HEADACHE. NEURALGIA and TOOTH- ACHE coinpktely cured by taking EASINE.—•. 2439!p. DAMAGED ROADS.— Judge Mooo, at the Conway County C-ouit on Thursday, gave judg- ment in the ca-o of the Colwyn Bay Urban Dis- trict Council against Jcweph Gray, haulage (-on- tractor, in which the Co unci 1 claimed JB29 17s 2d in respect of damage alleged to have been caused on their ruuds in Upper Colwyn Bay by cxceesire weight and extraordinary traffic. His Honour said ho load no hesitation in saying that tho da.ma.g'e to the roads had been caused as stated by the plaintiffs-the result of extra- ordinary traffic within tha meaning of the Aot. The darn/ire was not really in dispute except j oItS to the item of £ 1 5. 6d, which had not been due to the extraordinary traffic by the defend- ant's alleged nogligenoe. The Judge, after re- viewing tllo evidence, gavo judgment in favour of the plaintiffs for £27 ós 2d and costs, disallow- ing the item of £ 1 53 for alleged damage to railings on the roadside. The Clerk (Mr Janies Amphlet-t) appeared for the plaintiffs, and Mr J. W. Hughes, Conwav, for the defendant. A DISPUTED GROCERY ACCOUNT.—The County Court action adjourned at the Llandudno court last month between Messrs Pryoe Wiliiajns and Co., grocers and provision merchants, Col- wyn Bay and Ivhos-on-Sea, and Mr Frank Booth, veterinary surgieon, Old Colwyn, was resumed at the Comvrvy court on Thursday. The plaintiffs' case was that the defendant owed £ 10, balance of aooount, for goods supplied- The defendant, it was alleged, had about fifteen months ago paid one cheque for £10 at the plaintiffs' shop, the C-eylon Stores, in Abergele- road. which had, in tho ordinary course of busi- ness. been sent down to their other shop, the West End Stores, in Conway-raad. A receipt had boon given the defendant when the cheque was handed over at the Ceylon Stores, and aii. other was sent by mistake from the West End Stores.—For the defence, Mr Booth, who plead- ed his own case, eaid that, though he did not remember the transaction two cheques of S10 each had been paid on the same day—one at the West End St.or, and the other at the Ceylon Stores, and he produced receipts for both pay- ments.—Tlie Judge adjourned the case in order that the bank pass book and potty cash book from the Ceylon Stores could bo produced.— These books were now produced, and after some further evidence had been given hit Honour, in giving judgment for the plaintiffs for the amount claimed, said Mr Booth had no doubt made a mistake.

MR W. CLOUGH, M.T., ADDRESSES LIBERAL WORKERS. A meeting of Lit>cra] workers was held at the Lec- ture liall, S'oa View-tcrraee, Colwyn Bay, on Friday, wheu Mr W Clough, the member for the Skipton Division of Yorkshire, addressed a crowded audience on the subject of the Budget and the House of Lords. The meeting was presided over by Mr John Crompton, of Victoria Park. Ml Clough said he rejoiced that the Lords had forced a dissolution at such all oppcr tune time, and UpOD such an opportune question Were or were not the Lords and Dukes to bear their proper share of taxation? This Budget was the most just and equitable he had ever known. Mr Lloyd George had left untouched the necessaries of life, and bad taxed only the luxuries of existence (cheers), it was a luxury to smoke, and he supposed it was a luxury to drink it was a luxury to drive a motor car it was a luxury to have an unearned income; and it was a big luxury to have an income of over £ 500 a year. For these luxuries they had to pay (cheers) The House of Lords had failed in their duty as a second chamber, and so had no justification for the;¡ existence. existence. It was the duty of a sccond chamber to revise and olieck hasty and ill-considcred legislation.The House of Lords had done neither. They were also to apply the brake on the political coach, a thing they neve; did In the case of a Tory Government, but. when r. Liberal Government was in power they put on til- brake, whether going up-hill ot down-hill (laughter). The Lords were the tools of the Tory l'arty, and th" absolute veto must go. Mr Eettlewell moved a vote of thanks to Mf Clough, wliich was seconded by Mr McKie, who referred to the disturbance at the Unionist meatiag.beid on the previous evening,and said that if any of the youn^eT portion of the audience had contributed to the uproar he hoped it wouid not hap pen again. They should allow the other side to have a fair hearing (hear, hear). Mr F. Grubb, Liberal agent, endorsed the remarks made by the last, speaker, and on behalf of Sir Her- bert Roberta, said he would be Lhc last to encouraa'F anything like sustained interruption at a public meet- ing. He was also certain that the responsible leaders* of Liberal opinion in Colwyn Bay would do their ut- most t.o check such practices (hear, hear).
