He suggests that every man selling or smok- ing it bo compelled to put his name and address on eaoh package, thereby enabl- ing it to be traced hack to the first party in of fraud, or if satisfactory to give. the purchaser the opportunity of cor- respondence for other ordure. It ie a good idea and one that should be put in practice. Tam Toronto World, whose editor is an M. P., says the Dominion elections will be bald as soon as the new voters' lists are ready. QUITE a number of Patron candidates will be in the field in the forthcoming Federal eleotion. The N. P. pinches the farmer as well se the villager. LAsx year Mayor Kennedy, of Toronto, defeated Mr.. Fleming by 4,500 votes but in the contest this year the majority was reduced to 45. Just the two 00 off, that's all. It was quite a toboggan though.

William Ewart Gladstone, has celebrated his 85811 birthday, and on that occasion was the recipient of many congratulations, by.post and wire, as well as birthday presents from his friends. Mr. Gladstone is e marvel for his years. Tan Pon has much pleasure in nomin- ating Arch. MoMurchie, Reeve ofClfnton, for the Warden's chair in the year 1895. Mr. McMurohie is an old and worthy member who has rendered excellent ser- vice as a Co. Councillor and the Warden - ship is an honor be is wellldeserving of. Pnsilmu BownaL's illness at Halifax prohibited him from attendance at Sir John Thompson's funeral, and he return. ed home with as little delay as possible. Mr. BowelPs health has been somewhat impaired for quite a while, and as he is past his 71st birthday it will not be a surprise to know of failing powers, both mental and physical. The many cares and responsibilities borne by the Premier of this Dominion needs all the vigor of early manhood rather than the declining energies of old age. Atrono the Reeves who will be missed from the County Council this year will be the tall, athletic Griffin, of Ashfield ; the jocular Taylor of East Wawanosh ; the painstaking Milne, of Grey ; and the indomitable worker Proudfoot, of Gode- rich. With these Deputy Reeves Oliver, Dames, Bissett and a few others are missing also some of the "boys" will be rather lonesome for a time.

THE Toronto Globe has given another exhibition of the energy which has char. acterized its managers for many years. Last Sabbath morning the Globe building was destroyed by fire, carrying away everything in the shape of type, type- setting maohines, presses, &o., yet on Monday morning, bright and early, a pa- per was issued as usual that would com- pare very favorably with the best city daily. The work was done in the office of the Empire, whose manager kindly placed it at the disposal of the Globe. Although the loss will be very heavy the Directors have all their plans arranged for a better outfit than ever for the pro. duction of the best daily and weekly in the Dominion.

Now that the School Board is once more settled for another year it would be well for them to relieve the minds of a number of parents on a few questions of special interest to them. let, In refer- ence to Third Class Teacher's work being continued in the school. Every Trustee may have his mind made up on this sub- ject but the public is not always aware of their opinions, and as their are some 15 or 16 resident pupils taking up this work at the present time it has a strong local bearing. We have not heard a member of the Board object to the Principal con. tinning this class nor would it be wise for them to do so, in our opinion, as that world place our school on a lower grade than any of the village schools around us, or in fact numerous rural sehools, in addition to largely increased expense to parents or guardians. 2nd, Tho non. resident pupils.
