On Tuesday he was a pretty sick man but as we go to press he is reported to be some- what better. Complaints are made of some rural mail carriers. Have a little patience, and things may soon be all right. Any man is liable to make mistakes on entering a new job. If he’s fit for the business he’ll soon get into the way of it: if not, he should be removed and replaced by a competent man. We believe in giving every man a chance. On Monday, the 5th of May, the ratepayers of the town will be asked to vote on a by-lhw for the purchase of property and the establishment of a new industry. In the meantime, the question will be widely discussed. That we need industries will be admitted by everybody. and the proposed concern is one that will incur Very little cost to the town. It will start, it is true, as a compara- tively small concern, but the small concerns are not to be despised. We pointed out a number of weeks ago our approval of haVinQ' a number of small industries at comparatively small cost and fur- nishing a large amount of labor. The industries at high initial cost and ‘furnishing employment to only a bomparatively small num- ber of workmen are not the most profitable concerns for a small town. Let full information be gained of the proposed industry and we think a large majority of the ratepayers will be Willing to support it. C! EAR THE TITLE AND THEN; TN) MONTHS FOR ACT ! STEALING SKUNK SKINS It’s amusing to hear some of thci arguments put up by members of} the council in regard to the post office. It is well known there is a doubt about the title of the town hall property ,if used for "other purposes than that for which it was originally donated by the late H. J. Middaugh. Never- theless an option was given, and the option has been accepted, but the transfer of the property will not relieve the town of the res- ponsibility of clearing up the title in case trouble should arise. One member of the council says he would rather fight the Middaugh estate than fight the Government. To think that any Government is going to force the council to 'sell property that will afterwards icause trouble and expense seems thghiy absurd. DURHAI. on, munsoAv, April no, 1913 On Monday .fonenoon we receiV- ed a telegram from Goderich an- nouncing the death that morning of Rev. W. L. Newton. For some months, in fact since the death of his wife nearly two years ago, Mr. Newton has not DEATH OF REV. W. L. NEWTON been in .good health, but until a couple 0! months ago his trouble was thought to be of a nervous nature, and that a rest would cause it to wear off. About a year ago he resigned his pastorate of the Baptist church at Hartney, Manitoba, and went south to spend some time in Texas with his son, Karl. He next went to Goderich, where he stayed a few 'weeks with a brother and sister. About Christmas he visited Dur- ham friends, but was still far from well, and at times he suffered a great deal. He next returned to Goderich and shortly after consulted a specialist in Toronto, Who diag- nosed his trouble as cancer of the liver, and that he could not live more than two or three months. perhaps not more than a few weeks. These bits of distress- ing information were given to our readers, who, no doubt regretted Mr. Newton’s illness, and will not be surprised to hear that death has ended his career. We are not able to give aclear obituary of the life of the de- ceased. He was born in England ‘ on the 11th of F e b r nary, 1853. a n d w a S thvrvâ€" fore in his sixty- first year. For about eight or nine years. he was pastor of thv Baptist church in this town, and during those years he won the confidence and respect of every right thinking citizen. ‘Mrs. New- ton, too. was held in the highest vstuem. and her death about two yvars ago ‘ast u gloom ovvr [lu- community.

He conâ€" cluded now that leniency didn’t have the desired effect that more severe measures must be adopted to prevent the evil conduct of a number of young people of the town. Others, he believed, were also guilty of wrong doing, and deserved similar punishment, but theyu were not bein tried, and not “us could be one in this instance. , 1 We are sorry to think that any4 ‘ of our young people should be; ~ guilty of theft or other wrongu, 1 at we see no other course but‘t.‘3g to punish the wron doers.
