Any Port in a Storm Mr. McLean, the Liberal Candidete, accompanied by one of his supporters, vrho is an active worker for the cause of teinperance, has been engaged in mis- sionary work among the• Conservative 1Temperence Electors of Exeter and vicinity during the pasb few weeks, and eye are creditably informed that to certain persons he has heldhimself up as • a total abstainer for the past thirteen years, (though when cornered admitting to a trifling deviation from those prin- • ciples) while to others when the quest- ion of Prohibition is asked, he would • reply like unto hie venerable leader, Sir Oliver, that the matter was now be- fore the dourts, and if the Courts de • cided that the Ontario Government could pass a prohibitozy law, he would support Mr. Mowat, Now, we Would warn our Conservative friends in South Euron, especially those of the village of Exeter, not to be • hoodwinked into voting for Mr.11ikLean on the strength of anythinghe may • say as to his temperance principles, nor be deceived by the temperance candid- ate dodge thatirs being worked to secure him the solid temperance -vote. This is only a red herring drawn across the toxic. Mr, Mclean is not. the nominee of any temperance convention or society, but the nominee of a political convent- ion, who, we are bound to say, never •thought of the question; he was brought mit as an out and out supporter of the • Government of Sir Oliver Mowat, eehich • he is solemnly pledged to support. He has been before the electors of South Huron since last November or December, and although the owner of the leading Reform Journal in his con- stituency, during these months has carefully remained giant en the great temperance queetion, not even printing one word in condenination of his party who in a boby at the last and previous Sessions of the Legislature; voted down the lefarter Bili, the only temperance legislation introduced -and that by one of Mr. Meredith's supporters; but just atthe present juncture when he finds himself and the Government on very • slippery grounds, he quietly bedecks himself with the mantle of temperance inlocalities where the question is a popular one, entirely disclaiming it in quarters where its advocacy might work to his disadvantage. He is reputed as saying, that, having sifted the Prohibit- ion questionto the bottom, he fuids •nothing in it. Such are the two faced tactics employed to seek the confidence of the electorate. Mr. McLean, like Sir Oliver, is bound to gain his desired haven by skilfully employing the com- bined vote of the temperance and liquor parties, carrying in his pocket, as he admits, questions submitted by the hotel keepers. There is not a Conservative temper- ance elector in South Huron, who does not wall remember the active part this new rbpostle of temperance took in the • election of 1886, the period • of the Scott Act, in stumping the County in direct and bitter opposition to the then temperance mediae* Mr, James Swenerton. He was on every hustings and together with his abuse of Mr, Swenerton, claimed insincerity on the part of the temperanee people, notwith- sta.nding that he must have known a round robin had been signed by both Reform and Conservative temperance electors:to vote only fors Temperance man. • A letter was received later on by the Preaident of the Scott Aet Assomation in Exeter, from Sir Oliver Mowatf re - queering the allineme not to bring out a temperance candidate, • but a solid supporter of the Reform Government, end to tins bidding, no dotibt, can be attributed the right -about Vybeel of the Reform temperance element. Thus wore teinperanee principles cast to the four winds, and as far as Ur. MoLeen was coimerned it was politics first, last and always. So win it •be if he is elected. to the Legislature. tnlike Mr. McLean, Mr. Swenerton was not afreid to ennounce his convietiont on every platform. Mrs McLean, mewed him of havieg Dime Ushers e. gime ef ale, and wee in consequence -unworthy of tho VD ppor t of the temperance people, Mr, McLeeo baa admitted the tome crime react Aate, mid why i$ he entitled to the cnnfidence of the tem- perance electors/ Time are faots • worthy of the Ono/Aeration of the temperanee people, and while tempers an'* is a high and nobleahn, we despise tiny under -handed. attempts to gain petiioal, preference by draggiag the cause through the mud to accomplish the desired elide. We would therefore ask every Conservative Temperance voter and thosediffering from Sir Oliver Alowat on the political q,usestions of the day, to close up the ranks and go oot on the 20th and vote for Mr. D. Wei - miller, vrho will do as much to bring about Prohibition sits Mr. McLean, and 'who is pledged to support the many desired Reforms adyocated by Mr. W. R. Meredith, Sincethe above was put in type, the temperance people submitted questions to the candidates, at the nomination in Henaall, Tuesday. Mr. McLean, who has all along made strong professions at first refined. to answer the question, but being urged. by the deputation, in a Yery equivocal manner ansvrered two of them quite unsatisfactorily, however to the spokesman of the deputation, Mr. Weismiller was also given the questions , and he answered. them in about the same strain aa Ur. McLean, the result of the meeting being that both men are now on sequel footing as regards beiag entitled to the temperance vote. %NMI/ .N AND COMMENTS Is it true that Sir Oliver Mowat ask- • ed. Mr. Lays to recommend his son for the most lucrative office in the Pro- vince? These queetions the people of Ontario desire to see answered and answered quick. We all know whet Sir Oliver Mosvet's present explanation of the appointment of his son ill -that • it was forced upon him by the unani- mous wish of his supporters. But, if Mr. Leys' atory is correct, Sir Oliver not say committed one of the moat flagrant acts of nepotism in the first place, but falsified the recoil in ex- plaining it in the second place. The people of Ontario, therefore, at we have already said, demand an answer to the question. Is Mr. Keys' story • true? it appears in another column. x x The following qualifications are re- quired in order to be able to vote at the pending election: Every male per- son whose name appeara on. the certi- fied list of voters, provided he can the the oath required, that he is a British subjece of full age of 21 years, resident in Ontario for twelve- months, and resident in the municipality in the list of -which his name is entered at the time of such. entry and has since con- tinuously resided and at the time of the. election resides in the electoral district, and he has not voted at the • election and has not received or given anything •to induce Mint° vote or to induce any other person to vote or to refrain from voting. x x Before another issue of the Trues the elections will have • passed. la no previous provincial election have the prospects of Mr. Meredith's party been within hailing distance of the prospects in this election'and from every direction come reports that in- dicate a sure and certain triumph at the polls. Good. judges predict a Waterloo for the Mowat party resemb- ling that which decimated the Reform party in the Dominion in 1878. The very best that cautious judges allow may happen for the Mowat Government .is that no party may have a str&ght majority in the Legislature made up of its own following. Sea a situation would throw Sir Oliver upon the teuder mercies of the Patrons and other in- dependents for his political existence, and could done more than give a brief respite from the evil hour ot dissolut- ion. Li any case a majority of his own following is out of the questiou in the next Legislathre. The campaign is being conducted with consummate ability by Mr. Meredith and bit follow- ers. It is to be a sharp and vigorous campaign righe up NS the night of the 26th, and the dissatisfaction on every hand visible is indicative that Mr. - Meredith will be leader of the Govern- ment for:the next fonr years. ' x The Toronto News publishes tin affidavit by one J. J. Muldoon which if true proves that. moat ingeniously corrupt methods were employed in •, the last general election in the Liberal interests in Toronto. Muldoon admits he was one of a committee working for Messrs. Tait and McDougall (Mowat candidates), and among the methods re- sorted to for the advancement of purity of elections, was the hiring of false beards and moustaches from Deren - wend, the hair snare for the purpeee of personating abeentess and dead ineb. •A facsimile of the receipt of Duren - wend is published. Muldoon says lie wits personally given $40 to expend for this eless of work, and other mem- bers he understands were furniehed with !similar sums, and to his certain knowledge a large stun of money was paid out during that campaign for porpoises of personation. He received the money entrusted to him from Peter 3. Brown. A score of names of some persons to be personated are Oven by Muldoon, with the :James of some thirty teamsters Who conveyed person - atm% to the polls. Among the members of the precious committee that engin• eered those rnanoeuvers were Peter J. BrOwn,,of Osgoode Hall;Arthur Mowat, son of Sir Olivet; Wm. Weeds, a Globe opener, Samuel &mbar, D. P.

