Prepa 'ations for the big civic holiday celebration are-already pretty well ad- vanced, and everyone is going right in to make it a day to be rememberedâ€"â€" and it will be just what the people want it to be, for they are making it them- selves. Sc dig in and do your share towards getting a slice of the $125 of prize money, or help somebody else to do it; and incidentally get a few flags to hang out and make the old town gay. Sec big bills.

Mâ€" Themsleilary Grab; GET READY FOR FENELON FALLS’ 6M0 HBLIDAY GELEBMTIQN, WEDllESDAY, AlldllST 9:71, munâ€"u-“ 0‘ ~-.â€" ~ «L‘V --\< ». ~_. grab is that it was conceived and car- ried out near the commencement of the life of a parliament, and that, it the parliament last its natural term, every M.'P. will receive $4.000â€" or is it 85. the increased indemnity will tempt bet.- tcr men into the political field; but we do n't: if it do. near]; all of them will be defeated. When an election is com- ing on, the people of u. constituency do not select as candidates the most able or honest men, but the ones most likely to win; and in manyâ€"perhaps in near- ly allâ€"constituencies there are men who would make desirable representatives, but who, if they ran for parliament, would stand no chance whatever of get- tingr elected. because they do not possess the qualifications which. though they should count. for nothing, count 'for ev- erything in the estimation of thought- less and narrow-minded voters. .Thc aspirants to a seat in parliament fought hard for it when it was worth only $1,- 000 a year. and still harder when it was increased 50 per cent; and, now that it is 552.500, the fight for it will be fiercer than ever. and we fear that. bri- bery and corruption will increase, des- pite the stringency of the law against them. What particularly disgusted us about the affair was the “round robin,” which shows that all the-signers were afraid to incur the odium that they felt would attach to any of them suspected of having taken 9. prominent part in the game of crab. The only thing the con- spirators had to fear was public opinion, and we are inclined to think that at .the next election a good manyof them will find that their fear was well ground- ed. They should all be “ fired " with- out mercy. Personals. ..;.-. 5.;' Rev. A. S. Dickinson on Sunday next.

The addition of $4,000 to the salary of the premier. whohas hitherto received only $8,000; is not thought un- reasonable, as there are numerous and heavy demands upon his purse, as well as various expenses incidental to his position, of which the general public know nothing. and a moderate increase of judges’ salaries is not objected to;, ibut all the. other, item are more or less ‘vigorcusly condemned. The Hamilton Spectator says: “We think the increase in, the in- demnity ofv'th'e. members was a. mis take, and that Mr. Borden missed an- otherchance for a good stroke of politiâ€" cal work when he agreed to the increase, and when he did not refuse to accept. the $37,000 offered to the leader of the opposition, Careful men have gone to parliament, and have takenl‘eome with them a large portion of the $1,500 in- demnity.
