"In striking the Standing Commitees, reach chairman wants to get the best. .men in their respective committees. iMr. Richardson has for several years past been a member of every Stand ~ ing‘ Commit-tee, exeept the Legal Committee. This is an honor which has been conferred upon less than llama-dozen members of the House. sHo also introduced a number of bills most of which have become law. Mr. Richardson has a good share 01‘ the credit with lion. John Dryden who introduced as a Government measure the many good clauses in the Ontario Shops Regulation Act.

The only thing which has come un- der our notice for East York is a pamphlet of some eight or ten blank pages, insinuating that Mr. John Richardson, Ex-M. P. P., has rdone nothing during the eight years he was in Parliament, but that “ he got a job for himself.” The last ‘assertion is altogether without foundation. Mr. Richardson has mot asked the Government for a position or job since he has been a Member of the Legislature, and that 'body has not offered him anything i'of‘t‘ne kind. -> As to .Mr. Richardson not doing :anything in parliament the charge is untruthful as well as unfair. It would certainly be unfair to gauge :the usefulness of a member by the :numbcr or length of his speeches. It is well known that outside the members of the Cabinet and two or three others on the same side, and probably three or four speakers on the side of the Opposition, few men 11183 ‘Change- Imps-tin] Oil‘eo.

William Lyon Mackenzie, George Brown, Baldwin, Alexander Macken- zie, Blake, were of this school. Whatever their weaknesses, there was one marked characteristic of their puplic record: they fought in season and out of season to protect the rights of the people and to widen the rights of the people. They and the Reform :party fought against the old Family Compact; they fought to have municipal in- stitutions, and, once obtained, to im- prove their usefulness to the people; they demanded, and aided in secur- ing, in a measure, representation by population; they opposed aunion of church and state: they improved land tenure in Lower Canada; and in other respects they declared them- selves to he the party of the people and the party of progress, as against the Tories, or the party of reaction” mess in New Ontario wins Canada for the RV UNMANLY MEANS New Ontario.
