Political Notes.
The Provincial elections are now
only three weeks distant, but there
are no Beldam indioaelons of any
great excitement on the part of thepublie
despite Mr. Whitney's trentio beating oi
tomaones. The upheaval of opinion
which he predinted would confront the
Government when it went to the country
must be nomesietent, or working so quiet-
ly that even politioians with their eare on
nue ground unmet hear it. His attempt
to create a moral Mane is regarded as
mare political melodrama and his per.
fervid appeals to "clergymen and all good
people" excite a mild hilarity, as be is so

party. If Mr. Whitney were leas violent
in his language he would be taken more
seriously, ever/ by hie own followers.
The people of this Province refuse to be-

that there le nothing to get exalted about.
Iu other elections attempts have been
made to inflame sectarian paseion, and
a good deal of beat was engendered, but

been dropped by the Oppositioa, for the
