Briny person interested in Provinoial
politics should give the spew() of Thos.
Gibson, the level headed representative
of East Hurop, a oaraful perusal. It
May be found in this issue of Tag POST.
Mr, Gibson has the practical experience
of over 20 yeare booking him up in bis
Rots and figures. The Oppo•ition has
little to find fault with In Sir Oliver
Mowat and hie able adminietratiou of
affairs in Ontario. A comparison with
the state of affairs at Ottawa makes a
speaking picture
Tag much talked of Remedial School
Bill was read the second time in the Com-
mons on Tuesday, when lengthy speeches
were made by Sir Ohms. Tupper, defend•
ing it ; Hon. Wilfrid Laurier, who mow
ed the Elia menthe' hoist ; Mr, Dickey,
and N. C. Wallace. It ie rumored that
the Government will modify the Bill if
Mr. Greenway will agree to a com-
promise. With the almost unanimous
support of hie Government, 81 to 8 the
vote showed, the latter le not likely to
do much compromising after the coercive
actions of the Dominion Cabinet.

Of hie enole, Wm, Rae, of Fargo, Dallota,
on Feb, 12th, Pnenumonia was the inn•
mediate oans014 death, though for years
he bed been trouoled-with begirt disease
and dyspepsia, He was 40 years of sgo

brought home for interment,
Ie the common par aurae of the day we
believe Hon. Mr. Hardy hag "bitten off
more than be can chew" in his proposed
Bill to reduce the Ouauty Councils. No.
body appears to doubt the necessity of
reduotiou, but to provide en equable die•
tribe tion is not so easily arrived at. The
striking off of Deputy Reeves, giving the
Reeve the voting power, would, probably, 1
be as easy a way out of the diffinulty as
any. This plan would reduce Huron
County Council from 51 to 25 and wonld
reduce the per diem nearly $400 for each
session, to say nothing about mileage.
If Mr. Bardy's proposition were to be
carried out the election of the represent-
atives who would constitute the Co.
Oonnail should be by wards in a large
County like Huron, and if the term of
office were after the style of school true.
tees, viz., holding office for 8, 2 and 1
years, respectively, there would always be
a certainty of having men at the Board
aogoaiuted with the work. After the
Bill is well threshed out by the Commit•
tee and the House it should be submit-
ted to the various County Councils for
their opinion and then dealt, with at the
next session of the Legislature.
