GIBSON. SOUTH HURON, M. Y. McLEAN. WEST HURON, J. T. GARRO W. Ontario cannot afford to dis- miss Sir Oliver Mowat.—Princi- pal Grant. Such a Difference. A Liberal opening an attack on the Dominion Government would very probably r efer to the national debt, which now amounts to about $240,000,- 000 net. The leader of the Opposition has to apply himself to the task of reduc- g the surplus claimed by the Ontario Government. The difference in the methods and records of the two Admin- istrations is thus fairly well illustrated. The Dominion Government is habitu- ally put into an attitude of defence and apology. Criticism of the Ontario Government takes the form of detrac- tion. It is honest, say the critics, but that is no credit to it; every Govern- ment ought to be honest. Crisp County Clippings A. J. Lowick, of Tiverton, formerly of Brussels, had the misfortune to break his leg. After the meeting of the General Assembly, Rev. W. Perrie, of Wing - will go on a trip to the old country. Alden Whiteman, near Kippen, who got his arm broken a short time ago, is improving as well as can be expect- ed. Mr Robt. Mainprize, London, has pur- chased a site in Goderich, and will put in an aro electric light plant in that town in hort time. The first person born in the Huron ia _tract is rick, of Shakespeare, who ChristianMrs d both goesback to the year 1830. This week J. T. Pepper and family, of Brussels, removed to Woodstock where Mr Pepper recently purchased' a large drug business. Mr H. N. McTaggart, of Chiselhurst, sold his farm, farm stock and imple- in nts,.recently,, to his son-in-law, Mr - [Sir Oliver Mowat at London. At the Toronto prohibition conven- tion, the following candidates were in- dorsed:— Messrs Tait (Reformer), Lind- say (Reformer), Crawford (Conserva- tive), and, to a certain extent, John Armstrong (Conservative Labor can- didate). Mr Mallory, grand president of the Patrons, now says that the Patrons will have twenty members in the new Legislature; a few weeks ago the Pat- ron chiefs, were aseerting that they would have 30. Far away hills always look green. Scores of Reform Patrons in North Bruce, who are displeased with Mr Mc- Naughton's course in allying himself with the P.P.A., and denying that he had done so, until such convincing proof was forthcoming that he saw de- nial was of no avail, are returning to the Liberal party, and will pileup their votes for Mr McCannell, Mowat and honest government on June 26. The Executive Committee of the West Lambton Patrons have issued the following :—"Owing to want of or- ganization iu the northern townships and the shortness of time before the elections, we have decided to withdraw our candidate, Mr J. C.Wood, with his consent, from the election contest in West Lambtonl We challenge any one of the oppo- nents of Sir Oliver Mowat to show that Mr Meredith did not acquiesce in. every one of the regulations regarding sepa- rate school management that he now attacks. Is it precisely courageous on the part of our former fellow towns- man to try to evade responsibility for his own acts? The changes effected in no way injure the public schools, but if they did Mr Meredith would be as much responsible as anyone else.—Lon- don Advertiser. There is a general feeling that Sir John Thompson will retire before the next Federal election. This retirement, if it takes place, will be due to pressure from the ultra -Protestant wing of the party, and must result in sending the Catholic vote over to Laurier in a body. The Conservatives will probably be beaten next time anyway, but if they decapitate Sir John they will be anni- hilated.—Toronto News. BELIEF IN bra Boone --Distressing laid ney and Bladder diseases relieved in six hours by the "NEW GREAT SOIITH AMERICAN KIDNEY CURE." This. new remedy is a great surprise and delight to physicians on account of its exceeding promptness in re- lieving pain in the bladder, kidneys, back and every part of the urinary passages in male or female.

