N OTES AND 00 MMIINTS
At a lebor demonstration ab Toronto
recently, one orator made the demand
that Sir Oliver Mow et should, a once
epend a iiillion &rehire a the Ontario
surplus in providenn work for people
who may need ft.
to in the election courts, succeed-
ed in getting elected for the old
Liberal riding of South Huron by
the enormous Majority a 21 VOteS,
'developing on such peculiar
lime that he must be re ,arded as
• ocoupyingin the politica t world a
plece similar to that filled itt the
animal worid by Baroune's "what
is it?" Nothing like Mr. McLean
has ever been seen in politics be-
fore, and when he disappears from
the scene a few weeks hence he
will leave a blank which can Dever
be filled again by any political
curiosity or monstrosity.
• At the Ontario election in June
last the policy of the Mewat Gov-
ernment was attacked by the Pat-
rons and the Conservatives. Apart
from the charges of ex ravegance
made againet them, the main issue
was on the question of government
patronage. The issue between a
government and its opponents at
the poles was never more clearly
defined. The governmet t defend-
ed itself and maintained that as a
principle of government it should
retain possession of the patronage.
Every candidate it put in the field
declared that he approved of the
government's policy. If he did
not believe in it, he must have ob-
tained the nomination of his party
under false pretence.s, •and was
therefore a traitor. If he believea
in it then he ought te betieve in it
now, especially if . he secured a
majority of the -votes cast. Among
those who so went to the polls as
supporters of the Mowat Govern
ment and who were elected to
support it on the finest)] the policy
fought out,was Mr. M. Y. McLean,
of Seaforth.
.A. short time ago the Patrons of
Industry who were elected met in
Toronto and organized as a third
or centre party. They riamed a
set of resolutions declaring among
other things that fee paid officials
must be elected by the people in
stead ot being appointed by the
Mowat Government. This patree

WEST HURON TEA.- CHEES'
ASSOCIATION.
-----
The West littron Teaohers' Associa-
tion met in the Collegiate Institute
Goelorieb, on Sept, 27th, 1894, accord-
ing to the Exeoutive Committee's an-
no:moment. °
Pros. J. T, Wren occupied the chair.
re. E. Brown conducted devotional ex-
ercises.
The minutes of the last session of
the Institute at Exeter were read and
adopted.
H, L Strang, B. A.., head nitteter
the Collegiate Institute welcomed the
association, and on, behalf of the trustee
beard, preseuted the teachers the free-
dom, of the building.
The following committees were then
appointed 1--Audit--Messrs S. J, Boyd
and J.A,Deeepsey ; Resolution -Messrs
• J B, Weatherhead, H. L Strang, R,
E. Brown, Misses Vosper and eMeenath.
S. J. Boyd then proceeded. to read an
able paper on "Education from a moral
standpoint," Several teachers discus-
sed the subject and complimented. Mr.
Boyd on his excellent paper. A resolu-
ion of thanks to kr. Boyd was passed
by the Aseociation.
The time for adjournment having
arrived the assoolation adjourned to
1.30 p.

The Association met at 1.30p. ni,
The minutea of the forenocn session
Were read and approved.
Miss M. Rusk, of the Goderich Model
school, then read an excellent paper on
"Penmanship and How to Teach it."
Miss Rusk teaches vertical writing and
is an advocate of the system. Many
teachers took part in the discussion and
rnuch valueble information was gleaned
from the paper and from the discussion
that followed.
A general discussion took place as to
the deplorable practice of underbidding
that is at present in vogue. among
teachers. Nothing tended to lower the
dignity of the profession more than this
pernieious method of securing positions.
Many valuable hints were thrown out
relative to making the teaching pro-
fession rnoreperraanent. On motion of
Inspector Tom this matter was referred
to the resolution committee to report
thereon.
W. McRoberts, of Holmesville, . then
took up "Geography -how to teach it."
• Mr. McRoberts went into the matter
very thoroughly, and showed that he
had bestowed much time and careful
study in preparing his paper. The
subject was dismissed further by- several
of the teachers present.

