Town Topics THE NEws REooao a few weeks ago mentioned a sed -affliction which befel the family of Mr. S. J. Andrews' bro- thlr in Dakota. The item was origin- al with us. Almost every paper it Huron and adjoining coun- ties republished the item, but the only papers that gave THE NEws• REooRn credit were the Exposi- tor and • New Era. Several weeks ago we gave an original item about the wind up of he apple season and advising farmers to be particular in selecting'fruit trees. It has travelled far and near and is now thought worthy bf a place in the columns. of the •'Tlut'on press that 'are evidently not aware who penned it. The editor of THE NEWS•RDOORD ie pleased to fur• nieb all the new, but would lake cred• it for original matter scissored from this paperbody and bones. Crneeo;•t CALLERS.—Among the dis- til : uished gentlemen who visited Clin- list Friday were Messrs. McLean, e Seatorth .expositor, Elliott, of Wingham Times and MoGilli- caddy, of the Goderich Signal. They are all interested in the House of Re fuge question and the coming vote. Of course all intelligent newspaper Men 'are. Bat how or just why the annexationist editor of theSignal favors • a House of Refuge is hard to say. For when his ideas and writings are Moulded into a successful issue- the wealthy county of =Huron will not re- quire soh an institution. Or it may be 'that the Rev. Mr. Livingston's re - intake are bearing fruit—that the an- nexation newfangled ideas may bear ° fruit, but that it will be on the other aide of the millenium. 'Town Toplieto. , lf. �`.

A Calwell, one time of Stanley Towuship, had eecured a license and was to have been milled at Blansbard, Dak., on ,Nov. 21st, to Miss Susan Sherrill, for- merly of the same township.

Hu is- an industrious young man and deterves prosperity. BE JUST AND FEAR Nor.—;deny of o :r exchanges have for some time re sorted to very unfair and uuprofes.ienal means of obtaining local ne, matter for their columns. THE News RE CORD goes to press at a/very convenient time for the county press to make -use of its columns the same week. We do not object to this, but when exchanges take unprofessional advantage and palm off as their own colnmu after column of original matter, scissored from the columns of this paper, we do object. Be just and fear not—give THE NEws•REo0Rn due credit for what belongs fo it. We auk nothing more. "WE'RE Nor IN Tr. -We have reeolv4I a Is;ter crit',eismg Mr. Todd's recent connection with the volunteer company. He having rerigned, we tail to see that any geed can come by publishing the letter, Further, we will not allow the New Era to be the medium for unpleasant pe eo,,alities, no matter what other papers may do." -•New Era. Who the writer of the letter referred to is we do not know and do not care. Mr. Todd's connection with the vol unleer force has been honorable and loyal and patriotic.

He is proud of this and also proud that his labors were crowned with success.. To have made an enemy in the force we are not aware. We are not of those who will knife a man' from the rear or make a murderous attack in the dark. Our face will always be to the enemy, and if the writer to the New Era will forward his grievance (if he has any) to this office, it willbe given a prominent place in the columns of THE News RECORD. Daggers are very deadly weapons, but when not used under the cover of a midnight assaults the public are placed in a position to give impartial judgment. Send your letter to THE NEWS RECORD, Mr.—,, and it shall :;receive due and impartial consideration. SOME RELICS —The other day Mr. F. W. Watts unearth'ed a couple of relics which had not seen the light of day for nealy half a century. One of them is The Caroline Alrnanack and American Freeman's Chronicle for 1840, published at Rochester, N. Y., from Mackenzie's Gazette office. It ie quite interesting to• glance ever ita pages. The matter contained within the cover, about 125 pages, is made up of the moat treasonable language. An• nexationiste of 1892 might profit by persuing this little history and be led to desist from plotting against their Queen and country. The present sovereign Victoria is described as a bloody Queen and the judiciary and our noble defenders—tiro volunteers— as red-handed murderers. And we have in our midst today people who are being led in the same direction ; people who can see no use for the militia and who openly advocate that we should not • be British -Canad- ians. The other little work comprises about 100 pages, untitled The Canad- ian Repealer's Almanac• fur- 185&---4t hears the name of William Lyon Mac- Kenzie, issued from the office of the Weekly Message, Toronto. Its pages 'are filled with matter advocating the Repeal of the Union ; failing in that, annexation to the American Republic. But the Union so happily brought about has not been repealed and Confederation still stands. for several years, of late, there has been an agita- tion in the ranks of the Grit Party to "smash" Confederation . But now some of the Reform associatioue come out straight for annexation as one of their planks. Loyal Liberals will never endorse that part of the policy. And why should they! If people will only read and study the history of the past, they must conte to the conclusion that it can never be. Things point to history as likely to repeat itself, though. Ill will be a sad time for an- nextionista when it does.

