It is said that a redistribution will
,give Hamilton two members for the
• Legal Rouse,'' .The city may be enti-
tled tosit, but there. are members
enough in, the Douse already, andthere
'should be no increase anywhere.

Who now believe that protection can
increase the prices of grain, although
the .Conservative -papers: still try and
delude their, readers on the point, but
at, the.sanie time it is interesting to
note khat in January 16, 1874 (when Mr
;; ItIacXeuizie .was in power)_wheat was
selling at $1.34 a bushel.
The latest rumor is to the effect that
John Beacom, ex -deputy reeve of
Goderich township, will run in South
Huron, for the Local, as a Patron
candidate. Nothing would .please the
Liberals better than to have him do so,
.but the idea of John Beacom being a
"no politics" candidate is too absurd
for serious consideration.
The Appointment and Payment
of Registrars•.
In the Local House the ;other day,
Mr Wood, of North Hastings, asked
he Legislature to declare that the pay-
ment of Registrars by fees is unsatis-
factory, and that the appointment of
such officials should be by popular elec-
tion or by the municipal bodies. This
resolution brought on a warm debate,
in which Sir Oliver Mowat, Hon. G.W.
Ross and Mr W. R. Meredith took part.
The Governmer t defended the present
system, while Mr Meredith took the
opposite side. We have before ex-
pressed the opinion that in the case of
officials, we believe the fee system to
be the preferable one, and feel con-
vinced that the elector who thinks for
himself will fail to see either advantage
or justice in taxing the whole people
to pay's salary to an officer who serves
a ,,part of the people only. Thousands
of Canadians never enter a registry of-
-flee from the day of their birth to the
day of their death. They buy and sell
labor and goods, but they neither buy,
'nor sell, nor mortgage, nor own real-
estate, and therefore they have no busi-
ness to do with the Registrar of Deeds.
To this large class it will certainly seem
fair that those for whom the registrar
+works should alone pay the registrar.
If the emoluments of that official are
too large; if he gets from his customers
more than his work is worth, let the
fees be reduced or funded, but let his
pay be proportionate to the amount of
:*ork performed.
As for the mode of appointment, it
cannot be successfully argued that a
better class of men would be chosen by
popular election, or by the vote of a
county council, than is slow put in of-
fice by Government appointment.
The responsibility of a Government
appointed officer is greater than that
of the appointee of a county council,
whose members are changing every
year: Government inspection is . a
guard against defalcations or irregu-
larities in the office, and in order that
the inspection may be effective, the
Government must have the power to
dismiss as well as appoint.
The discussion of this subject will do
good, but we incline to the opinion
that by the time the discussion is end-
ed,most of the Patrons throughout the
Province will be themselves convinced
that the present system of payment
and of appointment is better than the
one proposed to substitute for it.
The Liberal Victory in Nova
Scotia.
The Nova Scotia Local elections came
off on Thursday, and the Liberals were
again victorious, carrying 24 out of 38
Beats. The Conservatives won six or
eight seats formerly held by the Liber-
als, but on the other hand the Liberals
won four seats held in the last legisla-
ture by Conservatives. , ,An offset to
the reduction in the majority of the
Liberals is the defeat of Mr Cahan,
the ' leader of the Opposition,
and also of his lieutenant, Mr Webster,
While all the members of the govern-
ment, with the exception of one minis-
ter who held no portfolio, have been
elected. The issues of the cornpaign

