A few weeks ago County Judge MAC Dut'dt•LL was called on to investigate certain specific charges against alder men, ax provided by • provincial statute. The mope of the enquiry war then enlarged until it now lam braces the whole field of recent muni cipal legislation without any specific charges being before the judge, who is really acting the part of an inqui sitio.er mei delving into private as well as public affairs sit he goes along.

Had this poor excuse for a change of front emanated from a big man of lofty character, like hie praletea:or in the leadership, it would have startled the country, and men would have asked Ane smother if principle was henceforth to be abandonedth because for e mom est it was not finding favor in the eyes of the multitude . but as Mr. M is, what ito roust ever remain, • very common -place man, hie acro- batic performance baa only provoked the jeers sad. laughter of the Prov- ince.

The Tory leader is something after the mai,ner of the Western candidate for Congressional honors who. after dealing with every public question, declared that such and such were his principle's but if the electors did not approve of them be was quite willing to change them. Itut the Opposition is not without hope •vea with MANTRA, for there yet remains the prices of jams and jellies to bring under the notice of as outraged public, while the great and moving question of the supply of eggs and milk to the pro vincial institutions is ever ready to fire tae blood of the patriots and move the Tory hosts to deeds of dar ing. i.et us hope that Matisse will not get hypnotized on teem items anti leave his party of shreds and pate'.c without anything to talk about.

A 1'TER years of work on the part of n number of the members of the.•ounty council and the press of the countv,it has been decided to estaleliah a louse of Refuge in Huron. At the meeting of the council held last week it was concluded to at once prosecute •he work. and the eontrac•t was let for the erection of the building, ateconve.ient point in the county near l'lieton, the work to be completed during [SW/. The ...minty council as a body is to be congratulated upon the action which has been taken, and the iadi• vidual ui.ti.hers who worked for the success of the scheme also .deserve the thanks of the electors for the pluck and perseverance they exhibited in what has been an up -hill fight. Prom meat amongst those members have debt Reeve I'Bot'tordxeT, of Gaderich. and Deputy Reeve Hour, who, on every •ocassion, worked for the *stab liehment of an institution 'where rest and aid could be furnished the age', weak and infirm whom poverty trade public wands of. Now that the erection of the edifice has been decided upon, Ti. 81 .NAL would like to see the Hems ot•ened next Fall, and at the opening we know of no better preaiding'othcer for the occasion than Reeve Wittier t.i•r PeornrooT, of Goderich, who has preyed to be so efficient a chairman of the House of Refuge committee. Mr. Peot'npotyr is a member of th•Gounty Council of many years standing, and as he is ercvoatl to nems at the board is debating power and administrative ability it would bre a graceful tribute to his worth if the council of 1895 would place him in the Warden's chair. A better man for the position could not be choses, and worth and ability ought to he the beais upon which the Warden for 11195 should be select,'. _ WHAT we thought a rather innocent item in our local news last week, to the effect that there are sine ex pupil. of Cederich High *Imo' practising medicine in Detroit, evidently aroused the ire of The Star.
