HIGH CGURT OF JUSTICE APRIL 10 THREE CASES BEFORE CHANCELLOR BflYD The High Court of Justice with jury opens on April 10th with Chan« cello: Boyd presiding. There are three cases for consideration, as fol- Mr. James McCaughey, of Uphill. was in town on Friday and the Post had a short conversation-with him in reference to the survey work being carried on by the C.N.R. in Dalton and Laxton townships. Mr. eCaughey was informed by a member of the surveying party that the new line would be built as a grain route, although it is hinted that the C.N.R., being fully alive to the importance of the highlands of Ontario as, atourist centre, is anxi- ous to tap the Haliburton county. which is a paradise for tourists and LAWYERS 0F PROVINCE ARE ASKING FOR A HIGHER TARIFF 0F FEES for a higher tariff of fees: The salar- ies of all officials, of clerks, of work- ing men employed in all kinds of businesses, have increased about 100 per cent in the past twenty years and no word of protest has been uttered against ,the increase yet, so ingrained is the idea that lawyers are a. lot of bloodsuckers battening upon the public and giving next to nothing in return for what is paid them, that it will be diflicult to convince anyâ€" .05 lawyers, the High Court and I County Court :‘udges, acting under inâ€"; sanctions from the government draw} 11p atarifi of fees providing a fixed charge for everything that a lawyer «306 in any case.

Calian for $3000 for \damages sustained when their horse became frightened at Mr. Callan's automobile. throwing Mrs. Isaacs out and breaking her hip. The C.N.R. line at present runs from Port Severn through Washago, and will branch ofl through»Victoria county to Kinmount, and tap the I. B. 0., railway. The C.N.R. in- tends to completely overhaul the :I.B. 0. line this summer. Those in charge of the survey work in this county are at present in the vib'snity of Head Lake. The proposed line will be as straight as possible, with a. perfectly level grade. It is felt by some that the con- struction of this line means the loss to Lindsay of considerable trade, which will be diverted towards Oril- dér. It will be seen from this how im- possible it is for a lawyer to do any blood-sucking'whatever in the conduct of a case in the courts of law. The last tarifi of costs prepared by the judges was, we believe, in 18-82. For twenty years, therefore, the lawyers have been getting the same fees, though the cost of living has gone up IOOVper cent in that time and \ev- ery other man in Canada has been getting a gradual advance in his re- muneration for services rendered, till now in most callings his wage or salary is 100 per cent higher than it was in 1-892.« That does ;.ot look much like blood-sucking on the part of the lawyers. They have-not made a move for higher fees during the whole of that time, though they have seen ev- eryone else about them enjoying greatly increased salaries and wages. However, even the worm will turn, and though lawyers realize that vir~ tue is its own reward, they feel that virtue may be more pleasant with a. little more kudos thrown in. The Provincial Government recently appointed a Board of County Court judges to undertake an investigation of the tarifi of fees in both the 'Surro A FRIEND IN NEED. gate and county courts. Mr. H. A. Locke, secretary of the Board, has received a great deal of correspond- ence on the question of feesâ€"corres- pondence which shows that lawyers have been inadequately paid for their services in both these courts, but es- pecially in the Surrogate Court. The Board of Judges comprise Judges H. S. MacDonald, chairman, Brockvil-le; A. C. Chadwick, Guelph; J. E Hardâ€" ing, Lindsay; A. D. Hardy, Brant- ford; E. C. S. Huycke, Peterboro; Mr. J. B. MacDonald, Inspector of Division Courts, ex-ofiicio member. The average lawyer in the United Statesparns less than $700 a year ; the average lawyer in the smaller towns in Ontario earns less than $600 in his purely professional capacity. The average workingman now earns more than that. It is little wonder, therefore, that the lawyers think it is their turn for higher fees. TORONTO CASE OF SUMMARY INJUSTICE‘ Examiner: While the summary trial by ,police magistrates, of persons acâ€" cused of crime, often obviates long} terms of confinement in jail whilei awaiting trial in the higher courts, ! it sometimes results in more prompt, } but not more equitable administraâ€"‘ ticn of justice. A man in Toronto‘ was charged, before a police magisâ€"1 trate, with the offence of selling pork‘ pics that, as alleged, gave a patron‘, cramps and indigestion. The magis- trate accepted the opinion of the suf- ferer, that the pies caused the indi- gestion, and unsupported by any ex- pert medical evidence. It is easily possible that the cramps and indiges- tion might have been due by many other causes. Yes, ‘without taking the pains to verify the guess of the pro- secutor, the magistrate inflicted a fine of $20 and costs. on a charge that any reasonable person would say was not proven, only assumed; and) he refused to listen to the defend- ant’s statement that he was not re- sponsible anywayâ€"he had purchased the pies from a wholesale maker. All the comfort the defendant could get was the exasperating statement of the magistrate that he had “a splen- did chance for damages in a. civil suit"â€"as compensating for the in- justice he had suffered at- the hands of the too easily convinced magis- trate. This is perhaps a small mat- ter. but it serves to strengthen the impression that in these rapidly con- ducted police court trials, a great deal of taking for granted and a great deal of. injustice is done, petty perhaps as regards any particular PETERBORO MAN case, but mighty in throwing discre- dit upon the quality of Canadian jus- tice. Vancouver, B. 0., March 27â€"When a. scafiold gave way at a. mill at False Creek yesterday, Albert Par- rish, a young machinist, whose par- ents live in Toronto, was killed. He was thrown into the water, with sev- eral hundreds pounds of iron above him. While no autnentic word has been received here, the above despatch corâ€" responds to the particulars concern- ing one Albert Parrish, who left this city two weeks ago en- route for Van- couver. Prior to his leaving the city he was employed at the C.G.E. as a machinist, and a letter has been re- ceived from Parrish by his father-in- law, Mr. John Sadler, 466; Gilmour st., in which the writer states that he had secured work as a machinist in a mill at False Creek. He leaves a wife and child who reside in this city at 165 Romaine street. The first notification that his relatives here had of the young man’s demise was contained in the above despatch, which appeared in the Tbronto pa- pers. Mr. Sadler, father-inâ€"law oi the de- ceased, wired to Vancouver this afâ€" ternoon ~for further particulars. Mr. Frank' Sadler, 581 Patterson street, is a brother-in-law of the 'deceased.

