A PAINFUL ACCIDENT.
While enjoying a family picnic at
Bayfield on Dominion Day firs. Ed,
Welsh of the Base Line met With an
accident which has laid her imp pretty
much ever since. While paddling in
the Lake she' stepped on a booed,
part of an old boat, which ern -
tabled a rusty spike and ,lipping on
it the spike ran into her foot, She
was immediately taken to the ollice
of Dr. Woods, who dresse.l the
wound, and since sloe, has ,hecn stay-

NOT ANXIOUS FOR THE JOB.
' LaSt week Mr. Johit Torrance, who
was license imelecto): for South Hur-
on for several }fears and until the ad-
vent of the Scott Act, catered upon
Ids duties as Inspector of an en-
larged district, Clinton, Seaforth,
Hulled; and'' McKillop having been
added to his former sphere of . opera-
tions. lie didn't want the, job, but
the powers that be, knowing, his ef-
ficiency, were in;r:stent that he ac-
cept and so he is again on duty.
Inspector Torrance is a good ;judge
of human nature and is largely endow-
ed with common sense and the spirit
of fairness. He has thus the qualifica-
tions necessary for the inspector: who
gets telling if not spectacular results
and the public knowing this will feel
satisfied that his appointment; is in
every respect a satisfactory one.
A word to the extremists :
The root and braucli people, no
natter bow intensely they may feel
In regard to this great question,
must not lose sight of the fact, that
the Scott S nt Act, a Dominion law, is
not in all'' respects the same as the
Local Option Aet J'hose of theme
who have not already studied the
provisions of the C. T. A. should do
'so and then exercise "sweet reason.-
ableness. It is no doubt apparent to
them that the sympathy and active
support of municipal constables will
be a great aid. in bringing about such
a state of affairs as they hope will
exist,
On the other hand the trade, that
is that part of it which would like e
to cut lose, must not forget that I
public opinion and the law are both d
against them.
