Rnntoua sayeth that the Manitoba School question was the cause of a very hot debate at the meeting of the Dominion Cabinet last Saturday in which person- alities were not wanting. We congratulate W. D. Balfour, editor of the Amherstburg Echo, on his appoint- ment as Speaker of the Local Legisla- ture, It is certainly a compliment to the newspaper men of Ontario. Mr. Balfour will do credit to the position. He is the member for South Essex and has been in the House for the past 12 years. Taoso 4,000 French Canadians who are anxious to remove from Michigan to • Northern Ontario ask for free transpor- tation, free entry for their effects, free lands, Government roads and $25,000 to. wards the coat of establishing new homes. Ontario wants the settlers but the bonus is rather more than should be paid. Tac students of Toronto University have a grievance over the treatment meted° out to one of their fellows and have in- stituted a boycott, absenting themselves from lectures and occasionally causing a Professor to run the gauntlet. Their grievanoe has been placed before the Minister of Education and it is to be hoped an amicable settlement may be ar- rived at. We are not sure that the nn - seeming motion is creditable to either professor or student. Mr, .and Mrs. D, Spreat entertained about ifty of their married trioxide laeli Friday night, it being the anniversary of their wedding, A, meet enjoyable time was spent, and Mr, and Mre, Sproat spared no paine to make the event a success.' Paoli the construction of the new Leg• islature, the conclusion is forced that it will be a progressive one, giving special attention to the great staple industry of agriculture. The 'farming interest is strong, there being no fewer than 46 mem• bars either farmers or closely connected with that industry. The other members comprise sixteen lawyers, nine merchants, seven lumbermen, six physicians, four newspaper men, two contractors, one real estate man, an auctioneer, a land survey• or and a miller. Cal ialCon- The many old friends of Dr, Appleton will regret to learn that he has recently Buffered s relapse, and is now confined to his bed in London, A small fire 000urred at the reeidenao of ex.mayor Doherty the other day but it was dieoovered before it had made much headway, Walter Turnbull has gone to Elora, whet be fills a position in the bank of Parton & Archibald ; a gentleman from Elora takes H. T, Rance's late poeitipn with Farren & '.Viedal 1. The old friends here of Mise Kate Moegrove, of Toronto, will be sorry to bear that she is suffering from a com- plaint that has oarried of several mem,. berg of the same family,—consumption. Rev. J. A. Fairlie and wife were the recipients of several articles of silver. ware from the members of the Woman's Auxiliary of St. Paul's ohuroh one evening recently. The presentation took place at the residence of the Misses Mountcastle. A GRAND political rally will be held in Listowel on Friday, March lst, at which Sir Richard Cartwright will be the chief speaker. The meeting will be in the joint interests of James Grieve, M. P., James McMullen, M. P., and Dr. Mao- donald, M. P., all of whose ridings are adjoining town. A meeting will be held at three o'olook in the afternoon and an- other at eight in the evening. It is not likely the residents of this district will have another opportunity to bear Sir Richard during the campaign. Ano= three years have gone by since the Dominion Government appointed the Royal Commieeion to inquire into the liquor traffic and as yet no report bas been presented. It is said the evidence taken, a great deal of which will bevalue. lees, will make nearly 10,000 pages. While there is a degree of uncertainty ad• to the limit of temperance legislation by the Province, the Dominion Government has nngneetionably the power to grant Prohibition and temperance people should not lose sight of this foot. We are pleased to observe that the Patrons of Industry have added Prohibition to their platform. All honor to them for their moral backbone, Wincham. Wm. Tooker, of town, who bad one of his feat amputated last Summer, is lying in a very lowcondition at present. J. Mason, photographer, has left town to take the road again. Ke and a partner will take flash -light and open-air views. After the School Board meeting J. A.

Bell's furniture factory, was unlucky enough to hnve the first finger of his left band come in contact with the saw, almost severing it above the first joint. The dry.goods and general business which has been oarried on for some years in town under the name of Orr & Hie• cocks, has been purchased by Messrs.
