authority than either Mr. Caldwell or the Mayor. And. then I may no, they are not, for the simple reason that they have not got the same chance, as we have to `take the merchants weight and measure for what we both sell and buy. And then, some of the merchants keep two s-':ales-0ne to weighwhat they buy on and the other to weigh what they sell on. . Incxt notice that your Mayor says he "never bought an honest cord of wood in his life." Well, Mr. Editor, perhaps, as he makes no boast of his honesty, he never paidan honest price fora cord of wood in his life ; or, as lonest John is a Jack-of-all- trades, he may supply the Mayor with wood, or the Mayor may be one of those men who come sneaking round the market near dark, and if he sees one of thosehorrid farmers that cannot sell his wood, because all the first-class wood is bought up by ladies or gentlemen, he may just to oblige the farmer take his wood at perhaps a dol-. 131' or a dollar and a` half less than market price, and when daylight comes he may find bill ; that what he thought was all good maple i~ nothing but swamp elm ,; or, perhaps he < one of those miserable creatures that l ihinlz tlxnu lwsnuv w.......

Mr. Brown takes it as an insult. If Mr. Brown had said it would be an insult to his pocket, I think he would be nearer right. Does Mr. Brown ever think of all the in- sults he has hea ed on farmers heads by his one-sided way ogweighin in the past? Mr. Brown says, I am one o the Barrie buyers. We do the honest thing. Well sir, that minds me of a story I once heard of a watch that was stolen, and while the police was busy searching for the watch there was -an old tisherwoman kept saying : Honesty is a. brawthing ; honesty is a braw thing. So one of the police thought he would `search honesty; but, oh! horror of horrors! honesty had the watch. Now, Mr. Editor, ldon t mean that Mr. Brown is a sher-i_ woman ; neither do I mean that he would steal a watch ; but I do mean that if a man is honest, he doesn't need to proclaim it on the market square, in the council chamber, or in the newspa yr.
