Other matters of importance were dealt with by the association in regard to fire pro- tection appliances, etc. The report of the licenses for the Pro- \vince shows that while their were 164 •liquor licenses in Huron in 1875, the number was reduced to 102 in 1892. and from 37 shop licences in 1875 the - num- ber dropped to 5 .in 1892. The amount received by the Ridings as their pro- portion of the licence fee was, East Huron, $926.19; South Huron, $245.02; ;Weet Huron, $2637.61. The annual meeting of the Grind he sociatson of Patrons of Industry, y following resolution was passed; "That whether a Patrol candidate has been nominated or not, members of the order shall not be permitted daring an election contest to support the candidature of any party candidate on a public plat- form but then every member shall re. gard it to be his duty on any platform or elsewhere to defend the Patons' platform and advocate the principles of the order." It is very doubtful if the patrons '{ he able to make all their members conform to the above resolu- tion. Guelph is talking municipal insur- ance, and at a recent meeting it was stated that the cost of insuring the city was about $75,000 per annum, "while the average loss in ten years would not amount to $5000 a year.

The habits of practical economy forced on the people of this conuntry -by the hard times will survive when prosperity corns again. Many people have learned to make a dollar go as far they used\ to find two able to go, be - ,cause the dollar was the only one they had, and it had to do. When they are more fortunate, they have two dollars where now they have one, it - is not likely that they will continue to live on the one, but a large part of the other will be put by. It is said that the post office officials are kept busy lust now looking after persons who attempt to prepay postage with stamps previously used.
