M. H. KEEFLER, disreputable and unscrupulous means Were taken by Widdifield and his sup‘ porters, in order to induce the electors to Vote for “good liberal” (?) principles. The contest was lost on false issues, and on cries which were a burning1r shame and YORK HERALD. RICHMOND HILL ; ONT Thercis very little satisfaction and no honor experienced in carrying an cleétion by dishonorable tactics. That means of such nature were employed at the late contest, by the victorious party, éannot be doubted. We see by the AuroraLibeml Conservative “that most disgrace to those who used them.” The Protestant horse Was trotted out on the One hand, and made to do duty quietly amongest the Orangemen, while the Catholics were appealed to, to vote for a supporter of Mowat and Fraser The Liberal Conservative says “large orange colored cards were distributed through the constituency with the following noble and elevating appeal, printed in large tyye:â€"- Such actions as these, to say the least of them, are most dishonorable and un- manly. Sectarian feeling should never be appealed to in a contest of this kind. There is no reason to suppose that the Orangean would suffer in any way ly the election of one or two Catholics; neither are there any valid reasons to be to be mentioned why Catholics would be injured it‘kone or more Orangemen were elected. The men who deliberately stir' up religious strife for the sake of carrying a paltry election contest, or in- deed,who do so for any reason whatever, are not Christians. Catholics should have no special recognition above Protes- tants, neither should Protestants have any special recognition or “rights” above Catholics. Both classes are loyal citi. zens, the one as ready and willing as the other to defend, if need be, their homes and country. There are men of ability in both classes, and the men should be elected on account of their ability, and not because they belong to either one denomination or the other. It were better, much better,_for North York to elect a Reformer than for the Conserva- tives to stoop to such nefarious practices as their opponents have done. If there is any dishonorable work to be done, in This card shows the spirit in which the campaign was conducted. If there is one spark of honorable feelingâ€"one vestige of' conscience remaining in the breast of the men who instigated this disgrace to manhood and honesty, they will have but small comfort over the victory which has been gained.” ORANGEMEN, ARISE! Will you allow Catholics to rule? an election contest,'let the Grits do itâ€" they are equal to the emergency. It is not a reproach to the Conservatives of North york to be beaten by such wea- pons. It is creditable to them, however, that they were willingr to lose the Bid ing before steeping to imitate such un Christian like, such barbarous and Out- lhwcd means of carrying on the battle. Many persons believe "in fighting the Devil with fire,” but in a case of this kind it is much better to have no trans- actions whatever with the Devil. Such actions as these always bring their own punishment in due time, and our Con- ser'v’ative friends of North York will find that they have lost nothing, while their opponents will learn to their bitter and lasting sorrow, that it may be easy to kindle fires of religious h‘a‘tred and ani- mosity, but no one can tell how or when they may be quenched; they will learn that such fires may suddenly turn and engulf these who thought they could play with them as they wished, who make them serve a certain purpose and then throw to one side to smother at leisure.

The Econo- mistman will find, on searching care- fully through the HERALD fiye for the last year or so, that up to a few weeks ago, he got all the credit that he could desire. But, just previous to the local elections, his misstatements and down- right false assertions in connection with politics had achieved such a wide reputation for the sheet that we were doubtful whether our readers would be- lieve a single item which appeared in this paper, credited to the Economist. In April we published an item regard- ing the Dunkin Act, taken from one of our exchanges, heartily endorsed by the Markham Economist, and duly credited to it. When a correspondent challenged the truthfulness of the item, did the Economist, come out and substantiate it ? No, he couldn’t do it. Like a par- rot,lwe could repeat another-persons ideas but could not back up his endorsation, or originate an effectual reply. The article was replied to however by the Em. Now, that the elections are over, we hope the Economist will cease abus. ing and misrepresenting one of the best men in its Riding. Hoping that it: will do so, we credit it this week with the Council, etc. It must substantiate its assertions though, when they are ques- tioned, if people are to have confidence in it.

Richmond Hill, June 9th, 1879. The great international boat race be- tween Wni.Elliott.of I’egswood, the champion of Great Britain,and Edward Hanlanpf Toronto, the American which is to be rowed over tthyne on the 16th inst,is attracting great interest,and never before was there so much betting:r done on a boatâ€"ruce,or such long odds offered as the Canadians are giving on their champion. Elliott’s hackers and adâ€" mirers readily accept all offers of £100 to £ 50 offered by Messrs,Ward, Davis, Renvrch, and Hanlan’s American ad- mirers. Mr ‘Ward, of Toronto recently laid £500 to L270,and another Canadi- an gentleman wagered L200 to 100 three times that Hanlan would win; John Higgins,the noted ’I'hames oarsman, has issued a challenge to row the winner of the Elliott Hanlan race, oxer the Tyne champion ship course.
