DFeel Exeostron. —As: we are now on the €vej ot a Dominion Election, win you kindly /rant me a small space jai Tour valuable and widely circulating paper to make a few remarks- with regard to Mr. Reith's eanditlature. . Mr. Iteith - says he is a leinsistent temperance -man. We will take his word far that and: give hire credit for the same. We want temperiince men in Parliament, that is, if theiF views are consistent on other question. in the next place Mr. Reith says Protestantismis in danger of being sacrific d for politics. Now Mr.- Editor this is question that it is needless for me to discuss at any length as the sub- ject has- been thoronghly _discussed by you the eugh the cohimns of THE EXPOS- ITOR, 4nd by many other gentlemen equally well qualified to give an : impar- tial jud:gment. and all have come . to the. conclusion that Protestantism is .not in danger , nor _is ever likely to be in dan- ger in tlhis eauntry, and that the cry was got up y unprincipled partisan's for the sake of party and political purposes. For my own part Sir, I do not see any consisOncy in Mr. Reith's adopting a cry that hedid his level best to defeat four weeks ago. Mr. Reith not only voted for Air. Bishop but caevassed. for that gentlernan, and that to iny mind was tantaneliunt to an . approval of Mr. Mowat' . policy„ against whom thecry was go . up. Those of us, Sir, whobe- lieve the 'Bible. believe in sudden Con- version to christanity, but we are rather rone to look with. some degree of suspicion on sadden - conversion on great p titical, questin LIA . But allowing Mr., Re th's conversion Itahe genuine (as of emir e we Must„ for we do not believe he wou d advocate what he does not be- lieve). 1 Reis surely not such a dolt as not to lino* that thiswhole question was sa#sfactorily settled an the 28th of December la.st, and the Dominion Gov- ernment has nothing to' do withit,. it being purely a local matter. Why then drag this question into. Dominion poli- tics, and endeavor to make it a living issue? If by thia means Mr: Reith thinks to place himself iet the top of the poli, on the 22nd of next month, he surely mist not give the free and inde- pendent electors of South Huron much credit f r their intelligence. Of coarse. Sir, in you are well aware, this cry is not nes , ; it is not of to -day or yester- day, bu it is to be regretted ' that from Utile te time„ men are found who for politica ' purposes, and :under the guise of pie -t .„ throw fire -brands of animosity among mixed and peaceable coramian- . ity. 1,ow Sir, as. I do not want to ' trespasI3 on your space but as little as poSsibh , I wilt conclude by giving three r( asons. why the electors of •South Huron :hauld not support Mr. Reith. The fir. t is that his abilities in no way , fit him for the position he aspires to,. In the . econd place the policy that Mr. - Reith dvocates (apart from the temper- ance qt estion) is not worthy of the sup port a any intelligent ratepayer. In - the third place we presume that Mr. Reith intends coming out as an inde- pendent candidate in as much as he states he is a Reformer but had adopted part of -the Conservative platform„there- fore hecannot claim any party, hence independent. .-Now Sir, this is the worst kind of a member any constitu- ency can invest in. It is very good in principle and it would be well if more independence was shown by members, but it is impossible: where there are two strong parties, for one, two- or even half -,a -dozen members topursue an in- dependent course. They soon find their position untenable and eventually sell themselves to the highest bidder. I also beg to state in conclusion- that ,I have nothing against Mr. Reith personally. I have merely as a ratepayer of South Huron expressed my opinion GU a public question. Yours truly,- - A LIBERA L.. IllommiLi January 26th, 1887. mosima _ e . _ — • - - ' , Comments on Mr..

Kealy to his -_,tingregation, con- cerning a letter of dohn. Reith's, which appeared in your .coluunis a week or two . ago. The reverend gentleman stated that he had never taken part in politics but as a, minister of God he considered it his duty to defend the rights of his people against the gross .injustice done them in .1. Reith's letter. Mr. ,Reith says, he is sure there are many Catholics who would throw off the "iron yoke of Rotee,e aild embrace the Protestant faith, were it not for the inconsistency of their 4 Protestant) Bible.. Is this gentleman aware that England threw off , this " iron yoke.".in t4 time of Henry the eighth, and that ever since English , society has been corrupted with all kinds of vices. Is he aware thatshe also tried Lo bring Ireland., that .pation which is remarkable for the purifty of her. sons and daughters,. down aS low as herself. 1 • is he aware that Napoleon ist threw off this " yoke - and then Iroained through : • Moscow . and Water* gnawing ,his , teeth in misery and despair for having done so. :Is he aware that Bismarck ' threw off this. same " yoke?" and, is now crawling and crouching at the feet Of the Pope in Rome. No, he is not aware of these facts otherwise he would not have cenunitted the error he did by pub- liehing tanik a letter.

