FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 5, 1892
South Huron Liberals.
The annual meeting of the Reform
Association of South ,Huron—as con-
stituted for Dominion purposes—will
be held in Dixon's Hall, Brucefield, cti)
Saturday, 13th inst., at 1 o'clock p.m.
It is desirable that there be a large
representative of the Liberals of the
Riding, as there is important business
to transact.
The connnittee 011 by-laws will meet
4 at 10 a.m. of the same day. •
Liberals and Conservatives in West
Huron will be wearing war -paint for a
little while now.
Mr Haggart has been formally noti-
fied that when parliament meets, a re-
quest will be made for an investigation
into Section B scandal, with which his
name has been associated.
The Star mentions that the editor of
the Wingham Advance was. in Gode-
rich for the first, time, last week. Well,
--it-looks ex-eellentjudg -
men t in keeping out of such an unde-
sirable locality as long as he did.
Amajority of the Coun ty Councillors,
at the last meeting, voted down a pro-
position to place a sum in the estimates
for a County HOtnie of Refuge. We
hope they will soon see their folly, for
such a thing is a .disgrace to a county
like this.
When the deputation waited upon
Hon. John Dryden, the other day, and
asked for an additional grant towards
the agricultural societies, he told them
it would be better if some of the societ
ties would amalgamate. and he was
right.
On the 30th of June last the gross
debt of the, Dominion was $389899,229,
the highest figure it hat yet reached.
In the twelve months ending on the
date mentioned the debt was increased
by $3,787,934. Of the net debt $188,-
040.33 is payable- in London, and the
interest upon this enormous sum nuist
be sent, across the Atlantic every yea..
The payment of such a large amount
annually constitutes a heavy drain
upon the Dominion's earnings.
This is what the Toronto News (Con-
servative, has to say about the elec-
tions last Thursday :—
"Premier Abbott may learn two les-
sons from yesterday's contest,. First,
that his cabinet reconstruction is a
public dis'appointment, rather than a
stimulant to enthusiasm; and, secondly,
'that a more vigorous trade policy is
demanded by the people. Such dead
timber as Chapleau, Caron and Dewd-
ney must be got rid of, and able men,
such as Curran, Angers and Meredith.
taken in. A vigorous effort, must also
be made to secure an enlarged market,
for our surplus products.

The Conservative Candidate in
West Huron.
At the Conservative 'Convention for
West Huron, on Wednesday, Hon J.C.
Patterson, the newly -appointed Secre-
tary of State, was chosen as the can-
didate. There were two reasons for
this choice, one being that there was
no local man strong enough to carry
the riding, the other, that Mr Patter-
son is without a seat,and it was thought
that with his prestige as a Cabinet
Minister and the influence of the Gov:.
ernment at his back, he might be able
to win back the seat. He will no doubt
be a strong opponent, and we do not
underestimate the forces that will be -
used to secure his election, but at the
same time,we doubthis ability to carry
the riding. At the last general elec-
tion he was defeated in his own con-
stituency, North Essex, by a majority
of 849. A man so badly beaten in a
riding that he had previously repre-
sented and was .to some extent person-
ally popular in, is handicapped in a new
constituency. Still, he will get the
general Co6ervative support, though
we could name Conservatives who de-
clare they will never vote for an out-
sider. Our Liberal f s, and th ose who
desire freedom of trade, should not al-
low any feelings of diffidence to 11111
them into fancied security; The ejec-
tion will be held before the 25th of
February, that is certain. Lt every
one who desires to see the riding re-
presented by a local man—one Who is
in direct touch with the people and in
sympathy with their wants, use their
best endeavors from this time forth, to
secure the return, by a large majority,
of the Liberal candidate.

meet necessary. expenses in connection
with the District Council. It was de-
cided to hold the next semi-annual ses-
sion in Hensall. .Mr J. H. Pyper, hav-
ing removed from the District, tender-

which was accepted.
The election of officers resulted as

for the active and zealous interest he
has taken in temperance work, more
particularly while connected with the
Council. The meeting then adjourned
to meet in Hensall, some time in June.
• District Meeting.
---
District Lodge, No. 24, I. 0. G. T.,
held a regular meeting in the Temper-
ance Hall, Wingham, on Tuesday.
There were a large number of delegates
present. The reports of the delegates t
showed that the lodges are in a healthy
condition, and the prospects of increas- t
ing the membership very bright.
