A Word In Season.
Discussing ways in which rneb bairn

Night says :
••1t is with his voice that a4 snail
moat often and most unwarrantably
encroaches tipxmr the rights of others.
Men often declare that they have the
right to say what they like, yet they
do not .top to consider that they
cannot possess the right to force other
men to listen to what they do not
like. if a Matt swears with force and
fluency he cannot, on giving thought
to the subject, imagine that he pos-
sesses the right to du no in the pres-
ence of any except those who approve
rhe are known to tolerate his vier. If
n man loin v funny but indecent story
to relate. he can have no right to
% nice it within hearing of any except
those whom he knows to be ',ermine
who will desire to hear it. The voice
has been bullying the herring since
the world began. The talker is for-
ever encroaching on the tights of the
silent pet. ',i who cannot tail to over-
hear% Os' the streets, in railway

stories that tickled Abraham Lincoln,

should break up at once, for there are
nearly always some present who will
respond with 'stories possessing not
half enough wit t, atone for their
grossness. Men unprotestingly put
up with a groat deal of thin kind of
thing. Nine men out of ton consider
it a nuisance that should be abated,
but eight of the nine give no sign of

CAPTAIN BLAMED
For Wreck of Lurltne---Certt6cate Sus-
pended for Si: Months.
Toronto, Dec. 23.- :rhe Uuvernuieut
cruiser !airline was wrecked In Uod.-
rich harbor some months ago because
of the rareleeeuess of Captain .1. B.
Foert, aid his certificate hits been
cancelled for sit mouths.
This is the verdict d'Alene(' to the
Department of Public Work, today
by liounrander U. V. Slain, of
Ottawa, who held 'so iuvestigatiun a
few weeks ago. He was aasirtxl by
Captain W. A. Wiggins and Captain
t'ra'gic,
In the evidence Captain Forest ad -
milted that he had entered the harbor
on the battle comma he had used fifteen
or twegty years ago. This the court
held was carelessness, in view of the
tact that up-to-date information was
readily available. The llomiuton
Government is not held responsible
fur the sunken cribwork upon which
the Lurliue ran, but, the court recom-
mends that the old ranges should be
immediately discontinued.
The !Airline. it will ax• remembered.
was staking its first trio fur the On-
tario Government after trip

purchased from the Hiram 1kalker
estate for CO,INII. It was a total
wreck.
Provincial Good Roads Fund•
'4wfuru, bita,aitor.
The county council at its recent ses-
sion took the initiative action on a
question of very considerable im-
portanceto the people of this county.
This. question affects the pocket and
thatis,irually at very vital spot with
its all.\Ve refer to the motion
adopted appointing a delegation com-
posed of the county warden, the
county treasurer and the county rep-
resentatives in the Legislature to
iuterview the Onutrt.e-- - iovernutent
with the view of making such arrange-
ments as will permit the county of
Huron to participate in the Provincial
good roads fond, especially to the ex-
tent of receiving aid from that fund
aur the construction of permanent
bridges Iter the jurisdiction of the
county.
As our traders already know, the
Provincial lergie lattre has set apart a
fund of one million dollars for the sn•
coiltageirent of the construction of
meal roads in the Province. The eon•
ditions of the law making this appro-
priation are that the Government will
give ()tie dollar for every two dollar,
spent by any county in staking per-
manent roadways, these toads to be
under the supervision of the counties,
and u, be approved of by the Govern-
ment. The comity 'most pais a bylaw
setting aside a eel tail anemia for this
{purpose and designating the roads to
be improved. The county must also
snake the improvements, and assume
control of the improved roads for at
Ieast three years. The appropriation
may further be used for the purpose
of purchasing toll roads. These con-
ditions tuay he All right for counties
who, up to the present time, have
been using toll roads or who have'
Bern used to travel on mud roads.
But they do nut suit counties like
Muton, that have been more enter-
prising. Forty yearn or wore ago the
county of Huron borrowed a large
suer of money, and with it con-
structed a nyat•tu of gravel roads
intersecting every portion of the
eouuty. For many years these reals
were Idled and maintained by the
county. Several years ago the tolls
on the county roads were abolished,
and toll roads that did not belong to
the county were purchased by the
county. and all the roads were made
free. At the sauce time, all these
roads that were built and bought by
the county were handed over n the
municipalities to be maintained, and
have since leen. and ate still being
maintained by them. This arrange-
ment ham proven eminently satisfac-
tory to all parties and the enenty is
averse Lo going lack to the old sys-
tem of comity roads, even to the ex-
tent of enabling it t, participate in
the gond toads f(itld. Now, the fact
that this county has built its own
toads with its own pey should not
surely preclude it -from participating
in the Provincial fund. Calder the
law as it now (stands, the county of
Hurn will be punished or penalized
for that cnterptiwe of former years.
Having built it.a own roads at its own
exnenste, and a portion of the. debt
incurred tor that porp oee is still
unpaid. it is now herng forced
to armlet less enterprising g
sin counties to
construct their loathe, ea we are
all forced to fay our proportion
of the i'rovincial trillion dollar
fund. This ie neither just nor fair.
If the Condit' wars fully and fail•ly
placed 1le•fore the Government, we are
mute that they will see the force of
Huron's r,ntention and devise or
agree to a remedy. What Huron now
desires and what the d.•putation
above referred to will endeavor to
secure, if possible, is the consent of
the G, rernnre't t, smlestitute perma-
nent bridges instead of permanent
mauls. The letter 'are, surely. as
gential to the public inteteate as the
former. Huron has been spending tn
an average 11:01,0011 a vear f.,r several
years in the conerructior• of perma-
nent bridges. The burden hon been a
heavy one for the people to hear, but
there was no avoiding it. The
Midge's vete required and they had to
be built. As shown by the abatement
of the engineer there will still have to
he built, within the next two or three
years fit the outiide, bridges that will
.tv,at in the/ neighb orh 1 of COMM.'Thin will impose an ormohS addi•
tional tax en the people. 11 the Gov•
eminent will treat this county as an
exception and permit it to participate
in the good made appropriation for
the conet•uetion of these bridges, or
,.,rend the !serpent law to Ihnt, effect.,
the work team he Parried 'out. Huron.
and [perhaps oilier counties as well,
will be placed in their jsi.t position
and the burden will be very materially
li htened._
