E. E. Bnxri. no, editor of Saturday
Night, is in the field for the Toronto
mayoralty. He is a man of ability with
moral backbone enough to stand by hie
convictions but we doubt if the citizens
of the Queen City will be willing to place
a man in the position of presiding officer
'who is unaognainted with the practical
working of civic affairs. Mr. Shenpard
bas never sat at the Council Board and
we think this a necessary sobooling bo.
fore higher and more onerous positions
are sought.
Ten House of Industry goestion is a i
live one not only in Huron County but
in the adjoining Counties of Bruce and
Perth. Bruce residents vote on it in
connection with their Municipal eleotione.
They reported at the Co. Council 93 cub.
jests for such an institution, 34 of whom
live in the townships and 19 in the towns
and villages. The Co. bears the expense
of the vote when the Connoil is elected
by acclamation. Bruce is thereby secur-
ing the opinion of the entire County and
have gone into the question with tom•
mendable.zeal. In Perth, while a goudly
number of the Co. Councillors support
the plan both from an economic as well
as a humane standpoint, some of the
Reeves were afraid of having a vote
taken and therefore the House of In.
dustry will take a book seat for a while.
Shame on Perth. The Committee, ap-
pointed at the meeting recently held at
Clinton, have prepared and distribnted a
sheet containing pointed foots in oonnee.
tion with Huron County that cannot be
gaineayed, to prove the necessity of a
public institution of this kind. We re-
produce the matter of the oiroolar in the
columns of TnE POST this week. It IS
the duty of every ratepayer to give it a
careful pernsal and after maters con•
sideration and taking into account our
duty to our brother.man to not and vote
nonscieubiously. If the deserving poor
of this County can he oared for better and
at less expense by the erection and
maintenance of a Roose of Industry
then, there appeal's to be, in our judg-
ment, only one onuroe to fellow, viz. : to
apply the Scott Act fines now in the Co.
Treasury, the grant offered by the On-
tario Government and the necessary
amount required from the Connty to the
culmination of this benevolent and
Christian work. Nobody should shirk
the responsibility of saying yes or no to
the enquiry.

HARD To BEAT. -04 Wednesday
Pater Robertson, 9th con., disposed of a
dressed hog, 0 months old, that scaled
335 pounds, It was a dandy of the
Chester White breed. $7.25 per owt. was
paid, $28 is a good figure for one hog,
but Pete keeps nothing but the best.
Municipal matters are still on the wing.
It seems to be a fettled fact that there
will be an election. This will give elec-
tor• a chance to pronounce on the House
of Refuge question. We are promised all
necessary information regarding such en
institution. Let us study this and then
go and P 1 P put in a plum er either for or
against as our oouecienoe dictates, Mat•
tare pertaining to the township alone are
now studied for all they are worth. The
new Township Hall for instance. That
the building of this Hall was a step in
the right direction ie nub to be disputed,
but then there are some who are not
satisfied. The latest objection that we
hear of is that it is too dry a place for
holding council meetings. There is no
spirits sold in the next room but whether
this and other objections will oarry any
weight remains to be seen Any sb otor
can now go and do business in a building
he can pall his own and be es independ-
ent as you please. It is not fair to look
at the sum total of our tax receipts and
then mance rap oar minds to vote the
present Council out. Take another look
at that tax receipt, subtract the sabool
tax, then see bow small your tax will be.
Is it nota foot that teaohers salaries have
been coming down of late years, yet our
school tax is going up and up. There
must he a screw loose somewhere. There
were some new wheels put into the
machinery of our school system lately
that do not work worth a cant. They
mash too deep. 1f 110 wise men who put
in those wheels had instead sent us wore
grease in the shape of boodle for the old
machine it would be better. This and
some other items the Connell have little
or no control over. In looking over the
tax receipt item by item let us put the
blame, if blame we must, on the right
shoulders.

ter that date it 10 not lawful to shoot,
hunt or trap grouse, pheasant, partridge,

Although not in sympathy with all the
dcinge of the elowat government, we
meet say that the Game Law of last
easein11 was a step in rho right direction.
Of late years sportsmen have been about
as plentiful as the game, so that those
harmless birds and animals, habitants of
our wood -lands, were fast becoming ex.
tinct and it was right and proper that a
halt should be called for a certain perio l
