DEFECTS IN LEADERSHIP. When on the evening of November 4th the returns indicated a signal de- feat for Mr. Bryan, he was silent. He said he would have to reflect upon | what he desired to say to the Ameri- { can people. He has had time for calm reflection, and he is moved to re- | mark that he is not discouraged, and that the democratic party should not be east down. It stands for prin- | cipl#s which are bound to receive re- Indeed the party in the years--three successive terms--has accomplish- ed more out'of office than in jt. In other words the things for which the democrats -have contended have been accepted by. the republicans, and this, in Mr. Bryan's opinion, "is a sufficient those who fight for a righteous cause." He reflects that perhaps some of bis nolitical allies may not look at re- sults in that light, and so he adds : "It would have been pleasant to have been able to reward worthy democrats official positions, but the most worthy are not looking for official positions; they are looking for good they labour unsel- Cham Hi: BE 5 | cognition. last twelve congressional reward for with government, and fishly for the promotion of good gov- As for Mr. Bryan he will defeat, but join js- are ddmocrats on srnment." not worry about sue with those who | but it is hdd that they should lave consulted the union membership be- fore they capitulated, and should have stated the only terms of peace, seeing that these involved so many serious sacrifices. The subject has been for some time under review by a special committee, representing various labour organizations, and irritating has been the procedure that the retirement of Bell Hardy, chair- man, and J. H. McVeity, the secre tary of the strike committee has been demanded. Their weakness is said to be a faulty judgment, and the ver- dict may be a correct one. Yet it is recalled that these men stood up for labovr under great disadvantages, that they stood for strike as. long as they could, that they saw the cause failing under" the great distress of those who were interested in it, and that they surrendered when there seemed to be nothing else for them to do. Their judgment at fault! And punished for it? This may not be the better way of 'developing in the la- bour ranks the leaders who can be trusted to do the best they can in great emergencies, John Mitchell was censured by some coal miners when the great strike of so some years ago failed, but no one who knew him or of the suffering he en- dured whila carried the strain of battle, could honestly say that he he gave up too soon.

NESLECT OF, GOUNGIL iS CAUSING A VERY SERIOUS DELAY In Regard to Road Paving Macadamizing--Not Enot Aldermen Present Last Even- ing to Pass Paving Report. Through lack of a sufficient atten- dance of the city council members at last evening's special meetin, the ques- tion of road paving received a set back. To pass the ¢ity engineer's report recom- mending the construction of paved roads in the chief business section, fifteen votes were required. There were only fourteen members present, owing to Ald. Angrove being unable to remain, ore or two of them might have voted against - the paving proposition. e question of building of further maca- dam roads also received a set back, as the engineer's recommendation on this matter wil! depend entirely -upon the acceptance or rejection of his paving recommendation, so the two queéstiofis had to be shelved until a full meeting of council can be secured. It is now very late in the season and it is doubtful if the paving scheme can be handled next year, as certain excavations have to be made in the street before winter comes. The engineer's report as published in Saturday's Whig was presented to the council for adoption. This report re- commended that council by a &- thirds vote of those present that certain business blocks named by him be paved. Ald. Eliott wanted to know why cor- porations or non-resident property own- ers had not been consulted. Had the Board of Works enough sigmatures with- out them. Ald. Graham replied that it was difficult to get at tnem. However, the council according to law, were al- lowed to authorize paving on a two- thirds vote, without consulting any property owners. The Board of Works, Ald. Graham said, had simply brought in the report of the city engineer, and asked the council to decide on the question. Ald. McCann thought the council would be perfectly justified in acting on the recommendation of the city engin- eer, for those who had not beén con- sulted represented a very small pro- portion of the whole number. The city engineer produced a letter from the city solicitor which explained that road paving could be proceeded with in the same manner as permanent walks--viz.,, on a fwo-thirds vote of the council without the request or agree- ment of property owners. Ald.. Carson said that when macadam roads could 'be built for twenty cents a square yard, he didn't see the use of spending $2.75 a square yard for paved roads. He advocated the macadam roads, well made, for the business sec- tion as well as the other parts of the city. With proper-cénstructed asphalt water tables and sinks in the centre of the road, macadam would do quite well: Ald. Graham said that macadam roads could not be constructed along the street railway line for twenty cents a square yard. The cost would be much there. Ald. McCarthey favored pavement, It didn't matter to him what kind of pavement was selected, but 'paving should certainly be done in the business section. The city solicitor's letter stated that to pass the engineer's recommendation a two-thirds: majority of the members present would hive to vote on the affirmative, and that three-quarters of the council' would require to vote for, the hy-law. It was found that there were only fourteen members present, owing to Ald. Angrove's retirement. Hence the matter could mot be votedwipon. Ald. Nickle pointed out that he had opposed holding a special meeting for the street paving question; He wa ag it considered at the dast regular meet- ang of council, as it had already beew shelved since Sept. 28th. Some of the members wlio wanted the special meet- | ing were now absent. It wasn't fair for them to act thus. The delay that would come might mean that the by- ways of dealing with grafters. In | some places they are discouraged. ! «4% Ontario's Good Part.

Shrubb would go out all the way, and hefore ten miles had been coverea he would be hali a mile ahead of Long- hoat and miles ahead of Dorando and Hayes.
