NOTES AND COMMENTS. The MOutreel Star is rapidly shedding its coat of independence preparatory to the general elections. During that period it will. its usual, be the most un- ecrupulous of Tory orgaus. It made a beginning the other day in inventing an interview with Hou. J. R. Stratton in room 42 in the Windsor hotel. Mr. Stratton was not in room 42 and never had a moment's conversation with ;reporter while visitiug Montreal. When the calendar year closes it is likely,: that Canada will have gained over •" -130,000 arrivals, or about 50,000 more than the year previous. Of this number more than one-fourth were tarnishers, The Deputy Minister of the luterior, Mr. James A. Stuart, will probably visit the Western Statesbefore starting for Europe. Efforts to obtain settlers are to be redoubled in the adjoining republic as well as ou the other side of the Atlan- tic. All previous records were broken by the sales of timber limits held in the Legislative chamber at the Toronto Par- liament buildings on Dec. 9th, The 826 square miles of limits sold at $3,677,337.- 50, the average price per mile being $4,450. The largest amount realized at aprevions sale was $2,315,000 on Oct. 13, 1892, when 633 miles were sold at au average price of $3,657.18. The record for highest price per mile was made yes- terday, when T. Mackie, M.P., secured berth No. 5, Hammell township, in the Nipissiug district, three and one-quarter miles, at the rate of $31,500 per mile, The highest previous price per mile was $17,500 bid at the 1892 sale. The total receipts from the sale will not represent the total return to the Province, for the increase in dues and ground rents will be a source of additioual revenue. bridges erected in the couuty duriug 1903, viz , the Stanley bridge over the Bay- field river, 110. feet cleam span; a bridge over the north branch of the Maitland river between upper and lower Wingham. 138 feet span, and the Bentniller bridge,, 378 feet long. A cedar bridge lied been erected on piles north of Belgrave, on the boundary of Morris and Wawanosh, and eousiderable repairs made. Some of the bridges that should be rebuilt dur• ing 1904 were: A bridge over a branch of the Maitland between Howlett and Grey; one over Fish creek at the village of Kirkton (the county of Perth to pay one half) ; the Westfield bridge, also a bridge ou the prairie south of Wingham. The total amount of orders issued since Jan. 1st was $17,3.53.62. The reports of the inspector, physi- cian and keeper of the house of refuge were sent to the house of refuge commit- tee. Jailer Grifliu reported three inmates Robt.I Wallace, Tuckersmith; Joshua Craven, Montreal; John McAuley, Dun- gannon, all vagrants. It would be nec- essary to purchase six suits of under- clothing and six outside shirts for prison use and, under the revised jail rules, two suits of uniform for the jailer and turn- key. Mr. Griffin urged the putting iu a hot water system of heating at the jail, a good part of the work of which could be done by prisonlabor if the matter was decided at this session. The report of the house of refuge was adopted both in committee and council. The committee reported they had visited the house December 1st, and were satisfied with the management. They were pleased to know that the building committee appointed last June were ready to report ou the proposed ad- ditions. They found eighty-two in- mates at present in the house and accor- ding to the report of .the physician the general health of the inmates had been as good as could be expected. They ad- vised the selling of a fat . cow and the purchase of a good milch cow, as more milk was required. HURON COUNTY COUNCIL. December Session. The regular December session of Huron Co.

The council then adjourned. PILLS AND PILES. A prolific cause of Piles is the use of cathartics and pills of a drastic, violent nature. Followed by a reaction on account of the resinous, drying properties they con- tain. There are other causes,but uo matter what the cause or what the kiud of Piles, Dr. Leouhardt's Hem=Road caD be relied upon to cure --to stay cured. It's an internal remedy that removes the causes of ltchiug, Blind, Bleeding or Suppurating Piles.

The question of the disposal of un- claimed bodies at the house of refuge being brought up the following resolu- tion was passed: Moved by Messrs Miller and Lockhart hat this council memorialize the Provnccial Legislature of Ontario to amend the clause of the Ontario Anatony Act, where in it is dir- ected that after the death of bodies of all inmates of the houses of refuge in this Province and unclaimed by friends after a certain time be ltandedaover to the school of anatomy, as this has every depressing effect with the inmates of such institutions. Sheriff Reynolds asked the council to consider certain improvements in the judges room. Sent to county coi init- tee. The education committee reported that both Mr. Field and Mr. Moffat, who had applied to be appointed county examiners, were qualified for the posi- tion. They also directed the attention, of the council to the increase of the trav- elling allowance to public school inspec- tors -the sum of $1.60 for each addition- al school over fifty and up to one hund- red and fifty. The report was adopted. The house of refuge committee re. commended the acceptance of the resig- nation of Mr. Coats, inspector sed filth House, to take effect the ,let (Vilna 1'9O4.

There is a possibility that some of the. veterans of 1866' who have applied for locations in the Townships of Har- dy and Patterson. *and whose griev- ance was ventilated Tuesday at Tor - auto, may be able to secure their lots by spring. The Commissioner of Crown Lands is having an examine, tion made, and th4e locations on which the timber has been cut, and which are ready for settlement, will be handed aver to the applicants. The Government cannot 'force the lumber licensees on the other locations to cut the timber, "because under the terms of the sale in 1881, the pine was pur- chased outright, with no restrictions as to ;the paries! in; which it could be cut, and. the dues have been, kept up from year to year. It will be a mat- ter of luck. The few fortunate en- ough' to have secured locations Will get their land. The others will have to make selections elsewhere. Reserve Force The healthy body has a certain amount of strength reserved in case of emergen- cy. attack by disease or unusual physical exhaustion, without this power of resis- tance a person is an easy prey to every ill that comes along.

Sunday evening, Nov. 22nd, the two went to the hotel to get their supper, and ane of thein bed with him a small fax terrier dog. The proprietors of the hotel allege that just before they ,had finished their supper, when the dinitlg-root t wins tilled "wjtths guests, the men lifted the dog and allowed it to eat from the dishes. , Before the dog had finished a cher- g u is left v es e nurse O n lett , scnal alE the then, room and informed, the proprie- tor.

Clifford Sifton, who is not the least influential member of the Laurier Cabinet. His attitude toward commercial union is shrewd. cool and business -like, So many ob- scure hints and nebulous threats are being thrown out regarding Can- ada's position if her demand is re- jected, that we are glad to have the ground cleared in this thorough fash- ion. The sturdy independence of the colonists is not flattered by talk of Canada's joining hands with the Americans if she is nut given mater- ial advantages. 'There is a note of patriotic self -assertiveness, no doubt. due to passing irritation over the Alaska award. We hope in his re- marks regarding the British navy, he was only playing to the gallery. It is natural for tho colonists to think that their primary allegiance should be given to their own colony. It is the colonists deliberate purpose to restrict any competition that is like- ly to thwart their purpose to develop the great manufacturing industries of their own. There is no need to abandon tho attempts to bring the Empire closer, but it is well that we understand the brusque warning the Dominion Minister has thought pro- per to enunciate.
