SOUTH HURON VACANCY.
It is expected that the Dominion
Government will issue the writ for the
bye -election in South Huron at an
early date. The election is made nec-
essary because of the death of the hate
8.0.0tint. Conservative. The Liberals
some months ago chose M. Y. McLean
as their standard-bearer. Mr. Gunn
would undoubtedly have been his op-
ponent. Now it becomes necessary
for the Conservatives to choose a can-
didate, unless it is agreed to let the
riding go unrepresented until the gen-
eral election. The Exeter Times says :
"The suggestion has been made by
not a few that the Conservatives would
do well not to oppose Mr. McLean in a
bye -election." By what kind of yeas•
oning or on what authority the state -
inept is made we do not know, unless
it emanated from one or other of the
members of the Liberal joint stock
company. that now controls The
Times. 1Vby should the Conserva-
tives on the death of their member
allow a Reform candidate to be elected
by acclamation ? Would it not be a
little more reasonable for the Liberals
t
'to t
to allow a Conservative e elected
by '►ccla !nation to succeed a Conserva-
tive? Because the Liberal was chosen
drat. the Times reasonsthat he should
be elected by acclamation to avoid an
election. That reasoning would un-
doubtedly satisfy them, but wonld
hardly be acceptable to the general
public.
NOTIs' AND COMMENTS
The Liberals were electe•c! in Ottawa
and Centre Volk on Monday for the
House of Commons—the former by a
largely increased majority. the latter
by .t decreased majority—from 124 to
l0.
Osesip is beginning to got busy with
the names of several who are possible
candidates for the municipal council
of Exeter for ties next year. It is
pretty certain that Reeve holier and
the present councillors will be in the
field again, although they have not
definitely said so. \Vnr. Bawden and
W. 1i. (,vett, it is said, would not
object to taking the reeve's choir.
New aspirants to the seats of thec,,un•
clllors are scarce, although a few good
names have been casually mentioned.
It looks like a re-election by evident-
ation in 1'sborne Township this year.
After many enquiries we learn of no
new aspirants, nor do we herr of
others desiring friends to run.

ions formed the program, all the
children doing credit to themselves,
and some parts of the program being
exceptionally fine. The trustee's and
others made speeches expressing re-
gret in some respects at the division
of the section, but a good feeling was
displayed and all hoped that as neigh -
hors and friends they would continue
to live in peace and on good terms
with one another. The most interest-
ing incident in the proceedings was
the {presentation of a beautiful silver
pickle stand to Miss Sparks, the junior
teacher, and a letter portfolio to Miss
Bottrill, the senior teacher. These
presents were the gifts of the children
frons their respective rooms. In con-
sequence of the division of the section
only one teacher will be required in
the future, and Miss Brittrill has been
re-engaged. Both teachers have given
good satisfaction, and many gond
wishes were expressed foe MissSpai•ks'
