Later it is the intention, we understand, to branch out to Strat- ton! and London, na well as to extend north and south to Owen Round and Sarnia, respectively. It is understood Khoo that the development of power on the Maitland river, which is allied with the electric railway proje-t, iv to be proceeded with this nurnn.er, 7 he news of the commencement of construction work on the line between Goderich and Kincardine will be re- ceived with gratification by the people of all the interested wunieipalittet, as it marks a big ate;. forward in the progress of this rection and means ins creased prosperity and better tinsel for the whole territory along the route.

The loss the con- gregation has sustained is A very se- vere one, but it is nothing to that sus- talned by his widow and children and to them we extend our attest heartfelt sympathy." THE TWO PROVINCIAL LEADERS. At the close of the first session dur- ing which tl*'y have been squarely and continuously pitted against each other this ie now the first opportunity to make a eomparison between Mr. Whitney as Premier and Mr. MacKay as leader of the Opposition. The corfl- parieon is inevitable, acid it is in4trne- live. -Under -our Parliamentary sv.: tern the leader in Parllanient is also the [(eider in the Province as 4 whole, end pletform style cents, though it e. much more evanescent than Parlia- uentary aptitude. 8e far as it goes, however, Mr. MacKay has a decided advantage in his public appearance., Hr hiw a better voice, *more rapidly acting mind, and a more coherent style of speech. He is arguwantxtive rather than denunciatory, while Mr. Whitney is just the reverse. He pre- pares carefully and never talks at random, while Mr. Whitney is no- toriously reckless, often apparently because he has nothing to say that will fit the nct'a,.ion. In Pitch/meet Mr. Whitney no often undignified in his declaration, and lig never cogent. He gives the impression that his hold on the public beelines which peewee through the I.egi.IAtive Awe -tidily it, an extremely slight one. Ile giver, no doubt, ea gond deal of attention to matters of a strictly party character, but in these the general public take comparatively little interest, whir• they take it great deal in some of the lager problems of the d*yy. It Is a defect in Mr. Whitney, wl.ech may easily become a fatality, that, he is an intense partisan in most of the mat- ters with which he hes officially to deal. Mr. MacKay, on the other hand, is a persistent. rapid worker. Hie ability is exceptional, 'him knowl- edge of the law in woefully extensive and his aptness in comprehending and ntilizinpr snggestione from all glint -tete 101(4 11 1(11 phenomenal. The leader of the Opposition in proudly a Liberal, but he haw a decided adventage neer the Pretnier in hie use of 1'arHarmer tary rourtesy, and his practice of self- control. The native ability of Mr. Mackay is apparently easily firms in the Legislative A*sen. sly. There is In IC'nn better lawyer. and he has not Lie P(uai in the r,-adirent which he die- pleye in focusing his legal Learing and aptitude on the point he 1•.npx•ne to he dealing with. He is a rapid draftsman when a resolution is tot. framed. or n Metal:ry enactment to ixe put into shape. Ills memory is ex- reptionelly good, m(i that he i* able to check other* for fnareurari(se, and to strongly entrench himoelf in his own p.slitiuns. By such personas gnalifica.
