PUBLISHER A1aD PiiOPIII1wTOP THURSDAY, JUNE 14. WOG. NOTES AND •JOWMENTS. The scandal session is what the Op- position fondly imagined tkey could call the piesenteihting of Parliament And eons qlegtly it was to be a long cue. peril :ps running into August. Now the evidences of scandal are vanishing into thin air, and a speedy ad jaurnment is being looked for. The weary legisla- tors may yet get home before Daminion Day. -Montreal Herald. The command of the Conservative party in Ontario to its leader, the Prem- ier, is that he "loosen np." He has been posing as a strong man. Local government, according to his ideas, was to be of an exalted oharaoter. The pet- tiness of patronage was to be beneath his notice. But he has been literally compelled to do some rank things, and the end is not yet. -Kingston Whig. The fiaanoial statement far the eleven months ended May 31st was made pub- lic Friday. Receipts were $71,012,213, or $20,805,788 more than the expendi- tures. Deducting $11,781,136 of capital expenditure, there is an excess in re- ceipts over all expenditures of $9,000,000. Comparing the eleveu months with the same period of the previous year, the re- ceipts have gained nearly $8,000,000 and the expenditures $3,349,000. Speaking of the operations of the In- tercolonial Railway, in the House on Monday, Mr Emmerson stated that on the operations of the road for the ten months up to April 301h, there was a de- ficit of $82,000 only, and that during the month of May that deficit had been wip- ed out and a considerable surplus had been obtained. In the month of May the earning powers of the road had in- creased by $118,000 over the earnings .for the corresponding month of last year. The mileage, of railways in all Can ads for the year ending June 30, 1904, is given by the Canadian Year Book at a little less than 20,000 miles. According to a special correspondent of the Globe, there will be built in the West alone this year, 5,000 miles more involving an ex- penditure of at least $100,000,000. Al- most before we realize it, our present railway mileage will be doubled, 11$,r. Fielding, Sir Richard Cartwright, Sir Frederick Borden, Mr. Fisher said Mr. Paterson are still to the fore and doing the same good work they always performed, and in Mr. Aylesworth, Mr. Hyman, Mr. Brodeur and Mr. Lemieux, they have equally as capable colleagues as those they se regretfully parted with. Mr. Aylesworth is one of the greatest lawyers Canada ever produced, and 1s sure to make a record for himself as minister of justice, whilst Mr. Hyman has already achieved the distinction of the moat capable as minister of public works. No, there is no weakening of the Laurier administration -the trouble with our Tory friends is that they priv- ately believe it to be too strong for the Weak but noisy bunch that sit behind Mr. Borden -the Fosters, Haggarts, Bennetts, MacLeans, Sam Hughes, et al. -Stratford Beacon. Sir Hector Langevin died at his home in Quebec Monday evening. Deceased had been in failing health for some yeara. He was born in 1828, and before his twentieth year he was a law student and editor of the Journal of Agriculture. He was called to the bar in 1850, and in WHAT WOMEN SUFFER At All Ages They Need the Rich, Red Blood That Dr. Williams' Pink Pills Actually Make. A woman needs medicine more than a man. Her organism is more complex, her system more delicate. Her health is disturbed In the coulee of nature. • It anything happens to interfere with that natural course she goes through unspeak- able suffering. In fact the health of every function and the health of every moment in a woman's life depends upon the richness and regularity of her blood supply. That is the simple scientific reason why Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are worth their weight in gold to women of all ages from early girlhood up -they actually make the rich blood all women need. Mrs. Edwin Ward, Brooksdale, Oat„ says: "For years I suffered from those ailments that make the lives o so many of my sex miserable. I wont take weak spells and become so nervou that I could not go about. My atom h was out of order, and I frequently v ratted the food I took. Headaches and ackaohes afflict- ed me nearly all he ' e. Then I took a severe cold whiol s tied on my lungs, and I went to aospital for treatment. I had the best of care, but the dootors gave me little hope of recovery. My face and limbs became swollen and my system racked wide a harsh dry cough. As the doctors did not look hopefully non P y P my case I decided to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills By the time I had taken half a dozen boxes there was a great change for the better. I still continued to take the pills until I had used thirteen boxes and I am now enjoying perfect health. I have no hesitation in saying that I be- lieve Dr. Williams' Pink Pills saved my life " Dr. Williams' Pink Pills cured Mrs Ward by actually making the new blood her system needed. That is all Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills do, bat they do it well. They don't act on the bowels. They don't bother with mere symptoms. They go straight to the root of the trouble in the blood. That is why they cure all blood and nerve troubles like anaemia, female irregularities, indigestion, rlhen- matism, headaches and backaches, scia- tica, nervous prostration and St Vitus dance. Substitutes