Mr. W. F. Maelean, member for East York, from time to time ad- dresses the electors of his riding through the columns of his morning newspaper, “The World.” He has for some weeks been expressing him- self in an unfair way against THE LIBERAL in View of the opinions we hold in regard to the dispute between the City of Toronto and the Metro- politan Railway Company. THE LIBERAL has on several occasions reâ€" ferred editorially to the desirability of having connection between the Metropolitan and the C. P. R., be- lieving that thejunction would great~ 1y benefit the County of York as a whole, and for this we are accused of writing for the interests of the Metâ€" ropolitan Railway. On the 4th inst. The World went so far as to insinu- ate that the articles in THE LIBERAL bearing on the question had been written by Mr. Moyes, and on Tues- day of this week that paper again sneeringly referred to “ The Metro- politan Railway speaking through Tm: LIBERAL.” We would prefer not calling attention to the clum- sily-worded editorials in this paper, but in justice to the Metropolitan Railway we feel it our duty to say that the insinuations made were alte- g‘ether without foundation, as neither Mr. Muyes nor any other person in connection with the company had ever written a line nor even suggest- ed a line for the columns of Tun Lin- ERAL. We are not proud of our composition, but must confess that no paragraph bearingr 011 railway matters had ever been written 01‘ dictated by any other person than the editor whose name appears in every paper issued. This being the case it scarce- ly looks like" good manneis on-the part of the editor of The World to make the insinuation, harmless as it is. Changeâ€"H. C. Bailey. IiIEfiMOND HILL. December 14, 1899 The World is apparently 0f opin- ion that the representatives of the company and the outer municipalities along Yonge Street are engaged in a conspiracy to turn Yonge Street into a roudbed for a railway. Some peoâ€" ple have been led to believe that the County Council gave the company permission to run steam locomotives on Yongc Street. The least enquiry into the matter would convince them that they are utterly wrong, as no such power has ever been granted. The World is pleased to attack the Railway Committee of the Privy Council upon the ground that they have joined in a conspiracy to steal Yonge Street from the County and hand it over to the Railway Company. Such a charge as this is' not credit- able to the party making it when the circumstances of the case are known. The matter of connection with the C. P. 12., however, is in the courts, and, speaking from a County stand- point, we hope the request of the County Councillors will be granted. Reference to the statutes of this Province will show any one that the Metropolitan Co. in using its railway along Yonge Street is absolutely under the control of the County Council in carrying on freight busi» mess. The last agreement made with the company so provides, and not only so, but it goes further, and provides that freight rates are to be fixed by the Provincial Government. Had there been no opposition to the proposed connection there is no reason why coal cou‘id not now be iaid down at every house along Yonge Street at a price very little above the price at which it is deliver" ed on any street in Toronto. The World publishes an article from last week’s Newmarket Em. THE “WORLD IS TROUBLED. New Aavertisements. It is well known that Mr. Hill, M. P. P. for West York. is in favor of lower rates on trolley lines, as when he was a member of the County Council he expressed himself plainiy and vigorously on the sul-jeet. There is no reason for thinking that either Hon. E. J. Davis or Mr. John lich- ardson is in league with the Metro- politan Company, therefore, when legislation governing all electric rail- ways comes before the Legislature, the memhe 's for the three Yorke may be trusted to guard the rights of the people. At the same time they will do justice to the railroad men, who have sunk probably more than half a million dollars in the trolley venture.

We agree with the Era that the Metro- politan fares are too high, and have often said so, but we do not agree with The World when that paper says the Government should compel the company to carry passengers at a cent a mile.

For instance, one man makes a fortune out of a simple thing; inimediateiy hundreds of others try it. This is human nature. Whiie it is gratifying to be the “first man ” to bring out an idea, the great mass must be content to follow their leaders. There is one line that is al- ways original, however, and that is the business of B ‘zidley-Garretson (30., Limited, of Brantford, Ont, he- cause they continually bring out pub~ lieations to suit the times and seasons, thus their agents are. kept steadily at it and make big money. In fact, no other occupation is more honorable, healthful, lucrative, or offers half as many opportunities for promotion. It is a life school. Many men and women in Canada to-day testify to the truthfulness of this claim, in fact, it is conceded on all hands, that one year’s experience with this firm is worth more to any young man or woman than. two or three years at college, from an educational point of View, and financially it is all that can be desired.
