We-ler on the charge of corrupt practices, does not by any means, re- move the stigma attaching to the Con- servative party in mnnection with the Clemens-Lackner election. On the other hand the evidence of Mr. Eden exposes to view, a condition of affairs, which, had it been known would have led to the unseatitrg of Dr. Lackner in short order. Mr. Eden now claims that he paid Wessler the C2 for regist. ration work, though he never before accounted for the paymentin that way We have for two years heard through the press and from the platform, that it was for charity. The registration theory is, therefore, a revelation to most people. ltisalittle hard that the reputation of our worthy Mayor as a eharitably inclined person, which had gone abroad, should thus be over- thrown, bat as he subsequently ex- plained, he has been the creature of political exigency. He did not come forward at the protest trial and give the true reason for the payment of the money because as he put it, the party was "paying all along the line” for registration and thus had been guilty of a corrupt practice which would have hurled Dr. Lsckner from his seat. 80 Mr. Eden held his peace, generously tsaeritieing himself while the poor doctor who could not escape preferred to be nnsented on the lesser sham of corruption by an agent rather than have the gross corruption of the party exposed. No injustice was done in un- seating Dr. Lackner since the paying of the 82 was a corrupt practice in any“ event. “Paying all along the line" is not less expressive than it is suggestive. It is a phrase pregnant with great election possibilities. The liberals always knew that the defeat of Dr. Clemens was due to his opponents “paying all along the line." Briefs-Ura. l).

The largest and moat enthusiastic meeting held by the Berlin Board of Trad» in; many months, walnut. trid ml Tuesday evening, notwithstanding that it was an open night for the merchants. The Council chamber was iilled with the business men of the town, all eager when and see Mr. D. w. McNair, the President of the Port Dover, liraml'ord, Berlin N Goderfehl, R't Co. Besides the large turnout of Benin busineu men Waterloo was repruenwd by Mayor Dlebel, Mr. J. Bone, Pro-idem of the Board of Trade and Mr. Simon Snyder. Mr. J. Jr lleluer of Welleeley was also pree- ant. After the minutes of the previous 5 meeting had been reed, President Wil- l lisms opened the meeting in an able I and comprehensive speech, in which he thoroughly reviewed the railway aittt- union to date. He welcomed all pres- ent and said that better railway cou- ncction had been a live question in Berlin for 15 years. Our future de.. pends on that. Our position is unique for nowhere else in America could there be found 14,000 people with only one railroad which takes iron 8.30 to 11 o‘clock to go 62 1-2 miles, while tether roads go 120 miles in the some time. We cannot get a morning paper until noon. Boston which is 200 miles from New York gets New York papers at 8 n. m. Having failed in our Btrorttg tor fifteen years, we should now en- dorm a business proposition when it is laid before us. Mr. Patterson never made as a promise he did not break and we have had nothing but premises. The Cataract Power Company is ask- ing seven years more to commence their road so we can expect no rsilload from that direction for from 5 to 7 years. Mr. Williams here nrad a number of letters and telegrams from Mr. Patter- son. On July 6th, 1899, he wrote: "We expected to hove commenced sooner, but delay in the amalgamation of our company has delayed tttg." On July 13th he wrote: “I will he in Ber, iiu in one week.” That week has - come. On July 15th it was: "When I come up I can tell you exact- . Ir what I can do." On Feb. 21st lest ho said: “i wrote to Mr. Fennell that we will grade bat not build. We msy betore the end of next your If rolls are cheaper."

As common carriers they are compelled to do so. They will not turn down two towns like ours It the business comes to them. The Port Dover Co. say they will for- feit $10,000 if they do not give us proper rates. Let us tiejourselves to something tangible. 821,000 means 360 tax on 31,000 assessment so that the poor man with 6500 assessment only:peys 18e tax annually and this decreases each year. Berlin uses 8,787 tons of hard, and 8,564 tons of soft coal a year, or a total of17,351 was. If we save only Eie a ton it foota up to $4,335 a year and that every year. For thiati,335 a year you are asked to pay $1,200 a year. This road oifers a concession of 100 a ton on hard coal from Port Dover bat this difference will be more than overcome by the shorter distance to the soft coal tielda. The manufacturers will, I be- lieve, gladly forego their exemptions on the railway bonus. If we hestir ourselves now this company will get the Government grant bf $3,200 a mile north of here and we should act at once. Mr. D. W. McMuir. President of the Port Dover Co., was called upon. Mr. McNair does not posses a public speaker being evidently a man of action. He said: We have a large part of the nec- essary moneyier this road now. A New York gentleman is now in Lon- don mehing financial arranaements. Should’he not secure all of it we have enough in sight to build from Port Dover and that for the portion to God- erlch can be secured later. I shall make no false promises. The Tennis Construction Co., of Philadelphia, are "tearly through now with a road from Bttfrttlo to Depew and they can come here and grade " once. The Wet. inghouse electric people will send a men here next week to go over the route. We shall use " much water power as possible to generate electric- ity. We have $1 /200,000 now in sight to build the road bat we need working capital.
