Another Protested Election. - Just at present there are are a good many trcmulous Tories in North Vics toria ; for by this time the newsâ€"pleas- ant or unpleasant, according to the pol- itics of the recipientâ€"that a protest. was entered On Tuesday against the election of Mr. Sam Hughes will have spread nl. over the riding. The Gazette was always of the opinion that nothing but boodlc would beat Mr. Barron, and felt very sure that money would have to be spent so freely that quite enourh in- stances of bribery to unseat Mr. H ughes would quickly come to light. Money was spent and promises were made by wholesale and Mr. Barron was detected; but so many proofs of the means by which he was defeated wore obtained, that it became the duty of the Reform- ers, in the interest of political morality. to enter a protest, and it was entered accordingly, with thc‘cush accompani- ment in the manner and within the time pcrscribcd by law. Knowing what we do, we have not the shadow of a doubt that Mr. Hughes, M. P. pro tent for North Victoria, will be d privcd of his ill-gotten seat, and there are grounds fora strong hope that he will be dis- qualified also. In a lditinn to the pro- test against Mr. Hughes, proceedings .will be taken against sundry and various pcrsOns who made false declaratioas for the purpose of putting upon the voters’ list names that had no right to be there. _ Many Conservatives appear to think that all is fair in polities as well as in love and war, and hundreds of voters \Vcre made by a process which the law declares to be perjury and punishes as such. To be defeated fairly is bad enough, but to be defeated by such tactics as were resorted to before and during the recent contest by our oppo- nents is outrageous, and not to be sub mitted to without an effort to obtain redress. Mr. Hughes is said to have declared he would win the election, no matter by what. means; but he and such of his supporters as acted in the same spirit will probably regret before long that they allowed their zeal to outrun their discretion.

Phoncgraph Concart. Mr. Wm. H times of Warkworth who has been in Fetielon Falls some fcw days with a phonograph. nave a concert on Monday probing, under the auspic‘s of the Home Circle, in Dickson's hall. hr the benefit of the village poor. D '. Wilson was to have been chairman, but as he was unavoidably absent, Mr. Bur- gess oflisiatcd in that capacity. The programme embraced about a dozen reproductions, vocal and instrumental. by the phonograph, rccitations by Miss Willie Greene and Miss Fannie Mc- DJil’lllld, who acquitted themselvm admirably, a brief speech by the Rev. Mr. McCamus. and a short reading by Rev. M r. McKinnon into the ear, or‘ mouth, or bell, or whatever it is called, of the phonograph, which two minutes afterwards reproduced it. word for word. The instrument is certainly a most wonderful one, standing. in the opinion of many, at the head ol .\lr. Elison’s list ofastouishing inventions. The sour, speech, or piece of instrumental music given to the phonograph to take one of is jotted down in faint. lines on the out. side of a small hollow cylinder made, apparently, of some kind ol wax, and can be produch after any lcxuth of time exactly as it was given. Whether the machine will ever be of any great practical use or not “we will not venture to predict. It is a recent invention and may be greatly improved ; but at present an audience must keep very (plot and listen intently to hear what it is saying, though persons sitting close to it, an-l holding the cup: at the end of the speak ing tubes to their cars, can catch every word or note quite as easily as when listening at a telephone. lts utterances have at times a somewhat metallic ring, though not enourh to disguise the tones reproduced, and the voice of Mrs. Dr. Wilson, who sang into it a few days ago, would have been at once rccognizfl by the audience even if Mr. Holmes had not told them whose it was. We may say of the phonograph as somebody (we forget who it was) choc said of a dancing dog : “ The wonder is, not that it does it so Well, but, that it dies it at all." The hall was well filled, but the price ofadtnissiou was so low, especially for children, that the receipts did not amount to over $21. The concert was brought to a close by the an licnc: rising and singing “ God Save the Queen " W Personals. Mr. “’m. Heaslip, Jr., who has been clerkiug since November in Paterson & Co’s. store in Lindsay, was home on a visit on \l'e'inesday and Thursday. Messrs. Davis Horton, Wm. Jones and le.

The Misses Smyth, of l’eterborough, are at the Falls on a visit to their sick uncle, Mr. George M inning, whose fa- ther, Mr. Thomas Manning, Was here from Thursday ol'last week until Tucs- day. Mr. Samuel Swanton, who had his right arm broken yesterday week at Golcrt, called at the Gazette office on \Vcdncslay mornin: on his way from Mr. John Brandon's, where he has been staying since the accident, to his office in Jordan's block. His arm still pains him a good deal, and he says that it causal hlzn far more sulf;ring than he endured on either of the two occasions on which he was laid up with a broken loz. Mrs Swanton and three of the children came to the Falls on Saturday, and returned to Toronto with Mr. S.vau~ ton this morning. â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"_.._ AttithED.-â€"â€"'l‘he chemicals for the pulp mill arritxd .as; We lucsday. and the men now having a holiday will go to work again on Monday morning.

It is not often 80 many of the residents of the village or its vicinity , leave at once; but there is a steady em- igration from this as well as otllsr parts of the Province, and the worst of it is that, of those ‘who go, Very fcw came back again, except for a visit. 0in two of the live above mentioned were going direct to the States; but, as all left in the hop: of battering thems ~lvcs. and the cfiiscts of the N. 1’. and the Men Kinley tariff are felt in Ma-iitohi as well as in Ontario. the other thrcc will probably drift across the line before my long.

S. S. ANNIVERSARY.â€"-Thc Ebenezer S. school anniversary was held last Fri- day evening and was in every way a marked success. Mr. Wm. Brokenshirc was zappointcd chairman, and, after a capital speech, presented a long and at- tractive programme, consisting of read- ings, recitations, dialogues and singing . by the scholars of the school and by the Methodist choir of Fenclon Falls, and addresses by Rev. Messrs. Fraser, Mc. Kinnon and McCamus. Refreshments were served after the entertainment, thus winding up a very enjoyable oven- ing.

Fortunately, however, it run into a snow- dril't against a [crane before it had gone twenty rods, and the damage to the cut- tcr, which Mr. Nevison expected to see snuslicd to pigces, can be repaired for four or live dollars, and the horse escap- c-l without a scratch.
