Tern Standard is the name of tile
new Conservative paper issued at
Toronto last Monday. Its editor is
Louis P. Kribbs, for some time on
the staff of the Toronto News. En
its introductory to the public the
editor says :—
The defection of the Mail has left
the Couservetive party iu the To
ronto district without newspaper
exponent of its views. The causes,
whatever they may bo, that have
revolutionised the viewe of the Mai/
have not so affected the party it et
one time so ably led, and to that
party wo confidently °look for the
Support that hae been so liberally
tendered to the Conservative preee
in the past. To close the gap left
in the Conservative ranks by the
(mum of the Mail, we have entered
the field, and that we have done so
hastily is because the tune was
pressing.
The Mail, although professing to
take an independent stand, chows
its leanings and. prefoxences se
strongly for its firat levet—the Con-
servative party—that it ehakes the
confidence of the public in its inde-
pendent views who imagine that Sir
John and the management of the
Mail are too great [cronies aud too
often hold confabs together to prove
that the repudiation business
amounts to anything more than a
blind to the public.
