We say this is the abject in name. What is it in fact? Bow many of the high class young fanners are making the rich soil of South Huron grow two blades of wheat or grass where one grew before? But we know where they are to be found. Bookkeepers, agents, dealerst starving in little shops tramping our highways. their knowledge for which the province pays its tens of thousands rendered useless by the fact that the Agricultur- al College at Guelph is filled with men having the instincts of the office seeker, and salary absorber of the offiee, and not that of the farmer. Mr, Thomas Shaw who now stands in the forefront .elf his profession in a foreign land told a;,few years ago a tale that the farmer taxpayer should lay to heart, Electors of South Huron, Mr. Either will change all that and Mr McLean continue it. For whom will you vote? Ask. Mr. Hodgins, candidate for East Middlesex, to tell yea his story of the old ram, sold because be was no good, and sold for but little, but bought by a good Liber- al and sold by him for a large stun, be- cause the said Liberal had a party claim and the Professor of rams at Guelph was either too ignorant or too corrupt to prevent the bargain going through.

Is it any wonder that the col- lege costs about 827,000 per year more than its revenue to run it; and the Farm ineluding the dairy, poultry ex- perimental plots and feeding, garden, orchard, lawn, etc,, about $28,000 more than its yearly revenue to keep it going: Surely the thing has arrived when Ontario's best interests demand a change. MR. MOIVAT IN 1886. Speaking at a meeting in Toronto on. the 18th of December 1886 just prior to the provincial elections of that year Sir Oliver Mowat is quoted in the Globe of the 20th as follows: -- "The occasion is one in which Con- servatives and Reformers should all unite in order that there may be here in Ontario a government independent of the government at Ottawa. Conserve tives may prefer, Iknow a great many of them do, Sir John Macdonald and his policy to Edward. Blake and his policy. I am sorry they do. If they had more light I. am sure they would not, and a great many Conservatives are discover ing that, and are acting accordie ly, but even those Conservatives who be- lieve in the policy of Sir John Macdon ald and prefer the present Dominion Government to any other, may still unite at this crime in supporting an iu- dependent Government here, because: there are great matters with which we have to deal which absolutely require, for the sake of Ontario's interests that the Provincial Government should be entirely independent of the govere- ment at Ottawa. Now there are a va riety of cases by which I might the illus- trate manner inner iu which the Domin' ion Government have dealt with the Provinces, and show the absolute ne cessity in the interests of this Province that there should be an independent Government here uuder no obligations to Sir John Macdonald and who have a. P. oliey entirely Provincial in regard to the territory and Provincial rights•" How does the above advice suit On tario Liberals to -day? i\'e comine:t 1. it to them and wotitd say further, if you prefer Sir Wilfred Laurier's l,ov- ernment to that of the Conservative party art r you may still unite in support ing an independent government at To ronto under Mr. Whitney's leadership. And farther y ou will find that such an administration will serve Ontario's bee` Mr. D. M. McPherson the Grit Patron member in the legislature for Glengar• ry found considerable fault with the. „goiernment of the Ontario Agricultur- al College and Farm during last session of the House. His remarks and those of others called forth a reply from Pres ident dills in which he says:— " I hope it does not follow from this that our bookkeeping is defective or that we have need of a special account- . t toput things in proper shape." 5 „To this s=pecial pleading Mr. McPhor- snore than it gave to the people. 1696.0—Total license revert tie 8615,290 Allowed to municipalities.. ,267,072 Taken by the Gavernnheet for itself and its officers , 54$.218 It will be observed that whereas in 1876 tha municipalities wore allowed $1.24,000 more than the province eeioed, its 1896 the Government took 871,000 snore than was. allowed to the, people. Much boasting is iudulged in by the members of the Ontario governhnvut over their alleged honesty in dealing with pubilc affairs, While no one eharges them with personal dishonesty or steatitic from the treasury to enrich thewselve$ every day sees charges made aigainat them of improper, wash' fel, and reckless oxpe»ditures of pub lie, monies, and of deceiving, the people by false statements of the financial pc. virion of the province. Lie that is un- faithful is small things would be un- faithful in large things likewise. Does anyone believe that air. Hardlis a whit more honest than J. Israel Tarte? A. minister who would go into a constit- uency during the heat of a political campaiga and make a speech calculat ed to bribe the entire electorate of the riding as Mr. Hardy did at Owen Sound a year ago is as corrupt as the man who buys a railway with govern- ment funds at many times its real val- ue, to put money into the pocket of a political friend to whom it is indebted for favors. If either of the offenders deserves to he more summarily dealt with and more severely punished it is the Premier of Ontario because he makes so much louder professions of honesty. The moral sense of the com- munity was rudely shocked by Mr. Hardy's flagrant speech. Mr. Hardy's political alliance with Mr. Tarte to run the coming elections in this province means rampant corrupt- ion and wholesale bribery. Already the wires are being laid and public works ars promised where the expendi- ture of money will do most good to government candidates. It bodes ill for Ontario when Tarte and Hardy hunt in couples.'. 'rile Latest News in Brief. The New Bruns:nick Legislatatte opened Thursday. Mr. Ca, M.
