Returning Officer for West York, hafi called the'nomination at the RussellVI-Iouae, Weston. RICHMOND FRIDAY, Feb. 9, 1883 An independent Journal sounds the key note 'well when it says :' “ Don't makp anv mistake. The Conservatives, it Sir John can make them, are going into the fight 7 as 'Gonaervatives, not as provincial-fighters or provincial-wrongers." Truly provincial right-a or provincial wrongsvroceive no con~ adoration at their hands if they can but awry the elections. The time is short. TWo weeks from Tues- day will tell the taio. Short though it may be. there is enough time however to do the vork that is necessary to be done ,in order to ensures. glorious victory for Prorincial Rights, Honest Government and the princi- ples of Temperance. and to give to the pnrty that is willing to lay the Provmce of Ontario :1 sacrafice at the feet of Sir John Macdonaid and the Quebec Bieue, and who is trampling Election Notes. The Election takes place on the 27th inst., the Nominations on the 29th. on Provincial Rights and who is playing in- to the bands of the liquor interests of the. country. such a crushing defeat that thev will at once and forever understand that Ontario means to defend her ' own rights, and allow neither usurper nor traitor to tnrnish the fair fame of the nget} Province of the fuderation. But this 191101: to be accomplished without any 93011. on the part of those who dgsire to see the right sustainedaud the wrong crush- ed out. Let “ Excelsior ” be written on the banner of every Reformer. and if borne for W‘u‘d with the spirit of Lougfeflow’s hem, and with work. work, work as his motto the goal will be victory; indifference will be surev and ruinous defeat. There is not a. doubt but there will be a. very large Conservative vote po.led on. the day of election. The object of the Conserv- ative lights is to get the same votes they Rid at the Dominion election. Of course the issues are entirely dih’erent, but they will endeavor to blinufold the eyes of many. and no doubt they will succeed to a. large extent, but Beformers must not be idle or the enemy will steal a march. The Mownt Government is going into the Battle on the strength of its record. during the past twelve years, but the 'J‘ories dare 110' do thisâ€"~they are takipg side issues and trying to drng'Domiuiou ppmics into “no contest. And there are ma’ny no doubt who do not trouble themselvofi‘to think out mat- ter! tor themselves will thus be gulled ‘nflo voting against their own interests. But should those who are in favor of the N. P. so far as to vote wrth the Conservatives in the Dominion elections, vote With them in Provincial elections. The N. P. has nothing to do with the Provincial elections. The issues of the present contest are, 1st Will you support Mr. Mowat. who says: “Ontario must have her rights; and the Award of the Arbitrators, giving to Ontario what justly belongs to her, must be ratified," or win you support Mr. Meredith. Sir John Maodonald's henchmen. who saystâ€""One half of Ontario's territory must be taken from her, or we will lose the support ofthe Quebec Bleus." 2nd --Will you support Mr. Mowat, who say: “Ontario shall mske her own laws," or Mordith 8: Modonald, who say: "Ontario must have the sanction of the Ottaws authorites in all her legislation." 3rdâ€"Will you support Mr. Mowat, who says: “Liquor Licenses shall remain under the control of the Goverment." or Meldith 6; Mscdouuld who so: they must be given back into the hands of the muni. oipalities, so that there may be free trade in liquor. These are the main issues of the present contest, with many others of almost equal importance. @111: . fiiihkwl, Yorkville is no more.

The Mad. of the 30th um, in closing its repel-t. of the Conservatlve Convention at Weston. at which Major Gray was selected an the Conservative standard bearer for West York, gets ofi the follming joke on the gal- lam Major: " Major Gray; was barn in the Countyâ€"which he will no doubt revresent in the Legislature-1u the year 1837." Its meaning is gramatically correol , but to thone who are unfamiliar wish the use of dashes. it assumes the chamel-er of a good joke. ‘ (The Conservative orguu is evidently mind.

FRIDAY’S SESSION. The Cuuncll resumed Friday morning â€"t.he Warden iu. the cher Vt” . MrfFrtin'k Turner moved, seconded by Mr. H. R. Frankland, that all toll-game on the county roads be tortliwith I‘UHIUV’ ed. In muting the resolution he said he found that the expenses for 1882. on these ro:.ds were $16,800. $14,985, (it which yas for inucadaui and labor, and $1,813.53, for sundries, and he found from the engineer that $27,300 Iliad been received from the toll-gates. There Were ‘tifteen toll-gates. each of which BHpDOX‘Zt‘d u tuniin it. appeared to him that the lowest amount of iuuiiey that Would support these families would be about, $500 each, making». total of $7,500, for the fifteen toll-gates. They Were puying $7,500 for the purpose of simply collect- Illu $11,300, and it appeared to him that it. was altogether too grunt u. percentage. The asseuaett value of the county was “pout $30,000,050. and supposing they abolished the tell-gates the money re- quired to maintain the roads would be something less than one third“ of a inill’in the dollar on the whole taxation ut the county. _1t .ias a very email figure. and the time had come “hell the toll- guten aliuiild be'i'eiuoved not only from an economical point of View, but they Were certainly a bar to progress. As Yurkviile was de j'acto a part of the city of Turuutu‘ the city Would buy that part of the road which runs through that Vllluge. Riverside, Park- d‘.le,t unil' Brockton would also Come into 'llw city of 'l'urontu, and the city would buy all these pieces of the county roads, The toll-gates should be abolish- ed as am-u as arrangements could be made with 1838085 to, take the gates off their hands at ii. reasonable figure.
