Of course we can forgive our sister town for this apparent apathy, as her citizens only emerge from their long winter sleep at the approach" of warmer weather, and had the meeting been held a few months later no doubt Bayfield would have been fittingly represented. The meeting opened at about eleven in the morning, and after the creden- tials of the various delegates were examined, the meeting adjourned till 1 p. m. The principal business was the selection of a candidate to contest the riding at the next Pro- vincial election ; and on the first ballot, Fred Hess, of Zurich, receiv- ed 64 votes, Valentine Ratz, ex -M. P. of Stephen 38, and the remainder of the 140 votes cast, being distri buted among eight or ten others, among the mor© -prominent being M. Y. McLean, of the Huron Ex- positor, Thos. Fraser of Stanley,Dr. Buchanan of Zurich, and D. McGil- licudy, editor of the Goderich Sig- nal. All the gentlemen were given a chance to speak before proceed- ing with the second ballot, and as all withdrew, Mr. Hess was made the unanimous choice of the con- vention. The Meeting was very enthusiastic, and there is every evidence that the grits "intend to give the present membe4, mr. Harry Eilber, a run for his honey, but as possession is nine points of the law" Mr. Hess and his friends will have a chance to show what kind of material they are made of. Speeches were made by M. Y. Mc- Lean, ex -M. P. P., Arch. Bishop, ex-M.P.P., Valentine Rutz, ex-M.P., Fred Hess, candidate -elect, and D. McGillicudy. Bro. McGillicuddy is a charming Irish speaker, witty and full of fight, and his reference to the West Huron deadlock, caused considerable amusement. Phar :meeting closed with the usual ex- pressions of confidence in the gov- ernments of the day. Cheers for the leaders, and the reform candi- date and the singing of the Nation- ul Anthem. WID.

Editor of The Herald. I notice one of the Goderieh papers has made favorable com- ments on your editorial of a few weeks ago regarding a railway for this section . I am convinced that a united effort by the municipali- ties interested would be half the battle. Of course we may easily get like them St Joseph fellows and expect too much in a short time ; as they are booming both harbor and railway, so in comparison the request of this town for a railway only, sounds very modest. THEY HAVE IT—The new apron fad among the young ladies is al- ready in evidence, but our Zurich young ladies are so resourceful they always add something of taeix /own invention. Watch and see. I see by your paper of last week that old Eli has disposed of his farm. I hope the new proprietor will keep up the good reputation of the land, How is it that our Michigan cous- ins are monopolizing everything of late. Among other things I might mention sugar beets, earthquakes, divorces, ague, and the next we may hear will be Carrienations, al- though at present Kansas is the only place where we have heard of them blooming at this season of the year.
