We hope our oorTVIpnodents sill
make a "big push" and send in their

during the caning winter. We do not
like to miss the newsy notes of our u-

they will put a new energy into their

items pretty steadily. The excellency
of its corps of local news writers is one
of the bouts of this paper. We will be

m. T.. U. i B. weard From.
To the Editor Huron *ps d.
Dees Sia,-Guderich wants a Load
railway. Time was when any town or
village was cuWet with
nue railway.
Now they must have at least two, end if
p seible (Maes. •: hot•e is great datjger of
overdoing railways, it is only to attertain
f our readers who are watching the extent that they create trflic,and tel the
case of Gudench it ie very questionable if
iatlway question closely.
„program', a another railway would increase the ty(
gregate traffic of the county of Huron. It
would to a great extent, if not altogether
only redistribute the traffic. Hence the
difficulty of getting any railway com-
pany to take up such a scheme without a
heavy bonus, and the longer the distance
is the greater the bonus would require to
be.
The idea of getting the Credit Valley
from Elora is perfectly hopeless. No
railway, unless very wealthy, or certain
of a heavy traffic could afford to run
alongside of another railway, and that
such a powerful railway as the Great
Western, for over 50 utile.. The Credit
Valley cannot be called, among even the
n railways. wealthy, as evinced by
last winters legislation, and the new
traffic to be obtained on the western
30 miles could not be so great as to coni-
nsste for running the next 50 fur
little or nothing. The chances of getting
Mr. Broughton to give running powers
over 56 utiles usy be considered rather
slim, or if consent is given, it would be
clogged with such onerous conditions,
that the right would not be worth much.
The shortest road to build would be
the G. W. from Clinton, but It seems,
though rather unaccountable, the people
of Goderich are not in love with the G.
W. The favorite connection ie evidently
the C. V.,as the new route is now talked
of by way of Exeter, St. Marys and we
suppose Ingersoll. Ingersoll is 97 miles
from Toronto, from Ingersoll to Goderich
near 80 miles staking it 177 miles from
Goderich to Toronto, a very roundabout
way of getting to Toronto from Gotlerich.
At least there would be a choice of
routes, but it is easy to see, there would
nut be rough in the way of rates, beceuse
the C. V. could not compete on anything
like equal terms, having 40 miles more
tis,travel. Before the C. V. could take
up such a project, it would require ac-
cording to its antecedents,a bonus of five
thousand dollars a mile, in all in the
neighborhood of $400,000, and it is
doubtful if Government aid can now be
obtained.
1 would take the liberty to suggest,
(your disclaimer notwithstanding) that
you should endeavor to make a con-
nection with the T., G. & B. R. The
chance of the G. T. obtaining control of
it is very .lint. The original shares and
bonds are almost entirely in the hands of
sten determinedly- in opposition to the
Grand Trunk, and who will never allow
that colnpany to obtain control of it.
The T., G. & B. would give an alter-
native road about 25 miles shorter than
the St. Marys route; and the T., G. & B.
for 200 utiles of road, even with the
new issue of bonds, will:have a bonded
debt of $3,000,000, whereas the C. V.
has over that amount to Ingersoll and
Elora, and only,152 miles; consequently
must chatgemoro to pay its indebtedness.
By looking at the map it is easy to see
it has a very narrow country to draw
from along its whole route, and it is not
such a road as the T. G., & B. will be
when reconstructed. Its bridges over 20
feet span are to be either stone or iron,
with steel rails. 60 lbs to the yard,
whereas the wooden bridges on part of
the C. V. stood so long after they were
built before the company could complete
the road, that their life now must be
very short indeed. The hest route for
connection with the T. G. & B. would
he to have it at Wroxeter, rio Brussels or
Blyth, keeping south of the Maitland all
the way to Goderich, it might require
one mile or perhaps two inure to be
built, but the road would not be any
longer than by way of \\ ingltant; and it
would have this clear gain that it would
avoid the immense valley of the Mait-
land, near Goderich, the enormous ex -
bridge during the winter season would
peruse of bridging which would swallow
assuredly have occasioned. up all the bonuses it would be possible
to obtain along the route, and over and

