Commenting on his defeat in Bran -
Hoo. Hugh John Macdonald said
that modern politics as known by
Clifford Sifton was simply a question
of cash. "Ready cash, said Hugh
John. "was much more ponent in aid-
ing Sifton than fullfilled pledges were
t in aiding me. While vrh. had money
only for the most absolutely necessary
expenses, our opponents had money
'unlimited. Voters were brought from
the Yukon, California, Vancouver and
eastern Canada to vote for Sifton.
Each organizer and canyasser had only
12 men to look after, and. in this way
•y thirteenth man was an organ -
As to the prohibition vote Hugh
said:-` I am sorry to say that,
ing from this election, what is
nonly called the prohibition vote
,myth. I am afraid that the men
ntario alk prohibition are first Liberals,
e b, laionservatives, and after that pro-
' nnists. The result has proved
here is no such thing as a purely
bition Vote. I believe that the
aa.18o means a set -back for pro-
ion,i from which t will not re-
p within the net 20 years. Poli -
are only human, and we can
7 learn by experience, and they
re so human that my experience will
teaele them not to sacrifice them-
selvee for the sake of a party which
deserts them at the polls. The liquor
met know where they stand, and no
liquor man will sacrifice his inter
este simply because it is his party
which is doing it, The trouble is the
prohibitionists vote with their poli-
tical party, and the liquor men, both
Conservatives and Liberals, vote and
work against, the party which favours
pronihition, In the future the pro-
hibitionists may thank themselves if
neither of the great political parties
-cdnoont, to take up their cause." Hugh
John will not re-enter local politics.
He will devote himself to his law prac-
tice.

It , must be remembered that the
franchise of the 1900 election was en-
tirely different from that which gov-
erned the contest of 1896. It is now
one man one vote, an elector must Tote
where he lives or sleeps.
The Ocldfellows of the Toronto dis.
trict have appointed a committee to
kook out for a farm of 100 acres, which
can used as a home for old members
of the order, still able to do more or
less work, The committee hope to be
able to get a plate near Oakville.
Rumors are current that negotia-
tions are nearing completion for the
amalgamation of the Canada Cycle
and 1Vloter Company, Limited, and the
National Cycle and Automobile Com-
pany, Limited, the two large com-
panies recently formed by the amal-
gamation of several Canadian bicycle
companies. Such an amalgamation as
that reported would practically con-
trol the whole Canadian bicycle busi-
ness. '
