THE MILITIA HUMBUG.
1I this Ilav of peace anti Rood will,
when on this oeswitent swords may safely
be tunnel Into plowshares, ie it not time
to eek our.elvee why we should continue to
keep op • militia establishment for the .ole
psrpose of enabling a few romantic creat urea
N play the officers, which in our judgment
is little more than an ordinary 'Onus oc-
cupietios se tar as public use or benefit is
concerned.
In eo.sidering this militia question we
will be met with some objection' to the
abolition or reduction of the service. F'i'st,
that we cannot afford to leave this 'Fair
Dominion" defenceless against the forgive
foe. and, secondly, that we cannot safely
leave the preservatioc of the public peace
to the civil power.
With regard 1e the "ruthless invader'
feature, common sense tells us we have but
two neighbor' who by any possibility could
give us trouble, namely, the American.,
obese military strength along our border
would be more than a match for the com.
biped available European armies on this
oestioewt, and therefore at is folly tc 'on-
side' this side of aha picture, partieal•rly
as the mimicn of the Republic is peace and
not war ; the other foe consists of the
Eskimo tribes ie the far North and North
east mod surely no one gpe°de their nights
awake feariar the incoming of the Arctic
"Men of War." Then, the preservation of
domestic pas sod the m•intesanoe of law
and seder sorely can be left with perfect
gaiety to the good sense of the people who
rummies that protection for hie and pro.
petty is egaeatial to the maintenance of
civilisation, and surely if ever • oommu.tty
existed that needs no miliary force for any
purpose whatever, it is the Dominion of
(ss•da,for in so part of our country eon
it be said that "law secures not life."

MORE ROOM
We have leased the premises
one door West lately occupied by
Geo. A. Fear, druggist, which we
will utilize as a show -room for
Ladies' Mantles, Capes, Shawls,
Wraps and Furs, making of it an
exclusive Ladies' Department.
Our stock of Mantles has this
year been bought directly from the
Manufacturers in England, Ger-
many, and France. Having car-
ried over only four Garments from
last Season, we can show the
largest variety of LATEST IDEAS
ever shown in Goderich, and at
prices that no other Concern in the
ud can logitimately undersell.
We expect to be open for in-
spection about the 2Oth. If you
contemplate investing in a Gar-
ment this Season bear this in
mind.
