The Postman tership •
Dame rumor has it that the urbane eli-
tor of our local cotemporary will solve the
Podmastership problem by taking the of-
fice himself. The News -Record would not
objeot to his appointment, not by any man-
ner of means, for we are pleased to see
• more than the crumbs fall to newspeper
men who have borne the burden and heat
of the day. We believe, moreover, he would
make a good postmaster, though all of his
good qualities would have to shine forth to
enable him to give ae perfect satisfsotion as
.does Mr A Porter and his able aseistant,
Mise Aggie Porter .-News-Record. '
This is very kindly Gelid, and we appreoi-
ate it, hoping that the same friendlinees
may characterize „future dommeet from the
same source. We admit also the truth of
the last sentence, tor better service cannot
be given than the publio has received.
We could diepoee of the rumor in less
than ten word; but the matter euggeets
little discussion that may not be amiss.
A comfortable government sit oation, at
fair remuneration, is easily preferable to
the perplexities, annoyances and uncertain-
ties of the newspaper butanes; it certainly
would not be any harder work, and the fin-
ancial returns would at lest be certain;'.
whichthey are not in neweipaper work.• •
But the people of West Huron elected the
editor of this paper to be their parliament-
ary representative, and we assume that the
people of this or any other constituency
have a right to expect their representative
to be true to whatever trust i3 reposed in
them. The editor " believethat certain
prineiplee ehould govern public men, and
one of these is that a public man should not
appoint himself to office simply because he
has the power in his own hands to do so. -
He intends to live up to that principle,
Bud we oan, therefore, assure our cotem
without any ill.feeling or mental reserva-
tion, that Dame Rumor is incorrect in this
instance, as she has been before concerning
thepost office, and is quite likely to be
again, before a postmaster is appointed or
the new building completed.

THE WALK BROKE. -The men
laying the gro.nolithic walk on the
'west side of Victoria Street, were com-
Pelled to quit Thursday evening, owing
to the rain, after they had got up to
Mayor Jackson's store. The walk was
protected in the usual way, so that
.pedestrians could not use it, but on
Friday morning it was found that a
large crack extended across four of the
outer blocks just in front of the post
office. It looked as if some one had
stepped on ihcausing tbe unset cement
to break: or it may have been caused
by the filling beneath settling, owing
to the rain , At any rate it was, nec-
essary to replace the blocks.
GOOD MEMORY. -It is not every-
body who is blessed with a good met&
ory, but some people have an excep-
tional faculty in this respect. One of
these is Mr E. Wise, the well-known
market gardener of town. In the or-
dinary course of his business he finds it
necessary to book a good many items,
but he transacts all his business around
town .first, carrying no book and mak-
ing no entries of anykind until hecom-
pletes all his deliveries, when he site
down at home, and simply from mem-
ory enters up &lithe transactions of the
day. This is a pretty good thing to be
able to do -and do it correctly- espec-
ially for a man in his t3Oth year.
THE COAL TRADE. -The strike
among the coal miners of Pennsylvania
Is going to be a. very serious affair to
all users- of coal.' and the prise will be
aimed "out of sight." What the strike
means may be gathered from the fact
that last year, at:this time, Harland
Bros had deliyered obtain $3000 worth
of coal to their town customers. This
year they have hardly delivered any at
all. As it is impossible t& get coal all
they can do is simply to book orders
and wait until such time as the strike
is over and coal can be had. The large
American cities are all on short ra-
tions, and it will take considerable
time. even when the mines are workiree
full time,to catch'upwith thedeficiency..

INJURED APPLES. -On Tuesday
( last Mr D. Cantelon, accompanied .by
E. N. Henry, of Oshawa, (a vvell-known
apple dealer) drove through the
country in this neighborhood to see
cicsely what the apple crop was. like.
Mr Cantelon says that before going
out he had entertained the idea that
there would be a large yield of fruit
suitable for export, but his °beer a -
tions onTuesday materially changed is
opinion. A much larger percenta e
than be anticipated is injured by sc b
and spot, due to the wet weather, an
Itherefore it will not be fit for export.
He says the Dutchess, Baldwin and
Golden Russett are fairly good. Mr
Savage, travelling freight agent of the
C. P. R., who was here this week, stet -
les that applemen in different parts of
the Province, have informed him that
the same unfaverable conditions pre-
vail elsevvbere.
