During the week the weather has been of a blaster-lug. cold and altogether dis- agreeable nature. reminding us very forcibly that winter is fast gpyroaching. Highest Prlroor The Weather- It is stated that considerable comment has arisen over our remarks on the ’I‘horah Fall Show and it is told that if the show was not all that could be ex- pected. we ought not to have said so. This journal is not in the habit of calling black white, or any other color than black and we could not honestly state the show to be a success when we knew it was not.

Mr. Johnson is ‘ on the right side on this question and i like every good citizen does not believe in intimidation when doing a public l duty. It is no crime to endeavor to en- foree a law and the man who undertakes t to do so is in a strong sense a public ‘ benefactor and one who should receive the protection and assistance of the (omniunitv. The trouble is there 'are i not enough men willing to cover their ; convictions with their actions and that l largely through fear of some unseen cou- . sequences. When one does rise superior to the common herd. he at once becomes the butt of an intense hatred from i the Opponents of his position and at the l same time lac does not receive that sup- port from those who favor his views, which he should._ This has been notably true of the Scott Act here lately. Two or three men have had to bear the brunt I of the enforcement of this law. An un. . popular one. it is true. among a certain l portion of the community, but at the 3 same time it is the law of the county a and as such. those who endeavor tohave : it enforced should receive honest sup- port. A large number of the voters of the county voted in favor of this law, Ievidenciug bv their action that they . were not in favor of the select intoxicat. l ing liquor and yet it one rises to put l their votes into practical and tangible ~ protest. the same voters will stand aloof i and let the individual suffer in cause. i quence. Such has been the case here. i Too much maudliu sympathy has been expended on men who in every action, openly and intentionly violate the law, as well as allow their hirelings to studi- ously insult those who happen to view the question differently. and who think that alaw which has been fought for should at least be accorded a fair trial.

The day was (leligl'n‘u: mn- sidering the weather, with whn-h ‘u'v- an: usually favored. A large number of pm- ple were present and although the snow was not in any sense up to its usual mark. enjoyed themselves. The best feature of the show this year was the horses. of which an excellent display was made. In cattle. the exhibit was light, although the animals present were good, while in sheep the entries in the various classes were numerous and of first-class quality. Roots and vegetables were a small ex- : hibit but good. Grain well represented, ‘ also poultry. In the inside department. | the usual large diSplay of ladies' work, ! was missing, the samples being far be- hind those of former years both in variety and number. Fruit came well tothe front this year and we also ob- served greater care is being taken in preserving to the various specimens their proper names. Altogether, the show could hardlybe called a success. The general impression current is that small shows have seen their best days and that they are doomed to an early extinction from the overpowering in- fluence of the larger exhilutious. Whether this be true or not, it is at pm. sent quite evident great indifierence is exhibited towards the shows, particu- larly by the farmers, who of all others are the ones who receive the greatest benefit from them. We believe it would be wisdom on the part of the Government to assist these fairs or shows even more generously than at present and at the same time revise the usual routine with a view to making them more emcient for the pur- pose intended. The large shows can never fill the place of the small local ones as a competitive stimulus and far more good to the community would be received if the latter were more gener- ously treated. Again, why not make these shows a market where everything .p pertaining to the farmers' calling would 'be bought or sold. particularly in the Mr. W. Bethune of Knox College who has been located at Cmuhmy during the summer. preached in the Presbyterian church here on Sabbath last. Mr. Bethune is a fervent and thoroughly earnest exponent of the sacred Scriptures and possesses a. forcible elm ueuco which is destined to place him in t 1e front rank of the church. ' Back Again.
