eral, Major 'Phomas Beattie. Con•
servalive. %vs. elected over John I).
Jacoos. Lal or Candidate, by a ma-
jority of loati.
The coli. st was free from parti-
zan 'uittvrnees and there weak few
pereonaliti•s indulged in. The
wholesale iutporatian of outside
speaker; has apparently not 'neeu
taken kindly to by the %rorkinmen
of London and their meetings were
not characterized by overflow of
audiences. Mr. Jacobs vote reached
►Jte respectable figure of 2,173, %%•Lich
was over a third of that polled. and
consequently u.aves to him the. de-
posit he tirade on nomination day.
lu all but eight of the forty.-rt(ne
subdivisions Major Beattie waa given
a majority.
In the bye -election in North \Vel-
liligton Mr. Alex. M. Martin. Liber-
al, brother of ltev. W. M. Mir tine
Exeter was elected over Alex. Ham-
ilton by a majority of 396. Mt.
Forest. Mr. Martin's .home town
gave him a majority of 157. The
election was owing to the death of
Mr. Martin's brother, who was a
member of the Commons and who
died sonic months ago.
In East Northumberland, Mr. C.
L. Owen, rho Conservative candidate
was elected over 'Mr. A. Mulholland,
Liberal, 'by a majority of 236. The
late lIolt. Cochrane was the former
member for this constituency.
Hensall Local Option
Defence of IIy--Law Taken train
Council.
A new turn of events in aonncatia1t
with the Hensel! Locrl Option mix-
up look place last week before the
High Court at 'Toronto. A motion
was rnado on behalf of the temper -
:owe e people to set aside a resolution•
or the Council rpassed on October 7th
which authorized ' a compromise
with Mr. Cox%%torth lobo uas attack-
ing the By-law in the Courts. This
the temperance people objected to as
an abandonment of their defence at
a time %%%hen it was most needed.
'They also asked 'the 6Iig.L Court
through their solicitor that the de-
fence of the 1)y -law be taken from
the Council on (the tground that their
actrony had ehow•.n :that they were no
longer to be tru-eted •to defend it.
Upon the argument of the case at
Osgoedc 'Ball. on •\Vednoeday last,
Justice Teetzel did not Net a441a the
resolution but he (;ranted the ap-
plication of the local cption people
and save idiom the conduct of the
defence ,of the lly•law in place of the
Council ut>tan the usual terms of ;iv•
in; security for the. costs incurred
froth wow on. Thus (the Council have
been set aside and the Ily-law i.a now
likely to he defended with vizor.
The temperance people are jubilant
over this victory a.i it wa3 no secret
that they never trusted the sincer-
ity of these (connected with the de-
fence. They say that they were not
concerning themselves alsout wheth_
er tdse resolution of the Council was
set aside. The ar•;cutent Un the
applidation of 11 r. Coxworth to
leash the Ily-law will not likely ho
heard for some time. In the mean-
time it is (claimed ny thoee opposed
to local option that there is no ac-
c"n►madation in the village and that
things are going front hail to worse.
They say that liquor is brought in
anyway and business is aft a 8talid•
,still and it i; said that if the 0.131 -
law was ,tue411Cd it could never be
carried again. And so the battle
razes. Upon the case et O,;;ood&

and Messrs. W. I'roudf'_nt K. C., of
