THE R-4JLWAYQUEST.'.N.
In anerthe, column will be found an
inlereeting letter on the railway q ues-
tion from our correspondent ''Alpha." of
tit. Marys. The facts there alludes to
nre patent •,te all, and need only be
thought upon to ahem .he necessity for
work. Work must be dune at once, and
no time shculd bo loot in initiating it.
It is all very well 'for lethergi.; persona
to say, "Wait, and the read will come ;"
if we wait our patience will hare failure
for its portion.
There is One thing we wu.ttd suggest
again, and that is that a town railway
committee be appointed, and upon thin
committee shoald be placed men who
understand the railway .iueation, and
who will not be averse to putting their
hands in their pockets, if necosaary, to
farther the advancement of a new rail-
way scheme. On the present railway coin -
mittee there are one or two gentlemen sof
this class, but a number of the members
don't pretend to know anything about
the railway question, others an opposed
to a railway scheme, tied others would
not pay a street car fare to attend a
meeting outside of the corporation lim-
its, if the fate of a new railroad depend-
ed so Weir attendance.
That is not the kind cf s committee to
hold up the railroad interests of a town,
and the sooner it is purged a1 its useless
members the better will it be for Gode-
rich,
The Credit Valley Railroad and the
Toronto, Grey et Bruce, RR, in the
hands of the C. P. R. Syndicate, will
each want a lake terminus before 1883
Mous. Goderich stands a good chance
for being the terminus of one or other
f these linea. if not of both. The Syn-
dicate line of etea nervi will be afloat
next year under the management of Mr.
Henry Beaty, and it remains to be seen
if Goderich, by the activity of its rail-
way committee, will be in a position to
offer also a heavy bid f ,r the privilece
of being the Ontario port for the Syndi-
cate line of steamers.
Tat Star is making a fool of itself -en-
deavoring to keep the testimony of Mr.
Addison at the magistrates' court before
the people. Mr. Addison will not thank
it for its special references to him during
the put too weeks. With Mr. Addison
we have no quarrel, but we were a little
surprised that his memory failed him at
the investigation of the Sturdy cue be-
fore the magistrates. The Star man and
hundreds of others who know and es-
teem Mr. Addison were as much sur-
prised as we at his failure of memory on
that occasion. That there was reason
for surprise at the testimony adduced at
the -preliminary trial, was evident by
the free, funic and trust-vorthy testi-
mony which Mr. Addison gave at the
Aeeise Court. He gave no uncertain
anund ea that occasion, and we thank
Mr. Addison heartily for the rammer in
which he gave his teatiireny when the
teals trial wee held The stupidity .1
the Afar in blundering on about the ac-
tion of Tes fleet AL in the Addison met-
er even exceeds its usual stupidity. The
Rear editor was present at both extrain-

mony •t each examination in petalled

TRAT " ON-PAlTly'd11 " AGAIN.
The week slum we had occasion
to expose th • ul the preten-
sion .,1 the toe of the attar to be a
nun -partizan. We showed conclusivelyt
that them was no party work, however
S5PWhle, that he would not willingly
undertake, end we proved our case by
giving a bsisl a000uut .•f seine of his
political actiess We did not allude to
his personal character ; we dwelt with
!aim as a partisan politician. Impaled
and held up to the public view ie his
j true parolees character, the editor of the
Moo endeavors to squirm frcIa hie un-
enviable -position. In nearly a column
and a hatf les endeavors to set himself
right, ad'iu SO doing admits every
point upon' which THIS SIGNAL based
against hire the charge of partizanship.
The Star admits that its truly "non-
partime"editor ss Secretary ot the Gede-
rich Conservative Association, and peti-
tioner against Mr. Cameron in West
Huron, awd that he went bail for con-
victed Tory perjurer. The £tear also
admits that its editor acted in the ry wdy
fashion, previously described, at the
Blake reception. le fact, it admits every
point made against its editor.
But tete .Ater is not content with mak-
ing admissions of indubitable facts
bruught to the door of its chief, but it
must needs wax wrathy and call Tun
Sl,;NAL peroprietors. names. Now names
are notargumenta, and when any jour-
nal descends to such a style t,f warfare
it proves that the cause it advocates is a
poor one Certainly if our friend of the
,lt,r calls us Dan or Tom, as a clincher
to his reply, we du not feel that our
points are one whit less telling. Now,
we would not think it a very powerful
argument to call the editor of the Star
-"Jia:,'' akhaugh "Jinn" is a name that
hu teen immortalized in prose and
verse. We have heard of the collier's
boy '.Jiro," and-"Daudy Jan,' the well-
krown Carolina make ; and Bret Harte's
"darned, ornery, long-legged, Jim," and
"Jim crow," the redoutable wiggler and
twister (poLticelly and .otherwise;; ands
host of other "Jima," too numerous 'to
mention. "Jim" is, if anything, a more
common name that Dan or Tom, but we

