More Reforms. Now that the country has got rid forever of the Mackenzie finality Governmont--pretended Reformers with nothing to Reform--we 'may now look for many and important reforms. Of course the Mackenzie party wanted no more reforms ; the name had carried them into power and placed them on the Treasury benches, the fat of all the land was theirs, they had all that their hearts could wish--they, their sons and their daughters, their brothers and their cousins, their man-servants and their maid-servants, their oxen and their asses, all that were within | their gates were fattening 1 at the public crib and shouting no to however, more reform! there's nothing reform! The clectors, have taken a step fav in the right direction of reform by turning the bogus reformers from nower; but we will not let the reforms stophere, there are many, very many abuses calling loudly for reform. Look at our County assessments !are mot these much more than they ought to be, are therelnothing here calling for reform ? Is it reasonable that we in Reach, should be called upon to pay seventeen cents on every $100 assessed value for general County purposes, when nine cents on every $100 assessed value pays all the de- mands which the Township makes on us, including our roads, bridges, salaries, printing, postages, contin- The question may be asked in what gents and all other charges. direction reform may come in liere ? It may be introduced in various ways cht up | having two Deputy-Reeves could have three votes, or rather the of these municipalities should have the number of votes to which the particular manicipality is Reeves entitled. This would answer cvery purpose. Again, the matter of criminal justice would bear a thorough appli- cation of the pruning knife without tribute to its success, and prove a vast annual saving to the County, -- There are several other significant reductions which could easily be made without injuring in the least the efficiency of management. In the number of Parliamentary representatives a very large saving could be effected to the Province by reducing the number to one- half of what it now is-- Say that forty members of the Local IIouse be struck off, here would be a saving every year to the Province of at least $40,000 besides improving the legislation, shortening the sessions und largely curtailing other expenses. What under heaven fan eighty-six full grown men tind {to do in our Local louse ? lalf the number would be plenty, if not too many. Again we have the Dominion Parliament with no fewer than 206 members, each receiving $1,000 a session, or £206,000 for indemnity not including mileage, which will aggregate several thousands of dol- What can ungainly a crowd as two hunired ars. and six human beings possessing 1 8 It will take the members two or three more than their share of gas?

This reduction alone would save §130,000 a year to the Dominion in indemnity alone, | {while the saving in mileage and lother expenses would amount to {many thousands, These are some lof the more important reforms which | ow present themselves and crave the immediate attention of the rate- payers of every politicul shade and color. The noble fellows to whom the country is indebted for ridding it of the disgrace and misfortune of the Mackenzie rule are not going to | fold their hands now that they have golten thevictory. They have only taken a first step by removing the obstructionists ont of the way and making room for those who witl go on reforming until the numberless abuses which lurk in almost every department of our government have No Government will be safe, no matter heen swept from the land. Ly what name it is known who wil delay one day longer than is abso- lutely necessary for the introduction {and perfecting of such reforms as the | country requires.

When seeking election they raised their platform 50 high and surrounded it with such a halo of purity that angles might have trodden it without being soil- ed. The people were dazzled with the bright picture and rushed in their votes for Mackenzie and his following so that when the Iouse assembled Mackenzie was strong in numbers, strong in promises and strong in the favor and expectations of the people who naturally reason ed that if the performances of the Grit party were in any degree in- fluenced by their promises that the golden age was about to dawn on our own dear Canada. Every one waited patiently to sce the development of the golden age; and even the par- liamentary Opposition stood by in a certain degree of bewilderment giv ing the Mackenzie Government every possible "chance to bring for- ward and mature those glorious and exalted principles of clectorial purity, no coalitions, independence of parliament, rigid economy and sound legislation. rcely, however, had fruits ere it* became obvious «that the comfidence of the people hud [Deen shamefully betrayed, that the Mackenzie Government had obtained office under falze pretences, that every plank in theiv platform was rotten other went to pieces s0 soon as it tried. was The members of the Mackenzie Government had scarcely dig their political graves and every additional development of recreancy increased the excavation until their five years were compleie when the vos had them graves which they them dug were ready to receive and the electors shoved them inte those g | Lis oy oe . {No political retribution was ever | | more righteous, and it could scarcely On oceasion did the electors of this fair [be more decisive. former | no | | Dominion stand on so high ground | [as they do to-day. | | and decisive a proof of their know.

Why {it is the. utter rout and demoraliza- "1 tion of the Mackenzie Government and their entire following. Thero are but few instances on record in hich the band of the avenger has' 80 suddenly and righteously over- taken the guilty. The lesson isa vere but salutary one. Ilere we se had a government which a confiding {and cannot fail in producing results lof much advantage to the people of Canada, by showing to all rulers {that virtue it its own reward and [vice its own punishment, and that in | the future no man or set of men of the adage Vox Populi : Vox Dei pretending to be representatives of | i . + . I the people will again dare to insult their intelligence by creeping into power on false pretences. . The moral is " Political ITonesty tieal aspirants to power promise that which they haveneither the will nor capacity to perform. Joined to their Idols! The dreadful calamity which has a striking illustration of the will and power of a noble though iujured people ; the manifestation of a feel ing soaring infinitely higher than mere party bickerings or a play upon words; and it we are not greatly mistaken the indications of the great victory just secured point directly to a higher and more des- irable state of things in Canada's future politics than have ever been witnessed in the past.
