NOTES BY THE AVAY. The iioniiiiatioiis fur the Tuivii Council


arc li.xcd fur .Monday ne.\t, but even \et the whole matter i.s lost in a maze of iiiileriiiite- ness. T'liere is no burking the f.act that in­ creasing rates are scaring bnsiness men, and as. time goes on the task of those who go candidate liunling will become mure and more difficult.


'I'lie average man hardly


dares to face the music and no wonder. •:o:


So far as jircscnt intentions go the Mayor


(Colin. Hardacre), Conn. Garnell and Conn Mitcliell of the retiring quartette will again apjieal for an encore for iiasl efforts. Cotin. Smithies stales lie is retiring. .New candi­ dates are,—well, they are not. Various names are suggested l.iit most of the gen tienien mentioned declare they will not stand. 1 can well bclitu'c it ; and I can also im.agiiie that those searching for candidates are willing to t.'lnlcli at the last straw.


During tlie week the names of Mcssis. R.


and J . W. Southworth have been siigge.sted but this seems lo have liail its origination ill their action on the schools (jueslion. and very little weight can be altacheil lo it. Eurtlier, the opinion i.s lieltl tliat they will be better .able lo secure the success of their jiroiiosals hv their present positions o! free* I loin. This morning I hear talk of » com­ promise. Tlie faiU of the mailer is. no one vet knows even the iirosjiects of prolialile starters, and for actual events we must wait till Monday. At the .same time a comprom- i.se mav be a matter of compulsion.


-:o: I - ', f y , :k i For four hours last night the Town Coun­


cil, along with representatives of the recent ratepayers’ . meeting; thrashed and re-


UMBRELLAS RE-COVERED FROM 2/-. QUICK AND PROMPT DELIVERY.

thrashed the thorny question of school ac­ commodation. A deptilaion asked th.at the de­ cision of the Education Committee on the provision of school .accommodation to be deferred until an effort was made to find some means of mastering the Board of Edu­ cation without resorting to the great e.xpen- diture at present proposed. This letl to the re-opening of the whole <]ueslion. Eventually it was decided to defer the mat­ ter to support the ratepayers in tlieir efforts.


Clithcroe people will .hope that the


efforts now in course of progress at Salford Bridge mills will meet with the success lliey deserve. An .advertisement is appearing inviting a tenant for the vacant weaving shed. New engines, boilers and shafting are available, and a thousand new looms and requisite preparatory machinery will also be jirovided to meet the requirements of suitable tenant or tenants.


^ It is a long lane that lias no turning.


Evidently we are rounding tlie comer. In one centre of the cotton industry it is slated that tile clolli demand is so active that a lew firms are looking out for looms to let. Let them come lo Clitlieroe.


M’addington will have its sewera


sclieme by and bye- .Almost everv detail in connection with the most recently jiro- jjosed sclieme had been settled, and .Mond.iy it was even mentioned tliat an agreement had been jirejiared for the land required. Now, however, tlie parishioners or at least their represenlative.s, liave taken the matter iiji. A letter was read from this source at the nieeling of the Bowlaiid Rural District Council on Monday coiiijjiaining of the high cost of the land priqioscd to In inircliascd for the iiurilicalion of the sew age of the village, and .asking for a deini tation to be aiiiioinled lo meet Col. J’arker and the Kev. 1'. A. \ . I’arker with a view lo tile jmrcliase of a field at Lillands, Wad- dington. Of course, as the villagers will have lo pay the piper there can be no ob­ jection to their calling llie tune, and if the new proposal they can secure a cliea])er and equally' efficient scheme their retjiiest for further consideration is fully Jusiilied. The conference occurs on Ttiesdav nc.vt.


Diiriiig SeiHeiiiber the area under the ad


ministration of llie Bowland Rural District Council ajijiears lo have been somewhat


severely affected by visitations of iiileclious dise.a.se. Though many of the case.s oc enrred in the iiioiilli named notifications were received during the quarter in 27 cases and schools in various jiart.s of the district Iiad to be closed. Despite these visitations the Medical Officer is able to re|iort a death rate so low as 9.9 per 1000, and a birth-rale of 26.7. It is a desirable move that warn ings ought to be given lo parents not lo allow chiUlren in homes affected ini.ving or lilaying with other children.