Eyre. - — _ Willie Millen, of Henfryn, under- went an operation on Saturday, by forehead plate a silver where it was fractured some time ago. At the annual meeting of the share- holders of the Exeter Salt Well Co., the oldBoard of Directors was elected, viz:—D. Mill, T. Coats, G. A. K. Mc- Leod; Thomas Fitton and T.B.Carling. Peter McIntosh, who pleaded guilty to sending a threatening letter to John Mason, of Blyth, was released on sus- pended sentence last Monday by Judge Toms, after having spent abouti,ten days in jail. A most promising young man of the township of Hullett has passed from this life. We refer to the death of Mr George Millson, third son of Mr David Millson, of Hullett, near Kinburn. He was a victim of consumption. Duncan McDonald, 2nd con. Grey, sold 19 head of three year old stock to Messrs Snell & Baker, recently. The total weight of the cattle was 24,800 pounds, an average of 1,305 pound per animal. Four and a half cents per pound was the price obtained. The finest lot of cattle ever shipped from Wingham left there on Monday morning. There were in all 109 head, and they averaged over 1400 pounds each, and at tif cents per pound, the purchaser, Mr D. Stewart, must have distributed over $6,500 amongst the farmers for this lot alone. Mrs Jas. Stretton, sr., of Morris, had a narrow escape from being drowned one day recently. While attempting to cross the river on a foot -bridge she accidentally fell into the water, which was quite deep. Had it not been for the timely assistance rendered by Mr Stretton and another gentleman, the result might have been serious. For- tunately she was none the worse of the sudden cold bath. The many friends of the publisher of this paper will be glad to hear that he is on a fair way to recovery. On Fri- day night it appeared as though am- putation of the right foot was the only thing that could save his life, but through skilled medical aid the foot ,was somewhat improved the next day. Blood -poisoning wasthe cause of the trouble. It will be some time yet, however, before he will be able to move around very freely.—Wingham Advance. A largely attended meeting of the creditors of Messrs McIntosh & McTag- gart, private bankers was held at the American Hotel,',Brussels, on Friday afternoon. Dr. McTaggart was pre- sent and gave a lucid account of the business and the outlook for the future. We understand there are $6000 of out- standing accounts, some of which will be collected through the Courts. The business management will be left in A. Cousley's hands, who has so satisfac- torily conducted the arrangements in the past, and it is expected another make the paid 85 oor 871 cents nd will like1 on the dollar. total Parliament, and therefore the Patrons should have reserved their strength to aid in carrying out a reform of 'the tariff. The present course of their leaders tends to strengthen the hold of protectionism, by weakening those who are opposed to it.—Stratford Bea- con. Hon. Mackenzie Bawell, leader of the Government forces in the Senate, is a Tory of the Tories, and a leading Orangeman, but he draws the line at the P.P.A. He said recently that "any man who would propose to abolish separate schools in Ontario, or suggest that Parliament should adopt an ad- dress to the Queen for an amendment to the B. N. A. Act, with that object, would be an idiot or a madman. • Peter Ryan, in a letter defending himself from certain charges of Mr Mereditb, made a very good hit when he suggested to Mr Meredith, of London, and Mr Oliver Howland, of SouthToronto,that they should not be too hard upon office. holders. Mr Meredith's father was clerk of the Divis- ion Court in London under most favorable circumstances for himself, for his income (bee and interest) ran well up into the thousands, and after providing handsomely for a large family he was able to leave be- quests to `Protestant and Catholio chari- ties. Mr Howland's father occupied Gov- ernment House (which Mr Meredith now wants to abolish) for a term, with the us- ual $10,000 a year and perquisites, and the son ate Government ham with as much relish as any other Godernor's son. During 1893 Ontario realized the handsome sum of $379,896.79, as inte- rest on her investments, while her less fortunate sister, the Province of Que- bec, paid in interest and charges on her public debt no less a sum than $1,- 445,031.34. Quebec started with a clean sheet in 1867, and she has since piled up a debt of $25,000,000. Ontario, libe- ral as her expenditures have been, out of surplus revenues, has accumulated in the same time a surplus of $6,135,480, a difference of thirty-one millions of dollars. The Patrons of Industry in various parts of the Province are in rebellion against the command of their leaders to sacrifice the Liberal party in Ontario to the ambitions of the order. They recognize that as farmers they have little to gain and much to lose by tak- ing up an attitude of hostility to the Mowat Government, against which they have no substantial grievance. The main reason for the existence of the Patrons here, as in the United States, is the heavy burden of taxation THE LADIES. The pleasant effect and perfect safety with which ladies may use the California liquid laxative, Syrup of Tf s g ! under all Conditions, makes it their favoriteremedy.

