A Badical Chaho«.â€" Daniel Snllivan, of Maleom, Ont., takes pleasore in recommend- ing Burdock Blood Bitters for dy»p«P«a. It oared him after years of suffering, mm being a sceptic he =8 now a confirmed beheyer in that medicine. The Editor oftheFlesberton Advance proposes adopting the strictly cash in advance system in regard tc news paper subscriptions, similar to city papers. If this could be successfully enforced, â- one of the greatest hardships and annoyances of the country publisher would be removed. A newspaper subscription is so trifling in itself, and when scattered generally â- over the area of twenty miles in diameter, besides occasional ones ail over the continent, it can easily be seen how difficult it becomes to make satisfactory collections. There are always those who pay prompt, and generally this class is in the majority, yet, even twenty five per cent are delinquent, while the lialf of that number are doubtful as to evjer paying, it makes the list at once unsatisfactory We can see no valid reason how- ever why the strict cash system can- uot be introduced and enforced. Our prompt paying subscribers would re- quire to assist in the undertaking, (what we mean by prompt paying subscribers are those who renew say within a month of the date when their sub. expired, as well as those renew- ing generally before it had expired) because if such a course was decided on by the publisher, all names whether first class or doubtful would be struck off the list at a given time, say two weeks after the subscription had ex- pn:ed if not renewed. This would doubtless have the effect of decreasing the list of subscribers, at least for a time, but we are inclined to think the loss would not equal the gain, first, from supplying papers from yeartoyear to many who do not pay, and also of securing the amount m all casesinad- vance from those who pay when in arrears. For our own part we have not fully decided our future course, but in case we adopt the "Cash in Advance" system for the year 1887, we will give due notice so that all can govern them« selves accordingly in the mean time we would like to hear from our pat- rons as well as our exchanges on the matter.

To the Editor of the Sta»t)abd. Dear Sir, â€" Through your coulmns I wish to make following enquL-y, namaly, how out of 75 delegates legally entitled to yote at the Editob Standabd.â€" Inotice a letter in the Owen Sound Times over the signa- ture, of Neil McColman finding fault with the personal of thelate Conservative Contention for East Grey. He is the last man who should say anything about the manipulation of conventiofis. He squeals now because he was not so successful in that line as he was two years ago. Figures they say won't lie, but McColman tries to make them do some queer work for instance, he says Artemesia only sent 12 de.egates now I have it upon undoubted authority that there were 20 properly qualifi- ed delegates from that township, and when so far estray in one township, whynpt in all? Again. I would just ask hin^-oni question; when the first ballot was taken showing 110 ballots cast, why did he not then take ex- ception to the vote He is too old a politican not to have knuwn how many delegats were at the convention before the balloting took place, and I may just say nere that I have attended, during my residence in the county for theJast ?^5 years, every conservative con- vention held, and am free to affirm that a fairer or more representative convention I never attended, or one which was so free from wirepulling or secret caucusing; every de- legate appeared to have his mind made up to gel the very best man possible as their representative. The conservatives ot this riding have never been betterjsatisfied with the choicejof a conven Honthan on this occasion, and no convention, that could be «alled, of at all if a represen- tative character, would reveise the vote given for Mr. Borke. Both before and after the balloting Mr, McColman plebged himself to abide by the decision of the convention without a word of objection to representatives constituting tbe convention. His selfish attemp now to create disturbance and division cannot possibly result in any gain to himself either of influence or popularity, and will, if persist- ed in, only serve to prove to the conservatives of £ast Grey how ungrateful a man his type can be. The party oonnot now be divided to any ex- tent on the choice of Mr. Borke; ho is a gentle|manwhose character is without reproach whose ability for the conduct of public busines g has been proved by years of experience in the County Council where important trusts have been confided to him He is a representative that any constituency might be proud of. His acquaintance with phplie afFairs, general intdligence, culture and gentlemanly bearing will soon place him inparhament, as a man adding strength to his party, and having weight and^influencejwhen the interests of his cons tituents can be served.
