Since Mr. Mowat has been sustained at the polls by such a large majorin of nearly one-third of the House he can certainly, ifhc thinks proper, bid dew fiance to all encroachnicnts from any religious bodv. The scripture selections can be ordered to be replaced by the Bible to be read in the Public and High Schools. The publishing of school books can be made to be more in the iuLeresIs ol the people than favored publishers.

Like the Pharisee of old who took such credit to himself that he was not as other men but rather superior and better in every way, so our Reform friends take to themselves all the credit, for being: possessed of every virtue, onlv unfortunately for them history does not hear them out in their pretensions.

Mr. Mowat‘s Government is in no sense better now than it was when Major Gray contested the seat with Mr. \Villiam Patterson all hands will admit, except, perhaps, those who are so blinded by party zeal as not to be able to see farther than their noses.

That Dr. Gilmour‘s abilities are not superior to Dr. Ot'r's or very, very brilâ€" liant, those who have heard both hold forth at public meetings will well under- stand. Socially or morally. the Reform candidate is not superior to his opponent will be readily agreed to by fairâ€"minded men. Some may, and will ask.why then should the Conservative candidate have suffered defeat? That is a question we do not feel called upon to give an opinion on publicly, although holding our private ideas upon the subject. In looking back over the returns of the previous local election we find 3,075 votes were polled, whilst at the present election 2,897 votes were cast. The franchise, however. has since been altered and the constituency gerrymandered since the election in 1883. putting out, Binltmnnrl Will. Parkdale, and Brockton. These three places numbered 644 votes polled at that time, and gave Major Gray a majority over Mr. William Patterson ot' 52 votes. We also find that Woodbridge gave Gray 59 votes as against 37 for Dr. Orr ; Weston gave Gray 26, when for Orr it only gave 8; York gave Gray 83 majority, but this time it reversed sides. and gave Gil- moura majority of' 56. On the other hand, W. Patterson had a majority in Vaughan of 173 which was reduced by Dr. Orr to 80 for Gilmnur; but worst of un is the difierence in Erobicoke which givesa majority of 90 for Gilmour as against 16 for Mr William Paltersnn.

In South Wellington Mr. Guthrie's large majority was a surprise even to his most sanguine friends. Conservaâ€" tives did not look with any degree of confidence for victory, but certainly they did not expect defeat so overâ€" whelming. The city vote was a crushâ€" ing surprise. The extreme antiâ€"Scott Act party went for Mr. Guthrie almost to a man, while the bulk of the temper- ance vote declared for the same gentle- man. Of the two parties we must conâ€" test; the liquor men were the more conâ€" sistent. They opposed Mr. Raymond purely on personal grounds, and because} of his work in the Scott Act campaign. ‘ But the temperance men as a party showed how shallow are their pretensions, and how weak and watery their love For the cause. For the past few years these extremists have isolated themselves from the rest of society and declared that they were going: to stand or fall by temperance principles.

With its army of partizan ofiicials hard at work. its in" famous gerrymander in operation, and ‘the many other advantages which a strongly entrenched position afforded it, the Mowat Government went into the conflict with the odds greatly in its favor. The Conservatives were handiâ€" capped. The dissolution caught them napping; and in no constituency was their organization what it should be. The Mail cry too. notwithstanding the repudiation of the Conservative leaders, had a baneful effect. It drove many Catholic Conservatives out of their party and dampened the ardor of those who remained. On the other hand, few Protestants joined the Opposition be- cause of‘ the Mail's peculiar arraignâ€" ment ofthe Mowut Government. They evidently believed that it was a political cry gotten up by the pulp tower organ for selfish purposes without regard ‘to the well being or safety of any sect or creed.
