Saniese A L:reech, Prop3. Tilt; RS1).1 V, June Is 1008 • • • South Huron By -Election l E 0 ► • • • , ( ,.:, -..i. raWe g,rumbliug has been heard in South Iliiron that the Domin- ion Government has not paid the Deputy -Returning Ofllcere, the pFoll- ing-hoothe etc., for the McLean -Hor- ton By-election. Mr. Artusteong, M. P., asked in the Hone° of Cumulous on May 27th ult., the following ques- tions, which is reported in the Ilan- zard of that date on page 9518: - Mr. ARMSTRONG asked: I. What was the amount of the re- turning officer's account rendered to the government for the expenses in connection with the by-election held in South Huron un the 22nd d:tv of January IS5I 2. What is the date or dates when these accounts were paid to said offi- cer. 3. if there are still any unsettled accounts, what do they consist of? 11 Hon. W. S. FIELDING, ( muster of Finance), answered: ;, 1. Amount of returningjngj t1cers accounts, $1,052.31. 2. Payments to returning officer: February 26, 1908, $842.05; March 28, 1908, 8176.89.-$1,018.94. Amount dis- allowed on audit of accounts, $33.37. 3. There are no unsettled accounts. It is now up to the Returning Offi- cer to explain why these accounts have not been paid to the persons en- titled thereto. NOTE AND COMMENTS The majority against Nelson Mon- teith is 50. About 3000 volunteers are in camp at Godericb. It is said that Mr. Torrance of North Perth may give place to Hon. Nelson Monteith. Liberals and Conservatives are still wondering how it happened. But Hon. A. G. McKay says it was owing to an unholy alliance of liquor and temperance people. $:-.1.10153 *The Methodist conference in session at Toronto after considerable discus- sion passed a resolution critizing Earl Grey, the governor general, for at- tending the Toronto and Montreal races. Hon. Sydney Fisher's amendment to the Inspection and Sale Act has been passed at Ottawa. Mr. Fisher reduced the penalties for an infraction of the Fruit M,ttks Act. For the first offence the penalty is not to exceed k'J.,. for the second offence $50 and for a third offence 8200. Taking Ontario and Quebec together, and judging from the results of these provincial elections, Mr. Borden should have in the next parliament a major- ity of 25 or 30 in these two provinces. Following the defeat of the New Brunswick Liberal Government in a campaign managed on the Govern- ment side by Mr. Pugsley, these elect- ions prove that the days of the Laurier Administration are numbered. When the fight was over, Sir Wil• frid's colleagues gathered in with the unhappy news that Whitney's (7unscr- vative majority was increased from 12 to'6S, while the Liberal Government at Quebec had its majority reduced from 60 to 39. Mi. Graham "regrets to report" a majority of 500 against Sim at home in lirockville. Likewise both Brants have gone against Mr. Patterson, and the three York ridings against Mr. Aylesworth, and Sir Rich. ard's Cartwright's old home of Kings- ton has gone over to the Conserve• Weft. The Telegram sums up the crop sit- uation of the Dominion as teltows: Good crops in Ontario for 1908 mean an increase over 1107 of 55,0900,000 bushel, of grain, and 1.583,521 tons of hay. in money this means air in- crease of $41,000,000 for grain un 1 $211,- 000,00e for hay. in 11))6 (hitario's crop was worth $250,000,000. In 1007 Ontario farmers lost $80,0011,(100 on their crops. This year, if the crops are gond, Oot.arda's crop will wipe out IRO year's Toss and allow the farmers to pit something in the bank. Henke, other official institutions and the (lov• eminent, have the most promising re- ports from all over Ontario. and evet y- :hing is in line for it hamper harvest. Because of the abundance of feed the farmers ate already operating on the money they are staking from dairying. in 11)07, with an increase of 3&),1))) acres under cultivation, harvests were so poor in Ontario that t he net de- crease in bushels was :36,te:s, 470. If the harvestaverages as good as in 1906 on the present ttcteatre tilled, the increase over 1107 will t,e 5i,000,000 hnshels. And if the crop, are as val- uable only as the crops of 1906, at least they will he worth $250,tsW),000. "-- The Song of the Hair aagienmensomeeminummar [here are four verses.

True there are graves that are kept in order and plots which are trimmed and made neat, but generally speaking are they not a perfect disgrace and a reproach to the living? Is it not a shame and discredit to those who have friends and relatives buried, that they allow the graves to be so over run with weeds, stones and rubbish, that in some instances the graves are almost completely hidden? Is it not about time that such a state of thingsshould exist no longer, but that they do for their dead what I am sure they would like others to do for them if they were dead? Nothing I think could exceed the beauty of the Exeter cemetery, but what about the one at Clandeboye? 1 think it is named St. James, and the one on the Mitchell road near Han - nock, and the old Methodist cemetery at Kirkton, and others I could men- tion if time and space permitted. Let some steps be taken now before the busy time commences to have these sacred enclosures, where so many lov- ed ones are laid, where so many tears have been shed, and where such truly mournful scenes have been witnessed, renovated and adorned, and do not let theme any more be such a crying disgrace to the living, a reproach to Christianity, and a discredit to the neighborhood in which they are locat- ed. Trusting I have not taken up too much of your valuable time and space, I remain Yours truly, ()Ner Wm) REc1'E(-rs THE DEA r Crediton Eilber, M.Y.Y. and Chas.

MARRIAGE -A very pleasant event took place at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Gottfried Nediger on Tuesday, June 9, at 5 o'clock in the afternoon, when their youngest daughter, Selina, became the bride of William J. Hen- derson, a prosperous young carriage painter, of Chatham. While the wed- ding march was being played by Miss Ella Henderson, cousin of the groom, the groom took his place in the parlor, beneath a beautiful arch of evergreens and paeonies, assisted by the bride's brother, Ed. Nediger, the bride follow- ing leaning on the arm of her father, and attended by the groom's sister, Miss Rachel Henderson, of London. The bride wore a lovely gown of white filet net over white silk, trimmed with duchess lace, and wore a bridal veil caught up with sillies of the valley, and carried a beautiful bouquet of white carnations and maiden bair ferns. The bridesmaid wore a cream voile, trimmed with overlace and taff- eta ribbon, and carried a handsome bouquet of pink carnations. After the ceremony the party proceeded to the dining -room, where a sumptuous repast was provided by the hoot and hostess. The following Thursday the happy couple left for their home in Chatham, where they will reside. The ceremony was performed by Rev. Tune of Dashwood, in the presence of a large number of guests from Lon- don, Mount Clemens, Mich., Kalama- zoo, Ingersoll. Thorndale, Evelyn, Clinton and many other places. The splendid array of presents, both beau- tiful and costly, testified to the high esteetn in which the young couple are held. After tea the remainder of the evening was spent in music and danc- ing.
