the price of what farmers have to sell,
and other interests combine to enhance
the value of what they require to buy.
The fanners have the reinedy' in their
own hands. All they have to do is to
-unite and take the bull by the horn,
and show these conspirators that. they
are much stronger than any 'combine-
tionsthat can be formed against them,.
This can easily be done by sinking all
party differences AO uniting leer policy
that will reduce the burdens they have
to bear. . _,
ro accampliah this successfully would
be to fake the patronage out- of the
• hands of both goverements. This Can
be done by bath the opposition and the
government naming a certain number, of
good young men in each Province as *
government examiner for public .officers.
AVhen this is clone let it last decided by
ballot who is to be the examiehr for
each of the provinces. Let these men
be responsible to both the Local and
Dominion Goverements to - provide.." ir-
respective of party" good, young com-
petent men to fili government positions
when vacancies °emir. When the re-
quired lumber in each county. or city
have passed their examinations for first,.
second or tllird, class- positions, let, their
names be left with the county judge,atid
when vacancies occur -let. the positions
be balloted for under the care of the
judge. It would be impossible for one
examiner. in each - Province to examine'
all the applicant& as things are at pies-

would want tat etand a chance of getting

let the salaries be reduced to $500, $750,

Power. There would be 1101180 in de-'
signing politicians giving a blindsuppOrt
to their party for the sake of being pro-
vided for. The' government would then
be independent of party, and would not
require to superannuate those :whose ye-
litical influence is gone, for the sake- of
rewarding their supporters. In short„
such a scheme. as this would break the
back bone of party and put an end to all
party warfare.- Governments instead' of .
spending the people's inoney to keep in
power, would have to turn over a new
leaf, and save money, and reduce the
people's burdens to keep in power.
Their only object would be to legislate
in the best interests of the country.
The business of the party press, which
has been to pervert the truth in the in-
terests, and to pander to the prejudihes
of their party, would be done away
with. No newspaper ought to have the
right to criticise adversely the speeches
of their opix;nenta without first pub-
lishing the speeches that they intend to
criticise. If this were done their read-
ers could then form an intelligent . and
an impartial opinion fa—themselves.