The older generation will learn with


regret of the demise of the Rev. D. N ielson .Manchester, formerly of Clitlieroe. “ His death is a loss lo the church, lo iho city, and to tlie whole Conne.xion,” is the trilnitu which was jiaid the other d.ay lo the late


rev. gentleman at the memorial .service at the Trimilive Metluxiist Cluircli in Great Western-street, Manchester, with which he was identified for manv t ears.


Combiiiations are in the air. Farmers


are now talking of imioiis and associ.alions. Formerly farmers fought shy of each other. One farmer w.is content to wheel his own Iiarticiilar barrow in his own particular way and in his own particular direction, and the barrow and lie were a separate entity not concerned with or .affected by the farmer and his barrow in the next field. Now they are seeing the .advantages lo be derived irom a combination of all'classes connected

mention that the other dayMr. Rowland secured a salmon weighing i6^ lbs. below Jumbles Rock Pool, near Hacking Boat and that Mr. Cross, coachman to Mrs. Hick, Mytton Hall, landed one of 12A lbs. above Mytton Bridge. Trout-fishing, of course, is now ended, and on the whole first-rate sport has been obtained^ the Riblile having contained more fish than the higher reaches of the Hodder.


Many people will during the week have


shared the pleasure of meeting on the scene of his former labours the Rev. H. H. Bellhouse, formerely vicar of Clitheroe. The pleasure is in tensified by seeing tlie rev. gentlemen ap parently in such good health. On Sunday morning he preached at llic Tarish Church id there was a crowded church of old friends and parishioners to hear hint. He is accompanied by Mrs. Bellhouse.

Mr. W. Garnett, Linton Croft, has agreed The absence of rain ye.sterday, even


thoiigli the conditions were dull and heavy, proved a strong inducement to the success­ ful fair that was held. The exhibits of stock were large, including animals of good quality and farmers and dealers also at­ tended in very large numbers. I am told that yesterday’s fair ranks with llie most successful of those held during recent years. I’robably the V fair ” weather accounted for it. Had Jiijiiter I’luvius been true to rc|)ii- tatioii there would have been a copious downfall yesterd.ay, but as he began The year, so he a])parenlly intends lo end it, records having been broken all along the line.


- :o:-


Dr. Orme may put his recent .accident down to one of


the


hardships and misforlimes of the road. The Doctor w.as driving in the vicinity of Bollon-b\-Bowl.and, when his horse sliied at a warning board in the course of removal, and :is .a consequence he sus­ tained expense and loss lo the amount of ^"15. On Mond.ay he claimed to liave the amount refunded by the Howland Rural Dis­ trict Council, but the Clerk advised that they had no legal liability. .-Ml the same it i.s a hard case, and as the horse shied at something placed in position by the District Council employees one would h.ave thought there were moral grounds for cumpen.sa- tion.


-: o:- If it is the case lliai only ricii men and


fouls go to law then 1 may indeed take it that Clitheroe people, in apparently skirk- ing litigation, lay claim lo the title of being wise. Ills Flonotir judge Coventry only sits alternate monllis now, but even on these days he lias little lo trouble him. Yeslei- day there was only one c.ase of any moment, alter a lapse of three months' In conse­ quence the judge was released shortly after twelve. Haj)]))' man!


Commenting on local matters the ‘‘I’ac-


tory Times ” this morning contains the fol­ lowing leading ojiinions The quarterly re­ port of the Clilheroe Weavers' .-Lssocialion contains the astonishing statement that 25 per cent, of the sorts calculated during the past quarter have been uiideriiaid, these underpayments ranging from one-tenth of a penny to 5Ad. a piece. It would b; iii- teresliiig to see worked out the losses in wages the weavers would h.ave sustained in twelve months had there been no Weavers’ Union in the district. We doubt very much whether without a iiniox any of these under­ payments would have been found out. .N'olhing would be lost, but jirobably much gained, by the Weavers’ Association if it went lo the trouble and expeii.se of su)>|>ly- ing every weaver in Clilheroe, wlietlier in­ side or outside the association, with a state­ ment of these facts. To those who are already members it would certainly inten­ sify their loyalty to the union, while those who are yet outside the pale of organisation it could hardly fail to induce lo become members. .-Viiyhow, the detections in ipies- tioii .siieak well for trade unioiiisni. though the benefit derived by the members is only one out of a tlionsnnd forms which trade unions render to workers." Thus the ‘‘ F'.ac- tory Times.”