NO MAY $E WORTH REMEMBERING. — Drivers should remember that a man who wants to go faster than they do has a right to pass him on the road. It he is prevented by the other and an acci- dent happens because of the latter's interference, the obstructionist is re- sponsible for the damage. No man in the eyes of the law has a right to in- fringe on the rights of his neighbor or check the latter in passing. He is, in fact, obliged to assist him in passing. There are a large number of people in every community who do not seem to appreciate this fact. . Riders on bicycles are also entitled to half the road. If compelled to turn out in rough places, they are likely to break their wheels, and in that case would have a good action for damages. THE CLERK FAINTED.—A very mod- est and absent minded young lady went into a store in a neighboring vil- lage for some flour. She gave the clerk what she thought was a neatly folded and ironed pillow slip. The clerk un- consciously emptied one scoop of flour in and it went right thuough to the floor. Just then the horrifying dis- covery was made that what had been taken for a dainty little sack had two outlets, and each outlet was trimmed with embroidery. The clerk fainted and has been in that condition ever since. The Empire accuses the Mowat Governi ment of grossly neglecting agricultural in. terests, and says the farmers are in revolt everywhere, lintent upon putting the gov- ernment down. This is not the way the Star reads the Patron movement. We be- lieve the grievance of the Patrons is not that the Government has neglected to fos- ter the growing of crops or the raising of stook, or that the farmers have been ie. nored more than other classes, except, per- haps, the professions; Patrons' desires seems to be a reformation of the office hold. ing system and a more economical govern- ment generally. The Patrons express no desire for specific legislation in behalf of agriculture. Another point we notice in the Patron platform is that the order cares not what party is in power so long as the legislation is in the general interests of economy and the province, and if the far- mers' orgaization could secure sufficient re- presentations to secure the reforms it ad- vocates, it would as soon see Sir Oliver at the head of theGovernment as Mr Mere- diih.—Toronto Star. Mr Meredith and his immediate col:, leagues have developed an amazing energy, striokingly in contrast with the list- less conduct of past campaigns, and they are putting up a great fight this time. But all the fight does not emanate fr the Conservatives, for the Patrons are stir- ring up the Province and to their energy may be credited the shaking of the dry bones of the Opposition ranks. The oppo- sition to the Government is not all confined to the Conservetive party and the great in- dependent element, the farmers, will not assimilate with the Meredith ranks any more than, perhaps not so much, as with the Liberals. The Government's strength lies in the fact that it hes opposed to it many, elements which will not unite. Sir his unquestionably Oliver and q y able lieut- enants can and are battling hard,and have their -record om hich-to-fi ht I-beaten * they will know that their opponents are not likely to long parry on a Government, if indeed they can form one. while if the Liberals are returned by ever so small a majority they will receive sufficient sup. port from the independents to enable them to retain office. This is the situation to- day, though it may change before election day.—Toronto Star. A meeting of the local association of the Patrons of Industry was held in the North Dumfries township hall, last Thursday night. The attendance was good. After the usual routine Of busi- ness was done, the following resolution was carried by an overwhelming ma- jo ty :—"That, whereas the Grand As: solation of the Patrons of Industry, at a recent meeting, have constituted the Patrons of Industry a' close politi- cal party, in defiance of the constitu- tion (see article 1, last clause); and, whereas at the same meeting the Grand Association threatened with ex- pulsion from the order all Patrons who will not give their vote and influence to the Patron nominee, thereby at- tempting to control the vote and con- science of members of the order, there- fore, resolved, that this subordinate association of Patrons of Industry hereby protest against such action of the Grand Association as being arbi- trary, unjust. and contrary to the spirit of British freedom, and we here- by declare that we will not be hound by such legislation, but will maintain our right to judge for ourselves in all matters." Mr Alex.Wood, the oldest Patron in Oxford, says :—"I am a Patron, and I have always been willing to maintain the principles of our order, but I have never considered myself bound, and I will not be bound. to turn my back upon Sir Oliver Mowat in the present contest. I do not claim to be in exact accord with every part of Sir Oliver's policy, but my intelligence is at least great enough to appreciate good gov- ernment wherever I find it, and, taking it all in all, I regard it as the best we have ever seen in Canada.

No political party in Canada ever sought thus to "boss" and "bully" its supporters. Perhaps the editor of the Farmers Sun will now place my name in the black list along with Mr Joseph Stratford, the presi- dent of the county of Brant association, a gentleman who has done heroic ser- vice for the Patrons of Ontario, and who is (in the Farmer's Sun of May 15) accused of being a partisan. Well, let it, he so. We are in good company, Mr Stratford. The list of good Patrons who refuse to oppose parliamentarians who have done all in their power for the farmers is swelling every day, and nothing so much tends to add to its number as the foolish attempt of some of our leaders to muzzle and chain their followers."
