The Toronto 0â€"59 Sentinel has here- tofore always been known as a supporter of the tory government, but its record is too much for it. end it refuses to defend it: incompetence, corruption and extrava. dance. In its last issue it says: “The public mounts of 1895 show that the “penditure of the Dominion government in: the ordinary services of the country fit you: muted to $38,000,000 ; and, g the revenue only totalled $34,000,000, 51580 “eminently s deficit of $4,000,- :m.

[To the Editor of This Posr l Sm,â€"In reading the very full report which you publish of the recent meeting of the Farmers' Institute, I notice that your reporter has omitted what I consider- ed one of the most important statements made by any of the speakers at any of the sessions. Mr. J. E. Knight stated during the discussion on the condition at schools in rural sections that the schools in his in- spectoraie are not so well taught tc-day as they were twenty-five years ago. This is a painful comment 62‘: the progress which we boast of in our institutions ct to-day. 0! the eleven teachers employed in the schools of Ops, seven, according to Mr. Knight, have not had more than two years’ experience. Mr. Knight is a gen- tleman who knows whereof he speaks, and I nresnme the state of things in Ops is a tan: indication of what prevails through- out Ontaric.

The more talent of a special kind that can he had, the better any body istor its presence. This is why the public fondly hopes that the new council, so rich in strong blood. will advance its interests. One sanitarian is employed to advise the board at a nomi- nal salary. It would make his work lighter, help the board, and protect the public, it at least two others eat as men» here in the board. At present there is not one member of the board who under- stands the science of sanitation.
