THE LIBERAL is not oppOScd to a 'fair discussion on electric railway matters as they effect our county, but the editor of this paper admits that it is a little exasperating to be told by the Toronto World that we are “ championing the cause of the Met- ropolitan Railway on Yonge Street." If giving the Metropolitan Company credit for the commendable enter- sprise it has shown in bringing such a convenience to the doors of the people along Yonge Street, at the same time rapping the management over the knuckles for its many short- comings, we. must plead guilty to the charge. We would like to see the connection made between the Metro- 'pOIitan and the C. P. R. simply be- cause we think it would be a good thing for the people on both sides of Yonge Street, and the county as a whole. If the junction incidentally {benefits the railway companies surely 'THE LIBERAL or The World need ‘not object. After quoting an extract from an .article in this paper, The World of “Thursday continues that “ the nigger in the fence in the quotation is that -while control of freight rates is re .served for the County Council, the Metropolitan Railway by the trick in effecting the junction with the C. P. B. would escape the jurisdic- tion of the Province of Ontario, and .the regulation of rates as vested in ‘the Ontario Legislature," 8:0. 'When the Metropolitan went to the County Council in November .last asking it to support the applica- tion, a condition was proposed by the Council and at once submitted to, by the Railway, providingthat the. .operation of the Railway Should be subject to all agreements which had, been entered into between the County Council and the Company. The .- order of the Railway Committee makes provision for this in the fol- :lowing wonis:â€"“ The Metropolitan :Company shall not operate its. rail- uway by any other power than elec- tricity on Yonge Street; and in its operation shall be subject to such .agreemcntsas maybe, or 1mm here- tofore been, entered into between the County Council of York and the Met- ;ropolitan Company.” V The agreement between the Conn-K'- :ty and the Railway which is printed .onpagerfifl4 of the Ontario Statutes .of 1897, contain the following clauses. which govern the operation of freight and rates»:â€" 21. -" All cars are to be stopped for the purpose of loading and un- .loadiug milk cans at stepping places :half a mile apart to be~designated by a the County Engineer." 26. “ The railway shall be used for the-conveyance of such freight, goods, tor merchandise as shall be :designated by the Railway Commit- .tee of the Council. Freight rates are .to be fixed between the County Coun icil and the Company, and in case of idifi‘ei‘cnce are to be settled by the ;Lieutenant-Governor-in-Council, and .all rates that .may be charged ,whether so agreed upon or otherwise ;settled are subject to revision of the Licutenant-Governor-imCounciI from. time to time.” 38. “In the .event of any differ- ,ence between the County and the Compun'v as to any matter or thing :to be done .or performed under the gterms of the agreement then the same ‘is to be settled by~the Senior Judge .of the County of York from whom :there is an appeal. to'the High Court and from that Court an appeal may lie to the Court of Appeal, but no further appeal shall lie from the do! .cision of the Court of Appeal." It seemsiperfectly plain from the ,a'bove that if the writer of the articles “which have been-,for some time apâ€" ¢I'â€"¢~ a ma: S's-eukmeau. may“.th ' ~ .msbuesm ' ‘ " - g i i- I pouring in The World were honest, - W- 327qu Criminal , .. so no . ‘ ' ‘ ' - i 1'? he would. instead of trying to make ' t â€" V E 15.x 0‘ capital for Mr. Maclwn. have gm.“ E Did you our noticehow fcw poo-l 5 ‘ a V ‘1 .

The Aiiiiitci-sai-y and Christmas En- tertainment. in connection with the Methodist Sabbath School was sucâ€" cessful and enjoyable. On Sunday Rev. Mr. “7ell\vood and Rev. Mr. Largo preached interesting and ap- propriate sermons to the. children, who wcie all seated (Hi the platform, which had been erected for the enter- taiiiment the following (‘\'t‘l)ll)g. There were good congregations to hear both sermons. The cantata, “Santa Claus Expect~ ed.” given on Christmas Night, was exceptionallyinteresting and seemed to please everybody present. The i-cp- ’ rcsentation was exceedingly creditable as an amateur performance, and every feature seemed to pussies some charm for the audience which was very ap- preciative. Many of the children proved themselves admirably gifted for filling the role of their particular parts, which \Vcre presented with a. degree of iiaturaliiess that would have done credit to those of much older , years. The cantata Contained no complicated plot, but the musical com- position, which coiiipi-iscd many pretty chorusosva nd Solos, was cleverly arranged, and led up by «interesting steps to the expected \‘isit'of jolly old Santa Claus, the patron «also (-l boys and girls.

The piece was led by Mr. A. J. Hume, who was ably supported by twelve boys well uniformed. The Brownies were costumed in a fantastic manner. and they received a generous share of applause, which they richly deserved. Mr. F. J. Johnston made an ideal: Santa Claus, both in appearance and actions. He had long white hair and a flowing beard, white boots and leg- gings, and he was nimble and grace- ful. So true was be to the representa- tion that little wonder was it that. every face beamed with joy as the fairies and brownies flocked around him. We should be pleased to par- ticularize many of the youthful per- formers who took prominent parts with so much credit to themselves and‘ their instructors, but where the num- ber is so large we find that this is im- possible. Sutfice it to say the cantata was complete. and not a bitch was ob- served from beginning to end.
