A GOOD SPEWII AT A BAD TIME.—
DEAR EXPoSITON„—At the school pic-
nic, held in Mr. Ritchie's bush on Fri
-
slay last, one of the speakers, the Rey.
A. E. Smith, of Varna, took the op-
portunity of making an onslaught upon
she members of the county council who
saw fit to vote against the motion for a
salaried Police Magistrate at their last
meeting. Now, while firmly believing
shat the speaker was actuated by no
other motives than those of doing good,
sem just as firmly convinced that his
semarks were entirely out of place.
The picnic was a sehool picnic, to which
;the parents, teachers and pupils of dif-
ferent sections were invited. No one
will deny that at such a meeting, peace
sea good -will should reign supreme,
that whatever differences of opinion
people may have on the various burn-

have come to have i good time together.
()Id acquaintances from different sec-
tions, and it may be from the same sec-
s tion, who do not often see each other,
here meet to Spend a pleasant time, and
why should a speaker mar the harmony
by dragging in subjects calculated to stir
up party feelings? Such an act is en-
tirely contrary to the Whole spirit and
object of a picnic party. When a nsan
is invited to speak at a social gathering
such as a school picnic he can surely
funl something both, pleasing and profit-
able awithout dabbling in municipal
matters. Again, was it not a cowardly
act on the part of Mr. Smith to take
thatparticular time and place to make
an attack upon members of the county
council who were not supposed to be
there to defend themselves ? Not only
did he make an attack upon them, but
in the strongest language declared he
would use all his powers in preventing
the re-election of these men. "Doth

Mr. Smith, I am quite sure, did
not do it from any cowardly spirit—

DEAR, EXPOSITOR,—When we started
from Seaforth on May *Sth we soon
reached Stratford ; then we changed
cars for Wiarton, and got there at 6.30
p. me and took the, boat " Atlantic" at
12.30 p. m., and reached here on the
following Monday. We could not have
had a much better trip. It took us a
week to get moved onto our land. We
are at present busy clearing up, stump-
ing, sowing, planting and fixing. There
has been pretty dry weather since two
or three days afterwe landed. We had
a splendid rain on he lst of June. The
roads are good, and everything is look-
ing well. All of us like the country
splendidly, and are always prepared for
our meals. This is a very healthy
country, there being no deaths in this
neighborhood sincei I was up last year.
We have lots of !good water, as the
creek water is egulil to rain water for
stashing, and. the spring water is equal
to the spring water of Huron county.
There is a good show of small fruit
here, such .as strawberries, raspberries,
huckleberries, - gooseberries, currants
and cranberries. We had two or three
light frosts since we landed, but nothing
to do any damage. The cattle are
doing fine on the feed in the bush, as
there is plenty of it, and good feed it is.
There is plenty of game here that is
worth talking about. We are all well
at present. Yours Truly,
WILLIAM Mr-RRAY,
Formerly of Harpurhey.
What Brantford Thinks of
Huron Excursionists.
The Brantford Expositor, referrieggto-
the excursionists from Wingham -and
other parts of this county who visited -
that city on Thursday of last week, says:
Thursday was Wingha,m's civic holi-
day and her people seized the oppor-
tunity to visit Brantford and acquaint
themselves with the fascinating beauties
of the prettiest inland city in Canada.
The train pulled in at the Grand Trunk
depot shortly before 11 o'clock, where a
hundred or two citizens had assembled
to meet them; and among whom were
Mayor Heyd, Aldermen S. G. Read, A.
Spence, John Brown. G. W. Williams,
A. K. Bunnell and other citizens anxious
to see that all were well and comfortably
bestowed. Four brass bands accom-
panied the excursionists, viz.: Wing -
ham, Kincardine, Seaforth and, Mitchell,
and these furnished music for the town
all day. The people soon were scatter-
ed ail over the city, and citizens every-
where were -pleased to contribute to their
pleasure. Some proceeded, to the parks,
while many sought the accommodation
and good square meals the hotels afford-
ed. The bands Were quartered under
the direction of Alderman Bunnell, as
follows: The Wingham band at the
American hotel, Kincardine band at the
Robinson Hall, Seaforth band at the
Bingham House and the Mitchell band
at the Woodbine hotel.
All along Market and Colborne streets
many residences and places-- of Inileiness ,Smagined. Dr. Hamilton, of , Atwood,
were decorated with flags And hunting was consulted who pronounced it a case
-or a profusion of flowers. of apoplexy.
Mr. 11. W. Cs Meyer, ex -Mayor of
Winghain, and a prominent barristet,.
superintended the arrangements for the,
excursionists, and made everything
pleasant for them in the- absence of Thisorship Mayer Neelands, who unfors
tunately was unable to be with the
party. ,,Many from other towns along
the Hee of route joined the happy party,
which was largely composed of young
people, and these did. the town m
proper style during the afternoon, some
attending a programme of games on
Recreation and Agricultural parks,
others shopping and Others visiting
friends. Some slight showers and the
t.hreatening appearance of the weather
Interfered somewhat with the perfect
enjoyment of the day, yet,- as a whole, Seaforth. 955tf
the excursion was a pleasant one, and
Brantford was heartily glad to meet
Wingham and hopes she will come again.
'NOTES.
A wag wants to know if Wingham is
no h a " fly " town ?
The north "countrie " is certainly
prolific of pretty girls. The town was
unusually full of them Thursday.
A hose ball match was played on Ag-
ricultural Park between a nine from
Wingham and the Cables, resulting in a
score of 5 to 3 in favor of the Cables.
The game was discontinued at the end
of the fourth innings because of rain.
