Douglas, Blake LOCAL OPTION FOR CLINTON Clinton March 22.—By the decis- ion of Judge Holt, given today, local option carries here by three votes more than are needed for the three- fifths majority. The efforts made to have the vote defeated caused one of the most spectacular fights that has ever taken place in the district and incidentally furnished several sen- sations. The judge held that some evil -dis- posed persons had tampered with the ballots in St. John's ward by erasing -the cross in favor of local option and placing crosses against local opt- ion. There were fourteen ballots which Writing Expert Scranton had said were changed and the judge all- owed thirteen of these as it was app- arent the crosses,added-were made by the one person, while ane ballofr which. had been marked for local option, and also had the word "Yes" above the word "against," was not allowed. The final vote as reported by the Judge was 827 for the bylaw and 216 against, which leaves a mar- gin of 3 votes over the three-fifths necessary to carry the bylaw. Coun- sel for the local option party. W. Proadfoot, X. C. held that the orig- inal returns which gave a majority of 0 for local option, should be accepted, but the judge decided other- wise. The costs of the case are ass- essed against Hotelkeeper R. Graham, in whose name the ease was entered, GAINED AT KINKARDINE Kinkardine March 22.—Much to the chargin of the anti local option party, the recount they demanded resulted in a big gain for local option, instead of the loss they expected. Two ballots in favour of the bylaw it was found had been overlooked. The hotel people who were behind the demand for. a recount had to prove eight votes invalid, and they were absolutely unable to do this.

WEATHER SIGNES ' We have a new sign which was nevi er known to fail. It is this: Zf there is a fog in February, taxes will be big the following year. Just, watch and see if this is not an anima-, ing sign. We have noticed it for ten years, In all that time a fog came' in February and taxes were high the; following year. There is another sign iii the Febve'' ary fog business noticed particularly by newspaper publishers and that is. after a fog in Februaiy the 'subscript- ions are hard to collect. If thisdif- ficulty is experienced prior to the. month of February, it is a sign that there will be a fog in that month=a dark cloud as it were, of unpaid drafts upon the newspaper office. Pick out twenty young men as you' meet them and not five out of the twenty are making an effort to save money. The indications are the poor. houses of the future will have to be ten stories high with folding beds in' each room. builds up a character and maintains it for years in the tame community deserves some consideration, and the friendship of such people is to be pre- ferred at all times to the showy at- tention of strangers. It is truthfully said that rain or shine, cold or hot, bard times or good ti11zes, money or no money, measles or no measles, the printer, the preacher and the doctor are always expected to make their visits on time. The fellow that's on the water wag- on ought to be comforted by the thought that water will soon be chang- ed to the ice wagon, one of the most comfortable spots. in the summer time. If President Taft is to take the chair at Yale, it's high time that the • furniture makers should begin work on it so as to give the concrete base time to settle. The difference between an agricul-' turist and a farmer is that the farm er gets up at the break of day, feeds: his stock and has breakfiist at sun-• up. After his frugal meal he hitches; his team to the plough, takes the hard handles in his horny hands, calls "gee; haw" to his team and ploughs all the: long weary day. The agriculturist gets tip at eight o'clock in the morning and after an easy breakfast, pulls on his gloves, orders his horse and bug gy and drives to town The ground dog came out of his hole as usual, but seeing the high'cost of living, was not slow in getting back. There's a smudge in the garden, a smoke in the air; a smell combined of burnt leather and hair. There's a girl on the lawn with a rake in heir hand; there's woe and distress all over the land. There's carpets to beat and rugs to shake: enough of such work to make a man quake: There's stoves to be moved and carpets to pitt. down, no wonder a man wants to get out of town. Whether you handle a pick or a pen a wheelbarrow or a set of books; dig ditches or edit a paper, ring an auc- tion bell or write funny things, you will see that the,men who are Most able to live the rest of their" hives without work are the men who Work the hardest, Don't be afraid of kill ing yourself with Work. Work gives an appetite for meals, it lends solidity to your slumbers. It gives the appre- ciation of a holiday. There are young men who do not work but the world is not proud of them. It does not ov- en know their names; it speaks of them as so-and-so's son. The great busy world does not even know they are here. So find out what you want to know and go in; take off your hat and make a dust in the world. The busier you. are the less deviltry you will get into, the sweeter will be your sleep and the better the world will be for you. If men are the salt of the earth, women are undoubtedly the sugar. Salt is necessary—sugar is a luxury. Vicious men are salt -peter; stern men are rock salt; nice men are table salt. Old maids are brown sugar; good natured matrons are loaf sugar, and pretty girls are pulverized sugar. Please pass the pulverized sugar. The command to Remember the Sabbath Day and keep it holy is hn- medidtely followed by "Six days shalt thou lobor and do all thy work." The littler is just as imper- alive as the- former, and the Lord has as much disgust for the loafer as for the Sabbath breaker. There is more benefit in a good laugh than in all the hot water rem- edies—cold water, electric and all the other new angled treatments in the world, and it does not cost any- thing. Laugh. If you have noth- ing to laugh at, laugh at your neighbor. He is probably improuing his health by laughing at you. It frequently happens that a strang- er coming into a community and put- ting on the airs of a gentleman, is taken up at once and lionized, through nothinpvhateveris known of his an- tecedents and the sequel often proves that it ie best not to take up with strangers to readily. The old friends whose characters are firm and established as the everlasting hills, are to apt to become common- place to us, but We know they will do to tie to, and it is not best to give them up for those whom we do not know.- The man or woman who Spring Show Entire Stock and Harnese Horses This annual Spring Show of stallions, Harness Horses and Bulls, under the auspices of the South Huron Agricul- tural Society, will be held in BRUCEFIELD Wednesday, April 2, 1913 PRIZE LIST STALLIONS Aged draft stallion $6 4 2 Three year old draft stallion 6 4 2 Aged percheron stallion 6 4 2 Three year old percheron stallion 6 4 2 Aged carriage stallion, 16 hands or over 5 4 2 Three year old carriage stal- lion 4 3 Aged roadster stallion 5 3 2 BULLS Aged Shorthorn bull $6 4 2 Shorthorn bull, calved after Sept. 1st 1910 6 4 Shorthorn bull, calved after Sept, 11911. 6 4 2 HARNESS HORSES Heavy draft team $6 $4 $2 $ Heavy draft brood mare in foal 8 6 4 2 8 yr old heavy draft filly or geilding 3 2 ea yr oldheavy draft filly or . basis -3 2 A Silver Medal will be given as a Sweepstakes for the best Heavy Daaft filly'or geilbing, any age to be shown on halter.
