To the prohibitionists Sir Oliver made
promise to do certain things under
•certain circumstances. He said that
he would introduce a prohibitor law, if
he were premier. Ile possibly 'used
the words, "If I am premier," Sir Oli-
ver is getting old. Of tate he has been
-subjected to much worry. It is an
open secret that he is getting tired of
the active life he has left so long, and
that it is his desire to retire, that he
may rest during the few years that re-
main to him, But the Ontario govern-
ment, without Sir Oliver, whould have
no chance whatever of success at the
polis. The people would not vote for
the wicked partners. And it became
necessary for Sir Oliver to keep the
field during the campaign, that he
;might attract the votes of those who
have been humbugged by his hypo-
'eritical pretenses of honesty and by his
dishonest pretense of ignorance of the
things his wicked partners had been
=doing.
112owat's concessions to the seperate
school people brought the P.P.A. a-
gainst him, His neglect of the farm-
.ers and their interest brought the P. I.
against him, and things looked exceed-
ingly blue. The prohibitionists seized
upon their opportunity to make their
demand. Sir Oliver had been up in
Bruce in an endeavor to kill the Pat-
rons, and his assistants had been in
East Lambton in an endeavor to kill
.the P.P.A. In both instances the fail-
ure to kill was strikingly conspicuous.
He therefore could not afford to antag-
onize the prohibitionists, and he agreed
to their demand, with the proviso, "If I
•am Premier."
3ttt is he to be premie; . c
The Brant-
ford Expositor, a well -posted Grit org-
.an, under the immediate control of
MMowat's wickedest partner, Mr. Hardy,
contained on Saturday this significant
paragraph:
In all human probability, Arthur S.
'Hardy will be the next premier of On•
aario, and as such be in a positiots to do
,even more for South Brant than he has
sayer done in the past Can this con-
stitue:.cy afford to reject him now and
.give his seat hi the Legislature to J.
E. Hopkins ?
South i3raut cannot afford to dismiss
.A. S. Hardy.
s So that is the programme, is it ?
Arthur Sturgis Hardy is to succeed
Oliver Mowat as premier! The author
of Evidences of Christianity to be sue
seeded by a patron of the race course!
'The pious Mowat, wile doesn't know a
jackpot from a full hand, to be sue
ceeded by an export! The acme of
.honesty to be succeeded by his very
wickedest partner. Ross pretends to
be pious; Tuberculosis Dryden holds a
pew in church Harcourt pulls a long
face on Sunday; even Gibson makes a
bluff at goodness,between elections. But
Hardy! The brazen Hardy! Hardy,
the man wnom no Ontario man could
trust near the government's strong
box! Hardy, a man whom even the
political preacher of Kingston would
tremble to see near the treasury!
But there's no occasion for alarm.
The man who is to succeed Oliver Mow -
as premier is not on his side of the
house.—Spectator.
REASONS FOR RETURNING
:MEREDITH TO POWER.
In the present divided state of pub-
lic opinion. -according to which we
find candidates for provincial honors
,claiming to be elected as Conservatives
ear Independents, or Reformers, or P. P.
A's, or Patrons of Industry,—it is well
for the electorate of Ontario to choose
decidedly between the two great par
ties -one of whom must 'role—and to
avoid all needless complications on side
issues. " There is no sense in splitting
votes, or in shirking the true issue as
between progressive Consert•atiyes and
so-called Reformers, who in the words
• .of Hon Edward ;hake 'have nothing
to reform," .Let it be distinctly under
stood that' there are certain great lead-
ing issues before the electorate of this
province, --and that whatever may be
the result of the elections on the 26th
of June, so fat as individual candidates
are concerned, the future interests of
Ontario will be managed by one or oth-
er two leadingparties in pro -
1 ft e
0
P
politics. We would therefore
trize for the benefit of our read -
They are as follows:
1. 'Conservatives should support Mr.
Meredith and his followers becauseof
his loyalty to British institutions.
2. Protestants and P, P, A. men
should support Meredith and his party
because of his staunch adherence to
the principles of the Reformation.
5. Roman Catholics ought to support
Meredith because he advocates equal.
rights and privileges to all subjects of
the Crown, and because his policy is
to exclude none from office on account.
of their religious tenets.
4, Patrons of Industry should sup
port Meredith because he is in favor of
the people's rights and of economical
government.
5. Temperance nien should support
Meredith because he is to be trusted as
the friend of Temperance reform, and
will not play fast and loose between
prohibitionists and liquor dealers,
6. All well-wishers of Ontario ought
to support Meredith because he is in
favor of conserving the timber limits,
and developing the mines and Minera'
and husbanding other resources of the
Province—and because he will inaug-
urate a system of economy and reform
in every department of the civil ser-
vice.
7. The great body of the electorate
should support Meredith, because even
in Opposition he has initated much of
the best legislation passed by the On-
tario Assembly,
Such a political leader as Mr. Mere-
dith—who has a clean record, end is a
man of unblemished reputation, and
not a "hungry adventurer for office,'
but an unflinching advocate of the
people's rights—is the man that Ontario
sorely needs after the long years of
mismanagement and extrayagant ex-
penditure of the public resources.

