Meetings have been held in McKillop
during the past week by both Milne
and Gibson. The former was assisted
by Jaines Watson, T. E. Hays and
Richard Common, and the latter by
,W. Doig, T. McMillan and Barney
O'Connel, the, famous! political acrobat
who in politics resembles the Irish-
man's flea: "Be jabers," said Pat, "its
a slippery little bashte; it jumps to the
right, and it jumps to the left, and at
last you get it etween your finger and
I, thumb and look for it, and it isn't
there." This is like Barney every
time.
Londesboro.
PoLITIos.---Mr. Connolly, the Patron,
had a meeting here last Saturday even-
ing, assisted by Mr. Gaunt. Mr. R.
Holmes, of Clinton, replied to Mr.
Gaunt and Mr. Connolly replied. He
demanded proof for the many reckless
assertions made by Holmes and the
latter referred to Mr. Garrow as his
authority. "Mr. Holmes," said Mr.
Connolly, "reminds me of the boy lead-
ing the bull; the hull finally mastered
the boy and a gentleman asked the boy
where he was going." "I don't know 1"
said the boy, "you had better ask the
bull." Mr. Garrow was leading Mr.
Holmes and as a result he was forced
into seven times seven awkward and
lying positions. Votes were converted
to Mr. Connolly's side.

The members and adherents of Bay-
field Road church were treated to a

The+ Methodist garden party held
here Iast Wednesday was a very suc-
cessful and enjoyable one. The ladies
and gentlemen of the congregation de-
serve credit for the bountiful and mag-
nificent tea provided and the good
arrangement of tables, platform, lights
and seating of the lawn. Much praise
is due the Clinton Brass Band for their
punctuality in being on hand in good
eine and for the admirable music,
a k Vocal and instrumental, which they
rendered. The attendance was large
and the behaviour just what it ought
faille orderly and respectful. The re-
eeijitsMwere gratifying, totaling over
fifty dollars.

The Acton Free Press says :—Rev .
J. E. Howell, M. A., riow of Goderich,
appointed by the recent Conference to
Acton, will commence his pastorate on
Sunday, 1st July. Mr. Howell is one
of the most prominent ministers in the
Church and has been honored by his
brethren in Guelph Conference with
election to the highest offices in their
power to bestow. In 1889 he was
elected to the Presidency of the Coni
ference. and the following year
was a delegate to the General Con-
ference, which honor was repeated
last week. As a pastor Rev. Mr.
Howell has had thirty years of unin-
terrupted success and has occupied
some of the beat charges in this and
Other Conferences. The church here is
to be congratulated upon his appoint-
ment to this pastorate. He will be a
very fitting successor to the excellent
pastors who have preceeded him, each
of whom for many successive terms,
with his own peculiar qualifications,
has succeeded in building up the cause
and leaving the church in a more pros-
perous condition than he found ft.
The new pastor will find a congrega-
tion united tend harmonious and, while
feeling keen regret at the removal of
Rev. Mr. Edge, they will be prepared to
extend to him a hearty welcome.