PREPARE YOUR STATEMENT.—Ettquir- les have been made at tide office aw to the Act' which comes into force this year. .Every municipal council should eud'avor to hove its finauuial I'ueiness completed as soon its possible. The Act requires a'ueeting of the soun:•il to 4e held on the 15th day of Dr-cember f r the purpoae of preparing a financial state nent of receipts and experrditu res for the portion of the year ending on date of euel: meetings, together with a statement, of the assets, liabilities and uncollected texas. A siutilarstatetnent in detail respecting the last fifteen days of the preceding year, 1891, is now required to be attached thereto. Every effort should be made to allow as clear- ly as porisib.le the financial condition of the municipality. INDIRECT BENEFITS. —The other day a lady and gentleman came to Clinton from Colborne township. ,and made severe! dry goods purchases. Clinton is not their regular trading town and they do not take a Clinton paper, al- though the editor of Tits NEWS -RECORD and the gentleman hive been acquaint• ed for years. His son in-law is a sub scriber to this paper ant) this is just where the secret and instance of the indirect benefits of advertising in THE NEWS Recono comes in. A cane of the direct benefit of advertising came under our notice last week. A lady and family, residing in Staule),•eub sin -Biers to this paper, were induced through announcements in this journal to leave a neighbering town, and come to Clinton. They Fame and made purchases of groceries, dry goods, etc , end paid for THE Maws RECORD in advance. If the bueinese men of this town will read this pointer carefully, some of them will know who they are dealing with and that THE NEWS RE CORD is not only a desirable but protit• able medium through which to talk to the people. We desire to tell our country friends of the b ieiness capaci ty of Clinton merchants and .their mode of doing bueinese. And we also de• sire to do so to the mutual advantage of buyer and seller. ADDRESS AND PRESENTATION. — Be, fore the departure of Mr. Barrow from Clinton to Montreal where he has been promoted, a few of his friends and the members of the "25" Club met in the room of the Club and presented him with a beautiful set of gold cuff links and studs and the following address read by Dr. Shaw and presentation made by Ir. D. L. McPherson : Mit EvaE E BARROW :—The offi:era and members of the 25 Club, together with a few of your many friends, having heard with deep regret of your departure from among ue, deeire to take this op- portunity of expressing to you our admir- ation of;your many gentlemanly qualities and manly disposition, together with your un- tiring zeal in furthering the inteeata of the Club. During • your short stay with us you have not only made many friends but you leave an impression with them that will take a long, long time to eradicate. We hope your new field of labor may not only be pleasant but profitable. We ask you to accept this present in relnembronce of the enjoyable evenings you have spent with your Clinton friende. Signed on behalf of THE 25 Chun and a few of your friends. Mr. Barrow made a suitable reply, thanking his friends for the expressions of esteem and confidence and referred 'to tilt' many happy associations since coming here. Though going to a city, he felt sorry to part from his many friends in Clinton. Several of his friends present made abort speeches, all testify- ing to Mr. Barrow's worth and their regret at parting with hitn after which a short time wee epent in social amuses stent. Since coming to Clinton Mr. Barrow has proved himself very obliging and a reliable banker, trusted and admired by all having business re. lationa with him, while socially he will be very much missed indeed, espee- ially with the fair sex with whom he was a universal favorite. Our regret however, is snot without an alloy of pleasure furnished by the knowledge that his departure is caused only by greater recognition of hie integrity and industry and that his removal will fur- nish a wider field for the display of these attributes. t, TONYrtl : trOP1GC0, 'Snaa'lr Y0 1%4)4 G1est° aeangq far partridge, woodeOck, cilli?tt, pluveri 1111e1tbice still gritty . ecjuirrehi "auk harm Qa the ISth,of))uaomtie•r, TIM Matiettarlee.seeW, Doherty* ,sq•,.;is tholartldeut.tnayor .olf'Olintp,tl.. <1'hat than»., is any' eotioua OM or ah414101'n11 vs An ofin le nut aware, That 1 t'typr Doherty has given a ttts. faction Ott, an execoilee ofllcdt' gees 'without eytpg, Tbat hu ie a' than largely interested Ip rho t tWn's welfare is without gueetion, That'ibe town is iutereeted In Mayor Doherty as an -employer of labor cannot btkquestioued, lie has filled the position of chief magistrate in an honorable and earls factory manner and is worthy Of the high and honorable position, by ea- clemation, for 1893.

