F. Hind, local police magistrate, is at present in Barrie attending. the convention of the Ontario Magistrates' Association. When . interviewed by The Times before leaving the city he express- ed. surprise when told that Magis- trate. Mikel, president of the As- sociation, would advocate the pay- ment of all fines and fees to; the province instead of the municipui- ity, which information is contain- ed.in a despatch from Barrie. "I well recall," Magistrate Hind commented," that at one time the fines for certain criminal convic- tions were forwarded to the pro- vince, It did not prove satisfac- tory, however, and the law was changed so that all fines would re- vert to the municipality." Favors Straight Salary Magistrate Hind strongly favor- ed placing all magistrates on a straight salary without fees. He considered that it was lowering to the dignity, of a magistrate to have to accept fees in lieu of salary, T! system adopted here whereby dil fees go to the corporation he con- pidered fair and reasonable. "We always try to keep the fees down and' rarely charge for more than one session of court," His Worship. stated. "After advising a man to go straight we do not wish to take all his money thus making it hard' 'for him to get a right start." With regard to the immigration question 'and the relation of the foreign 'element to crime, Magis-* trate Mind stated that .in his ten years the bench here he had ex- perienged no great trouble with newcomers to Oshawa from: other lands. He felt that they were grad- ually Sdiping a conception of this count: . laws and were. for the, most anxious to become! good citizens, 'The Barrie Despatch The: despatch from Barrie Is as follows;-- Barrie, Ont., Sept. 12--Abolition of a system of remunerating otic Hagisraie, the -payment ot all fi and fees to the province insteadg of to the municipality, a higher. #cale of salaries for magls- trates @nd the establishment of a systent of superannuation for those officialf 'were among the changes 1n the syst of administering crim- inal justice in Ontario Magistrates Associatipn here today by the president, W. C. Mikel, B.C.L., K.C., of Belleville. The fee system, Magistrate Mikel pointedjout, tended to increase the variety § of decisions in different parts of 'the province, particularly in au ohile cases. It inevitably . flge to criticism by the per- victed. munieipalities,"" he said, "appeat to look - upon fines and fees af a' source of munieipal reve- nue Itend of punishment for of- fendems and appear willing to live on thésdrimes committed in their midst; this also invites criticism by offenders. "There are instances -in which the fines and fees collected by the municipality are four times greater than the salary paid the magistrate by the municipality. If the fines and feds all went to the govern- ment and the government provided proper remuneration and superan- nuation'for the magistrate it would remove the above mentioned grounds; for criticism." «+ Poorly Paid The president outlined the sys- tem of administering the criminal law of Canada and contended the great bulk of criminal cases were disposed of in the courts of the magistrates. Yet the magistrates remained the lowest paid of all ju- dicial 'offices in the country and, becausé they were usually appoint- ed to rico wheh past middle age, did nét; enjoy the superannuation provi ns applicable to all other government officials. These condi- tions, he believed, should be reme- died. In discussing judicial problems generally, Mr. Mikel turned to im- migration. He said although im- migrants. frequently appeared be- fore thé courts they were not by nature> more prone to offend than native born citizens. Allowance had tobe made for,the shock of a new enyironment and unfamiliar- ity with the standards of humun conduct prevailing 'in this country. He doubted, however, it if was wise to press for increased immi- gration: too vigorously. Countries with large populations were not happy and the United States, which had fornferly opened its doors to all comefs. was now seeking to close the! doors and finding it dif- ficult. = : "Will the great mass of the peo- ple of Canada ever be any happier to possess more wealth individual- | ly with®a bik' population than at present Mr. Mikel asked.

They range in size from great Clydesdale stallions with proudly arched heads to chubby little pony colts and in color from blacks to dappled greys. Every horse is sleek with coat well groomed and shining. A large number of horses were entered this year and the judges are experiencing difficulty in pick=- ing winners from the many fine animals which have been display- ed. The jjudking has been com- pleted in several classes, however, including draught horses, agricul- tural horses, percherons, carriage horses, roadster horses, ponies and horses in harness. Horses in harness paraded in the judging ring yesterday and there were four fine gentlemen's turnouts with shining carriages drawn by high-stepping teams. Smart delivery outfits were alsu shown, notably by the Oshawa, Dairy, Beaton's Dairy and Wes- ton's Bakery. The results of the judging yes- rday were ollows: DRAUGHT HORSES Class 2 Mare and foal at foot--Jas. White, A. Maw, W. T. S.

There was a touch 'of variety and novelty to the succession of "acts and spectacular © scenes, and the audiciice, in addition, hid many thrills in watching the daring" feafs of somic of the performers. The feature of the grandstand petf« formances was Webb's 20th- Century Revue, which. was presented last evening. This show was particularly noticeable for its clean, wholesome aspect, being in that respect different from some of the vaudeville acts thaw are often found touring fall fairs, In the afternoon, the grandstand crowd was particularly interested if the , liorse racing, which provided some close heats with moré than usually keen competition. A nuimbeér of trapeze and comedy artists with the Webb company provided enters tainment between heats, while the Ontario ~ Regimental Band was in attendance at both the afternoon and evening performances. Thrilling Trapeze Work The trapeze work was a good quality, some difficult stunts heir performed by the artists. The bal ancing acts were particularly good, and the crowd gasped as one 'of the performers balanced . carelessly on top of two tables and cight chairs, piled vertically, and performed other unusual feats. These artists also jn- troduced into their act a child of about two years old, who proved herself to be a real little acrobat,' * The twelve people comprising Webb's revue, provided a most in- teresting two hour program, that was the best that has been secured by the Oshawa Fair management in some time. Four girls gave singing and dancing acts, and performed contortion stunts that gave the au- dience a real thriller, Comedy Acts Two negros gave clever exhibitign§ of tapdancing, while an accordian soloist, and a boy soprano added variety to the program. The comedy acts were of a really humorous char- acter, and included an actor who performed creditably on @& weird~ine strument that looked to be a cross between a violin and a saxophone; A provision made by the fair "dived tors that added considerably to- the enjoyment of the program by Hho grandstand patrons, was the ins tion of electric. sound™ amplifi These were used duging the aftera for the announcing "of the fiers sults, proving much better than t old megaphone - method; and, iti evening -to carry the singing and talking acts to the audience with greater volume.
