LINDSAY, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 23. A LAST WORD The Post has a last word to offer to the electors of Victoria and ,Halibur- ton, and it desires to say it with no uncertain sound: DR. $0}? CAN WIN. ‘ But he can only win by the enthus- iastic determination of the electors to rid this riding of Sam Hughes and elect a creditable representative to the House of Commons. That Hughes is not a. credit to this riding is a fact admitted by many who will vote for him, as well as by thousands of others who will take advantage of the opportunity to enter their pro- test against such a man presuming to represent the intelligence and the industry of this riding. Many hither- to staunch supporters of Hughes and hundreds of men who would scorn to be called anything but a Conservat- ive will either refrain from voting or will vote directly against him, and all of these will rejoice to see him defeated. With such a strong and steadily growing feeling of antipathy to the Hughes domination of the Conservat- ive party and of the constituency, the duty of the hour should be. apâ€" parent to everyone in bringing about a rhange. Let everyone get busy. See that the organization for election day is complete. But few hours remain but wonders can be accomplished be- tween now and Monday. Have every arrangement made for the polling of each and every anti-Hughes vote. If an elector cannot get there alone arâ€" rangements should be made to get him to the polls, and no stone should be left unturned legitimately and honestly to poll every vote. The opportunity is here. Do not let it pass, but bend every energy to the accomplishment of that which will be heard of with relief by every self-respecting citizen in the riding, namely, the total eclipse of Sam Hughes. VICTORY IN SIGHT It is generally conceded that the Laurier Government will be sustain- ple of Ontario‘arc opposed ' to any such change, and from the accounts received from all over the Dominion, thisaeemstobethe view generally entertained. - , Sir Wilfrid Laurier has given the people many reasons why he is entitbd to further confidence, and Mr. Borden has failed to put before the people any mam reasons to inâ€" duce them to act differently. States- manship upon one side and scandal mongering on the other does not make the choice a very diflcult one. Canada will proceed on her prosper- up-to-date administration in the in- ‘terestsof allthepeOple, and the verdict on October 26, will be very pronounced upon this point. SAI’S LATEST â€"â€"â€"-â€"- One of the latest of Sam's election roorbachs has been issued, though it is an old dodge and has been utilized so often that it might be thought that those who are in Sam’s confi- dence would have advised him against it. The roorbach alluded to is a circu« lar alleged to be issued by Dr. Wil- son and the Liberals calling upon the Roman Catholics of the riding to vote against Sam Hughes on account of his so-called championship of Protestantism as against the church of Rome. . Of course none of these circulars are to be seen around Lindsay or Ops. They are being handled careâ€" fully and are shown confidentially among Protestants in the north- ern part of the riding as a reason why Protestants should continue in support of Sam Hughes. It is hardly necessary to say to any intelligent person that no such circular has been issued by the Lib- erals of this or any other county. The whole thing is of a piece with Hughes’ persistent misrepresentation and falsehood throughout the cam- paign, and will hardly deceive any elector of intelligenceâ€"and it is well known that electors nowadays are quite as intelligent and as capable of seeing a hole in a gate as any candi- date who may try to deceive them. In fact, it will occur to the ordin- ary individual that the issue of such a circular by the Liberals would be foolish. In the first place, it is not necessary to tell anyone by circular what a mountebank Sam Hughes is ; and in the second place it would be impossible even were a circular issu- ed by the Liberals to prevent it from falling into the hands of Hughes' supporters, and everybody with any sense would know the result. Indeed, it would be quite as foolish, though not so dastardly. as it is for Sam’s party to forge a document of this kind and surreptitiously circul- ate it among Orangemen as a genuine document. SBABBEY TREATED There has been a good deal of dis- cussion around town over the shabby manner in which Mr. A. D. Mallonis being treated by the Hughes machine. Mr. Mallon has unselfishly given of his time and talent to advocate the reâ€"election of Sam Hughes in various parts of the county, and his oratori- cal ability has been utilized to adj vance the cause of Col. Hughes in numerous places. It seems, however, from the actions of the managers of the Hughes cam- paign that though he is considered good enough to be put up at meet- ings at Omemee, oakwood and else- where, he is not good enough to speak at a Lindsay public meeting. It would seem to the man in the street that if he is good enough to speak at the points named, there is no good reason why he should be turned down so flatly in his home town, and considerable sympathy is felt for him among his numerous friends as well as dissatisfaction at the shabby treatment which is being meted out to him. 1 EDITORIAL NOTES.

List to the rattle in the throat of the ballot box. .â€" A drunken man was elected at Sam's meeting, but even the whiskey couldn't hide the wildness of Sam's statements from his mind. Even Sam's own supporters on the platform could not stand for the wildness of his statements and con- tradicted him quite. freely. Our barber informs us that the price of Conservative shaves after the 26th will be raised to twenty cents. Conservative faces will be so long. That alleged appeal to the Catho- lics to vote for Dr. Wilson, (issued by Sam Hughes), is being heartily laughed at in the north. They know Sam's little ways now. When Sam Hughes says he is worth $800,000, two questions arise : lst. Where did he get it 7 2nd. What single thing has he done to benefit Lindsay with it ? Outside of Sam Fox and the chair- man, there wasn’t a man of any standing in the community on Sam’s platform last evening. Never was man more deserted by the respect- able element of the town. A few scattered hand-claps from several boys scattered through the audience and decided contradictions from his own platform, greeted Sam Hughes’ utterances last evening. It is evident that his sun has set. Don't believe those stories tele- graphed from St. John about minis- ters condemning the Liberals from pulpits on Sunday. Nor the yarn about the St. John Globe demanding Pugsley’s resignation. They are Tory fakes. W. D. Macpherson, the .Toronto lawyer who spoke for Sam Hughes. last evening, is the man who was ac- cused by'Mr. A. W. Wright, one of the leading Conservative stumpers, of having betrayed the interests of the Conservative party in the Gamey in- vestigation. He is truly a fitting man to support Sam Hughes. COMMUNICATIONS We do not hold ourselves responsible for the opinions of our correspondents. PLACING THE ansrousmmrrv. (To the Editor of The Post) Sir,â€"The law has made provision for investigating the circumstance where violent death has occurred. and of placing the responsibility of the cause of death, if due to care- lessness or willful act. The tragic death of Percy Stubbs was so lightly regarded that the cor- oner deemed an inquest unnecessary, and we were informed by The Post that it was after ugly rumors were afloat regarding the way Stubbs had been handled by the police that the mayor called the police commis- sioners, who took action and ordered the investigation. The coroner's jury listened to the evidence, which went to prove that the unfortunate man was helplessly under the influence of liquorâ€"to use the expression of the oflcer who made the arrest, very drunk, and that a short time before, he was in the same condition. This seemed to sat- isfy the sixteen men of whom the jury was composed. No further on- quiry was thought \to be necessary, so long as the tragedy was directly .due’to liquor, the matter could rest, and so the sad occurrence has passed out of our minds as an incident of It' all depends on whether the vote minor importance. Let everyx'Liberal be on the fight- ing line now. . l The evidence of the police was suf- ficient proof that liquor had been supplied the deceased in forbidden (or unlawful) quantitiesâ€"and though this was the direct cause of the accident ings will brighten up any room and lend tone to the surroundings. .......lnteresting Nevis for Thrifty llovsekeepers....,,, Every housewife strives to make her ’ home as attractive and cheerful as Possible and it’s no easy matter for it requires excel lent taste and almost unlimited discrimin. ation.
