Lieteet lacfnisse,-We have before us
the report of the Inepeotor of Liquor
Licenses for tne year 1899.1900 as issued
by the Ontario Legielatnre. From this
report We glean the following particulars: -
The number of hotel heenses, issuedin
Huron county in 1874 was 150, in 1899 the
number had dropped to 84; No. of flop
hoenses in 1874, 38; No. in 1899, 6, From
West Huron the government received as its
share of fees, fines, &o,, the aum of $2544.-
20 and from Emit Huron $873.68, The ex-
penditure for West Huron riding, including
office rent, paatage and stationery, print-
ing, advertising, witness and deteotive fees
etc., amounted to only $58.87 and in East
Eluron the expense in that line WAS only
060.02. .
To CONTROL THE SALT OUTPUT. -.
Another big combine has been for med
aud this time is the formation of the
Canadian Salt Company, whose app-
lication for incorporation appesre rn
the Canada Gazette, is one of the pre-
liminary steps in a rnOvernent to con-
trol the salt output of Vaned% For
smile time past it hair been known that
wine such movement was under way,
and it has progressed to the extent
that options have already been ob-
tained on a number of wells. The
salt industry is carried on at Windsor

are lbcated), Wingham, Clinton. Hen-
sel!, Seafoath, Brussels, Exeter, Court.
wright and Mottretovrn. At one titne
the bueinese throve exceedingly, but
since the Canadian Pacific Railway
commenced business its unlimited capi-
tal and modern plant gave it a decid-
ed advantage oyer all other competi-
tors in Ontario. Of late the industry
has languished, and there has been
much cutting of prices amongst those
engaged in it. Those identified with
the new company are Sir William
Van Rothe, Messrs. R. B. Angus, II.
V. Meredith, Montreal; G. R. R. Cock -
barn, Toronto, and D. Bissell, Buffalo.
The new -company Will have a capital
of 118,000 000 and the consolidation car-
ries with it the actual purchase of all
the property on which salt mines are
located. The minning properties are

Parliamentary Sketches.
The vicissitudes of life find a striking
llustration in the person of Mr.Josepli
'Royal. A few years ago he was a pet
of parliament, representing a Quebec
constituency. From parliament he
stepped up to the pcsition of Lieuten-
ant -Governor of the Northwestaer-
ritories, and those who remember the
rebellion there will find that his natne
figured prominently in connection
therewith. To -day, his party out of
power, he is simply a reporter in the
Press Gallery, and earns his daily
bread as any writer would in btrjlrjng
contrast to the time when he enjoyed
a competence that ,should have put
him beyond want.
We haven't noticed that any of the
Opposition papers haw charged Sen.
atom Mellagh and Landerkin (two
recent appointees)°with paying $10,000,
or any other sum, for their Senatorial
seate. This must be an oversight on
their roads, in view of the, slanders
that have been circulated by a disap-
pointed: Would -be -senator. by
are
not disclosing any secret, however,
.when we say that neither of the gen-
tlemen could possibly pay any such
sum, if they desired to, for the reason
that the fortunes of political war have
•unfortunately left them in financial
rued, but we are disclosing a secret
when we say that neither of them
knew anything of the intention to
appoint them, until they were notified
of their good fortune.
, Mr Borden, the Opposition leader, is
broader than his predecessor, and has
announced his position in reference to
religion and national matters in a man -
net that does him credit. He frankly
stated that so long as he occupied the
position of leader of his party, no race
or creed question would be interjected
into polities. We will do him the cred-
it of saying that we think his decision
Is the result of conviction as much as
experience. He certeinly is not a
bigot, and is intelligent enough to
know that these questions' have been
the bane of politico, and it he can in-
duce his own political supporters to
follow his example in this respect, his
leadership will not have been in vain,
Mr Borden should take two or three
of his own supporters by the ear, and
quietly, but firmly, impart his Own
views to them. 'There are just a few
fellows who are continually stirring up
strife, and while their bark is worse
than their bite, they are, like snarling
