The Government’s naval bill is practically passed. and out of the whole bunch of Liberals at Ottawa only one was patriotic enough to come out flat-footed and vote against the party. We might as well dump a lot of firecrackers in the water as the mosquito flotilla the Government is going to build, The Dreadnaught proposal seems the only solution‘ and by the do- .nating to Britain the price of one or two of these modern ships of war, we would do more for Canada and the Empire, and a great deal cheaper. too, than by the present method. Toronto people, and some To-; ronto papers, are howling about; thx doggmuzzling order, and are' endezu oring to get the city coun-! cil to petition the Government to, hav 3 the order rescinded, so far as Taronto is concerned. While we! do not know just what the order? is, regarding Toronto, still we pre- sume. it is in effect the same as‘ all oi us are governed by, viz: to tie up. lock up. or muzzle up our: dogs There are three choices, and if the dog fanciers of the met-' ropelis don’t want their dogs muz- I zlnl. why don’t they resort to either of the others? Surely they don’t think the muzzling order is any more inhumane, for this is the point on which they base their argument than allowing dogs to run the'streets unguarded, espec- ially while this rabies scare is on.

DURHAM, MARCH 17.1910 DOG MUZZLING PROBLEM THE NAVAL BILL (3-) i0 Mr. We have one from up North who is said to be doing Well, but still owes us for the auctiom sale bills he got before leaving. We always regarded him as an honest man here and we hope he’ll remember us soon. Another fellow in Vancouver has been getting it since December 1896. and our requests for payment have so far failed to materialize. The other western provinces have some Chronicle readers who don’t seem to think it takes mon- ey to run a paper, and are mean enough, or dishonest enough. to get out of paying for it. It must not be inferred, however, that this is a general sizing up of peOple who go West. as many of them pay up as regularly as the years roll round. A couple of weeks ago we re- ferred to a couple of others who appear very much like dead beats, as they, too. dropped their paper without remembering to pay for it. He was taken to the hospital a couple of Weeks before his death for treaMent for cancer of the stomach. Though ailing for some time his condition was not thought serious. ,but he sank very. rapidly towards the last. ' He leaves a brother George,and sister, Mrs. Simpson, in Portage La Prairie. a sister, Mrs. D. McCrie, at Varney, a sister, Mrs. John W. McKechnie, at Rocky Saugeen, and a brother James in Egremont. Deceased ‘was a plain. honest mans whom we learned to respect very highly on a very £3110“! acquaintance. Our sympathies arel extended to the sorrowing relaâ€"i tives. Another went away without squaring up. and we hear that he’s dead. Not likely We’ll get it nOW. But they’re not all away. There are some in town who evidently never thought of paying up, and there are some not very far out of town. who frequently meet us OBITUARY JOHN R. TUCKER. We have just learned with re- gret of the death of Mr. John R. Tucker. 0! Portage La Prairie, on the 10th inst, at the age of 54 years. A subscriber in Nelson, B. C. has refused the Chronicle after taking it since December 1897 without paying for it. It’s hard for us to think the man is honest. Deceased. a son of the late Walter Tucker, was born in Dur-i ham. About thirty-five years; ago, he was married to Miss Annie Braithwaite. who, 'together with {our children are still living. The surviving members of the family are William, George, Walter, and Mary, (Mrs. Simpson).

' The second half was, perhaps‘ the more stubbornly contested of the two sessions, close checking being freely indulged in, while it seemed almost an impossibility to get the puck past centre ice. Fifteen minutes of play saw the visitors tally, and fourteen min- utes later saw, the Durhams roll in their last score, which was secured by Ralph, This ended the scor- ing, the full time tally being Dur- ham 5, Mt.

The first of the two final games fer the championship of the Nor- thern League, was played on 'Uhe rink here on Saturday Last between The ice was in poor condition, owing! to the soft weather, and though the game was a good one, there was little combination by either team both of whom relied on individual Work to tally, and the utter Mpossibility to pass the puck on the sticky surface, made the playing necessarily ,slow.
