'l‘mc Liberal success in the late Fed- eral election by which the province of Quebec captured forty-four out of fifty- fivc seats led to a dissolution of the Quebec provincial government, and an unmediate call for a new election. The day after the Dominion elections the house was dissolved, when the 18th of this month was fixed as nomination day and the 25th as polling day, the object evidently being to geta snap verdict for the Liberal party while political excitement is high and the Liberal party is likely to sweep the ; country in the interests of the Parent ; government. The conservatives of the ‘ province have entered their protest against this high handed and uncon- stitutional action of the Quebec gov- ernment and have issued their mani- lfesto against this act of the admin- I istration, and declared they will placel no candidates in the field, believing that their refusal to countenance such conduct will be the quickest and surest remedy for the evil. In 1900 a similar outrage was committed. and the op- position at that time believe they did wrong by entering the contest. The country is in a sad condition'when the , Federal and Provincial governments , thus unite to defeat justice and the people of their honest rights. 1st, 1906 for $1, to new subscribers, with Christmas number also.

THE Luca] Legislature is likely to be dissolved this week and an election will be held between now and Christ- mas. It is said that Premier Ross will go to the country on the I’rohihitimi. ticket. and notwithstanding his past record of unsincerity, a great manv of the tempe °anee people will again be duped. The old Quaker is reported to have said “ If a man cheat thee once it is his fault, but if he (-heat thee a second time it is thy fault." Ross has evidently begun to look upon the tem- perance people as a mere. pack of fools whom he can always play to for a 'atch vote. He has cheated them every time and he’ll try it again. Stout and Lanky had a scrap And hit each other tap for tap, Till stout got in some special blows And knocked the skin of Lanky’s nose This nettlcd Lanky and he led A vicious blow for St'outie’s head, But Stoutie was to quick for him And sent a hard right to the chin: I mnky winced and made a spurt, A scrimmage followed, and his shirt \Vas torn completely off his back, And then he got another smack \Vhich, landing on his salar plexus Like the kick of mule from Texas Sent him down with groanings loud Amidst the laughter of the crowd. He soon legained his feet once more, And then good gracious! how he swm e \\ hat he w ould do when next they met But Stoutie told him not to fret i ‘ That if he would so much as list His skinny carcas he would twist Till he would have Neuresthena And Toxin in the chylne And his sympathetic ganglion \Vould be Working overtime These solemn words made Lanky stare The wrangling ended then and there And should they in the future clash \Ve all will go and bet our cash.

After being unheard from for some time we again arise from our silence and give a few of the happenings of our quiet little burg. - Laet week found'most of our far- mers actively engaged at root har- vesting. The crop is an excellent one. Mr and Mrs Jas. Main left on Fri- day last one. driving tour to visit friends near Hamilton. Mr. Will Beaton and sister of Glenelg Centle are looking after the duties of the farm during their absence. Mr and Mrs Wm. Watson spent the fore part of the week with Allen Park friends. Mr Will Davis of Glenelg Centre spent Sunday in this neighborhood. C. Moore has, we understand pur- chased the farm formerly owned by him for the sum of $3.000. The Lawrence Hall Union S. 5. was brought to a close on Sunday last. after another very successful season’s work. They intend having a concert in the near inture. (This Week’s Budget) (This Week’s Budget) Mr. A. J. \Vhitmore has returned from the West looking hale and hearty. angry-George Myers disposed of a horse to Mr. C. McKiunon for a good sum lately. Mr. Joseph Lawrence sold a. team of horses to Mr. George Myers for the magnificent sum of $360. Gordon Wilson is engaged with Samuel Scott fora term. W. Frocks. of Paocon. Spent Sun- day with the Eckhardt, family. ““4 Mr. John Eckbardc spent the fore part of the week with friends near Ayton. Mr. and Mrs. George Myers treated the young people of the neighbor- hood to aparty on Wednesdy night last. The Pie and Box Social given by L. O. L. No. 1192 on Tuesday night was an out and out success. The excellent roads and beautiful night brought. together one of the largest gatherings that ever entered the doors of Lawrence’s Hall The chair was occupied bs Mr. Wm. Ritchie who kept the crowd in good humor during the evening while the boxes were knocked down by Mr. James Staples who makes a capital auction- eer. Some of the boxes ran up to $2.25. The purehaser secured his partners and did ample justice to the contents. The prOgram was long and well chosen, consisting of instru- m’ental music, songs, recitations, dia- logues etc. The committeee, is to be speciallv congrotulated on having se- cured the services of the Boothville torchestra which furnished well ren- ldered music throughout the evening. The following also took an active part and each won hearty encores: Song by the Misses Brown, of Hon- ry’s Corners, Rscitation by Pearl Hapkins, Song by Mrs S. J. Watson and siSter, Miss Irvine, of Holstein, Recitation by Alice Irvine. Song by the Misses Wilson, of Boothville, Recitation by Reuben Watson, Reci tation by G. A. Watson. Perhaps the chief feature of the evening was a couple of dialogues entitled ”The Wrong Box" and “Fnd in a Restaur- ant”, both of which were well car- ried out, each character playing his part well. It was an evening profit- ably and enjoyably spent by all and one seldom equalled. 'Phe net proceeds of the evening which amounted to $45 will go tow- ards the erection of a new Hall which they purpose building in the near future.
