There was iio oharge of bluntness or thick -headedness, We went to work and talked this thug over in a friendly wey. There was not adiscordant note. They said, "Look k here, if it had been a ma of no etand- ing who had written that article we would }lot have tauten much noticeof it, but people will believe what you say, and take inferences trom it that you never meant." I said that might he so and asked, "Did you use your in- fluence with the council against. me P". They said they did not advise the coun- cil one 'way or the other. We talked at over in itfriendly way for nearly an hour, ,And iJh. Dickson explained to me the amount of work and time they had speut in making out the accounts and I believe that their charge was not excessive, and said that they should not suffer loss through me. And I may.say that ifthe council had manifested the same spirit, said article. would never have appeared. • Thanking you, Mr. Editor, for your kindness, ' R.

Lt. -Col. Munroe was elected over Mr. Butler, the Conservative candidate, by a, majority of 977. Although this is a :large majority it is considerably lower than that of the former, represent- aatives in the riding. me: The anti -vaccination league asks the 'Ross Government to make vaccination toptianal. In Galt, the president, Mr. K. Roy,_ says, where there bad been :an epidemic two years ago, 1,200 out ;of 1,400 voters had signed a petition. -.against vaccination. The association preferred to take the risk of small -pox 'which was a healthy disease, rather 'than be vaccinated with the germs of :.e, filthy disease. "Healthy disease" is :scene expression, applied to small -pox which cleanses and renews the system. it is the least fatal of all contagious :diseases. A • NEW COIN, The new florin which shortly is to be s"isstted by the British mint will be dif- ferent from those already in circula- tion. It will bear the imprint of the . ?King's head on the obverse side, but on !Kate reverse side an upright figure of 33rttannia is to be substituted for the eenlbiematic device which previously • .decorated the. coin. There is one very :interesting fact about this Britannia. The lady who stooct for the model of the figure is Miss Susan Hicks -Beach, .daughter of the Chancellor of the Ex - :chequer. Miss Susan is represented as standing npright, instead of in the :.position usually associated with Brit- ish ceinage designs. The original de- -sign, which of course is much larger _'thane the size of the actual coin, is new a cherished possession of Sir '4iicilaet and kis family. * 'uetnrdayNight sums up Mr. Hay's letter. to the press in the following ;aart.baent and scathing gem: -Good, •toreest, general kicking has just re- • saved a nice boquet from Mr.'Hays, -ae anger of the Grand Trunk Rail- way.. Such persistent and consistent _atn-ket over apublic grievance as the ;pecaele and the newspapers of Outario .Lre,Ztrtting up against the rotten ser- as*icy. dished up by •Mr. Hays' road has ..net been heard hs the Iand since the eoice•ef the turtle froze up.

The public, however, can.have .• UI& interest in knowing how much the Trunk has spent in improv- . ing its road. That is a matter that will interest the shareholders of the the roa.d. The thing that the people of Western Ontario are worrying over is the amount that hasn't been spent. Running railroads is no doubt an ex- • ssensive business, hut the Grand Trunk oseopie should have known that before they went into it. Squealing about -:;he cost will not shame worn-out en- -gimes into putting a spurt on and .otafching np"to the timetable. It is a • larger expenditure that is needed.
