The "Grits" in the neighborhood of Berlin are, perhaps, different to those np this way, for we have not noticed that many of them are trembling very had. Nor do .,e suppose that they have lost many night's sleep, and asa matter of fact we doubt very much whether any Grit exists outside the vivid aid unreliable imagination of the editor of - the News that gives a thought to the question. 'There is no need to do so. 'Why should the friends of agovernmen't that has received the hearty support of 'the people for fifteen years, feel at all Anxious as to the possible defeat of that government, when there is no valid reason for such a defeat. Has not the Mowat Government looked after the interests of the Province (and therefore the interests -of the people) as well as it could be done? have they expended ane cent of the people's money in a way that it should not have been expended ? Hasth.ere been any action whatever of a nature that should call for its defeat? Even the opponents of the government sire compelled to -admit that there have, been none. Mr Mowat has merited the confidence of the people, and they have given him that confidence, and as he Eras done nothing to forfeit it, there is no reason whatever why " many Grits should tremble over the all but certain defeat of the government." The item from the News is hardly worth treating seriously,beci'tuse there is not the slight- est evidence in political circles or else- where that there is any ground for un- easiness. It is simply the old cry of `Mowat must go" being worked over. • The Tart of " the Candid Friend." It is something very unusual to find the London Free Press saying anything against the Dominion Government, but 3n a fit of frankness it has taken the part of. " the Candid Friend" and ad. Ministers a rebuke to the government that would- have been all the more -effectual bad it been given.. some time ,ago. Among the customs regulations introduced by -the government, is one to the effect that in addition to a duty be- ing paid on goods coming from another country, the cost of inland freight on the goods shall also be subject to a duty. Such a thing is an outrage, and we do root wonder the Free Press feels moved tp condemn it ir: the following terms :— "To aid.tbc cost of inland freight to the invoice price after their arrival seems to ns to be little .short of mon- 5trous. It is rather in the light of an iuterferuuce with established usage than a necessary mode of raising revenue. Already the commercial public is sub- )eoted 10 many harrassing conditions arising from the infliction of custom duties, in a manner that is often very annoying. But to introduce another element' of atmnvanc,., and that in the absence of any ubeolute necessity, mint seem to the large majority of people al- together III.advised." EDITORIAL NOTES. The impression is gaihing ground that "the dark horse" in the race for the Goderieh postmastership, is Roht. For.. ter, M. P., for West Huron. THE suggestion of the London Adver- tiser that the manufacture and sale of revolvers be prohibited; is a wise one. The revolver has no good use and'ite presence is always u menace. Pr Is reported that Mr Arehie Brem- ner will leave the editorial staff of tht London Advertiser shortly, and go on the stage. As an amateur actor Archie has few equals, and as an editor he is as good as the best. His successor will be MF Mr J. D. Clarke, late associate editor of the IIiamilton Times, a man of recognized ability. The latest evidence of the Govern- ments desire to "Keep Canada for the Canadians" is the sending of the Eng- lish mails via New York, instead of the Allan Line, which has been carrying them for years. Its a terribly disloyal thing to extend our business relations with the United States, but it is appar- ently all right for the government to make use of our neighbor's railways and steamers. Commerdial Union is evi- dently coming. CONsEnvATIVI: paperscomplain because a Conservative office -holder in Manit- bo has been removed by the Local Gov- ernment without cause, and " a Grit" put in his place. There is no such t ing as pleasing some folks. When John dismissed Mr Buckingham bout pause and put a Cof sorvative In his place, it was all right -at least the same papers said so, and what was right for Sir Jobe' cannot be wrong for Mr Greenway• expected. He was a very quiet, un- obtrusive man, and has only been a resident of this neighborho d for a comparatively short time He was a brother-in-law of Mr John Weir, 1511 con., Goderich township, and leaves a wife and family. Mr Thomas Kempton, who has re- sided in Ashfield for about 12 years. died on Tuesday, at the age of 83 years. He was the step -father ot Mrs W. Cooper and Mr Thos. McKenzie, Clinton. He was one of the early settlers of Goderieh towuship, living nn the 9th con, for a number of years. He enure here from England when there