DURHAM REVIEW HIE lllllilil) BENSIIS (l©Ullt The Conservative pres persist in as- serting that the sc.iealled census cir- culars wereiseucd to the census enu- merators, when all the evidence points to the contrary. When the charge was Brst made in the House that the census enumentors in Ontario were using a bogus schedule in order to make a political census, the Minister of Agri- culture, who then heard ot the matter for the first time, promised to make an immediate enquiry. and it he found the allegations true, hare the schedules destroyed at once. lie, accordingly, sent out to the 114 census eammission, ers in the Province of Ontario the lol- Iowing telegram : "The statement is made into that a schedule entitled miale residents, sixteen years of age and over,‘ has beentplaeed in the hands ot the enumezatois. It such a sched- ule has been emploved it is fraudulent. and you are required forthwith to in- struct. all t'nlllllel'tttul's in your census dlbt"lct to discontinue under pain of dismissal lrom other and prosecution and punishment under the Census Act. Any such scheduh-s in the pussvssiun of the ern1mvratot's, whether tilled or not, must be destroyed. and the delivery of them to any p--rson or persons, or the detention ot' them by enumerators, will be visited with the full penalty of the law. See sections 11 and 15 to 19, in- elusive, cftim Census Act. Wire mo to-morrow any information you may have regarding this matter ot the use of the reported schedule in your census district." Replies weru- received from evury one ofthe commissioners. Oat of 114 in the Province 102 stated that they had never seen nor heard of the sched- ule, and it was not in the hands ot the enumerators in their districts. Nine ot them reported that they had seen a document ot this nature, but that it was not being used by the enumerators. Three reported than few of the enum- craters in their districts had it in their possession, and in accordance with the instructions received, had taken im- mediate steps to have them destroyed. Not one of the replies indicated that the schedule was being made use of by the enumvrators. As amatter of tact no bogus census schedule was ever issued " all. The circulars which have been the cause of all this bluster were issued by the Liberal organization for the purpose ot obtaining information tor use in the revision of the voters lists. They were not sent to census commissoners or enumeratovs at all, but to the candi dates and officers ot riding associations. The tact that they were not mailed until a week after the enumerates bad connneneed work shows conclusively that there was no intention of making use ot the enumerators for party ad- vantage. Nointormation was asked for which could not be given by any party worker lamiliar with his polling subdivision. The circulars speak for themselves, and the instructions endors ed thereon are that "two Copies are to be prepared by the gentleman so cho sen tor each subdivision and sent to the Liberal candidate.‘ it IS only natural to suppose that the gentlemen chosen bv the ridmgottieers for this work would in some instances also be census enumerators. The action ol the Liberal organization in sending out these circulars, We are told, Wag only following out, what has been done by both political parties for years. Mi. Andrew Ingram, Consers vative M. P. for East Elgin, speaking in the [louse on the Wrth inst. regard- ing similar circulars sent out by the Conservative organization, is reported in llansard as toilows: “It wasnever intended that such a circular should be sent to the census enunierators. The circulars to which I refer were sent to a representative person in a Constituency, and be circulated them amongst thosewho were appointed as chairmen. l belieVe this has been the practice ot both political parties. What we complain of is that these circulars have been placed in the hands of the enumerators. That is striking below the belt ', it is not fair warfare. The Liberal party would be pertectly jastitied in using they, enum- erators it they saw tit later on tor the purpose of completing the voters' lists." The Conservative party have been beating the wind on this question. And yet the press will continue to argue on the false assumption that fraudulent census schedules were is. sued totheenumeratorsior party ad. vantage. ln the words of Mr. Ingram, "this is striking below the belt ; it is not fair warefa re.

Luke was passing the other day, the sound of hammering accross the street in the razing of the frame annex tothe old British Hotel property, brought up reminiscences of early Durham, and tlrtagentforthetime being was lost in the veteran journalist as he took a pencil and wrote down in splendid "copy" the following fragment of old time memories. We would like to know or hear from anyone who wit- nessed the burning ot that ef1igy.] It will be remembered that the old Free Church on Durham Street west was only partially Completed in the tall ot1856, and was used on one oc- easion " a public meeting by the late James Beatty, of the then Toronto Leader, when contesting the Saugeen Division, usa member of Legislative Councilor that day. Political senti. ment went up to fever heat. Hon. James Patton and flon John McMurrick were his opponents; and the adherents of both parties united on that evening in "doihg up" Mr. Beatty. The how- ling interruptions in the room were indescribable, bat when Mr. Beatty and his small body-guard of adherents got on the street they were hemmed in on all sides, and a. lite-like bug-a-too caricature of James Beatty was ro- duced, and a. blazing torch t'l'j'p?2i under the coat-tail of the effigy. A spurt in the air; then an explosion and a mass ot straw and burning rags illumincd the darkness many miles around. Up until the time of the Union of the Old and Free Church ot Scotland, the Auld Kirk had monthly service in St. Andrew's by Hey. Jno. Hay. whose other mission was in Kincardine to which he used to walk through the wilds of that time The Wesleyan Methodists also met here having at that period no place of worship of their own, and all this free from cost, even in the winter season Mr. Hunter freely supplying the necessary fuel foe heat- ing purposes, although he was an ar- dent Free Kirk man himself. Another relic ot the past is now being demolished. namely the frame attach- ment to the Brittsh Hotel Block, long and tamiliarly known as St. Andrew’s Hail.
