FRIDAY, NOV. 15, 1895.
PREMIER Warrswe
Ax, of Newfoundland,
is to visit this Dominion with the expeo-
tation of negotiating terms foe confeder-
ation.
IT is expeoted that England will im-
mediately send troop to Aehantee. The
majority of the troops sent will be color-
ed men. The rule of the African. Xing
in that country ie pronounced to be die,
helical in the extreme.
Tan Prince of Wales completed his
54th year on Saturday last. Her Majesty
the Queen is now in her 77th year, and
the condition of ber health is so preoari•
one that the appointment of an assistant
pbysioian•in-ordinary is considered neces-
sary.
To Provincial Board of Health has
been wrestling with a complaint that cer-
tain persons in Toronto the "good" are
purchasing worn out horses and convert-
ing them into sausages, The Board will
make a thorough investigation as the To-
rontonians don't want their palates tick-
led with old "hoes." It's too bad the sup-
ply of felines has not proved equal to the
demand.
A. Magma, woman, on whom devolved
the duty of supporting a sister and some
small Children, has succeeded for some
years past in eking out a living for them
by donning man's clothes and thus ob-
taining work. Ou Saturday she was
dragged before the Recorder, sentenced to
a month's imprisonment and fined $10.
There is no pardon or excuse for crimes
like that.
IT is stated that a convention of the
Patrons of East Huron will be held in
the Town Hall, Brussels, on Friday of
this week, at 1 o'clock, p. m. for the
purpose of considering the advisability of
placing a candidate in the field to con.
test East Huron for the Local Legisla-
ture. as East Huron is not yet vacant
n the Lo: al Legislature, and the only
grouni IS for supposing so based upon
rump', our Patron friends cannot be
than
ebarl eft 'pith dilatoriness in the matter.

of the Orange Institution, replying to an
address by the Orangemen of Cork, where
he is at present sojourning, said Orange.
men were not opposed to any fair system
of Iooal government which will put Ire.
land in exactly the same position ae
England and Scotland. Re regretted to
see a statement that the Government
were diep osed to boycott Orangemen, so
far as the administration of patronage
was Concerned He Could not believe
that any minister would actually say
over his own signature thaw because a
man was an Orangeman he could not be
appointed to an office for which in other
respects he was qualified.
Tas editor of the Wingham Advance
displays very bad taste in our judgment
by continually "harpooning" Dr. Mc-
Donald, M. P. If he were an outsider
there might be some excuse but to nag
away at an honorable and useful citizen,
as the Dr. has been proven to be
by his election to both Reeveship
and Mayoralty ; the interests he has
manifested in the industries of the town,
and the investment of his money in the
erection of the finest block in Wingham,
is surely not agreeable to any fair mind-
ed resident. Dr. McDonald is a public
man of course, and his actions as such
are open to criticisim, but it should be of
a manly character and not merely for
political animus or a desire to work up a
little cheap notoriety. The doctor needs
no recommendation from us or anybody
else as his long residence in Huron and
unimpeachable character speaks foriteelf.

Toronto turns out some excellent home

journal devotes more specie to purely Can.

more fairly nor more thoroughly. Every

Our business is not done in the Newspapers, nor is our
work done in our minds. We work in earnest foryour
trade and we get it, at times. We feel very grateful
for your patronage and would like to tell you that we
are doing well, only that we see others bragging and
blowing about the immense business they are doing.
In these days of "Brag and Bluster” the truth is very
small in comparison with a lie. It is very easy for a
merchant who does not intend to fulfill his promises
to promise much. There is nothing visionary about
our methods of doing business. When we have any-
thing special to tell you we tell it in as plain English
as we can and you know just what to expect when you
come.
