If that did not mean that patronage still fAourishes, what did it mean? We are not going to swallow whole everything (he Kingston editor had to say on this subject, We are not quite prepared to admit that his system la the ideal one, but unfortunately, we are not yet living In an ideal state, and we must be prepared, within certain Hmbtations, to accept conditions as we find thems, And, in the great majority of cases, there Is not mueh fault 10 be found with the present ayatem of applying polivieal patronage to the Alling of the thousands of miner positions which are within the gif of the federal and provincial government, EDITORIAL NOTES A traveller veports that the women in the South Sea Islands are poor conversationalists, What! do the men there do all the talking? tt ---- Judging by the appearance of the fenders of some carn passing through Oshawa, they have been "on Pleasure ben," .
