support. hice ment on this point has been entered into between Messrs. Davies and WalSh, which reminds meof the case of a Chinese family, all of whom professed Christianity but one, who, by the consent.of the others, still continued a devotee of Buddha. They gave as their reason for the arrangement that they had bad and that they could not maintain their own without some person ‘‘to do the swearing for the family.” We assume that this is the rol: assigned to Mr. Davies on the Grit team. When a man plays the hypocrite deliber- ately and for a purpose, he sinks far lower than even the openly profane. Unscrupu- lous as Mr. Davies is, Mr. Welsh, in pro- fessing to be what he is not for the purpuse of catching votes, has proved himself to be the unprincipled of the two. Mr. William Welsh an Independent, indeed ! ! The tree is known by its fruits; and was there ever known inthis Island a more active and “‘thick and thin” Grit than William Welsh’ So pronounced has he been, that he drags politics into everything in which he has a hand. [s there a local election /—-away he hies to the remote set- tlements of the County, retails all kinds of yarns, dispenses whiskey (out of pure good- ness of heart), and tells the people that they will ‘*cut their own throats” by voting for a Liberal-Conservative. No greater insult could be offered to the intel- ligence of Queen's County than that which is given in the aitempt of a ward politician, habituated by long practice in the devious ways of partizanship, to pass himself as an ia Independent.”

That the Grits are resorting to this ** in- dependent dodge ” be taken as evi-

not feel themselves compelled te confess weakness after this fashion. STRAIGHTFORWARD.

The Meeting in Scotts Hall,

Tue electors of Ward Four met in Scott’s Hall last evening, to nominate a candidate to contest the Ward at the forthcoming civie election. The meeting was organized by appointing Michael Egan Chairman. Councillor McRae was the first to address the meeting. His remarks were condemna- tory of the present majority in the City Council. Councillor Haszard gave a satisfactory account of his stewardship. He informed the meeting that he did not intend to offer as a candidate in the forthcoming election. He was sorry that he could not see eye to eye with his colleague, Councillor’ McRae.

Geo. Foster, Kaq., said that he would back down altogether if the Council were not sincere on the water question.

Ex-Couneillor Ladner did not believe in the little Milk Act. He could analyze his own milk. He appeared to think it was no

better than his (Mr. L’s.) patent. The meeting came to a close rather abruptly. Nothing important was done,

not even a volte of thanks being tendered the Chairman for his able and impartial conduct in the chair.—Com.

The skull was frac. tured, and Mr. Curtis did not recover con- sctousness for some time. On Monday he s-emed to be improving, but inflammation of ta: brain set in, and early on Tuesday evening the unfortunate inan breathed his last. :
