Jobhn Sandfield McDonald and Victor Sicowe were e«lled in by the Goverâ€" wor to form a ministry and they deâ€" cided on a general clection which they came out of with a majority not workable. The contest in Grey was between Geo. Jackson, the sitting member, and Geo. Snider, late Sherâ€" iff, of Owen Sound. _ Jackson was elected by the narrow majority of 28, having only 4 majority in Normanby. An instance of the strenuosity of these days is seen as Mr McPhee recalls that lor two daysand nights he was out of bed and in the thick of the cnmmign. In 1864 McMurrich‘s and Patton‘s time expired and another election was called for the Saugeen Division. McMurrich decided mot to contes‘, then the ** Grits " took up Geo. Sniâ€" der again as their candidate. The election took piace in Oct., 1864 : Snider was opposed by David L. McePherson, atterwards honored by his sovereign with _ knigbthood, ** Mac " got in by a small majority and this was the last election for the oldlsl;«msluive Assembly institated in 1. Cartierâ€"McDonald got hold of the reins again but were dcfeated in 1865 owing to some lorin they gave the eity otf Montreal, a result which showed the growing power of Canaâ€" da West in national Councils. Then was formed the famous ccalition government, a remedy to get over the difficulty of a deadlock. Monâ€" seigner Tache was brought in, he belog acceptable to both parties : George Brown was also in the group and remained in till 1866. McDougâ€" all and _ Fergusonâ€"Blair, stayed with tne flesh pots ot Egypt and reâ€" mained there till Confederation, the ever memorable 1st of July, 1867. POLITICAL HISTORY OF SOUTH GREY as Cash and the Highest Prices paid. Don‘t forget that place of the Legislative Assembly for the two mincu. came the change to the inion Parliament " and Provincial ** Legislatares, ‘"‘ the former baving control of Defence, Commerce, Binking, Post Office, Railways and Canals, and othe: specified subjects, while the Legisiaâ€" tures dealt with Education, Drainage and everything arising manicipally . Locally too a change came for Grey was split in two and we now bid good bye to the northern part of the county and besame known as " South *‘ Grey. The new system called for a double election in 1867, Provineial and Doâ€" minion, The provincial candidates were A. W. Lauder, (a brother of the u;eunt Registrar Thos. Lauder) and . K. Fiesbher. Lander was the grit eandidate and was victorious. The Dominion contest was one of the hardest fougy ht batcles in the history of the county. The redoubtable Geo. Jackson was opposed by Rob:. Dal glish, a prominent Darham merchant. Jackson won by a majority of 9, though a report at the time alleged that four or five of the nine were in Australia and more were in their graves. Mr Dalglish bhad made a good fight and never again entered the lists. The reigning coalition with a balâ€" ance of the Grits remained in power and fortified themseives by taking into their connsels D‘Arcy McGee, who in the spring of the following year was treacherously assassinated on the streets of Oitawa. Things ran on till March 1871 when znotber general election was held for the Legislature and Lauder appears now as a Conservative fullâ€" fledged a jingle of the time giving the alleged cause of the turnoyer : "Dear Sandfield made me a trustce Therefore he can depend on me" He was opposed by Chas. McFayâ€" den of Owen Sound, in the Retorm inâ€" terests, but Lauder waselected by 500 majoritg. His election was proâ€" tested »ad he was unseated by Chanâ€" cellor Oliver Mowat, in Owen Souud, but not disqualified. _ Parliament was called to meet in Toronto, a speaker was to be elected, and Lauder, theagh unseated, went down to vote for the speaker. . Owing to this and otker irregalarities, Ed ward Blake at this time gave utterance to the tamous reimark ‘‘Do you want to call in the police?" _ Bat McDonald (Sandfield) was now a Conservative and ruled that the House and the proceedings were legal and Blake retorted ‘"the feud ot the Clan Mcâ€" Donald was now made up,"‘ referring to the fact that Dominion and Proâ€" vincial premiers boeth McDonalds, were now both Conservative, a situâ€" ation by the way that bas neyer occurred since. The vacancy in South Grey had to be filled by a byâ€"election which was held in the last days of 1871 and this time Lauder was opposed by Nathaniel Dickey, a fou:dryman in Toronto. Lauder was again returned and was member till 1875, at which time Grey was made into three ridings, South Grey becoming as it is now. Lauder retired to E. Grey and his death took place not many years after. However Sandfield‘s tollowing was too weak wurry&nhofwmn&. and soon after the or of the opâ€" position, a brilliant young man, Edâ€" ward Blake, was called in and carried on the goverament till the fall of 1472. This was the time of dual representation, Blake and others were members of both Dominion and Proâ€" vincial houses, but this system was abolished by a Dominion statute, and Blake, chousing to sit for the Dominion, a new leader was called in late in 1872 _ This successor to Blake was Oliver Mowat, who stepâ€" &ed off the Bench to entar politics. e had not a safe major.ty, but held on, beginning his long career of 24 years in the premiership of this proâ€" vince, joining Sir Wiltrid Laurier in 1896, and later was elevated to the Lient.