EDITORIAL NOTES.
THE election in West Huron will
be held about the middle of January,
so a dispatch from Ottawa says.
A DISPATCH says that Sir Charles
Tupper, High Commissioner in
London, England, will shortly sail
for Canada, having been summoned
by the Premier.
MR. W. B. SCARTH, of Winnipeg,
has been sworn in and assumed the
duties of Deputy Minister of Agricul-
ture. It seems harder for the Gov-
ernment to get a Minister than a
Deputy.
DR. MACDO ALD goes to North
Ontario to take part in the great
. electoral battle which is being
waged in that Riding. He will
address meetings on Monday, Tues-
day and Wednesday next, in the
interest of the Liberal candidate.
iT Is said that Mr. D. Weismiller,
of Hensall, the lately defeated
Meredith candidate in South Huron,
will be the Government or coercion-
ist candidate for West Huron for the
House of Commons. The Conven-
tion will be held ou the 10th inst., at
Smith's Hill.
THE great Hyams murder trial,

They were'arrested before they got

of attempting to defraud the insur-
ance companies and of conspiring
to murder Mrs, 11. I'. Ilyams.

The Thanksgiving supper held in
the Methodist ehureh here was a
grand success. The edibles were

pronounced. A I andse red in
a style that could not well be sur-
passed. About 250 persons "ate
and were filled," After supper, the
Pastor of the Church, Rev, J. W.
Pring, took the chair and introduced
the following actors on an excellent
programme : Addresses were given
by Revs. S. V, B. Pentland and S.
C. Edwards, I3, D., of Dungannon,
and E. Oliphant, of Benmiller, The
addresses were good. The -Choir of
the Church rendered . excellent
service by giving suitable selections
of music in their own clever style.
Proceeds over $50, to be applied to
Church purposes. — On Sunday,
November 24th, Rev. W. Baugh, of
Auburn, preached a sermon to the
Epworth League of Nile Methodist
Church, the Pastor being ou the
Auburn Uircuit preaching Educa-
tional sermons.—Tho corps of the S.
A, stationed in Goderich held an
enthusiastic meeting in the Orange
Hall of this place, on Monday, Nov.
18th, on behalf of their self-denial
fund. A large number availed
themselves of the opportunity of
hearing these earnest workers, and
a fairly good collection was taken up.
—On Friday, Nov. 15th, one of the
oldest settlers in Colborne Township,
and the oldest member of the Metho-
dist Church here, passed from time
to eternity, in the person of John
Morris. John Morris was a well-
known figure in Colborne Township
for over 00 year's, having settled
here in 1834. Huron County was
then almost a trackless waste and
of the baud of noble pioneers who
contributed to reclaim the wilderness
and make it one of the most delight-
ful portions of !Western Ontario none
deserve more credit than John
Morris. He was but about three
years settled here when the rebellion
of 1837 broke out and • at the call
for voulentecrs he was . one. of the
first to respond and marched from
Goderich to Sarnia to do service. in
the cause of his adopted country.
FIe was selected as one of de mem-
bers of the first council board of
Colborne Township, and was ,re-
elected. for eleven years, when he
retired from that class of.. -:public
life, having done excellent work for
the township during his terra of
service. In politics he was an ar-
dent Liberal and, although not given
to controversy, was always willing
and able to . give a reason for his
political faith. -.He was married in
1830 to Miss Elizabeth Pierce; who
died in 1874, and the- union was
blessed with a family of eight
daughters and three sons, three of
whom have passed away, but the'
following still - survive: . George,
Joseph and Harry, ; all farmers of
Colborne Township, the latter of
whom occupies the family home-
stead ; Mrs. Reid, Mrs. Harris, Mrs.
Beck and Mrs. Holland, of Goderich,
and Mrs. Clifford, of Louisville, Icy.
Twenty grandchildren and eight
great-grandelildren • also survive.
His funeral, on Monday, Nov. 18th,
was one of the largest ever known'
in this part, he being followed by
nearly 150 rigs to his last resting
place. This fact alone abundantly'
testifies to the esteem in which he
was held. The religious services •
were conducted by his Pastor, •Rev.
J. W. Pring, of Nile, assisted by
Revs. A. Anderson, of Goderich and
Henderson of Auburn, all of whom'
visited him during his illness. By
his own appointment his pall bearers
were his three sons, and three of his
sons-in-law. Thus ended as far as
this world is concerned the activity
of an earnest and useful man.
BELMORE.
The annual meeting of the share-
holders of the Belmore Cheese and
Butter Company will be held in this #,

the cheese industry their cordial
