The Tory convention to choose a candidate to contest Rest [Loon will be held on Dee. 10th. There is a nice .drop of aspirants, but Jouw BUTLsk, of this tows, is BIaa11 RIl11Am's man, and the convention is only called to- gether to register the decree. The political fight in North On tario promisee to be a hot one, and FRANK OILLES/IR, the Liberal candi date, gives evidence of being a first class man. Should North Ontario go against the Government, this country will witness a slide in politics such as has not been seen since the Tory party slipped on the Pacific Scandal banana peel in 1873. The Hamilton Times recently published a biographical sketch of Menet".

All that is neer sary to state is that he never was,and is not now, notes) for his truthfulness of statement or plumb demeanor Since The Sun became the official or gan of the Patrons in Ontario, Mr. WRIGLtr hes developed into a free lance, and from having been a toiling and moiling timeserver in • London newspaper of&e, has taken on the air of a dictator to political parties', and assumed the functions of guide and philosopher to newspaper men in par- ticular. if Mr. WKIOLRY merely in dulled in these little exhibitions of big-headledneas the politicians and newspaper men of this country could easily afford to laugh at his monkey- shines, ho when he undertakes to bolster up :lis statements with false hoods made out of whole cloth, and conceived only in the depths of an er ratite and irresponsible mind, then it is time to cry a halt. In his last ig- nite he published the following And in reformed, to this, (the vacant re si•trarshlp in West Huron), too, The Nun ban • word to say. Bemuse the editor of TNR SIGNAL was named in thegeoolomge as an applicant for that p'»ition, The San is referred to as "aping the airs of an author- ity in Wein Huron politics.- Very well why should it sot, more it was to The Sun that the editor came two months ago urging his claisss as an indepeoelent o•ndid.t• to euooesd Mr. Cohens, M PP., if the plum should i.e Rives to him • instead of to Mr. Mdi.11icuddy. The editor wanted the office, bat .f the member got the nf11oe be wasted to become ..amber. Now, we tell The Sun to its teeth that the above statement is •bsolotely and deliberately fate, and the man who wrote it know* it to Ile false, and published it with the full knowledge of the facta. What are the facts? On Wednesday of the second week of the industrial Pair, at Toronto, in Sep- tember last, the editor of Tien SUM at. and a friend from Godderieh attended, and having occasion to separate, agreed to meet it, front of the Patron's tent, as there wore tome 10,000 or 80,- 00[) persona on the eroond and some specific point where the emwd wasn't leerre would prove the haat place of meeting. At the specified time, '210 P.m., the friend referred to and his wife met the editor of TH1 BI.irAL therm, and The Sun, as Mr. WIIOL*y delights to tall himself, was asked if the lady could 1» accommodated with a chair in the shade of the tent while the Galerieh teen went to attend to a matter of business The Sue was please'/1 to he of service, and smiled upon all most benignly.

Continuing, ht• stated that they wanted a ...atoll date lustily in East Huron as they were short of timber, Lied asked if the editor of Tug Sl. NAI. could not be in diesel to rut as an independent Lib- eral, opposed to the present (Govern relent on one plank only theapuoint- ment of members to otbccs whit h be- came vacant while they still sat in the House. He said that there were thousands of the best Liberals in the country who opposed the practice of appointing members tt, other, and that in East Huron, a popular man, who could take care of himself on the plat- form, running as an independent Lib- eral and supporting the Government on every plank of (their policv, except the one named, would sweep the rid ing, if hacked by the Patr3n vote, which The Sun could secure to him, as, remarked that ori of light, " what we at this and say, goes, so far as the Patrons are concerned." In the event of being elected, the Govern- ment could be given • strong support at the start and on every is- sue until the question of appointments came ap, and then there was tc be a cleavage. The Patrons would bring the matter up, as they were short of griev- ances against the Government, and as they would be supported by the Tor- ies to a man, there would be a solid phalanx against the Administration, which could be stampeded if one of its acknowledged supporters bolted at a critical moment. The fact is, said M r' W RIeiLiT, we are short of men. Mr HAvcor'K is a great man himself, but he haft a lot of poor stuff behind him . there are one or two ordinarily fair men with him, but the remain der don't amount to shucks, and have net yet got over the surprise they ex perienced when they found themselves elected to the Legislature. Well, said he, we want to get some men of brains and education to take the strain off poor I;AYWr'K, for he is worked to death, and we would like to see you in the House, for 1 know you would act independently in the matter. We would prefer to have you join the Order, but even if you didn't, and ssw fit to run as an Independent, you could depend on our support. One of our candi- dates in your *aunty is a manufac. turer, and you could join just as he did. On is'iog informed that the tempt- ing offer eould not be entertained un- der any consideration, The Sun, which is Mr. Wtiotsy'a other name,exprew- ed his deep regret, but stated that if the constituency were opened he would get the Patrons to put T. 0. Cutting, of Middlesex, in the field for candi- date, for, ..aid he, HATCOC[ is a noble fellow and must have assistance from men of brains sueh as Tom undoubted- ly i., instead of having at his back a rayl -tag -anal ob ail following which at present, unfortunately for the cause, lines up behind) him. That is the whole story upon which The Nun builds its little Action about the editor of Tas Seoul. and the Haat Huron candidature. The canard has been published to bolster up the status of A. W. WRIGHT, a socialist writer on The Sun, who was recently appointed to the ofFioe of commission er to enquire into the sw.atsng system by the Dominion Government, and whose exaltation was commented on in the columns of Tat SIGNAL. 0. a future ayssioe we may be constrained to refer to the "loyalty" of The Hun (Mr Water -may) and the ex• eentive of the Patron oresideetion,and show to the country at large the pro pas/soda whir& they ars prepared to put behrw the people.
