a number left for the West, the follow-
ing being booked by W. Jackson,
Town Agent: -4. Laithwait and wife,
Park River, Dak.; Jacob and Charles
Connell, Grafton, Dak.; J. Trewartba
and Arthur Whittingham, Victoria,
British Columbia; R. Johnson and wife,
Griswold; Jos. Riter, Winnipeg; Jas.

bago, Minn.; Wm. Bingham, Glasston,

The following also went west:—W.
Murphy, ofGoderich township; W, and
A. Herbison, Mrs J.J. Taylor, J.J. Mc-
Laughlin, of Summerhill, accompanied
four stallions and a brood mare to Pit-
cairn, Manitoba; Mr J. J. Weir, of town
also went with some horses; Kepple
Disney took a car of horses to Oxbow,
Manitoba, and Mr J. R. Holmes took a
car to Killarney.
NOTES.—Mr Kennedy is gradually
replacing the horses that were suffo-
cated, and has secured several good
ones. The engine of the late train to
Goderich, Friday night, was slightly
disabled by breaking one of its shafts;
it reached Goderich an hour after the
regular time. We were in error in
stating that Mr Ralph White, of Phil-
adelphia, only left one child; he leaves
eight. Miss Nina Buchanan resumed
her situation at Parkhill last week. It
is reported that Mr Watson, formerly.
of the Commercial, has rented the
Manchester hotel. Mr Jas. Cornish, of
the base line, last week sold a span of
two-year old colts to Mr Thos. Mc-
Millan, of Hullett, for the sum of $240;
this is a fine price, but they were colts
from the best of stock. Tne next
meeting of the. Morris arbitration will
be held on the 28th inst. On Satur-
day, just as Mr N. Robson was enter-
ing his house, an immense block of ice
slid from the roof and came within an
ace of crushing him beneath its weight.
Several young men, members of
the Temperance Lodge drove to Blyth
on Friday evening; they found the
roads splend--well hardly. Pdiss
Mickle has been visiting friends in
London. Mr A. M. Todd is this week
attending the meeting of the Orange
Grand Lodge, at Orangeville. The
License Commissioners met at Gode-
rich on Wednesday. The friends.,,,pf Mr
Jas. Turnbull, now of Toronto, will be
sorry to hear that he recently sprained
his foot so sevetely as to necessitate
the use of crutches, and is hardly able
to move about even with the use of
these. Mr T. Jackson, jr., of Jackson
Bros., spent a few of days in Toronto

FINED.—At the instance of Inspector
Paisley, Mr W. Watson, of Blyth, ap-
peared before Messrs McGarva and
Steep, J. P's., on Saturday last, on a
charge, of violating the License Act.
The charge was sustained and a fine of
$20 and cost imposed.
FINANCIAL,—The auditors' report of
the town for the year 1892, show the
receipts from all sources to have been
$13206.69, while the expenditure was
$13582.84. This is omitting the balance
on hand at the beginning and end of the
year. The assets of the town are nearly
$6,000.
WELL SUPPLIED.--Clintonians will
be well supplied with meat this year,
having four first-class butcher shops
and all conducted by enterprising and
efficient business men. When the
stalls were in the old market building,
there were no less than six in the busi-
ness at one time.

11, C. Hale 7.
BUSINESS CHANGE.—Mr J. W. Hill
has bong, bt out the flour and feed busi-
ness of Messrs Welker & Hanley, and
took possession • on Tuesday; he is
pushing and energetic, and should re-
ceive a fair amount of patronage.
Messrs Walker & Hanley do not pur-
pose leaving town, but will likely en-
gage in something else.
MAY LEAVE.—Dr. Gibson went to
Montreal on Monday to confer with
the officials of the C. P. R. concerning
the appointment of medical superin-
tendent at Chapleau, which the com-
pany has offered to him. He is a clev-
er young man, and should he accept
the position, the company will secure
the services of a good man.
HAItD MAKING COLLECTIONS.—Own-
ers of stallions t omplain that they
never found it so hard making their
collections as they do this year. One
person informs us that after travelling
the whole of one week he only sur- last week, and returned on Monday,

prominent in Huron) are so disheart-
ened that they are endeavoring to sell
their stallions and will get out of the
business.

their visit to the fair. She has taken
a lease of the house till the first of

rent that she is to pay it would startle
people here. r

Miss Mountcastle and Messrs H. R.

CASH vs. CREDIT
Thereis much being said and done about business. The
question is whether it is better to do a strictly cash
business, or as usually done, Cash and Credit. Some
are taking the stand for cash or ready pay only. We
are not doing so, as we consider it better not, as there
are times when the best customers have not cash to
pay, as is frequently the case with farmers, as their re-
turns come in the fall. We are prepared to furnish
customers with all the goods they may require for
Cash or Credit. We will allow six per cent off for
Cash, as money is worth that percentage in business,
and we are prepared to sell as cheap as any one in the °'g° -
trade. We will not be undersold by anyone.
