Editorial Note and Comment Mr. Kribs struck a "patriotic Key," Dr. Jessop said the government were in full retreat Mr, Lachner said their power otf speech was exhausted. Mr, Beatty, Leeds, thought it possible the head of the government would find himselt in the position of the lone hog in the Humber Piggery within a few mouths, Dr. Pyne, E. Toronto, said government silence showed that their stock of arguments were exhausted. Mr. McDiarmid, E. Elgin "poured forth a torrent of elequence," thoug‘h: the youngest member in the house, and called upon the eight men whose seats were in question to retire. Dr. Jamieson told of a S Grey barrister, trained in the office of the Attorney (General, who had accepted the debasâ€" ing constable dollar. Mr. Calder, S. Ontario, who defeated Mr. Dryden, claimed the goyernment were whistling aloud to keep their courage up till they It was a Conservative day out and out. Not a government speaker reâ€" plied to the many charges, general or specific, wild and woolly which were hurled at the government benches, whose members the Mail says "squirmed in their seats." The opposition were given full play to discover their debating _ strength, which is said to be superior to past years, and they took full advantage of it. got past the graveyard. Mr. Kidd, Carlton made a "yigorous onslaught‘ on the government. Mr. Hodgins, E. Middlesex, was disgusted with the acts of the government and its agents Mr. Calquhoun, Hamilton, and Mr. Little, Cardwell, fired away till after midnight and at one o‘clock the House adjourned. By this volume of talk, much of it intended no doubt for campaign material in byeâ€"elections, the Conserâ€" vatives hope to overthrow the governâ€" ment. The goyernment is quite able to give a reason for all their actions, and in regard to the constable vote they have honestly placed before the people their intention to have the vote of the constables allowed, if declured by the judges, invalid, by having another election with the matter made clear. "Mr. D. Jamieson, (Con., South (Grey) opened with a reference to the apologetic nature of the memorandum submitted to the members announcing the calling of the session. He had unâ€" derstood that the House was to be callâ€" ed together to pass postâ€"mertem legisâ€" lation. As a matter of tact it seemed to him that the legislation proposed was of the nature of an anteâ€"mortem deposition of a government which bad already lost a couple of limbs amputatâ€" ed by the popular vote, and the body was likely to tollow. (Applause ana laughter.) Had the Government shown reasonable diligence in making good their promises with regard to binder twine the farmers cf the provincal would have been saved thousands, or: perbaps hundreds ot thousands of dollars during the present season. He knew of specific cases in South Grey, and he could mention names if need be, where the constables fees had secured votes; where two responsible agents of the Goverament had gone at night to houses and handed men a dollar, telling them to turn out early, vote for the government, and stand outside all day. One of these was a barrister who had received his training in the office of the Attorney General. (Applause) The speaker went on to quote specific cases where the license commissioners had abused their power to coerce voters, (Applause.)" Reform should try to make political capital or secure political power over what is at best a technicality.

It was found that the parties were equally divided, havyâ€" ing 19 each, and the Lientâ€"Governor thereupon informed Premier Tarner that in his opinion the province had not shown confidence in the Turner administration, and that therefore he could not retain him as his advyiser. The opposition were in two factions led by Mr. Semlin and Jsseph Martin (fighting Joe) consequently the Lieutâ€" (GGovernor called upon Mr. Beayen to form a ministry. Mr. Beaven failed, and Mr. Semlin has been invited to try his luck. This has put Mr. Martin in a bad humor, and it is thought Mr. Semlin will also fail. The deadlock may necessitate another election.

