P°OPl 1,Ib11T \WANTxI.. A certain independent
1'onservative journal a few weeks since said
of Premier Abbott no doubt referring to
ha connection with the Pacific scandal
that .. the biggest bo oiler in Canada stands
very near the throne." in a more recent
issue the sante paper herds a subscription
list for 61,000 to build • numument to Sir
John and in the most eulogstic terns sup.
ports the deceased C'hieftain's oft quoted
statement that "his hands were clean .'
As we have always been led to believe that
the late Premier was by far the " bigger
boodler " of the two, and his ctonnectton
with the Pacific scandal much more dis-
honorable, there two statements seem to
as somewhat incongruous. the journal al-
luded to has, no doubt, like several of the
Reform papers of this a.untry, rune
superstitious fears about disregarding the
Latin injunction, "De manus nil nisi
bottom.- The gootl,sound, practical common
sense displayed by Tu i. S i. N t t in its obituary
notice, and its subsequent remarks about
the erection of a monument should receive
from Sir .John's admirers a more kindly
:mace than the nauseating trash which filled
the columns of not only the Conservative
preys but many Liberal paper* as well.
Several of the latter journals, we notice,
hsye wiped the croc"tile tears out of their
eyes some time since. They no doubt be•

stupid they looked.

HEAT 'RAPE$ CANADIAN Ua`4TISy.
Dundee iScotlandl Advertiser :- Un-
suspecting observers imagined that the high
imperial issue whether Canada should go in-
to partnership with the fisted States or re-
main a constituent part of the British
Empire occupied the minds of the leaden in
the recent general election. When Sir John
Maedorsld proclaimed to the -•(:anadiaas
that he was horn a Briton and meant to die
i. loyal subject 11f the Queen, it was assumed
that he was giving utterance to the ruling
passion of the boding Conservative states-
man
tatsIran of the Dominion. The revelations of
the last week or two go far to doespate the
assumption that pnlitital opinion is the pot
ent factor in Canadian politics. In the light
of these revelations one begins to suspect
that it a not tree trade,or unrestricted reci-
procity, or imperialism that is shaping the
destines of British North America, bet
the long purse of the I:overnment contract-
or. Enough has heen proved before the
Committee on Elections and Privileges
which has bees sitting at Ottawa for some
time t0 prove that crrruption has attacked
the very heart of the Canadian poetical
system.
