Hughes stated that, if it could be proved that he had ever said in the House of Commons that , the people of his constituency were > '1 ' opposed to the proposal to make the regular passenger rate on railways two cents per mile instead of three cents per mile, IIE WOULD un'rnus FROM PUB- LIC LIFE. The Colonel no doubt thought himself safe, away back in the 1 north country, in saying anything that sounded well, without a fear of its coming to the ears of people who knew better. Col. Sam made a wrong ’ guess that time, however. Anyone who knows anything about parliamen- tary proceedings is aware that there is a publication called “Hansard,” in which is published every word that is Spoken in the debates on the floor of the House, and that the members them- selves have proofs of their sayings sub- mitted to them before the speeches are printed for publication. Hansard is, therefore, correct beyond all question, and is never disputed.« Referring to Hansard, we find that, on‘duly 5th, The “Hecla” has four grate bars. Each one can be shaken separâ€" ately.

Col. Hughes seems to have got the idea into his head that his success in the present campaign depends upon the amount of abuse he can fire at Mr. R. J. McLaughlin. Or, perhaps, he is just do- ing it in an attempt to bamboozle the electors, and thereby prevent them ob- serving that he has no proper platform beneath his feet. Not having anything new to say about his one-time adversary, he is hawking around the Old dead lies about the fees andcommissions he re- ceived in the-.matter ‘of the drowned lands around ,Ca meron Lake. Col. Hughes brought this.matter up first in 1899, when- it was fully investigated by the Public Accounts Committee, and the folâ€" lowing is .a. .verbatim report of the find- ing of that committee : 2.: The - committee having had under ' its‘consideration accounts for legal ser- ' vices rendered in connection with claims for damages arising from the flooding of lands around Cameron Lake, along course of Trent Valley Canal : Charges having been made? by Mr. Hughes, M. P., that R. J. McLaughlin, Of Lindsay, extracted from the farmers around Cameron Lake 20 percent. Of the sum paid them for damages to their land ~ through flooding, such sums being paid . out of the treasury of the Dominion of . Canada, and, in addition to the above sum, had been paid his legal fees for his . connection with the settlement of these claims ; and, further, that lie canvassed the parties having these claims, and,‘pn account of being the political candidate the lasagencral-jelection, he used his po-_ litical influence to hold up the parties haying claims- aforesaidp for the purpose of extracting from them the 20 per cent.

In the church an entertainment of high merit will be given, beginning at 8 o’clock. The ladies of St. Andrew's are sparing no pains to make this occasion worthy of themselves and deserving of public pat- ronage. MONEY STOLENâ€"Upon returning from FenelonFalls, where he had been sell- ing some prodiice, on Wednesday of last week, Mr. John Wager, of Fenelon, ~ handed $37 in bills to his wife, who put the money into a purse, which she depos- ited in a desk in a bedroom adjoining the kitchen. On Friday morning it was discovered that the money had been stolen, though the purse was left; and suspicion naturally fell upon a young man named David Tiers, who had been doing chores for his board at M r. Tiers’s for 'avshort time past,.and ,who Adecamped. hurriedly on Thursday, cramâ€" ming a. collar andnqcktio into one of his pockets as. he-lei‘tsthe house.
