TO ADVERTISERS. 1 For the year 1901.2 the postal revenues amounted to $4,300; for the year ending the 30th of June, 1)03, we collected $4,600. In additiou to that the ou4tonis collection. for 1901.2 were $6,500 and for 1902.3, $:1,203; and So far this year they amount to $1,000 a mouth, When a town of that size and character demaude, a post office, I de not think there is a single man ou the opposition benches who will say nay. I leave it in their hands. With. regard to the site, we have several available. I do not think the site is going to be very dear, though I would not like to mention any sum. There is a site in view which I think will be selected if the owner is willing to i Ifa. ' ata reasonable r i:e,w ell t, will, probably look elsewhere. I not,nay say that this vote is only aft installment. To put up a building that would be in keeping with the other buildings that would surroand it, would iuvolve an ex- peuditure of from $20,000 to $25,000. The Bank of Hamilton stands on ouo corner, a magnificent structure, and the Dauduion Bank has fitted up a build- ing across the street from it in a style that is equalled by very few backs in the city of Ottawa. It is a brick build- ing which the bank has rented for twen- ty-five years. Those bank- buildings are roofed with slate. On the other corners there are splendid buildings, and we want the government to erect a build- ing that will be in keeping with them. We take a pride in keeping our town as. clean and neat as possible, and if any Of you visit it, you will come away with the impression that it is one of the pret- tiest and ueatest town, west of the city of Toronto. Mn. THOMPSON (Grey) What is this building in Winehaln to cost? THE MINISTER OF PUBLIC WORKS. Be- tweeli $20,000 aud $25,000. M1t. TAYLOR. I think it is a willful waste of public money to spend such a large sum as $20,000 or $25,000 in build - int; a post office in a small town contain- ing 2,000 or 2,500 population, which has no prospect of becoming a very large town, This is an inland town, and a post office costing $$10,0;,0 would be quite sufficient. When the Conservative gov- ernment was iu power I asked for a public building in my town, which is a large manufacturing town, and a post office was built costing $10,000 or $12,- 000 at the outside. The town gave the site and the government put up a build- ing at that price, To speud $20,000 or otice of changes must be left at this office not later than Saturday noon. `oat la'he ter (or than changes Monday st be left e ening. eve rtcl 3 ual advertisements accepted up elite to noon Wednesday of each week. ut at ESTABLISHED 1872. hit a ir DIE WIN�alA,M TIMES.

DEPUTY SPEAKER. I would just whosay to the members of the committee that nattigingham is one of the best commercial Ventres west of the city of Toronto. bet rI MR. HUGHES (Victoria) . Chiefly Tory, ilsn't it? is a willful waste of public money. The government should establish a rule that unless there is a population of a certain number and a revenue of a certain amount the town has no claim at all. In the ease of a frontier city like Toron- to or Montreal we should, in the inter- est of the country, make our buildings respectable buildings, but to meet the requirements of a post office building which is all that is needed at Wingham, a building costiug $8,000 or $10,000 would give all the accommodation required. MR. HUGHES (Victoria) . Listowel has a revenue of $4,496.7 7 and Wingham a revenue of $4,507--a difference in the revenue of aboat nine dollars. MR.DEPUTY SPEAKER. I have a state- ment from the Post Office Department showing the statistics for Wingham for this year. It is as follows: Gross revenue.. .. .. .. .. .. $ 4,805 85 Number of money orders .. .. .. 2000 00 Amount of money orders .. .. .. 22,411 37 Number of money orders paid.. .. 1,'237 00 Amount of money orders paid.. .. 20,157 00 Amount of postal notes.. .. .. .. 2,116 00 Inst1.

We have no less than fourteen 'piles of gr'anolitic sidewalks, for which we paid $25,000. MR. THOMSON (Grey). How many Tliaotels in the town? Mar MR. DEPUTY SPEAKER. I am not 80 conEnhuch interested in the hotels as I am in the general welfare of the town. inn Mn. HUGHES. (Victoria). To whom Dtdoes the hon. gentleman assign that outswork in his campaign. Mn. DEPUTY SPEAKER. I get very of thlittle support from the hotels on the zenl)Tory side. If I were asking for this on cirrtpolitical grounds it would be different; gggtbut the town has no government build- catc Ing' Unfortunately for themselves and hithe welfare of the country, a majority tn of the people of Wingham vote against theaxne; but nevertheless I am not going to get £forget them in the clays of their necessi- the sty, and I am asking for a post office, not for any political or personal purpose but gonobecause the town needs a public build- busiling. Therefore I do not ask it for politi- ncal reasons; I ask it because we need It. in Oh er To be sure, you are growing old. But why let everybody see it, in your gray hair?

Scott was seized with faintness while speaking in the Senate, and was unable to finish his speech. At a meeting of the board of directors of the Dairymen's Association of Western Ontario, all the members being present, a resolution was passed urging the government to appoint Thomas Ballantyne, Stratford, as senator. A rumor which is industriously en- couraged by the Opposition is that Mr. Blair will effect a reconciliation with his colleagues and be taken back into the Cabinet. The possibility of such an event is fully discussed by the Conserva- tives aud, to some extent by members on the Government side. A contemporary holds that the publi- cation of the assessment roll would be of much greater interest to the ratepayers than the auditors' statement which every municipality is required to publish each year. It would reveal inequalities of the assessment law. Several municipalities are said to have adopted the plan with good results.

Toronto, Oct. 13. -There was a good active market for all classes of cattle at the City Cattle Market this morning. The run was not heavy, everything was fairly well cleared out early, and more cattle wanted. The total run comprised 62 cars of stock, with 881 head of cattle, 1,733 sheep and lambs, 300 hogs and 29 calves. The quality of cattle on the market at the Union Stock Yards, Toronto Junc- tion, this morning was unusually good, and as a consequence buying was brisk and all the stock was cleaned up before 11 o'clock. There were 42 carloads on the market including 886 cattle, 140 sheep and five calves.

If Dr. Macdonald desires the position, The Expositor hopes he will get it, but he is entirely too good a man to be en- tombedin the silent chamber.-Seaforth Expositor. Honorable George E. Foster, ex -Min- ister of Finance, who for the last two years has been living quietly in Toronto, devoting himself to various business interests, and in the undisturbed enjoy- ment of home life, will again enter poli- tics, this time in Great Britain, in Asso dation with Mr, Chamberlain, who has asked his tiseistance in the prosecution of his campaign. Mr. Foster sails for Eng - on Saturday. Seventy million dollars is a big ap- propriation for national expenditure, but the revenue of Canada is buoyant and steadily increasing. The Citizen is not among those who regard advancing expenditure as prima facie evidenceof extravagance. The chief consideration is that the money should be wisely spent and in such manner as to forward the best interests of the Dominion. -Ottawa Citizen, Conservative. The attitude of some of the Conserva- tive newspapers in stating that Dr. Mac- donald is after the Senatorship made va- • cant by the death of the late Dr. Lander- ' kin, would indicate that they are more concerned about his elevation to the Up- ' per Chamber than is the doctor himself. We believe the rumor circulated from s Ottawa has no foundation in fact; and that Dr, Macdonald will be East Huron's representative in the Commons after the next general elections we have no doubt. !
