GODERICH MARKETS.
Wheat rose and fell on the Chicago market
Molest week ou aocountof speculative buying,
but the Canadian and Old Country markets did
not sympathize with the fluctuatione It Is un-
fertunate that, at the sea•on of the year when
grain is most freely marketed, there should be
so much buying on paper; but while there is a
Chicago board it will be so. Under such mate
ditions our farmers should watch the European
markete and take them as a standard. A Col-
borne resident the other day said he expectel
to get dollar for his wheat if the Transvaal
trouble should end In a tight. Well. there may
be war, but the price of wheat may not be
raised thereby. for it should bo remembered
that the population of the South African Re-
public (slams than 200,00.1. a number that would
not affect trado In tho least. Wheat has not
varied price the past six day,' .00 the local
market. Oats are half a cent lower, and peas
have gone up three points. Cattle are pretty
non at quotations, and of sheep and iambs the
same may be said. Hogs have been moving
more freely eine° tho v,eather becatne cooler,
but as dealers report a large nutnber of these
animals ready for market, there is not likely to
be any great jump upward in peices at present.
Butter advanced a cent. egg. held ont Jost
week's rate, and pnultry is not in the market.
Tomatoes are worth fifty cents, plums have
sold at the name price, and potatoes aro offered
at last week's figure.
Apples have ruled high this season, buyers
having paid from 91.00 to $1.75, and most ot
the crop hoe passed front the growers* .hand s.
The few unsold orchards are held at a high
figure, $1.75 to t2 being Deiced. It is not likely
the higher flgureavill bo paid, but exception-
ally tine fruit will bring the flrst named suns.

WHY TEACHERS ARE UNDERPAID. -
The Education Depattment has been
obliged to refuse the applications of
nearly foue huudied students who
wished to attend the provincial Norm-
al Schools at Toronto and Ottawa this
year. There are already enough appli-
cations in to fill the Normal Schools
fora year to come. even after allowance
has been made for 100 etudents that
can acconimodetted at the new Lon-
don Normal ' School, which will be
opened in January next. Now, even if
only one -halt of these ,should pass
their examinations for professional
certificates, where in the world will
they get jobeP Of coiirse if they
pursue the miserable and decidedly
unprofessional policy of under bidding
those already in possession of situa-
tions, there are plenty of schoal boards
who would be only too glad of the
chance of getting services on their
own terms.

DIVISION COURT.-Tiler0 waa a
rather long list of causes at the session
of the Division Court on Friday, but
a number of thetn were either settled
out, of rourt,or adjourned till next court.
The principal case was a patent right
one, a vendor of the right to put up a
patent wire fence. having sued Messrs
Young and Tweedy for the tmount of
a note, 550, given for the right. The
trial was by tory, and the defendants
averred that, the signature to the uote
wae obtained hy fi-and, and that the
w,ords veto foe a patent. right." had
been written across it atter. it had
been signed. and co hear out the latter
contention defendants' counsel claimed
that it could be seen that the words
mentioned covered parts of the origin-
al writing in the body of the note. A
Mr. Cook. a witness for the plaintiff,
insisted that the seller was not nearly
so anxious to sell as Yining and
Tweedy were to buy, forgettill ot the
fact, that plaintiff gave the said Mr.
Cook $2 to introduce him to the
defendante. and drive over twenty
nrilem to find out where they were
working. At, the conclusion of the
evidence most of those in court con•
eluded that defendants would obtain a
verdict, but the jurv thought different-
ly and gave a verdict for plaintiff for
$3.5. It rs niost likely a new trial will
be applied for.

A PASTOR ILL -The many former
parishioners and friends of Rev. Mr.
Edge, when he Wft9 a resident of
Goderich, will rend with regret the
following from the London Free Press
of Tuesday: "Rev, Joseph Edge, pastor
of the Wellington Streetealklethodist
Church, and President of the London
Conterence, was taken ell about two
weeks ago, but it was not till early
last week that hie' physicians realized
that he would be confined to his hed
for two, or probably three months.
His condition, though not eerious. is
one that has caused considerable
alarm amongst the inembete of the
congregation. and arrangements have
heen made for supplying the pulpit
dueing the next three months." A
note teceived bv THE STAR yestei day
afternoon said that the trouble was
pleurisy, but that Mr. Edge w as im-
proving so nicely that he hoped to be
able to resume his dirties very shortly.
Lefton. DAY.- -Monday, Labor Day,
was generally observed as a holiday'
consequently the early train was fairly
well filled with excursionists. A large
number of those leaving town took ad-
vantage of the excursion rate to the
Torouto Fair. A few took in the Labor
Day celebration in Stratford, and
others left on visits to different parts
of the Province. The day was fair,
oright ancl enjoyable. though rather
cool, and as there was no other attrac-
tion in town for morning or afternoon
beyond the Gun Club's shoot, there
wsre many picnics, considerable boat-
ing and angling both for bass and
perch. . There was a good attendance
at the shoot, and all present had an en-
jeyahle trine, and one fair tine lookirig
on said it reminded her of an old•faah•
ioned quilt, as it was a game of " hit
and miss." Reports of the picnics show
that those attending them bad a merry
outing, though the wind was a cold one
and the rowers and sailors had a faille
good time. The disciplies of Isaac
t'Valton did not leave a hole in either

Today the property holders of
GoderIch will vote on the bylaw to
loan .$10,000 for twelve years to
the KenSington Furniture Co. A
Meeting held ta discuss the matter
on Wednesday evening, while not
liquely attended, was in the main
favorable to the loan, and we be-
lieve that if the matter is fully un-
derstood by the electors the bylaw
will carry. About the only question
in the matter is as to the security
the town will have, and as stated in
these columns last week, this con-
sists of a mortgage on the plant and
property here, supplemented by
Mr. Rumball's personal liability,
which, judged by his business stand-
ing in London, should be ample for
the amount of the loan. The re-
tention here and the development of
the business to its fullest possible
capacity would mean a large benefit
to the town.
EaCh voter will be given also a
chance to vote on a ballot asking,
"Are you in favor of the rown
Council submitting a bylaw for a
loan to the proposed glass works ?”
Here also the main question is,
what is the security ? The case is
so fully stated in the report of the
committee and the explanations in a
letter by the Citizens' committee,
published on our fifth page, that
further enlargment here is unneces-
sary. THE STAR believes in the
project and thinks the risk is not
too great for the town, if other safe;
guards which are available are
taken. The vote now asked is
merely an expression of opinion
which would guide the Council in
submitting a by-law, and is in no
way binding; but if favorable it
would prepare the way for all neCes,
sary legal Steps and the arranging
of details in such a manner as
would, while promoting and hasten-

protest have sat to lien the evi,
dence of the missing witness Link -
later, who, as. usual, failed ap--
pear, as did also Mr. Garrow's
counsel, nor was arty word or in-
timation given by the defence
showing any desire to have the
proceedings terminated. Mr. Dick-
inson, for the petitioner, submitted
affidavits showm: that Linklater is -
not hiding in his own interests nor
at his own expense, and from the
history of the case and the proceed-
ings thus far it is not difficult for
the public to decide in their own
minds in whose interest he is thus
defying the law and the court.
Mr. Garrow and his friends may
think this contempt and delay is
helping their cause, and will avert
the judgment of the court they fear,
