Opxena has been having rather an un•
enviable notoriety of bale in eonneotion
with atrocious murders and dragged out
murder trials, As Canadians we often
point the finger of scorn at our Ameri-
can cousins over the apparent low value
plaosd upon human life but before much
more of this is done we should look to
our -own land. The decision of some
juries in allowing prisoners their liberty
has made a laughing stook of justice in
this Dominion.

Huron Liberal Assooiation (Provinoial

CONSIDERABLE annoyance has been es.
perienced by the Canadian authorities
over a despicable attempt to deprive On-
tario of fairly won awards at the recent
World's Fair. Six diplomas and bronze
medals to agricultural implements were
destroyed after the judges bad completed
their work and another sat of men took
it upon themselves to give the awards be-
longing to the Massey -Harris Company
to American firms. An investigation has
been made at Washington and it is ex-
pected the wrong will be set right. A11
Canadians want is a fair field and no
favor,
