BARRON UNANIMOUSLY Noum- ATED. The Reform convention in Dickson’s Hall on Friday last. was the largest ever seen in North Victoria, a great number of delegates from all parts of the riding being present and participating in the proceedings with much enthusiasm, and we were pleased to see several ladies on the platform. At 2. 30 p. m. the meet- ing was called to order by the president. Mr. James Dickson, who was re-clected to that position. Mr. Edward Lytle, of Cambray was elected vice-president, and Mr. W. T. Junkin secretary- treasurer in place of Mr. Wm. E. Ellis, who resigned in consequence of being about to leave the riding. The presi- dent, alter a brief but vigorous speech, called for nominations of candidates to contest the riding in the Reform interest at the approaching Dominion election, and it was Moved by Mr. Colin M. McDonald, ofEldon, seconded by Mr. C. W. Moore, ofFenelon Falls, That Mr. John A. Bar- ron be the standard-bearer of the Reform party in the coming bye-election. No other nominations having been made, that of Mr. Barron was made unanimous; and that gentleman, step- ping to the front of the platform, spoke in his usual happy and effective manner for about half an hour, urging upon his hearers the necessity of working with unflagging energy if they wished to achieve avietory on the 4th of next month. Mr. R J. McLaughlin then moved, and Mr. L. Minthorne seconded, the following resolution: “ Resolved, that it is with the deep- est regret that. the members of the Liberal Association of North Victoria in convention assembled have heard of the death of Albert Victor, Duke of Clarence and Avondale, late second in succession to the British throne, not only because the hopes of our British empire were to some extent centered in him as a future king, but also because of the bereavement ofour beloved Queen and her royal son the Prince of Wales. We cannot hear the sad newswithout a feeling of deepest sympathy for the Princess of Teck, who now mourns the loss of her betrothed husband. We join the whole British people in grief and in sympathy for our noble Queen and all other members of the family of the late lamented Prince.” Mr. .llinthorne next took the floor and spoke briefly but emphatically on I am now prepared to give cntz’rc szztis/Ztction.

Preston, secretary of the Ontario Reform Association, spoke at considerable length, denouncing the corruption at Ottawa, and contrasting the prosperity of the people generally, and the farming community in particu- lar under reciprocity with the depression now existing, He isa powerful and convincing speaker, thoroughly versed in all the phases of every question of the day, and if the Conservative voters of the riding would gather together and give him a. hearing, the result would be a tremendous majority for Mr. Barâ€" ron. Mr. Thomas Walters, the Reform candidate for North Victoria, who en~ tered the hall while Mr. Preston was speaking, was warmly received, and afterwards addressed a few earnest words to the electors, whom he urged to do their best to secure the return of Mr. Barron and himself. The proceedings closed with cheers for the Queen, the candidates and Mr. Preston. W Death of Prince Albert Victor. As announced by a brief paragraph the Prince of Wales died on Thursday, theyl-lth inst., of pneumonia, after an illness of but briefduratiou. Naturally enough general sympathy for his royal relatives is felt and expressed, and especially for his fourth (though some call her his second) cousin, the Princes Victoria Mary of chk, to whom he was betrothed last month, and the materials for whose wedding dresses were being woven when the hand of Death was laid on the prospective bridegroom; but the nOusense that has been written and pub- lished in connection with the event can only be ascribed to loyalty run mad. Though some journals were less effusive- ly sycophantic than others, nearly all spoke as if they thought the demise of the Prince was a national calamity; but every thoughtful person who knows something of the character, ability and physique of the different members of the royal family, and whose judgment is not impaired by his prejudices, will endorse the following from the Toronto News : “ Every citizen of the Empire will be moved with sympathy because of the affliction which has fallen upon a wid- owed cmpress, a devoted mother and an aflianced wife. But coupled with this will be a half-acknowledged feeling that the death of the Duke of Clarence is, after all, a special dispensation of Providence for the good of the British race. The dead Prince was a weakling physically, and he possessed even less strength of character than of body. He had his father’s vices without his father’s virtues. The accession of such a man to the throne of a mighty empire might easily have led to consequences nouc care to contemplate. The melancholy death of the Prince Imperial in Zulu- land undoubtedly saved France from a bloody civil war; the blotting out of the life of the heir to Britain’s crown may mean quite as much to the nation which is doing so much to-dny for the good of humaity. Individuals, be they high or low, are as nothing to the wel- fare of multitudes. Therefore sorrow for stricken relatives will be modified by the reflection that the death of the Duke of Clarence puts a better man in his place in the line of succession to the throne.” Though Prince Georgeâ€"if what has been repeatedly said of the two sons of the Prince of Wales be trueâ€"is un- doubtedly a“ better man ” than his late brother, neither he nor his father is in robust health, and, failing both of them, the next heir to the throne is the Prince of Wales’s eldest daughter, who was married in 1890 to the Duke of Fife; and there is said to be a strong feeling, especially amongst the nobility, against a in march of only half-royal blood, as her children will of course be. To ob- viate the possibility of a half-bred king or queen ascending the British throne, (which would be looked upon as a great calamity by the old nobility. no matter how moral, intellectual and physically vigorous he or she might be,) Prince George is to be married as soon as pos- sible. Some, on the impulse of the moment, suggested his union with the princess who was to have been his brother‘s wife, as she, like her mother, is exceedingly pugllltll'; but they were reminded that he unis already betrothed to his first cousin, the daughter of Princess Christian. To her he will, m . , _ Joshui Cahow, of Pine Creek, .llich , sorted to by Sam Hughes to put names ' in last weeks Gazette, the eldest son of Victoria Elections. \Ve learn that, in cmsequeuco of d 9~ lay in issuing proclamations, the ole: - ions in North and South Victoria will be a week later than the date first set; that is, the nominations will be held on Thursday, the 4th of February, and the elections on Thursday. the 11th.

Wm Farmers’ Institute Mastiug. .â€" Thc annual meeting of the Elsi; Victoria Farmers’ Institute was held in Dickson's hall} on Friday last, and we are sorry to have again to say that the attendance was nothing like as large as it ought to have been. When such men as Prof. Grcusidc. V. S., 'l‘. B. Linstield, B. S. A., and D. W. Bmdlo â€"all of whom were presentâ€"visit a place to impart valuable information to the farmers of the vicinity, they have a right to expect reasonably full houses; but this expectation has not, thus far, been realized in Fenel )1] Fall. In the afternoon there was what may be etll-' ed, without any very great exaggeration, a fair attendance, but. the hall ought to have been nearly or quite full. I) the evening not more than ahiut fifteen were present, possibly because it was known that Mr. McMillan, an emi‘rra- tiou agent from Carbcrry, was to deliver an address on the North-west, regarding which everybody who is likely by any possibility ever to go there is already sufficiently well posted. The proceed- ings, as usual, comprised addresses by the distinguished visitors and brief speeches or written essays by some of our leading farmers, and those who failed to attend missed a good deal of valuable information.