astray in speaking of thqq, connection
with the C. P. R. as likelyll to be monde
at Ingersoll, a distance of 97 miles from
Toronto. Woodstock is the proposed
junction, and it is distant but 87 mile.
from the Provincial capital. The dis-
tance of the proposed line by St Marys
and Woodstock to the Queen City will
not exceed 158 miles, as we stated last
week, so that in this respect "Progress'
is out nearly 20 miles in his estimate.
Our data regarding the proposed 3t.
Marys route is better than his, but his
figures and facts relating to the T., G. &
B. are in the twain reliable, and will re-
pay a close perusal.
The line submitted fur the consider-
ation of Goderich, to connect with the T.,
G. & B., would be a good route, were its
independence as • line thoroughly secur-
ed from G. T. R. influence. But al-
though "Progress" speaks in a decisive
manner on the subject, we know that
the policy of the G. T. R.. during the
past few years has been to draw in the
lesser lines as feeders to its trunk road.
The feeling is fast gaining ground that
at no distant day the railways of Canada
will be held in hand by two great com-
panies -the G. T. R. and the Syndicate
-and that the lesser lines will act mere-
ly as feeders to the great institutions,
and be under their control.
It is for this reason that we have tak_
en exception to the T., G. & B. hitherto,
not because we did not believe it would
be advantageous to Goderich to secure a
railway connection with the North-east-
ern section of the county. If the T., G.
& B. is in a position as independent as
that claimedfor it by "Progress," there is
a probability that Goderich influence
will be used to aid it westward.
At present, the intention of the coun-
ty town is to push the southern project
to.a successful termination, and when
that is in a fair way of accumplislnnent,
any other route will receive attention
and aid from the people of Goderich.
THE HURON JUDGESHIP.
The Star, of last week, drew attention
to the misbehavior of the seniorJudge of
Huron, for some time past, and would
have its readers believe that he is only
retained in office because of the favoring
action of the Mowat Govennuent. The
writer of the article is evidently in dense
ignorance of the fists of the case, or
grossly misrepresents thein, when he
makes such a statement.
As far back as the days of the union
between Upper and Lower Canada 29-30
Vic. cap. 38, decided that the Governor-
General should refer cases of impeach-
ment of judges for misbehavior or inca-
pacity to a tribunal consisting of the
Chancellor, the Chief Justice of the
Queen's Bench and the Chief Justice of
Common Pleas. who, after a full hear-
ing, should make recommendation for
the disposal of the case. This statute
was subsequently repealed by Hon.
John Sandfield Macdonald, and 32 Vic.
cap. 26, substituted, bearing en the case.
The later enactment was held to be un-
constitutional, and the folluwing year 33
Vic., cap. 12, sec. 1, was passed, which
gave to the Lieut. -Governor, the power
of dismissal for Misbehavior, inability or
incapacity. When the statute was
passed in 1g(',f9, a Conservative Admin-
istration ruled at Ottawa, and although
the Federal Government had the power
of veto, they neither exercised it at the
time, nor took exception to the working
of the statute f. r over eleven years. un-
til they thought they alight embarrass
the Attorney -General of Ontario, by re-
sorting to frustrative treasures. The
right accorded the Lieut. -Governor in
the last-mentioned statute was not ques-
tioned until a lot- two years aa., when
Judge McDonald, of Guelph, .who had
unfortunately become imbecile, was dis-
missed by the Lae: Government. The
Dominion Government then took excep-
tion to the action of the Local Govern-
ment, and costel.4'e1 that they had no
right to interfere in the matter, as the
statute wr.s :'r.- '-?•• The. Dominion

wanted. The idea of prosecuting the

A slight erratum occurred in our last
communication in which "stupidity" was
assigned as the cause of the irregular at-
tendance so prevalent in our county
schools instead of "cupidity," financially
applied. We cannot, however• attribute
either of these as the prevailing cause in
all cases; the frail constitutions of some
of the little folks, and the inconvenient
distances must also be taken into con-
sideration.
Halloween was celebrated as usual by
the mischievous youngsters but not to
so great an extent as formerly. Gates and
farm implements were carried to seclud-

were committed. If parents would in-
culcate into their children a desire. for
literary pursuits, honest principles and a
moral sense of right•and wrong, this un-
profitable and silly custom would soon
diminish,and ultimately be utterly aban-
doned.

grauted said council sufficient land for
tho same, in compensation for which he
will receive the land formerly set apart

be congratulated on the success of his

suit of his legal rights.

Those Extra Seats.
Among the subjects that will probably.
be discussed by the Conservative con-
vegtion is that of the allotment of the
additional seats to which the increased
pspulation of 4 )ntario entitles her. As
the Conservatives are stronger in the
cities than in the country- the Rei
former being the farmers' friencle-thli
new seats will be slotted int to country
districts but to the cities. They will be
within sound of the hunt of industry and
within sight of those innumerable smoke
stacks produced by the N. P. Toronto
will have an additional representative,
and probably London another, and Ham-
ilton another, the scalp of each of which
the Chieftain will of course expect to
find dangling at his belt when the great
conflict is over.

Dir. ::arlow, formerly a hotel •
-
keeper in Galt, recently died at Grand •
Rapids, Mich., at the advanced age of
94. Deceased kept the old "Galt
Hoose" in Galt. up to about 1840, when
he left and established "Barlow tavern"
in Reckton, in the Township of Bever-
ly. At that time the whole travel be -1
tween Hamilton and the them "far west"
of the Huron tract was by way of what
for many years has been known as the

his capacity as hotel keeper on this great•

thoroughfare became one of the best
known men in the country. "1
Justice Oslerdelivered judgment in
the Cub Chanther'Forento case, 4a1 the
4th inst. The facts sh,.wn are that the
defendants keep a large boardiio house
and supply the hoarders with . beer,

The Toronto Police Magistrate hebl that
this was keeping li,luer for sale or bar-
ter. The conviction should be quashed
on the ground that this was not an
offence against the Act. The learned
judge remarked that had he not quashed
the conviction on this grotnol he wound
have referral it to the full court npsal