His marriage rows to this woman charged him to love and protect leer, and that, if she was not thrown into the river by his own hands, he had failed to guard her from falling, and that omission was a crime equal in the eyes of the law. The judge also spoke in French, and the jury, after being out seventeen miuutes, return- ed a verdict of guilty. The court rootu was jammed, but there was no demonstration. His, honor imme- diately adjourned the coutt until to day. Then the prisoner said: "Your Lord- ship, I wish to again state before God, ba - Tei Plusormt. tore the court and. all these people that I ani innocent of any crime swhatever.

I believe that you did it in what you believed to be British justice, but it was not justice to me. God is a just God, and. be would strike me dead if I am not speak- ing the truth, It is a fact that the woman jumped off the train before I did." At the close of the sentence the accused raised his voice to an awful pitch and with his hand upraised made a most im- fressive scene. He added: "My life is one and it does not matter to me whether he sentenoe is one day or a lifetime." Before discharging the pry Judge Bour- geois said: "Gentleman, the verdict you leave rendered is according to the evi- dence." •• Timm ItrvEns,'Qtae., June 19. -Hooper Fre for three hours yesterday from pious notes which be took during his l, claiming that witneeses and jtry , wero prejudiced against him.

Ramsey, of Madison, Wis., who was a passenger on the Ethipia when she came into collision with an iceberg on •Tune it, says that; the shook frightened the passengers greatly, everybody rushing to' the decks. Glaaaes and dishes were thrown to the floor and eetieles of furniture were overturned. We ill thought the vessel was sinking, said eft Ramsey, as when she backed away from the berg her bow dropped and her tern rose. The passengers made a rush for the boats and, the order was issued to Meer them away ready for use. Nobody, however, entered the boats.- Half an hour efterwards the captain called the passen- gers into the cabin- and assured them that there was not any immediate danger. Other passengers say steamship's engines were reversed, just before she shuck the berg. Had she still been going full speed ahead, they think, she could not have -withstood. the blow, but would have gone under almost immediately-. When the passengers had recovered from the shock and had scrambled to their feet they reticle scenes of panic and. confusion. Mothers and children were clasped in one another's arms. All the women and some of the men wept and many ran about on deck as if mad. A giant Englishman, of emeeptionally distinguished appearance, earned the reputation of being the worst frightened. than onboard, His abject ter- ror was so evident that he did more to aggravate the mule than did all the rest of the passengers. The fire, feelings of alarm was quieted by the captain's announcement, after the examination of the ship, that there was no danger of foundering. In the evening a thanksgiving service was held in the cabin. Many passengers were still nervous during the night, but the next day confidence was fully restored and all aboard amused them- selves as usual with cards, and jokes.
