The I•Iurop and Bruce Loan and In- vestment Company, with head offices at Goderich, has been absorved by the Standard Loan Company of Toronto. * * The recount in London which took place on Friday last, leaves the ma- jority of Hon. 0. T. Hyman, Liberal, as before, 23. In Brantford a recount gives Mr. Cockshutt, Conservative, an increase from 15 to 17. i::..y �.. Mr. A. E. Bradwin, Editor of the Blyth Standard, has announced him- self as a Candidate for the Huron County Council in Division No. 7. Mr. Bradwin would make an excellent county councillor and we hope to see him on top on Election day. * * Theodore Roosevelt is a winner in the race for .Presidency of United States by the largest plurality ever given, 1,500,000. Twelve states with 133 presidential electors went forPark- er while Roosevelt swept the whole storth and west, having 344 electoral votes, The great difference between the Liberal Convention to be held on the 23rd, and those held in former years is: -Former conventions were called to establish a principal or promote a reform; this one is to attempt to res- cue aparty that has been in power for 82 years and has received notice to .quit. ** This is the standing of the parties in the Ontario Legislature which is like- ly to be soon dissolved:—North York, Liberal, vacant, unseated;North Perth, Liberal, vacant, unseated; North Nor- folk, Liberal, vacant, unseated; Sault -Ste. Marie. Liberal, vacant, unseated; Port Arthur, Liherar, vacant, resigned; North Renfrew, Conservative, vacant, resigned; Dnfferin, Conservative, via cant. resigned; Conservative members, 45; Liberal members, 45; speaker, 1. * * A circular letter has been issued by the Executive Committee of the Lib' •eral Association of the Province of Ontario, calling for a convention of Ontario Liberals in Association Hall, Toronto, on November 23rd. ` The fol- lowing are eligible as members:—(1) Liberal Senators from the Province of Ontario. (2) Liberal members and ex-. members of the House of Commons, or candidates in the last Dominion election. (3) Liberal members and ex- members of the Legislative Assembly, or candidates at the last Provincial election, or Liberal candidates who are now in the field for election. (4) The President and all vice -Presidents, and the Secretary and Treasurer of every. riding association. (5) Twenty repre- sentatives from each riding in the Province of Ontario, to be nominated by the association for the riding or by its Executive. Goldwin Smith in the Weekly Sun says: "If the Prince Minister of On- tario and his colleagues care for the real interest of the Province, they might take the result of the polling for the Dominion as virtually decisive of the verdict of the Province, and act' accordingly. It is morally certain thattheir party cannot by fair means do better than it did last week, The Province ought not to be wantonly dragged through another contest such as it underwent not long ago and made to suffer a repetition of all the bitter- ness, corruption, and infamy which then prevailed. It is surmised that the Government hopes to succeed by en alliance with Prohibition. If the Prohibitionists lend themselves to such a compact they will be degrading a moral movement to the level of the lowest political intrigue." ** The official statemedt for West Hur- on is as follows: Holmes Lewis Goderich.. ............ .. 100 Goderich Tp 173 Ashfield 81 Colborne ........ 9 West Wawanosh 3 Clinton 51 ..