An information was made out and court was held, but on being approached by a Review representa- tive this afternoon County Magis- trate Edmison would make no state- ment as to what course was taken.

THE LINDSAY POST: KILLED 1N WEST A BLIND PIG Ottawa, March 2'8â€"That wholesale ' prices in Canada have been the high- est invthe past year since 1872 is stated in a special report by Mr R. .‘H. Coats, of the labor department, itabled teday by the Hon. Mr. Cro- i there. ~_-- COST OF LIVING The upward movement, he says was particularly pronounced in the last six months of 1911. Wholesale prices in 1910 were approximately 24 per cent. higher than in the closing do.- cade of the last century and during 1911 they rose to over 27 per cent. above that basis. Crop shortage ac- centuated consumption. The present high level is the culmination of a. movement which began in 1909. Campbellford Herald: This should be a good year for maple sugar. The great quantitv of snow in the woods must of necessity take'some time in disappearing, and while it is in the process of melting the sugar maple will be pouring forth fits liquid sweet- ness from which such delicious syrup is made. The report gives columns of figures of prices showing the gradual rise in dairy products, fish, fruits, vegeta- bles, provisions, groceries, boots, shoes, fuel, house furnishings, drugs, oil, tobacco and textiles. Summed up it is stated that the cost of living has increased 45 per cent. during the past ten years, and that since last year, wholesale prices have climbed 3 per cent, and retail prices 5 per cent.

