Concerning Pap.
During Conservative rule at Ottawa,
the Clinton NEW ERA and Seaforth
Expositor were continually finding
fault because some of the Tory papers
-occasionally contained a government
advertisement. We now almost week-
ly notice similar advertisements in the
papers above mentioned. Of course it
all depends upon who is receiving the
pap.—Exeter Times.
The Times is, hardly truthful in the
,Ioregoing, for if it has ' 'tired eovern-
``inent advertisements in the NEW ERA
"almost weekly" it has noticed what
never happened. Since the Liberals
came into power the NEW ERA has
published two government ads; one re-
ferred to mail contracts in this neigh-
borhood, and the other to Goderich
Harbor contracts—both local in the
same sense that an auction sale is, and
therefore deserving of wide local pub-
licity. Two small ads. in two years
hardly fills the term "almost weekly.".
The NEW ERA stands by what it said
when in Opposition. At that time
nearly all government ads., no matter
What their character or where they ap•
plied to, were published in most of 1 he
Conservative papers from Halifax to
Vancouver, many of whom had ac-
co'ints against the Government rang-
ing from $25 to $100 and more annually.
The NEW ERA objected to this promis-
cuous advertising. It does so yet, and
df the•Times wants to be honest about
the matter, it will admit that the Laur-
ier Government has inaugurated a;re-
'form in this respect, for instead of the
;;alis. of the Public Works Department
>;eii g�,ppearing in all the Liberal papers,
tY0y appeared in all the Conserva-
tfve•ones under the old regime, they
Clow appear in very few.
leg°stature to nieet Aug. 3.
.The Globe of Wednesday says:—"A
ari+amorandnm published to -day con-
eeys.. the important announcement
hat the Ontario Legislature has been
alummoned for August 3rd, and sets
Forth the reasons for this step. The
;llrst reason is connected with the ex-
i•eraordinary number of protests enter-
;d,against members -elect. These pro-
teste call in question the validity of
the elections in, no fewer than 65 con-
sBtlituencies, more than two-thirds of
'('base represented in the Legislature.
The trials have been fixed for various
dates extending into November. Un-
F4erthe law the Legislature must meet
"'before the 16th of January, and it is
•',ii�easonably certain that in a large por-
tion of cases the final decisions could
not be g:vvn and the new election held
before that date, so that the Legisla-
tewewould meet with a considerable
;'member of constituencies vacant. It
s considered to be important that
'When the Legislature assembles for

cannot proceed while the Legislature

clever young man and should make his
mark in the world.
Mr O'Brien, of Toronto, the well-known

sired to yisit friends in Dakota. He alio
purposed making a short stay in St. Paul,
and palling upon Ed. T. Holmes, late of
Clinton. Persons who are travelling through
St. Paul, can secure. Mr Holmes' address at
this office, and hew 11 ee�e. �n
°is fit e r service o a w o
ees
wish it.
His many friends here will regret to know
that George Hodgens, of the Palace, finds
it necessary to give up the dry goods busi-
ness. For some time he has been troubled
with catarrh, caused by a cold, and his con-
stitution has run down, and hie medical
adviser has ordered him to seek outside
employment in another climate. It it; prob-
able that he will go Weet. George is a
steady, industrious young man, and we re-
gret the necessity of his removal, trusting
that this change maybe as beneficial as an-
ticipated.
Mrs Pentland, of Ripley, was the guest
of Clinton friends for a short time on Mon-
day. She had been supplying the pulpit of
Victoria St. church, Goderich, on Sunday,
and is one of the few women who have the
ability to perform work of this nature.
Some people associate boldness and mascu-
linity with those of the weaker sex who at-
tempt any work of this nature, but Mrs
Pentland ie certainly not this sort of a per-
son, being so modest and ladylike that no-
thing can be said against her, while her
work is marked with a spirit of Christ -
likeness that is admirable. The mother of
a young family, she does not neglect her
home duties notwithstanding the tax that
is made upon her time.

Rev. W.Wade,who has been in the West
since spring, returned to town on Monday.
Hewes one of a party of thirteen who were
sent cut from Dakota to inspect Manitoba
and the Northwest, with a view to settle-
ment there, but unfortunately the condi-
tions in Manitoba are this year unfavorable,
Mr Wade says that with the exception of
the Souris, Mennonite and Morden distriote,
where the crops are fine, there will not be
more than half a crop in Manitoba, owing
to the lack of rain in the spring. In Mr
Wade's opinion the Manitoba farmers are
in fairly good oiroumstanoes, their draw-
backs notwithstanding, and the good crops
and prices last year will enable them to tide
over the shortage of this season. Mr Wade
says, further, that the bankers all through
the West report the farmers as becoming
more prosperous, liquidating their debts,
and having money to invent in better build-
ings or more land. He thinks the yield of
wheat will be about 14 bushels to tha sore,
hetst'ithetandieg the drouth, and considers
THE CLINTON NEW ERA
that in many essential respects Manitoba
has advantages over South Dakota,ae a de-
sirable place of eettlement. Mr Wade ex-
perts to remain here indefinitely,the health
of Mrs Wade being uncertain.
Master Hugh Grigg has gone on a visit
to relatives at St. Thomae.
Mies Robinson, of Mt.Foreet, is spending

