There is a danger that too many self seeking aspirants will he in the field and divide, the vote so as to f render it ineffective. Elections are like horse races, you can never tell till i the winning post is reached, what the ‘ result will be. There should be con- ' certed action on the pa1t of the stock- . holders and as w e have already stated i we should be willing to concede many . points in order to have effective action. 5 So far we have not mentioned any Enames in particular, except Mr. Mc- E Kechnie, for the next board. Last week Mr. Hodgert, of Exeter, was in town looking up votes with a View of getting on the board of direc- tors. From what he said he was opâ€" lposed to the present board, and was strong on getting a new set of directors. The Exeter Times of the 25th of l January reports a meeting of the local ‘stockholdels.

A RARE chance to huya good cluthcs cimnp at Mockler’s Red Salt: Mr. H. H. Farr, who has been super- intendent of the Cement \Vorks since they began operations, resigned his position and leaves this week to enter on duty at an early date in a cement mill on the other side of the line. Mr. Farr was very popular with the em- ployees of the company and was al- ways regarded as a hard worker and a good citizen. 0! late he has been de- termined in decrying the chances of the mill, and in condemning the niarl. In view of the good report put in by Mr. Wood, the independent expert, we cannot understand why he should have done so. We respect Mr. Farr for getting out when he felt the tide of opinion was turning against him. \Vho knows but he may have been misled ?

At their own request the two first were allowed to rest after a long and honorable service of some 2-1 years. Many were the complimentary remarks passed by the brethren on these long years of willing, faithful and capable service and a very hearty and special vote of thanks was tender- ed them by the meetino. In their places, Messrs. Wm. \Veir and Dan McArthur were elected for the next term. day last and the congregation is re- joicing in having passed another an- nual milestone in its history with the Winning flag still unfurled. Our Re- ports, presented in printed form, of the various organizations through which the Church is carried on showed not only a successful year financially and numerically, but from the interest manifested throughout the year, the harmony prevailing in all departments of the work, the good-will towards each other and towards the sister de- nominations, and the generally regular attendance of the congregation at the regular serviCes of the Church it is be- lieved that the higher interests of the congregation are also in a flourishing condition. During the year the Manse property was purchased and the ex- penses were necessarily higher on that account but the contributions rose proportionately so that in due time the congregation will, as before, be free from debt.
