bout the elickshun down be the, say,
• Didn't we give the Grits a proper thri
rnmin? Thirty to four! It inusht lave
thint lads in Ottawa purty.shakey on
theer legs. - The besht ting fer us To-
ries to do is to make frinds wid thim
Progressives till we git the min from
the prairies on our soide. Ha -vin two
dawters 'married in the Weslit makes
some differ to me own views wid re-
gard to the pollyticks av the shtrugg-
lin farrtuners in the -whate hilt. The
ould K. 1..was a good invinshun in its
day, an kept us Tories in power fer
manny years, but now that the Wesht
is:growing shteeng it wud be a good
move to change our plishy to some

noight,„.so to shpake: but if..taht is yer
opinion, share, ye hey another guess
cont,in to ye, as me bye who was in
Fraribe wid the arrmy wad say. Our
lads wud shtick to the parthy troo
thick an thin, as me frincl, Sir John A.
A. °Macdonald used to say, They are
not loike thim- soide shteppin Grits
widout sinse enough to lasht thin"
frurn wan elickshun to another.; Meb-
• by ye moight tink too that the skame
wud not be cfuoite might. Well, I
wud loike to know what theer is wrong
about it. In the farsht place it put
us Tories back into power, which wud
be a good ting in itsilf an be ka.ypin
the counthry frum goin to the dogsi.
In the inlet place anny shfsible man,
if he has ivir lived on a farrum, knows
that ye can't kape on growin the same
koind av pertattiesyear afther year
on,the same land, and ye =slit chan-
ge yer sade whate an oats ivery few

the third place if we don't git busy an
jine up widithe U. F's. the Grits will

bate us to t, so the sooner we act the
betther.
Now befoor I close I want to ad-
- voise iviry wan, who rades this to buy
sayspu tickits fer the Chautauqua per-
ferornances to be hild in the big tint

inatter of the purchase of small fire
extinguishers for use of the fire de -
pertinent. Acting Chief 31. A. Currie
had reported the use of a small fire
extinguiSher would be a great advan-
tage in cases where water had to be

be extinguished with chemicals, in-

with water unnecessarily. The coun-
cil were agreed and the matter Was
left with the property committee to
deal with, '

Chautauqua Announcement
The committee in charge of Chau-
tauqua beg to announce to the public
that arrangements are now practic-
ally completed for what they believe
will be the best Chautauqua pro-
gramme ever presented in 7011g -ham.
The committee guaranteed the fin-
ancial success of Chautauqua and
thereby made it possible for the pub-
lic to enjoy this very high class en-
tertainment at a minimum cost to
themselves and the committee do riot
hesitate to also guarantee a full
week's programme of the best quali-
ty, presented by leading artists from
various parts of the world.
We believe Chautauqua radiates an
uplifting infuence in the life of the
community and solicit the patronage
and co-operation of all good citizens
to the end that the benefits may be
as far reaching as possible.
