\ "desire of & oll is that much "comfort, ! \ ~All true Reformers by whatever designation known whether as Con- tives, Reformers or Liberals are pleased at the happy turn lately given to political matters in this yet to be glorious Dominion, all are sat- jnfied that tho reins of power have been snatched from theineompetent hands of the Mackenzie party and that a stop has been pdt to the official corruption, extravagance, waste and nepotism of the Mackenzie ring which was rapidly sinking tha country in ruin and disgrace; and while it will require mach caution and some time first to arrest the backward march und then to repair the injury done dur ing five years of wasteful incom petency, all are willing to assist in the wood work and wait with patience for the result. We do not include the Grits, the sore heads, in the "all" who are willing to nasist in bringing about the much needed improvements, they are adopting a contrary course and are throwing every possible obstacle in the way of the true reforms which are being inaugurated by the party in power. The fide and most obvious duty of the men in power wis the cutting down to a large extent the shame- fully extravagant expenditure of tuo party who had just Leen driven from power,and the first step to this desirable end was the dismjssal of numbers of those Grit supernnmer aries whom Mackenzie & Co. had packed in and around the Govern- m nt buildings wherever standing or sitting room could be found for them. Of course they had no datie- to perform and though the salaries were high what did it mutter so 1 ng as the country paid thew, pol- itical support was regarded as a sufficient equivalent for the fat liv ings. The new rulers had to expel crowds of supernumeraries in order to recure breathing room in the De- partments while the saving of their extravagant salaried was urgently emanded by the financial neces- sities of the country. One would suppose thai "the united voice of the people would appland so commend able a step, but sach is by no means the case, for the Sorelleads toa man Jed by the Globe have never ceased howling since the expulsions began and they are doing their utmost to make those who are illy enough to listen to them, believe that the ac- tion of the Government in this matter is only the outcome of party feelings and that the supernumerar- ies would have been retained in office had they not been Grits. That the charge is utterly worthles, must be obvious to all who know that the enpernumeraries are all Grits and no political bias can be shown in their dismissal. With the exception, however, of tie few Sore Heads, the sympathy of the taxpayers is with ihe Government in this important wtep in the way of retrenchment and while much more is looked for, this is regarded as an important step in the right direction. The Sore Heads are also trying to make themselves ridiculou:ly dis- agreeable in their feigned anxiety for the introduction of the new tariff, notwithstanding that they know well that they sre talking the greatest nonsense, they know that the matter of tariff must necessarily be handled with caution and in any case requive some time to bring about the change. The same ele- ment which secured the election of men inpower will see to it that ze uae in the interest is appreciated ns it ought to blie acknowledgement prosperity and happiness may be eljoyed by them all, and that their residence amongst us may be muatu- ally advantageous, -- Arrived at Head-Quarters.