and imitations won't cure, parging medicines only make you worse therefore you must get the genuine pills with the full name"Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People" on the wrap per around every box, Sold by all dealers or by mail at 60 cents a box or six boxes for $2 50 from The Dr Williams' Medicin= Co , Brockville, Ont. 1857 became member for Dorchester in the Assembly of Canada. He joined the Tache -Macdonald Ministry in 1864 as Solicitor -General, and later changed this porfolio for that of Postmaster -General. He was one of the "Fathers of Confed- eration." He held office from confeder- ation until 1873, for the greater part of the time as Minister of Works. He be- came leader of the Bless on Cartier's death, and when Sir John Macdonald came bank to power in 1878 he onoe more became a member of the Cabinet. From 1879 till 1891 he was Minister of Pnblio Works. In 1896 he retired from public life and since that time had lived quietly in Quebec. Richard John Seddon, prime minis- ter of New Zealand, died from heart failure Sunday evening, aboard the steamer, Owstrey Grange, on which he had embarked at Sydney, N.S.W., to return to New Zealand. Mr. Seddon was 61 years of age, and was one of the most notable of colonial premiers. He was a native of Lancashire, England, and went to Australia when 18 years of age. Four years later he was attracted to New Zealand by the gold discoveries. He sat in the New Zealand Parliament from 1879 to 1890, and finally rose to be:. premier. He will ever be associated in the minds of Britons the world over as the body and soul of the forward move• ment in government taken in New Zea- land. Public ownership has been proven a success in the distant colony. Old age pensions, government life insurance, and woman suffrage are among the indica- tions of progress whicb have been es- poused and carried to fruition by the late premier. CHURCH NOTES.

The Jane melting of Huron County Connell was held in Gojeriole last week It was deoided by motion that the license fee for transient traders be $200, and that the fee for residents of the county be $25. Heretofore no distinction was made between residents and non-resi- dents. The salary of Mr. French, Keeper of the Hones of Refuge, was increased by $50, and that of the Matron, Mrs. Simp- son, by $25 a year. The Warden and Messrs. Cantelon and Miller met Mr. Guttridge, in order to arrive at a settlement with him over dis- puted account. The balanoe due him on concrete, was $1888 75 and for ex- cavating $515.65, a total of $2404.40 Mr. Guttridge agreed to accept $2167 in full of account and the matter was settled. The report of the House of Refuge Committee in substance, was as follows: -Some time ago it was found necessary to perform an operation on one of the patients, A. Daley, of Taokersmith; we think the physician should in all such cases, be paid at least for the appliances required. In reference to the purchase of additional land for farm purposes, the Committee has no recommendation to make, and leave the question for consi- deration of Council. In reference to in- mates who are able to pay, papers have been executed as follows:- Dora West - fall, real estate valued at $450; Elijah Walker, cash $339; John Dinsley, oath $577. Inquiry will be made concerning other inmates who have means. Sup- plies for the House are bought by tender as far as possible, and Keeper and Matron are careful; every department is Olean and tidy. Alex. Kavis is a dan- gerous inmate and should be committed to jail. The Jailer reported the presence of 7 prisoners. Three are insaue; one is in for vagrancy and another for larcen& The County Council by a majority of four adopted the report of the Valuators, the particulars of which were given in the TIMES some months ago. By the adoption of this report the assessed value 1• the county is raised from $5,650,070 to $6,725,675, making an increase of $1,081,330. The difference made in the muniepalities in this vicinity is as fol- lows. - Valuation Assessed Value Inc Wingham $202,900 $167,860 $35,040 Morris 841,650 263,800 77,850.

Some Suggestive Comparsions In seven years the value of the field crops of Ontario has increased by a little over 25 per cent -one-fourth. In five years the gross earnings of the railways of Canada have increased by almost 66 per cent. -practically two- thirds. In four years the mineral production of Ontario has more than doubled. In eight years the assets of Canadian banks have increased by the same amount. Agriculture has made great progress, but it has not kept pace, relatively, with some other interests. The diffioulty experienced by farmers in maintaining their fair share of in- fluence over the the course of legislation is great enough to -day. It will become still greater as other interests grow more powerful. Organization by farmers has always been necessary; it is more vital- ly necessary to -day than ever before. The best way to bow before the Al- mighty is to bend to the needy. Four children of the Dickson family lost their lives in a fire that destroyed the Dickson dwelling in Killaloe. There is nothing calculated so com- pletely to take the humility out of a man who blames himself as agreeing with him. The Presbyterian General Assembly voted down Rev. Mr. MacKay's amend. rent against Church union, only 22 members supporting it. The Old Straw Hat. (Somerville Journal.)
