'RRY, MAY 3, 1594. es : The Hon. Mr. Dryden, Minister of Agriculture and representative of this Riding in the Provincial Legislature, kas just bren back amongst us seeking Te election. The electorate of South Ontario have been Loth generous and indulgent to their present representa- tive, secoring for him the sweets of office for the past fifteen years, and notwithstanding that hisparlinmentary votes have been detrimental to the best interests of the riding and 'he . province at large, the electors have borne with hin and flowed him to re- tain his seat through four successive parliaments: Mn Dryden has got favors enough from this riding and a change in the representation at this time would be in the iuterest of the hiding and the province at large. In Mr. Dryden's late appeal to the electors--a clipping of which we give Lelow--that gentleman shows an amazing ingratitude when Le gets in 3 V wood and refers to terrible things "certain elements of the other party" are saying against him, DRYDEN'S APPEAL, For all that to be done it was neces- sary that his constituency re-elect him, Hon. Mr. Dryden continued. - He had been offered other ridings, bat that did hot suit him. If his own people did not wish him to go back to continue his work he did not want to go. He was not blind to the fact that the most bitter and persistent opposition that a public man had ever received was be ing offered to him. Certain elements of the other party had wade up their winds that bis defeat must be managed. Why was that! He had not a bad re- cord ; the trouble was that he had done his work too well, and so word had come from Toronto that he must be beaten. He liked a fair, upstand- ing fight, but he despised the back-hand- ed, slanderous, insinuating methods of bis adversaries. They were going around whispering about him ; they were saying he was a scoundrel ; they were trying to spread the impression that he would not run again; they were saying that he went on a trip to England and took his wife with him, and that the country paid $1,000 for the trip ; the country had not paid for | » his wife's expenses, and his own had | #04 had the Government party con. tinued their opposition to so reasonable a demand it would have been outrageous and would have cost the party dearly. been $450. They said that he and the Becretary of the Shorthorn Association had been robbing the association for years, and many more such stories, such bedroom talk, were being cir culated about him. He asked the tellers of these tales to come out on the platform with him and work in the daylight ; if they had anything to say against his character let them come out in the open. But those were not the tactics to which they were resorting ; they were relying on a house-to-house canvass. Hon. Mr. Dryden then re- ferred briefly to some of the assertions made as to hiaconnection with the tuber- culosis scare, remarking that the people who knew him * would not credit him with wishing to do anything that was wrong. He accepted it as a compli- ment, he said ; they evidently thought that the game was worth haunting. He warned them not to yield to the , temptation to do anything wrong, but to stand up and make a fair and square fight. He would also warn them to watch their opponents, to see that they did nothing that was wrong. He must depend on them, for he would be need ed in other constituencies. He hoped that the elections would come on soon and would exhort them all to work. (Loud applause.) An Object Lesson for the Apostles of a County Poor House. Nineteen cents a day is the estimat- ed average cost for board and lodging of each inmate of the Poor House for the city of Toronto. This will amount to $69.35 per annum, but there is clothing to provide for the inmates, also a percentage for tear and wear of the building aud furniture and at least £1,500 a year as interest on the invest- ment. To this must be added the amounts paid for professional services und skilled help, which all combined will run the total cost up toa high figure, and will raise the average cost for cach inmate not less than §140 per annum, Tie ratepayers of the County of Ontario ssid Ly ao overwhelming majority of their ballots a couple of years ago, that they were opposed to the erection of a Poor House in this ~ have shut the mouths of the advocates of the imprisonment of our poor ones.

Early in the present session of the Dominion Government the Opposition members of the Public Accounts Com- mittee made a move to have evidence taken before the Committee on oath. The Government party opposed this and much dissatisfaction was created, Committee may Fire.

Thanks to the efforts of Mr. Mulock, M.P., the rank and file of the taxpay- ers of the Dominion have been shown how much they pay for the luxury of having a Governor-General, In the session of 1893 Mi. Mulock moved for a return showing how much Governor-Generals cost the taxpayers of the Dominion, The return was brought in during the present session and here follows some of the informa- tion which it supplies. Our Govervor-Genernls have cost the taxpayers of Cannda $2,881.917 from the date of Confederation up to 3rd of June, 1892, for this expensive laxury--Government House. Of this amount §1,215,666 went for his Excel- liency's salary, $145,903 traveling ex penses, $270,350 Governor-General's Secretary's office, $217,425 contin- gencies, $7,845 rent, $82,000 for the purchase of domain, $547,143 repairs, additions, ete, to Rideau Hall, $118, 853 for furniture, $94,349 garden and grounds, $151,371 for fuel and light ; or an average annual expenditure of $114,760. These are startling figures, especially when it is considered that Canada has no more need for a Governor-General than a wagon has for a fifth wheel. Neither Just Nor Generous.

A Canadian at present sojourning in England writes a private letter as fol- lows : "Friend John Dryden must be hearing pleuro-plieumonia on every concession and sideline. I should thiuk that every time he heard a cow bawl or a calf bellow there would be a horrible feeling within him of an end near at hand, If it Lecame generally known here that the Outario Govern- ment, through the agency of the Min- ister of Agriculture, was disseminating disease by selling sick calves such a howl would goup as would lead to | serious consequences to the Canadian | farmers' market. I presume the elec- tions will be early, and that Mowat and Frazer will retire from choice, and probably Digyden from necessity. And then Arthur Sturgis will step to the front as leader of the Opposition. " All elections here are run on pol- itical grounds, from the M.P. down to the poor law guardian. The two parties never meet on a common plat- form. One follows the other at a later date and wipes up the gore -- But there i8 no gore; there is no fight; no light-weight champions like Joe Tait.
