When the ppeals were hoard before
the Judge some startling facia were dis-
covered. Boys of 18, 19 and 20 years,
of Tury parents, were found on the roll
(in some instane.a agsiust the wish of
the parents); absentees, under the stat-
ute were also there; students attending
college were entered as bona aide farmers
soils; in one instance a full-fledged doctor
doing for himself, was Siena to be
on as • farmers' son, and other in
stances could be traced as having been
breaches of the statute. Had the errors
thus made by the Assessor been divided
with any degree of equality between the
two parties, there would be some reason
to believe that the erroneous a.sess-
omats were not done with design; but
when all turned out to be adverse
to the interests of the political party to
which the assessor was opposed, the
cloven foot of partizanship became man-
ifest.
The time hasarrived when definite
action must be taken, or there -is no
knowing where the lawbreaking will
end. We understand the case of the
Goderich township assessor will come
botor. an early court, and a full and free
exposition of the manner in which the
roll was manipulated may then be look-
ed for. In such an event there will be
a shaking up of dry bones from one end
of the township to the other.
Of course, it is quite possible that the
assessor, in this instance, acted from
outside advice. Unfortunately in some
instances the assessor is but a creature
of those who appoint him, and has to
manipulate the lists in the interests of
those to whom he owes his position. But
be this as it may, it is sincerely to be
hoped that an early eismple will be
made in court, so that the law on the
subject will not continue td be the dead
letter in has been in the past.

THE WEST HURON PETITION.
The king of France. with forty tboneand men,
Went up the hill, and then cametdown again.
We have all along contended that the
petition azaiust the return of M. C.
Cameron, M. P. for West Huror, was •
fizzle and would vanish into thin air
when a judicial test was applied. Two
weeks ago we gave the points that would
prove fatal to the petition, when it would
come into court, acid the action of Mr.
Justice Cameron on Friday last fully
bears out what we have contended. A
number of cases similar in bearing to
that of West Huron came before Jus-
tice Cameron on that occasion and the
yreliminary objections to the hearing of
tate petition, raised by the respondents,
were sustained. What our Tory friends
in West Huron will do under existing
circumstances we know not. Their
bubble has burst, and
All the kings horses, and all the kings men.
Can't pat their bubble together again.
If the protest -mongers were really in
earnest, they have received a severe dis-
appointment,
ieappointment, and somebody is badly to
blame for lifting them up so high to get
so bad fall.
For ourselves, 'ire never believed the
petition was anything other that a bit of
bravado. The Tories of West Huron
had been beaten, and not lilting
the sound thrashing they had re-
ceived, they bethought them of the
petition dodge, tomakebelieve that a fair
fight had not been fought. The $1,000
was raised with great difficulty, and
after Mr. P. Kelly, of East Huron, had
been coaxed to help set the fund on its
legs. A solicitor was secured to at-
"
tend to the drafting of an "imposing
petition and other legal matters in con-
nection. Everything went lovely for a
while, and then the bright picture assumed
a different shade. The petition was en-
tered in the wrong court ' The

supremacy in tate Orient bas been more
fully established.
THta, from the St. Thomas Joaniel, is
something after the style of the M.4 :-

the last two elections.

