It was Press Day at the exhibition, when many of the newspaper men of the Province count on having a gen- eral io-union. But it Was VOtlllg day in Durham. Three Byfelaws were to be voted on and We stay:- at home to vote. Failures some- times occur by over confidence. It isn't right to take too many chances on important measures. You should never forget that other peoiile may feel just as cer- tain as you do that the vote will go right and they have just as good an excuse, perhaps, as you have to stay away from the poll. Every one should vote one way or the other. All have the right to use their own judgment and we have no quarrel with the man who votes differently from the way we do. There are other reasons why some do not vote as well as the “dead sure of success” reason, or perhaps better call it excuse. We are fully confident that some re- train from v ting because -th_ey lack the con age to assert them- selves as men. Such weaklings are to be pitied or despised and do not deserve the right to vote. The varld admires a manly man but in very little use for a mouse. The man who has a business should be always on the job, u.- have somebody to take his place should he happen to be absent. It doesn‘t pay to have customers call round and find no one on deck who is capable of supplying their requirements. A disappoint- ed customer is naturally a dissat- isfied customer, and may soon withold his patronage entirely. In times of keen competition, every business requires to be carefully looked after, and everything in reason done to meet the require- ments of the customer. On the other hand, the business man has rights, and he should see that these rights are respected. He should have a mind of his own, and not move to suit the whims of evervbody who dictates to him. Even the publisher of a local paper should be a man amongst men. The Mount Forest Confederate is 8 little distressed over the way the new Canadian cows are stampeu, having the King 3 head and 'the re- Verse side at the coin stampuu with the tap the same way. He thinks the British way is the better when one wishes to examine a coin on both sides, and he fails to see any auvantage in the new way of stamping. Surely that U‘l'll GOVernment at Ottawa must be sinking into a horrible state when the Confed. man can see anything about it that hasnt the appear.- ance of being just exactly right. The evil must be remedied right awav so that the names of Sir \Vil- rid Laurier and his confreres may go down to history without a sin- gle stain on their political escutp. checns. It is always a good thing for an employee tn make the boss £331 him an absolute necessity to the success of the business. 0! course there is no man whose place can not be filled by some one else just as good, and it is well for emloyees to realize this fact also. As amat- ter of fact, however, most employ)- ers prefer the man who has proved his gomlness to the man Whose worth to them has yet to be estab- lished. The merits of every good man should he recognized by his employer, and should be paid Well for his services, or he should have perfect liberty to go who're he. can do best for himself. Good men are not blowing about their ability. They seldom need to do any tooting. .A“ h? we were 0 selves. known, ten jus don't k flu for p curse think and mak they did we did r expand. not wh gale-g rease.

When Calder and Laidlaw Open up their throttles on Pig Pen Pol.- itics they make more noise than two pigs under a gate. Even yet. the idea of a park; need not be lost sight of. If a hedge or other fence were run back from the new market build-‘ ing to the river there would be a. strip 70 feet wide that could be. fitted up very nicely for park pur- poses. If this were level-ed, seed: ed planted with trees and proper- ly seated, and well kept, it would be sufficient for years to come. “The idea of a park beside a, pig pen," says somebody, in der-I ision, but just wait, and a year's experience will not reveal any. serious objection 'on account of thei smell or other annoyances. Again” should a town hall ever be placed When lhogs run up to nearly ten dollars a hundred, live weight. any charitable man will excuse a person for saying he is a lover of pigs. As far as the farmers are con- cerned, we think the most of them will be satisfied with the scale on the new site. When the difficul- ties of getting anything better, and at convenient distance to both railway stations is mentioned they seem to realize the situation perfectly, and as one man said only a day or two ago, the only difference would be in the ship- ping of hogs and light stock. For hay and cattle the new site, ac- cording to his opinion, was ail right. is about as convénient as any that could be obtained, and farmer bringing in hay to all down town customers especiallv, can scarcelv look for a more central location. As we said previously, we would prefer the appearance of a well kept park to that of a market building, but the cry of years made a change of the latter an absolute necessity if we are to reâ€" tain the custom and good-will of the farming community. For the shipping of hogs and small stock brought to town. it would doubt- [63> be more convenient to have the scale where re-loading before turning into the railway yards would be unnecessary.
