JULY 19th, 1990, NOTES AND COMMENTS. - We hear that a movement is on foot South Huron Liberal circles t Shelve John McMillan in favor a the candidacy of M. Y. MaLeap. Just how correct this rumor may be time alone Call tell, lint there is no doubt whatever that two-thirds ot the party are tired of Honeet John and would. Much prefer MeEwan, Snell or :Me - Lean. UP to recently the first named was supposed to be the favorite, but if consents to go before the cou- vention there will be a pretty fight for the nomination. If Meleea,n takes the Connuons the question of the regis- trarship ought to be easily solyea, Milton News Record. This is aeeutoption.

In addition to the monster labor demon- stration, there will be a re -union of the Old Boys of Perth front all over the provieee.

PRINCIPAL GRANT IEAKS STRONGLY. Writing in the Queen's Quarterly Priucipal (=rapt says "The moral fife of the country suf- fers from attempts at whitewashing Mr. Lemieux ; but what language is too strong to apply to the emergency food scinadal ? "It was bad enough, to 'end our e,c, dier lads to Kingston in the depth of winter miserably shod'bad enough to keep others at Toronto for weeks with- out rifle practise, the rifles having been sent on to Halifax ; but to give them as emergency food wbat was no better than pea meal cates was like giving deveynnig men sham life -preservers. ..-The offence deserves t ihe penitenti- ary, as the Premier said, but thotigh the cffence has been proved, will any- cte te sent to prison ?

In the same period there were 137 births and 07 deaths. Just when a farmer had a nice crop of grain with all the appearances of a good yield, something pops up to mystify them. The good farmers of this district, says the Woodstock Times,now have the Hessian fly to contend with. A great many fields which looked very profitable a week ago, are now completely ruined by this much dreaded insect, which is getting hi very effective work in many parts of the country. 1•111111•11..

Now that Mete is a vacancy at the Central mal Model School, Goderiela for a prmcipal, in place of the late S. P.

Before Dungapnon sehool closed for the holidays the pupils presented T. -alien with a beautiful Morris chair and a centre table accompanied by a neatly worded address. Mr. Allen re- signed his position to look after his grocery business. Erne Cooper, a former Clinton boy, is now in .Montreal where be is acting as editor of McLean & Co.'s publica- tions. The post is an important one for so young a inan and his appoint- ment shows that his employers have confidence in his ability to fill it. Miss Alice Twitchell, who has been teaching at Laurier, returned to her home on Tuesday. She has severed her connection with that school and has also decided to abandon the pro- fession.

An interesting little story cOmes from Seaforth. Little Henry, the eight year old son of Rev. F. H. Lar- kin, lately called to Seaforth, got homesick for Chatham, and. one day while his father was away and his mother down town. he got his father's wheel and started to ride to that city. He reached Hensel], about 18 miles distant from Seaforth. There he went into a farmer's to stay all night. Henry told the farmer who he was and that he was wheeling to Chatham to see a, nice man a friend of his, named Kenneth Urquhart. The farraer thought that the distance was too long for the little fellow to wheel, and com- municated with his parents. Mr. and Mrs. Larkin had been searching high and low for Henry, and the farmer's message relieved them greatly. Henry returned to Seaforth in the morning. 1•••••••••••01. Citizens have remarked with great satisfaction that the genus hobo has this summer almost disappeared from the land. This is largely due to the motion of the Legislature in requesting magistrates to give all vagrants a term. The tramps are zealously avoiding Ontario, and Ontario:is very , glad.

When the arsenal had been evacuatea by the Chinese, the Americans, the French, the Japanese and the Welsh Fusiliers advanced towards the native city and. joined with .the other attacking forces.
