Arthur Daigle, postmaster at ST..

has retired across the line Into Canada,
whence the United States government
wishes him TO come over on charge Of

the case, il correctly reported, are pc

largely French, and il seems that Daigle
acted as kind Of private secretary TO
large portion OF the community, writing
their letters for them and receiving the
replies, etc. There seems TO have been no
intention Of anything wrong, and there
was no trouble until some little difficulty
arose between the postmaster and one OF

camps and every method possible has
been employed to drive them out. Not
satisfied with poisoning sheep by the
