As an example of how protection assists the workers, and to show what a beneficent all round institution the protectionist tariff is, we can cite a Riverstone case which recently came under our notice. Mr. James Rone, always an industrious man, has lately effected considerable improvements at his place on the Riverstone Heights. He sunk a well and cemented it, and also erected a 400 gallon tank on a stand, running pipes through to the kitchen, where a tap can be turned on. He purchased a semi rotary, pump w20 Sep 1903ith which to force the water from the underground tank into the elevated one. First he made enquiries from Mr. E. Joseph, who had previously bought a semi-rotary pump, as to price, and that gentleman had paid 21s for his. Mr. Rone's surprise can be well imagined when he was told that ' the price now is 32s 6d.' Needless to say this incident only tended to confirm his belief that protection is a snare and a delusion.

OBITUARY.
MR. DAVID GOSPER.
It is with great regret that we have to record the death of another of Windsor's highly respected residents, in the person of Mr. David Gosper. The deceased was a son of Mr. Alder- man J. T. Gosper, of "The Terrace," Windsor, and had lived in the Hawkesbury all his life. He was a man of quiet, unassuming nature-a characteristic trait of the family-but in his own quiet way did much good, and won the respect of all with whom he came in contact. He was 48 years of age, and leaves a widow and four children-one son and three daughters-including Misses Annie Grace (a nurse), Eva and Edie, and Mr. Harry Gosper, a porter on the rail- way at Werris Creek. Deceased had been a great sufferer for over twelve months, with that dire complaint consumption, and although everything possible was done for him by those near and dear and skilful doctors, he gradually sank and passed away on Sunday night. Recently he spent three months with his sister at Bathurst, but the benefits he derived by the change were but temporary, and the symptoms of his old com plaint soon returned, and his friends realised there were no hopes for his recovery. Sincere sympathy is expressed in all sides for the bereaved widow and members of the family at the loss of their breadwinner. The funeral took place on Tuesday afternoon, and was largely attended. The coffin was a polished cedar, with silver mountings, emblematic of the order of Oddfellowship. Deceased was a very old member of the Prince of Wales Lodge, the brethren of which followed the remains to their last resting place in St. Matthew's Church of England. The pall- bearers were Messrs F. J, Mortley, J. P., (Mayor), Joseph Ward, J.P., L. J. Barnett, G. Kirwan, and G. Pye. At the church the Rev. S. G. Fielding delivered an address, and paid a high tribute of respect to the memory of the deceased. A hymn was also sung, and the " Dead March " played as the corpse was conveyed from the church to the grave. The funeral arrangements were carried out by Mr. Thomas
Primrose.
