Those who in the past have sneered at Orangeism as an organization of zealots controlled by an inner ring of office-seekers and place-men, can no longer cast reproach upon a body which has demonstrated itself to have princi- ples to which the members intend to sternly adhere. The Government has done everything that maney and power could do to pre- vent thu Grand Lodge expressing its opinions fully and clearly. The man supposed to be the most skilful and ex; perienced manipulator and organizer in the Dominion has led the Government forces after having drummed up every civil servant and place-man who by book or crook could gain admission to the Grand Lodge of this great Protest- ant Society. There is not the slightest doubt that their intention was to defeat Hon. N. C. Wallace, the Grand Master, and to prevent any resolutions being passed condemnatory oi the Government and those members of the Order who in Parliament prostituted their principles by either voting against the six months’ hoist of the remedial bill or indirectly endeavoring to coerce Manitoba, but in this, they have been signally defeated. Unfortunately for the Orange body. . it has been too often used by its leaders to obtain oflices, and unconsciously the Order was beginning to consider itself entitled to a certain number of Govern- ment situations, never thinking for u - moment that these positions were the price paid by a Government to prosti- tute an organization, the sincerity of the rank and file of which cannot be questioned. » Many years of this sort of thing re- sulted not only in damaging the repo- tation of the Orange society, but made it more difficult for anybody, however earnest, to change the conduct of the lenders. A large number of Orange- men are in the public service, and ma- ny of them got there by serving the Government without question of right or wrong. At the critical moment when a Reformer rose up, anxious to restore to the organization its original impulse, these Government hacks were summoned to prevent the much-needed reorganization. Admitting, as observ- ant people must, that the Orange body is a great power, for good or evil, Cuna- da is to be congratulated that the heel- ers were so wofully beaten at the session of Grand Lodge just concluded. The policy of Hon. Clarke Wallace was upheld in everything. The recre- ant members of Parliament were cen- sured, the Grand Master praised with- out stint for his conduct in Parliament, and he was re-elected without opposition amidst the greatest enthusiasm. The exposure of tnen who had betrayed their principles was complete and overwhelm- ing, and but one thing is to be regret- ted, and that is the rc-election of Mr. Birmingham to the Grand Secretary- ship. Mr. Birmingham is that genial type of a man who loves to work for a Gov- ernment, and is astute enough to do his work reasonably well,-even if a portion of his task is the betrayal of the princi- ples of the society which he professes to love. No doubt his re-election will be claimed by the Government party as a victory, while as a matter of fact it is not a matter of surprise that a man who knew every delegate present and has many personal friends, should have found sufficient followers who, heartily detesting his conduct politically, did not feel inclined to deprive him of his salary and position after having drub- bed him unmercifully in resolutions and debate. Mr. Birmingham has escaped by the skin of his teeth from being thrown out of oflice, and it is to be re gretted that any false idea of friendship should have prevented his official exter- mination. In large bodies, compromis- es are sometimes made for harmony's sake; but this compromise, we may rest assured, was a social and sentimental one, entirely irrespective of politics .or ea any weakening on remedial legislation. Enough was done and said in the in)- I IN VICTORIA COUNTY FOR Rum Paper and Picture Fumes -â€"--IS ATâ€" w. A. GOODWIN’S, Baker 'iBlock,Kent-st.,Lindsay. Artists’ Goods 3 Specialty.

Mr. St. Louie’s Margin. The Ottawa ‘vaernment shoal-l lu- disposed to give a favorable confident» tion to the recent requests of the ropi-o- sentatives of tho Trades and Labor Congress. for at times they can timl it in their hearts to be liberal in their allowance for wagesâ€"when they are sure the bulk of it will find its way imo the pockets of a favorite contractor, and thence cirouitously into the campaign fund. Just look at the wage bills with which Contractor St. Louis on the Our- ran bridge was credited. Unfortunat.» ly the workmen in the case got lirrlc benefit of the fancy prices. ’l‘hcir share of the “ orgy,” as the Mail and Empire happily termed it, was merely the resu- lntion hard-pan wages. They can un- derstand what a glorious maruin the contractor had on the following rates allowed him by the Govreumcnt :â€" 84 a day for foremen. $6 a day for foremen for night. or overtime. ‘ $8 a day for forcmen on Sundav. $12 a day for forcmen on Sunday ovurtimc. $5 a day for team. a $10 a day for team on Sunday. S2 50 a day for derrick. $3 75 a day for derrick for overtime. - $7 50 a day for derrick for overtime on Sunday. I St. Louis put on all the men he. wished and got paid for them. There were 2,000 men on the works at one time. There were many idle. No Government timekeepcr. No regular count. No Government foreman. No Government supervision. No GOvernment record of men or materials. No Government classification oflabor. Unskilled labor was paid for as skilled labor. There were no public tenders for timber. Inferior timber was supplied. Carters’ delivery tickets for lumber are missing. There were no checks as to quality of timber and lumber supplied. Large quantities are missing. New timber was burnt as firewood, carted away and stolen. Government teams had to haul him her that the contractor was to deliver. $29,896 was paid for $6,000 worth of stonecutting. $16,715 was paid for $3,000 worth of stone cutting. Stone was hauled by tenmsttvvntv miles along; the railway running,r from the quarry to the works. The Government was warned all along of the frauds, but allowed them to con. tiuue, and paid the bills as they calm: to. When the work was completed the Government issued a. com mission to investigate. Pending the investigation the Gov- crnmcut paid St. Louis a balance. of $105,000 for wages on an account that. the Chief Engineer discredited :zml Would not certify to. The commission unanimously reportnl incompetence, extravagance and fraud. The people's money was lost. No one has been held responsible. 0*.
