No, Well, I've seen it often, and theman with the wheelbarroW wasn't tibe one who did all the swear- ing. If they intend to haul up every one whO runs 8 wheeled vehicle on the sidewalk, the mayor will have his hands full. IDLERS. -Our town council has wise- ly ordered that there shall be no loafing at, street corners or nubile places, on Sundays or other days, which would hinder the privileges of our citizens. Now, with all due respect to our Chief Wheatley, we think he is not fulfilling his duty by allowing a number of men and boys to sit out in front of some of our hotels to criticize and incommode respectable people passing to and from church. At one time the habit was abolished, but lately it has become un- bearable, and we think something should be done to prohibit the practise. If these young and old men would ap- peal to their manliness, there would be no need for a compulsory law, and we hope the parties referred to will see the objection, and act accordingly. THEY MIGHT DO IT. -Next year I think I'll start a petition, asking the council to allow horses and pigs to run at large in town, as well as cows. If the poor man's cow has a right to be pastured on the street, at the expense of the ratepayers, for the life of me I can't see why the poor man's horse and pig should not enjoy the same privi. lege. Besides this, they add so much to the appearance of the eia co. It gives the town a dignified air to see a number of cows standing on the side- walk, under the shadow of some build- ing, and it would add to the dignity to have a few pigs there also. They tell me that even some villages are so far behind the age that they won't allow any of these animals on the street, but they must be some dead place, without 11 spirit of cleanliness or enterprise about them. Anyhow, I'll get the pe- tition going, and 1 guess our council will grant it, for they are a pretty ac- commodating lot, and willing to do anything that the people want. 001.1 COLLEGIATE INSTITUTE. -- the summit of Gibbing's hill the Clin- ton Collegiate Institute stands,alone in its beauty. Is there any reason under the sun why it should be alone? We think not. Those terraces could be nicely trimmed with shrubs and sun- dries, which would improve the ap- pearance of the place by fifty per cent. Then, more trees could be planted, to help take awes, the present barren ap- pearance, while a neat fence or hedge would show that there were a few peo- ple looking after it. There is no use of our complaining over the past neg- ligence of any particular people, as that will do no good. What the peo- ple of Clinton want to see is the school and grounds one of the leading attrac- tions of the town, and a place where one can take their friends, when they are visiting the Hub. Of course the nice appearance and beautiful grounds will not pass any pupil to the Univer- sity, nor will one hinder the other, but on the other hand, an intelligent pupil helps in the adornment of the school, as also will the fresh surroundings give energy to the student. President Hou- ston is now in charge of the school, and we believe his pupils are advancing sunderehim-and -his-staff:- The pros- pects seem bright for a large attend- ance this fall, and we know that as far as capability is concerned, our teachers are equal to the occasion.

The Empire admits that in view of the judgment *rendered by the Privy Council, "remedial legislation" as re_ gards the Manitoba school matter, is entirely out of the question. The Empire takes the trouble to say that its own conclusion may not be the conclusion of the Federal government, but any one can easily see that the article is really the expression of the 'government, and calculated to settle suggestions that have emanated from varioue sources. 9' clouded hY Messrs 3• Ransford and. 11, . .. . 0411(000 1 1V(YrUO• -Rev J.

PERSONAL. -The Leeburn correspon- dent of the Goderich Signal is kind enough to soy :-This week we had the pleasure of meeting the genial editor Of the Clinton NEW ERA,who gave our butg a transient visit, We fired him to be a pleasant, sociable man in every way, full of general conversation. Be- sides his editorial duties he takes quite an interest in promoting the Metho- dist church in this county, at times performing local work by preaching in a vacant pulpit, and as well the welfare of the' temperance cause. As a speaker he is fluent and clear, and to the point that the cause of temperance is for the benefit of all. CLINTON ILLUSTRATED -Mr. Ander- son, the Mail representative, has suc- ceeded in getting a fair amount of pat- ronage, all the circumstances consider- ed, for the illustrated Saturday edition of that paper. It will represent the public buildings, chief industries, busi- ness places and private residences, and some excellent views of these, secured by our excellent artist, Mr. II. Foster, will do service in connection with the edition. Business men speak of Mr. Anderson as an exceptionally courteous and agreeable representative. FOR COLONISTS. -The C. P. R.

They attach Colonists Sleepers to the traine leaving Wing - ham, Druinbo and London on above days, and parties leaving Clinton can take any of the trains and go through to Winnipeg without change, thus saving the great annoyanee of securiag berths with the crowd at Toronto. This arcornmedation can only be giv- en by C. P. R. agents. Yolders and Time tables my be had from Clinton Agent, A. T. Cooper. ImPORTANT To TEACHERS. Last year the five training institutes were centralized in the Ontario school of Pedagogy, A short time agcia change was made in this institution that will be of interest to teachers and students. Instead of receiving first and high school assistants' certificates as hereto- fore, on passing the final examination, teachers in tvaining are in future to be awarded interim certificates, giving authority to teach six months in a high school or collegiate institute. At the end of such period they will be award- ed permanent certificates by the Edu- dation Department, on the recom- mendation of the principal of such high school or collegiate institute. .

Not that the party is lacking in good men. The trouble is that the good men are not influential. Survivals of the Mackenzie Government like David Mills and Richard John Cartwright are too influen- tial. Of course money is the breath of life to an Opposition. A government has con- tractors andelistillers behind it but an Op- position must look to individual generosity for funds, and Sir Richard Cartwright has been most liberal with financial assistance to his embattled party. The fact that Geo. Sandfield Maadoneld 60 wealthy as well as able, commends him to politicians wheatee that of necessity, ability and affluence must meet in the person of an Ontario leader. Young George 13andfield is credited with all of old John Sandfleld's skillain the manage- ment of men, and last bnt not least, he is supposed to be worth a million dollars. On all counts then, he is regarded as aaorrn ing roan. ma ouvun's GREAT 50125/15. Ontanio's extremely smart Government never made a bigger bit than when it de- cided to utilize Central Prison labor in the manufacture of binder twine. Hard head- ed farmers take no stock in the outcry against prison labour. They eee no money in ruining gaol birds by idleness in order that prisoners may not compete with free labor. Therefore the Government, whioh is a &mere' Government, could with ad- vantage employ prisoners at any sort of toil without weakening itself in the townships. It has wisely ohosen ti fiold in which the pro- ducteof tho prison willcompete only with the products of the hated combine. The fact that the Government can employ prisoners and at the same time cheapen binder twine will cover more sins than the wicked part- ners ever dreamed of ,rommitting. What a magnificent theme the binder twine factory will be for the agricultural eloquence of W. B. Wood, el North Brant, or Mimi James Davis, of North York. They will view with alarm the dastardly action of the Dominion Government in refusing to take the duty off binder twine, and will point with pride to the noble condnot of the On - Uri() Government in delivering the toiling yeomanry out of the clutches of the com- bine. Oh, yes, the cheap binder twine is a great scheme for Sir Oliver Mowat. It will enrich him and the farmers and leve the Opposition poor indeed. Terrible buffering is misting again i Mello, from fahiine. „1, GIBSON-WA.TT - At the residence of the bride's mother, Silver Creek farm, East Orford township, on the IOth inst., by Rev. A. E.