Espr some cound and practical advico : few facts worthy of, consideraii the subjoot of advertising which mect with the indorsement of all have given this subject intolligent : Some way or other, it alway nens that the judicious advortisor ceeds, says The Express. Judicious means many things. Some men better never ady Some things better never be advort is Men who are not homest, who co : keep their promises, whose ad: ments mislead and whose stores co=. pointâ€"they had botter let adverti alone. Thero is a man in New York, a tw niture dealer, whosays that he nover c pects to sell the same man twice. H uses all means to get the best of the deal the first time, makes all the proiit he can on the one sale, becanse he knows that the buyer will never con.> backâ€"that he will discover the cheat Now, it wouldn‘t pay that man to advertise, and he knows it and doesn‘t advertise. _ But a fairly honest business, conduct ed by a man who keeps protty close to the letter of truth, it will always pay to advertise. Some business men are too careloss in their statements. They become so used to writing ‘‘biggest,"‘ ‘"grandest,"‘ "‘greatest,"‘ ‘‘best,"" that they can only think in superlatives. They mean to be honestâ€"probably are. They are merely careless, and fail ure is the price of carelessness in adver mmlybe not absolute failure, but ing very short of success. Every advertisement should have careâ€" ful consideratian. All the discrepancies should be eliminated, no careless stateâ€" ments allowed. |\ _â€"An underpaid fire department. | ge-p public buildings. ercrowded schools. Badly paved or unpaved streets. Insufficient police protection. If you don‘t take the time to attend to your advertising carefully, better cut it down. Cut off all the parasites, Cut off noveltiesâ€"programmes. Cut off the paper to whom you "give a hundred to get rid of it, to keep it quiet."‘ Cut of the paper that is too cheap to be good. A good advertisement in the best paâ€" per will do more good, more in proporâ€" tion to price, than anything efio you can do. A good advertisement of good goods in a good paper will always pay. Alâ€" She Has Some Ideas of Her Own on Loca! Women are every day taking more interest in the government of the places in which they live. They gained their first foothold in the school boards, and they have long looked with contemptuâ€" ous eyes at the male efforts to keep the streets clean. Mrs. Mary E. Mumford of Philadelphia says that good governâ€" ment is good housekeeping, and if womâ€" en are capable of one she thinks they ought to be intrusted to manage their share of the other. ‘‘The weakness underlying public adâ€" ministration,‘‘ Mrs. Mumford said in an address before the Woman‘s Health Protective association of Brooklyn, ‘"is the lack of business men, who cannot permit the public service to interfere with their private affairs. The first reqâ€" vuisite in a modern legislator is leisuro to study public affairs and acquaint himself with municipal and state needs. The only class that today can command this }eisure is the women of our houseâ€" holds. ‘‘The street cleaning department ought to have an ally in every houseâ€" keeper. _ Every district ought to have a woman supervisor, who should see that the streets are not littered with paper and fruit skins. I am well aware that this is the function of policemen, but as they are men thoy have no special fitâ€" ness for the work." ‘‘The ability shown here,‘‘ she said, ‘‘*should be kept up and always mainâ€" tained for the city‘s good. Women should have a larger share in the work of public education. Mothers are natural educators, and no reasonable person will controvert this position. But as yet they have little to do with education. **School boards should be composed of men and women of the highest abilâ€" ity, subject to no political dictations and responsible only to the city and a higher power." Mrs. Mumford reviewed the work of the New York Woman‘s Health Protectâ€" ive association and praised the results in legislation which it has accomplished. What Booming Has Done For Florida. The Ocala Capital thus trumpetrs the greatness of Florida: ‘‘Twenty years ago the people of Florida as a mass were the poorest in the Union. Their resources were unknown, their climate looked upon with dread, their condition obscure, their necks bent under the yoko of the carpetbagger. Today the people of Florida have more wealth per head than any state south of the Ohio river; her commerce is large and growing, her remotest regions being opened up to setâ€" tlement and development; her climate is known of all men to be balmy and wholesome and life sustaining; she is the Mecca of the weak and the Rome of the strong; she is free in her politics; she is educating her children; she is building sesports to rival the Atlantic :ii::l :: two centuries old; she is, in a broadcast stagnation, moving rapidly along the lines of moral and material and social progress." There are but two classes of people in the worldâ€"those who have done someâ€" thing and want their names kept out of the paper, and those who haven‘t done anything worth printing and want their names put in.â€"Atchison (Kan. ) (Globe.
