P. P. for South Bruce, has introduced a bill in the Legislature to amend the High School Act. At present when pupils choose to attend a high school in some other county than the one they live in, their county is obliged to contribute a cer- tain sum per head towards the main- tenance of such school. Dr. Clapp's bill will do away with this arrange- ment and oblige pupils to pay their own way if they insist on attending a high school outside their own county.

It is argued that the enormous augmenta- tion in the percentage of lunatics among the population of recent years is for the most part due to drink and that the habit is, besides, having a general deteriorating effect on the nation.

WINGHAM BRANCH C. f. %mfth - agent * -The bye -election in West Middle- sex was held Wednesday, 20th inst. Mr. D. Ross, son of Hon. G. W. Ross, who held the constituency so' many years, was elected by a majority of 124. The election of Mr. Ross does not change the numerical standing of the parties in the House, but merely substitutes Mr. Ross, junior, for Mr. Ross, senior. Fair-minded people will compare the prompt holding of West Middlesex bye - election with the shameful delay of the old administra- tion regarding North Renfrew. -As a result of the exceptionally severe winter in our Northwest Pro- vinces, which has paralyzed the tran- sportation departments of the rail- ways, the return of money to the east has been backward. The grain move- ment eastward to the lakes has been greatly curtailed by the congested state of railway traffic, and there has been practically no direct receipts of wheat by rail to Ontario or Quebec this season.
