SOME ELECTION RUMOURS. The Whig accepts quite cheerfully the declaration of the conservative candi- date to the effect that he is not an aspirant for political appointment, He would refuse the superintendency of the Cobourg asylum if it were ofiered to him. The position is one which is to be envied, and if it is undesirable there is probably not another in the gift of the Whitney government which will be acceptable. The talk of Dr. Ross' appointments did not originate with the 'Whig, but was current rumour upon the street. It was given importance because the conservative paper insisted that there should be some recognition of the 3 UNFAIR TACTICS. * * ¥ GREAT LAGK OF HONOR IN THE NEWSPAPERDOM OF VANCOUVER. m---- The Wheels Out There Turn Only For Money--W. B. McInnes, Will Be Elected in Vancouver. Special Correspondence. Vancouver, Jet. 13.--As the political campaign goes on, the ear of the elec- torate is being lent with an unusual interest to the arguments set forth by each of the candidates as to why they should be supportedy The arguments the aspirants seem to come front a source of inexhaustibility but for the most part they are not supported by facts, and the man who | Tories are saying it was unfair for Mr. Harty to use the Locomotive Works' new contract for party ad- it unfair to ingston's further prosperity ? Is it unfair to state a fact and a truth? If this is the contention then we présume that the tories will consider it honest tactics to spread broadcast the lie that the Grand Trunk Pacific R.R.

Is it honest and patriotic for the tories to man's service in South Africa, and the only fitting recognition seemed to be that which had a direct relation to his However, the candi- date says he is not open to an ap- pointment, presumably of any kind, and he ought to know what he wants.

Who ever claimed it was the tion of Mr. Harty, the individual, | which was essential to the prosperity | of the locomotive works and of the elec- | city|? No one. What is essential is that the liberal government, which has been the stead- of the locomotive works, | that fast friend shall be returned to this industry, on which the prosper- ity of the much depends, shall get a square deal and forced to close its doors as its power so city so not be pre- decessor was by the tory government. It is because Mr. Harty is the can- didate of that liberal government that his election is essential. Had he retired it would have been just as ssential to elect his successor. A IN DISTRESS. The of Mr. Harty have been in distress indeed, for some time. a PARTY opponents hard pressed for him and complain I'hey have been grievance against that he should not have allowed the zovernment elevator to be erected at Port Colborne.

This was part of a large and gener- al scheme which concerned the wes- eri provinces as well as Ontario and Juebee, and it engaged the attention ind elicited the support of the mem- ers generally. When Mr. Harty look- od the matter, did, and liscussed question with the gov- rnment, assurance from the most that the Port Colborne works would not affect Kingston, that it was meant simply to lighten eraft that through the Welland eanal at its pre- the into as he the he reliable had the sources could not pass sent depth.

When the campaign first started it was apparent that fairness and truth- fulness was not to take any very im- portant part in the game, if some of the candidates were to have their way and if mud-slinging could have the ei- fect of covering up the real issue, or of diverting our attention from the real issue. The observance of these facts, it seems, were made by all the electors at once, for immediately | the fight was on, the speakers did not | lack for an audience. I have. been present at all the principal meetings of the three candidates, Melnnes, Co- wan and Martin.