wti 'e 00 settlers in this part but himself and the late Charles Middle- tnn and they helped each other in their first clearings. He is well re- membered for his many jokes and his always smiling countenance. His re- mains were interred in the Clinton cemetery on Thursday afternoon. He leaves a widow and two children, a son and daughter, both of whom are married -and living in Ashfield. Mr Samuel Fitzsimons, sr., after a lingering illness of several weekF, died on Tuesday, at the age of 67 years and 7 months. Deceased .was born in Ireland, and came to Canada in the year 1836, the family 'settling Nissouri township. Somewhere along in 1844, he took charge of the stage line between Stratford and Goderieh, when it took two days to make a trip one way, and even then the passengers i.ad often to walk be- hind and•pry the rig out of the mud, with poles. Afterwards he bought land in Hullett, on the 2nd conces- sion, and resieed here fi.r a number of years: Several years ago be moved into Clinton, and has remained here since. His aged partner in life, four children and two daughters, survive him, the latter being Mrs D. B. Ken- tiedy, Clinton, and Mrs E. Watson, Blyth. Three of his sons reside ir, Clinton, the fourth being in Duluth. In politics Mr Fitzsimons was a con- servative, and 'in religion, Episco- palian. During ,his latter days he fully realized. the power of divine grace"to save to the uttermost those that trust inHim." His remains were interred in' Clinton cemetery yeete,r- day. • CHANots-The fine weather dur- ing the past few days has had its ef- fect in various ways: Fires are to be seen .in back yards cleaning up. - Buildings are being moved, and new fences -put up. John Stephenson is moving buildings for persons below the station, and persons that haver been idle are getting to work. The News -Record does not take kindly to our remarks that "one of its editors talks for' the Orangemen every chance be gets," and explains that the gentleman . in question has not been able to meet all the unso- licited demands upon his time, fiav- iug done a great°deal gratuitously for the .Association' to which he Belongs. This is certainly commendable, and may' remove the 'impression said to prevail, even among bis own friends,', that be had sent out circulars among the Orange Lodgee, offering his ser- vices at a stipulated figure. th Belgrave Saow.—Tbe E.

NOTES. -A new coat of point has been put on the Orange hall, which greatly improves its appeararii'e ; it shows the Orangemen are not alto- gether discouraged even if the Jesuit Bill did pees. The maple syrup social here, was nc.t very largely attended ; although the night was fine and the syrup good, yet it did not draw the crowd We are sorry to state that the wife of Mr T: Durnin, of this vil- lage, is at 1 resent very ill ; we believe there is very little hope of her recov- ire, Tnekeremith. The young people of Turner's Methodist church requested Rev Mr Edge tq meet them, and organize a Mutual Improvement Society, which he did last week. Tho Society held its first meeting on -Tuesday night last, when the subject of treatment to each other was considered from the Bible standpoint. They meet next Monday night, when there will be a bible .readieg on "Seven Things a Sinner has not got." Miss Dick was appointed Secretary, and Mr Lands - borough, Treasurer,with other officers CONCERNING TREES. To the Editor of the Clinton Neu; Era. DEAR Stn, -One of the principal lea• sons for abade trees not growing is that they are panted wrong. In the first place a hole is dug out and the tree is put in and heaped up, and that is con- sidered all that is needed, and it is ex- pected to be a flourishing tree, instead of which it makes very little growth 'and barely exists,. because it is put in some hungry gravel or clay soil, the virgin soil having been taken away, and the only way to replace it is to dig a good sized hole and put some good soil in, before planting the tree, that it may get well started. Do not plant too large trees, and see that they have a number of fibrous roots. Plant the trees a good distance apart, and you will have a nice grown, bushy tree, branching out on all sides. .If you fancy them closer together When' young, plant them at distanced that you can cut down every other one, when grown, and not be uneven when done. There are many crctehed trees around town that will break down if they are not supported by an iron bolt run through the crotch, if not, when the tree is large, the storms will split them, and the trees be lost. A great mistake is made in allowing trees to grow too large be- fore the lower limbs are cut off, making large wounds, and liable to make a rot- ten place in the side of the tree, if cut off, but when young it can be done with a •jaca-knife.'• It will soon be time to r to grow the eswill not run so une etrehtlhe es begin sap as now.

