Tat purchase of eine or tett fine new street lamps was a step in the onward march of progress characteristic of our Canadian towns. The friendly light• thrown up and down the streets on dark nights is the one thing needful, without doubt. So far so good. What do our town daddies think about extending the borders and securing a half dozen more lamps to be placed at the principal corn- ers of some of the book streets ? The first cost is about all the expense worth considering a- the additional charge for takiug care of them would be a mere bagatelle when divided over 1. a corpora- tion. If light is good ou Turnberry street it should be equally desirable on Mill, Queen, Eliz beth or any other street. The investment is a permanent one so that the most economical should not find room to grumble.

Gibson, M.P.P., for In Huron nearly 7,000 of the pupils this Riding, relative to the use of the are in the 3rd and 411 readers. 132 male ballot at Trustee election- was very bad. ly needed. As the law stood any muni. cfpality ouce trying the ballot had to oolttinee it. Now they may or may not. atter a trial of three years. While we most heartily approve of the nee of the ballot for muuicipal and governmental elections we are not so sure that the use of the ballot for school trustees is an im- provement, for this reason :---tn many of the towns and villages municipal and 82 female teacher's find employment in this county, the average male salary being $408, and the average female $270. The total amount raised for public school purposes in the county was $111,774, and the average octet per pupil was $6 33. It will be seen that Huron is third highest in the number of school children within ire borders, fifth in the number of teach- ers employed, yet .there are 39 other counties where the overage oost per pupil is higher than it is hsro. For teachers' eateries Goderich paid $3,775 ; Clinton, $8,156 ; Wingham. $3,698, and Seaforth, matters get, more or less, mixed with 62,846. There are 4 separate sohools in politica and if the trustee election is held pupils, and the total amount reused for Haron, with a total attendance of 246 at the same time this name epirit is al- most sure to pervade M. While there may be some relation between polities and municipal elections the relationship is very distant between polities and the management of our public sohools. An. other amendment allowing the use of the ballot on some other day than the an- nual municipal election would be a big improvement we believe. Brussels, Goderich and Wroxeter are the only three planes in Huron County that use the ballot in Trustee elections. Huron County. Dungannon is still progressing.
