It is only natural that after an elec- tion the members and organs of the de- feated party should try to let themselves down as easily as possible, and try to prove that but for this, that and the other thing the result would have been very difi'erent from what it was. In the attempt a good deal of ingenuity is often exercised, and veracity is not no- frequently tampered with ; but we doubt whether history atfords a parallel to the gross misrepresentation and deliberate mendacity of which the Mail and Em~ pire has been guilty since the 23rd of June. In a recent issue it said: ” The slump has taken place in Quebec. There have been changes in other provinces, but it is Quebec that has turned the scale. Had that prov- ince divided its representaticn half and half between parties the Conservatives would have had». fair majority to work upon. As it. is the Liberal strength is drawn entirely from Quebec. The party indeed is a Quebec party. Two influ- ences, of a very serious character, have was raised by the leader of the Oppo- sition against a premier who was British and Protestant. The other was the de- mand for coercive legislation as regards Manitoba. The Remedial bill? of last session was objected to by the Liberals of Quebec, Mr. Laurier at their head, not so much because it dealt with the school question, but because in dealing with that question coercion was not applied to the province as siifliy as the Liberals desired, or to the people with that energy that the Liberals seem to think necessary. The Liberal objection to it was, first, that it did not endow the separate schools with the money of the province; and, secondly, that it did not compel Roman Catholics to use such schools, whether they wished to or not. It has been represented in Quebec that an English and Protestant premier is indisposed toapply the lush, and that Mr. Laurier, a French Catholic and a Roman Catholic, would be more likely to do so. The view of the bishops has been that a moderate measure would meet the case. For this reason these dignitaries favored” the Government project. The Liberals, however, de- clared themselves to be more Catholic than the bishops, and with a racial and religious cry, in imitation of that which Mercier raised, they have carried the people away.” The inference intended to be drawn from the nbove‘is that the compact be- tween the Bishops and Tupper (believed in by everbody and resented: by both Protestants and Catholics) was bogus and only meant to hide a genuine agree- ment between the Bishops and Mr. Lauricr, but the Mail and: Einpire must surely think its readers are downright fools if it expects them to swallow any such flapdoodlc. Will anybody credit the insinuationâ€"so strong that it might as well have been an open assertionâ€"- that the mandement, the sermons against Laurier and the predictions of the parish priests as to what would happen to the members of their congre gations who voted for Liberal candi- dates were all make-belief; or, rather, that they meant the direct opposite of what they appeared to mean? The tory organ must have been desperately hard up for something to say when it decided upon the course it is now fol- lowing; but the absurdity and untruth- fulness of its statements are so self- evident that they can deceive none but a few of the most ignorant and bigoted of those who look to it for information. Probable Protests. When a general election results, (13 the last one did, in a great victory for one of the contending parties, there is not as much likelihood of protests as when the winning of two or three seats may turn the balance of power; but it is the bounden duty of all opponents of , bribery and corruption to protest against l such practices as were undoubtedly paragraph from last week's issue: “ The reelection of the present mem- her for North Victoria could not have been accomplished by fair or straight- forward menns in the present election. Knowing this to be the case, every measure that could be devised by strat- agem and fraud was brought to bear on the occasion; toundationlesa fubrica~ tions, trickery of all kinds, bribery of the most barefaced description and per jury were resorted to. under the wire- pulling of the professionals who swarmed all over the constituency. During the last few days of the campaign there were men busily employed throughout the riding wherever victims could be found, buying up votes for cash and promises of future advantages. The for- mer commodity was paid on the nail. but the defeat of the government will prevent the realization of the latterâ€"if they were ever intended to be redeemed, which we very much doubt; but we hope the courts will ventilate and pun- ish both the authors and their liencli men for their nefarious conduct." , Barr’s Latest Success. The young gentleman alluded to in last S-iturday’s Globe is the second Sun of the Lindsay Post and now registrar of the county of Victoria :~â€"â€" “It will be seen in the list of ap- pointments to fellowships at the Univer- sity of Toronto given in to day’s Globe that Mr. A. F. Barr, B. A., the well. known captain of the Varsity Rugby team. has been awarded one of the Mac- kenzie fellowships in the department of political science. This appointment will be regarded by University men as well merited. Mr. Barr’s success has not been confined to the field of athletics, though during his course he did more perhaps than any other man to spread the fame of the University in this con- nection. It was under him that the championship of Canada in Rugby loot- ball was secured, and his place on the lacrosse and hockey teams has always been a foremost one. It was the gen- eral excellence of his stand in the class lists. that. more than anything else. won him the appointment. Throughout the whole of his under-graduate course, he held a high place in the honor list and received his degree this spring with first-class honors in the department in which the fellowship has been awarded. The University has done well to recog- nize in this manner the services and ability of one of her ublest graduates. As Mr. Barr intends to follow an no- :idemiccarcer, the opportunity afforded him. by his alma mater will doubtless be used to the fullest advantage." Dreadfully‘ Scalded. Joseph Chabot, the night watchman in Mr. John A. Ellis's will on the shore of Cameron lake, met with an exceed- ingly painful accident before daylight on the 16th ult. ; but we heard no word of it until last week's Gazettes were all printed. It appears that Mr. Chahot and another Frenchman, named San- picrre, took some liquor into the mill and imbibed so freely that propany neither of them knew very well what he was doing. The engine that drives the machinery is supplied with steam from two boilers, each of which is provided with a “ blow off” pipe that passes in a downward direction through the rear wall of the boiler. room for a distance of three or- four feet and termintrtes about eighteen inches from the ground. Some time during the night Chabot told Sanpierre to blow off one of the boilers and said: that he- would go out and see that the pipe worked all right. He left the room, went around to the hack of the building and either fell or laid down directly opposite the and of the pipe, receiving the fqu force of the discharge of steam that almo<t im- mediately followed. As Chabot had worked all day in the mill, his wife had gone there to enable him to sleep part of the night. and she and Sanpierre helped himhome, and next. morning Dr. Gra- ham was sent for to attend him and found him so dreadfully injured that at first he almost despaired of saving his life.