SPRING SHOW. -The spring show of t ntire stock, under the auspices of the South Huron Agricultural Socie- ty, was held here on Wednesday. The weather was all that could be desired, but the crowd of spectators was smaller than usual, this was, no doubt, due to the majority of farmers being busily engaged seeding The exhibit of horses and bulls was probably not to large as in some former years, but the animals were of good quality. The ring of aged draughts, also three year old draughts, is worthy of special mention. The machine agents were well represented, but • the patent medicine men, etc., were entirely wanting, and were con- sidered no loss whatever.

SEARLE, ORGAN FACTORY FIRE. 1'o the Editor of the New Era. DEAR, S111.—Everybody at the organ factory was thankful and smiling On Wednesday morning last, and we had good reason, having been preserved from the flames the night before, which threatned to destroy the Organ works. The efforts of the Ladies and Gentlemen and all who took part is acknowledged. What at one time threatened to be a dis- astrous fire was herocially extinguished. It is gratifying to know that our own fire protection, the 24 pails hill of water,the tanks, the grenades, &c.all being on the spot when wanted, and handled by the best of workmen proved effectual, and had the fire out before the town lire engine arrived. We never knew better work being done at a lire, The fire engine must have been handled to the best advantage too, as they were ready , to deluge the place with water•„, in 13 minutes from the time the bell rang. The fireman, brave fellows as usual, deserve special recognition. Again thanking everyboby and the Giver of all good for our preservation, we aro, yours, W. DonaRTle, & Co. Charles Moore,a Well -to -de farm. er, was fatally burned in his bed on Monday morning near Nanti- coke, Ont. When discovered ho was badly burned about the bead and chest and died in a few hours, The cause of the fire has not been ascertained. Charles F, Hatch, President of the Wiscons,in Minnesota &Patifie Railway Company, committed suicide Monday morning in his Minneapolis office by shooting himself in the mouth with a re- volver. Tho suicide is well nigh inexplicable, as Mr, Hatch's busi- nossand domestic relations were of the happiest. ,Iso was an even- tempered, contented man, and his friends arc at a loss to explain the deed. It is hinted that he had been speculating in wheat and had lost heavily and that this caused sudden despondency. wvaudered away from home. was found near Clinton, a brought to Goderieh, when b was committed to jail. The Bluevale Choose factor was burned down early Thursda morning of last week, nothin saved. The entire buildings wet destroyed. Fire originated at th opposite end from where the fir usually. was. It is thought to -b the work of an incendiary. Ver little insurance was on the build ing it is said. Rev. Fr. Lotz, formerly of' 8 Peter's, Godericl3, has been it frons blood poisoning at his resi doncoin Parkhill, but is not improving. His mother died a Sandusky, -Ohio recently, fro injuries received by an explosio ofgunpowder.• Fie Lotz attended his mother during her illness. The Toronto Mail of Frida says': -"George Steel, of Wing ham, came to the city yesterday and proceeded to "Wow hinttolf," as the sports say. While seeing the town, and doing his best to lubricate it, some 000 picked his pockets .for a gold watch and$20. Ho reported his loss -to the detec- tives. Mr. Kerney, who died so sud- denly last week was a former resi- dent of Morris. His visit was for tbo purpose of purchasing ono or more horses from Speir Bros. Allan Speir mot him at. Belgrave station on Tuesday evening and drove him to his sisters' where he remained over night. He had been poorly- before he left Brock- way Centre, having taken a weak shell while at work in the barn and in falling had cut his head. His death was instantaneous. The Brussels Post .says:,--Coni- plaint. has been made 'that a per- son (apparantly not fit to be class- ed as a man) residing in .the vil lags, has been addicted to cruel usage of his children, and his bit- • ( est effort in .this fiendish lino has been to. boat°his seven -months -old infant so ;,hat the poor child's flesh shows many livid• marks.
