IT has bean arranged that a date for
the trial of the Halton Dominion election
petition shall be fixed in the Queen's
Bench Division of the I -light Court the
first Court after the legal v aoation.
A row years ago two Australian Colon-
nies fought out the question of Protection
v. Free Trade. In 'Victoria Protection
won, In New South Wales Pres Trade
won. The fruits of the two policies are
now being made manifest. Proteotianist
Victoria has increased her populatiun by
e2 per cent, in 20 years ; in the same
time Free Trade New South Wales has
increased 130 per cent. The average
wages of e. workman m Viotoria ie 185,
in New South \T'ab's 8l00, with cheap-
er living. The working men aro leaving
the Protectionist Colony and going to
thence Trade Colony.
Tun total receipts from Wee of Domin-
ion lands in the Northwest last year
amounted to 0404,282, compared with
0412,317 in the preceding year and
$1,727,280 in 1882. And of the payments
on account of Dominion lends last year
$313,527 were made in scrip and $52,238
is cash. This can scarcely bo regarded
as a satisfactory statement, in view of the
inexhaustible character o[ the soil in the
Northwest and the increasing demands
for farms by the "landleas millions" of
Europe. It is evident that the federal
government's policy of railway monopoly
and trade restriction is not promoting
settlement in the Territories. During
1887.88 no less than 035 homestead en-
tries and 454 preemption entries were
cancelled.
Tan letter of Inspeotor Malloch, given
in another column, should have some
weight in deciding who is right in the
proposal to reduce the teaching staff of
Brussels Public School. The heavy rate-
payers, such as T. C. Rogers, J. D. Ron-
ald, Dr. Graham, W. R. Wilson and
others, are not the persons who are com-
plaining about the expenditure of the
School Board. We hold to our opinion,
expressed last week, that with the sohool
accommodation and school population we
have; the possibility and probability of
the loss of our school grant; the personal
responsibility of the trustees, and the
over -crowding of four rooms, we aro in-
finitely better as we are. When the
question can be legally dealt with it will
be time enough to move.
THE last Bulletin issued by the Pro-
vincial Board of Health for Ontario,
states that small -pox had been defivately
stamped out in Ontario, by the end of
November. Diphtheria and typhoid
fever, however, which cannot be dealt
with in a like manner were very preval-
enduring the full and early winter.
The conditions are thought to be suoh as
increase the the danger of tyyhoid, The
long drought in many parts would re.
duce the level of the ground water, and I
thus increase the area from which wells
and springs draw their supplies and,
with it the dau_'er of contamination from
drainers. It is pointed cut that Gies.
gow, which is supplied with Loch Kat.
trine water, had not a single death der.
ing the month of October last from ,
typhoid fever, while Brantford, where
the water is got from wells, had a death
rate of seven from this cause.

The official journal Paris, announces

Mr. VanIoan says the C. Y. R. Co. is
willing to stock and run a railway that
shall bo built from Cobonrg through the
townships of Hamilton, Raldimand Aln-
wick, Percy and Seymour to some point
on the 0. P. Iine. If the road is built
the C. P. R. Co. will run it, and in ad-
dition will pay 40% of thio gross yearly
receipts to the company that couetructa
it. This; sasms like a very fair offer,
says a Cobonrg dispatch, and one that
that the municipalities will likely take
up. They are moving in the natter.
A part of the abandoned workings in
the Busk Mountain section of the West
Shenandoah Colliery caved in Monday
night, and did groat damage. The sur.

Railroad tarn.table and round -house,
eank eight feat for en area of 200 yards
in length and 80 yards in width. no
tracks of the Pennsylvania & Lehigh It
R. also sank several feet, and the rails
and sleepers were left suspended in the
air for several yards. A large number of
boys wore etanding on the turn -table
when it sank, and had a rniraaulous es.
cape from death, as at ono place the sur.
face tenth to a groat depth and caused a
great yawning breach forty feet deep,
and the boys barely escaped being thrown I
into it.

LADIES AND GE:NTLE:IIEN.—I beg,

necessities of the School. As !t

To the Rat"payers of the Tillage
(I/' Brussels :
LADIES AND GENTLElll(N.—Hav-

Trustee I beg to request your
votes. If elected I shall endeavor
to economize, as I believe that a
saving of several hundred dollars
can be mads without injnriug the
efficiency of the 8011001. The
objection urged against me on
account of absence is an uuten-
able one, as I can so arrange my
trips as to attend any meetings
or other bl,sint» requi.iug the
attention of the Board, so that
this objection used by opponents
really does not exist. The posi-
tion was unsought by me, but, as
an old teacher, having experience
in school work, 1 was requested
by a number of ratepayers to be-
comea candidate, bat, now T 1101
in the field, I naturally wish to
be elected and hopetomerit your
support. I am,
Faithfully yours,

Some of our German and English
friends were a little offended when we
apologised to our Irish and Scotch oust.
tomer&, a few wceke ago, that we had
not included them. The reason was
that the English do not as a rule care for
the strong East India Blank Teas, but
prefer the mild flavored Congops, Sou.
ohongs end Hysone, of China. Any per.
son who prefers this kind of tea should
try Live pounds of our English breakfast
tea, either straight black or mixed. Por
our German friends who drink very little
tea at all, we have a splendid lot of Green
Coffee, at 20 and 25 cents that will suit
them exactly. For our Canadian friends,
the best and most numerous of them all,
We have the Japan Toa. The Carnaok
nine times out of ten goes for the Japan
because it is cheap, wholesome and re-
quires very little care in drawing. All
you have to do is to throw it into a pot
and boil it. Our Japan Tea at 25o, 800,
350 and 40o is good, gives a strong, clear
liquor, and is very cheering. Try five
pounds of it. Amu Goon,

P. S. Those who are using our Assam
Tea should not use so much of it as
other teas as some parties woroaomplain-
ing that it was too strong for titeni.
