BAY C'HA LE URB RAIL- WA Y PL UNDERING. The evidence taken before the senate investigating committee during the past week has shown clearly that Mr. Pacend, editor of L’Electeur of Quebec and a close friend of Mr. Mercier, received from Mr. C. N. Armstrong the sum of $100,000 in connection with the payment of the pro- vincial subsidy to the Bale des Chaleurs railway. This project received heavy to from the Dominion government .rl afterwards a substantial bonus from l'ncle Thomas Mc‘ he admitted before the committee. disgraceful and scandalous transac- eome the new scandal as it may draw at- tention away from the scandal revelations that are likely to result in disaster to the Dominion government. The senate committee should thoroughly investigate the jobbery and corruption in connection with this railway from its inception. Pacaud and his confederates should be punished for their frauds. But justice should not stop there. The Mc- Greevy frauds in the early history of this undertaking should be searchingly investi- gated and those found guilty of wrong- doing there should be punished with equal severity. There should not be one law for the liberal “boodler” and another for the tory “boodler.” But the tory organs and politicians at Ottawa are unfortunate- ly taking a wholly dlfl'erent line of actionâ€" a line the inconsistency and injustice of which will be seen at once and fully ap- preciated by the public. They say in effect that there is to be one law for Pacaud, but another law for Lan- gevin, McGreovy, Chapleau, Haggart and Dewdney. They demand full investiga- tion of Pacaud’s doings; but they have thrown every possible obstruction in the way of the efi'orts to investigate the charges against their colleagues and the McGreevy combine. The case against Sir Hector Lanzevin and “Uncle Thomas” in the Quebec and Esquimault contracts was too strong and clear to warrant a determined resort to the policy of obstruction; but in the cases of Messrs. Chapleeu andHaggart the tactics of obstruc- tion have been employed with character- istic energy and some degree of success for the time being. The Haggai-t affair is odious and disreputable, and Sir John Thompson if he is to live up to hisblue china should turn out his colleague. The “afiiire Chapleau” shows that the eloquent “kicker’s” department is saturated wfllh corruption. The case is so strong that Mr. Chapleeu and his friends muster in full force on the committee and exhaust the tactic! of obstruction to prevent in- vestigation. and, when necessary, call upon their partisan majority to vote down the enquiry. Their tactics have disgust- edeoetronzetoryasMr.H.

We believe the people will insist upon an equal administration of justiceâ€" an equally severe punishment of all con- cerned in these frauds. Review. We do all.an But the Empire wants to hang ’ THE “ AFFAIRE CHAPLM 0.5 The ministerialists at Ottawa are begin- ning to perceive that they have made a mistake in employing half a dozen minis- ters of the crown and their partisan fol- lowing to obstruct by their power the investigation of Mr. Ohapleau’s management of his department. Mr. Lister, who has the investigation in charge, is determined to press every means in it, and mittee the case will be brought before the house. A particularly flagrant and dis- creditable instance of the obetructivenese is fumiehed by the refusal of Mr. Chap- leau to permit the production of a corrupt agreement between Paper 00. and the proprietors of La Presse, Mr. Chapleau'e organ in Montreal, by which payments were to be made on a number of notes lose, out of the profits of a contract with the printing bureau in Mr. department. v‘lous meeting of the committee consented to the production this was “in a moment of weakness," and Mr. Ohaplesu determined to prevent its publication. The document has. however, been given out as follows:â€" the New England endorsed by Mr. Chap- Chapleau's Mr. Foster had at a pre- of the document, but '1‘ l m tm concern: .‘d after they had quarrelled over the I‘llfiefllarel‘ giggle: to if: I: rgugcgilzlmg‘fg‘lfl‘s: spoils a new company had to be fenced. diseased).

