of business, there is every reason to
believe that in the intervening four
weeks the bye -elections an con0tituen-

With such a contingsttcy in view no

We understand Mr. Csuxitor will

There is another reason why no

The alleged editor of The Star is
very anxious to know why THE Set. -
NAL did not (alae the whole box and
dice a the old directors of the West
Huron Agriculture[ Society to he
ejected from office Wednesday last.
If the editor (i) was gifted with a
modicum of common sense he would
not ask such a queution, but since
he is so anxious for information on the
subject THE SIGNAL will not withhold
it.
This is the reason Some of our
friends came to u; and said that it
would be the easiest thing in the
world to issue a writ of ejectment
upon the directorate of 1591, but the
placing of a new directorate would
rause the present incompetent secre-
tary to be disniimed, and as the salary
which lie obtains from the agricultural
society, and the horse society salary,
and a few other such perquisites aro
what keep him in town, the loas of one
or more of the offices might cause him
to leave, and somebody might come
hither and take charge of The Star
who knew something about running s
local paper, and might on that account
prove an opposition to THE SIGNAL--
sotnething which doesn't now exist.
Tun Sweat saw the cogency of the
argument, and at once decided to put
up with the poor opposition which we
have rather than stand chances d
getting a stronger one. Besides, we
had already done our duty by the
public in the premises.
That's the straight answer, although
we may not get much credit for it on
account of the element of purr selfish
now standing out sn strongly.
The election of Net many members
of the old directorate by acclamation
in no more an en donation of the fake
Show than was the re-election
work at the lest West Huron Fall
of the town (vent$ of 1591 :an en
dorseinent of the South Boundary
episode d last year.
The secretary of the West iluron
Agricultural Society knows this, and
so do hu employers, who won't thank
him for reviving the question of the
failure of the show.
The reason the editor of Tut Sale
est was willing to have the old direr
tors elected en bloc wee to giver them
a chance to redeem themselves (mei
the odium attaching to the fiasco of
Int year. If they failed the wooed
year, the question of incapacity would

failure win .ter utahIe to the incase

SIt:vL, One of the best of the provincial
weeklies, has joined the number of Cana-
than
amathan papers that require cash mu advance
from subscribers to their weekly editions.
Su far u we are •war., The Expositor
was the first to make this departure- hut
others are rapidly following suit. Th•
result of the experiment, too far as we are
concerned, has been of a most enoearagtng
character. Despite the fact that from time
to time the names of many delinquents have
been dropped, the circulation of the weekly
edition is about double the figura,
of two years ago, and we teal that we are
enabled to furnish • better newspaper and
sell .t • lower figure than would be possible
under the credit system. The cash system
is therefore riot only more busines-Iike but
mutually advantageous There is uo man
who is able to afford • newspaper but can
manage by a little forethought to provide
his dollar in advance, thus keeping himself
out of debt sad the publisher in good
humor.
We trust other provincial weeklies will
follow the example set by The Expositor
and THE SIGNAL, and will insist upon the
pre -payment of subscriptions The country
weekly, in its own field, is jest as much a
mm0Mili$y flake air/ weekly, sod come.
qus.tly a quite as goad position tie the
latter to do busiues oa business methods.
So far, at least, as The Expositor is cm-
cereed, the results achieved by pre.p•y-
meets have been such that we meld not
possibly be persuaded to return to the old,
uneatsfactory system.
A hence PPM Iles SALT.
A special from Washington to The
New York World says that Represen-
tative Whiting, of Michigan, to whom
the question of free salt was referred
by chairman Springer at the first
meeting of the wars and means com-
mittee, has drawn is report which will
no doubt be adopted without change.
Mr. Whiting claims that salt can be
made as cheaply and of as good qual-
ity in the United States as anywhere
in the world, and that the present
importations of salt are not due to its
low price, but to a prejudice against
Americas, salt acxbuired before Ameri-
can salt had reached its present
excellence.
Foreign salt is higher priced than
American salt, and there seems no
good reason why it should he increased
by a duty. While the present low
price of salt has caused the closing of
many extensive plants, yet the price is
sufficient to give a fair profit to pants
operated by practical salt -makers. if
the committee was conaidering simply
the wishes of the salt -makers and dis-
posed to provide a satisfactory profit,
not only to such as are at present
engaged in the enterprise, but to all
who might desire to embark:in a far-
ored industry covering an article that
neither man nor beast can do without,
they would rrommend the repeal of
the rebate cause increasing the duty
to the prohibitive point and form a
substantial heels for a au«earful trust.
The majority members of the com-
mittee, the report will say. though not
professing their ability by the some
law to make an article high to the
manufacturer or producer and cheap
to the consumer. and being unable to
claim that the indu*try of making salt
is an infant industry, or that the
whole alcor cost is equal to the freight
cools the ocean• feels constrained to
report the bill favorably, confidently
believing that it will result in a more
independent and healthful condition
of the American trade.
The Iowrnng of the price of foreign
salt by removing the duty, which
ave erages m er ft.3 !SO a ton at the port
of expert, will not necessarily lower
the pose of nine tenths of the An.eri
can product, which now *ells at less
than the export price of English salt.
As the salt industry is one in which
ocelerich is particularly interested, the
legislative aciaon d the i)emocratic
majority in the popular house at
Washington will his watched closely
from this section, for legislation from
Wshingtos in the direction noted
will do mere for our local 4.M teeth
tries that anything that cal be beam