A. six horse power was put in motion and a rix inch steam flowed from the well for three and a half hours., but the depth could only be lowered thirteen feet.

THE MEANEST MAN ALIVE.—Probably the most unspeakable mean man is be who takes a newspaper and after one, two, or three years refuses to pay for it. It certainly is as small assmall apples in '92 to deliberately cheat ones baker or butcher, Still those who cater to the animal part of man's nature must ex- pect the animal to assert itself once in a while, but those who minister to the mind. the noblest part of man, ought surely to expect nought but celestial treatment,yet, how far the practice des viates from this lofty standard? In our childlike trust in human nature, we mail the paper regularly and when necessity demands ask for the poor dollar or two. But it does not come. We ask again, but in vain. 'Then we hear our "friend" has moved to parts un- known, or never got the paper. In such a case we feel like saying with Bishop Walton: "The Lord might cer- tainly have made a meaner man than the one who cheats a newspaper, but the Diety certainly never did. ADVICE Fon FARMERS.—Why do the farmers still continue buying fall and summer apple trees, or Mulberry trees or Apricot trees and one trash and another that cost money and are of no value. The nurserymen are about now and of course they will press anything that is new, as a new thing always sella beat. Good apples for this Province are as safe as cheese or beef. A farm- er buying one tree each of Red Astra - shah and Duchess of Oldenburg for summer use two or three trees of any fall : varieties that, he may "prefer; but let him put the bulk of his money into winter varieties. In this latter .he ehotild avoid new and untried' high- priced sorts, and stick to the Spy, Baldwin, Greening, King, Russet, Blenheim Pippin, Cranberry Pippen, Ontario and Pewaukee. Among these the King is very choice, but a light bearer; the Baldwin is tender in the tree and the Greening is subject to -spot. All the rest are safe and aura bearers.—Ex.' ORANGE INSURANCE.—The. Orange Insurance Society, formerly under the auspices and direction of the Grand Orange Lodge of Ontario,West, becomes after January let, 1893, an institution funder the Grand Orange Lodge of Brit- ` ish America. Recently the executiveffi ocore of Ontario Weet,Messrs. Nichol - 'Ion of Hamilton,Lockhartof SimcoeCo-; Fitzgerald of London. and Parkhill of Midland, met with N. C. Wallace, M. P., grand master of British America, Robt. Birmingham, grand secretary, and Sam Hughes, M. P., grand audi- tor, and arranged the transfer under" authority of resolutioneregularlyadopf- ed at St: John, Kingston and Montreal. The formal transfer will be made on January let, after the accounts have been audited. There is no insurance so cheap and secure as will be offered by the Grand Orange Lodge of British America. Let therefore every elegible member consider the question and not -only get insured himself, but urge hie neighbors to do likewise. In Canada two hundred thousand healthier men cannot be found than are enrolled members of the Orange lodges. It will not be the fault of thee Cana- dian Pacific Railway company if Can- ada does not receive a large number of immigrants next year. In Great Bri- tt►in the company has twelve exhibits of Northwest products visiting parts of the country, each in charge of a com- petent official. In addition there are twenty-four lecturers, furnished with views and maps of Canada, who ad- dress public audiences in Great Britain, two in France, and one each in•Bel- guim, Switzerland and Scandinavia. In addition to these the C. P. R. com- pany employs two lecturers in Australia, two in Japan and one each in China and India. In the United States there are also two lecturers in the south, one in California, three with headquarters in New York, two in Boston, two in Chicago, and one each in Philadelphia, Cincinnati and Providence. There are also fbnr agents in Canada. In addi- tion to these lecturers the C. P. E. has a large number of agents at work in ell the border States. 1.1
