MARKHAM VILLAGE-Reeve, Jas. Speight. Councillors, G R Vanzant, J Jerman. H Wilson, Jos Wales. if ':,Plotitical' economists ‘ have been pursuing a will o’the wisp in :their re- searches. They have been trying to demonstrate to the world that cheapness of production is the end and aim of‘all employment. whereas cheapness is en- tirer subordinate to an all pnevading activity. By way of illustration, sup- pose for argument sake that under Tilley’s tariff the taxation on imports has risen $2 per head, is this too much to pay for an increase of 25 per cent. in the volume of business transacted, Implying as this increase does a rise in the rate of remuneration ? Of course such a contention as that a change in a tarifl’ can produce activity will he scouted by free traders ;;but the facts lie on the surface-and can be oblerved by all who do not wilfully shut their eves. Those who have no incense to offer at the altar of any theory will con- trast the state of trade in Britain with its'condition in Canada, and if they cannot go as far as we do in our deâ€" tltictions therefrom they will at least ad- mit that the contrast is instructive.â€" Telegram. \VESToN.-â€"Reeve, Wm Tyrrell.

In Markham Township, the election was by aeclamation with the ex- eeption of 3rd Deputyâ€"Reeve, which was coult'sted by Mr John Duncan and Mr Foeter, the latter being returned by rmine 2'5 votes. We are informed that a number of votes were lost to Mr. DuncanJhrough his opponents misrepre- senting his position on certain questions The electors at the rear were informed that Mr Duncan's return meant the re- moval of the toll gates on Yonge Street.

However strongly the freetradcrs may argue in fayor of their dogma, the fact remains that that dogma recognizes only two out of- the three parts of which every indus~ triel community consists : manufacturer, husbandmaa and middleman. The free- iraders talk ofconsumers, but all are consumers, and to enable all to be conâ€" sumers as well as producers, all must have work, and that all may have work suitable for their physical strength or mental endowment there must be variety of- employment.

There is something instructive in the comparison between the improvement in the trade of Great Britain and Canada during the past year. On the authority of the London ‘ Times, the increased volume of British trade during that period is only between three and four percent. On the aggregate of British trade this is something very consider- able, but to individual industries it can mean very little improvement. In Cam Ida on the other hand we believe there has been" an improvement of at least twentyâ€"five per cent. all round. Some industries have more than doubled in the volume of transactions, and we do not. know of one which has not a greater increase to-show than the average of English trade. There must be some reason for this beyond the fact that Canada is anew country, for its new- ness is becoming less so every day. Pro- vidence has dealt.- bountifully with .the country, and" the harvests have been plentiful ; but activrty in agricultural affairs does not necessarily imply com- merc1al activity. though the stereotyped economical argument is to that effect That the manufacturing interests of the country have been judiciously encouragâ€" For Sale or to Letâ€"Isaac Snider Annual Meeting of A9ricul'a1 Socâ€"Joel Ream an Note Lostâ€"Chas Cooper Annual Meeting of Ag Societyâ€"Joe} Reamnn Goldâ€"Stinson & Co, Bestâ€"True & Co $66 Per Weekâ€"Hallo“ & Co, Ni. 31: ‘ Whole ~No.’1227: British and Canadian Tradé.

Well, thinking we might learn a. little etiquette, in case Mark should take a fancy to send us an invitation, we read it, but by St. Patrick, if they didn’t finish by making Mark introduce St. Jacobs Oil.

The procession was headed by the Richmond Hill Band, and the Teston Band brought up the rear. The Company mustered twentyâ€" five strong, and left the fire hall about 6:30. p. m., with the engine and hose reel beautifully decorated, torches blazâ€" ing, banners waving, and rockets and Roman candles flying through the air. The route was from the hall along Yonge street to VVright’s carriage worL's ; down to Duncumb’s, and back to the hall. A Concert was held in the Masonic Hall, which was crowded to the doors. The chair was filled by the captain of the Company, Mr John Sanderson. A very good programme was rendered, the prin- cipal feature ofwhich was two beautiful songs. by Mrs John Duncan, which were highly appreciated by all judges of a sweet and cultivated voice. M rs Duncan has not sang: in public for some years, and her renditions on Monday evening delighted those who had the pleasure of hearing her on former occasions, as well as those to whom it was the first appear- ance. Miss Flora Coulter gave a song in her usual charming manner. Miss Coulter is one of our best singers, and we certainly are proud of her ability and the voice with which she is gifted. The icornet solos by Mr C. Savage, and the instrumental solos by Mr Hume were iwarmly applauded. as were also readings given by Mrs W. Pugsley, Mrs A. Wright, and W. A. Sanderson, Mr J. C. McDonald gave an exhibition of a number of sleight-of-hand tricks, several of which were cleverly done for an ama- teur, and some could not have been more skillfully performed by a professor of the art. The Band played several pretty selections, which were creditath per- formed. and showed that the Richmond Hill Band had no superior in even our large towns and cities. Miss Flora Coulter, Miss Sanderson and Miss Nicholle accompanied on the piano dur- ing the evening. The receipts are esti- mated at over $50. ‘ SKATING RINK.â€"-The Skating Rink is now in full blast, and we hope Mr. Gilroy will meet with the patronage he so richly deserves by his perseverance in providing ice. On Tuesday and Wednesday evenings. the rink was crowded, and if'there is any better ex- ercise or more pleasant and harmless amusement to be found, we would like to know it. The ice is in splendid con- dition,and those who enjoy sport of this kind seem anxious to make the most ofit. A Carnival wille held on Tuesday evening next, when the Band will be present. We wish Mr Gilroy a successful year, and hope the skating will last until he hns received a fair recompense, at least, for his trouble and expense. CATTLE FAIRâ€"The fair on Wedâ€" nesday wnsa rather slim one. There were a number of beef cattle on the grounds, but only two or three Were in good condition, and some were very poor. Mr H. Hopper bought a fine cow from Mr Ed. Sisley, for 855, and Mr W Pugsley bought: a few of the best animals. Mr R Pugsley, of Egling- ton, also bought two or three beef cattle. The prices were fair, running: from $35 to $50. Besides these there were quite a number of other sales.

The singing was unusually grand and beauli ful, a number of young ladies and gentle. men from 'l'liornhill assisting. The Rev Mr Shanklin delivered an excellent sermon. NEW YEARS’ Dunâ€"The day was very quiet here. There was a good deal more calling done, than formerly, but here, as elsewhere throughout the counâ€" try, the custom seems dving out. A large crowd of skaters spent a pleasant afternoon on Wilson’s pond, while others went out to Patterson pond. The skat- ing was very good. At Eckardt's. Sale on Wednesday last quite a number of cattle were sold, also other articles.
