The • founders of Goderich rust

They built the cont -house in what is
now the centre of the town. The 'old
building, put up sorne time in the
50's, with its quaint semi -Byzantine
dome, stands there still in the
midst of the public square, wh)

• A News' representative spent a day
in this picturesque .ca,pital of the old
Huron 'Tract. The veterithe were out
eaend Other veterans were in, farm-
ers . front Goderich 'township,' from
Aehlield • and ,from Colborne. Some

assent, • "Oh, ay,' it's verra pretty
could .you but have seen it In June."
But speak of Mr. Ross and they agree
that "now is the aocepted time"..-

means of salvation:

Such is Mr. Archie Elliott; the Ode
est settler of Huron Tract,now liv-
ing in Goderielt, who came here in

now. Mr. Elliott cast his first Tory

for Mr. Ross,
Ileteditary. Politics Passing Out.
Externally the West Huronians;who
in a few weeks expect to decide the
fate of Mr. Ross, are composed of.
business and professional men, farm-
ers, both bonorary arid active, fact-
ory hands, fishermen, dock -hands and
sailors. Internally, so • fax as the
News representative could judge from
casual conversations, the voters of
West Huron consist of tl) Liberals,
(2) Conaervatives, (3) Indifferents, a
few, (4) Quasi -Liberals. The precise
class to which a particular elector
belongs no longer depends altogether
on heredity, as it did in the days of
the open vote. The stranger has co-
llie in and freedom has sprung tip. The
personal element has developed. Loc-
al issiies have become a tactor. Vot-
ers no longer regard the Conservati-
ve party as synonymous with • the
Family Coinnact, and the Liberals
as. mere agitators for reform. Even
in this sirongheld of heredity the
Simott-pure partisan has somewhat
giveit place to the "doubtful voter"—
the man who in a Dominion election
may be a staunch Liberal of a Con-
servative, but in a Provincial elec-
tion•may be a practieal Conservative
or a Liberal. ••
tide obliteration of old party lines
may eecount for some of the follow-
ing divergencies of view brought out
by informal conversations with . the
electors.
Caatial Conference With Eleetors.
" Are you digging Rosa' grave ?"
was asked of a man shoveling out a
trench behind a house.
'Indeed, he'll not need that," was
the reply. "He's digin' it litinselft"
he added cautiously, "the man
that owns this house is, one of UM'
best Wends,"
"No," answered a carpenter work-
ing on another house, "I don't think
a prohibition' platform will do Rosa
any good, He Wobbles too much."
"Ross is a clever man, but it's bir
bad gang that'll put him out," said
another laborer—Working on the

in the same time. Ross seesawed
with the printing men and he's been

"Ross would have Wen better off
