The Province of Ontario is that principally afl‘ected for it was in Ontario in 1882 and 1892 that the sweet will of the framers of the acts of those years was worked without let or hindrance and the boast was “then unhlushingly made that they "wvo‘uld ‘- hive the Grits†wherever ‘any opportunity could possibly be ‘made. It is all very well for the Opposition to squeal now; even if the pendulum were swinging the 'other way, and the Tories found themselves hived in certain constitu- encies, they would not have very much to kick about, but two wrongs do not make a right, and it Would have been no justiï¬cation to have adopted such apolioy simply as rc- taliation for the past.

The necessity for legislation in the matter is very generally recognized, in fact the so eieties themselves have long been urging the Government to take action but on a. matter affecting so many interests, it is only to be expected that considerable diversity of opinion would exist as to the best course to be pursued. The Government de- sires to give those interested the full- ‘est opportunity to make known their wants and wishes, and by delaying legislation until next session the several societies concerned will have To The EstOY of Tm: LIBERAL: SIn,-â€"Muny kind, appreciative, and well-deserved remarks have been made in the Newmarket and surrounding press of the late Mr. \Vn).
