THE CANDIDATE ' HEARD. Before calling on Col. Sam. thhes. Mr. Channon asked it anyone from the Opposition was present, but find- ing no one respond, the Colonel came forth and received a great ovation. which lasted several minutes. The Colonel made a fighting address, and told of the good feeling shown all through Victoria county. The citizens of Oakwood leaned over their seats to listen, and he held them for over an hour. Britishers live to-day, he began, under the principles of responsible government, and he first wanted to show what this meant. He felt that he was speaking to many young men who were casting their votes for the first time. The country, he said, was now face to face with a general elec- tion, and on Oct. 26th the people were going to determine who will govern them during the next five years. He felt sure that by the time he got through the independent voter would assist in turning out the present gov- ernment. He asked the Liberals pre- sent had the government given them free trade. Farmers of Mariposa, he said, were paying double the price for binder twine. The Grits said they would reduce the expenditure $2,000,- He reviewed the tenure in office of John A. Macdonald as Premier, and showed how he had carried out the promises ‘made by the Conservative party. He reviewed the work of the Whitney administration on the ques- tion of public schools, and showed the great improvement that had been made. The assessed valuation of Mariposa townshig was $3,500,000, the largest assessed township in Canada. He re- viewed the land deals in the West and showed how friends of the gov- ernment were reaping great rewards and the people’s money being stolen. _-_ in V ‘ He then went into the Huron elec- tion scandal, and showed how the farmers of that constituency had been robbed of their true representative. and bogus ballots had sent the wrong member to the House. There were over forty tidings, he said, where the ballots had been tampered with. He asked the freemen present would they stand for such a government who would allow these practices to con- tinue. ‘ -1 (V-.. bhu uu.

OFFERED VICTORIA COUNTY OOUSCIL TO EXHIBITORS OF BEEF The annual “Fat Stock Show" at Guelph is unique among fairs in the many educational features which it offers. In the judging ring the judges give reasons for their placings, and answer all questions from exhibitors and onlookers. Prominent specialists in all lines of agriculture are present to deliver addresses during the sev- eral days of the fair. The exhibit of beef cattle, dairy cattle, sheep, swine. poultry and seed grain is in itself a great inspiration and silent educator â€"save for the poultry. In order to induce more of our farm- ers to become exhibitors, the executive of the Fair this year appealed to a number of the county Councils to oler special prizes to amateur exhibitors of beef cattle. The Victoria County Council offers to amateur exhibitors of beef cattle, residents of the county of Victoria, the following prizes for the best beef animal, any age, any breed, grade or cross of any breed, age to be considered along with quality in awarding prizes: let, 8!); 2nd, 815: 3rd,_$lo.

The following judgment. issued yes- terday by Judge Herding in mumb- era, will be received with much in- terest by members of Municipd Conn- oils and other: interested in the en- forcement of the provisions of the Public Health Act. The judgment was in connection with a suit entered by the Corporation of the Township of Eldon, plnintifls, against William Nicholle, defendant, and reed as fol- lows : ville on the 23rd day of September last, Mr. McDiarmid for plaintiffs; Mr. F. H. Hopkins for defendant. The evidence shewed that the above- mcntioned James Jack was employed by Dr. Grant on some day in April. 1904. as constable and to look after the needs of the defendant while there was diphtheria in his family. This action on the part of Dr. Grant was at once reported to the Medical Health Oficer. who approved and adopted the action taken in the matter. The evidence of James Jack shewed that he was to all intents a guard or constable, and was in no sense at- tending to the needs of the defendant. Even if the Sanitary 'Inspector had performed services for the defendant this would not be such services as could be recovered under section 98.
