The selection ot this gentlemen by the Reform I'onvention last week as their Candidate at the next Provincial elect. ions brings him into proumence and a few word" about him isin order. Mr Binnie was born in Scotland nearly 50 years ago. and at the age of 11 yrs came with his parents toCanada, and is thus practically a Canadian in education, growth and sentiment. He has always mnded in Glenelg township and is per. haps the widest know personality in the Riding outside» few of the men who have previously tested patmedopinios, His work in connection with the Farm- ers' Institute, and with s. Grey Ann-“lion! Society is responsible for ers' Institute, and wan a. u", Agricultural Society is responsible for this prominence, and it cam be safely aid that to him more than to any other one man can be ascribed what ever good has been accomplished by the former Society in its fut-reaching operations. As the etBeient Secretary of the Insti- tate he has been in touch with hundreds of farmers at its meetings all over the Riding. and not only in the routine of the ofttce has his iminstry and faithful. ness been shown hut his platform con-. trilmtium have been neither few nor small and his part in the discussions has been marked by a public spirited intelli- gence greatly to his credit. As a (lil'l't'iul' of the Agricultural Society his serrit ten' have been in constant tequest. and ttic, anwtlwtic tastes in tlower and fruit dcpurttuent" "specially have been Yt-l'y Valuable, Mr Binnie served Ill-i township {as councillor and reeve for many years. and his abilities in the leuser body were soon recoxmaed in the larger County Council of which he was to say theleast, a brilliant member. He held the chair- Inanship of some of its most important trotumittees, and was honored by his fellow councillors with the wardenahip of the County the highest municipal position ohtainuhlr. Mr Binnie is a man of great native intelligence. is Widely read on most subjects and especially well informed on matters relating to the farm. On the platform he is perfectly at home and is A good and clear speaker. Though scarcely claiming eloquence for him, he is» stood debater. and would make no mean showing in the wider tield of the Legislature to which we hope to see him elected. A clear-headed. intelligent man, an enthusiastic and progressive farmer, as politician trained thoroughly in muni- cipal work. he is just such a. one as farmers and business men every where should feel honored in supporting. By electing Mr Geo. Binnie to a seat in the Legislature. South Grey would have a worthy representative to send down in support of the best premier and the best government Ontario ever had. We congratulate I r Binnie on the prestige which placed him In the lead at the convention. 3nd trust his nuny merits and that of the government he supports. mar place him in the lead at. the polls. Mr Binnie is a member of the Presby- terian church, and is highly respected as»; neighbor and a citizen for-many estimable qualities. His rivals at the Convention, Menard McCannel and Morice are both worthy we“ and good farmers and the party, and liberal minded mm everywhere. could have supported either with great heartinen. Still it in admitted that. from a party stand point Mr BinnieU claims are stronger than either and this being the cm the warmest. and heart- iest support is to he looked for. most refined colors, and the designs are the sort that will please as long as the papers last. These papers are made to sell for a low price and are In to give satisfaction. You will find these papers beautiful or any season of the year.
