SirJohn A. Macdunsld acknmvlcdgucl the existence nfa general election fund to aicl in the Ontario elections. It was well known that the Grits had immense sums of money at their disposal and were not sparing of it` in order to defe dates, Sir Joh the Government candi- lt that this `d8l.0I`llIld((l action of his ponenta must be met in .1 similar nnum hence he was anxious that in.` rriendi should aid in `meeting the enemy on his own ground. He acknowledged that he hsd received a. large contribution, unsolicited by hiui, and also a amount from Mr Abbott. Now the question comes up, ,Is it right to spend money at` elections, more than is legally necessary l" Certainly it is not, and we don't attempt to justify it. But who are the nien who ing the stone of nccusa.- tion I Are they without sin I They would have people believe that they are ; but it is too -notorious a fact that theyiat the last election spent hundreds of thousands of (lul- lsrs for the purpose of defeating the Minis- _ terial candidates. That was their object, and they spent money freely to accomplish it. Somebody must have supplied it for that purpose. The only difference we can see between their action and that of the Government is, that the one is in power and ` naturally desire to keep it, while the 0pposi-- tion want into oice, and are prepared to spend any amount of money in order to gain the Treasury Benches. Therein only is the difference. Sir John A. Macdsnaldhfriends contributed money to aid him, and the Grits ` supplied the funds to help their friends.

The above paragraph is most disgraceful, being simply a tissue of lies deliberate and mu- licious from beginning to end. No resemb- lance striki_ng" erotherwise was observed in the handwriting referred to. Nor did any person say the gentleman spolzen of was in Montreal at the time referred to, and if they had it would have made little diffe- rence, being untrue. It is well known that the letter in question was stolen on the 2nd or 3rd iust., and tludt the Provincial Synml met on the 10th. That any such suspicion (as is spoken of) was engendered is as equally untrue as the others. Such in prostitution of the Press as is evinced in the publication of the above paragraph we are happy to say is rarely found in Canada, and never of course in a respectable journal.

TheevidencealreadygivenbeforetheColn- Inissioners, especially that of the members of the Cabinet who have been examined, exclusive of the statement of Sir John A. hfaedonald, proved in the most unquestion- ableananner that instead of the Govern- ment having negotiated with the American gentlemen in question, or their representative George W. Mchinllen, they were, from the inception `of the scheme for constructing the road, positively opposed to doing any- thing that would permit of the Americans getting such a hold as might lead to them,- at a future time, being in a position to con- trol it. We cannot possibly arrive at any other conclusion from the evidence which has been given before the Commisssion. It is all very ne for the Grits to say: Oh if the witnesses were only cross examined, a different story would be told of the result of their testimony !" Such talk pure nonsense. No crcss-ex- amination, however; severe, even by the greatcross-examiner," Blake, could shake the unequivocal testimony of Messrs Cem- ey of the Government was entirely opposed to allowing the Americans to have anything todo whatever with the read, either a constructors or stockholders. More em- gentlelnen could not have been used, and more bonclnsive evidence of the falseness of the charge could not have been given than that which their statements supplied. As members of the Government they knew what was going on, and as members of the Government they satisfactorily disposed of the charges made. But in addition to their testimony, and that of the witness who pre- ceded them, we have now before us a can- did statement by the Premier, which con- rms all wehave previously said in vindi- cation of the Government in" this matter. Iaetns see what Sir John A. Macdonald told the Commissioners.