The pe werful 1) article in 'last week's
Star must have been contracted when
the writs was troubled with a bad at-
tack of "bile.
Tax Sarnia (*server utters cur own
thoughts on the liquor rinsation when it
says:—"The Licenced Victua:lers have
sent a deputation to Sir JohnMacdunald
to remind him a his promise to revoke
the Ontario License Act, and replace it
with one that will make"the hearts of the
liquor mannfactutes and dealers rejoice.
they ask him, among other things, to
alter the law so that hotels and saloons
may be kept open until lI o'clock on
Saturday nights, instead of being forced
to close at 7 p. rn., an at present. It will
be interesting to note how Sir John will
undertake to fulfil his promise. The
moral sense of the people of this province
is unanimously in favor of the law as it
stands. Will Sir John dare to fly in the
fare of public sentiment, here by under-
taking to override the provincial law and
substituting fur it a Dominion Act that
will throw the doors open to a revival of
the old schemes of Saturday night de-
bauchery, and police cells filled on Sun-
day with victims whose week's earninp
had been exchanged for intoxicants, in-
stead of being devoted to the support of
their families?
Ws caught the Star in s falsehood in
regard to our action in tweeting the
Crown counsel at the recent trial and
conviction •.f Sturdy We denied that
we discussed the Sturdy case with Mr.
Hodgins. directly or indirectly, and the
Star "acknowledges the corn," but says
we handed the Crown waned a certain
document, and thea gave aesia'ance.
Well, we did hated Mr. Hodgins a docu•
ment, which a gentleman patted to us,
and asked us to hand to lar. Hodgins.
We would have acted churlishly had we
done otherwise. and we will say further,
that had we known the document would
have proved the means of securing the
conviction of a law -breaker. we would
have felt proud et having • hand in the

Oars Thomas Holloway, the English
medicine millionaire is every once in a
while smitten by a streak of philan-
thropy, and gives away his thousands
with a lavish hand. One of these days
he may be actuated With, paying rates

euphonious phrase, "Mowat start gu :•'
Nevertheless, Mr. Camerae and his
friendx, as wall as Mowat and his Gov-
ernment, still "live, avid mauve, and have
their being."
IN the death of Father Stafford, of
Lindsay, the people of Ontario have lost
a wise counsellor and a tree friend His
light was a bright one, and it show for
all. Active and fearless in matters re-
ligions, social sad educational, he ever
commanded the respect and esteem of
oplxonents His friends reveal him.
He is gathered unto his rest, but his
works live atter him.
Tux Star thinks the prosecution in the
case against Dr. Tennant for perjury and
unlawful voting, nay yet have a chance
of proving that the action against the
redoubtable doctor was justifiable. The
Sgto needn't bother its head prophesy-
ing. Tennant will gladly let the matter
rest for fear the true inwardness of the
sub -lease of the pasturage to Mr. A.
McGr.,ry will come to light.
A Mn BoY LS, of Massachusetts,
sante a divorce from Mrs. Boyle for the
reason that Mrs. Boyle has gone into the
decorating business and tatood herself
alclost from head t<. heela. Mr. Boyle
doesn't want Mrs. Boyle fur an art gal-
lery, and is averse to embracing scor-
pions. bald eagles, caterpilhera, alligators
and "each." This should pane a terri-
ble warning to ladies with a tendency to
decorative art.
IN THE Supreme Court chambers at
Ottawa, on Saturday morning, Justice
Henry refused an application' made on
behalf of the petitioners in the West
Huron and North York election cases to
have the appeals from Judge Cameron's
decisi.:n hoard at this term of the court.
The appeals cannot therefore be tried
until the February term, and no pro-
ceedings can affect the right of the mem-
bers returned to hold their seats during
the next session. The Tories in this
section are getting discouraged, and
their chorus, "Cameron must go," is
growing fainter and more faint as each
day passes by.
LAST week, in showing up the parti-
zanship of the Star editor, we contrast-
ed his rowdy action at the Blake meet-
ing on the band stand in the Court
House Square, with our deportment at
the Langevin meeting at the aarne place
nearly a year before. The comparison
is a fair one, and puts the "non -partizan"
1 Star editor in the same list with the
the other Tory "limbs" who endeav-
orad to disturb the meeting. In reply-
ing to our statement the Star editor
says, referring to oar bearing at the
Lange%in meeting, that we "exercised
the ordinary common sense that on such
an occasion, and u:eder such circum-
stances, would have been shown by any
one in the slightest degree removed
from idiocy." We did, did wet Thabk
you, Mr. Stair: Now, why did you not
at the Blake meeting, if we may be per-
mitted to use your own choice language,
"exercise the ordinary common sense
that on such an occasion and ander such
circumstances, would have been shown
by any one in the slightest degree re-
moved from idiocy 1"
Tux attempt of Sir John Macdonald
to cater to the licensed victuallers on the
1 quor question is likely to prove unsatis-
factory to the temperance element of the
Conservative party. The following reso-
lution, passed at the recent meeting of
the Dominion Alliance, gives no uncer-
tain sound :—That the Toronto Branch
of the Dominion Alliance regard. the
action ot the licensed victuallers, in seek-
ing the influence of Sir John A. Mac-
donald, for the extension of the hours of
Saturday night liquor selling with great
concern and indignation; and hereby as-
sures the Dominion Government, that
any attempt to relax the present laws in
the direction of further opportunities for
the sale of liquor, will meet with the
strongest expressions of disapproval on
the part of the Christian acid temperance
people of the ooantry; and this meeting,
representing all temperance societies in
the City of Toronto, hereby pledgee it-
self to give the moat practical awl san-
est support to the Provincial Govern-
ment in their efforts to restrict the liquor
thane. in order that immediate action
may be taken in this direction, thisgsee-
tioei is now referred to our committee on

