Never was the necessity ofa lock- up rendered more distrcssingly eviâ€" dent than on the 25th. On a mod- erate calculation, there were some twenty or thirty individuals in the village on Monday to whom' a few hours incarceration would héve been in the highest degree beneficial. But they were allowed to go un- whipt ofjustice just because the needful institution did not exist. However anxious those in authority may have been to preserve order, however determined to repress ruff- ianism,,they realized that they were practically" helpless. Of what use to arrest a noisy, pot-valiant lunatic, when there was no place in which to confine him ? And yet arrest and confinement would have a magical effect on very many of those who were guilty of disturbingthe peace, for the delinquents were by no means in every case lost to all feel- ings of shame and respectability. \V'e are satisfied that the mere pres- ence of a lock~up would have more effect in preventing idiotic fighting, or rather pretence of fighting, than twenty constables. We have a good opinion of our present Council’s zeal and judgment for the public weal. We are well aware that, .havmg due regard to economy, it has its hands full. We cannot, neverthe- less, refrain from expressing the hope that before the return of many Queen’s Birthdays, our Village may be provided with that dismal but necessary buildingâ€"a village lock- up. When will Canada possess a re- liable newspaper? \Ve mean when will it have a journal the first prim ciple 0t which shall be to give its readers; as far as possible, an ac- curate statement of all events which are ot public importance? W’e tear that the present generation is not fated to see such a paper. As mat- ters now are; it .you tell us the name of a sheet, we know betore a single line has appeared in its columns on any given subject what its line of argument (?) will be. Consider the case 01 the two great dailies of To- ronto. Certainly they cannot be charged with lack of enterprise. Nor is ability wanting. But who that is possessed of even a small modicum of sense and discrimination would accept the version of either of them on any- political question? “'hat is good. in an opponent is v; i ' v'v inimized. or‘totallv ignored. Our annual Fair is a thing of the past, but its effects are not so tran- sient. Oi the good which it has this year done, it is not our intention to speak. There is one point, how- ever, in connection with it, to which we must reter. We mean the dis- satisfaction, ielt and expressed, with the decisions ofthe var1ous judges. Of all the rare birds in this world, the rarest is the competitor who is content with a verdict adveise to himself. And yet in Agricultural Fairs, where the objects exhibited are usually so equal in merit, it is astonishing that there can be a hu- man being so unreasonable as to be unable to account for a deteat on other grounds than partiality and injustice. No wonder that men are unwilling to accept so thankless a task as that ofjudge. Let him be ever so honest,ever so anxious to bestow prizes on the most deserving, his motivesand knowledge and judg- ment are sure to be impugned. The exasperating part of this habit of fault-finding is that it seldom or never takes the tangible form of a @ecific charge backed uprwith evi~ (Rhine and proofs. Not the less does intend to stunt and cripple the Fair. ’Illio officers of the Agricultural So- ciety are, of course, powerless to act when nothing but hoieâ€"in-the-oorn- er talk and vague insinuations are offered tor their consideration. Ex- hibitors would do well either to swallow their chagrin and disap- pomtment in Silence, or else pro- claim their wrongs in the proper quarter, and be ready to substanti- ate the grievance ot which they complain. Unless this is done, no attention ought-to be paid to what, in the absence of all evidence, must be regarded as the outcome of that vanity to which man is so prOne to tall victim. RICHMOND HILL.
