J W i » . it the promise that if elected he'l will try to get the government to refund part of those bon ‘ uses to the municipalities. That the refund should .be secured is just as desirable as Dr. McKay’s insinuation that it will be, is groundless. We should be glad to see such-a favor extended to the North and would do all in our power to secure it, but it will not be; and for a man to the support of that riding on at the polls. . . The thing is absurd ; and Dr. McKay knows that it :s absurd. He knows moreover that it is practically impos- fi sible, for there are a dozen municipalities in difl'erent parts of the country that are in similar circumstances, and that to grant the request in one case would involve the govern- ment in the moral ob igation to grant it in allâ€"a propOSI- tiOn that even Dr. McKay in the straits of a hopeless cam paign, will not endorse. So why does he reiterate this folly P . But there is better proof that it cannot be done. It is no less than the fact that it has been tried With the most efiective agencies that this country could command and tried in vain. And Dr. McKay knows that. He knows that in 1884 both local and federal governments were memorialized to make this grant. The first men to take the matter up were Col. Deacon, then reeve of Lindsay, Mr. lohn McSweyn and the late Squire McDonnell. These gentlemen brought it before the county council when Mr. Thos. Smithson was warden. The counCil favored the idea ; a memorial was at once addressed to the Ontario legislature; it set forth the demand and the grounds on which it was made It declared that since this railway penetrated undeveloped lands it was really a “colonization” road and entitled to the help that such roads received from the legislature Though coming from such a responsible and influential body, the request was definitely refused. Dr. McKay knows that; he knows that it is a dead issue, and yet with its corpse he strives to delude the Nmthmen. But that is not the woxst In this attempt the doctor comes perilously near convicting himself of humbug. He sat in the local legislature as a representative of West Victoria He knew how heavily these bonuses rested on the people of his county ; he knew the efforts that county had made in their behalf and yet during the whole eight years he never made the slightest efi'ort to get them re- dress. When he was in office and they in need, he did nothing to help them Now, when he wants their help to get into office again, he is profuse in his promise to do the very thing he then ignored. His promise is absurd; its motive plain. S i # THE PREFERENCE FOLLY. The more the preferential tariflr of the Liberals is understood, the more it stands condemned as a folly quite In harmony with the traditions of that party, and with the ability for government it has always displayed. That tariff makes a reduction of 33 per cent. on the duty on British goods coming into Canada. Under COn. servative rule the revenue from British imports ran as high as ten millions. The reduction means a loss of a third of that sum or mO'e than three millions. And that loss will occur. Mr. Mulock said the increased imports would make up the deficiency. They will not. A v-ry good proof oi that is that they have not. Although the prefer- ence was only 25 per cent. until this year, the revenue fell to a trifle over seven millions, and so far was Mr. Mulock from being correct in both his opinions that he was wrong in both ; for not only has the revenue decreased but the amount of goods imported has fallen off too. Mr. Pater son argued that after all the people were no worse off by because the lower tariff gave them the the loss of revenue, goods cheaper. Even that is untrue. Mr. J D. Flavelle, the largest importer of British goods in this county, said distinctly at Gertley’s that the British exporter simply puts his price up because he has a lower duty, and pockets the profits. That he does is clear enough to Canadians. They get their woollen clothes or other British imports no cheaper than before. But they have to pay the three millions in lost revenue that goes into the coffers of your Englishman. It is said Mr. Laurier touched the British heart by his preference. Very likely; but he certainly “touched” the Canadian pocket. The Liberals say the preference proves their loyalty to Britain. It would be as well to have a party in power whose loyalty did not require such expensive confirmation. The preference is foolish ________________________â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"-â€"â€"_AA.

Not by any means. It did not approach it; and then it seems to have escaped the Post man that the heartiest cheers at the Paterson meeting were for Sir Charles. But for those, that meeting would have been almost as flat as the Mulock gathering. Three cheers for the Opposition leader in the midst of a Reform minister’s meeting, is a novelty in Canadiun poli- tics and is a clear indication of the popular sentiment. IN TUESDAY'nlght’S Post an editorial appeared in which Mr. Geo. Payne of Ops was reported as telling what a large amount of money he had been able to put into improvements since the Liberals came into power. It moreover explained that Mr. Payne is related to Mr. ]. H. Sootheran. The fact is Mr Payne is related to Mr. Sooth- eran by marriage and the overplus cash of which he boasts came to him by a legacy received two or three years ago. The truth would be better for both Mr. Payne and the Post. THE CATHOLIC Freeman of Kingston has asserted that Mr. McHugh is being attacked in this riding because of his religion. On Monday night at Bobcaygeon Mr. McHugh declared that Dr. V rooman had made such at- tacks on him. When ex-warden Lithgow challenged him to name tae meeting at which the doctor did so he climbed down by saying it was in private conversation. It looks as though Mr. McHugh is departing from the high standards that it was hoped would mark this campaign to its end. When Mr. McHugh says he is being assailed because of his religion we believe he is making an unworthy attempt to win sympathy 0.1 what he knows is a very sensitive point. It is a pity he should have been the first to brincr this question of religion into the public discussions of the cam- paign. We hope Mr McHugTi does not value a seat in parliament so highly that he will create sectarian strife to get it. For the credit of the riding in the eyes of outsiders we are glad to say that neither in these columns nor by any public speaker except Mr. McHugh has the question of religion been raised. It has no force at all with us; we hold one man’s creed as honorab'e as another’s and beg our readers to vote on the national issues without ref;rence to the religion of either candidate. .â€"__â€"___________________________ by put on record our unqualified con- demnation of the act of the governâ€" ment, in connection with our respec- ending Saturday night tive manufactures, and declare that. the government of the day is unwor- Little Britainâ€"Thursday, Nov. lat. flue-urn”. . |.