Tea tableaux edema* at the Tury con-
vention at Toronto brought down the
house. John O'Donohoe representing
the flees, grasping the hand of (:rand
Sovereign Rowell, the Orange, made the
most striking scene. The guilty blush
that mantled the cheek of the Minister
of Customs, told of the hypocrisy of the
mum and the hollowness of the fraud.
But the brethren applauded, and Sir
John, the stagernan•ger, thought it •
big hit.
Os the fifty -thee then holdiug liquor
licenses in West Huron, fifteen are Re-
formers. This doesn't look as if licenses
were awarded or .refused on account of
politics. Of the thirteen hotels and
liquor shops in Goderich, but four are
run by Reformers. The Conservative
liquor dealers of Huron are disgusted
with the hypocrisy and meanness of the
Tory press on the license question. None
of them would care to do business again
ander the old system.
114RD TO PLEASE.
It is an exceedingly difficult thing to
please our Tory friends. Only a short
time ago they were clamoring because
Mr. Mowat did not bring on the elec-
tions in the eight vacant constituencies
in Ontario, and now when the date has
been set for filling the vacancies a howl
of deep wrath arises from the Lib. -Con.
press because Mr. Mowat does not die-
solvethe House, andbrittg ontheProvin-
cial election.
The Free Premie, of London, leads the
howl, and upbraids Mr. Mowat for his
cowardice in bringing on the eight elec-
tions instead of dissolving the House,
'utterly regardless ofthe fact that fur the
past three months it has been clamoring
because the seats remained vacant. If
Mr. Mowat were to dissolve the Local
House before the next sitting the Free
i DESPITE the sneers of the Tory faction-
ists, the Ontario Bureau of Statistics is
making an enviable reputation for itself.
It is a model to younger provinces, as
well as a credit to our. own. It is in-
tended to initiate in Manitoba the On-
tario plan of collecting vital statistics, to
issue monthly crop reports from every
oounty in the Prairie Province and to
establish two new meteorological ata-
tionst'at Fort Ellice and in the Souris
district. -

"ENqutase" wants to know it it is
true the petition against Mr, Oameron's
return as member fur West Huron was
entered in the Division Court instead of
in the Election Court. For the infor-
mation of "Enquirer" and others we
would state that the ease was eutered in
the Queen's Bench Division of the High
Court of Justioe, but for all practical
purposes it might jest as well have been
tyled in the Division Court, the Police
Court, or anywhere else, but in the reg-
ular Election Court.
Hearing that the archbishop had re-
ferred to the question iu the eathedrsl
y.I.terday, a li'orid reporter called un
his Greco iq the afternoon to get the
points thereof. He mid he thought it
would be better for the papers to wait
till a letter which he had written to a
oertain journal appeared or was refused
publication, before he gave his views.
but ea he had referred to it in the church,
mid as it .tad got abroad, he dtd not
tniud giving the substance of his position
which was :
Tris Orange Sentinel lets the cat out of
hag iu the following ingenuous manner :
"We have to congratulate Sir John Mac-
donald and Mr. Meredith upon the mag-
nificent response to their call for a con-
vention of the leading Conservatives of
Ontario ; and if -we may judge from the
numbers and enthusiasm of the vast
gathering, the fate of the Mowat -Fraser
Administration in Ontario is sealed.
Such a large representation of the lead-
ing Orangemen of this Province at the
convention points rgnificantly to the
strength of our brethren in Ontario poli-
tics. We trust our brethren will work
tooth and nail to secure the return of
every Orangeman who is nominated as
a candidate."
Weer is likely to be done with the
:unexpended portion of the $1,000 raised
to protest Mr. Cameron's election ? is
the question which now exercises the
mind of the public in this section. Let's
see. There is a local election to be held
some time within the next twelve
months, and wouldn't it be a capital idea
to make the remnant of the $1,000 into
an election fund ? It would be a nice
nest egg to start with, and might entice
more of the faithful to "lay" a little pile
beside it. Or will another meeting of
the Lib. -Cons. be called in the regular
place of meeting to make a " divvy " of
the unexpended portion of the $1,000 ?

ed weakness en the yi.'t of the Provin-

Tea misleading statements of the Tory
press regarding the territory awarded
Ontario by the arbitrators, but refused
her by Sir John A Macdonald, are the
results of either profound ignorance or
downright dishonesty. They have
described the disputed territory as a
heap of rocks, sterile and worthless.
The Rat Portage Progress says that "for
fifty miles east' of Winnipeg, and around
Selkirk there is some of the best agricul-
tural land in the Province, while in the
Rainy River District, nearly the heart
of the disputed territory. the grain and
root products are infinitely superior to
anything raised in Ontario. ' As, fur
timber, the Progress says that within the objectionable verses. There were

