The Weekly Sun is not a political organ, and hence its strictness may be considered fair, Here is what it says regarding the recent frauds at Ot- tawa :-- Wholesale frauds have been discov- ered in the Government printing bureau at Ottawa. The extent to which the public treasury has been. robbed varies, according to different reports, from a quarter of a million to a million dollars. The method by which public money was stolen was the same as that pursued by certain officials in the Marine Department, and uncovered by the evidence brought out before Judge Cassels; dis- honest public servants allowed equal- ly dishonest contractors tocharge exorbitant prices for supplies purchas- ed for public purposes, and part of the rake-off found its way into the poc- kets of faithless servants who aided in this form of robbery. As a result of the discovery of the fraud in the print- ing bureau the chief offender is, we are told, "a fugitive from justice," while five others have been 'dismissed from office and one suspended. ti It seems strange, in view of the fact that investigations into the frauds had been going on for months, that the chief offender was allowed to get away. A bank official under suspi- cion would not have escaped so easily; he would have been under surviellance the moment dishonesty was suspected and arrested as soon as proof was obtained. The case becomes more peculiar in view of the excuses being put forward on behalf of the chief cul- prit. The old excuse of "the system" being at fault is again made to do duty, and we are told if temptation, due to Iack of check on his work had not been put in bis way, the one who is now a fugitive, might have continu- ed an honest man, The circumstances are such as to almost justify the sus- picion that the escape of the chief cul- prit has been connived M. Further- more, if "the system," under which the robbery was perpetrated, is at fault, why has it remained so long un- changed ? The present Government has been in power for almost fourteen years. How much longer time does it require to devise "systems" that will not be at fault ? The Government al- lowed the public to be robbed of vast sums in the Marine Department, as was shown by the Cassel's report ; it has since allowed further robbery of another branch of the public service in precisely the same way. Is not this shifting of the blame upon "the system" becoming rather attentuated? kIow long a time does the Govern- ment think it ought to have to change ?the system" all the way through—a hundred years ? If a few of those who plundered the treasury through the Marine Department had been sent to the penitentiary, as offenders who plundered the State Government of Pennsylvania were sent, is -it not pos- sible oven the present "system" would have since been found sufficient to en- sure a reasonable measure of honesty in the public service of the Do- minion? System nothing ; it is the men, who are at fault, Lucknow. The reunion of Bruce old boys and girls at Lucknow, July 31st, Aug, lst, 21id, 3rd and 4th, promises to be a great success. CCeHS.

The lot composed about 1300 head of very fine cattle, and average weight was 1350 lbs. each. The market price of beef is 7i cents per pound, and the shipment is worth about $00,000. The' cattle have been confined in the stable for the past eight months and are what is known as distillery fed, The shipment was made by C.P.R. to Toronto, and it required 45 cars. The cattle will be shipped • direct to. England from Montreal, Cow Goes Mad, There was considerable excitement in Mitchell on Sunday over a cow which went suddenly mad. The ani- mal was owned by Mr. John Davis, and her actions were such as to cause much alarm, She bit the ground, bit at a calf, and was so frenzied that no- thing Gould retain her. Finally she tumbled over an embankment and broke her neck. It is thought that the cow was bitten, by a mad dog some three months ago, but she show- ed no symptoms of rabbles until Sun- day, which goes to prove that the period of incubation is not definite. The brain bas been sent to Ottawa for analysis. The milk was used by the family, but it is hoped that this will leave no serious effects. --[Advocate. Vinegar Talks By The Wilson Lytle Badgerow Co,, Toronto (The Largest Vinegar Works In America) TALK NO. I --VINEGAR VS. VINEGAR, Some say "Vinegar is only Vine- gar so long as it is sour," What a serious mistake ! Vinegar may be "good" "bad" or "worse." That only small quantities are used is no reason why we want to place on our tables for ourselves and our children the "bad" and the "worse." A little of the "bad" and the "worse" is altogeth- er to much. but a little of the "good" is a joy and a delight. Most people want the "best" and the "best" only. Merchants sometimes for extra profit try and sell poor vinegar to their unsuspecting patrons. If you will fol- low carefully our series of "vinegar talks" you will learn something about the "best." In the meantime, ask your grocer for "Wilson's Vinegar" only, then you will be safe. Look for the barrel with the red ends, Colborne Dispute Settled. The township of Colborne and the West Shore Railway have settled the dispute as to the Dunlop crossing in a manner that should allay the irri- tation, which prevailed during the past few weeks. Instead of prolonged and costly litigation the two sides came to an understanding, the Rail- way Co. withdrawing its complaint against certain residents of the town- ship for interference with its proper- ty, and the township withdrawing -its action for a mandatory order and its opposition to the Company's track in dispute, each side to pay their own costs. Other provisions agreed to, looking to the safe guarding of the public, are the stopping of all south- bound cars ten feet south of the north edge of the concession road at Dunlop, and the ringing of a gong before starting, and the Railway Co, enter into an agreement to level out the road and attend to its repair, and be- came liable in case ofdamages. through accident, the township to be free from liability in this regard.
