supporting Dr. Adams whom the paper refers to as “ a lifelong, stren- uaus and wavering supporter of Liberalism,” instead of Mr. Marter. Mr. Marter has frequently been referred to in the columns of The Mail as a traitor during the past few months. And why ? Simply because the late Conservative leader would notjoin with Mr. Whitney in calling the Ross Government a pack of thieves and rogues. The Mallsays that: the Government gave away for nothing thousands of acres of pulp wood in New Ontario. Mr. Marter said it was the best bargain that oould possibly be made, and he therefore voted for the government, and against his party on that im- portantqnestion. Yet The Mail says or of the Conservative opposition in Ontario, and only a week or two ago The Mail in a lengthy editorial labored to Show the ingi‘atltude of the Liberals of North Toronto in not The Mail of Tuesday called upon all Ontario to unite against the Grit; machine, saying that“ the machine is, of course, aimed at Conservatives and Independents.” Is Mr. Marter not an Indepen. dent? And is the so-called machine not supporting Mr. Marter in North Toronto? Mr. Marter is the pre- decessor of Mr. Whitney, as a lead- er of the Conservative opposition in Ontario, and only a week or two that the Grin machine is aimed Conservatives and Independents. It will be observed that Mr. Hill has answered without a quibble. and no intelligent person can doubt where he stands on the question. Mr. St. John is silent on the ques- tion askel, namely prohibition, but he is quite elcquent in giving his opinion on tho refurendum, about which the League did not ask. Mr. St. John answered in tlze following words :â€" “In reply,I beg to state that I have been a total abstainer during my whole life. I will always sup port; honest measures of moral re form and endeavor to lessen the evils of intempe ‘anee. “ I regard the Ross referendum as a delusion and a snare; a new creation, vicious in principle, per- fidious in design, deceitful in aim, a repudiation of the principle of responsible governmenfi, and a monument to the memory of a monument broken p10 Ul‘OKCl) plea It will be has nnswcrc no intellia‘ " I have already voted for legis- lation to prohibit the traffic in intox- icating liquors for beverage purposes, so far as is within the ascertained power of the province, and if such legislation be approved by the elec- torsI will do all in my power to secure the proper enforcement of the same.” We pi‘int below the answers to allow the electors to see how He cmdidates stand on the question. Mr. Hill replied as follows:â€" " If elected to the Legislature will you do all you can to secure the enactment and enforce- ment of the legislation pro- hibiting the traffic in intoxicating liquors for beverage purposes as far as is within the ascertained pomr ol'the Province, even to the extent of voting against your party ?

There are no seats, there is no fire in the coldest days in winter, and the room is in :l filthy slate, and utterly unfit for any person to enter. The RnilwayComprzuy got the right to puss over Yonge St. from our County Council free of charge, and for this valuable frunrhise the comfort of the travelling public is con- lmnpt-uously ignored. Mr. Hayes mu! his Company agreed to put on unto» (lute cars, and they have ignored l'E!~ peuted requests by the County Uoun~ cil to cushion the smits, and now the council are taking stops to force- them. Mr. Moyes is seeking a. spat, in Parliaâ€" ment in order to legislate for more favors for his company. If he has not kept, his fm'uwi- promises how could he be trusted in Parliament?

It, would be easier to point out what Mr. J. \V. Moyes and the Metropolitan For the three years in which the law has been in force taxing corpor- ations, such as insurance companies and banks, the Government troas ury has received $683,345.87. This is as Mr. Ross pointed out; a few days ago, six times as much money as the Government contrit‘ ufes ior the High Schools of the province, yet Mr. Whitney says that if he becomes premier he will repeal this measure. The tax on brewers and distillers has yielded $138,270, and Mr. Whithey has opgosed the taxation. If it’s coated, your stomach is bad, your liver is out of order.
