De Valera's election to a seat in
he parliament of Northern Ireland
s amusing, but not surprising. Many
arts of that dominion are strongly
Oman Catholic, strongly anti4Bri-
sh and are not even Northern as a
glance at the map will show. Until
he became Prime Minister of the
Free State, De Valera was not per-
mitted to land in Northern Ireland,
and his adherents there would look
upon it as a rich Irish joke to elect
him to a seat in the northern parlia-
ment although he cannot take it. He
cannot or will not take the oath of
fealty to the British Sovereign. It
was not an uncommon thing in the
other days to elect members to West-
minster who for the same reason
would not take their seats.
Northern Ireland still remains true
to Britain. Although .many Nation-
alists were elected, Lord ,Craigaven
has a comfortable majority. He
stands for union 'with Britain. De
Valera stands for union of all Ire-
land and severance from Britain,
but his personality and his methods
are not such as. to have any appeal
to the majority in the northern coun-
ties.

A young Toronto athlete attempt,
ed to capture a man 'who was trying
to burglarize his father's house. The
athlete was shot and killed. The
robber escaped. Always, or nearly
always, it is the wrong man who
holds the revolver, so why allow it
to be so easily obtained? Most of
the revolvers sold find their way in-
to the hands of miscreants who thus
become potential murderers.
o
None but makers and dealers
would suffer if all revolvers were
confiscated and destroyed and no
more made. The only real value the
weapon ever had was for the protec-
tion of life and property, but that
has been nullified by the weapon fal-
ling into the hands of men who use
it to steal property and, if necessary
to the robbery and escape, take life.

A man who was officially declared
dead and buried thirteen years ago
has eome to life again in the United
States. True he is not so lusty and
spry as he was but just the same he
is pretty lively for an old codger who
has met so many rebuffs and revers-
es in his day. They were due in
the main to his own excesses. Lack-
ing restraint and self-control, he did
not know how to behave himself. It
was said of him that he had more
private friends and public enemies
than any other man.

His friends are now rejoicing in
his ressurrection and itis enemies are
taking it lying down. The Iatter

shock of seeing the old rascal burst
his cerements and swagger forth as
if being dead and buried for a few
years was only an incident in n car•
eer of revelry and strife, Whether
the old reprobate will conform to the
new rules and coders made expressly
for his government remains to be

two gentlemen enter the contest it
will be warm, as both are good men

WHEN THE PRESENT CENTURY
WAS YOUNG
From The News -Record, Dec. 17th,
1908:
The bowling alley was opened on
Friday. The sport seems to have
"caught on" and will no doubt be a
popular local amusement,
The skating rink was opened on
Saturday evening last with a good
patronage. The rink, under the man-
agement of Mr. Davis, is always a
popular resort in the winter time for
the young people.
Our local merchants have made big
preparations for the Christmas trade
and the stores are full to overflow-
ing with seasonable goods at reason-
able prices.
Unusually sad was the death
of Mrs. McLeod, which
took place on Friday last from ty-
phoid fever. Mrs. MacLeod, her hus-
band and two of their children, were
all down with the fever and the mo-
ther had departed this life and the
funeral had taken place before the
other members of the family knew
of her death.
The officers of the Clinton' branch
of the C.M.B.A. are as follows for
the ensuing year:
;Chancellor: D. Flynn.
President: John Shanahan.
Vice: P. O. Reynolds.
2nd Vice: John Carbert.

DONALD Ai. MACKENZIE OF GOD-
ERICH TOWNSHIP KILLED.BY
A FALLING TREE
A very sad accident happened in
Goderich township on Tuesday which
resulted in the death of Donald A.
Mackenzie of the first concession.
Frank Picot and Mr. Mackenzie
were sawing a fallen tree, against
which a sapling and another partly
fallen tree had lodged. When they
finished the cut the roots dropped
and in a twinkling the second tree
crashed down and caught the Unfor-
tunate man between the two, Crush-
ing him to death immediately. . .
The sad affair has cast a gloom over
the whole township. Mr. Mackenzie
was an honest and industrious man
Who had the respect of all who knew
him. He was an elder of St. And.,.
row's church, Bayfield, and took an
active interest in all its works. As
late as Sunday evening last he led
the Christian Endeavour Society.
Tuesday being the last day for the
payrnent of taxes Chief Wheatley had
a busy day of it. He was assisted
by Sergeant Welsh, the two taking
in over $6.500. The total recipts up
to the 15th were this year just a
little lower than last.
The barn of Mr. James McMichael
of the second concession of Hullett
was destroyed by fire on Sunday eV-
ening, together with all its contents
There was an insurance which does
not by any means cover the loss. The
fire vias caused by a dog chasing the
cat and upsetting the lantern.

