LATEST dee atobes, as wo go to press, say that Cleveland is probably elected President of the United States for the next terns as the result of Tuesday's poll- ing. TEE Belleville Ontario remarks that the man who digs a ton of coal gets about 75 cents, and the man who burns it pays $0.50. It argues that coal should never go above $4 per ton in Belleville, which would give e1 to the miner, $1 for freight, $1 t0 the borne dealer and 131 to the combinester." $7.25 per ion tickles no here.

LAST Friday, the 4th of November, brought with it its usual quota of mater. ed notes. We are pleased to understand that the money wits forthcoming in the large majority of cases. The apple orop in this section has dons a good deal to relieve small debts this season. One buyer we know of has paid out over $12,000 in Brussels this Fall, and it is probable two others are not far behind the above mentioned figure. Tan "Mareohale," Mrs. liooth•Clib• born, and Catherine Booth—both daughters of the General of the Salva- tion Army, have been arrested in Geneva, Switzerland, and will be expelled from the canton, the telegraphic dispatches say. This is not the first time that the brave "Marechale" has been arrested. Many who heard her addresses in Mont- real will remember her detailed acoouut of a similar ordeal. when she told the shalnefaoed pollee that "it was their affair if they must arrest her ; it was not her affair." Her duty was to preach the G,uape;, The manna• hn which the polios of N;hcbatel berried out the in. east did 1 they, tl strnetions showed t pat t a y, , not regard her as a real offender, and they showed her all the lenience in their power.—witness, Montreel, Tui; London Advertiser says :—Win- nipeg City Council bas an important scheme of civic reform before it. The proposal is to elect only one alderman from each ward, instead of two, as at present, and to form an executive body of three other citizens, who shall be mayor, chairman of the finance commit. tee, and chairman of the board of works. The mayor now receives 31,900 a year. Under this sobenle he will get $3,000 a year, and the other two members of the executive $2,000 each. The executive will be voted on by the p:ople. The one who gets the highest number of votes will be eleoted for three years, the one with the second highest number of votes for two years, and the one with the small- est number of votes for one year. The executive will Have supreme control, subject, of course, to a two-thirds vote of the council. We sometimes have it pro• posed that au executive of the civic government in this city should be well paid, in order that its members might be induced to give the whole of their time to the work, How do our civic refortn• ers tails to the Winnipeg idea 1 TAB advocates of a plebiscite on the question of prohibition in Ontario 0 0 0 o have 9 p apparently gained their point.. To Faye expeuse, it is said, the vote will be taken, as it wag in Manitoba, on the 000asion of a general election. The Hamilton Speo- I tater complains that the proposed plobis- oite is in the interest of the Mowat Gov- ernment, which will take this means of avoiding direeb legislation as urged by oertain Prohibitionists. The prinoiploof appealing to the people is, however, perfectly sound, and might be adopted with referenoo to other public questions with great advantage to the country. It is, in fact, an approach towards the Swies method of Initiative and Melton. duo, whioh has been found to work ad- mirably, and has the earnest support of some of the ablest political thinkers of the day, By putting the question direct- ly to the people, the Government would know exactly by the answer what they should do. If the answer ehonitl be in fever of prohibition, the old exouae that publio sentiment ie not ripe for so radical a reform could not be putt forward. At any rate popular fueling will be tested in a way which will show how parties stand, and Probibitioniste anticipate the most e1o0u'aging result. But even if they prove wrong the straggle would be the most educative ever passed through. Huron County.

Purvis, of Goderioh township, beoama a charter member of Inverness Camp, No. 54, Sons of Sootland, Goderioh, taking out aoat:Whints for $1,000. In his ap- plication he bed apparently directed the money to be paid to his neicea, Mrs. Sal. keld and Miss Jacic, both of Goderioh; but owing le nlarlt0 on the application form it appeared as if the money was to simply hisn010ea and the Ger. be aid to p Py tifiaate issued and delivered to Mr, Pur•' vis made the money payable to "his notoes," On Maro111 10th Mr, Purvis died, loaving no direction no to the chis• posal of the $1,000.
