flood-gate of enthusiasm bursting open. There has been a feeling down deep in the hearts of the people since the issue of the coniniissiones’ report that Gurney did not get fair play. They have been brsoding over it for weeks. and the fire of\pent up indigna- tion has been smouldering. Waiting for the faintest breath to blow. (iam- ey’s friends became restless, they de- manded a. meeting where they might express their desires. The meeting on Friday last was a record breaker in more ways than one. Such united enthusiasm we have never before seen displayed. Many who never took part in politics were there. You could see. the British sense of justice coming to the surface saying “Gamey must have fair play.” The feeling that the Commissioners had prostituted their position in attempting to crush an individual to save the rotten rulers of a state was prominent in that meet- in that meeting, and brought forth the slogan “Gamey must have fair play," the individual who tries to expose wrong must not he persecuted by hire- ]ings of the machine. The question is not one of party politics, strictly speaking, it is the liberty of the sub- ject that is now at stake. DURHAM CHRONICLE MacFARLANES’ The enthusiasm with which the ban- quet to R. R. Gamey has been received is beyond all conception. It must be described as nothing less than the Church’s Potato Finish and other Insecticides at Strictly Pure Durham. July 30. WW- The banquet which will he tendered to R. R. Gainey in (lore Bay on the filth instant, is largely the outcome of the feeling that he has not had justice. that an attempt has been made to ruin him in order to save others. Ivery intelligent/indivitlual who has read the evidenre and the Commis- sioner’s report, must subscribe to that position. It is not a question of party politics, or a question of grit or tory, it is simply a question of what is right.-Algouia Conservator. RONEGENERIAN IN THE PULPIT. Few of frail mortals live through I the four score years, long ago marked 3 as the limit of human strength: fewer i still reach that period who do not find I that their strengzh is “ labor and sor- 3 row." The Reverend Mr. Stewart of ; this town is to be congratulated, not ‘ only on passing the four score and ten, '3 but in his possessing such strength of ; body and warmth of heart, that he is l still able to take his part in life’s i struggles, and is still in possession of : those qualities of heart and mind that i make and hold admiring friends. i Rev. Mr. Stewart Delivers a Force- fnl Reminescent Address. Early in the spring. during a time of sickness, Mr. Stewart expressed the. desire that he might be spared once again to address the Presbyterian con- gregation in testimony of the happy relations that have so long existed between him and the members of that church, some of whom remain. though many of his dearest friends have fdlen asleep. Through a kind Providence be was spared. and last Sabbath his desire was gratified. As was natural, be dealt [largely with things that happened in the days that are gone. . When he came to Upper Canada there were only five Presbyte. flan ministers. Two of these were in Toronto. one in Guelph, one in ‘Zorra. and one in Amherstburg. The two in Toronto went over to the Church of England, the one in Amherstbnrg to the Moi-rhodium. leaving only two Mord hearer- in the Presbyterian Bio mini strybegan with earliest days W. IRWIN. Editor and Proprietor. THE GAMEY BANQUET. Paris Green DRUG STORE. At her late home in Bentinck on‘ Monday morning, July 20th, Mrs. John ' Clark, Sr., passed peacefully away to. her final rest. Deceased was a native of Mull, Scotland. In the late forties , she, with her father’s family, emigrat- led to this country and settled in the township of Vaughan, where she mar- ried Mr. Clark. Shortly afterwards they moved to Bentinck and settled on the farm which they occupied together till her recent decease. Around them ‘ g grew up a happy family of three sons ' and six daughters, all of whom except one daughter still survive and were present with the aged father at the funeral to mourn the loss of a beloved llwife and mother. Mrs. Clark was a 'woman of singglarly strong mental .qualities and was possessed of deep ; spiritual convictions. She belonged to f a type of woman fast passing away-- iwith courage and hope to brave the fhardships of early pioneer life, with 3physicial endurance to rear a family and help her husband to hew out of f rigged forest a comfortable home for themselves and family. with faith in (iod strong enough to impress upon her family and upon the entire com- munity the great verities of the Chris- tian religion, a dutiful wife. a kind and loving mother, and a true friend. To know her was to love her. She was buried in Latona cemetery, and the large number of friemls and acquaint- ances from near and far which followed a the remains, testified to the. esteem in . which she was held. A. e. M‘stzm.

Mr. Duncan .McKenzie, of this town. is now the ‘ only surviving member of a large fam- ' ily of eight brothers and one sister. Last spring the people of Ayton be- gan the promotion of a Binder Twine Factory to be erected in their village. The village of Ayton ofiers many ad- vantages for the successful operation of such a factory. It is situated in the heart of one of the best agricul- { tural districts in Western Ontario and will in consequence always have a liberal home market for the product. ‘ The village is connected with the out . side world by railway which connects i with the Great Lake navigation at LOwen Sound. The Company have se- ' cured the beat water- -power on the South Saugeen and will operate their factory by this power, transformed a into electricity and transmitted to the factory by wire. of the settlement of this northern part of the province. There were THE memcmc joins in expressing its appreciation of the venerable minis- ter and of his grit in holding on to the work at such an advanced age. and hopes that he may yet be spared to show to the young men what a man of the full flve score can accomplish. diflculties may and toils unceasing, but the universal good feeling and broad Christian sympathy, and the hopefulness characteristic of the early days. lightened the burdens and filled the heart with gladness. He made Special reference to the good relations between himself and all the succession of the Presbyterian ministry in Dur- ham. and it was no great stretch of the imagination to see that his mind turned with special affection to the Reverend Mr. Park, and the days when side by side they labomd togeth- er, often with tears, sowing the pre- cious seed. He earnestly exhorted the church of to-day to hold fast the sim- plicity of the Gospel which had been the stay and support of their fathers. Besides these natural advantages the Company have secured a. free site. one of the finest in town, for their buildings. They have chosen for their directors five capable and progressive menâ€" men of ability, who have made a success in their own business and who will handle the at- fairs of the Company in a careful and economical manner. That there are good profits in the business under prOper management. no one will question. This will be particularly true of'the future as the Government. has decided ‘to grant a bounty on the finished article to ofi- set the export duty on Manilla from the Philippine Islands in favor of the United States.
