which hisfriends so gamely rolled
up for hitt tin Tuesday last. Our
Tory- friends will endeavor to Con-
tra A the i GS by which he has
beau rettattett with the 414 by
which he defeated Mr. Pat. Kelly
in 1579, but last week we allowed
eonalusivoly that Kelly- was only
put up by the Contervatitc party
in 1879 w as to be•knocked down,
and the beggarly vote which be
polled on that occasion should- not
be taken a: the standard of the
Opposition candidate whorl his
friends delight to honor 1,y, desig-
natinghim"theleading lawyerofhis
section." When C01. Ross ran iu
1875, he was opposed by Mr. Dav-,
icon, the present senior partner of
Mr. Johnston. The contest on
that occasion 4(a. a fair test of tate
relative strength of political par-
ties, and Col. Ross was returned
by 89 of a majority. Mr. John-
ston, who is so :lover a young
man, you know. has not only not
decreased tlk majority against Mr.
Davison. but has actually allowed
it to increase. Mr. Johnston be-
lieved lie would be returned for
West Huron : Mr. Johnston i.; a
sadder, and we hope a wiser :Ilan.

John O'Ionohue, the talented (f)
Senator,wbo came all the way
frown Ottawa to add another lus-
trous act. to his past political per-
furnlaneesby placingAsllfield under
the Toto' banner, yds given to un-
derstand that despite his powers
of oratory, his fervid imagination,
bis powerful acclamation, and his
Self-styled historical reputation, it
was quite possible for hitt to en-
gage to perforin an act, and yet
fail to carry out the undertaking.
When the Hon. John O'Donobue
seasee the official returns fro►n West
Huron, and eagerly scans 'the•Ash-
tield figures, we are satisfied the
pompous Senator will be forced to
admit that although he attetnpted
to plant and to water the town,
-ship, the increase failed to come
forth. The Opposition candidate
himself was not satisfied with the
result of the worthy Senator's ef-
forts, but was constrained) to make
a final appeal to Ashfield on the
night before the election. Those
who were there know the upshot,
and the vote Of the township
proves beyond a peradventure that
the electors were so impressed with
the extreme solicitude for their
interest expressed by him, that
they feared to trust hint out of
the county as their representative.
We congratulate the Ashfield elec-
tors on their good work done on
the 27th. They have stuck to the
right as leen should, and in con-
clusion we. cannot but repeat, and
repeat right heartily, "Well done,

By the latest returns from Senth Hu-

elected by 83 of a majority, with three
polling places to hear from which will
further augment that figure. The ins-

should be, and we are of opinion the

EAST HURON.
East Huron has held to its redprd as a
Reform riding. Of all the Hurons the
East riding was deemed the doubtful
one. Mr. Gibson's majority in 1879
was only 56, and as the' majority from
the township of McKillop on that occa-
sion was 60, it was thought that the
placing of a McKillop plan in the field
against Mr. Gibson would be successful
in oustini: that gentlemen. Mr. Thom.
Hays, formerly reeve •.f McKillop, and
a personally popular man in that neigh -
Nolo was on that account netninated
to contest the riding aeainst Mr. Gib-
son. He did so en the 27th. and suc-
ceedt d in overturning the adverse tote
of 60 and tabling 147 in his favor in
McKillop. But although ho made this
wonderful chance in his ew•n township
Mr. flays " didn't run worth a cent " in
any of the other municipalities. and
taken in all, his candidature was not any
stronger than that of Dr. Holmes in
1879. We congratulate our old friend,
"Honest. Tom;' Gipson on the renewal !'ort:an•!,
more think a dozen at the outside. The •
verdict is that Mowat must nut go. but 1
it is also one of enceuragemrnt to the i
cu11servatives. For, front being a weak,
a ridiculed and a discredited mill rity, 1
they will put 00 the fern, ,of a cuulpaet,
strong and rigorous oppattien, which,
if well handled, ought to have the hest
of prospects in the next election.
lu the late legislature, Mr. Mowat had
often a majority of 28 : now, as far u
heard frnn, the figures are: Govern-
ment 48, opposition 38, a difference of
10, with Muskoka and Algoma to heal
from. Front 28 to 10, or even to 12, is 1
a
gnlat reduction.
But Mr. llfowat's maj,.rity, reduced!
as it is, is a vindication of his stand en I

On the other hand, his reduced major-
ity is a further preef of the vitality of
Sir John Mavdenald as a political power
in this country. For it was the premier
of Canada who fought against the pre-
mier of Ontario, and the suede "f attack
was such that he needy dislodged his
enemy, though he was on the wrong side
of the questions at issue: Only a man of
remarkable p.wer as a peliticinu , could
have induced 40 many of the people "f
Outari, to take an nnpateiotic stand re-
ga.ding the i euud'try •,f their own pr.-
