THE HURON SIGNAL
FRIDAY, MARCH 10, 1881.
CONORArULATORY.
•
The Town Council of the town of God -
eel& at their regular meeting, held un
the evening of the 3rd inst., passed the
following reel,' ution :
Rewired -That this Council, having
read witn alarm the cablegram announc-
ing the attempt to take the life of Her
Most Gracious Majesty, Queen,Victorie,
beg to express their warmest feelings of
congratulation at Her Majesty's wit*
(rem this seventh attempt to assassinate
her. While thanking Almighty God for
Hiscontinued protection of our country's
noble Queen, we desire to render to her-
self expressions of regard and attach-
ment, trusting her life may be long spar-
ed to her subjects in this colony.
Signed on behalf of the Council and
people of the Town of Goderich.
Hoascs Hoarose Mayor.
Tea people of Goderich are anxious to
know when is the Railway Committee
likely to get to work.
THE bill to repeal the stamp duties on
promissory notes has been passed by
Parliament and the Act came into force
on Saturday last. The unused bill
stamps will be exchangeable for postage
stamps until the 30th of June next.
Tee editor of the Seaforth Bun (Tory)
last week referred to the editor of the
Goderich Star (Tory) as a "genint crank,"
and winds up by alluding to "his proto-
type Guiteau." The Seaforth scribe is
evidently practising rhetoric for the
coming election.
A tarns° of Liberals to nominate a
candidate for Centro Huron, at the gen-
eral election, has been called for Satur-
day at Seaforth. It is thought by some
that, as there is a possibility of the
Huron seats being redistributed, and as
the constituency is a pretty safe one, the
nominating of a candidate so early is
rather premature.

Rritos has it that the Collector of
Customs at Goderich, will ahortly retire
on a superannuation. Mr. Doty has
been an efficient and experienced officer
and well deserves an honorable retire-
ment. There are three aspirants, we
understand, for the position of Collector
in case of a vacancy, and two "patriots"
will likely be disappointed.
A large number of the industries
claimed to have been brought into exis-
tence by the N. P. turn out in be es-
tablishments which have been removed
from one town to another, owing to in-
creased railway facilities. In fact some
of the "new industries" are said to ex-
ist only in, the mind of the Finance
Minister. The exodus to the States
during the past three years has been
over ten times the number that even
the "padded" list claims for home trade
The Tories seem forgetful of the fact
that new manufactories were started be-

plea, a Tory to -day and a Reformer to-
morrow, he was taken up by the Con-
servative of Ceptru Huron because the
case is a hopeless one, and none of the
standing candidates of the party were
willing to he aleughtered. Whether Sir
Richard Cartwright or some local man
will be the Reform standard bearer, the
Tory candidate will get such a drubbing
that he is not likely soon to forget."
As Tee name of Mr. D. McGillicuddy
has been mentioned by a number of
Ontario journals as a probable candi-
date for the Reform representation
of North Huron, we would take this op-
portunity to state that Mr. McGillicuddy
is not an aspirant for honors at the
hands of the coming convention in North
Huron. It is true he has been solicited
to accept a nomination; it is true
that many of the respectable journals on
both sides of politics have given him flat-
tering proof of their friendly feeling to-
ward his candidature; it is also true that
he has come in for his share of bespatter-
ing at the hands of an unimportant wing
of the Tory eress-which of itself is not
to his discredit -and has thereby receiv-
ed a prominence entirely unsought by
him. Nevertheless although friends and
foes have alike combined to foist emin-
ence upon hien, we are in a position to
state that Mr. McGillicuddy does not at
present intend to allow his name to int
to nomination. We believe Dr. Sloan,
of Blyth,is the coming man in North Hu-
ron at the next election, and we frankly
and unqualifiedly state that if he con-
tests the Riding,rhe will receive from Mr.
McGillicuddy that earnest and hearty
support which has always been accorded
the former by the latter.
Tee market fee passed the Ontario
House on Monday last, and willibecome
law in the ordinary course. It provides
that, after lat April next, no market fee
shall be charged upon cereals, wool,
wood, dressed hogs, cheese, or fodder
that may be brought to the market
place; nor upon butter, eggs, or poultry
unless a proper market place be provid-
ed to afford shelter and protection from
cold. No fee is to be charged on any
kind of produce taken directly to the
place of delivery, nor upon any produce
brought in after 10 a.m. No person is
to be compelled to stay on the market
after 9 a.m., between the ist of April
and the 1st of November, or after 10 am
during the other neniths. The scale of
maximum fees for markets and weighing
machines, hereafter to be taken, is set-
tled.

show you our regard before you leave me
for the land just across the border. As
a reminder of our esteem and love, ac-
