Library Lamps. Very cheap at Higinbotham’s DEAR Simâ€"The Warder is opposing! the lowering of the dam, and says that all honest, sensible men agree with him. Well, as we do not agree with him, we suppose he will class us, as he did Joseph McGill. amongst the fools. VVhaJ: we want is to be able to use the land we bought without having to wade through the water to get at it. It is a serious matter to lose so much land as is now drowned every year, and a great deul of what is not actually under water we are E prevented from working properly. " ~ LLAL «Anna vmn'nla think that To the Editor of The Watchman. revcuucu nu... .. v- ___o It appears that some people think that‘ all such land would be useless swamp after the dam would be taken down. That is a great mistake, and we know it; and we are satisfied that instead of injur- ing the health of the people it would be a great benefit to get rid of the yearly flooding of our higher lands. If it is dis- honest to look for our own land, that is a new doctrine, which may suit the Warder and those who want to keep the dam up, but we do not believe in it.

Ithought for awhile that I’d not have a. bit of my throat left, or an inch of my tongue, and that I might not be able to raise my voice again against the doings of our councillors. But I thought that my hands would be left anyway; and that so long as there would be one paper in town thnt could not be kept quiet by the town printing, I would be able to wield a pen and let people know just what is going on. I tell you what, Mr. Editor, it was a great consolation to me at that time; but here I am, as sound as a bell, as pa. says And you need not be afraid of there being any microbes or such things sticking to this paper. Pa. says “there are no flies on this wheel”; that’s the way he puts it; because when I got better of the diph- theria. he sent me off to Bobcaygeon, where he said the air was purer and there were fewer experimenting doctors to let loose microbes and such things out_ of bottles, and no boodling, blundermg councillors to disturb my equilibrium. I tell you what, pa. knows what is good for Dun Mn. Enrronlâ€"It is now along time since I wrote you last; but I tell you what I’ve had an' awful time since then. Do you know, Mr. Editor, I’ve had the @phtheria. It’s almost as bad as me. Well, Mr. Editor, I must tell you when I got the diphtheria, I asked pa to let me be isolated in a tinshop, but he said that they don’t do things that way; now. But I said that doctors with very ‘ long titles and from French colleges, do it that way, and also give gallons of whiskey; but he said, “Mary, we’re not going to have that crowd around here.” And then I asked him to let me be sent to our new hospital, and oh! you should have seen the look pa crave. I know he would have killed some of 'our councillors if they had been there. But he calmed down and said “Mary. we live in a town that is ruled by those who feed at the government crib, or who grow fat upon the labors of others, who toil not, neither do they spin, but who grini the face of the poor by imposing burdens that they may feed themselves or their satellites, and when the poor ask for bread which they have paid for they give them a stone.” Oh, I tell you what, Mr. Editor, I thought it was the preacher that was talking, or the Commodore as I have often heard him at the council when he ‘ is worked up to a high pitch. I can’t tell jyou half of what he said. but the ‘rest of them had to go and live in the ;barn, and pa was not allowed to goto 3 work, because I could not be sent to the ‘hospital, as it had to be rented. Pa says ; if there’s justice to be had under heaven 1 he’ll make the town pay the wages he lost land damages for our family’s sufl'erings Ibesides; because he says our Constitution will not let a man be taxed for what he don’t get anything for. That is what pa says, and everybody says he’s right. To the Editor qf 17w Watchman. Well, Mr. Editor, when I came back the other day, pa. was in awfully good humor, and told me a. whole lot of what had been going on when I was away. He says these insurance men are rattlers. He says that one of them blew up half the school board higher than Gilroy’s kite, and that when one of the boodlers ran again the ratepayers snowed him fathoms under. He says he only wishes some of the councillors had trod on that fellow’s toes, and We’d have seen the fur lUlLUW a DUUB, auu "v u. uuvv uvvo- ---- __._ fly. Pa says that when the elections come we’ll give them a taste of powder. Pa says that some of the wirepullers tried to work up the waterworks and electric light wrinkle so as to get a big job ready for the future. but that the Commodore and the Doctor bust their little game by calling a public meeting. Pa says he'll throw some electric light upon their doings before the year’s out. I asked pa how the road machine man has been get- ting along, and Whether he has been taking any constitutional rides upon his hobby lately. “Oh,” says pa, “he’s hung it up to dry for the winter, but he’s got enough to do yet." Pa. says that the street and bridge committee have spent nearly 85,000 this year, and all the lumber cost is about $1,200! so that it takes $3 in Lindsay to lay $1 worth of plank. He says that in one place in the ,orth Wardâ€"“jist beyant ye there, l dochtor,”â€"the r. m. man spent $25 to lay down $15 worth of plank. “That’s how the money goes, Mary,” says pa, “but I’ll let the people know where the ‘nigger in the . fence roosts’, Mary.” “When you get stronger, Mary, I’m going to tell you about your ‘fair-haired boy’ and the assessment,” said pa to me at last. But he wouldn’t tell me what he meant, as he said it would touch me on a tender point. He said that the council might as well hand back the dog-taxes, as the whole town had gone to the animals anyway. I’m going to see Mr. Mallon to-morrow, to get him to run for reeve. leading Features of the Grain and Produce Markets at Home and Abroad.
