This is the name given to the pracâ€" tice in the United States when a change of administration takes place, of turnâ€" ing out all office holders down to the pottiest _ postmaster and replacing them by men of their own stripe of .polltics. The practice is a detestable the k"~"‘~»MCâ€"Aurcu government. ‘The Dafferâ€" in Post, Con , admits that Tupper‘s govâ€" ment will make a mistake if they are lavish in appointments. â€"The retiâ€"ing Govern doing ss much shamefrc to office, that the though on one that they have fighting conservative tat Aime in the future. â€" Bi Ontario Organizer, Moir of his, W.

The "Globe" referring to this intrigue says:â€"" But let (‘;uebec understand this onee for all: Mr. Laurier is the trusted, honored and wellâ€"beloved chicf of the Liberals of Ontario. Half of their rejoicing over the recent victory is because the noble Frenc‘hâ€"Canadian is to be Prime Minisâ€" ter of Canada. _ There is no rival to the throiiec. _ The Liberals of Ontario would rather go into outer darkness #or another generation than have any asurper reign in his stead, one wreath otftriumph torn from his brow, one touch of frost fall on his heart or one symptom of intrigue threaten his supâ€" remacy. â€"If the ballots with a cross beside the name are counted in North Middleâ€" sex, Mr. Ratz, Liberal, is elected by over 60 Majority.

With free coinage of silver, the silver dollar would be worth just the metal in it, and and a man owing $1000 could. pay it with say 8500 worth of silver. The workman, however, who would take his pay in silyer, would find that the so called dollar would purchase, about 50 cts. worth. A financial panic would ensue, but in the meantime, the ailver kings by whose selfish influence, the question is kept to the front, would bave made immense fortunes. } The ‘*Silver men" it would seem ‘ by advance reports aro in the majority and if they succeed in nominating a candidate of their own stripe, will sufâ€" fer almost certain defeat next Novemâ€" ber. If, however this free coinage uf Silyer idea should succeed, it will, on the testimony of the highest authOrit‘es bring a calamity on the United States, anrd Canada owing to proximity and other causes, will also be affected. The free coinage idea is explained thus : the gold dollar, gecording to the coinage laws of the United States, contains 23. 1 grains of pure go‘ld, while the silver dollar contains 374 4 grains of pure silver, that is the silver dollar contains about 16 times as much fine metal as the gold dollar. This is called the bimetallie ratio of 16 tu 1. It has been kept at this ratio by the U. 8. Government limiting the outpat, and borrowing gold to keey the spurâ€" ious silyer dollar at gmr. The:â€"evil ilJ that an ounce of gold is worth in actual value, not 16 but 31 times as much as an ounce of silvar and with free coinâ€" e with free coinage this disparity :rgonld be intensgified. * party Much the greatest event this week on this continent is the great deâ€" mocratic conyention in Cheago. The Republicans in their Convention have declared for a gold Standard and Proâ€" tection, and the delegates were pracâ€" tically unanimous in the choice of a candidate, finding in MeKinley a man who is "sound " on both issues. Not so with the Demoerats. Cleyeland is easily their strongest man with a second a long way off, but as Cleveland is a sound money man, and has had his two terms, he is objectionable to a large section of the party, who seem dominated with the hobby of the free coinage of silver. That a government in power for 18 years, making partizan appointments all that time, should attempt whulesals appointment after its defeat, is seandaâ€" lous, but not surprising when their reâ€" cord is considered. The friends of the dead Conservative Government point out that McKenzie‘s government on retiring from office, made appointments. If so, so much the worse for their reputation. The pracâ€" tice is wholly indefensible, and we are prepared to condemn the: practice wherever it is indulged in. tm This is the root from which the spoils system springs, for no good Governâ€" ment, having self respect can be exâ€" pecrved tolook with equanimity on such doings, but will, when acquiring powâ€" er apply the knife and eut off those who* have sprouted into official importance because their friends have been defeatâ€" ed! The danger is that the provocaâ€" tion may carry the pruning ton far,. and thus bring about by degrees the banetul system we fird in use aâ€" cross the line. What do we find? A ministry disâ€" credited by the people, not only re:â€" maining in office but actually pushing through scores of appointments to office of their friends and supporters, not beâ€" canse they are fit and proper persons, which they may be, but because they have rendered party support. In Canada we have had no glaring abuses of this sort to record, and it is sincerely to be hoped never will, but the course of events for the past two weeks has been such as to furnish a fear that we in Canada, may be forced to adopt some such principle, in self defence. one because itignoers to a great extent the question of fitness which should be the guiding principle in the filling of office. â€" Cleveland was the first presiâ€" dent for many years who dared to resist the practice, and he did so at the cost of losing many of his friends, and even he had to bend before the popular taste. it trom $1.50 to $2.00 In the Banner county of South Dakota, positions for the harvest assured to good men.