died ewddenly at noon to -day. He had
awe *thug for solus days, but made light
el his iud.sp.•.itwn, sued it was nut until
itterelay that any danger was appre-
hended. The immediate come of death
was neuralgia of the heart. At an early
hour this morning tee symptoms became
atainning, and after *even.' hours of .►-
tense sufferuyt he passed away. Fathers
Keating, Cannell.* and Fleming were in
attendaicenest .4 the week. As soon
as the fatal symptoms were manifested a
spee,al trans was despatched for Bishup
Jauwt at Coburg and he reached Lind-
say at 3.30. Thai unexpected death of
Father Stafford was a great shock to hu
congregation as well as the community et
large, eud the expressions of sorrow rod
sympathy are penfound and general.
The scene in Ht. Mary's church was most
affectine. Rather Keating mid utas, and
every member of the large oungregatiuu
knew that their loved and revered pastor
was passing away. All fait that a great
calamity had befallen them, and unre-
servedly nisei/sated their poignant sur -
new. Ne clergyman .f the Roman Cath-
olic church in Caned* was better known
or more respected than Father Stafford.
he was a cultivated scholar and a devot-
ed pastor, bet d was chiefly as a social
reformer that les secured his honorable
pre-eminence. Wherever he 'yrs called
upon t o labor iu his clerical vocation he
threw himself, with alt the energy of a
strong nature, into the promotion of se-
cular education and the crusade against
intemperance. It u unnecessary to
speak hero of bis efforts in the latter
cause. During his pastorate in Lindsay
he has revolutionized the condition of
his one parishioners in this respect, and
has aided greatly in bringing about an
improvement in the condition of their
protesteut neighbor., by whop, he was
highly respected. But tan the general
public his educational work is of the
greatest interest. Under his direction,
and at his instance, the Roman Catholics
of Lindsay and vicinity have established
an excellent separate school and convent.
These institutions have not been conduct-
od, like toxo many' other separate schools
and convents, as mere appendages of the
church. It has always been Father Staf-
ford's policy to employ none but regular-
ly certified teachers and to use only the
regular public and high school teat books
In his opinion it was wrong to put
aortae Catholic children under any edu-
cational disability which would handicap
them in the struggle of life, and in this
respect he was far in • advance Oof the
great majority of his fellow clergioen
ane of the hierarchy. His latest appear-
ance before the public was in connec-
tion with the recent "Mannion" discuses-
iein, and his contributiona`to it were, as
might have been expected, models of
good taste and Christian toleration.
There aro unfortunately too few men of
his ata ap amongst the clergy of any of
our churches, and this will cause his loss
to be more widely felt and lawented. -

ordinances and means of grace. In
visiting her home, where she delighted
to manifest hospitality. Her conversa-
tion was always cheerful, indicating tho
peace reigning within the heart. At
the lest she passed away calmly, peace-
fully and full of blessed hope. The
mortal has therefore put on the immor-
tal, and she has heard the loving voice
of her Saviour coy ing "Come ye blessed
of my Father." Our sister had a large
circle of•frieuds, who mourn her loss;
but - while they nines her welcome on
earth, they rejoice in a more blessed
welcome to be received from her in
heaven. Her funeral which took place
nn Tuesday of last wee:, was attended
by a large concourse of sympathizing
fi iend., and her retrains were interred
in the Dungannon cemetery, near those
of a drat' sister, to await the general
resurrection. Her funeral services were
conducted by her beloved and faithful
pastor, Rev, J. Caswell, last Sunday
morning in the Nile church. God grant

50: 14: "(Mer unto God thanksgiving,
and pay thy vows unto the Most High."
He pointed out that man was indebted
to a hither power for every benefit. It
was God who gate the ,pother that
strange, untiring love for her babe, to
keep it and support it in its helpless
state. Some said that nature came and
went mieh year, and that was alt. But
who was nature's God 1 He referred
to the peaceful condition of Canada while
many nations had known war and suffer-
ing. The people in this immediate
neighborhood had many blessings to en-
joy. The crops had been bountiful, and
nn calamities had befallen them. He
desired for all a closer walk with God, a
thankful spirit, fuller victories over sin,
and a happy entrance into eternal rest.
