However. nearly 1 . Were all the clasee re reeau pees d. The horses shown were all in good condi- tion and there was considerable com- petition. Other climes were fairly well filled. and the fruit display was a mag- ni8ceut one, eo good a judge as R. R. Sloan, of Porter's Rill, stating that it was fully equal io quality to that at the Toronto Exhibition. The fruit display tbis year wee un- usually good, there being as many as 493 exhibits. F. Metcalf, of Blyth, wh.n judged this display, told The Sig- nal that it was the finest exhibit of apples he ever had the pleasure of )edging, many of them being perfect. The exhibits in the main building by the merchants and business men were up to the standard of other years. in the centre of the building a dis- play of almost e.erything in hardware was made by C.

They were in their old stand on the east side of the building npetairs. Scotch rugs, imported from Ayrshire.

I. ft•isby. W. Feldman er Co.. wholesale and retbil futtiers, had an exhibit upstairs on the west ride. Considerable interest was taken in the "res- room" in charge of the Gode- rich odo-rich branch of -the Women's institute. The ladles had a stand fluted up on the south side of the building in the up- stairs section with settling capacity for those who cared to avail them- selves of the opportunity to rest. The proceeds from the numerous articles on sale go towards furnishing a per- manent "rest -,nom" which the ladies hope to secure in the new city hall to be erected next year. This room would be available for use of the Boy Scouts, Y. M. C. A. workers and Simi- lar organizations. Numerous done. (:ions were made of flour, tee, break- fast foods, baking powder. soap and cocoa, from which the ladies realized *considerable sum. Fancy work by Mies Haines, the blind patient at Alexandra hospital, also was ua sale. THE SUNDAY BAND CONCERTS. To the Editor of The Signal. SIR, -Although there may not be another Sunday hand concert this fall, yet tbe matter should not be allowed to go unnoticed. Parents generally find it hard enough to bring up th-ir ebildrea as they would like. without haying this unnecessary evil, a Sunday hand con- cert, thrown right in their way. Children, mere children, many of them unattended and out till 10 o'clock when for their own good and the future good of our town and country they ehnnl•l ta at home. One cannor Leap tut sec. with regret the increasing sabbath desecration, and these hand cnnceiis are certainly adding v.r•v much to it. Even a sac- red concert on Sunday ie Altogether unnecessary, but one might juttly call these concerts a sacrilege. Are the people of the town aware that the bandmaster to fill his agree- ment to put on sixteen open air 000- certs during the summer season is ale par'enUy using Sunday as a means to work cff these c ncerts? Two con- certs could be put on on two week nights rather than desecrate the Sab- bath as is being done. it is a direct violation of the fourth command- ment. Is it not time that the ministers and Christian people were uniting to les- sen the evils instead of giving their approval and helping to increase them ? A CaTIZE7t, To the eight if the entr►nre on the wt side of the main building, .ia.. P. Thomann invited inspection of Heintzman pianos. Dominion organs and White sewing machines. Along the west side of the building the Hent of W..1 Muir and Co. had an elegant display of hawse furniture• re - previewing a fariiebed Iihrary and parlor. The latter! was in quartered oak of early Engliak finish. and the parlor suit in a,.lid mahogany -all u holstered in leather. The Nordheimer pians, fat• which this than has the Goderich agency, was an additional feature which completed tux furnieh- Inge of these two haadanm. room..

We were sorry to disappoint so many ladies during the fair, am our stock of American trimmed hots was greatly diminished the first two days of the opening. We did not antici- pate such an o.talaught, which proves to us that we beve established the proper system in doing away with the expensive workro o,n•, and importing our trimmed millinery direct from the big manrtacturer. in Chicago and New York. We have kept the wins., busy and by Saturday morning we can as- sure the ladies of even a better show- ing than we have vet made. The bats that come to tris department are the hate of the hour. and are exactly the styles worn in thews large cities. Every bat is exclusive in style. We invite the ladies to walk right in and view the styles. All our stock of wingr. feathers and flowers will be disposed of at half-price.

THE ELECTIONS. place i, with the advocates of privil- - ege After fifteen years of Lthetal rule, during which tanade has had its greatest era of prosperity, the Govern. stent hart been defeated at the polls. Sir Wilfrid Lauf ter, ('ao81a's greatest citizen in defeat a• In victory, will in a few weeks hand or yethe reins of power to Hon. It. L. Borden, the leader of the triumphant Opposition forces. The causes of the defeat are not hard to reek. The reciprocity issuesufficientlywas not sufficiently popular with the farmers to afford an offset for the un- reasonable hostility to the measure shown by the people of the towns and cities. Even tbe Western Provinces, wheuce the demand for reciprocity came with especial insistence, did not stand by the cause as whole-heartedly as was expected. Ontario, however, was the chief centre of the turnover. In this Province t1 mere handful of Liberals are returned, and among the defeated ones are the Liberal candi- dates in the three Huron ridings. Mr. Lewis' majority in West Huron is 180. In South Huron, M. Y. McLean, the late member, is defeated by J. J. Meruer, the tester's majority being re- ported as 100; and in East Huron Jas. Bowmen wine with a margin of 2W over Arch. Hislop. Considering the slump throughout the Dominion, West Huron did well in keeping Mr. Lewis' majority down to its actual figures. In a border lake constituency like this the advantages of freer trade with our neighbors were more plainly understood than in the inland counties. and it is an indi- cation of the strength of the prejudices aroused against reciprocity that a town situated as Goderich is should record a majority in opposition to a policy so plainly in its interests. The '•ennexatioo" cry" no doubt, 'had con- siderable effect throughout the coun- t. y, and there was not sufficient time to explain to the workingmen in the towns and cities that their interests were not imperilled. We aro sorry that the country has not mean to the gpportuoity that was presented. >Ibpecially we regret that defeat bas come in his old age upon Sir Wilfrid Laurier, who has given his best years in the cause of the country he loves, and who still stands unrivalled in the affections of a great host of his countrymen. The Returns. The returns from the town of Gode- rich we -re to both part- ies. tbe Liberals not expecting so large a majority against them, and the Conservatives expecting a mach larger one in their favor. Clin:..n gave the Lit•erels a body blow. the Liberal majority for Holmes in 1908 of 87 being turned into a Conservative majority of 3?, Ashfield restored the spirit of the Liberate to some extent, but it was soon seen that the country polls were not doing much in the way of a turnover towards the Liberal candidate and the disappointing re- turns from Hallett completely extin- guished the hopes of Mr. Cameron's supporters. Tbe Liberals received the returns in the evening at the Red Star Theatre, while the Conservatives used the Temperance Hall. There wad. of course, great rejoicing and tremen- dous noise on the part of the Lewis party, end a huge bonfire was built to celebrate the victory. The Grits had to satisfy themselves with the knowl- edge that, if they were not particu- larly happy, the other fellows were, as was abundantly manifested through- out the evening end until away on in tbe night..
