It is quite -apparent that he has either too much to do in `his private business, or that the constant round of petty municipal duties has caused him to grow careless in the dis- charge of his public duties. - He. has not a wide grasp on the needs of Barrie. He fails to urge his council to the necessity for keeping Barrie astride of the tiiiies, and the consequence is that the a careless- . ness and incapacity of the head of" the council is like a clog on the wheels of pro- gress in this town. The whole council - seems to have been in a greater or lesser_ degree tainted with the apathy of their head of it. A change, therefore, is for these reasons required. . Who would be a dssireable man to till the civic. chair for 1885 l The question requires careful consideration before it is answered. Barrie needs a man of experience in the Mayor s chair for next and coining `years. She requires ainan who, in the getting of that experience, has not become rust- ed ; who, in. other words, is 'ent-erprising. Who" is a` believer in a `high future for this town. .

Nothing can be further from y the truth. The Act is designed to increase the value of the. raw material to everybody who handles it-the pro- ducer, the manufacturer and the consumer_ It will be evident, from the clauses quoted of the Act, that such -classifying. as is secured by inspection insures the loss by carelessness falling on the proper person.

We can only ascertain by com- , paring` the state of our nances this year with the indenite estimated condition of L them for next year. Already we have , seen that for 1884 the total revenue is 3 $23,996.37. Mr. Ross, as chairman of , the nance committee,*has estimated the , expenditure for this year to be the sum , of $24,305 95. By subtracting the rev- enue fr-nn that amount We nd that in 1884 there will be a decit of $309.58, which would have been $l29 less in `amount. if Mr Ross had been popular at the county council board. But, will that be all? We think it is hardly likely that the decit for 1884` will be only some $309 58, because the junior organ of Mr. Ross informed us on the 15th Oct. last that the actual payments for 1883 over- ran the estimates by $2,501.50 ! The in- dications this year are that the estimated expenditure will fall considerabiy short of the actual payments for 1884, and that the decit for one year will _be- not 8309 58 but a sum much in excess of it. We are now able to answer the question, of _ our nances be in .1885 '1" -There` will be a` A decit, accorling jito `Ross. , the chairman` of `nance; than 3309.53 5 Putting it at the lowest calcula- tion. accepting =;or.the sake a;-games; that the-:estiiuated and actual. expend:-_ ture for'-1884` _wil,l_,tally, if,.`Mr. Run - [)3 . correct in his. forecast _fu'r1885,1 the, 3913",. . 0.03103 3300`t3P-137 00 to their. successors in in some degree, What will the condition.

He said, wxth an the [weight which that `position -gxves him, The" Witness, which is a good Grit, furtherassures us that the last remark of Mr. Laurier "was loudly. applauded and all through the speaker seemed: to have gained the. sympathies of his audience. We trust that our esteemed contempor- ary, the Review, will justifyus in the use of the heading of this article. It is quite true of many members of the Grit` party, not alone of the rank and tile but of the leaders also, that loyalty to Britain forms no part of their political creed. And we, who know the stability and as- surance of iespect such loyalty gives our institutions, know also that loyalty to Canada woul.` not be allowed to stand in the wayei the same persons if thereby the Tories could be ousted from power. We might yet go further and `seek pol- itical f'reedom.i if we had not this now it was our own fault; It was because we had not had the spirit or `the wish to stand alone. If we had not commercial liberty it was the fault of the people of_ the metropolis, Montrealr The Mother Country had long ago generously said to us through her leading statesmen, that when we wanted independence we could have it-with her good will For the pre- sent we were prepared to assert commer- cial freedom and that would be an`educa- tion to prepare us for national independ- ence. We were now a colony, but it did not auitthe ideas of true patriots that we should. always betso. ` _ Since theabove appeared in our con- temporary Sir Richard Cartwright, who ma)de.._the_independence speegh in Toronto, has spoken, and _so has Hon. Wxlfred La.urier,.a.former member of the Hon.

The members of the Reform party that we are acquainted with--at least the body of the Ruformers in `this couuty-- are truly. loyal to the throne. and we loyal subjects of Her .I~I.iestsr. but 312:: shares 151291: made. 80 n much against the lteformers in the coun- : ties, butmore especially against the Re- formers-of Toronto, who are supposed, more than any others, to mould the_Aopin- ions for and direct the party. The tone of a portion of the Reform press has lately been such as" might give color to the charge made by the organ of Democracy. , They. have sneered at Royal favors and Imperial decorations, and their remarks might to construed, _by those who wished so to understand them, into sneers at y the source from which those favors come. There is also the well known speech of Sir Richard Cartwright at Toronto, where- in he referred to independence, and the statement of the Hon. G. `W. Ross, that those who favored annexation should be allowed freely to express their opinions, all tendinc` to add force to the News charge. It is therefore due to the mem- bers of the Reform party. and the country at large, that the leaders" of the party should explain this matter, and that it should not be allowed to pass without notice.

While we are glad to learn that the character of the work is new readers will remain in force longer than the term of a Minister. When Mr. Crooks went out, there were two readers semi-authorized, the Royal and Gage s, and many schools in the Province are now using one or other of these series. The Minister changes his vrnind-or rather declares aga.nst the policy of his predecessor in the same Cabinet-- and the people will shortly be put to the ex- pense of purchasing a new set of books _for their children. While we believe one series alone should be authorised , we do not feel at all content to allow the lesson which `these things teach to go unim- proved, and it` isin our opinion that the Cabinet of Mr. Mowat, `as a whole, is`re- spnnsible to the people for the unneces- sary. expense -o_f_ new school books so often - recently . inflicted upon them .

Those - excellent, it may be as well to remind i'Pnss1oesr Awrrms has delivered his message to the United States Congress; "It is an able document, and besides dealing comprehensively with purely do- V mestic topics, contains many references to the international relations of the Unit- ed States. The most important, however, is that recommending the enlargement of the scope nf the neutrality laws of the Unit- ed States in order that dymnnitards, pur- suing their nefarious designs in that country against the peace and safety of a friendly 1_1a.ti'un, may be punished. The President says truly, in this connection, theiprompt and thorough treatment of of this question is one which intimately concerns the national honor. For all that it is hardly hoped that Congress will touch such a ticklish subject. - On the 17th July we called theassertion of the Examiner on the 10th in question, but up to date it has not made its as- sertion good, as it and it could. When it makes its first assertion good, we will furnish the name it asks for on the 27th November.
