'niiffissv, FRIDAY. FEB. 19, 1897." \ MAJOR M’GILLIVRAY. To touch or even hint at the irregulari- ties of last June in regard to the ballot stufiing affair of North Ontario, is' enough to set Major J .A. McGillivray afiame. So tender is he on this point that any innocent remark dropped by an opponent is apt to be construed by him into an insinuaticn that he was a party to the affair. Last Saturday one of our sturdy resi- dents from the north was discussing election matters in general, when the major became very wrathy at a casual remark dropped. This caused the major to make a show of himself, to the amuse- ment of the occupants of the car, and his language on the occasion was not very refined. His opponennhowever, was just as powerful a man as the major, and he quietly and coolly told him if he dared to repeat the language he had used he would smash his mouth. The gallant major thought discretion the better part of valor. ” _______â€"â€"â€"â€" EDITORIAL NOTES. The American senate has ordered a war-ship to Indiaâ€"but grain and not powder will be its cargo. There are two kinds of good lndian nowâ€"the dead Indian, and the Indian on the reserve who votes right. Those Manitoba farmers talk plain free trade. They are not afraid of the bogey of direct taxation, and they have respect for Canadians as being able to hold their own with any people. I: was very considerate on Major Beattie’s part to lend Peel $10 to flee from London and take refuge in Michigan. Peel certainly did what he could to get Major Beattie counted in. Dr. Koch thinks he has discovered a toxin which will lessen the virulence of the rinderpest. The disease has been annihilating great herds at the Cape, and if his seru'n should prove to be a success as a prophylactic it will be of immense alue. The Nevada legislature has legalized pugilism and defeated female suffrage, and, impressed by the ease with which the prize fight act slipped through. capitalists are now engineering a bill to legalize alottery. Nevada seems to _be making a bid for areputation of being the worst state in the union. So that Bradley-Martin ball did not cost the ambitious couple $500,000, but about $300,000, and all told not over $150,000 was spent. It was enough. Some of us have had as much real fun at a threshing floor “frolic,” where the music was furnished by an amateur fiddler and the "favors" were distributed at the end of each set. And they were not boquets of orchids or silver snuff-boxes either. Mr. Gage, the next secretary of the U. S. treasury, at a banquet last Friday night, spoke at some length on the economic situation in the S'ates. He gave utterance to this significant remark : “There are real mistakes to be corrected. We have violated the natural laws which govern the realm of economics with the same force and power that they do in the physical realm " Those are strange words coming from one who has been selected by McKinley, the high priest of the protection idolatry, to fill a cabinet office. Does it mean that even he sees the light and is about to turn toward it? At the New York bicycle show is ex- hibited the biggest wheel in the world. It is fiften feet high, twenty-four feet long, weighs about one hundred and fifty pounds, and has tires eight inches in diameter. rfect In construction it is a pe reproducti in of its manufacturer's regular size 1897 wheels. The costliest bicycle in the show is one built for the occasion. It Is a tandem and represents an outlay of $10,000. Ono maker has a sign 72 feet 10 , which contains 800 electric lights. 11The railing of another booth con- sists of the front forks and stems of wheels.

The announcerhent was made a short , time ago, by some papers, thatihe bill for the branding of cheese and registra- tion of cheese factories and creameries, submitted last session to parliament, came into force Jan 1st, 1897. This is not so. As yet the bill has not received the sanction of parliament. In the course of this winter circulars have been sent out from the department of agriculture, pur- posely to ascertain, previous to presenting the bill a second time, what is the opinion of the parties interested as to the advisability of its being made law, but it is too early yet for owners of cheese factories and creameries to send in their applications for brands and registration numbers. â€".â€"â€"â€" The little island of Crete, south of Greece, 160 miles long by 20 miles broad, has a population of 200,000 Christians, 60,000 Mohammedans, 2,000 Jews and a few foreigners. It was conquered by the Dorians 1,000 B. C., by the Romans 67 B. C., by the Saracens 823 A. D., by Nicephorus Phocas 961 A. D. On the conquest of Constantinople by the crusad- ers, Crete was allotted to Boniface, Marquis of Montferrat, who sold it to the Venetians in 1:204 A. D. The Turks took the island in 1609. It was ceded to the Viceroy of Egypt in 1830 and restored to the Ports in 1841. The Christians re- belled against Turkish rule in 1858, and again in 1866, the European powers coin- pelliug submission to the Turkish authorities in 1869. If the powers keep out of the scrimmage this year,Greece will undoubtedly assist Crete to success in throwing off the Turkish yoke for good and all. A bill has been introduced in the local legislature which has for its purpose the lessening of the number of town councillors. The bill provides that in towns of over 4,000 in- habitants the council shall consist of 3. councillors to be elected by general vote, and two councillors for each ward. The council of towns of 4,000 and under is to consist of a mayor and six councillors to be elected by general vote, and the council of every incorporated village of a reeve and four councillors to be elected by general vote. and the council of every township is to consist of a reeve and four councillors, who shall be elected by general yote where the township is not divided into wards, and where the township is divided into wards, of a reeve who shall be elect- ed by general vote, and one councillor to be elected from each ward. ’ OPS TOWNSHIP COUNCIL.