Mr. Chapleau’s notoriety as a boodler in Quebec provincial affairs, as well as in the larger Dominion field, warrants the reform members in pressing for a thorough investigation, and the people should back them up. The revelations before the committee Wednesday were amazing. It was “a black day” for Mr. Chapleau and the leading officials of his bureau. They admitted receiving heavy bribes, and though Mr. Chapleau tried his utmost to prevent investigation and to shield them they were compelled to answer. Further charges are made and investigations held, and the Mail’s correspondent says the u air is now so thick with scandals that it H is possible to split it with an axe. ’ Turn the rascals out. # JESSE WELD ON. Full of years, strong in the faith, he- loved and respected by all, the sturdy and venerated Jesse Weldon of Oakwood, has been gathered to his fathers. A good citizen, a kind neighbor, the head of as numerous, respected and influential family, a genuine and sincere Christian, a father in the church, an exemplar in every capacity of life Jesse Weldon leaves a name precious to the community in which he lived, and which will live after him as a noble monument. He was a staunch and sturdy reformer, and always stood up for the right and con- demned the wrong. He was one of those men whose strong common sense and equally strong moral sense always exerted a beneficial influence upon the community. Although he never was an obtrusive man on sunsets the reconstruction of the Dominion cabinet as the alloying WW piratplisesl : adamant: ' 2:32332111 ‘Ill!l 23 -- . i llavaeunnnnnn i3' 1;. i " fix ““91""an : ‘ ‘1 11M”?! vrseeeun .g.‘ 1 justice ed illegal fishing at Mlnden.

Thg‘feneral public will not approve such ad nlstratlon and will, we are confident. vigorously condemn ltâ€""snow it under," intact. The Mail says, the complete list of Mr. J. R. Arnoldi’s “perquisites," so far as known, is as follows:- One pipe. One watch chain. One acht. 'l‘wo ronze dogs. One ring. One horse. One dining-table. One set tandem harness. One gold penoase. Mr. Arnoldl made hay while the sun shone. Had the exposure not taken place he would in the course of a few years have become the possessor of a large amount of valuable personal property. The tor-y Hamilton Spectator advances this very “powerful" and very "fetching" argument against the pulpit denunciations of the scandalous corruptions at Ottawa:â€" ‘.Why should the preachers pitch into the corrupt pollticiansl When a preacher goes astrayâ€"which unfortunately is too often the caseâ€"or when a member of a a congregation becomes corrupt. the preachers do not thunder against the culprit; they make every effort to hush the matter u and keep it ulet. Why, then. should t e grits ex ct t e preachers to denounce a corrupt po iticianf‘ There is a siory here about a mote and a beam that seems to fit here. The Montreal Witness pertinently re- marks that “the shamelessly partisan course of the leading ministerial news- paper organs in regard to the exposures of the corruption of the Ottawa and Quebec governments by the various committees of the Dominion parliament is contemptible in the extreme. and causes one to wonder whether such subsidised advocates do not excite the disgust even of their own political partisans.” We can tcetlfy that it does excite the disgust of many conser- vevlves who are desirous of uttlng a step to the boodling and corru on rampant at Ottawa,cveni they have aid in “turning the rascals out.” Mr. Cochraue, the fury M.P. for East Northumberland, was yesterday formally charged in the house, by Mr. M. C. Cam- eron, M.P., with trafficking in government offices. He is charged with having sold a lighthouse appointment for 8200, and the position of bridge tender to the swing bridge over the Murray canal and a life lease of certain lands to a third person at a nominal rent, with a condition that if the office shall be lost the lease shall cease. and with having trafficked in other offices. The charge is to be investigated by a special committee. Mr Cochrane was 9. ve fluent speaker in South Victoria in the not two Dominion elections. Turn the rascals out. The Montreal Star says, "the organs of of the Dominion government, shocked beyond expression at finding the party in power at Quebec to include as many and as big rascals as the party in power at Ottawa, are urging Lieutenant-Governor Angers to demand satisfactory explanations from Mr. Mercler on pain of instant dismissal. The course indicated is a highly proper one to follow in such cases, and we trust well commend itself not onlvto Lieutenant- Governor Angers but also to his cxcellcncy the governor general, who might can; properly demand explanation from has ministers also on pain of instant dis. missat. Of course such a proceeding would be open to the objection that his excellency in asking for explanations would be “fishing for evidence." Lord Stanley should certainly take action in the line suggested by the Star. then Lieutenant- Governor Angers could follow his example. â€"A London cable says: The St. Peters- burg agent of Renter's telegram company has been furnished with an ‘dneplred denial" of the report that a secret treaty hes been concluded between Russia and France. In this denial it is declared that either Admiral Gervale nor any other reach or Russian representative has signed or concluded verbally any conven- tion between France and Russia. It is also asserted that no conferences have been held on the subject, and the well-known rappro- chement between Russia and France does not date from the present time but was oc- casioned long “to by international circum- stances rather than b spontaneous desire of the powers themee ves, and it has since . continued to grow closer.
