Some _,-... ..,.,- Now the lists of ll-L`-$5 were prepared with special care, and at special expense, for the special purpose of giving the con servatives a benefit ; inieerl it is the belief of some that it was the franchise act, and the operation of it, that saved the gmw ` ernment from defeat. Since l.~l.*i.' the feel- ings of the electors have undergone a material change. The act has not been popular with even the niinisterialists. Pro- tests from all sides have been put in against the ctzmbrous and expensive and unjust measure. The people it was supposed to specially favour, the young men, it specially injures. All who have qualied as voters since I885 have been disfranchised. and they, and the thousands who will qualify between now and I390, will be deprived of the votes which they should have. The fact appears to he that the government, satised that the lists of I885 cannot ba- improved upon-feeling uncertain as to the political leaning of the young men, and so depriving them of the electoral privileges which they claiin-hns decided to go to ' the country before the revision again occurs. The plea of the government, in taking charge of the franchise. was that it desired to make this uniform in all the provinces,but it has not been made uniform and the opin- ion is growing that the government has never meant to assimilate it, but to doctor and delay it as to political expediency suggested. The, treatment the young men are receiving is enough to make them the ymost uncompromising opponents of the qovorulsent. Of course it may be said that their displeasure is a matter of no conse- quence, that without votes they cannot do any harm. But they have inuence, and it is not to be ignored in an election. "It shall not be necessary that any re- vision of the lists of vuters, prepared in ac- cordance with the provisions of the l`I|ec~ tural frnnchise act, shall be pmceetlml with luring the pre.-sent. year, 1889, but the lists of vuters in force at the time of the passing of this act shall cnntinue in twcorulance with the provisions of the said act. in the year I890 " 1 Al._ I:.._ at log: ____._ ..__..___._-.l YOUNG MEN IGNORED.

LA ___.,,__A,__. .|__` ____ ___ A correspondent of the W991`, Rambler," makes a wreck of the absurd statements of .lIr`Gi[/'Grr:vIIo, the paper of the Montreal university. in regard to the attendance of women students at the leading colleges of Canada. The claim was lately set up that Vt-(ill had more ladies entered on ll! class rolls than all the other collcgesiin the do minion, the statistics, according to it, being : Montreal, 109 ; Toronto, '27 : Halifax. 34 ; Kingston, I5 ; Cobourg. I6. So far as hing- ston is concerned a serious mistake was made, and R.ainbler" corrects it. The num- ber of young women attending the ants classes in Queen's is 3:2, and in medicine `.20, making a total of 5'2, (not l.'n as stated), and making it lend in point of population thus : Momreal, .03`) per cent. ; Toronto. .0l7 per cent. ;Halifi.x, .094 per cent. ;Kingston. ..`l'. .') per cent. ;(,`olmurg. .032 per cent. Moreover the lists of all the colleges except- ing Queen's are lengthened by the addition to them of the names of persons who rank as pnrtials." otherwise persons who are not tilting a full course, but find it convenient and profitalrlo.` to attend lectures occasion ally or la-par!mentally. (lt partials .\lt(.`ill has 77 out of lil`J, and Halifax 26 out of 34. Kingston has not one. All who are pur- suing study within the classic walls of Queen's have some definite plan in view, and as a preliminary to it desire szraduation. Of the .3. hnlv students here every one is registered as an uudcrgruluate, and those attending the medical classes and taking any special suhjects are not included in the arts course. The whole exhibit is exceed- ingly gratifyimz. It shows that King-tou has a noble lead in the higher education. Queens was, indeed, the first to try co` education, the tire! to try `separate educa- tion, snd the rst to send women as medical practitioners into the world.

He had no less than $80,lN!() insurance on his life. and about all of it was obtained by joining the various fraternal insurance organizations. For a year he had worked his way into the various orders, among them Ancient Urder of United Wmluncn, and only the night be: fore his death was initiated in the Empire (lrdcr of Mutual Aid. going direct from the lodge room to the baths where he ended his life. He probably did not carefully read the conditions, under which he obtained in surance in the various orders. one of which is that suicide makes one's claim null and void. And some of his friends may not know this though the knowledge will gradually down upon them when they come to present- their claims.