Ther e had been an increase of mem er-
ship of upwards of 50 in the district.
since last meeting, four months ago,
and the Treasurer's report showed that
there was a considerable fund on hand
for temperance campaign work. The
Executive Committee was instructed
to push the work of organization with
vigor. The district Superintendent of
Juvenile Teniplers, Mr F, Metcalf re-
ported four temples in the district, lo-
cated Seaforth, Blyth, 13elgrave and
Wingham. Several interesting dis-
cussions look place concerning the in-
ternal work of the order. It was de-
cided that the next meeting of the
District Lodge be held in Blyth, on
Friday. the 20th of May next.
The County Council.
Last week we gave the proceedings
u to Wednesday noon, and below is
given a summary of the business trans-
acted at the subsequent sittings of the
Council. The usual grant of $300 was
made, to be divided up among the duly
organized township and horticultural
societies. The County Engineer was
structed to examine Graham's bridge,
olborne, and report at June meeting.
A resolution, to raise $8,000 for a House
of Refuge, moved by Mr Proudfoot,
and seconded by Mr McIntosh, was re-
ferred to the Executive Committee,
but, lost on a division afterwards. The
Council appointed R. Radcliffe county
auditor, and the Warden appointed J.
C. Morrison, of McKillop, as the second .
auditor. Messrs Ratz, Kaine, Mooney,
Milne and Eilber were appointed to
confer with the Ontario Drainage Com
mission, and suggest what improve-
ments to the drainage laws they think
necessary.
A motion that two reeves from north
of the Huron road visit all the town -
'ships south of that road, and that two
reeves from the south do the same to-
wards the north, for the purpose of ex-
amining these townships, and -to give
evidence before the equalization Com-
mittee at the June meeting, for the
purpose of better guidance in equaliz-
ing the rolls, was defeated.
Moved by Mr Milne, seconded by Mr
Ratz, that in the opinion of this Council
the tendency of school legislation has
been to build up High Schools and Col-
legiate Institutes, to the detriment of
the „ublic Schools, and that no public
money should be expended for school
purposes, except for common schools,
and we recommend that such le Yisla,-
tion he enacted as will make the com-
mon schools qs,efficient as possible.
In reference to a foot -bridge asked
for at Wingham, a committee was ap-
pointed to confer with the Solicitor to
see if the county was esponsible for it,
and if so, the bridge to be put on the
list of county bridges.
At the October meeting the Treasur-
er asked for anincrease of salary, which
was referred to a special committee to
investigate an d report upon. This
committee found that in proportion to
other counties,•the_salary of Dr Holmes
sclbw, and recommended that it be
increased to $1,500, providing he find
additional security, A good deal of
time was taken up in discussing this
matter; a motion to make the salary
$1,200, same as hitherto,.wa,s lost, and
an amendment, to make the salary
$1,350—while he is handling the sink-
ing fund of the county—was passed.
REPORT OF SPECIAL COMMITTEE a
The committee reconnnended that
the Council co-operate with other c
Councils in regard to space for cattle fi
on shipboard. That no action be tak-
en in reference to the petition asking
the amendment of the existing school
law, which permits the existence of g
union high and public school boards.
That no action be taken in reference
to the Torrens system of land transfer.
REPORT OF EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE
The committee recommended that
the usual grant of $10 be made to a
Prisoners Art Association. In refer- $
once to a motion that $8,000 be appro-
priated t
for a House of Refuge, it was h
recommended that no action be taken. t
The usual grant of $25 each to be made a
to the East and West 1/1uron Teachers' T
Associations. That the request of c
Wingham Horticultural Society, for a m
portion of the county grant, be not h
recognized. That the county printing n
be awarded to 1'. G. Neelin-.-(the Sea- rs
forth Sun and Wingham Times were n
the only offices that tendered.) The s
salary of the Treasurer was increased t
to $1,350 a year, while he is handling s
the Sinking Funds of the county, he h
o provide security to the extent of
$50,000. The Treasurer was instructed
o allow no member of the Council or
other person, to know to whom loans
of money are made from county funds.
In reference to the application from
the several high school boards in the
county for the proliortionate cost of
the maintenance of county pupils at-
tending the respective High Schools,
the committee recommended that they
are to be paid the following sums (less
the fees received by them) Goclerich,
5828.87; Clint on, $750.59; Seaforth,
$937.06.
It was decided to offer the town of
Goderich t he sum of $100 for the use of
the water and the electric light fur-
nished the county buildings.
PROPERTY COMMITTEE.
Several minor repairs were ordered
to the county buildings. The commit-
ee also reported finding the jail in first -
lass order. • "
EDUCATION COMMITTEE.
