WHY WEAR YOUR OLD HAT when to be cut and hauled away, and on Tuesday afternoon Mr. 'l‘hos. Johnston (of Fenclon) while binding or unhind- ing a load of it, accidentally dropped the pole, which fell on top of Mr. Chas. Harling’s head, inflicting a gash which bled profusely for a considerable time.

A FALLâ€"Mr. Thomas Roberts is building a woodshcd at the rear of his house on Colborne street, and on Tues- day last while he and his brother in-law, Mr. John Swantou, were passing each other on a light scaffold which had been erected. the structure gave way, and they both fell to the ground, a distance of about twelve feet. Mr. Swauton escaped with slightly bruised ribs, but Mr. Roberta's left leg was so badly hurt below the knee that he has been con- fined to the house ever since, and to- day (Thursday) we are sorry to hear that his foot is so badly swollen that he is hardly able to put it to the ground.

Cur HIS Boonâ€"Mr. Andrew Tor- rauce's second son, Harry, hired a short time ago at Mr. John Flett’s in Somer- villc, and on Wednesday of last week a rather sharp axe with which he was splitting wood passed entirely through a pine stick, cut his left boot near the instep and inflicted :a wound about an inch and a half long and an inch deep in his foot. As he did not return home to the Falls until the afternoon of Thursday, the edges of the wound were so much swollen that stitches could not be put in, but Dr. Wilson dressed and bandaged it, and Harry was only laid up for three or four days. 315" My stock is well chosen and the best to be had in Feuclon Falls.

McIntosh, who was working at Four Mile Lake, felt some- thing prick the ball of the second finger of his left hand; but upon looking to see what had hurt him, he noticed nothing but what looked like minute fibres of wood. He then picked at the ‘ t-‘pot with a needle, which may possibly have been the cause of the swelling that followed, and became so had next day that be mine home to the Falls and put himself under the care of Dr. Graham. in spite of all that could be done the swelling and discoloration gradually crept up his arm until within a short distance of his shoulder, when the rem- edies began to take effect,9nd since \\'ednesd.ty be. has been able to be out, though he still carries his arm in a sling. During the first two or three davs he suffered a great deal of pain, and there is no doubt that for a time his life was in considerable danger.

CORRESPONDENCE. “ Where Are They At? ” To the Elitor of the Feuclon Falls Gazette. Sui,â€" The Patrons have issued what they call a handbook introducing “facts and figures in support of the Patron platform and principles.” In this pamphlet the greatt'r part of the abuses complained of by lteformets are strongly condemned by the l’atrons, but in some things they seem to go to extreme lengths, the most. absurd being the abolition of Government House at Ottawa and of the mounted police of the Northwest Territories, except in unorgan- ized districts. The Military College at Kingston is also to be abolished, and the expenditure on the militia force in the Dominion in time of peace shall be limited to $30,000; but the following “General. Remarks on Expenditure ” on page 13, if carried out to their legitimate issue, would not only cut off all possible means of spending public money wrongfully, but would necessitate the doing of all, or near- 1y all, public business by officials willing to work for no reward except the smiles of an approving conscience and the applause of the Patrons :â€" “It is impossible within the limits of a pamphlet to point out all the items of ex- penditure in which a saving might be effected or an abuse exists. The Patron stump speaker can readily discover many fer himself; those just given will supply him, however, with cogent texts. The case can be made all the stronger by dwelling on the rapid growth of the expenditure in recent years, as shown by comparing one year with anothcraud contrasting it with the slow growth of population». Let it be said again, no reform is so urgently needed in Canada as a reduction in the cost of governmentin all three spheres, federal, provincial and municipal. There is a swarm of departmental officials at Ottawa and a still greater swarm of outside federal officials, judges, customs and revenue offi- cers, postmasters, fishery officers, Indian agents, canal employees, railroad employ- ees and so on; there is another host of well paid clerks in the eight local ma- chines, and still another of county attor- neys, jail and asylum officials, division court clerks and bailiffs, sheriffs, registrars, license inspectors, school teachers, coro- ners, etc., and below or behind these the tremendous host of municipal officials; our 700 legislators are increased to several thousand by the county, city, town, village and township councils of which. Ontario alone contains 800; while high over all, amid their archaic state and trappings, sit the GOvernor-General and Lieutenant- Governors with their considerable retinuc, the whole constituting a hierarchy of tax: handlers such as no other five million people on earth have to support out of moderate resources. It is not “revolu- tionary ” for Patrons to declare that this immense edificc of ofl‘icialdom ought to be reduced to a footing somewhat in keeping with our means and requirements.” Heaven preserve Canada from falling, under the power of such “ root and branch ” men as these. We may well enquire where they got such almost divine inspiration. May we not safely conclude that we are drawing very near communism ? What next will have to be abolished ?
