Tranaiont advertisement cbargel at tbe rate 8 centa per lino for flrat insertion and 3 cents each subaequunt innertioo. Despatches from the East are ex- ciedingly conflicting these dajrs. Those of Tuesday announced that the powers are not liarinonionn and Turkey is likely to reap tlie advant- age. Great Britain would lilic to adopt coersive measures, but Russia and Garmany say the time is not yet cum.; for that. The result is that urgoUatious are tempotarily broken oil and Turkey still camps in Tlicssaly. E^ A correspondent writing to th* Globe asks if there is uot in this country " a pent np universal desire for a great non-party expression " on the occasion of the premier's return 'horn England. There is nothing of that nature pent np in this district. The people of England lionized Sir Wilfrid because be was a French premier. Thw peopls of Ontario do not feel justified in going into ocstacics over Lim simply because England did. It would add nothing to liis honors to let our feelings loose lu a big non-partisan dominion jubilation over the new knight in the raanner suggested, and we propose that lie be allowed to return quietly home without having his baugagc ecat'ched. His potato patch rcqiiiies attention. There are a few bugs to be looked aftei , and his time is too valuable just now to bo frittered away. * Wo are now informed that Can- ada possesses the richest gold fields that the world has ever aeeu. These arc situated in the Yukon district of Briiiali Columbia, in the fur north. Slid were only discovered in August of ittiit year. It is a placer mining district, and the stories told of its riches appear almost fabulous. Iiu meuse numbers will flock into the new district this summer, Some who went up last fall and have now returned bi ought with them thou sands of dollars taken out in a few months work. The government ap- . pears to be alert to the immenso ad- 'i} vantages that this new field opens / np to Canada. They should place ) heavy financial restrictions upou out- ' sidcrs and preserve the riches for our own people, li is our mines that we must look to for our wealth, and oar placer mines especially should be preseived for home developmcut. The Kincardine Hevic tfr says : " Poutronstcr-Gcneral Mulock has at last met his match. He wrote to a postmaster named Lefehvro in I'ona- venture county telling him that he was discharged from his office bc- oanse of his offensive partisanship during the last Dominion election campaign. The postmaster paid no Wed to the letter â€" not through any desire to be diaoourteuus to Mr. Mulock. but aioiply and solely because he was dead. The (act that lie died Uiiee months before the e\aotion took P'^»«» makes his conduct during t le *^mpalg^ »ll tl,e more reprehensible. Postmaatera have no right â€" they have absolutely no right we say â€" to take an active part in politics even when they are Uving. It is infinitely worse to keep up their offensive partizanEliip after they are dead We are not informed just what part Mr. Lefebvre took in the last election, but we snrmif.e that he marHlialled the graveyard vote for the Con- servative party. Mr. Mulock did perfectly right in dismissing the late Mr. Lafebvre from bis office. A man whose post-mortem partizanship is offensive ought uot to hold office after be is dead." Notes on the New License Act Sect. 1â€" III citieu.town and incorporat- ed TJlUgea respectivbly : (11) For the linit 250 of the population, oiin tavoni license, (b) For each full 250 abovn tlie first 250, one license, but not more timii three for the lirst 1000 of the populHtion.

In cities and towns, the time limited is from 11 o'clock p. m. to G a. m. This does not affect the regula- tion for early ch>Hing on Saturday and for prohibition un Sundays.

In conviction for an offence under this act, the niagistnite who convicts, or the judge, if an ap)ieal is had, will report to the Board of License Commissioners, and throe several convictions within a period of two years, if information wore made in different days and the certificate aforesaid given, the license is to bu cancelled and the holder disqualified for U years.
