against the return of Mr. C. S. Hyman
M. P. for London, came to a sudden
close on Wednesday last. By agree-
ment the seat was- voided on a single

Church Anniversary
The anniversary services of the Me-
•thodiss church in this village were
held on Sunday last, when Conductor
Snider, of Wingham, preached two
feelingand pathetic sermons. In the
evening every available space in the
building was occupied, and many were
compelled to go away, unable to find
even standing room. The collections
at both services amounted to some
$300.
Pay as You Go.
One good step at the opening of this
new year would be for more customers
to pay cash for what they get. The
cash trade is the simplest, healthiest
and iuost satisfactory all•'round. How
would it be,if everybody resolved to
act on the principle of " pay as you
go' i i — thin year–of grace i - It does
not seem just right that the few who
pay cash should have to make up the
losses of those who are given credit
and don't pay at all. ,

They Ali Want It
This is a most trying , time for Mr.
Hugh Morrison, barrister of Lucknow.
As government candidate at the
last election he has the patronage of
the West Riding in his disposal.
Never in the history of Lucknow has
.our village been honored with the
visits of so manyKincardine politicians
and hungry office seekers. The Kin-
cardine post office is vacant. It is
worse -than the Walkerton jailorship.

Conservative Convention
At the Conservative convention at

a -.candidata for West Huron was left

gallant champion of good government

elections, being strongly urged took

Died in Kinloss
There died on the first concession
of Kinloss, on Sunday last, 17th inst.,
Alexander Graham, aged 74 years.
Deceased was born in Invernesshire,
Scotland. In1849- he came to this
country and settled in the township of
Lobo, county of Middlesex, where he
lived for a short time, coming to Kin-
lossin the year 1854, residing on the
farnm•where he died continuously until
the time of his death. The cause of
his • death was throat trouble, with
which he had been affected some six
or eight weeks. Thus has passed away
one ,of our early settlers, whohad
many qualities that, endeared him to
his own family and gained for him the
respect of the whole community. He
was a member of the Lucknow Pres-
byterian church, and the funeral on
Monday last, notwithstanding the
severity of the weather, was one of the
largest that has ever passed through
the village.