BLOCK An old landmark on Kent street is fast passing away, viz., the stores 3 recently occupied by Messrs. G. W. 3 Beall and J 03. Carroll. This building l which is owned by Mr. G. W. Beall, . is now in process of being town down 1 and a new and modem structure will I be erected in its stead. Friday afternoon a Post reporter was i interviewed a number of old timers, Flave and gleaned some interesting infor- there mation about the history of this Mr. building. The property was owned by busin the late Andrew Healy, previous to, "‘Beai and for a while after the “big fire" karat which occurred in July, 1-861. In 1862 in th he built the .two stores now there. congr Mr. R. 8. Porter occupied the east spirii store for twentyâ€"five or thirty years himi and conducted a bookstore, after- ters. wards locating in his present store Mr‘ in the Knowlson block. the e The first occupant of the west store after the fire was the late John Moore, who was a tinsmith. He was followed by two grocers, Messrs Dan Maloney and John Duck. The late Andrew Healey sold the two stores to the late Edward Ben- son, who disposed of them to the late John Kennedy. The buisding then passed into the hands of the present owner, Mr. G. W. Beau. Mr. Porter stated to the Post man that building material was quite scarce after the fire and that for some time the roof of the store Was WIDRRIS BERARRED FROM THE GRANTS ALL FENIAN RAID VETERANS RECOGNIZED Ottawa, March 27.â€"-The bill under which the men who took the field against the Fenians in 1866 and 1870 are to receive an allowance at $100 apiece, was reported by the Commit- tee of the whole house to-nigh't. The Minister of Militia Col. the Hon. Sam Hugh: 5 explained that it was a recognition, albeit a very small one, of those who had turned out to defend the country against invasion. Mr. CarveH, of Carleton, N.B. said that his father had taken part in the repulsion of the raiders. and wished to know just how he would stand in regard to the grant. Eot that the grant itself amounted to very much, but that he would like to have his father participate in the recognition. At this point Sir Wilfrid Laurier took a hand in the discussion. He said that he had received a petition which made a very strong caSe for the extension of the grant to widows of veterans. And, having quoted from the petition, he added, “I think I may leave the case of the widows to the tender mercies of my hon. friend, the Minister of Militia.” The bill as reported from the Con:â€" mittee of the Whole makes it clear that the grant shall apply not only to residents in Canada but also to time: who, having served in the defence u; the country, subsequently toék up their residence in the United States. ORILLIA FACTORY WAS BESTROYED (Special to The Post.) ! Orillia, March 27sâ€"J. R. Eaton ‘ Sons’ sash and door factory was de- stroyed by fire at noon today. Five minutes after the workmen had left the building, fire was discovered in! the roof .space above the upper storm? and in a few minutes the whole' building was in flames The fire bri- gade did excellent work, and confined' the tire to the building in which iti originated; This was a large, metal-‘ clad, two story frame building. The engine and boiler room and the dry- kiln adjoining were saved, as were also the stock sheds in the yards.‘ The Minister replied that he had obtained the consent of his Royal Highness to an amendment of the bill which would allow those to partici- pate in the grant who did not now happen to be living in Canada. But as for extending the grant to widows of veterans, the~ Minister was not in- clined to yield. "Why,” said Col. Hughes, “I know; one veteran who has left three; widows, and what should be done in? acase of that kind?" he added. Seri-i ously, there were objections to ex- tend the grant to Widows, which would be appreciated by the House. TO GO OUTSIDE CANADA. ' Then, after discussion, the Ministeri moved to amend his bill so as 0*. make the grant available to veterans; who were not now living in Canada! Col. Hughes said that there were; many men living to-day in the; United States who in the time of stress had come over to the Canadian? side of the line and served as defend-5 ers of the country. As a matter Of? fact, numbers of them had engaged: special trains to take them. to this? side of the line. I will Mr. Beall has occupied the west. 1 store since 1900. Previous to that he rter was in a store where the Dundas .ers, Flavelle store is now, moving in Lfor- . there in the year 1864. this Mr. Beall is one of the pioneer l by business men of Lindsay. The name to, “Bean" is synonymous with good 18 ire" karat standard.

It was his practice on the approach of a rain storm, to cover his stock with a tarpaulin to pro- tect it from the water which would drip through. Mr. Joseph Carroll has been in the east store since 190-1. In 1894 he was in a store where Mr. Geo. Brown’s billiard parlor is now, and in the spring of 1895 he moved across the street next to Mr. Bean, where the Canadian Express Co. have their office. Since that time these two gen- tlemen have been doing business side by side. Before Mr. Carroll moved inâ€" to the east store it was occupied by Misses Paton, milliners, and previous to that by Miss Foster, dressmaker. The new structure will be a mark- ed improvement on the present one, and will add greatly to the appear- ance of the main street. A G.T.R. yard engine pulled some twenty cars of lumber away from the sidings close to the burning building. The mill and machinery are a. total wreck. The fire happened at an exâ€" ceedingly unfortunate time, as all the stock accumulated during the winter was in the building. The loss is about seventy thousand dollars, pretty well covered by insurance. Mr J. R. Eaton, president of the con- cern, is ‘in Bermuda and until his re- turn no definite plans for the future can be given out. The omces. which are in a separate building, were not damaged. About sixty men are thrown out of employment. COLLISONâ€"In Lindsay, on Monday March 25, to Dr. W. Giles Collison and Mrs. 001118011, :1 daughter.
