The action was met with a demurrer to the effect that section So of the Dominion Elections Act did not apply to the Plebiscite Act under the terms of article 6 of the last mentioned statute. The court held, however, that the Election Act did apply, and con- sequently rejected the demurrer. IS IT JUST? is it just that a certain portion of a population should be granted Licence to the exclusion of others. According to Statutes the number of licences to be granted is regulated by population. The council of a corporation may further reduce the number. It is for the people of the various portions of a municipality to say by petition whether they want a tavern in that locality or not. These and many more are the granted requests of the so called tem perance party. There are certain other requirements in connection with grant. ing license; so much so . that special officers must be appointed to see that the requirements of the law are en- forced. All this costs money and the vendors of liquor pay it and a little over. Titis is certainly a weak objec- tion. The temperance people prefer free sale to licence. Free sale and pro- hibition are the extremes The ex- tremes are generally wrong, the mean is proper. A license law regulating the traffic is the mean. Objection is taken to lieeoee law as sinful; quite a revenue is derived from auctioneers, pedlars, marriage and other licenses how can it be sin in liquor license and not in these. Dr. Talmage says that the extravagant wardrobes cause more financial ruin than all other social evils combined, (including liquor). Don't advance the fallacious argument that the temperate use of undistilled fer merited liquors is a sin, for no intelli gent Bible reader would agree with you. JDiseovered by a Woman. Another great discovery has been made, and that too, by a lady in this country. ra Disease fastened its clutches upon her and for seven years she with stood its severest tests, but her vital organs were undermined and death seemed imminent.

About two months age William Day Ideon opened up a wholesale produce business at 88 Front street emit, Tor onto, says the World, under the :lane of Campbell, Davidson is Co The firm advertised in the country papers for agents at $151 per month and 2 per cent. commite•ion on all produce re- eeived by the firtu. Another move by Davidson to get a large stock for the holiday trade was to offer the farmers prices in excess of other firms iii the city. The firm did daily busines amounting to $900, and not a cent was returned to the agents. The farmers became anidous about their money, and they -worried the agents. The agents wrote to Toronto, and not get ttug any answer, came themselves in droves on Monday, 21st inst. On Mon- day night Davidson and a friend, the latter supposed to he his partner, went to Bouner's gents' furnishing store and bought in all $28.05 in goods. David son gave his check iu payment and left the store. After the pair had gone out the clerk became suspicious, and hastily went to the Lnioa Station, where he met Davidson and his friend about to board a train for Buffalo.. The clerk at once braced Davidson and told him there was no money in the bank. Davidson handed up the cash and got on the train just as it pulled out, It is said a welt -known tailor and furrier were let in for about $50 in a similar manner. Fir London.

Seaforth: On Nov 17th, Margaret Johnston, wife of Mr. Murdock Camp bell,of'this tnwu, passed over to the silent majority Although not entire ly uuexpected, Mrs. Campbell's death was a particularly sad one. About two } ears ago she had ah attack of la grippe, but apart from a slight cough was in good health until about foul' weeks previous to her death. On that day she was out doing some shopping, and had reached the residence of Mr. George Sills, on the way home, when i she was taken with a hemorrhage and had to be carriee home. Drom that time she gradually grew weaker until death relieved her of her sufferings. Mrs. Campbell was aged 62 years and 7 mouths.

Her arm was also struck and all feeling left it, but she is not otherwise injured The chimney was knocked down and a couple of holes were burned in the floor. It was miraculous that her in- juries were no greater. While W. J. Paisley was at work in his garden the lightning struck a fork he held in his hands, anp the shock knocked him down, but he sustained no injury. Children Cry for CASTO R IA.
