fixflgfi i“ wk. The proposed Gerrvmander shows .on the face of it an efiort to Streng- then the Liberal Party at the expense .of the Tories, to secure the return of the present government at the next general eleCtion. If, as the party claim. they are in power in re. Spouse to the powder will, and have made, during the past three year-931mb rapid Strides in advance, they shouldn‘t fear to meet the elec- torate without- the manipulations of a sustficious Gerrymander, esnecially whens redistribution can be made cons'itutionally after the lapse of another year or so. The people, however. are drawing their own in- ferences. The following excerpt from a speech delivered recently in the House by Dr. Sproule gives some light on how North Grey “"45 won for Mr. Patter- son. He says :-«"When we took the trouble to im‘eStigate that elec- tion. what did wefind ? We have in our prossession to-day nearly 900 st‘fidavits made by men who received money in that election to vote for the hon. gentlemen who is now sit- tingin this House, and] that work was done by the same men who man- ipulated the campaign for the party in other constituencies. Cap. Sulli- van and Sim Hewitt were there. In the face of the fact that we had. and still have. in our possession about 200 affidavits from men who received money at the time. the hon. Minister of Customs has represented that rid- ing over since. I say to his shame, and the shame of the countrv. Fuss (YMalley. third $05 of Mr, 10hr} O’Malley.

But the Globe was diapleased at their action and sent forth a lament- able howl againSt the body of ob- .Structionists, who prevented a flu- grant violation of the Constitution, by blocking a measure which the British North America. Act declares irregular, only after the taking of the decennial census. Nearly three columns of angrv blaster atte<ted And yet while the Liberals were in opposition, they howled with ap- parently holy indignation against ,the reckless extravagance of an un- holy Conservative administration, promising the peOple a retrenchment of two, three or perhaps four million dollars annually if the reins of gov- «.ermuent were only handed over to their party. They are now three years in power, but instead of reduc- ing the expenditure, it is being in- ._creased as the years roll on. This is ~no mere freak of fancy; this doesn’t emanate from partizan bigotry; this is a. plain, cold fact and the people know it to be true. \ot only do they ,know it but they feel themselves .the dupes of unfulfilled promises.

The remains of Mrs. Robert McKee, who died at her home in Owen Sound on Saturn- day last. were brought here for inte'ment on Monday morning. A large funeral eurtege followed the remains from the depot to the cemetery where the burial service w” conducted by Rev. A. J. Darroch. Deceased was the youngest daughter of the late Francis Thom psou of the 3rd line Ar- temesia, where she was bwrn 36 years ago. She has been in delicate health for several years and with her husband. who only sur- vives her. left the farm about three years agu to live in Owen Sound. Rev. L. W.

Mr. Faw- cett, who is 80 years of age is growing fee- ble and by the removal he can the better receive his son‘s kind attention in his de- clining days. Since coming to this village Mr. and M rs Faweett have made many friends who are sorry to see them leave. They will be specially missed in the Meth- odist Church services from which they were seldom absent. Mr, Fawcett disposed of his property to M r. Wm. Clark of ‘Marktlale \\ no is returning to this village to reside Mr. Fred LeGrard, barber, has disposed of his business here and is leaving this week to commence business in his line in To- ronto. With pupils who have worked hon- estly and failed. we sympathize; for the indolent and indifierent ones. we have very little pity, yet, let us hope that none will be discouraged. but rise up with a stronger determi- nation than ever to do better next time. Knowing something of the difficul- ties of school work, we can always rejoice over the success of the teach- ers and pupils. Moreover, we feel like taking the parents into our con- fidence and urging upon them the importance, for their own sake and the sake of their children, of enter- ing into a hearty co-operation with thefiteacher in carying out the noblest work in which any man or woman can be engaged. the development of the human intellect. There are others we might men- tion but we are not in possession of the facts, and therefore unable to re- fer to their individual cases. Mr. Thos. Collinson is keeping up the reputation of Edge Hill. Two passed for Entrance out of three can- didates that wrote, and three of the {our for Leaving were successful, the other having been awarded En- trance standing. Mr. F. Grant, and Miss Wolfe. of Bentinck, got all their candidates through. They had only one each, but even so it’s a satisfaction to see work that counts with the examiners at the end of the first six months of their teaching experience. Mr. W. L. Dixon. of No. 2, Egre- mont, had good success, but at pres- ent we are not able to give particuo Iars. Mr. Firth, of No. 1. Glenelg, passed 3 out: of 5 for Leaving. Mr. Mills, too, makes a good record on the High School Entrance work, twenty-two out of twenty-four hav- ing been reported amongst the suc- cessful ones. a number coming up well towards the top of the list. Grace Everett heads the school here and leads the list in South Grey with 793 marks, and R. Kelly comes sec- ond with 764. Geo. Reid of Dromore. who passed with 788 marks. stands second in South Grey Inspectorate, proper. The teacher, Miss M. Scott, has won anonher laurel as a ru- ral trainer. l â€" ”Durham School has again done ex- cellent work, Principal Allan had fifteen candidates for the Leaving Examination. Thirteen of these were successful, and the remaining two satisfied the examiners that they were entitled to Entrance standing. In this examination, too, Durham School has the honor of passing Miss Nellie Moran. who leads the Inspec- torate with 94?. marks out of a pos- sible 1250. It is but fair to mention that till Christmas Miss Nellie was. under thetraining of Mr. Huston at‘ Ayton. The results of the High School Entrance and Public School Leaving examinations appear in this issue. Though we anxiously waited till the ,last moment before sending out our :last week’s paper we were unable to give it. â€"Many a young heart was made glad on Friday last as the names and marks appeared on the CHRONICLE bulletin board, and, no doubt, some were just as sadly dis- appointed at seeing they had not been successful in passing the dread- ed ordeal.