Mr. Weismiller has addressed several
meetings. in Sdttth Huron in German.
Of course he was talking to Germans.
Mr. McLean refuses to follow Me.
Weismiller and life is too short for him
to study up the German language.
Mr. Garrow's only hope for election
is that he may secur,e,_Conservative
votes. Conservatives cannot consis-
tently vote for the Mowat Governinent
and thus assist a party they are posi-
tively opposed to.
Mr. Garrow's seventeen Grit votes in
the House in one day will loose hint
many times seventeen former support-
ers next Tuesday. Four years was
ample time to prove his independence,
but failing to do so the people have
taken the matter into their own hands.
A combine for the benefit of the
legal fraternity seems to he quite pro-
per, but once the "moss -back" farm-
ers combine for a political purpose it is,
Mr. Garrow would have the people
believe, a specie of anarchy. Is Mr.
Garrow now INDEPENDENT ? Or is he
just to the farmers?
Dr. McDonald is stumping South
Huron in the interest of M. Y. Mc-
Lean. The doctor spoke at Zurich the
other night and several old-time Lib-
erals took him to task for not sticking
to facts. The result was that many
votes were converted to Mr. Weis -
miller's side.
Mr. M. Y. McLean waited until Tues-
day evening of last week, when he
endeavored to give Orangemen a black
eye. The battle ground was on the
outskirts of South Huron. Orange-
men will have their say at the ballot
box next Tuesday. Will they vote for
one who has slandered the Order and
an open enemy of the Institution ?
THE NE\.s-REcoun accepts the situa-
tipn. We support Mr. Connolly for
West Huron because the Patron policy
is a reflex of .the Conservative plat-
form; we support Mr. Milne for the
same reason—one an old-time Conser-
vative and the other an old-time Re-
former. We support Mr. Weismiller
because he is a Conservative and a
follower of W. R. Meredith.
A correspondent urges as a reason
why the electors of Bayfield should
support M. Y. McLean that he and his
family spend a week or two in Bay-
field in the summer. Next year his
visit can be made more pleasant. Mr.
Weismiller's proposed harbor improve-
ments will be of such great advantage
to visitors that M. Y. will doubtless be
induced to remain several months.
For this reason the electors should give
their solid vote to Mr. Weismiller.
Woodstock Times :—Mowat candi-
dates in the different ridings through-
out Ontario are promising no end of
works to be done if they are elected.
London, Strathroy and six or seven
other places etre. promised Normal
schools, asylumns, institutes, dairy sta-
tions, etc., which are nob neededand, of
which there is no intention of building.
But there are no gifts for Oxford. Her
representative in the Legislature
have always looked on the county as
a pocket borough.
CURRENT TOPICS.
Mr. Garrow dealt a good many hard
blows to the Patron Order last Wednes-
day evening, but we fancy the black
i eye will fall to the lot of Mr. Garrow
next Tuesday evening.
ex'The Toronto Star (Nowa) has the
following observations in regard to
north-western ridings :—
"The Patrons will carry Huron West.
Mr. Garrow, the member, is a lawyer,
and has always in the House favored
legislation which the Patrons oppose.
He has a4ainst him Mr, Connolly, a
Patron who certainly has no-piilitical
leanings. The fight will be close. .The
Riding is politically close, and Mr.
Garrow will be unsuccessful."
tErMr. Garrow is Now in favor of
abolishing Government House at some
FUTURE time. If sincere he would
have voted with the Opposition when
the natter carne up last session. He
has missed the golden opportunity to
put his ideas to practical use, because
he many never—no, never—go, back,
again ! The electors now clamor for
a genuine independent.
sarSaid the Patrons to Mowat, "You
are paying officials too much." "I don't
think so," said Little 01, "but I'll ask
them and find nut." And forthwith he
appointed a lot of men at good salaries
to go and make the inquiry 1 Mr. Mc-
Lean and Mr. Garrow favor the expen-
sive scheme to find out something the
Sir Oliver already knows, while the
people—the electors—foot the bill.
tTPatron Connolly, it is said, more
than "roasted" the Mayor of Clinton
at the Londesboro political meeting
last Saturday evening. The farmer,
candidate likened His Worship to the
newest invention, "i wind -mill run by
water," This was because Mr. Hohnes
accepted as gospel the assertions of
Mr. Garrow without a particle of proof
and because he required. so much water
to quench his thirst during or after
his address.
•
ietrAl. Y. McLean said last summer
that the Orangemen at the 12th July
celebration at Exeter,when the County
Master apologised for the absence of
Grand Master Wallace, "WE DoN'T
WANT HIMI" The assertion was false,
and no better proof is required than the
TWELVE HUNDRED electors who greet-
ed and cheered the Grand Master at
Exeter last Friday evening.
t 8 -Our town totem. says "Mr. J. T.
Garrow has proved himself a good,
faithful representative of a good gov-
ernment." No! No! He has proved
himself a faithful grit representative of
a bad grit government. When he
•'asks for support on his own merits
and those of the government of Sir
Oliver Mowat" he asks Conservatives
to vote for their worst enemy. Con-
servative electors, we trust, will not be
in the suicide business next Tuesday.
r rM. Y. McLean was last summer
up in arias against the Orange Society.
He singled out Grand Master Wallace,
Deputy E. F. Clarke and other tried
members and poured vitro. on their
devoted heads in this "Christian" style :
—"THANK GOD PROTESTANTISM NEEDS
NO SUCII DEFENDERS AND IT IS THE
DUTY. OL' EVERY TRUE PROTESTANT TO
PROTEST AGAINST ANY SUCH MEN BE-
ING ALLOWED -TO POSE AS CHAMPIONS
OF TIIE GRAND OLD CAUSE." And now
Mr. McLean is seeking, the votes of the
"rack and file." We await their
verdict.
On Aug. 11, 1893, Mr. M. Y. Mc-
Lean said :—"Every one of these, and
others we inight name, are professional
politicians—men who for years have
made their living mainly out of politics
and who but for politics would be hard
set to make a living and, every one of
whom, have reached their political
positions not through their own
abilities, but through their connection
.with the Orange Order." This referred
to officers and members of the Orange
Society. Mr. McLean in the face of
such solemn charges'has the audacity to
enter the political arena, as THE NEWS -
RECORD predicted at the time, and now
asks for the votes of the men he slander-
ed. They are not, we hope, after such
strange bed -fellows.
The Orange Incorporation.
MOWAT'S DOUBLE-DEALING ON THAT
ISSUE RECALLED.
In reply to a correspondent, it may
be stated that in 1873 the Ontario
Assembly passed a bill incorporating
the Orange Association, and among
those that voted for it was the Premier,
Mr. Mowat. To the surprise of every-
body, this bill was reserved, of course
on the Minister's recommendation.
His object was to throw upon the
Dominion Government the responsi-
bility of either assenting to the bill or
of rejecting it. Sir John Macdonald
refused to do either, but sent it back to
he dealt with at Toronto. Ont. Sess.
Papers, 1st 1874, No,19. The ingenious
trick devised by Mr. Mowat had failed,
and in 1879, when the Mackenzie gov-
ernment ruled at Ottawa, the several
Provincial Governments were inform-
ed that they must determine the ques-
tion of Orange incbrporation on their
own responsibility, thus guarding the
Dominion against a repetition of the
reservation stratagem. All the same
it remains true that Mr Mowat
courted the exercise of the veto upon
an act undoubtedly within the compet-
ence of the Ontario Legislature.

