We find, faowefer, on xeriewing the 'newspaper world, that those, taking «ian independent stand are growing more powerfal Beth in number and inflnenee year by year, and the qnes- tien wonld natorally arise, why is this •elass of newspi^ers making â- nch pro- ^ess? Thr answer eomss-mth force, 4md even our extreme politicians ad' ~mit tiiat the leading political jpornals -eannot be rslied «. Their leading «rticle8 and reports of a political or national charaeter are so biased that iio nttsrly niisafe to rily, on. uch, «nd thas it runs, eren into the country party papers; it is therefom.. not at -all sarprising that the intelligent, .public should look lor a reliable sonree ^om. which to procure information re- garding the great questions of the day. -The respect and confidence once plac- ed in the leading political papers, has (been so abused that a gradual-^but none tiie less .certain â€" change has been going on, and now we find those who desire "the truth, the whole truth •0," invariably look for an independ- ent paper in order to procure such information. It is therefore not tu be wondered that this class of news- "papers are gaining such power and takisg the front as leaders of public opinion. As to local papers dabbling in poll, tics, we are still strongly of the ppin- lOD that their sphere is not in that 'direction, and that the less polities is. to be seen in a ceuntry papert- the better; even where there are two papers published in a place,, and each takes a side. A local paper is a local paper; and no city publication can take its place, neither can the country 7)aper take the place of the city, there- fore the great aim should be to make each issue so interesting with the do- ings of the locality that politics will be completely crowded out. LAMP LIGHT. There has beena number of inven- tions and patents brought before the public during the past yaar, but they all appear to sink into insignificenee when compared with the "Harvey Safety Lamp." Mr. Harvey in a former resident of Meaford. (jrey Co., and .has now the lamp mannfactuiing business almost to himself, and is do- ing an immense trade through Canada. His show room is No. 9, Adelaide Si. West, Toronto. We bad the pleasure of visiting hta premises last week and found Isrga qaantities of this fioe lamp in various stages of completioo. This lamp took first prize and silver medd At Toronto's Industrial Exhibition, 1885. Some of the advantages over the old lamps are, they never blacken lite lamp glass, neithw does the ohimney break with heat. They giye more than three tunes the li^ht of an ordinary lamp. They are uon-explo- eive. They are just the thing for Churches, Halls,and Public Buildings, and for a domes^- kght they are by far the best lamp in the market.

We have been, wondering for some time what to say that would be uter- esting to the general public, as news seem to be scarce at present but we must say that we regret to learn that the Alhson Hotel here is changing hands. Mr. Joseph Allison, who for some years past, has been the occu- pant, and has managed it exceedingly well, and we do not boast when we say that it has been one of the best kept houses in the County of Grey. Mr. A. leayes shortly, and Edward Liiiley of Smghampton takes his place and no doubt will be able to supply the general public with abundance of Scott Act and other reqmsites in his line. At a recant: meeting of the Osprey Agricultural Society, ,a new President was elected in the person of Mr. An- son Lss of ^eversham, thus leaving the former Vresident, W. Guy, at home. We don't see why the change was made, .as Mr. Guy has generally acted as President, and filled his po- sition very well, and hae always shown his anthoritysas well as he possibly could It is altdgether too bad to. put "Billy" out of hoffice. It is reported that some means are about to be taken to unseat the Beeve of Osprey (A. McGirr), as it is rumor- ed that he is not qualified for the po- sition. If such ha done, a new elec- tion will have to take place, thus caus- ing considerable trouble. The Gospel Army are now holding meetings at the centre line cnurch. near Wareham, where, no doubt, they will win many souls to Christ. Messrs. Little Bleakley seem to be doing a lively trade in the cutter hne this season, having already turned oat quite a number. They make the anvils ring, you bet. Business also seemato be booming at the Big Boot, as usual. The pro- prietor, Mr. H,, furnishes good mater- ial, and has in his employ the best workmen that can be procured in the county, therefore, he says he can guar- antee satisfaction Bjfe. Robert Gordon is doipg a big trade in the shipping line at present. He has been sending loads of beef and pork to thj9 city about twice a week for some time.
