defeated in haltohrteps would be at once taken to submit the act in this county since the voting it is said mx j ysfcantz of berlin has expressed himself to the effect that no time would be lost in taking the necessary steps for the submission avarice not principle the clinton xac era qnotes the last paragraph of the last letter of 5ir kyle and comments upon his position and that of his party very logically as follows per months past a mr yle has been using thecolnmns of the globe to express anbsoott act slews as he term it from vbible standpoint in the course of his letters he has given expression to a lot of nonsense anu trash bat in concluding his series with a letter in saturdays q lofc he says i most here express my hearty thanks to the editor of the otote for his f and liberality in allowing so much of his space for the advocacy of views which i dow tobe in antagonism to his own my gratitude is all the greater because of the fact that eer they were offered- to the globe my letters were ref used place in the ifllzexqentfoameceayconsideation what we wish to draw attention to is the fact that almost afi the papers on the anti- scott- act side are governed by mercenary considerationa their position on the temperance question is not one of principle but purely one of dollars and cents the mtickdl rtzorder follows up the above with these sensible remarks mr kyle who has for months- been writ ing in the gtobz against prohibition and the scott act from a bible standpoint has laid aside his antiprohibition pen rince the halton vote as he has evidently concluded that its occupations gone there is a vol- nme of thought and contemplation in his closing words given above- how signifi- cant it is that all the anti scott act papers are governed by mercenary and selfish im pulses vtheir position is not one of prin ciple bat one concisely expressed by the word avarice obituary t4le uts uk ldut dicxsox the subject of this sketch as a man among men may be wrid to have done no evil aud therefore left nothing of the kind to live after him that expression maybe recorded of his moral worth as a cituen and that the influence of his pure and spot ess life may not be lost these lines are written as a tribute to his memory of mr dicksons early life and parentage the writer knows but little suffice it to sa his ancestors were good and honorable people he was born at f time vhen men were born whose moral worth and purpose of life have added strength character and stability to this canada of ours for the last half century mr dickson at the time of his death aug 7th 183 had been a citizen o thia village for the last thirty three yearsr and though a man of markedcharacteristics it can be truly said of him what can be said of very few indeed that he had no enemies though he never oould be induced to take an active personal interest in municipal matters he never failed to lend his friendly sympathy and grant his help to any movement having in view the welfare of oar citizens though of an unassuming disposition he was active in every good word and work and by his exemplificatioa of the christian character exalted hk master he was kind and benevolent and in the distribution of his benefactions he knew no religions distinctions his kindred circle all mankind his country all the globe an honest name his jeweled star and truth kis ermine robe mr dickson had been a sufferer- from chronic bronchitis for many years and this ultimately caused ins death his suffer ings for the last five years though painful were borne with patience and resignation and while his lease of mortal life gradually lessened his prospects of he life to come became his chief joy and with certainty he could exclaimi have fought a good fight i have finished my course i have kept the faith henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of life which the lord the right eous judge shall give me at that day and not to me only but to all them also that love his appearing mr dickson leaves a widow to mo am her loss and to whom the kindest sympathies of this commnnity are given as also to those socially connected with the family w e storey way the repeal was defeated king doddvs opinion clerical bolldcring was successful in de feating the repeal of the scottact in halton over seventy preachere were on the war path and with the most of them no story was too strong in many sections where the antiscott axt voters were largely in the majority they made piteous appeals to stay away from the polls vote for christ or the devil was their ever sounding cry and we regret to say that a sufficient num ber ofweakkneed and weakheaded electors allowed themselves to be bulldozed by such disreputable tactics brampcon conserva tor the above is king dodds estimate of the electors of our worthy countf we imagine it wooldrather rile k d if he heard some of them express their honest opinions of his worthy 7 self fall assizes m the fill assizes for

editor of the fra prat dnia sm the more respectable and reasoning men of the liquor trade i am sure most be convinced the scott act is morally a step in the right direction it is only natural and very pardonable that the prohibition party should be jubilant at the result of the polling in halton county it is right however to show all due consid eration and extend all charitable feeling to the liquor dealers who must suffer in their property and probably in some cases will be their ruin exultation in such cases is as unpardonable as it is unanswerable ko one believes the operation of the scott act will be confined to halton and those interested in the liquor business must al ready forsee the effects of it on their real estate let such men remember that when the railways were first introduced coach proprietors all over england and america foretold their own rnin and the impossi bility of any employment far horses coach proprietors however became bail- fray proprietors and horses have been more in demand and bring higher prices than ever before let any reasonable man in the liquor trade think for a moment what the result would have beea if the old coach ing interest could have succeeded in putting down the railways the liquor business men are in much the same position as the old coach proprietors and the sooner they look out for other and better investments the better for them selves education and other influence are doing morally for the people what the rail ways have done physically elevating them to higher standards than the old fogy beer and whiskey saloons

seconded by james moore that vhereasnearlyallof the stock of the fairriew cemetery company acton has been taken up demonstrating the fact that the matter has been received with favor by the community
