MISS SHEWEi L UPPER TOWN DURHAM. with emâ€" alâ€" the strongest links in the bonds of empire, and as in the case ot that other splendid achievement for Imperialism, penny postage, the lion‘s share in the work of forging that link may legitiâ€" mately be claimed by Canada A Deplorable Innovation. A yery undesirable feature which has been creeping into Canadian poliâ€" tiecs during the last year or two, is the manner in which charges are made against political opponents, and acâ€" cepted as true without the slightest attempt at grr:)ot _‘The fundamental principle of British justice, viz: that a man is inrocent until he is proved guilty, is apparently never thought ot, but so long as any paper or speaker can be found to make a charge, no matter how improbable or even outâ€" rageous, so long there can be tound the crowd who will repeat and echo the story, not as an allegation but as an undoubted fact. This exceedingly objectionable process is carried to the utmost limits of safety outside Parâ€" liament, but it is kept in check by a wholesome respect for the law of criminal libel. Within the walls of Parliament however, there is not this wholesome deterrent to curb the unâ€" bridled tongue, and unfortunately there are members whose self respect and sense of Parliamentary dignity does not appear sufficiently strong to cause them to control their partisan animosity. l The beneficial effects of the action of the Opposition in reference to the ,Alaskan boundary cannot be over | estimated. â€" There is no doubt that the idea existed at Washington that the people of the Dominion were not a unit in support of the Government policy, and it is useless to. deny that the senate in throwing out the Yukon Railway Bill last session ac the behest of American intriguers together with ’ the general attitude of the Opposition . in all matters having to do with the Administration of the Yukon gave ample and reasonable grounds for such a misconception. _ Sir Charles Tupper‘s action in thus frankly adâ€" mitting his error and throwing his influence unreservedly on the side of the Government, and the country, is calculated to greatly improve the position of the Dominion both with the Imperial authorities and with our opponents. _ Already a marked imâ€" provement appears to be manifesting itself at Washington, the latest deâ€" spatches intimating that the United States are preparing to recede from their untenable position thus supplyâ€" ing ample justification for Sir Wilfrid Laurier‘s conciliatory attitude, and his wise counsel that despite the agâ€" gravation Canada has experienced, we should yet persevere in the enâ€" deavor to settle the difficulty amicably. . The Pacitic Cable. | The present position of the Pacitic cable project is a veritable triumph for the Government, Canadian enterprise, determination and diplomacy having completely overcome difficulties whict at one time threatened to make shipâ€" wreck of the scheme. From first to last Canada has led, and since the present Government took up the negotiations they have been conducted with a tact and statesmanlike sagacity which in spite of every obstacle reâ€" cognized no such thing as the possibilâ€" ity of failure. The andaunted efforts ot Sir Wilfrid Laurier, Mr. Mulock and their colleagues have been rewarded, not only by a complete removal of opposition in Imperial circles in Lonâ€" don but also by the unanimous endorsâ€" ation of our own Parliament, members on both sides of the House vieing with each other in their snpport and conâ€" gratulations. ‘The allâ€"British Pacific cable when completed, will be one of Instances of this have been so numâ€" erous this session that anyone can readily recall a number. â€" Sir Hibbert Pupper‘s utterly baseless accusations against the Minister of the Interior and Commissioner Ogilvie commissioner Walsh, Gold Commissioner Fawcett, Crown§ Attorney Wade and a score beside. _ Opposition Whip Taylor‘s abominable slander of the Premier, Colonel Hughes‘ charge against his late apponent, Mr. McLaugblin of Lindsay, and many others of like nature, where the most absolute reâ€" tutation has been forthcoming, and the traducers themselves compelled to admit that their charges were unâ€" has the very unusual scene been witnessed of the leader of the opposition rising in his place and according a very hearty support to the policy of. the Government, and each time upon‘ questions of the first importance. This l would not be an unusual incident in% Old Country politics, but it occurs all | too seldom here, and when it does it must commend itself to all patriotic® citizens, who are able to look beyond a fleeting party advantage and conâ€". sider the country‘s weal. This has been a unique week in Parâ€" liament, for twice within four days *4 OO OTTAMA LATR. _ The end of the session searcely apâ€" pears nearer than it did a week ago although great progress has been made in the public business this week. The Commons are sitting early and late, six days a week, anfi very subâ€" stantial progress marks each day‘s business, but there is still more than one important item to be dealt with. ‘The supplementary estimates and the railway subsidies have not yet been touched, the Senate Reform and Proâ€" hibition resolutions have to be dealt with and it seeems scarcely dpusulblo that prorogation can be reached in less ‘*than two weeks, Mr. Editor, as there nas been no news from our vicinity tor a long time we thought we would try and pen a tew of the happenings. Haying is pretty well wound up for this season and a few have started harvesting. While there has been very little obstruction this last week or so the COpposition is not anxious to hurry the closing day, for they are working hard in the elections and privileges comâ€" mittee to make something out of the alleged crookedness in West Huron and Brockville. ‘The Committee has been at work fer a couple of weeks now without sccuring any yery startling developments, but the Opâ€" position is still working along bravely in the hope and expectation of stuinblâ€" ing oyer something geod in due course, The government is giving them every tacility in the way of securing witnessâ€" es etc., for it is as anxious to rectifty any wrong doing, if wrong doing there is, as the Opposision can possibly be. Mrs. McPhail who was away attendâ€" ing her niece‘s wedding in Burgoyne has returned home. Miss Annie McCreary of your town was the guest of Miss Crissie B. Mo Phail last week. While returning from the Garden Party, a blissful young couple, obliyiâ€" ous to their surroundings, allowed their equine ftriend all his own way. They were rudely recalled from castles in the air to common things by the rig coming in contact with a stone and nearly overturning it, after which more care was Cxercised. Quite a smart yank dressed in the noted suit of the boys in grey, struck town lately and tried to air his vanâ€" ity on one of our young men, by a tew witty drives (as he thought) but did not succeed as well as he expected and much less does he nced to expect to succeed should they happen to meet again. It is however not suprising that differences of opinion should exist when the writers are so hasy as to their facts for in another paragraph on the same subject it is stated editorâ€" lally that, ‘‘in less than a year the Government has run the indebtedness of the Province up to a million dollars", indebt." It is to be hoped that the affairs of Prince Edward Island are not as badly mixed as the ideas of the Ottawa Citizen. founded and that they had no sufficient ground upon which to base them. Take Your Choice. Explaining how it happened, is alâ€" ways a most interesting exercise after an election, and each side, victor and vanquished, will disl)lay considerable ingenuity thereat. It is ticklish work sometimes and should not be attempted by inexperienced hands. One essentâ€" ial in newspart er explanations is to see that the news and editorial columns agree, or at any rate that they do not disagree in the same column. This simple but necessiry precaution was not observed by the Ottawa Citizen in reference to the local byeâ€"elections in Prince Edward Island this week for their _ correspondent, wicing â€" from Charlottetown, states that the result is attributed to dissatisfaction among Canadian fishermen over the lobster and oyster regulations, a matter of departmental regulations upon which honest difference of opinion might easily exist, while right alongside of the despatch the paper states editorialâ€" ly that the election of the Conservative cundidate "was a protest against that extravagance which is affliicting the party ot reform and retrenchment throughout the Dominion."
