The laws of Canada are. administered by judges who cannot be currupted and who exercise the greatest care in the judgements which they give. Indeed one of the proudest boasts of the British subjects is the integrity of the bench and the even handed justice that there may be obtained. As new conditions and relations arise new laws are framed and these are bound upon the conscience of the people and every liberty loving subject is bound to respect the laws of the country which protects him. Some laws may not meet with our personal approval but that is no reason for disregarding and disobeying them. We may agitate for their repeal. There is a legal remedy for every unjust condition. But so long as they are on our statute books they must be obeyed. The sense of justice and respect for the rights of others are principles so strongly imbedded in the British heart that unjust laws are seldom enacted. Hence it is that British subjects are at once the freest and the most law-abiding nan} uvvhu;\4 v.n~v u. ..V v y- _--_ And is to be kept in mind that Canada will survive and the ordinary work of life go on, whichever party wins. A desperate fight may be expected; but Canada has survived several other desperate fights, some of them quite as ex- citing, as bitter and confusing as anything we are likely to have this time. Let us so vote on September 14th, that the result will be really and truly the voice of the people. It is predicted that the campaign just begun will deâ€" velop into one of the sharpest ever waged in Ganadian poliâ€" tics. There is every indication that the intention of the party leaders is to make it what is commonly known as a fight to the finish. It is, perhaps, too much to expect that the fighting will be restricted to strictly public and legiti- mate issues. Election campaigns are notoriously unfavor- able for the disposal of public questions on their merits. Some times it might seem as if the purposes of an election campaign were to prevent the expression of gen- uine public opinion. The temptation is to appeal to the emotions and the prejudices of the electors, rather than to their reasoning powers. All the more reason why the elec- tors should endeavor to keep their heads cool and their vis- ion clear. The people are concerned in the result and not merely the politicians. Fortunate will be the elector who can look back on the campaign after it is over and truthâ€" fully declare that he never lost his head. fifi-u -_l....:-.,c AMA Is public morality improved by adventures in muck- raking? There is a well-founded belief in publicity; much good is expected of the turning of the light on dark and secret places and the exposure of wrongdoing, but the effect is undoubtedly weakened when the evidence of party zeal becomes conspicious. When both parties undertake to play the game the effect on the public mind is confusing and the tendency is to shake public confidence in both. peoble in the world. The peddlers of poison alcohol, without intending it, are probably doing effective work in promoting the real cause of temperance. They are teaching that there is dan- ger to health and life in bootleg liquor, and that the only safe course is to leave it all alone. The cost of genuine liquor is so high that many of the bootleggers cannot afford to handle it; hence the peddling of poisonous stuff. Some people take a long time to learn; but there are some things which must be learned, and some of the boot- leggers are doing their share to spread the ,knowledge of the fact that the effect of poison is to kill. \VOI'KE Law never leads civilization, but always follows in its wake. Its purpose and its object is to regulate and control the relations of men with each other and their relations to the state. Progress goes on; new inventions are made; new regulations between men occur and it is the office of the law to march behind them, to regulate and order them and to produce. Laws are formed by our Legislatures whether they are municipal, provincial or national, and in a democratic country such as this is, they are the essence of the thought of the people. There is a fine network of in- terests, opinions, reverences, feelings or honor and shame, fears and loves, spread over the community and these flash up to meet and correspond to and enforce the laws framed ,1, _A_, _J_-.'_:~LA.AA’] hf Established 1878 AN INDEPENDENT WEEKLY PUBLISHED EVERY THURSDAY AT RICHMOND HILL THE LIBERAL PRINTING C0., LTD.