It rite Manchester Education Committee on


Monday approved a scheme to provide din­ ners for poor school chi Idren at a penny each per dinner, and a' conference is shortly to be held with the Free Meals Committee with a view lo concerted action in dealing with c.ases of exceptional poverty amongst the scholars.

CASTLEITE. BOROUGH BAND CONCERT.


committee of the Borough Prize Band, held the first of a series of sacred concerts in the Public Hall on Sunday afternoon. Some of the most able artistes in tlie town and district w'ere engaged, and it must have been highly gratifying to the promoters in their endeavours lo provide first-class con­ certs and a.ssist the band oil the road to proficiency to see llie ready response of the public. There was a large attendance, though the seals below' the main entrance were not so well filled as one had imagined w'ould be the case. The artistes included: The Borough Band (conductor, Mr. J . E. Birlwell, Sabden), sojirano. Miss Grace E. Shorrock (Royal Manchester College of Music), bass, Mr. George Slater (Blacklmrii Prize Choir), solo violinist, Mr. James Tom­ linson, accompanist, Mr. Fred I’ \e, -■ LR.M.C.M., L.R.A.M. The Maia.r, Councillor Hard.acre, w ho iiresided, referred to the efforts of the members of the Band to attain the highest stale of efficiency, and said he w.as sure the people of Clitlieroc would do their best to help iheiii to that goal. The large attendance that .afternoon when the weather was hardly the best for le.aviiig the house, was a good augury of the support the people of the town w'ere ready to give. Miss Sliorrock greatly pleased her audit-

or.s, and there can be no doubt that li.ad the occasion been other than it was encores would have been demanded. The items given by this talented singer were the recit and air, “ And Cod said,” and “ Witli ver­ dure clad,” and the solo “ The Promise of life ” (Cow en). Pier voice is full and jiar- ticularly rich and pure, in the higher regis­ ter, and the renderings of the mmibers standing lo her name were excellent. Mr. tilale rwas more at home in the light­


er passages, and sang the recil “ I feel the deity,” with marked effect. In his other selections, more esiiecially Liddle’s “.-\bide w'illi me,” he was not so good as we have on previous occasions heard him. The room seemed lo have affected liiiii, for he iiad sung splendidly in practice just pre­ viously. •Mr. James Tomlinson is well known ns


:i host in himself, and in his two studies by Wieiiow'ski he enhanced his reputation as an .able interpreter of the most difficult ni:us- ters. Mr. Tomlnison’s second effort' was even belter tlian liis first. Neither of lliem w ere “ show' ” pieces. Tlie realm of sacred music does not permit of much exaggera­ tion ; it would not be sacred if there was too much display, but lo the cultured ear the phrasing was really the best that li.as been heard from Mr. Tomlin.son. The Band, under Mr. Birtwcli, rendered several pieces with pr.aisew'orlliy merit and jireci- sioii. The items were, hymn, “ Edwinslon.’' recit and chorus, “ Comfort ye,” and “ .-Viid the Glory.” Mr. B. Parker soloist, admir­ ably interpreted grand selection “ Elijah.” ami cornel solo “ Ora pro Nobis.” Mr. J. E. Birtw'cll and band. Special mention ought to be made of “ Comfort ye.” With many it w'ill live for a long time to come as the best effort the Baiul have made for years. Mr. Birtwell’s wielding of the baton was all that could be desired and it was conclusively show'll that in him they have a leader in whom the utmost coiilideiii'e ni.ay lie re­


posed. The concert was a gratifying success, the proceeds realising