That the present session of the »o'
bi4niauIloose is t,o be a lively One is,
evident by, the Metier *Which. the
Liberalii.'have. jumped into the debate
on the speech from the Thcbne:M r
Laurier made "an 4niir49e address,
bristl,inB with shafts of sar
c s
5ni;and
indisputable facts concerning, the true
kit ate' t'the c4ii%Utxy
He was followed by Sir John Tiiomp-
eon, who, in an able speech, deflnded
the attitude of the government.
Two off the best speeches thereon
were Wade by the me;mb ars for. East
and South Huron, and briefly alluding
too them the Globe says.: •-"
"Dr. Macdonald, of Huron, who
n-ade a strong arraignment of the Gov-
ernment, Mr McMillan, of Huron, in
his own vigorous way, challenged the
attitude of the Administration to-
wards the farmersand workingmen,
and ridiculed the advice given, by the
Minister of Agriculture to the people_
of the Northwest, to work out their
own salvation by going hi for mixed
.farming."
We venture to say that there are
few members of the House more thor-
oughly conversant with the trade
question than these two representa-
tives. Mr McMillan, in particular, from
a farmer's standpoint, being thorough-
ly conversant with all the details that
bear upon their condition.
Whether the government was un-
able to continue a defence along the
same lines, or simply wished the de-
bate to close is unknown, but it is
usual when a member has spoken on
one side that he shall be followed by
one on the other. This was not done,
however, on the present occasion, and
the debate was continued by several
Liberals without any reply.
Mr` Marten, the new member for
Winnipeg, made his maiden address,
and several of his points are worthy
of reproduction. He said:-
"It is well known by those in touch with
the condition of feeling in the Province
from, which I came that my return to this
House is a protest on behalf of the great
trade centre of that great country, and not
only of Manitoba but of the Territories also,
against the national policy to which I have
been referring. The Conservatives of Win-
nipeg many of them voted for me as a pro-
test, while still retaining there Conserva-
tive, principals, and still anxious that the
destinies of Canada should be controlled by
the Conservative party. But these persons,
strong Conservatives though they be, if the
Government persue the policy announed in
the speech from the throne, and refuse to
give the relief from their burdens which
they demand, are prepared when the great
conflict comes, to range themselves on the
side of the free traders and those who be-
lieve in a tariff for revenue; they are ready
to abandon their political friends and stand
up for their Province and their pockets.
The•Premier seems not to have the expli-
cit information about the affairs of Mani-
toba and the Territories which as Premier
he might be supposed to have. He referr-
ed to my election, and, while saying in a
bragging manner to his majority that he
could afford a few Beats, a Winnipeg here
and there over the country, still he seemed
to be under the Impression that instead of
a protest against the tariff it was an endor-
sation of me personally for my connection
with the Manitoba School act. I wish to.
say to the hon. gentlemen that during my
election the Manitoba school act was never
mentioncd by me. So, if the hon. gentle-
man (Sir John Thompson) hada idea that
ray election was an endorsation of me for
any service I performed in that relation he
is utterly mistaken. I say it, and say it
with pride, that a large number of those
people who did in the past give a strenu-
ous opposition tome on the Separate School
question, gave me their support when it
became a question of opposing the National
Policy. The hon. gentleman, in taking this
view, indulged in some remarks which I
confess I am scarcely able to understand.
He was good enough to christen me with a
name. He was good enough to refer to the
color of both sides 6f my coat. I' have said
I am at some difficulty in following the
hon. gentleman's meaning; but, then, I
have not had the same experience; Mr
Speaker, as the hon gentleman in turning
my coat. While I am not ashamed of my
position as a Protestant, I adhere to my
position, that
p I came here not to discuss
questions of religion -I came prepared to
fight the battles of Liberalism, along with
eery man who takes the same stand, and
I will not inquire what hie religion is. Tho
hon. gentleman seems to think be and hie
party should have a monopoly in the way
of blending the green and orange. I notice
in the newspapers that the Controller of
Customs and the Minister of Trade and
Commerce -whether they are yellow I will
not stop to inquire -but I notice they are
going to speak at an Orange meeting to-
morrow. Yet he thinks he can throw the
epithet at me of "Yellow Martin," and he
still keeps these Orange birds in his Cabi•
net. He sends them around to get the
anti-Catholic and Orange vote, while he
himself undertakes to hunt np the Catho-
lic vote; although even in that respect,'if
we are to judge by the present attitude of his
Grace the Archbishop of St. Boniface, the
hon. First Minister, Mr Speaker, seems to
have fallen from place as the great Catho-
lic leader of his country. Well, Mr Speak-
er, I have been a good many years in poli-
tics, although not in the larger arena in
which I now find myself placed, but I can
say that never at any have I devoted my-
self to politics with more heart, with more
pride or with more certainty of success
than I do to -day, ranged ander the banner
of the hon. leader of the Opposition -and
the fact that that hon. gentleman differs
from me in religion is to me, under the cir-
cumstances, rather a source of pride and
pleasure, as giving me an opportunity of
showing that when I advocated the aboli-
tion of Separate Schools in Manitoba I did
so not as a religious pleasure but because I
am firmly convinced that it is no part of
the business of the state to interfere with
questions of religion, but that the wisest
bourse is to leave individuals to follow their
own bent. When it comes to great ques-
tions of politics it was no reason why, be-
cause certain Roman Catholics support the
hon„ gentleman, I should not support
(him
-and hope, Mr Speaker, that they will
not beholder
that because 1, with my re•
cord end differing from them in religion,
am a Liberal, standing shoulder to Should-
er, with 0100, thin, til;calci not stand 1nybC•

