It's Neither Winter Nor Spring
It is still between the seasons, and being too early yet to talk about
Summer Boots and Shoes we wish to say a few words to you about goods
suitable for the present.
We have an excellent assortment—in fact we pride ourselves on being
able to eelect just what the people want, and we have just what they desire.
Our Goods are always "GOOD GOODS." We don't buy articles be-
cause they are cheap, but the first consideration is quality—and we make
the price a cheap one always.
Buying for Prompt CASH, 'and selling only in the same way, we
can offer inducements in prices that it would be impossible to give under the.
credit system. Our customers tell us they can see the decided advantages
of this system of doing business.
We have BOOTS and SHOES to sell. You want to buy some.
Don't be afraid'to come and see the quality and prices we offer
Butter and Eggs taken as Cash.
W. TAYLOR & SONS
A Convention Needed.
To the Editor of the Clinton New Era.
DEAR SIR;—In a recent issue of your ex•
oellent paper, you suggested the advisabili-
ty of the Reformers of South Huron select-
ing, at an early date, a candidate to contest
the ridingin their interest at the next
election for the Provincial Legielature, and
you went so far as to name a list of Re-
formers from whioh,in your opinion (in the
event of the retirement of the presentnre-
preeentative)-.the selection should. -be. made._
For this you were somewhat sharply, and
perhaps deservedly, taken to task by a'
correspondent of the local press, who seems
to think that in mentioning those gentle-
men, you had exceeded yonr commission
as a public journalist. Be that as it may,
I care not. What I want particularly to
say is that, in my opinion, it is high time
a convention was being held—not neces-
sarily to select a candidate, for that is a
matter that can be as well done at a later
time—but to perfect the local organization,
which, in my opinion, is a matter of the
very highest importance, so that we may
be reasonably sure of electing our candi-
date, whoever he may be. There has not
been a meeting of the association for two or
three years, and it is more than probable
that•to-day, from various causes, many of
the local offices are vacant. As it is pro-
bable that the elections will be held on the
voters' lists for 1893, which will soon be in
course of preparation, the importance of a
thorough organization in each municipal-
ity of active officers, who will sec that all
our friends are properly on the lists, will
be evident to anyone who gives the subject
a moment's consideration. Our friends,
"the enemy," understand the importance
of organization, and they are already ac-
tively at work with an active, energetic,
fighting candidate in the field, who will use
every effort to attain success; and who will
doubtless succeed in making it exceedingly
interesting for us if we persist in quietly
letting him have it all his own way until
the assessment rolls are completed. I re-
peat, 2Ylr Editor, that, in my opinion, a
convention of the Reformers of South
Huron should be hold at as early a date as
possible, and that the riding should be
thoroughly organized.—Souru HunoN Gorr.
The 34th annual session of the grand
Orange lodge of Ontario East began in
Tweed Tuesday. A resolution was adopted
congratulating N. C. Wallace, M. P., on
his appointment ae oomptroller of customs.
North Oxford license commissioners some
time ago passed a by-law closing hotel bare
at 10 p.m. The liquor men appealed to the
courts, and decision has been given sustain-
ing the by-law. It is the intention of the
commissioners to enforce the law.
TUE TALL FLAB S TAFF—AN INTERESTING
LITTLE SToax.—The Benmiller correspon-
dent of the Signal is responsible for the
following:—Way up at Summerhill, in Hal-
lett township, they have a nice Orange hall
and evftithing is in fine working order.
Some of the good Orangemen there made
the discovery that the hall was not com-
plete without a flag staff to fly the colors
on the glorious 12th and other big days,
and they also made the discovery that a
fine stick of cedar some 40 ft, long was
growing on Mr McClure's premises across
the river, and was just the thing needed.
Accordingly some five of the "boys" went
with a team across the river and arrived
with a saw and axes, the "dandy stink"
was soon tip near the hall, and so far every-
thing went as lovely as a marrirge bell.
Bat alas! there is a revered to every pioture
and this one in particular, for so soon as
Mr McClure, who evidently thinks more of
bis preserves of cedar than of orange halls,
came to find out where his stick of timber
was, he appeared on the scene and demand-
ed the sum of $25 or stand a trial for lar-
ceny. We understand the affair was com-
promised and a sum paid into the hands of
one of the legal men in Goderioh. The
moral of this little story is that if you wish
a staff for an Orange or any other hall, be
sure to make your terms before it is cnt,
for, as in the present aso,.it may cost more
to hook a Stink than o bqy ono.

SPECIAL BEPARTM
DRESSO OODS - PRINTS -
A visit to this department will at once convince you that
what we have claimed and do claim for it in point of variety
and style, has not been in the least exaggerated. You will
admit, as many have done, that the goods far surpass any de-
scription we have ever given of them. Among the many new
things in connection with the spring styles, are the beautiful
fancy shot effects, being Wool Fabrics in every wayrepresent-
ing Shot Silks. A decided favorite for public approval is the
line of large broken check Tweeds, all wool, which we are of-
fering for only 50c. per yard. The Navy and Black Storm
Serges are selling fast. As our buyer has just returned from
the Eastern Markets, we expect the stock will be completed
by Saturday.
Furuishings!
This department, which you aided us in making such a suc-
cess last season, has been very materially enlarged, The ap-
preciation which you showed of our efforts to supply you with
the different lines of Furnishings for your house, has been the
reason for the great prelrations we have made for this sea-
son's trade. When you want to Carpet your floor we will
make it to your advantage to buy from us. The Lace Cur-
tain stock was complete last week. Remember you can get
here also Poles to hang your curtains on for 25e complete.

we had last season. Buying these goods for cash we can go
to every market and the discount we save is money in your
pocket.

The general comment on Prints is that they were never so
pretty in any previous season. The local comment is that the
pretty patterns and new styles are nowhere so fully represent-
ed as at this store. Much praise has been given to the
line . of Black Grounds with colored patterns, representing
almost every variety of flower. The lighter'colors are pretty
well completed; every design is new and stylish. If you are
in need of a Print Wrapper or Dress and wish to secure the
choice, our advice is to purchase at once, as the choicest
goods are going at the first of the season. The Delainettes
and Wool Delaines are especially pretty; many of them are
selling at even this early part of the season.
Mon's &Boys'Clothing
The stock of Boys' Clothing is nearly completed; for style, fit
and wear they cannot be surpassed. The assortment con-
tains many new lines and styles for the spring trade; we can

We give you a nice Spring Suit,—coat, vest and pants, for

• Over 300 families have been rendered
homeless and destitute in two districts of
Lauderdale, Miss., county by Friday's
cyclone. Reports from the farming dis-
tricts reveal a very dietreesing state of
affairs. Farmers are left penniless with
not an ounce of food or raiment to clothe
their families. In many instances their
horses and mules were killed, and they
are without means of cultivating their
crepe. The death list is 29 as far as known,
Our agricultural readers will scarcely
need to have their attention called to the
advertisement of the Steel Hoosier Seed
Drill in this iesne of The New ERA, as the
announcement of an article possessing such
unquestionable merit as does this popular
implement will, without doubt, receive due
attention from our progressive and energetic
farming community. The_ Noxon Bros.
Mfg. Co. are an old established and familiar
hrm to thousands of Canadian farmers,
their business dating from 1856, and the
energy and enterprise shewn by them in the
manufacture and making known the merits
of their productions to the farmer, stamps
them as an active and progressive firm, and
we have no doubt but they are felly prepar-
ed to make good all the olaima made in their
advertisement as to the excellence of their
Steel Hoosier Drill.
