Whether or not the statment is well founded we do not know. • At the present time, Inspector. Paisley in - Forms us, the town receives about $800 Prom the seven licenses. The town requires all the present revenue from this and other sources. With a cutting off licenses the lost revenue of course must be made up from the whole peo- )le. Clinton has now two hotels less han a few years ago. BURY THE H .TCHET,-Now that the lections are over citizens should bury he hatchet and work as united as Ivssible for the advancement of Clin- on. We have a town worth preserv- ng and 'further building up and a pull o ether will accomplish the most good. 111 the candidates, though they may lave differed in their opinions, were riendly contestants. It was necessary hat certain slanders should be straight- ned out. We regret that the necessity rose, but the good name of citizens Bust he protected. In a very short ime the municipal machinery will ioye along with regularity and ease. JUMPING UP. -Last and this week our circulation took a great big jump up. Fred W. Thompson, of Goderich town - hip, who is taking a course of the Chathom' Business College, ordered a opy of last week's NEWS -RECORD. The only way we can fill the order is o ask some kind subscriber to let us lave a copy for Mr. Thompson. Others desired to secure copies and even many new subscribers were disappoint - d. This week we Kaye printed 'enough and to spare," bat the indica- ions are that not a single copy will be eft. Continue the good work, kind riends.

Hi. age was 74 years. The deceased v of Ir' parentage and settled on -f near Slieppardton-where his pirit took flight -away back in the orties.

He will also answer questions: GIVE Us THE NEws.-Now and again visitors come and go and events transpire of which we do not know. To catch or learn of every important iters of news the would require to have a special reporter in almost every fami- ly in town. Citizens can assist us materially in gathering news if they will but give us a. hint. It would be a very easy matter to do so either per- sonally or by note. A local paper ie what the editor, citizens and business men make it. Give us the news. "HE's'invinLE ALL RIGHT," -So says Mayor elect Holmes. The gods of war seem' to have ruthlessly taken hold of his placid soul. First a correction for stating what he says was not true about Clinton Magistrates. Second an apol- ogyfor the publication of a gross libel letter reflecting on the good name of Deputy -Reeve Kennedy and Mr. D. Cantelon. Third, a revised edition of the same apology. with the name of,the alleged writer. „ Fourth, for publishing are item stating that some one had been charged with murder. The new Mayor of Clinton is surely having trouble all in a heap, And the end does not seem to he yet. The next apology, we hope, will not be because our friend has been foolish enough to run for Mayor. MR. R. B. FOSTER, of Clinton, who assisted in the Main street church choir on Sunday last, was the guest of Mr. John Morter while in town. - Mitchell Recorder. A NICE CALENDAR. -We are indebt- ed to the Acton Free Press for a hand- some calendar for 1894. The printing is just as neat and the composition as attractive as one should expect from a well equipped and regulated office like the Free Press. Tfut Blyth Standard says :-W. Powell, of,Clinton, was in town Mon- day. -Mr. and Mrs. Jas. McGill, spent New Year's with Mr. F. W. Watts, Clinton. -Miss Lizzie Magee who has been attending the Collegiate Institute at Clinton was awarded a ehird class certificate by the County Board of Examiners ter Huron. CONGRATULATIONS. - For several weeks congratulations have been thick and fast on our successful visit to medical experts. It seemed to us that the climax had been reached when a good friend last week congratulated the editor of THE NEws-RECORD be- cause he had lived to see 1894. Wheth- er the expresssion was merely the out- come of a New Year salute we do not just know, but rather incline to the belief that it was drawn forth on ac- count of the many dangers newspaper men' encounter. Another reason was probably because we are the only editor in this section who dares to do right and is allowed to roam the front streets at our own sweet will. PIONEER WILLIAM CANTELON.--One of the veteran pioneers who called on lis New Year's day and renewed their subscription to THE NEWS -RECORD was Mr. Wm. Cantelon, of .Holmes- ville. The old gentleman's first re- marks were that this was a Liberal -Con- servative journal of a very ,high order, well able to look after the hest interests of our own country and keep several other journals in their proper places. We have known Mr. Cantelon for for twelve or fifteen years. He is about 87 years of age and lays a just claim to being one of the oldest readers of THE NEWS -RECORD. Mr. Cantelon is a native of Tipperary, Ire- land, and settled in Toronto township in 1831. In the same year with others he became an Orangeman under war- rant 82 from the late Ogle R. Gowan. In 1832 Mr. Cantelon came west and settled on lot 27 and adjoining lot, Cut Road, one of which he still owns. At that time there was only a log house, Mr. Cantelon says, in Clinton, just where Combe's drug store now stands, and it was known as Vanderhurg's cor- ner, owned by Peter of the same name. Mr. Cantelon informs us that lie was one of the first settlers in Goderich township and led the way for many of the present,pioneers-Cantelons, Cooks, Sheppards, Coles, &c. At that time there were no Orange Lodges. Mr. Cantelon, Mr. Shaw and others organ- ized No. 153, now in Colborne. He re- lated the first Orange walk in Goder- ich and consequent prosecution. It was, he says, in 1833. There, was, of course, a stirring time. Flag poles were tirade of saplings and the flags and banners were without paint or even ornamentation. The walk took place. Arrests were threatened. Trials were to follow. But Orangeism tri- umphed amidst persecution, A chat with Mr. Cantelon proved of a very iv - tot eating nature. sold by us from year to year, not 0 INTM Coat of the entire number has turned out, or proved to be, in the slightest degree inferior to what it was represented to be by us.
