ELECTRIC LIGHT BY-LAW.
On Tuesday, November 10th, the pro-
perty.owners of Wingham will be called
upon to say whether or not they are in
favor of the purchase by the town of the
plant and power of the Wingham Elec-
tric Light Co. As the time draws near
the question is becoming the subject of
general interest, and there seems no
reason to donbt that the proposition will
receiVe a handsome majority at the
polls. A public meeting for the discus-
: aim of the question will be held in the
: Opera House on Tuesday evening, Noy.
3rd, and it is hoped that the ratepayers
1 will give evidence of their interest in
I this important matter by turning out en
; memo.
t Some who are opposed to the scheme
argue that it will necessitate an increase
lin the rate of taxation, which they claim
1 is already sufficiently high; but it must
I be pointed out that many Western On-
e tario towns not as progressive or pros-
etterous as.igingham have a much higher
-itstenttfixation than we pay here. With
; the experience of many places that have
• adopted municipal ownership of electric
lighting systems before us, it seems rea-
sonable to believe that Wingham could
tnot do better than keep pace with the
times in this matter. Below we give
some information from places where the
operation of electric lighting plants is
• under municipal control:-
Ia Parry Sound for the year 1902, the
'town had a net profit of $1,157.76, after
paying all running expenses and deben-
tures and interest. Municipal owner-
iehip has been a success iu Parry Sound.
In Willia the council figured on a
profit of $1,500 a year on their municipal
'electric lighting plant. In addition to
'this the town has its street lights free;
60 incandescent eras of 1,000 power,
worth $2.500.
Iiere is one year of Kincardine's ex-
- ience with municip al ownership of
ir electric light plant: -"The revenue
Vcini: electric light was 32,612.20; town
services is credited at $1,100; arrears,
$211.40; 'total $3,923.60. The sinking
•fund and interest on the electric plant is
a$846.61; the proportion of running ex-
penses, $2,970.23, leaving a balance of
:revenue over expenditure of $128.31 for
'the year."
Two rich Chinamen of Big Bar, on the
Fraser, and a poverty-stricken country-
man, who was paid to take the onus of
the murder of Ah Chee, in which all
three participated, were found gnilty of
the crime and Chief Justice Hunter sea -
tinned them to hang on Dec. 4.
NOTE§ AND COMMENTS.
The South Billet) Liberal conventicle
held at Fornmea on Thursday of last
week was largely attended. A. W.
Rebb, editor of the Walkerton Telescope
received the nomination. Mr. Robb
should snake a strong candidate.

Alaskan boundary award, in the House
of Commons Saturday in when he as.

London, and the newspapersthere are
commenting freely upoa the attitude
of the Canadian Premier.
Among the Ontario Judges who will

Kent county, age 84. Noue of the Su-
perior Court Judges of tke Province ex-
ceed the age of 70.
In the bye-ebections for Ontario Leg-
islature held in Sault Ste Marie and
Muskoka on Tuesday leaves the stand-
ing of the parties as they were at the
close of the Legislature. The Ross
Government has a majority of five with
North Renfrew still vacant. Latest re-
turns give Smith, Liberal, a majority of
120 in Sault Ste Marie, and Mahaffy,
Conservative, a majority of 178 in Mus-
koka.
The long session of the Dominion Par-
liament brought with it a most unusual
incident, and that is the carrying out of
the capital city not only the members of
Parliament to their different homes, but
two special trains of literature guarded
by special officers of the Dominion Post
Office Department. On Friday evening
the first special arrived, made up of three
of the largest mail coaches loaded with
"printed matter." The second train left
Ottawa Monday evening and like the
first, was loaded with "literature."

What will go into Canadian history as'
the long Parliament closed with the us-
ual ceremonies Saturday morning. The
House met at half -past ten in order to
transact some routine business before
receiving the message from the Senate.
At eleven o'clock the Commons, mar-
shalled by Black Rod, proceeded to the
Senate chamber, when His Excellency
gave his royal assent to the Acts passed
by Parliament and delivered the speech
from the throne. Parliament was in
session for 226 days.
A report published by the English
Bureau. of Commerce, covering the rail-
way accidents of the United Kingdom,
shows that 1,171 persons were killed and
17,814 injured in 1902. Of every 9,211,-
002 passengers 1 was killed in 1902,
against 1 in every 9,684,414 in 1901; 1
was injured of every 466,700 passengers
in 1902, against 1 in every 546,511 in
in 1901. The total mileage of the rail-
ways of the United Kingdom at the
close of 1902 was 22,152 miles.
"One of the biggest blunders that the
Conservatives party in Ontario has ever
made," Hays the Hamilton Herald, Inde-
pendent, "is its acceptance of Gamey at
his own political yaluation and its ex-
ploitation of him. He has been utilized
as the chief Tory card at political gather-
ings in the northern constituencies. He
has received hearty Conservative indor-
sation, and even leaders have stood
sponsers for him. In the disclosure of
the full extent of his infamy the Con-
servative cause is therefore sure to suf-
fer."
For some years past the practice hae
been very noticeable of some doubtless
well-meaning but rather ill -fitted spec-
tators of fires in Wingham of endeavor-
ing to take out of the hands of the pro-
per officers the work of directing the ac-
tions of those who are entrusted. with
the responsible work saving life and
property from the devastating flames.
There is no doubt that those who arro-
gate to themselves this duty do so with
only the noblest purpose in view, and it
would be unfair to try to belittle the
efforts of those who use their best en-
deavors to save their neighbor's proper-
ty from destruction. but it is becoming
sadly apparent in Wingham that there
are too many self-appointed. heads of the
brigade in time of fire. The fire brigade
has capable officers whose duties are to
direct the work of the men under their
charge, and it certainly is poor policy, as
well as a detriment to the most efficient
work, for any oue else to usurp the posi-
tion of these officers. Let there be a
thorough understanding of and miller -
mice to the duties of the officers and men
of the brigade, and a much-needed re-
form in the fire department will no
doubt be speedily brought about,

Lave Stock Markets.
Toronto, Oct. 27.-Bilsiness was a good
average at the city market to -day, with
quality counting. There were 78 loads,
made up Of 1,223 head of cattle, 1,343
sheep, 1,279 hogs and 48 calves. Light
stockers did not fare do well as the' henvt
ier classes, but otherwise the features
pleased most persons. Sheep and lambs
went well. Hogs had a field day, with
prices slightly upward. Miloh cows
were rather scarce, and, as'a result, the
demand exceeded the supply. This cir-
cumstance, too, kept the tariff up.
Although there was a large run of
stick at the Union Stock Yards, Toronto
Junction, this morning, business was
comparatively dull, and trade was slack.
Sales were very slow and but few of
them were reported by the dealers.
There were. 74 carloads of stock on the
market, and about ten more were expect-
ed hourly via the Grand Trunk. The
run included 1,615 cattle, 243 sheep and
lambs and 12 calves.

THERE IS
MERIT IN
OUR CLOTHING
Merit that brilegs a second order
on the strength of the first. What
we do and the way we do it is our
strongest argil:tent. We are try-
ing to increase our business by giv-
ing all we can and taking as little
as possible.
And we'll succeed, ef course. We
have a full supply of everything
that pertains to the making of
Suits.
And our work costs as
little as any in the country.
