' EDITORIAL NOTES. • WE observe that some of our: exchanges. , - occasionally announce ;that ".,Mr. Stnith and lady are visiting &c," IF hey would au-bs ld- show better taste. .; • , Tut Conservative war cry "Movvat' Lust go, " sounds through the, lengith and breadth of the land, and the hills -and val- leys re-echo with• the cry "Yes, Mowat: must go—back to Parliament as Pren3ier,." TUE Charybdis, which has already cost - the Canadian Government over $20,000, is to be returned to the English Govern• - ment as being too unwieldy to_ be of ser- vice. It would be better to scuttle her, than pay her expenses across the ocean. Tut Mail might slack up between "llarinion '1--and-the_Croctlfs Act," take a breathing spell, and tell the farmers why the N. P. don'.raise the price of wheat, barley, peas, dats, &c. Many who pinned their faith on the ability of the N. P. to do this, are becoming apostates, and they must be looked after. Salo a Conservative of prominence the other day.; "The Mail is- certainly too unprincipled in its attacks on Mowat, and can't erdorse all its utterances, for I be- lieve him to be honest at any rate:" We have reason to believe that a good many snore, evenin the Conservative rank, sen- tertain the same opinion, even if they are not so free in expressing it The following is the list of the can- didates in seven of the eight constituen- cies in which elections are about to take place for the Local Legislature, on Wed- nesday next:— Reformers. Conservatives.. South Essex .. —Balfour . Wright. , .. .. South ..... South Bruce O'Connor Eckford East Simcoe Drury Slaveu Muskoka Bettes.. Prows°, West Hastings . Lee Rose.. ......

It wi I be interesting to see howiliese ma- , joriti s will vary at the . Present election, for vary they assuredly will, for no two elections are held in any •conatituency- with precisely the,same result etch thne. PECULIAR legal difficulties arc continu- ally cropping up, notwithstanding the cons stant endeavor to make laws as complete - and far reaching as Possible. Aelisions_ point ifi tlie law on voters' lists came be- fore Judge Sinclair at Stoney Creek lately, A young mast named Marshall Hopkins asked to be put on the list as 'a farmer's son. It came out during the examination that Marshall is living on a fartn w_hich.iii owned and ran by his mother, who. is. gess parated from his father. The question then arose, "Is the woman a farmer for the purpose of the Vofers' List Act ?" It appears that byfthe terms of a will . or deed of separation the farm is owned by, the mother and an elder sou jointly, De-' eision was reserved. There shouldbe no difficulty in settling that case, for itsseenis only right that the Young man should be put on.. Suppose the woman waS a widow, why should not her son be enti- tled to vote under the act. The Judge, however, may take a different'ie, and if he does, the case sill be used as a pr- refit and attendance to the present, and eedent for others of like nature. , will assuredly resultin much good": being J'',V,IBY day scores of items appear in the DaPets statiw4 that Sgille si"141.1 or Woman had committed suicide while nu - der the influence of Chink, and the ntira- ber seems to be on the increase, although most of them occur in the United States. Are the people of Canada learning.the 1e - son -they should from these circumstances? We fear not, THE Lambton friends ot Hon. Alex. Mackenzie have shown their appreciation of his valuable seryices by presenting him , with a check- for $5,500. This is a tan- gible Mark of esteem, and certainly shows that he still bolds a -warm place in the hearts of his cfld constituents, The testi- monial has never, been surpassed before under similar circumstances in the country Eytni- year the advantage of a home market, (for wheat) created and fostered _by_a_protecti_v_e_tariffsbecomiess4ssemoing- ly apparent.-sMail., There are a good many farniers here who would like to know Where "the ad- vantasre of a home market" is now. We have the protective tariff all right, but it do/1'A ke eplup- prices worth a cent.IWhea is to -day lower than it has been for years and it is like giving a man a slap in the face to tell him such rubbish as the above But as Grip aptly pictures it, "the Mail editor is paid to yell, and yell he's bound to." A Mormon conference was lately held at Salt Lake to discuss the efforts being made by the United States authorities to break. -up-th eir-iniquitous-system of living One of the speakers said that " No power on earth or'in hell can check or prevent the onward march of the kingdom, of God. He did not feel defiant, but must obey the Lord and be faithful to his cotnniands, whatever penalties rna.ri may inflict." An- other said that "Any man or set of men whidArtail or deprive us of our constitu- tional rights are tyrants: and oppressors. We intend lawfully to contend for our rights inch by inch." When men talk such blasphemy, the ruling powers should show their authority, even at the point of the bayonet, and that's about the only way the Mormons will be subdued. OUR ESTEEMED cotemporary,theExporii- tor, while believing that one good county show would be better than so many small ones, argues in favor of the township fairs, "because farmers who cannot'afford to visit the large exhibitions, must see the township show or none at all." This ob- jection to an amalgamation of the town - ;hip shows is a very slight one, for there are few farmers but can attend a large --erhthrtion-iftliervrant-to, and if they can - attend a small fair, in nine cases out of ten they could just as easily attend a larger one in the same county. The' simple fact is that the small shows have outlived their usefulness --a union of the societies is imperative if progress is ex- pected—and without any "ifs and ands" or other presumed provisos all the papers • AT The Dry Goods Palace MILLINERY MANTL:SSILES BR:SS GOODS ac. 9 9 Tile stock for the- season is at tlieDry Goods Palace AN IMMENSE EXHIBIT ! - _ WHOLE BLOCK LITERALLY CRAMMED ! - EQUALLED BY FEW ! - ' EXCELLED BY NONE! _ .

With all their vituperative bitterness the Conservative organs cannot sustain -ft single charge of corruption against it and yet the people of Ontario are asked to turn out of office men whose record is unimpeachable, who have proved themselves faithful stewards, and put in their places men of no legislative ex- perience,—men who haVe not in any of their utterances shown themselves possess- ed of more than an ordinary share of com- mon sense. What the Conservatives of Ontario want is office, pure and simple, and to help, them in their futile endeavors to get the majority of 'Conservative papers resort to the foulest standers, un- supported by a particle of proof,and when cornered in their changes, they wiggle out like a slimy snake, and strike again in a fresh 'spot.