of as a probable candidate for the Juno:
Judgeship of Wentworth. He is a nephery
of Mre Washington, of town,
Mt' Harry Fair and Mles Lou Ouimette
wheeled through from London to Londer-
boro, calling at St. Marys, Exeter and oth-
er places. Mr Fair states that the crops
through Middlesex are looking very fine,
the wheat crop being exceptionally heavy
and rather more advanced than in Huron.
In St. Marys he was shown through the
creamery, which is one of the largest in
Canada, churning from three thousand up-
wards pounds of butter per day. The pros-
pecte for fruit are average, apples, in some
places, being rather below, but plums and
pears over an average.
A mining congress was held at Denver,
on the 8th, and the Daily Tribune of that
city, speaking of the gathering, says:—
"Oratorically, the gem of the whole con-
gress, was the speech by Thomas W. Gib.
son, the relegate from Toronto. Mr Gib-
son introduced hie talk on the mineral
wealth of his Province with a reference to
the sympathy of Canada for the United
States in its battles for the extension of
human liberty. Before he had got far in
this vein, the delegates awoke to the fact
that they were hearing the one eloquent
speech of the day, and the applause that
followed almost every period amounted to
an ovation. After the adjournment, many
of the delegates shook hands with Mr Gib -
sou and congratulated him on his speech.”
Mr Gibson is a native of Wroxeter, and
nephew of T. Gibson, the late member for
East Huron.
Battle of the Boyne.
AT BLYTH.
The battle of the Boyne was right
loyally celebrated at Blyth, by the Or-
angemen of North Huron District, on
Tuesday, ,there being nearly eight
thousand people and twenty-five colors
represented. The fife and drum band
from Brussels, with their clever drum
major, were admired by all. The
Auburn and Clinton brass bands were
also in the procession, and added much
to the day's proceedings. Addresses
were delivered by clergymen and oth-
ers. During the day a very exciting
base hall match was played between
the Brussels and Wingham . clubs, re-
sulting in favor of Wingham. Score,
Wingham 16, Brussels 13.

was fine and an enormous crowd gath-
ered in the town. Twenty-five lodges,
with various bands, formed into pro-
cession and marched to Moir's Grove,
where addresses were delivered by
various gentlemen. An organ and or-
chestra furnished music. One of_t.he
principal speakers was Rev.W.McDon-
agh, of Stratford.

A Deadlock
The Turner government in British
Columbia was the only Conservative
government in the Dominion, and the
elections were held last week. The
latest returns indicate the defeat of
the Government at the polls. Definite
news have been received from all
constituencies but Cariboo, and it is
said that Cariboo has returned two
Opposition ists.
On this basis, the figures stand:
Opposition, 19.
Government, 15.
Independent, 2.
Caserar, two members, yet to be el-
ected. This makes the total 38 seats.
Giving the two Independents and
two Caserar seats to the Government,
that makes 19 each, bnt, when the first
want of confidence vote comes to be
taken, the Government would have
its own speaker in the chair, and so
would be defeated by 19 votes to 18.
It is acknowledged that the present
Opposition would be equally unable to
command a working majority, even if
it were to carry one seat in Cassiar.
.The Rev.B. W. Merrill of Fort William,
Ont., has accepted the oall of the First
Baptist Church, Guelph.
Sir Oliver Mowat will lay the oorner
stone of a new Methodist Church,in Jarvis,
Haldimand county, on Wednesday July 20.
A terrific hail storm passed over Neep-
awa on Monday. The storm started at
eighteen o'clock, and lasted for about half
an hour. The hail was as large as hens
eggs, and smashed nearly all the windows
on the north aide of the buildings. The
storm covered an area, of two by twelve
miles, starting ten miles north West of here
and running two miles south east. Moat
of the Drops in this notion are ruined.
Annual Midsummer Bargain Dai:

SA rvRva r, Ju/y 23rd
when from every department of our big store will be gathered what remains of su�.
mer stocks, to be placed on our counters at prices that are bound to clear them out

fore we enter stock the end of this month. This is one of the great money -sav-
ing chances of the year for dry goods buyers. FOR SATURDAY, JULY 23rd,