P, Whitney has issued the following circular letter in which he announces that a Provin- cial Conservative meeting will be held in Toronto on Nov. 24, the day after the Liberal convention:— "Driven to bay and alarmed at the righteous indignation of the people, ia: Government, Provin the c l hie which or several years held office by means of fraud and crane, is about to intike a last and desperate appeal to the con- stituencies. "In order that the large majority of the people—those who desire clean, honest and decent government—may have an opportunity to discuss the sit- uation, I have instrueted the officers of the Liberal -Con servat ve Association of the province to ask the members of the association and also representatives from the municipalities to meet at As- sociation Hall, in the city of Toronto, on Thursday, the 21th of November, at 2 o'clock p.m. "In addition I invite representative men in each constituency—no matter what their party affiliation may be, and who sympathize with our objects —to attend, also to help us by their ad- vice and encouragement. "In the presence of a great public peril, party designations and differenc- es are of secondary importance. "The first great necessity of the sit- uation is clean, honest and decent gov- ernment. "The policy of the Opposition in the Legislature is familiar to the people and has received their endorsement and ratification by a rnaiority of six or seventhousand votes. To this re- cord we point with pride. "Thequestion of increasing the means of obtaining' agricultural instruction by adding to the curriculum in the high schools and collegiate institutes, and providing parcels of lands for prac- tical work, and also the question of the encouragement of systems of sew- erage in towns and villages are among the questions advocated by us. "Legislations should be had tofacili- tate the acquirement by municipalities on proper and reasonable terms of all public utilities, and also to provide ma- chinery for the prompt settlement of disputes between capital and labor. "At the last session of the Legislature the Opposition proposed that the Tem- iskaming Railway, constructed and ownedby the Government, should he operated by the province for a term of years. This opportunity for a practi- cal test of Government operation of railways was voted down by the Gov- ernment. "The attitude of the Opposition on the question of the proper assessment of railway property was made clear by their efforts to pass the Pettypiece Bill as a basis for action—efforts which fail- ed when tbe'promotor of the bill aban- doned it anal joined the Government in killing it. "These are some of the questions in which the people are interested. -"lint T repeat thefirst great neces- sity of the situation .is clean, honest and decent Government. We are all familiar with the humiliating story of the inquiries which have been psrper- trated,and by means of which a minor- ity Premier has been enabled—and, alas, has also been willing to defypub- lic decency and flaunt before the peo- ple his enjoyment of a position which he notoriously holds by virtue of such ininnities. "ley what the Government has done in the past we may reasonably fore- cast what it may attempt to do in this its last effort toavoid public condem- nation. - "In face of public danger, and in or- der to afford an opportunity to avert it, I have called this meeting.

New York, Nov. 14.—The worst storm since the great blizzard of March 11, • 12 and 13, 1888, raged over the southern and eastern States yesterday and to -day. Early Sunday morning it began to rain. and soon afterwards this turned to snow, while the wind increased to hurricane proportions, varying from 43 to 76 miles an hour. Communication with the West was cnt off for many hours, and only re- established soon after 3 o'clock this morning. The wire service between Baltimore and Washington was still completely out of service at 5 o'clock this morning,' poles and wires having been carried down in many places by the great weight of wet snow and the intense force exerted by the furious gale. In some cases the Postal,in order to get urgent messages through to Chi- cago, cabled them to Ireland, whence they were cabled hack to Canso, Nova Scotia, and thence forwarded by Mont- real and Toronto over the Canadian Pacific wires. Owing to the width of the storm's path much delay to railway traffic is anticipated, as the telegraph largely controls the movements of trains. Washington reports several inches of sante; w,Scra Scranton, PL more than a foot; Saratoga, a heavy snowfall; and Baltimore quite a lot of snow. Canada escaped thestorm altogether.

His father, five brothers and three sisters survive Cromarty DEATH.—Another of our old and re- spected residents, in the person of Mrs. J. Hoggarth, Sr., departed this life very suddenly on Monday evening, the cause of death being heart trouble. She had been ailing for some but recently had seemed much better. She with her husband came to this town- ship when it was little better than a wilderness, and the deceased did her share toward assisting and encourag- ing her husband in the pioneer days, and by industry and good management they succeeded in accumulating much of this world's goods. She was a wo- man of a naturally kind and gentle disposition and much loved and re- spected by all who knew her. She lived a true christian life and was a faithful mernher of the Presbyterian church. Her life and death will long be remembered by the many friends who attended the funeral on Wednes- day. She leaves a large family and. we extend to them our sincere sympa- thy and pray God will bless and com- fort them at this time in their hour of great trouble. One by one these time- honored pioneers are going and we grieve to have them leave us. Ailsa Craig The death of Mrs. Julia Poole, relict of the late.

The cere- mony was performed by the brides' brother, Rev. Alex. Reid, of Norwood, Ont. The brides were most handsome- ly and becomingly attired and as they took their places beside the grooms looked very bewitching. For several days preparations were being made to satisfy the inner man and as the com- pany emerged to the dining room an artistically arranged table, filled with delicious things, met their gaze, and it was here every person did justice to the good things set forth, and we might say here that too rnueb praise cannot be bestowed on those who pro- vided the repast. The young ladies are ver popular )alar as was its a laced• it the magnificent array. of wedding gifts which they received.
