Only the other day an Ontario newspaper commented on the wild elections of some years ago and considereq those of toâ€"dasy tame and timid in comparison. But there was another side to the matter., An article lunder the heading of "Communicaâ€" ! tions" in the Seaforth Sun makes this Iclear. It appears that The Sun made a vitriolic attack on the Reform candiâ€" ’date, Mr. Bishop, touching his personal ! character in strong words. This resulted in The Sun receiving the following letâ€" ter for publication:â€"â€" Egr:ondville, Jan. 27th, 1883. To ths Editor of The Sunâ€"Dear Sir: I hope you will permit me publicly to been very little business done in the local Legislature during the past week. Short angq unimportant sessions have been the order thus far. It would be well for the government to bestir themâ€" selves and get through with what busiâ€" ness there is, and@ send the Legislators home, and not keep them dawdling away thsir time, day after day, doing nothing. Five o‘clock adjournments the thirg the session are not the thing. We hope there will be an ‘imâ€" provement in this respect for the balâ€" ance of the session, and that business will be pressed forward with due deâ€" snatch. ; TOI OWIr Hodgins cr uments, ho the origina Ma srow Blockade in 1881 old scraphbook there i: $5.45¢ hi Thomas H Friday Huron Arnother scandal Ontari me JulC Old 1€ $175 O1 91 he charge upon which is a clipâ€" 28th, 1881, published réads in 11 irliament, t _ Ontario @LC., COSI inded by in the Toronâ€" + r usual i1tems 7.

At the meeting of this organization on Thursday last in the Timmins United Church parlor, the accomplishments of the past ten years were briefly reviewed and a surâ€" vey made of conditions toâ€"day in both home and foreign fields. The way in which the W.M.S. is trying to meet these conditions was presented ang the women of the church were urged to have a share in the work. It was noted that the "Associated Helpers Departâ€" ment" exists for those women who, beâ€" cause of illness, home obligations or lack of interest, are not as yet active members. They may become "associatâ€" ed" with and a "helper‘" in the Auxilâ€" iary, An excellent way to become inâ€" terested in and familiar with the work is through the splendid little magaâ€" zine, "The Missionary Monthly," it was pointed out. The Missionary Monthly is not only of missionary interest but generally educational with its articles on travel, world peace, League of Naâ€" tions, Kingdom of «zod Movement, world fellowship, etc. The Dominion Board makes a grant so that this magaâ€" zine, which is so ably edited by a Scotsâ€" woman, may be had for 50 cents a year Review of Progress of the W.

The reply, however, goes not strike the same high note shown in the letter, Of course, it must be admitted that there are times when public newspapers fail in their duty when they do not at least give some hint of the personal character of some candidate for office. The editorial note in The Seaforth Sun of 1881 reads as follows:â€""Although we give space to Mr. Jackson‘s letter, we still firmly adhere to our former opinions. When a man accepts public position he beâ€" comes public property and his acts should be criticized as circumstances demand. In the discussion of Mr. Bishop‘s qualifications to fill the poâ€" sition of representative for this large and intelligent constituency, we only expressed the views of this community, related to us by Reformers and Conâ€" servatives alike. Mr. Jackson has a perâ€" fect right to his opinions, and in like manner we have to ours. The Sun in the future as in the past will deal with public questions and public men on their merits, unbiased and uninfluâ€" enced. We accord to Mr. Jackson our hearty support, deeming him worthy of the support of both political parties, and hope to see him returned by ai handsome majority." i Trouble About Timber Lands This old scrapbook aiso indicates that the problem of the forests of Ontario is not a new one. According to a clipâ€"| ping from The Seaforth Sun ("Official paper of the County") on Friday, Nov. 24th, 1882, an editorial article suggests‘ i that the timber heritage is being wasted and used in corrupt manner., That sounds ‘like charges lot later. Indeed, it would appear that there has been the‘same sort of talk under all governments of the province. In 1882 ths Oliver Mowat government was in power, but The Seaforth Sun suggests waste and fraud in ihne administration of crown timber, while the newspaper claims that things were just about perâ€" fect under the previous government of John Sandfield Macdonald. The Sea-' forth Sun in its editorial referred to the fact that the forests of the United States were fast disappearing and that Canada should avoid similar loss. The Sun says that Hon. John Sanfield Macâ€" donald laiq it down as a strict part ofl his policy that timber lands should be sold only in small parcels in advance of settlement, so that the timber could be removed and the land sold to actual settlers for the purposes of agriculture. The Sun alleges that Hon. Mr. Mowat set this wisdom at naught, ang made | the timber limits a political matter tol help the friends of, the gove_rnment..] Sales of timber lands are quoted to } prove the point. Probably the most inâ€" teresting part of the editorial is the reference to the fire rangers. Here is what The Seaforth Sun says:â€""We are told that the government would reâ€" quire many men to preserve the forests from the ravages of fire and tresâ€" passers, but if you turn to the public accounts we find year after year the sum of $35,000 charged as salaries to fire rangers and inspectors. What are these men supposed to go, except look after the public property? If this sum | was not enough, the money which he wastes in keeping up a useless staff of emigrating officers could be profitably employed in this way." | make known my views with regard to an editorial which appeared in your paper this week in reference to my opâ€" pomnent in the political field, Mr. Bishop.

"In order to compete for the $50 scholarship for the candidate taking the highest standing in Northern Onâ€" tario, it is necessary for the candidates to write the departmental examinations on nine Honour Matriculation subjects. For the $100 for the student obtaining the highest standing in his own school, candidates who obtaineg standing on the teachers‘ recommendations were not required to write the departmental examinations. The winners of the scholarships at Sudbury High School and Timmins High School wrote the departmental examinations, and, conâ€" sequently, were the only candidates ecligible for the special $50 scholarship. This explains why the North Bay canâ€" didate, although having higher standing than the Sudbury and Timmins candiâ€" dates, is not considered eligible for the special $50 scholarship. ‘"The following are the w1nn°rs â€"â€" "New Liskeardâ€"John H.
