O. "W. BuUadgB, Fropcietor. MAEKDALE, SEPT. 22. 1887 THE SOOTT ACT. The Scott Act i3 likely to be voted on in Grey County in the near fatare, and while oar personal practice has always been total abstinence from in toxicants, and oar sympathies, with «ociai and moral reformers, yet it becomes our daty to judge wisely and not allow onr better judgement to be overruled by sentiment or feeling. There are many tern perance people who have an idea that their work is complete when a by-law is passed bringing the Act into force, while the work has only just then commenced. Several counties have had a trial of the Act, and learned by bitter experi- ence that the enemies of prohibition are numerous, unscrupulous, yea urillmg too stoop to an unlimited degree- of rascaUty and crmie in order to de- feat the purposes of the Act, while the majority of temperance people are not willing to make any sacrifice to aid in its enforcement, and those who are, 8u£fer severe damage and loss of property for doing their duty. Grey is now almost surrounded by Scott Act coanties who are preparing to yote on the repeal of the Act, and when we have waited to long, We would favor leaving the matter m abeyance until the result of this repeal vote is known. Should those counties who have had -a trial of the Scott Act giye a majority against its continuation, there would be little use in submitting it in Grey, while on the other hand if the Act is ^ustaiued, then will be the time for a vote. aiul mtetey, • podt «id eoM, tlMikill and eapaoty for im- proTmiMt • lif ^i?h #|pnv iilvdaiit •videoM every 7Ml3r,Wt ln(»e proad oftbe Bobtiety, t^e good order, the perfect peace and propriety, which bear testimony to to the high moral eultnre of the people of Gaaada/ ' 'j:^-y:i. ir OUR GREAT EXHIBITION. Globe, Sepxembeb 17th. We are not surprised to learn that some prominent Englishmen wlio visited Toronto Fair this week were loud in their expressions of surprise and admiration, and declared that it was the best annual fair held in any part of the world. This declaration was by no means extra vajsjant. It need not be said that a greater show of machinery and a larger, though not a more varied show of agriculloral implements coald be got up in Great Bntam that a greater number of high-bred animals and a much larger and more varied show of mannfaotarea coald be made there, and as fine a dis- play of some agricultural products -But, as a matter of fact, no such ex- liibitionB of choice cattle, fine hOTses, machmery. agricultural implements and manTifactur«s are made any- where an the country, and no exhibi- tion regularly made in anyof thecitie^ of the United States is quite equal in all respects to ours. Nor are Ameri- can Exhibitions attended by such multitudes year after year. .The great success of the Toronto Annual NOTE AND COMMENT. â€" Thnxsday, November 17th, haslbeen selected as Thanksgiving day for the Dominiim. -i-Mr. Bochon, Liberal, was elected for Ottawa Ckanty last week by fourteen hundred majority. â€" ^Mr. T^^. Eough of Owen Sound took a number of prizes at the Toronto In* di^tzial for his thoroi^hbred Galloways. â€" The Brantford Bow park Herd has been awarded the prize of 9500 for the beef herd at Minnesota State Fair held at St. Paul, Min., ISst week. â€" Bills itiBued by the defunct)Bank of London will be redeemed at par on and after the 1st October. â€" The Ilhnois ijupreme Court has confirmed the judgment of the Court below in the case of the Chicago Anarchists, who must therefore hang on November 11th. â€" The Intercolonial railway author- ities have set a good example to the other Canadian lines. They have made all return tickets rated in future for thirty days instead of from three to ten days as formerly. â€"The Toronto Exhibition which closed last week, was the most succss- ful ever yet held in the city. The total gate receipts were $52,061,45 an increase of $11,154,01 over last year, while it is estimated that the total receipts from all sources will fool up to $72,000. â€" It is stated that all the lots on which the Dominion Government bases its application for an injunction against the Bed Biver Valley railway, are owned and actually Occupied by squatters. At ameetingof prominent cittizens in Winnipeg on Saturday, it was decided to^lorm an Anti-Disallow- anoe Association. â€"A wealUiy English lady exported at her own expense a family of deaf mutes to Hamilton and left them to shift for themselves. The poor people could not find work and became in- mates of the House of Befuage. Alter a brief sojourn there th^ were for- warded to Montreal, where their ex- periences a^e not less painful than they were in Hamilton. The philan- thropists m England entertain re- markably orude ideas with respect to the class of workers' required in Canada. We want farmers with capital.