From rho Stellarton, N. 8•, Journal.
Faith dosen't conte to all by hearing.
With many seeing is believing. Many
When they read of what has been efYect•
-
ed in other parts of the country may ,
shake their heads with an incredulous
air. To satisfy such people it is neces-
sary to bring the matter home; to show
it to thein at their own doors. The
people of this country may not have
heard, or only know little about the
places where good .has been effected by
the use of the medicine, the name of
which is on everybody's lips, but they
have heard of Westville, the second
most populous town in the county, and
people far and near have heard of the
mining towns where in 73,twenty years
ago, over fifty lives were lost by an
explosion in a mine, and the people of
these provinces know it to -day as the
place from which they draw their sup-
ply of fuel. Hearing of a cure that had
been effected in Westville through the °
•agency of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, na,-
Journal reporter thought it slight be
of general interest to ascertain the par-
ticulars. So to Westville he went, and
called at the home of Mr/Thos. Mc-
Millan, who is known to every man,
woman and child in the place having
taken up his home there twenty years
ago. Mr. McMillan was not to be seen
at the time, unless our reporter sought
loin at a distance of between three and
four thousand feet under -ground, in
one of the deepest coal mines on the
continent, where he was at work.
Mss. McMillan was at home, however,
and when informed the object of the
reporter's visit, said she could give all.
the information necessary—and she
gave it freely. "Yes," she said, "Toils
was a very sick man, so sick that be -
was unable to work for eight months:
—a long time wasn't it ?" she said by -
way of a question. He had been sick
more or less for about ryear. He was,
like it great many miners who had to
work in poor air, troubled with the
asthma and indigestion. He couldn't
eat well and of course did not thrive -
He lost flesh gradually and at length'
became so weak that he was unable to .
work. After he bad been sick for
some months we read of Dr. Williams"
Pink Pills. We talked the matter
over and it was agreed to give the Pink
Pills a trial—and it was a blessing we
did. After he began to take the pills
he felt himself gradually gaining
strength. By degrees his appetite re-
turned and with it his strength, and by
the time he had taken six boxes he
considered himself a well man. At
this time he returned to his work ire
the mines, but he continued taking the.
Pink Pills for some time, to iiutke sure•
that the trouble was driven out of his.
system. He can now work steivdily•
and is as strong and healthy as he ever'
was. We are both so pleased with the.
great good this remedy did hint that
we never fail to recommend, it to any
sick acquaintances. This statement, is
simple fleets, and is voluntarily given
because my husband has been benefit-
ted by reading the statement of
another, and so someone else may be
benefitted by knowing what they have
done for him.
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are a specific
for all diseases arising from an impov-
erished condition of the blood or, a shat-
tered condition of the nervous forces
such as St. Vitus' dance, locomotor
ataxia, rheumatism, paralysis, sciatica,
the after effects of la grippe, loss of
