The Cardwcll and Montreal Centre elections have taught the Conservatives a lesson that they won’t forget for a while. Mr. H. W. Johnston is back again from the Northwest. We haven’t had any conversation with him since his re- turn, but quite likely his opinion will be the same as that of others who have come home from there. The annual school meeting was held here on, the 26th. Mr. John Marshall was moved and seconded into the chair; and Mr. W. H. Cullis acted as scorc- tary. Considerable time was taken up in reference to the 27 children that did not attend school 100 days in 1895. A, motion was passed to enforce the law. next year without fear or favor. Mr. John B.

Classpcll and Powlcs, trustees, and both responded, very feelingly. After several rcadiogs, recitations, dialogues, and some sweet singing by the children and the teacher, an address was read. by Master Bcrtic Parrish, and at the right time Edna Worslcy presented Miss Gillis with a, silver butter dish, and Archie Parrish presented Mr. Day with a silver napkin. ring.
