It is announced that the conserva- tives in the commons are sending forth literature by the cart load, the most of it being highly colored re- ports as to the alleged scandals of the government. The further fact is - stated that "a policy of slander and thisrepresentation are entered upon by the tories to wegain power." There is evidence of this in the work of the opposition during the present session. Its object has been to discredit the government. The theory is that - if the administration can be given a bad name more will be accomplished than by honest criticism to unsettle public opinion, 'To ofiset this scandal campaign the task has beey essayed in some quar- ters of "¥eviving the iniquities of the BOATS!

It seetns a great waste of y tod call a convention of democrats at Denver, at an expense of hundreds pf thousands of dollars; simply to record the will of Mr. Bryan and make him the candidate. Already the necessary majority of the delegates has been se- cured, and the registration of them will be in his favour and a matter of form. The routine has been follow- ed the same as if there were to be something to do in the national gath- ering, as if therel were to be a fierce conflict, while the appearances sare that everything will pass off too quietly th give a fitting eclat. A New York paper, with a great dis- play of sagacity, suggests that Mr. Bryan retire and give the party, or what is left of it, a chance to select some one else. Supposing Mr. Bryan werp to do this, what would be the result ? Some one would get the call, but not the election. Every man is not born to be a king, and every man is not born to be a president. Cir- cumstances favoured Mr, Roosevelt. He was" thought worthy of the vice- presidency, being a man of capacity, of dash, of sterling integrity, but with a McKinley in view he was thought of for the higher office. Men are sometimes in training for the, responsibilities of state, and as- sume office with every qualification for the discharge of public duty. It was so of Roosevelt, of Hughes, and of many others. | They make good the public expectations, because tliéy are equipped with the mental and physical not for success.
