We have the satisfaction of feeling, nothwithstanding the efforts made to choke us off, that we have during the whole fight, been honest with ourself and honest with the stockholders. The town is of course anxious to keep the mill in Durham, but what would be the use of a. cement plant, covering five or six acres of ground if we didn‘t have the raw material to feed it? At considerable expense we have satisfied ourselves, there is material in abun- dance, and we are confident our con- tentions will be fully established by the reports of the experts engaged. Now we re off to the annual meet- This campaign has now gone on since the issue of November 9th. We shall not be called on in future to write at such length in all probability, but we are still determined to keep stockholders posted on the working of the plant so far as it will be to the in- terest of the Company and the stock- holders to know the facts as we can get them. The annual meeting of the National Portland Cement Co.. is being held this week in Toronto, but the results I are not available for this week’s issue. :The dying directors are putting up a ; big fight. but so far as we can at pres- ] ent see from the popular feeling of the . stockholders there is but very little chance for their return to power. Of course one can never tell till the last ballot is counted. The circulation of a printed letter asking stockholders to revoke their proxies was a mere roor- bach, and though some may be influ- enced by it we feel it is too old a trick to carry much weight. An opportune time was taken of course, as we find in all such tricks, and no opportunity was given to make any denial by the public press. To discuss the contents of the letter in question would be no use now, but had we the opportunity of doing so we would be able to show it a mere trick, and almost, if not al- together destitute ot‘ truth. \Vhat- ever the result of the meeting may be, we hope next week to be able to re- port a new directorate, and we hope the choice made will be a wise one and that the mill may continue in the fu-‘ ture as it has during 1905, to run on a? good paying basis, and yield a hand-1 some profit to those who spent their I money in bringing 1t into exnstenoe.

The thanks : of the universe will be due him if he can further some scheme to unite the Czar and the maple. ‘ i Will Evans, Ban J ohnson’s new baseball umpire, tells of a. game he umpired in Ohio. The home team lost and he had to run for it. He was slow and the crowd caught him, and mud, stones, sticks, fists, and in fact every- thing that could inflict an injury were called into play. Hesays there’s noth- ing could equal it for rowdines. Evi- dently he never refereed a lacrosse game in Owen Soundâ€"when Owen Sound lost. Stratford people are short of fiction. They should encourage some of our politicians to become residents, espec- ially those who will persist in giving you the reason “Why we voted for the Autonomy Bill.” weather to talk lacrosse too. Well. we’re not going toâ€"not this Week any- way, but there’s no reason Why you shouldn’t, if you expect to go into the field next summer. Three or four months wifl soon slip by and if you don’t start in soon, it will be a hard matter to get going right. We have no hesitation in saying that Durham can and will support a lacrosse team if the team themselves pitch in and show that they’re out to win and mean hus- iness. Just think it over. If it’s good. call a meeting, and if its not, suit yourselves. But there’s one thing you can paste in your next summer’s hatâ€"- If you’re going to play lacrosse, you‘ll have to work, and get into some kind of shape before the first schedule C. L.

Probably some of you know this, b'ut we are just telling you in case you don’t. Seems a long time doesn’t it? And rather cool Mrs. Chas. T. Yerkes, widow of the late Chas. T. Yerkes who died a. month ago, is reported to have been married to \Vilson Mizuer of San Francisco. She says its a lie, and Mizuer and the preacher say it isn’t. Perhaps they had better do it over again and make sure. A German gun-boat is about to make an important trip up the Parana. river to Asuncion, South America.

Though apparently soaring Skyward in its ideas, as evidenced by the local option vote of a month ago, Owen Sound must, at present he almost as hot as the other place gets credit for. The hockey team, that which they have spent monts in organizing, also months in bragging about (before the ice came) has lost. Orangeville has beaten them twice, tied them once; Collingwood, ditto and Mcaford re- peated the dose before they got back home. Surely the referees must be rank to allow this. Of course it was not to the poor playing of the team the defeats are due, merely partiality on the part of the referee.â€"â€"â€"So say Owen Sounders. Chauncy M.
