Methoilst 'burst' MO Maeda, MAYOR CAMERON THE MAN At the largest and most repre- sentative Liberal convention ever held in West Huron, Mayor CAME- RON, of Goderich, was chosed on Monday last to carry the Reform standard in the ensuing campaign. So far as ability, power of ex- pression and knowledge of the po- litical situation are concerned no better man could be chosen. Mayor CAMERON bas all the advantages that superior education and a long legal experience can give; he has also run the municipal gamut from town councillor to mayor of his native town, and this coupled with his first-class platform power should make him a strong candi- date. Mayor CAMERON has a strong following where he is best known, and the fact that at the last muni- cipal election the ratepayers of his native town, irrespective of poli- tics. unanimously endorsed him for mayor, proves that the wave of popularity is with him. Let every Liberal now get in line so that on the evening of elec- tion day West Huron will be found supporting Hon. G. W. Ross and a continuance of good government in Ontario. CANADIANS AT HARTS RIVEN THE news from South Africa is not of •cheering kind. Whet looks very muoh like a reveres to British arms is reported from Herta river, soil the sorrow of it is that Canada mounts the loss of • number of her sons. True, according to the despatches, the Canadians gave • good account of them• selves and showed how men can die teeing heavy odds, bur that is not compensation after all for the hears that mourn from one mad to the other of this broad Dominion, where RACHLL is weeping fur her children and will not be oomforted because they aro not. This terrible war, which was declared ended by proclamation more than • year ago, is .till doing rte woeful work. The War Department still continues to bungle, the Generals keep up the reo-rd for inoom• potence, and the inferior oMoers sod men aro eternally getting into every manner of trouble that geographical conditions are ow on to and Boer ingeneity can devise. Meantime the Empire is being bled white doth in men and treasure. 1t is • question if Kiio uLN,.R is any nearer the goal than was Ro,LuTS when he deluded the Bntish nation that the (all of Pretoria closed the campaign. Men and munitions aro stili pressed into service and the hurry call for four additional regiments of Canadians does not look as if the beginning of the end had been reached. What is really wanted is that some dip. lomat with beim; and heart -not • blood and iron machine such as Krrettstelo- shouln lea, sent to the scene of operations by the British Government, with power to act AS Right and Justice) should dictate, and endeavor to settle the matter at once and forever. Now that Cacti. RHODES has poee«1 away, there should be less difficulty in coming to an amicable settlement.
