Telford has been re- 'iiotninated to contest North Grey in the coming Dominion election The Dominion election is expected to take place about Nov. 8, although the exact date is not yet decided open. Hon. Wilfrid Laurier opened the campaign in Qaebeo last week by an address at Borel. J. W. Strallou has been nominated for the Dominion House in Wegt Pet- crboro. It is said Mr. Oamej will probably have something to say in Mr. Btrattou's riding during the cam- paign. If he docs, there ought to be Dome interesting times down in West Peterboro. tempered by the snii's absence. It wijuld malvo too long au aiiielc fir these columns to follov7 the argument referred to. Wo mention it simply to chronicle one more instance where theory and deduction have bec^ fol- lowed hard by scientific proof. It is an unimportant matter in itself where Eden was located, but the proven fact that our polar regions were the first portions of our globe hitbitable by man and the strong probability that on sunken continents there onr forefath- ers lii'st saw the light of the now sun, is not only exceedingly fascinating knowledge, but it will start scientific research in a new channel. It will ako cause us to stiotch our iuiagina- tions over a vaster period of time than we have been wont to do when gauging the vast period ot time that must have rlapscd since the three riyerE that (lowed out of iwradise were merged into one groat arctic ocean, in the blow submcrgcnco oi p:i8t ages.

Borne years ago a Boston professo^' published a book in which ho endeav- ored to prove that the Eden of the liible was situated at the north i>olo, and not in tlio Enphrales valley as was generally believed. He adduced, too, a surprising mass of evidence to prove his contention, both soieutific and legendary, The book made aouio interesting reading bat was not taken very seriously by the public. Ho endeavored to prove tiiat at one time the north polar latitudes embraced a torrid region in the process of the earth a cooling and formed the fast spot ou]earlh habitable b} maq. Only this week the cable tells us that the British Bcientifio Association has discovered some startling facts that go to piMve correct the theory of the Boston profodsor, but include also the antarctic polar regions in the former habitable climate. The investigation of Bunlion continentK prcv3 by fossil and geological remains that the frigid polai regions were at one time of a tropical uatnre and covered by tiopisal verdure.