It seems that a young man named George A. Elliott, son of Mr. Robert Elliott, was attending to the horses in the stable. His brother was with him , at the time. he brother no- ticed him fall down, and when he went to him he found him unconscious and immediately carried hiM to the house, but before he got him! in he was dead. A doctor was at once s nt for to Coder- ich, and on examinati n it was found that the breast bone hai been broken in and a piece of it had penetrated the heart, causing instant death. The young man must have been kicked by the horse at which he was working, although his brother, who was close ,by, failed to see it, and until the exanldnation thought death had occurred from some natural cause. He - was about, 30 years of age and was a steady, indueltrions man, and well thought of in the neighborhood. OKININIMMIN=IIMM=1 : To the ElectOrs of the South Riding of Huron.. GENTLESIEN,—I have been requested by many- of the Reformers of the South Riding of IOron, to allow myself to be brought out as a candidate to contest the said Riding in the in- terests -of the Reform party. I have always been a sincere and consistent Reformer, and believe that the principles advo- cated by the. old veteran Reformers, -Alexander Mackenzie and Blake, -are ,best calculated to ad- vance the interests -of this, My native land. I believe with the Hon. Edward Blake, that as soon as the country is ripe for such legislation, a prohibitory- liquor law should be passed. I be- lieve that es-ery citizen of o4r ybung .and grow- ing country should be allowed to worship God as his conscience dictates, and [will ever, from the bottom of my heart, encourage that Righteous- ness which exalteth a nation, and have no sym- pathy whatever with Agnosticism, or any other ism that interferes with the reiigious faith of ourselves or our children. I have always taken a deep interest in educe. - tion, and will still continue to do so. I believe in managing the affairs of the coma try with 'economy and honesty. As a native Canadian, I would like to sed our young and en- terprising country take a ptoud position among the nations of the earth, and if elected, will give her gifted son, the Hon. Edivard Blake, an hon - et, conseientioas and ardent support, and 1 will support all measures whichiI honestly believe are for the Welfare of the country. As a farrner's -son, and one who has helped to till thesoil in my youthful days, I will always take a deep interest in any measure that will ad- vance the "bone and sinew" of the country, and will be ready, with both voice and peneto aid the same. It is impessible to explain ' fully my principles in this short address, but will announce meet- ings at an early date, at which I will more fully discuss the issues of the day; I have to say that I will cheerfully resign • at any time, in the event of any of the Reform leaders being defeated, and will not require the gop. Edward Blake,or the Hon. Alex. Mackenzie. to come up to Huron to plead with me to do so. I have the Honor to he, Gentlemen, Your Hum- ble Servant, J. CAMPBELL, M: D. Szeienurn, February 3, 1887. To the Electors of the East Riding of Huron. • GENTLEMEN : It will be your privi- lege in a few days to elect a representa- tive to look after your interests • in the Federal Parliarrient. As you are aware, I am the Canctidate in the interest of the Liberal party. I take this oppor- tunity to respectfully solicit on my be- half, your votes and influence. I hope to be able to address the most of you from the platform, when I shall state my views upon the public .guestions of the day. I ask my friends to be active till the last vote is polled on the 22nd of next month. If this is done, there is no doubt Liberal principles shall be sustain- ed, and East Huron redeemed.

We have grown it now for two seasons. and have thoroughly • tested its good qualities and are now in a posi- tion to recommend it to our brother farmers as one of the best verities of six rowed barley ever introduced into the county of Huren. 1The points of superiority over the common variety are as follows: It grows longer and coarser straw and in regard to stiffness it is more like wheat straw than that of barley, consequently it stands up splendidly. It has a longer head, a larger grain, and will yield at the lowest calculation 10 bushels per acre more than the connnon variety of barley, besides it is recommended by the brewers as being equal to the common barley for their purposes. A sample of the said barley will be left at J. Brosvnell's grocery store, Sea - forth, for inspection. All orders sent by mail can be addressed to Brucefield or to Seaforth P. 0., which will receive prompt attention. R. & G. Brock, Mill Road, Tuekersmith. 999 Tenders for High School.