R.ecommemled that the reports of
le School Inspectors be printed in the
inutes, and that 500 copies be also
printed in pamphlet form. In refe-
rence to the request of Inspector Robb
hat one gold and two silver medals be
rovided for each inspectorate, to be
warded to pupils at the public school
riving1 it was decided that no action
e taken. The request of the Inspect -
• 10 visit some of their schools twice
e first half of the year, SO as to give
ore time to the Model Schools d nring
e second half, was grant0. on con-
dition that each school be visited at
least twice during the year. It was
decided to petition the Minister of
Education to make Zurich a centre for
the holding of High School entrance
examination -and to be in connection
with Gode • High School. George
Connor was appointed county student
at the Guelph Agricultural College, he
having made application the previous
year. It was recommended that no
large amounts be this year expended
for school purposes, except for common
schools, also that such legislation be
enacted as will make them as efficient
as possible.
ROAD AND BRIDGE COMMITTEE
A grant of moo° for boundary line
purposes was triode. ,A new wooden
bridge to be built over the Aux Sable
between Stephen and McGillivary.
The Coldar bridge, on north gravel
road, McKillop, to be assumed by the
county. The tender of Mr Hardy for
Crediton bridge, $530; and the one for
bridge on Hay and Stephen boundary,
$200; were accepted. Tender of R.
Lang, 5614. for Day's bridge, Wroxet-
er, was accepted. No grant was made
towards the erection of a foot bridge
on the site of Graham's old bridge;
Wingham. The road commissioners
travelling expenses in the year 1891
were $-WO.
ROAD AND BRIDGE INSPECTOR'S REPORT
The report Of Mr Ainsley covered a
lot of items of work that had been done
in different parts of the county, with
the cost of same, of no general interest
to the public and for that reason is
omitted.
REPORT OF' INSPECTOR ROBB.
The report of Mr Robb covered 18
pages of foolscap, dealing in detail with
the various matters coming under his
control, but war t of space compels us
to simply summarize the report. He
visited every school in his inspectorate
once during each half year, spending
half a day in each department of the
school. He thought it would be better
if they could spend more time with the
Modelites, so as to become better ac-
quainted with the future teachers, and
also to give them all the assistance
possible. There arq 83 rural and village
schools in the inspectorate, employing
q-
98 teachers -63 males and 35 females—
of which there were 55 changes during
the year. The average length of ser-
vice of a teacher in a section is two
years. The continual change of teach-
ers is the worst evil of our school sys-
tem. The second evil is irregularity
of attendance. The names enrolled in
the rural schools were 5981, the average
attendance was but 3089. In percent-
ge of attendance in rural schools,
Tiickersmith stands first and Gray se-
ond. In villages, Wroxeter stands
rst, with an attendance of 63 per cent.
35 teachers have 2nd class certificates;
54 thirds; 34 have attended the Normal.
Next to Middlesex, Huron has the
reatest number of teachers holding
seconds. The discipline and order in
the schools are very good. Only about
half the schools hold public examina-
tions, which is poor policy on the part
of the teacher, and contrary to law.
Th rural schools the average salary of
male teacher is $388, of a female,
285. Hullett pays its male teachers
he highest average, $435, and Turn-
erry the lowest., $373. In female
eachers Tuckersmith pays the highest
verage, and Turnberry the lowest.
here is no school in Turnberry in
harge of a female, but one has a fe-
ale assistant. Few school sections
ave made any arrangements for the
ayment of salaries quarterly, which
a great hardship; iL there is not mo-
ey on hand to do this the trustees
hould borrow. About ten school sec -
ions pay their Secretary -Treasurer; all
hould do so, and he should look after
is work properly. There were 595
trees planted last year, No. 4, Tucker -
smith, planting 90; this school promises
to be the neatest in the township. The
Clinton Model School is doing excellent
work in training teachers, under the
management of Mr Lough, as was also
the Goderich school; Huron's Model
Schools are second to none in the Pro-
vince. It would be better if trustees
selected teachers from our owp Model
Schools, in preference to ta,kineioutsid-
ers, since the Inspector knows the
teaching ability of those in the county,
and could give them many useful hints.
Seaforth, Clinton and Wingham have
very prosperous schools. The average
tine of service in the Seaforth school
is eight and a half years, the highest
in the Province. VVingleam has the
best public school building in the coun-
ty. The staff of Clinton Public School
are all Normal School teachers but one.
A lot of interesting statistics are also
embodied in Mr R,obb's report, which
we shall try to find room for later on.
