SULâ€" The elections now being in full blast and all parties having buckled on their armour for the tray. it would be well for the thinking part of the electors to thor- oughly consider the situation. It would appear that. we cannot get rid of the Maui- toba school question, which is the “ red herring” thrown across the track, and, although great principles are involved in it, yet in my estimation it does not occupy the first, nor yet the second, nor,I might say, the fifth place, in the great questions of the data. While opposed to coercion, which I think every man is away down in his heart, I hardly stop to consider it alongside of the other questions which are involved in the present contest. , in the first place, the lute Government and the present one under Sir Charles has been and is the most c -rrupt that can possibly be imngIned, and the outrages they have committed against all decency should relegate tln-m to everlasting obâ€" livion. Topper himself is the “high priest of corruption,” and the younger Tupper’s late escapztde in the Soulangcs Canal nfl'air must have been a high recommend to him for the position of Solicitor-General. Is he not eminently qualified to give legal advice on State q lestions, when he did not kuovv that he had no authority to order the payment to the contractor oflhéunreason- kept in stock as usual. and also a good “hie demand When he was out Of Omcfiflnd assortment of fly acts and baggy dusters when Sir John Thomson had refused it. What won’t the Toppers do? We are now the jury to give the verdict on them for all their corruption, and let us not be afraid to give it manfully. We have now before us three candidates for parliamentary honors. Two of them, Messrs. Hughes and Delamerc, go in for supporting the Topper Government in everything, except that Mr. Delamere will Oppose them on the Manitoba School bill ; .Fulls, containinga quarter of an acre. For he would not say that he would oppose ‘terms, etc, apply to them on anything else. Although a. very respectable gentleman, let us leave him seriously alone. If he supports all the other bad measures, which he assuredly will, among the rest the N. P., be is not wanted in the present crisis. Now as re- gards Sam Hughes, what honest claim has he to rc-election? None whatever. His course on the Remedial Bill has been so tortuous that no one will defend him on it except Mr. J. J. Power, who must be a pupil of Mr. Charles Fairbairn, who says he will not give his support to any man who will not pledge himself to vote every- thing, thick or thin, brought in by a Conservative Government. Sam’s votes on the Remedial Bill are the best pieces of jugglery that have been performed on the political Stage since Confederationâ€"first, voting against the six months’ hoist to save the Bill; second, voting against the second reading to prevent it becoming law, and, third, sitting up night after night fighting to get the Bill passed. Of course Sam lays great stress on the Trent Valley Canal; but let the question he ausvvered whether it is for the benefit of Canada or of the Conservative party it is being constructed? For the latter, most assuredly, as no Re- former can get a day’s work on it, nor is it in the least like what Mr. Haggart said its manner of construction was to be when he was at Fenclon Falls in February, 1895, when he made the declaration that not one day of foreign labor was to be performed on the work, and that it was so stipulated in the contract. Instead of that we have Italians, Finns, and probably Turks and Russians, and the young men of the county of Victoria cannot get a single day’s work work If they are not of the Conservative persuasion. Sam’s record as a journalist should have consigned him to everlasting forgetfulness': a self-convicted slandcrer ; a. traducer of almost every respectable man in any position not bestowed by himself or his party; a journal that“ stands alone in the distribution of filth.” The copies of the Warder that drew this scathing com- ment from Judge Rose were not fit to be read in any family. Surely we are in no danger of being misrepresented again by so unsavory an individual. And now a few words with regard to Mr. McLaughlin. In him the electors have a candidate of whom they may feel justly proud; one whose moral character has never had a. stain, whom no man ever dared say did a mean action; whose integ- rity is beyond suspicion; whose ability and sound judgment are unquestioned and whose political principles are of the very highest ideal of purity and advanced thought. Such is the man who is now seek- ing the sud‘rages of the electorate in behalf of the Reform cause, a man who would do honor to any constituency. The march of Reform is going on all over the country, and nowhere has it made greater strides than in North Victoria, where it has an honored son of its own in the field, who is sure of carrying the Reform banner to vic- tory, and to be one more to give assistance to Lauricrand Mowat to guide the destinies of our country in the ways of honesty and wisdom.
