PRINCIPLES, NOT t1TEN.
The Globe has a very good caption
to its leading editorial of Saturday :
"Blame the Mau, not the Institu-
tions." lint the Gluge has nut been
doing that. For many years it has
blamed both the man and the iusti-
tutiuns. It has perseveringly binln-
• ed $irJohu for sins of olniision, anti
COM 111isS1oIl and 1'or actions which
would not cotno under either sinful
catoguly. At the satno time it Ira's
denounced Canadian institutions
which it ellnrged with polutitting
many alleged but unfounded "its of
naladutinisteati611 ou the part of
Sir Johu and the Government of
which he' is the Premier and the
party of which ho is the honored
chief,
There has not been a decision
given by our higher courts in which
the G./de; had a-pereonal or !,arty
interest but it has clpnounced both
tho iustitutions which permitted tiro
appointment of tho jutiges 'who pre-
sided as %yell the judges themselves.
Tho institutions• which permitted
such honored names as the late
Chic•!' Justice Hon. Matthew Crooks
Cameron and the recently retired
Chief.Justico Hon. Aden Wilson,
to give their splendid tektite for the
adornment of our judiciary and for
maiutaiuing the world-wide sterling
per,-enli-neneo of Canadian .jurispru-
dence, have boon deuounced as the
very fouutaiu of corruption. So
much has tho Gtobtt reticle into the
habit of denouncing our institartlouer,
that the leading English paper of
Quebec, the lluntretal Ifei•a1a1, has
had, sr"veral times of hate, to rcquo.t

It is time for the Globe to cry a
hilt in its crusade trgainst our insti-
ttltions, att,l confine itself to an en-
(letaw to reform abases within the
conet ituteen. Its latest attack ntwn-

w•oys• the Mitchell calamity which
was mentioned iu last weel.'s Nome-

accident in tin admonitory way, as
a warning that wo should be pre-
pared for the final earthly call.
Incidentally reference was made to
to the possible future state of the
victims of the recent accident. Mr.
le,•ss'irl that some theological writers
held that as the tree fell so itshould
lie. Rather they held that futurity
was but auother step onward is the
march of the imperishable soul, That
titan in a future State would con-
tinue his earthly vocation but in a
spiritual sense. That if Mr. C. was
a farmer here he would a farmer in a
spiritual sense iu tho next worlil,grow
ing spiritual wheat etc, and having
spiritualised implements and access-
ories. They held that es all •this
would bo in a spiritual form and
sense thorn would be none of the

tend similar occupations in this
