' ' • About the time of the close of the Russian war young Campbell l ecalue weary _of the life of a clerk, and tak- ing a second class certificate, began to teach school. In June, 1854, he obtained a second class grade A. Certificate at the Normal school, Tor- onto, and proceeded to Usborne, where he took charge of an important school. He afterwards taught in Blenheim, re- ceiving a salary of £100. Into the work of temperance refer" the young teach- er threw himself with heart and soul, and he soon revealed that he was pos- sessed of unusual ability for platform discussion. * * * He began to read- medicine in the office of Dt. Phil- ip of Plattsville, now of Brantford. After teaching two years at Blenheim, during which period he devotee. all his spare hours to reading medicine. he entered McGill Medical College in 1836, and graduated therefrom in the spring of 18.34. He had to leave college to- wards the end of the second term ow- ing to break -down of his health. ` • ' Plenty of outing. relaxation of study, &c., soon brought him to good health again. He was opal gradua- tion, elected valedictorian by the out- going class and was complimented all around for the excellence of the ad- dress delivered. At the request of many friends, the address has been republished in our subject's little volume "The Land of Burns." When he had obtained his diploma he went, to Seaforth, where he began practice, and has continued there ever since. * * ' He was a mem- her of the common school board in 1879, and a member of the common council in 1881. He resigned the first and vacated the last by going to the old country for the benefit of his health. In all efforts for the improve- ment of the town Dr. Campbell has taken a leading and intelligent part. He is a member of the High School Beard of Seaforth ; a vice-president of the Mechanics Institute. ` * He has travelled through the United States and Europe, visiting the great hospi- tals in both countries; and in 1832 took from the Edinburgh Medical Universi- ty the degree of the Royal College of Physicians. It was while in Europe for the purpose of obtaining the diplo- ma of the Edinburgh University that he made a loving tour through the land of Burns; and the result of his travels through Scotland we have giv- en to us in the delightful volume al- ready referred to. ` ° ' DAVID CANTELON The above gentleman is Deputy - Reeve of Clinton. He was horn in Goderich township in 1847, and became a resident of Clinton in 1873. He em- barked in the grocery and produce bus- iness in 1876 and continued in it for five . years when he sold out to V4'.: & P. Cantelon and devoted his attention to the shipment of fruit, particularly apples, commencing on a very small ' scale. Mr. Cantelon gradually extend- ed his business connection in the United States, N. W. Territories,, Man- itoba, and Great Britain, itaa..liingdur- ing the last ten years 2ittrlll barrels annually on an average. Mr. Cantelon also is a very heavy shipper of live hogs. 1u municipal matters he has ever taken a deep Interest. Ile served as Councillor for St. George's ward for several years, aspired to the position of Reeve, but was defeated by the late Mr. McMurchie. On the latter's death Mr. Cantelon was elected Deputy - Reeve by acclamation last summer. Ile made a very favorable impression to the connty members and it is large- ly clue to himself and Mr. Kennedy that the Connty Council was prevailed upon to meet here this tveek.

B. 0. t'ieOPER. The illustration represents one of the youngest and most progressive con- tractors of the clay. Born in Queen's County, Ireland, in 186.1. he' was ap- prenticed to the carpentering and building business when a lad. He was regularly indentured and completed his ,apprentice. -hip iu Dublin. In 1883 Mr. Cooper emigrated to Canada and worked In Goderich for n year. His first work in Clinton was on the pres- ent splendid Ptesbyterian Church, under contractor Scott. The following Year he engaged with Mr. H. Stevens and finally bought his planing factory and hubiness. For three years the business was carried on ander the firm • name of Cooper & Swaffjeld, then Mr. Cooper took the business oyer to him- self. Tho factory was from time to titne enlarged and new machinery added, the business increasing as time went on. Of the many tenderers Mr. Cooper secured the contract for the present House of Refuge and success- fully completed it. The building, as it appears, in all respects speaks well for the contractor and his large staff of workmen,. During the past f i N. Cooppeer has erected a large quw�tbrqeMr of buildioge coating $83,001 4 all home De has employed, on au average thirty teen during the season. To his credit be it said, he started without (n44 and has sueeessfully combatted all the difficulties which one in such Circum- stances must meet, and has to the good all that energy, perseverance, and a - reeerve capita which assures still L The public gengtally doesn'tnovr when they success Just at the close of get the season Mr. Cooper's factory was destroyed by fire. 1n a few days the walls of a large new brick buildifng was erected, but fate decided otherwise and a severe wind storm brought the walls to the ground before the joist had -been placed. Nothing daunt, by break of day a gang of workmen were at. work cleaning away the debris, work again at commenced, and in few daysone of the most complete factories in estern Ontario will be established in Clinton. The machinery will all be up-to-date, and the capacity will double Mr. Cooper's previous output. The fact that a local man secured the contract for the House of Refuge has been a henetit to Clinton and vieinity, because a good portion of the money has been circulated here. Mr. Cooper has been a member of the Clinton (own Council for two years; the first year he was elected by acclamation, and last year was almost. the unanimous choice with four in the contest. Clinton could well afford to possess more young men of Mr. Cooper's progressive spirit, push and enterprise. [u Two. IN NORM ONTARIO.

Major McGillivray's work in the past In North Ontario. fighting against separ- ate school encroachments, was well known. He deprecated the efforts of some men to distort the Conservative candidate's position on the remedial order. Major Hughes gave an instance of Patron Brandon's duplicity in try - Ing to work a deal in North Ontario whereby the Conservative votes would go to the Grit candidate in the last election there_ The Trent Valley Canal and the great benefit it would be to North On- tario was touched on. In North Vic- toria there were at present 450 men working on the canal. As soon as the present section was finished the Cou- ehiching and Georgian Ray section would be commenced_ That would be probably next year. This great work wouldwouldcheapen the transportation of y farmers' produce and stock. Ever man's land which would be needed would be paid for as would also all land that would have to h•- flooded.

He ehought that the whole nati- onal trade question should not hang on a side issue like the remedial or- der.

He showed that Mr. Laurier met all difficulties with a uro- mise for "commissions-" He was not definite on any of the great questions before the people. Major McGillivray.McGillivray.should not be condemned because he refused to give up his liberty of con- science on the remeidal order question_ He should not be tied down to vote against the Government before he found out what that Government would do.