• So will their uncles and their
cousins and their aunts. Mr.. M.
• Y. McLean, through his organ, the
Sea.Corth Expositor, lauds the
Patron resolutions to the skies,and
declares that he has "repeatedly
and earnestly" advocated in his
paper every reform demanded.

admit,however, that he has for
years been outspoken in behalf of
Patron principles. The Govern.
mem whose candidate he was, and
which he will support through
thick aed thin, in spite of his Pat-
tonism, not ouly have not favored
• these reforms, but they have op-
posed them with the utmost
stubbornness. If they had not
been opposed to such reforms they
would have made them when the
matter Was brought to their at-

nomination under false pretences,

Mr. McLear. has turned traitor
toward the Reform, party and really
desires to ally himself with one
section of their oppenents, he
ought to be manly enough to call
the party convention together and
resign his seat.
But Mr. MoLea.n has rto intent.

On motion of G. IV. Kitty, l'ar.

method of teaching paregraph analysis,
which be did to the great satisfaction of
the Association, taking "The Trial be

Moved by Mr, Kitty, eeconderl by
Kr. Baird, and reeolved that a hearty
vote of thanks be tendered Mr. chimer -
for his excellent paper and inetruct-
ive address.
13, Weatherhead then sheeeed lite
method of teaching literature, taking
the poem, "The Winter,"by Charles D
Roberts. A class of made' school
students was present affording Mr.
• Weatherhead an opportunity of illus-
trating his method, of teaching literature
in a practical manner. The subject
was further discussed by several
toad era.
W. McCluskey introduced the sub,
ject "Home work, nature of, assigning
and correction of the seme.+'
Mr. McCluskey was opposed, to the
assigning of home work to any large
extent, unless by way of reviewing the
work of the dayso as t
mi
o fix the Infor-
mation gleaned n the mind. If any
work is assigned it should be such as
can be easily examined and to serve
more as an exercise of neatneas than
that of mental strain. The subject was
turther discussed by several of the
teaohers present.
On motion of G. W. Holman seconded
by G. Baird a unanimoue vote of thanks
of the Association was • tendered the
Collegiate Institute Bonre for the use
of the excellent assembly room for the
sessions of the Association, and the .As-
sociation adjourned at 12.30 to meet at
the call of the executive.
The Association is decidedly in favor
• of a union meeting with East Huron
next spring.
A. J. Moore, 3, A., next took up the
subject of "Derivations" and dealt with
his method of taking up the work with
pupils. The difference between de-
rivation. and inflection should be care-

the Bay Branch Agricultural Society, was
the most successful in the annals oi the

for tile removal of debts, and recommend-
ed no mitten re the abolition of pew rents.
The report of the committee on temper-
ance is volaininous, covering fifteen pages
of foolscap. It reviewed the work of the
standing committee appointed 'by the last
general co ference,
The following deolaratiou of principles
was reconAmended to the conference
That the liquor traffic cannot be licensed
without sin.
That it is the duty of the civil govern-
ment' to probibit the trede of -intoxicating
drinks.
That the Methodist Church stands fo'
righteousness iu our nation, and believes
the principles taught tey Jesus Christ
should take preoedence of all others in the
political councils of or people.
That we refuse to consent to and repu-
diate all compacts and compromises with
the licensed liquor traffic as being unholy.
That we hereby give notice that we will
do our utmost to utterly destroy all part-
nerships between the people of patuale.
and dealers in alcoholic liquors and their
sympathizers.
And, finally, declare that this ultimatum
shall be presented to Methodist electors to
the conventions of the political parties
with urgent entreaty to nominate only
such candidates as will be in accordance
with these utterances. And we further
recommend such electors to refuse their
consent to nominations which ignore those
principles, and that the standing cora-
znittees on temperance be instructed to
have this declaration printed in circular
form and. circulated throughout the Do-
rainiou.

himself to the destruction of the liquor
trail° at the earliest possible moraent can
have the support of the members of the

The Free Press editorially says in regard
to Mr. Rochester: 'We have lost a tried
and .trusted personal friend, one most inti-

well as we did, we are the better able to
fully appreeiate the loss the public has
sustained by his departure from the midst
of those among whom he ha's' labored so
long and well. It may not be amiss to
note, arid perhaps it will interest our
readers to learn, that Mr. Rochester aided
in the establishment of the Free Press in
the year 1869, and the friendship which
then commenced between the deceaeed and
its proprietor has conteutted unabated and.
unbroken ever since."
