NOTES FROM THE NORTH.

Cold, bleak'weather attended a ; recent meeting of the Socialists at ;tho Log. Despite this fact, there was a good attendance. The ardour" of those Huntly Revolutionists is not easily quenched. Comrade B. Couch wass chairman. Comrade W. J. Patterson spoke with decided effect upon . "Poverty : Its Cause and Cure." Comrade J. E. Duncan dealt very conclusively with "Some Economic Errors."

Thus the "Social Democrat": —"One of the best addresses listened to lor some considerable time was delivered by Comrade T. Marshall, of Huntly, at the Queen street wharf on Sunday afternoon. In burning language that rivetted the attention of his hearers, he unfolded, in characteristic style, hh OAvm life's economic story, Avhich had a telling effect. The applause;received when stepping off the platform indicated the large croAvd's appreciation. Marshall has the goods _ and knows how to deliver them. It is; up to tho Huntly comrades to make use of his ability. :' Comrade Marshall has been invited to take part in the political campaign Avhich Hickey and comrades are carrying on so well. Marshall leaves to address the Waihi folks on Sunday. Good luck, all. It is with the deepest regret that we received the sad intelligence of W. E. Parry's illness. Some of us met Parry for the first time Avhen the Mines Commission visited Huntly, and he left a lasting impression among the comrades here. He is a strong force in the class struggle, and avo earnestly hope that he Avill be soon restored to good health. Tavo more accidents to record. Mr. H- Minnen, banksman, Extended 2r.ir.10, met with a severe injury to his leg, narrowly escaping the loss of life. He is progressing Avell. Mr. Dow, trucker, Extended mine, had an accident to his foot. Say, isn't the record-break-ing: pace a trifle too intense along there," workers?_— BILLY BANJO.
