How Tlie Strike Effects Clinton Owing to the G. T. Railway strike the factories are being bit hard on ac count of not being able to ship out their output or' get supplies in. On Friday dap morning the Doherty Organ & Piano Oo , carted 15 pianos and organs to Blyth there to be transferred t C. P. R., for destination. The Knitt- ing Co., have been reciving their yarn over the 0. P. R. These two examples ought to be enough for the Board of trance Trade to work on to seek an entrance to Clinton for the O. P. R.

Josiah Greene, who com- pleted his fiftieth year in the ministry of tbe Methad'sl t Churchon the „10th 'inst., preached morning -EA evenIng in Main street church on Sabbath last. He spoke of his having preached his first sermon on the Moulinette circuit fifty years since, and of going back . and preaching from the same text in. celebration jubilee, and finding only three persons present in the large eon• gregation who were present at the first service. He gave two plain, ` practical heart-searching Gospel sermons which were listened to with evident interest by the large audiences present. Though passing the 75 -year mark in age, and the 50 year mark as a minis- ter, his voice is still resonant, hie mind° clear, his utterances . ready, and his. spirit earnest. • A Neat Book A splendid souvenir book has been prepared under the auspices of the Temiskaming. Board, of Trade, New Liskeard, the title being "Agricultur- al Temiskaming." On fine coated pa- per, with an 'appropriate cover, • the • work is one of typographical beauty, and reflects great credit upon t h e New Liskeard "Herald Press.'' The title is not entirely 'sufficient, as, be- sides the aggricultural notes, the book has many fine pictures of the promi- nent men and buildings ofthe north- ern town. That there are many fine residences is shown by the reproduc- tion of a number, and the civic enter- prise is shown by photo engravings of the water standpipe. fire' brigade and other utilities •.:of New Liskeard, Cochrane and Englehart. The clay belt zone promises to .be rich in agri- culture as well as -minerals.

Free Trip To Toronto Exhibition For Newsboys Intending To Remove To Toronto Many old time friends will regret to hear that Dr and Mrs Graham pur- pose removing from Brussels with the intention of locating in Toronto where they have purchased a residence. Dr Graham did a good share in adding to the material progress of Brussels and in municipal, social and church inter-. eats always took an active interest as the years have gone by. Mrs Graham was also an enthusiastic church work- er. We are sorry to lose such resi- dents although the Dr still holds con- siderable property here. which will necessarily tie him somewhat to the town, Many good wishes will go with them to the Queen city for an enjoy- able and useful • period in the wider sphere. Dr and Mrs Graham and Mrs Wright expect to leave in the course of 'a month or so -Brussels Post. -Dr and Mrs Graham are well- known to the citizens of Clinton as they resided here for sometime. Great Opportunities The expansion of Business in all lines . of trade and manufacture throughout the Dominion is providing splendid opportunities for bright, well educated Young Men and Women. Tile ever increasing demand for them is very well reflected in the record of the Employment Department of the Central Business College of Toronto, which cannot begin to supply the many calla it receives for well trained help'for Buisness offices. The salaries now paid even to beginners is very much better than in former years.and no field of employment offers better inducements or brighter prospects for a suceessfulfuture than thecommercial interests of our country. A bookkeep or, stenographer or telegraph operator can make a choice of the many ap- pointments offered and can earn a good salary from the day he enters up- on this line of work. Proper preparat ion payes the way and the inflnence of a reputable training school opens the door. • A Municipal Experiment Port Huron. Mich { is about to un- dertake an important experiment in municipal government. Under a new charter it will abolish the office of alderman, and the government of the city is given over to four commission- ers, a mayor and three others. The mayor will receive $2,000 and the com- missioners $1,200 each. The water, fire, park, police and all other boards except the Board of Education and the Public Library Commission, are abolished.. The Board of Education is reduced from fourteen to four mem- bers. The offices of the water board and'that of the city treasurer are to be consolidated, effecting a saving in salaries. The city clerk is made the purchasing agent for the city, under the direction of the commission, The purpose of this is that everything re- quired by the city shall be bought for cash, and advantage may be taken of discounts, which it is believed will amount to thousands of dollars every year. Statements of receipts and ex penditures are to be published roan - laxly in detail, so that citizens will know exactly where their money is going. Polities are to be wiped out entirely. so far as possible, at least. The ballots will not indicate what the candidate is, in the hope that the voter will have regard to theman rather than to hie affiliation, The keynote of the system, in short, is the consolidation of offices, the person'l responsibility of every man connected wan the government of the city. coquet - Isa good Summer game, and we offer a line which will be foun desirable in style, finish, quality and price, which range From 90c to $3.50 hammocks Our trade in this line has been much better than usual this season.