The Y. P. S. 0. E. of Willis Church,
held a social in the lecture room of the
church on Tuesday evening; the object
being to promote the social interests
of the society, that the membersmight
become better acquainted with each
other. The verdict of everyone pre-
sent was that a must entertaining
evening was spent. A special feature
on the program was a contest in
geography; each member was asked to
wear a badge or device representing
the name of some place in the Domin-
ion, and half nn hour was spent in
guessing the names represented.
Great ingenuity was displayed in many
of the badges, and the contest was the
occasion of an immense amount of in-
nocent amusement. After partaking
of coffee and cake, there was a display
of eloquence on the part of some pre-
sent in an impromptu debate upon the
question: Resolved that a good-natur-
ed untidy woman is better than a cross
tidy one. The other items ,on the pro-
gram were an organ solo by Mr Yel-
lowlees, a solo by Mr Salding, and an
instrumental duet byMessrsEmmerton
and Taylor.

The conviction of Willian Walter Mac-
Wherrell, tried before Judge Ferguson at
Brampton for the murder of James Will-
iams and his wife, was expected by those
who followed the reports of the evidence,
which left no room for doubt as to the
man's guilt. John Edward Walker, su-
spected of being an accomplice, got the
benefit of the doubt and was declared not
guilty of the murder of James Williams,
though he will be held for trial on the
charge of killingMre Williams. MaoWher-

sympathy by his remarks, but showed
plainly that he is not the stuff of which
either heroes or martyrs are made. The

In every house in this town there was
distributed this week little yellow books
and circulars containing some really won-
derful cures which have been accomplished
by that marvellous liquid known as Wil-
liam's Royal Crown Remedy. We would
direct our reader's attention to their oases
in particular, and al.k their careful perusal,
and if they know any friends similarly af-
fected, to send them the circulars. You
may save their life like Miss Roxie Morden
did:
1. That of Mr John Weir, of Birr, whom
four physicians declared could not live over
twenty-four hours. That was in 1892; he
took three bottles of William's Royal Crown
Remedy, and to -day he is as well as can be.
Read the history of his case and you will
say she was the means of saving his life.
2. Mr H. F. Hallands, formerly of Mit
-
obeli, but now proprietor of King's Roller
Mills, Ingersoll, whom all the town knows
suffered from rheumatism.
• Also the sworn testimony of "a loving
wife,” Mrs Sarah Hall, of Brantford, who
deceived her husband by pouring out the
doctor's medioine, and surely rayed
his life by giving him William's Royal
Crown in the doctor's bottle so as to dis-
guise it. These are three of the most won-
derful aures ever effected and well worthy
perusal, and we oan vouch for the truth of
all of them. This Remedy should always