â€"Govern rship of this province Continued in future issues Referring to the success of Local Option, Mr Gibson, President of the Ontario Branch of the Dominion Alliance, speaking at Centre Grey Alliance Convention in Markdale last week, said that ‘‘one year ago seven municipalities tried a repeal vote, aud the repeal carried in only one. In these mnnicigaliv.ies the byâ€"law had been carried by a majority of 337 and was sustained by a combined majority of 991. Last January in 27 municipalities where the byâ€"law hbad been originally carried by a majority ot 3064 it was sustained by a majority of 4866. _ 700 parishes in Quebec are dry. 400 manicipalities in Ontario are under Local QIPLion. 40 licenses will be cut off in Toronto next month. I of the American Republic is under some form of Prohibitory Legislation The grandest National Policy is not the policy that protects the elothes around the boy, but the one that proâ€" tects the boy inside the clothes.‘"‘ Those who remember the uprising in Britain in the Gladstone days over the massacres in Bulgaria, not worse than has taken place during the last tew weeks in Armenia, must wonder at the eloquent but sorrowfal silence that now prevails in the old land. Then there was urging of the Eurâ€" opean Concert to act for humanity, Britain félt like doing it herselt. Great meetings strong resolations, gave vent to popular abhorrence but to quote tha Montreal Star : * Toâ€"day all is silence. We hear nothing but the steady beat of the hammers on the plates of the Dreadâ€" noughts. The British people for the first vime in more than a century feel that they ** have troubles enough ot their own, " They are as sorry for the Armenians as they ever were; but with a lance poissd to be vhrust into their own breast, they cannot give a thought to national kuaight errantry. ‘The rise of the German menace has thus, in a momentchilled the most philenthropic heart in Christâ€" end m. _ Britain was aiways the leader in succouring the oppressed and the tortured in other iands. We have been accustomed to crediting that spirit to our superior virtue. We uow see that it was due largely to our superior opportunity, _ We were not menaced at home, as were all other gseat powers. The world will loge greatly by this chauge. A communuity loses in the same Way When a pullantbhropic man of wealoh is suddeniy reduced to povâ€" erty. Tyranny will be bolder and robbery more shameless than it has been, and all becaase the gray old watchâ€"dog of the northern seas is now chained to his own gate post. Everywhere throughout the world where despots gloat over the prosâ€" pect of fattening on their victimsâ€" where armed wrong hopes to plandâ€" er defenceless rightâ€"the news that the Lion can no louger roair will be good news. The slave traders in slave areas in West Africa will be delighted to hear it. ‘The slave tradâ€" ers in Svouaan will wish that it could have come svoner. ‘The gross aâ€" mount of bhuman suffering maust inâ€" crease. Alil this and nobody to blame. Britain‘s firet duty is to look atter herself. Germany nu doubt belieyes thas making her fleet stronger will hurt nobody. Aod so the German menace becomes a world catastrophe, putting back the hands on the dial of human brotherbood, Meanwhile the 000 massacred, which grew to 10,000 is now reported to be 25,000 and the end may not be yet. All have heard the cries ‘‘the Dutch have captured Holland," "the French have taken Paris." To these must now be added ‘"The Turks have taken Constantinople."‘ Therising of the * Young Turks,‘ which seems to be an ably led constitutional movement, with the leader or leaders in the backâ€" ground, resulted last week in its armies entering the capital and virtuâ€" ally making a prisoner of the Sultan, who is blamed for putting obstacles in the way of constitutional governâ€" ment. The few thousand loyal troops who stood by him fought the invaders but were overpowered, as many as 1000 it is said being killed in the brush. On some of the Sultan‘s soldiers captured, sums of money have been found so large as to point clearly to bribery by the Sultan, and this disâ€" covery has so embittered the victors that proposals are made to fine him $200,000,000 while others want his body cut up and distributed throughâ€" out the empire. The gentle Turk ! ! Meanwhile the eyes of Europe are turned to the Bosphorus, _A Conâ€" stitutional Turkey without Abdul Hamid, might restrain the massaâ€" cres which spring from the bloody dictum of the grophct * The sword is the key of hbeaven and hell." It might do more: a strong Turkey would keep Austria and Bulgaria in check and possibly check even Gerâ€" man ambitions, e ; s _â€" However a strong Turkey that would not heed the cry of Armenia would be a curse to the world. All ;;fil;o;e the new power will show humanitarian advance over the old, Stability of Local Option. A Sorrowiul Silence.