That one of the ex roes conditions un
which he had allowed St. Michael's Col-

Toronto were that the text•boks were
not to be offensive to Catholics.
His Grace spoke of the apparent pol-
itical animus shown by both '.he Globe
and Mail in dealing with this question
and • similar one, the book seizure.
Though he did not so inform the report-
er, yet the Word learned elsewhere that
the paper referred to by his grace above
was the Moil, and that he had written a
letter to that journal, taking issue with
it. It was learned on the same good
authority that the archbishop had said
he was not going to let the Minister of
Education be attacked over his shoul-
ders, and therefore he had written to
the Mail; showing that Marmiun was of-
fensive to Catholics, and this letter
ought to appear in the Mail to -day.
There is no doubt this is the objection
to the book, and the archbishop is going
to defend this position. The Globe tried
to prove that the immorality in itself
was the objection.
THR ORJECTIONAL PASSAGES.
The archbishop, by the way, was at-
tired in a purple robe, and when the re-
porter asked about the ubjectionsl pas-
sages, he produced a purple automatic
pencil and Gage's annotated edition of
the book, in which he had carefully

of the protesters to lighten the weight
of the Tory defeat in,Wost Huron.
P.4 t; TIZA N ASSESSORS.
A public official should be an up-
right than. He should not only know
his duty, but do it in an honora`o1e way,
and independent of party bias or per-
sonal feeling. Perhaps one of the most
important offices in connection with
municipal work is the position of assess-
or, and if a careful, conscientious man is
required in any municipal office he is
certainly needed in the assessor. it is
for him to do justice to the ratepayer as
as well as to the municipality, and if
through ignorance or partizanship he is
derelict in his duty' the individual as
as well as the corporation is likely to suf-
fer.
During the past few weeks we have
had occasion t.. watch the proceedings in
the C curt of final revision for the voter'
but of the township of Goderich, and we
are bound to confess that, in our judg-
mert, flagrant violations of section
20 of the Filters List Act have been
committed by the - •r. The section
reeds as follows : -- `

are now. And we will wager a new hat
it will not be any better pleased after
the Provincial election it now craves for

HERE is the result of Goderich Town-
ship Court of Revision in a nutshell:
The Conservatives took off 2 and pint on
2, The Reformers took off 35 and put
on 15. Net gain for the Reformers, 46.
THE Marmion case seems to be a blunder
all around; but the Mail is the greatest
blunderer in the affair. It makes the
matter a pretext for the vilest abuse of
Mr. Crooks personally, and the most
shameful misrepresentations as to the re-
lation teachers bear to the Educational
Department. Properly handled, the
Conservatives could have used the Mar-
mion affair with acertain degree of force
against the Minister. The .tail
took a wrong position, and its method
of warfare has destroyed any advantage
offered by its opponents. Archbishop

THE -Moil dill harps upon the license
question, and day by day attempts to
show that it is not in the interests of
Ontario that the Crooks' Act should re-
main .on the statute book. Other bodies
beside the Mail editors have been look-
ing into the question and the following
will show that the Act, if not perfect, is
the best known of at present, and is en-
dorsed by right-thinking sten. The
Committee en Temperance reported to
the General Methodist Conference at
Harjilton that ''though they could not
accept as abselutely righteous any license
law, they must regard the Cr.>,oki Act
as the best inettumer,t fur the suppress-
ion of intemperance that thelprovince of
Ontario has ever had, and they recom-
mend the people to use their votes and

The intimation given by the Winnipeg
Tine.,. that out of nearly three hundred
colonization companies formed for the
pas of taking up large tracts of land
in toe North-west only seventeen were
abb to m"et their payments, will put s
damper on that sort of '.peculation.
Speculation it was, no doubt, as those
who went into these colonization com-
panies did so, not with the intention of
digging drains and holding the plough,
but of selling the lands to settlers and
making a good percentage un the sales.
Doubtless the Pacific Syndicate has ex-
erted some influence in having the col-
onization companies squeezed out.
There were so many colonization coma
paniee, and they had taken up so much
land, that the Syndicate was threatened
