Willison of the Toronto "News" tells
ns In. his highly eulogistic biography
of Sir Wilfrid Laurier and his times
that the general eleotion of 1878, when
the Meokenzie Government appealed
to the people, "was a violent and
bad-tempered campaign." Many of
the prophets proved to be wrong and
"there were speeches made by men
of very considerable standing that
are no credit to our politioal literature.
The press too was savage and sometimes
venomous, but on the whole its tone
was better than that of the politicians."

TOWN DIRECTORY.
THE ACTUAL SITUATION.
In deciding upon which party or lead-
er ought to be entrusted with the im-
portant duty of government, it la wise
to take a broad and compreikenslve view
of the claims of the different candidates.
Sometimes' willfully, and sometimes so-
oidentally, public attention may be
diverted from the main questions at
issue, and action may be diotated by
conclusions based upon look of know-
ledge or exaggeration of the importance
of some minor matter.
"Stealing clothes" is a charge that
will have no weight with thoughtful
voters. If a member of the Opposition
party in Parliament made any good
suggestion concerning legislation or
administration, the Government would
be blameworthy for failing to adopt that
suggestion. Oarrying out practical,
wise proposals is no dishonesty towards
the proposer, although failure to do
so might be dishonesty towards the peoe
ple, who expect the Government to do
the best that it oan.
Every man who propounds a good
idea ie a public benefactor. The man
or party who takes that idea and em-
bodies it in the concrete form of p100 -
deal legislation is a public benefaotor.
It is to the credit of the Conservative
party that they support the good legisla-
tion proposed by the Liberals. It is no
offence for the Liberals to support any
wise plans or measures whioh the Con-
servatives originate.

Canadian development. The hand of
a skillful °spade) has been at the helm
of the ship of Stete, and loud has been
the world's admiration of the progress
ramie, and the propeot that progress
has opened. Is this the time to bid
that leader yield his place to the rep-
resentative of a party that failed to do
what he bas done, and that to -day con-
demns his methods and belittles his
achievements?
When a great enterprise is being
handled with marked ability by a man-
ager who has turned its former failure
into prosperity and success, is it likely
that he will be told to give plaoe to the
representatives of the methods under
whioh the record was disaster and loss?
No business man would allow ole,mor,
would allow clamor, orprejudioe, or
misrepresentation, to make him guilty of
suoh absurdity and folly.
Fortunately, it is true that both the
Liberals and Conservativee desire to
enure good government and give effect
to what they believe to be sound prin-
ciples. Fortunately also, both Sir
Wilfrid Laurier and the Hon. Mr. Bor-
den, as well as the rank and file of their
respective parties, earnestly desire to
have the country's politics clean, whole-
some, and just. The thoughtful inde-
pendent voters, who decide eleotions will
therefore, in the present contest, be
guided by their judgment as to whioh
party is the more likely to successfully
carry on the great work of Canadian
up -building and development that is
commanding such world-wide attention
to -day.
It is not certain that a change of
Government would involve the aban-
donment of the great enterprizee that
ars now going on. The new Govern-
ment would probably be wise enough to
"steal" some of the ()lethal), or rather
oarry out much of the good work,
whioh the Government has inatignrated.
Would they do this as well as the
Liberals would do it? Wonld they be
as likely to carry to mous the great
pains and projects of their politioal op-
ponents, as would the men who inaug-
urated those projects, who took pride
and delight in them, and have No far
carried them on, frequently against
opposition? Will the electors not be
more likely to pot their trust in the
men of achievement and faith, than
in the men who have mainly shown

We will accept the claims of honesty
made in behalf of the Hon. Mr. Borden.
for the sake of argument let ne admit
all that is so loudly asserted concerning
his ability. Still, it moat be admitted
that he has not given promise of skill as
a great administrator, and we must re-
cognize the foot that his lieutenants and
advisers are the men under whose man-
agement oar finances showed dfloit after
deficit, the cream of oar population was
drifting over the southern boundary,and
oonditions were 80 unpromising that
the country disoarded the bunglers, and
turned for aid to others.
Those others have done all that was
expected of them and more. Every con-
sideration and argument that was ad -
Yawed in 1896 for the dismissal of the
Ooneervative Goveroment, Which had
proved eo disastrone a failure, is equally
an argument to. day in favor of retain-
ing in power the Liberal Government

magnificent success.

SHE WAS CARELESS.
And So the Careful Husband Decided
to Teach His Wife a Lesson.
"My wife has a disagreeable habit of
leaving her pocketbook in exposed
places," said the man who was telling
the story. "I had cautioned her more
than once that she would lose it If she
wasn't more careful.
"I came downtown with her the other
morning, and the first thing she did
after boarding the car was to deposit
her purse upon the car seat, while she
relieved herself of the terrible sus-
picion that her hat wasn't on etraight.
A movement of her arms knocked the
purse on the floor, where it remained
until I picked it up.
"I rescued that purse no less than
a dozen times before we reached the
bargain counter that was the goal of
my wife's ambition.
"Eveuts around a bargain counter
occur with kaleidoscopic swiftness, and
I soon found myself the sole guardian
of my wife's purse, which lay before
me on the counter where it had been
deserted by her in a mad. rush for the
other end of the counter.
"To teach her a lesson I emptied the
contents of the purse in my pocket and
retreated to the edge of the crowd to
await developments.
"It wasn't long before my wife
crowded her way out, triumphantly
holding aloft n twenty-five cent cream
jug that she had succeeded in buying
for 49 cents.
"'1 didn't know that they charged
things here,' I began feebly.
""they don't,' she answered. 'I have
money left for three ice cream sodas
and a strip of car tickets.' And she
exhibited the contents of her purse to
prove her assertion.
"I nearly fainted when it dawned
upon me that 1 had taken the contents
from a purse belonging to some other
woman.
"I have no desire to retain possession,
and if the woman who lost 79 cents, a
postage stnnap, three hairpins and a
recipe for making angel food will call
at my office she may have her prop-
erty." -Detroit Free Press,
