McGillicuddy, formerly mo- prietor of this paper, sod later mating - Ing editor of The Calgary Daily News, has sprung into the limelight at Ot- taws. A few day's ago The Toronto Telegram published certain statement. intended to reflect upon one of the \Vestey n members of the Dominion 4iovetnment. It has since developed that this Minister is Hon. Fiauk Oliver. Minister of the interior. and The Telegram's informant is Mr. Mc- Gillicuddy. Sums of 1'.0.000 and $19,- 000 *aid to have been paid into the Imperial Bank at Edmonton to the credit of Mr. Oliver figure in the mat- ter. and the insinuation is that these sums were corruptly received in con- nection with a land grant to the Can- adian Northern Railway. Mr. M-Gi(- licuddy wrote the Premier,Sir Wilfrid Laurier, March 'lard last. stating his belief that Mr. Oliver was "a grafter and a boodle.' and offering to submit the evidence to Sir Wilfrid. The bit- ter gave Mr. McGillicuddy several interviews and finally- told him that be (the Premier) was not shaken in his belief in the honesty of his colleague and that he would stand by him. Mr. McGillicuddy- subsequently, it appear:., put his case in the hands of The Tor- onto Telegram. The mutter has been taken up in Parliament, and Mr. Oliver bas expressed his desire for the fullest investigation ot the circum- stances. LOCAL TOPICS' IN BRIEF.
