Fenclon Falls, March 19th, 1894f, The Feuelcn Falls Gazette. Friday. June 1st, 1894. Showing The Oloven Foot. The “ true inwardness ”' of the I". P: A.â€"which is just what we thought it wasâ€"has been shown in all its hideous- ness in the village ofSouthampton, 0nt., where there is a large tanncry owned by the firm of Bowman do Zinkan and cm- ployiog about sevonty men. In addition to a taunery and other places of busi- ness, the village has a place of discordi "yclept a P. P. A. lodge, which met last Friday night and ordered about twenty- five of its members, who are employed in thc- tannery, to strike on Saturday morning unless the foreman, Mr. Mc- Dermott, who is a Roman Catholic, was , dismissed. They struck accordingly; but, though Mr. Zinkan is a P. P. A-ster he doesn’t believe in being dictated to in business matters by the lodge, and ‘ the upshot of the strike was that the firm, instead ofdischarg'r‘ng the foreman, who was deservedly popular with them- selves and the men, promptly sacked five of tho ring-leaders who had threat- ened to shoot ‘the bOIik-keeper if he at- tempted to kindle a fire under the boiler, and the other bands, thinking better of the matter, went to work again.‘ In ‘view of the absence of intolerance from the published platform of the order and the mock mouthings of its orators, we fancy the little lodge at Southampton will get a wigglng from the great big grand lodge for thus letting the cat out of the bag, as it. were, at so inopportuue a period ;. and all who are not in accord with the P. P. A. will ironically cheer the lodge at Southampton for allowing its zeal to outrun its discretion. The association has at; last shown the oloven foot most unmistakably, and not a few .mcmbers who have been inveigled into ' it under false pretences are already showing a disposition to kick their; may out of it again. W W” Distinguished Visitors. The Orange Grand Lodge of Canada met this week in Lindsay,.aud on Wed- nesday nearly 500 of the members ,thercof excurtcdto Sturgeon Point and 'Fenelou Falls under the auspices of “ Major Samuel Hughes, M.. 1’," who, . when the Crandell'u arrived here about 3.30 p. m., was exhibiting himself upon Boom! Paper and Picture Frames 5 one of the paddle-boxes, which was the highest point he could attain without mounting to the roof of the upper Cabin or climbing up the smokestack. But 'Bro. Sam failed for oncc‘to make him- self the cynosurc of all eyes and the centre of attraction, for were there not in the crowd bigger men than heâ€"E. F. Clarke, of Toronto, the new Grand Master, N. Clarke Wallace, the cx-ditto, and Orange notablcs' l‘rou1_cast. west, north and south all over this wide Dominion. But Sam was admitted to a footing ofoStcusible equality by all of them. and it was great fun to sec and hear him advertise the fact by running after the cabinrt minister and bawlin'.’ out “ Clarke William-l Clarke Wal- lnco l " whenever thry got separated in the crowd. Our M, l’. is taller and more symmetrical than the late Grand e Massey-Harris 00.; and farmers will do w’ell to call and see strong facial resemblance between them was noticed by many, both having the same look of insolent conceitâ€"the same nugentlcmauly expreésion, if we may so term it. The visiting brethren being accom- panied by the citizen's band and a fife arid drum band from Lindsay, and the Feuelon Falls band contributing its quota of party tunes, it was like the afternoon of the 12th of July; but it didn’t, last. long, for tho ('rundella's «whistle was calling them to rc-cmbuk before 5 o'clock, and it was too bad that S. H. didn't arrange to give them more time at the capital of his riding; though the fault wasn't altogether his, as the boat would have been here somewhat. earlier but for the logs in the river. An hour is not enough, nor are two or three hours either, to view the attractions of our village, which are scattered over a wide area and some of which can be best seen from the top ofa high hill. How- ever, thc visitors marched up from the landing to the village, saw the waterfall (second only to N iagara’s) and what little besides they had time to sec. and then marched down again;. and it was there, a few minutes before the boat left, that Mr. Clark Wallace, one of the members of the Dominion Government, Was guilty of a piece of coarse importi- ncnce that will appear incredible to those who know his position without knowing the man. Stepping in front. of ‘nne of the many pretty girls for whom Fenclon Falls is famous, and putting his face (cigar in mouth) within at short distance from hers, he deliberately said : “ Won't: you come up to Lindsay with ,us 2” to which question the astonished young lady -â€"-â€"uot knowing- him and thinking he was some hall" drunken ignoramusâ€"laughingly replied in the negative. The incident of course pro- voked much comment, and there are ,not wanting those who. think that it is: the boundeu duty of Sam Hughes, as the representative of the riding and a ’squire of domes, either to lick Clarke ’ Wallace or bring the- ma-ttcr upon the floor of' the House. Now we think of and if it. is one of his customs to address young ladies to. whom he has not. been ‘introduccd, the sooner he begins to control it the better. Possibly he thought, in the excess of his vanity, that so great a man as himself must have been pointed out to everybody, ‘andithatafew words from his august lips, even though insultingly familiar, would be considered an honor by any' address chem. The Red Mill. About thirty men have been busy for some weeks post “ fixing up” the rod mill, but on Saturday the- number was ofthc rough carpenter work is done. A carload of machinery arrived last. week and asecond on Wednesday last, and if the remainder comes as fast as it can be put into place, the mill willbe at work by the 1st of July, or possibly a little earlier. Mr. J. W. How-ry, one of the members of the firm, was here this week and was greatly pleased with the rapid progress Mr. Thomson and his men were making with the work. innd'scll and collect payment for the lumber, came to the Falls with Mr. ‘ Howry. The company. have about 150,- OOOrlngs mixed with, say, 50,000 bc- longing to other lumbcrmen, scattered along the waterway between Cameron lake and G’ooderham, and; on Monday morning, a cooking-stove and a lot of provisions wore sent across the lake to the mouth of the river, where seven ,on eight men are now posted to sort the logs. a. few of which- have, we hear, fialrcady arrived. There are some pretty tight jams at difi‘ercnt places along the route. but nothing tovwhnt there would have been but’f’br the late abundant: rai'n, 'without which the lumbermen would have been put to serious inconvenience and: probable lows.