Howick: A calf haying its throat
half cut and feeding leisurely in a field
near a bush, was found the other day
by a young man in Howick, The
young roan"who found it took pity on
the calf and brought it with same diffi-
culty to a neighboring barn, where 11
was cared for and is now doing well.
The news was circulated but no owner
was found until it was known it was
in a thriving condition. The owner
thought the calf would never pay for

day he took it oet to the woods, cut its
throat, and left it for dead.

ated bicycle. Mr. Pyper saw that, the
horse seemed frightened and drew as
far to the side of the road as possible.
As the horse still refused to pass, he
dismounted, when the beast suddenly
wheeled about, upsetting the vehicle
and throwing .itself. The occupants
of the buggy wore thrown out and Mrs
Simpson fell heavily, dislocating her
shoulder. The horse scrambled up and
ran some distance before being caught
slightly damaging the buggy.
Seaforth, June 1: A rousing meeting
of the supporters of Mr Weismillor in
this town was held. in the Crupul hull
this evening. It is admitted that a
large Conservative vote in this toivn
insures Mr. Weismiller's election, and
the numbers and enthusiasm of those;
present surprised even the most san
guiue of the Conservative workers,and
leaves no doubt of Conservative suc-
cess. Moved by J. S. Roberts, seconded
by Dr. Bethune, "That this meeting,
being fully satisfied that Mr. D. Weis -
miller, the Liberal -Conservative candi-
date of South Huron, is a fit and prop
er person to carry the Conservative
standard to victory, hereby pledges
him our hearty and undivided sup-
port." Carried unanimously.

place on the Queen's Birthday at
Thorndale Farm, the residence of Mr.

marriage to Mr. Wm. Pope, of London,
the ceremony being performed by Rev.
Mr. Walker, and witnessed by a large
number of the relatiyes and friends of
the contracting parties. Miss Susie,
sister of the bride, acted as bridesinaid,
while the groomsman was Mr. Samuel
P. pe, blether of the groom. Both bride
and bridesmaid were very handsomely
dressed, and the prevents were both
numerous and costly, showing the es
teem in which the bride is held. After
the ceremony the company sat down to
a splendid spread, which was fully en.
joye'l. The young couple have the
best wishes of all fora long and happy"
life.
London, June 1: A serious affair
occurred at Labatt's brewery late ' yl s=
terday afternoon. An employee named
Tatl'e, a Roman Catholic, is alleged to
Kaye frequently threatened to take the
life of a fellow -employe,' John Carson,
of'43 Askin street, who is an Orange-
man.' Caron is a quietand industri-
ous roan, and has avoided Taffe as far
as possible, but they were frequently
thrown together, and Taffe is alleged
to have 1081 110 opportunity of evincing
his hatred of Carson, who -is a sinaller
man. At the time mentioned the five
men were in the cellar at the brewery;
and Carson had occasion to tell Tel%
of some work ho was expected to do.
Carson remembers nothing of what fell-
lowed,except that he was struck on the'
head With something. Assistance soon
arrived and a doctor wag called. He
found Carson unconscious and suffer
ing from a severe cut on the side of
the head, The doctor says that the cut
was made by some sharp 'instrument,
and could not have been made by the
fall on this brick floor, Had the blow
been inflicted an inch lower the doctor
believes Carson would haye been in
stantly killed. The wounded man has
bean removed to itis hone and is rest-
ing easily, though suffering from the
cut, "vhieh required the.use of several
stitches to close.. No action has yet
been taken to in esta a aro the matter.
