Strrpi. then, of all the foreign ac- cretions with which the statesman» ship or pelland plunder seeks to ob- scure, it, the election will be a con- test between honesty and ,rascality. Now, he one who is not crazed with the inr st :gnorant partizanship, will claim that to be Liberal is to be honest. and to be Conservative is to be dishonest. Neither party enjoys a monopoly of the virtues. And it is for this very reason that in nearly every ridingr throughout the length and Ln'endth of Canada, Conserva- tives are boldly xlceep‘ing in abey- ance their distinguishing political tenets, and openly and heartily giv- ing a loyal support to Edward Blake. They may differ from him on many questions, but they are willing to Sink for the present all diHerences of opinion on great public questions it thereby they can restore to the country that prune necessity of all good governmentacommon honesty. A statesman may be readily pardon- ed for an error at Judgment, but never tor mendacity. He may be frankly forgiven 1’or even serious miscalculations, but never tor syste- matic inculculationof the doctrine that political vice is the only proper means for the achievement of politl- cal preterment. \Vo 1'12: ve information of the most rf-lid‘ie hiwd that the _three York's ,wl’l be} (a "mere supporters of Mr. It will nut avail either to belittle or to Shirl; the danger which now stat-25:11:: in the face.

Another great Con- servatixe organ recently admitted that for years it consciously and with malice aforethought slandered the Hon. Edvard Blake and the Hon. Alexantflcl' Mackenzie.

The Mail always enters; the fight to the beautiful strains of the ‘Bo3ne \Vaier.‘ The Standard, however, rushes to the tray to the enlivening stIains of ‘St. Patrick’s Day.’ The Toronto Mail will give during the present campaign its unique and original twoâ€"face act.

The part, yc cpt Mail, will deal in innuendo, cunning falsificat- ion, and generally in all that is dark and tortuous. It will make the most of the old fashioned trick of giving a Sprat to catch a herring.

In East York there is. practically speaking, no opposition to Hon. Alexander Mackenzie. Conserva- tives are vying with Reformers in their efforts to give him a most sub- stantial proof of the high esteem enâ€" tertained for him alike by political supporters and opponents. Although strenuous attempts have been made to load the riding up the other way, it is not at all likely that even it a bglt be shot against the grand old patriota it will fall far short of the mark. opposition in North York is simplya forlorn hope. To keep up the cour- age of their rapidly decreasing sup- porters. the Macdonald Government is straining every nerve to prevent the loss of any constituency by ac- clamation. Accordingly, Col.
