the waterloo which has overtaken them the onh one thej can fina is that the halton oung women kissed the halton young men and co induced them to vote nay which proves two things that the young women of halton are on the side of the scott xct and that the 3 oung men of halton are wise enough to prefer the argument brought to bear upon them bv their sweethearts to those propounded b e k dodds guli rffon r small accojiitc an eslchnge truthfully puts the matter thus it is an eipenence of publishers that too many people are apt to think it matters little whether the newspaper bill la paid or not that it is a small sum and of but little consequence tins is not because subscribers are unwilling to pay but be cause they are negligent each one im agines because a year s indebtedness amounts to a small sum the publisher cannot be much in want of it without for a moment thinking that the- aggregate of all subscriptions is b no means an incon eideraale sum of money an operation necessary upon

ot rates has been adopted b the hotelkeepers of halton board per day 12 per meal 50c bed 50c 1 horse hay oer night 50c 1 horse hay and stable 1 day 40c j one horse in shod or stable 10c water for horse 10c this it increase of rates with a vengeance the new tariff certainly will not commend itself to the travelling pablic the friends o the hotelkeepers or the supporters of the scott act a reasonable increase would be ac cepted and sustained by all but the tariff adopted is so extortionate and unreason able that tt cannot be sustained and will injure the hotelkeepers themseh es it seems rather inconsistent for a transient visitor at a hotel to pay 50 cents for a meal when hoarders are seated at the same table and enjoy the same bill o fare for about 15 cents and this is the case
