We are not surprised that; a gentle- man like Mr. Borden is prepared l: defend a measure for which he votgrv in Parliament. Neither do we fin: fault with the Mail for endorsing it leader's actions. We morer wish n point out, howevar, that time and again the Mail has condemned Siv Wilfred Laurier and other Liberal members for voting for the same measure. Another example that wit' the Mail a Tory can do no wrong. The Ontario Government will in- vestigate the affails uf the York County Loan and Savings Company. The . returns are not yet complete in Saskatchewan, but; it now seen 3 certain that Scott will have a major» ity uf six or seven over his rival, Haultain. Ahoarder wanted. Apply at THE LIBERAL Otfic». If tlwre is a pitiulnle sight in the world. it is that of a man with tha ex- ecutive ability. sagncity. and fUl't‘Si ht to make a clean fortune. yet using is energy and aluilitios in making a. dirty oneâ€"n fortune which denmmcvs and condemns him. and is a perpetual dis- grace to himself and his family. “ Mr. Borden's remarks on the sub- ject of indcmnities and pensions will be well considered by the people. They are the views of a public man who has no personal interest to serve, and who, iron) the private financial standpoint, would be much better ofl' if attending to his own work instead of the work of the country. It lnus' be borne in mind that our condition: are changing, that the labor of tlu member of Parliament is growiny greater every year, and that the leader of the Opposition has to main tain an office as complete in ever} particular as that of any Minister If it is a choice between the indemni fication of the leader by a few part) men and his indemnification by the countrr as a whole, we prefer tha- the country pay for it.” The following programme will be given at the Methndiat Sunday School Entertainment on Christmas night : 1. Prelude and Chorusâ€"Piano & Shil- [ 1n n 10. 1 6. The Mail and Empire endorsed the remarks of the leader of the Opposi- tion cdztoriidly in the following HOME-- “ He defended the increased in- demnity to members. but said he was willing that this and every other fea- ture of the bill should be recon- Iidered. The increase in the length of the session was his defence for his support of the increased salary. As to his own stipend he indignantly de- nied that it destroyed his usefulness as an opposition critic. He did not u‘lggest or initiate the idea, but he had no vested right in the leadership of the party. He was not paid by the Government. but by the coun- try." CONDEM‘SING THE GRITS ONLY Mr. R. L. Borden, leader of the Opposition in the Dominion Parlia- ment, made a public address in To- rmto last week, and referring to what is sometimes called “ the salary grab." the World reports Mr. Borden as follows :â€" RICHMOND BILL. 0515.
