HE WANTS AN EASY THING.
When the gerry.nandcr of Huron
was announced, it was at once seen
that an attempt was Irving tirade to
provide .t place for a curtain Wing -
ham man who, defeated in East
Huron, refused to place himself again
before the electors until he could have
a riding in which his chances of elec.
tion would be mune secure. Such an
attitude is not indicative of any great
degree of bravery or of desire to serve
the public: it is the attitude of a man
rather who desires public office only
when it is comfortable and convenient.
The riding of North—Huron was
"fixed" for A. 11. Musgrove, of Wing -
ham, and confirmation of this state-
ment is given. if any were ueeded, by
a conspicuous article in the last issue
of the Winghem Conservative organ,
wherein Mr. Musgrove is h onled as
tbo prospective Conservative candi-
date. The Advance publishes a por-
trait of Mr. Musgrove, and says, in
part :
"Naturally we are pow wore in-
terested in the Nottlt riding. com-
posed of Ashfield. Fast and West
Wawanoab, Monis. Turnberry, How -
ick. Wroxeter, Blyth, and the town of
Wingbaw. Tbc questinu at once be-
comes pertinent—'Who will lie the
liberal -Conservative candidate :''
Several tames have been mentioned.
but none of them- tweets with such
• general and popular endorsement as
that of A. 11. Musgrove, of 1Vittghaw.
"In the tiding as previously consti-
tuted, it. was difficult to select a suit-
able candidate, or induce that candi-
date to accept the nomination. Thine
difficulties do not nnw exist. No more
suitwble candidate could possibs be
etelecte.l than Mr. Musgrove, anti we
are pleased to be able to state that
rbonld he be the choice of the conven-
tion (of which there is little duppbt)
lie has decided to accept the numita-
tiom.
"Mr. Musgrove is at present prin.
cipal of Wingham public school. He
has a wide range of general knowl-
edge, and an intelligent grasp of the
public questions of the day that few,
men possess. He is of excellent
morel character. a good speaker and
popular with all classes. Ile would
make an exceptionally strong candi-
date, and an able represeutative. The
forthcoming convention will make a
mistake if the delegates peas by so
suitable a man, when he is tit their
service."
As to Mr. Musgtove's private char-
acter and his general capabilities, no
exception can be taken to what The
Advance says of hint ; hut it renwios
to be seen if the electors of North
Huron will allow any man to foist
himself upon them[ by means of a
manipulation of constituencies which
is alesolutely indefensible on public
grounds.
It is to be regretted that it man of
Mr. Musgrove's hitherto high .tand-
ing in the community should be will-
ing to place himself in the position of
a seeker after a gerrymandered seat.
THE BRITISH CABINET.
Sir Henry l'amphell-Hannerman,
whose health has been shattered by
the burdens of nffdee, has resigned Lite
Premiership of Great ilritain and is
succeeded by Herbert H. Asquith,
who wa..(haneellor of the Exchequer
in Campb.11-Hetnnerrnan's administra-
tion. Dor. Asquith is a wan of
great tureetnlne.., with a tuentel
equipment perhaps unequalled among
Britain's great, nm, but there, is a
general idea that in tectfulne.s. which
was one of "C. H.'s" sU'ng points, he
is somewhat delicient. The task of
gliding the political forces of the
world's greatest empire is at any rate
in the hands of a man of. splendid in-
tellect and dauntless spirit, in whom
worldwide h.iberalisut may yet find a
inagnifici•nt lender.
Some other important thangee in
the Cabinet. are made ler the reseal of
the change in the Premiership.

EDITORIAL NOTES.
No change in the 'mayoralty for two
weeks. This thing is getllog mon-
otonous.
What we want to know now is
whether Goderich is at the bead or
the toot of the new riding of Centre
Huron.
The anti -bonus hill hat been killed
in the Legislature, but that will not
prevent any municipality frau refus-
ing to grant bonuses.
The tiwo is approaching when the
$2,500 members of Parliament will
have to appear Istore the electors and
make Axone explanatioor.
Whitney said in the Legislature
that he considered Huron had been
divided as the people desired: An-
other slap at the Goderich Tories!
All that remains for the Goderich
Conservatives to do now, since the
gerrymander, is to invade 9oderich
tuwusbip and convert it to Toryism.
Mr. Whitney thinks the redistribu-
tion of Huron is all right. Evidently
Mr. Hanna didu't tell Mr. Whitney
what the Goderith deportation ..aid
about it.
When the Cuuservative candidate
in North Huron bears the returns on
election night from Lochalsh he will
wonder why Whitney put that part
of the county in his riding.
Perhaps the Conservatives had a
grievance in the old division of Bul-
led and Goderich townships : but
they didn't need to give us such an
awful jerk in rectifying the mistake.
The first step toward« the securing
of a great refserw is to show the need

Hugh Clark, M. 1'. P. for Comite
Bruce, stayed away from the House
when the vote was taken ou the
Preston amendment to tusks Tor-
onto's representation rix, instead of
eight members as proposal by the
Government. Mr. Clark had neither
the courage to vote against the
amendment nor to oppose the Gov-
ernment's proposal doubling the rep-
resentation of Toronto.
A Chinaman has just died in the
hospital at Los Angeles after seven
years of pain the result of his sucrsele-
ful effort to save the Ilves of the pas-
sengers on a Southern Pacific Railway
train. He turned .tu open switch into
place just as the train came aluog, and
a step of one of the coaches struck hitt
across the back, breaking his spine.
Surely such a deed as that should
raise the white woe's estivate of the
Chinese.
A Teacher writes to The Globe pro-
testing against the dillydallying of the
Department of Education with the
model school question. The writer
says that the uncertainty caused by
the Department's vacillation in the
matter is interfering with the work of
students. who du not know whether to
prepare for the model school or for the
normal school. Surely it is about
time the Minister of Education had his
mind made up what he is going to do
with the model schools.

EASTER THOUGHTS.
pROB.1IILY one of the hardest lessons for mortals to
learn is that "the things which are seen arc tem-
poral, hut the things which arc not seen are eternal."
This world and its interests are so near to us that.
like a dime held close before the eye. they shut out
greater things, and the things we desire and strive fur
are often very trivial compared with those we might
have. '-So, too, the things we most fe-ir are often those
we should fear- not at all. Not poverty. trouble, ur
death amour great foes. but selfishness, dishonor and
uselessness. 'Especially do we mortals fear death.
We see that it has power to quench tllc'.ight of the eye,
to dull the ear, to still the active limbs : we fail to
realize that it removes the veil that hind -red perfect
sight, that it shuts out the discords of earth that the
ear may catch heaven's melodies, and that it gives
free life to the spirit that had been fettered.
As Christ revealed to man the true worth of life,
so did He reveal to him the real powerlessness of
death. After His resurrection He seemed to take
especial pains to show His disciples that He was
unchanged by the great experience. His body was
mysteriously transformed, but . in everything that
smattered lie was the same. His remembrance of
their individual needs and griefs, His love for them,
His interest in everything that pertained to them, -
all were unchanged. Death had had no dominion
over Him. ' Therefore the Eastertide brings to us
always this message. Death is no longer to be
feared ; before the strength of love it is powerless.
Those who have followed the conquering Son of God
through the valley of the shadow are, like Him and
through Him, alive forevermore.

civil service commission shoukl be the

civil .service reform.

'rhe Whitney gerrymander disposes