Huron County Council Selects
Returned Men as New Officials
J. M. Roberts, Goderich, Clerk; A. 11. Erskine'
Treasurer, Selection made from
110 Applicants
Wednesday Evening
In a lively two-hour session, pan-
demonium at times reigning with the
sound of the gavel and several mem-
bers on their feet at one time, Huron
County Council Wednesday unani-
mously ratified the report of warden's
committee, embodying drastic claus-
es, the most contentious of which
was that calling for the dismissaI
front office of George W. Holman,
77 -year-old clerk and deputy treas-
urer, after 16 years' service.
This action was not taken before
Mr. Holman was given full oppor-
tunity to defend himself against
charges contained in the auditors' re -
other members of the warden's com-
mittee and repeatedly was called to
order.
He defended his purchases of sta-
tionery and gave reasons why he
had collected his salary in advance.
"I defy any man or woman to say
that I ever took one dollar that was
not mine," said Mr. Holman, as he
related how the arrest of the treas.
user had so shocked him as to put
him in bed for 10 clays.
"I will admit I did not put tissue
paper around the records for these
auditors. I did not greet them in
plug hat and frock coat, nor did T
port that he had blocked and ob- run up the courthouse flag when they
strutted the investigation which ev, arrived. What right have they to
entually led to the arrest and con- padlock the door of a county office
viction of tate county treasurer and
two auditors.
After two hours' discussion the
Council unanimously adopted the
auditors' report, also that of the'war-
den's committee, both of which
strongly condemned the attitude of
the clerk toward the audit; it car-
ried a clause to appoint a new treas-
urer and to rescind the old by-law,
also to repeal the by-laws appoint,
ing George Holman, deputy -treasur-
er and county clerk, and to appoint a
new official to these positions.
Three times the clerk rose to his
feet to appeal to some member to
ask for the "yeas" and "nays". Each
time the request was met with a
chorus of "carried."
The fireworks took place while the
Council was in committee of the

Warden Ballantyne: "I locked the
door. I caught a man sten.ing, and
what could I do? I put on the guard.

Holman called me in and said: "I ant

too hard on Young.' T simply walk-
ed away from him, disgusted," the
warden shouted at the top of his
voice, the while pointing an accusing
finger at the aged clerk.

man, and you know you didn't. You

er been read than Mr. Holman was grasshoppers were eating your son's
on his feet. He challenged the leg-
ality of appointing the special audi-
tors and their efficiency. He said
he himself had been an auditor for
25 years and 16 years county clerk
and that in all his experience never
had he witnessed so many irregular-
ities in the conduct of county busi-
ness as he had in the past six
months.
A reeve: "You mean in the past
six years. You had better sit down."
"This thing involves my honor and
everything that belongs to me,"
dramatically shouted the near octo-
genarian official.
"You have spent $4,500 of the
county's money illegally and paid it
over to a foreign auditor and, by for-
eign, I mean he does not belong to
this county. He has made all sorts
of accusations as to how I blocked
his investigation. I say he had no
business in rely office. He was not
engaged to audit my books, but the
treasurer's books. He says he could
not get invoices and warden's orders
from me. I ask you, did . he ask for
invoices from the highways depart-
ment, from the house of refuge, the
Children's shelter?"
Chairman Francis: "I won't have
this form of. questioning. Make your
speech or I will have to ask you to
sit down."
Clerk Holman said he followed the
same procedure that had been fol-
lowed in Huron County for 50 years.
He complained he had inadequate
filing equipment.
"The auditor makes much of the
fact that I had a solicitor with me
when I appeared before the examin-
er."
Reeve McNab: "Why should a wit
ness need a solicitor?"
The Clerk here started to fire ac-
cusations at Warden Ballantyne and
crops in Saskatchewan."
Before things had quietened down,
County Solicitor R. C. Hays was
called in to answer some of the char-
ges of legal irregularities, and Mr.
Holman immediately proceeded to
take a fling out of the solicitor for
the part he had taken in the investi-
gations.
The far-reaching recommendations
of the committee were put through
in rapid fire order, the report adopt-
ed and a vote of thanks tendered the
warden's committee, all amid the
protesting voice of the aged clerk, on
his feet in front of his desk. He took
no minutes of proceedings. When
Council adjourned, he was still ap-
pealing to "some member" to call
for the "yeas" and "nays."
It was the most dramatic scene in
the history of Huron County Coun-
cil's long and enviable record.
Thursday Morning
The time-honored system of ap-
pointing the Warden of Huron Coun-
ty in a cauens of Liberal or Constr.
vative members alternately will be
discarded in future and will be made in
open Council. This was decided at
the Thursday morning session when
a motion of Reeves Me'.ick and Mc -
Nall to that effect was unanimously
carried. Warden Ballantyne was
appointed this year by Liberal mem-
bers in caucus, and the honor would
have fallen to the Conservative
forces in January had the historic
rule been followed.
Roy Patterson, County Engineer,
gave a brief address on the county
roads. He said his Department was
unable to do' as much work as they
would have liked owing to lack of
funds. He emphasized the value of
using low cost surfacing.
Mr. Patterson then made a 'ver-
