REITH.
I am. requested by Mr. Carole and
Mr. Steckle to state that my recom:
mendation, signed by them and others
was not for political purposes, but on
account of a very eesponsible position I
was to take about the first of March. I
am obliged to them for asking me to
make this explanation, as it shows the
recommendation was not given under
political excitement, and as it was given
to whom it may concern, it concerns
the electors to know all they can about
me, and I am only glad to be able to
give such names. And as some express-
ed themselves glad to sign it, I believe
they will all be more glad some day that
they had the privilege of signing it.
Yours Truly,
JOHN REITH.
Another Denial.
DEAR EXPOSITOR, -In the last issue
of your paper Mr. Reith makes use of
my name in a way never intended by
me. In explanation, I would say that I
gave the use of my name along with
• others for the purpose of assisting him
in getting a position he had in view at
the time. I certainly never'expected to
see my name used in its present con
nection and tacked on to the tail end of
a political address.
Yours Respectfully,
ALLAN DOUGLAS.

EDITOR EXPOSITOR,- YOU will please
insert the following letter of explanation
in this weekle issue of THE EXPOSITOR:
We, the undersigned Elders Of Carmel
Presbyterian church, Herman, take ex-
ception to the use that Mr. John Reith
is making of the certificate given to him
by us some time ago, and long before
anything was known o# the present
election contest. The facts are as fol-
lows, namely; At the time said certifi-
cate was solicited and given Mr. Reith
intended going to Michigan, United
States, to take the position of menaging
a large farm there, and as he wee a
stranger to the proprietor he solicited
ourncertifieate as to his standing here,
and fitness and ability for the position
desired, and we gave the same for the
express purpose of enabling him to
secure said position, and most certainly
NOT for electioneering purposes, as many
of the readers of THE EXPOSITOR have
and might suppose, seeing the certifi-
cate coupled tvith,or immediately follow-
ing, Mr. Reith's manifesto as published
in THE EXPOSITOR of last week, and
without note or comment as to the mani-
festo. We simply, in juatice to our-
selves, and to correct apy misunder-
standing, desire to insert this explana-
tion. -JAMES SUTHERLAND, ROBERT

Stanley Sabbath School
Convention.
The eighth annual • meeting of the
Stanley branch of the Sabbath School
Association began its sessions in the
Methodist church, Hills Green, on Tues-
day of last week, Mr. Wm. Keys,
President, in the chair. After singing
familiar pieces and reading of Scrip-
tures, prayer was offered by Messrs.
Jos. Foster and Thos. Wiley. The
President then delivered his annual ad-
dress, in which he spoke of the experi-
ence and interest he had in the work.
The good results and high position from
his personal knowledge which have been
attained by Sabbnah School scholars,
was greatly encouraging to him. The
address in all was very interesting and
appreciated, by the audience.' The re-
ports of Superintendentswere then read.
Five schools were reported as all being
in very good working order,. owing
chiefly to a good class of officers and
teachers, which were thought to be the
main requisites for a prosperous school.
The topic, "The.Bible's relation to so-
ciety," was then discussed. In the al),
Bence of. Rev. R. Henderson, Mr. Thos.
Wiley spoke first on the subject. Then
followed Rev. Jas. Walker, Jos. Foster,
II. J. Smith and the President, who
were all united in the opinion that
through the use of the Bible the arts
and sciences have become more deve-
loped. The Bible precedes or opens the
way to civilization and breaks the walla
of superstition. Without a knowledge
of the Bible we are unprepared . for the
duties of this world, and for a happy
home in the next. The subject, "Tem-
perance," was then introduced by the
President, after which Thos. Wiley,
Jas. Jarrott, Jos. Foster, Arthur Stev-
enson and II. J. Smith, all showed the
evils of intemperance in many ways, and
thought that temperance • principles
should be instilled into the young minds
at Sunday School, advocating the use of
temperance pleOge cards. A hymn was
'then sung, sed the meeting adjourned
until the afternoon session.

Hinging, after which Rev. H. Irvine and
