The Montreal Gazette has been

weeks ago compiled from the official

x-AlcTerinnri McDonald, of Tor-
onto, who came out as a straight out
annexationist in the recent pallia
tneutary election in that city,' re-
ceived, according to official count,
171 votes, out of a possible 23,000.
This is probably as proportion•
ately large an annexation vote
as would be given through-
out the whole Dominion were an-
nexation made the 188110. Those
who are in favor of free trade are
not such dolts as to bliud themselves
to the fact that annexation means
an intensifying of, what they are
phased to term the '`iniquitous tar-
i!1-rerhber-y;'= for -t-h'e-tariff--u-f the
United States it' is well known is
more than twice as high as oui'e.

Brits when he framed his redietri
bution bill giving another tnembor
to a city that can show its Apprecia-
tion of Reform, without being anti•
Canadian or anti-British, fur Mr.
Bigelow M. P. P. is neither.
The election in Eastitrillt to fill
the vacancy caused by the death of
the•lete Hon. Alex, Mckenzie takes
place to day. It matters little so
far as the Govtirnmout or its polisy
is concerned whether Reformer
Leslie or Conservative McLean is
elected. Mr. L'tslie declares him-
self opposed to unrestricted recipro-
city with the States while ' he ad
vacates free glade with England.'
McLean is alert opposed to unrest.
icted reciprocity with the States
and while opposed to flee trade with
England is to favor of reduction
of duties on English goods if Eng-
land will give$C'anada preferential
admission of Canadian products.
Mr. Leslie's proposition is au im-
prectieabltr• one owing to the loses
tit would cause loony revenue, Mr.
McLean's proposition is a business
like one. A reduction of duties on
Eugliah goods, would entail some
lose of revenue but the loss would
be conpensatod by the better terms
on which our products would be
admitted into England. Our farm -
ale wotfld be benefitted at the ex-,
Ouse o the United States and other

Provinces. .While a leeding Ice•
forst j )ureal in St. John. N. B. is
pleased to remark :—
"It may tits said that in New
"Brunswick and Nova SoutiS no
"great party advantage is gained,
"and set far Mr. Abbott's promise
"has been carried out,"
The Grits are determined to con
vict Judge Elliot, rightly or wrong-
ly. Nothing short of impeachment
and dismissal will do them. This
is Grit partizans view of justice, and
whet i8 not in accord with their
views is, perforce,, wrong. And
they are looking np reasons for sup
posing -that the Government wilt
not accept their view of the guilt of
Judge Elliot. Tile latest is the un-
futtnnate display of parliamentary
strength of the Government. This
fact the, Grit Witness alleges will
aausel a miscarriage of justice. It
says: "The Government's big major-
ity is to be used to vote down the
resolution in favor of an enquiry
looking for an impeitchment." This
is a very reductio cttd abt.rw'duoa. The
undoubted strength of the Govern•
mugs hub of the strongest reasons
for surmising the that it will do
what is right without fear, favor or
affection. The lVitness is not in
the confidenceeof,the Tory majority
and does not know what it is going
to do. But there is nothing makes
men so suspicions of others doing
wrong than to know little of their
intentions.
Tho Grit press tell us that when
the Dumioion Government refused
to allow the motion, charging Sir
AdolphoCarou with serious frauds,to
pees that it refueed an invesigation.
But this is not so. Tho Govern-
ment went farther than did the Op-
position, and Hon. McKenzie Bo -
well's amendi'nent,whioll wee carried
by a mejorityof62,not only takes up
all the charges formulated by the Op-
position but also other charges not for
mulated but made in the [louse by
members of the Opposition. All of
which will bo investigated, not by a
committee of the House, Which
would naturally he oompoeed of a
majority of Government supporters,
but by a Commission composed of
three eminent judges who are be-
yond the control of the Government.
"Yet the Opposition prate the Gov
eminent is acting ES both judge and
jury in a case involving ono of its
members, whereas the' very rover•e
i, the cage. The Case by going bt-
fore a Commission of judges is
placed beyond the ooutrol of the
Government, its enpporters or party
bias. A more equitable disposal of
the charges against Hon. Mr.
Caron could not be mede,so far es
Parliament or the Government is
concerned. it and is but thectrr-'-
ing out of Sir John Thom; son's
and Prettier Abbott's declarations
on the re -organization of the Cab-
inet 1 That any properly formttlat-
od charges of wrong doing against
Government officials or tnombers of
theCabinet would be thoroughly and
impartially investigated. And well
has that promise been redeemed, the
rant of the Opposition to the
contrary, nevcrtholeas. The great
overshadowing fault of the Govern-
ment has been in not acting as judge
and jury where one of its members
is concerned, and in not allowing
the prosecuting Opposition to he

Sir Ricllitrd Cartwright says, that
whatever other members of the
slander brigade may do, ltelwi11 not
appear before the Royal Commis-
sion appoiuted by Parliament to in
vestigate the slanders which the
and others have'btoitght sgaiust Sir'
Adolphe Carou. Hoighty tuity 1
This is,ju11 whaat one might expect
from such a cowardly character.
Ho can bluster and deal in rascally
assertion ; he can write the British
and foreign press lying letters giv-
ing . a_ _lugubrious picture of - the
state -of Canada both financially and
morally;,rho can out Ananias, his or-
iginal prototype, in defaming
Canada, specifically and generally;
he can make statements auywhete
alati,, every%:'': 20 characterising our
statesmen and rulers as frauds and
swindlers, but he is afraid to face
the music in a court of competent
jurisdiction and endeavor to make
good his wholesale slanders. Bet
there is a greater power than Sir
Richard. The majesty of the law
and the fair names of our rulers
must be vindicated,auelthe dolorous
knight will find that he cannot be
a law unto himself and if he does
not obey the sunlmoo s of the Com-
mission he will find hiinself behind
prison bare wt.tere.hie infamous con -
duet should have placed hien long
ago. t Probably this is what he
wishes, to be made a pseudo martyr
of. His wish may be gratified.
We do hope that the following
clause in the proposed amendment
to the criminal node will become
law :—"Everyone is guilty of an
indictable offence and one year's im •
prisonment who publishes any false
news or tale whereby injury or mis
chief is occasioned to any public or
private interest." This may look
severe, but it is just withal. It is
too common a trick with many to
give currency to false reports—re-
ports that may cause infinite injury
to the individual or the public.
There is a world of practical wisdom
in Shakespeare's remark when he
says: "lie who steals' my pulse
,steals trash; he who steals my good
name taketh that which enrichoth
him nut and makes me poor 1ndeed."

PUBLIC OPINION.
DON'T FOUL, YOUR OWN NEST.
An American contemporary refers
to our Grit pessimists in the follow-
ing striking terms; "Here'sa home•
ly but solid motto for the Canadian
croakers : 'loot your own horn f
you don't dell a clam.' " The Unit-
ed States has certainly prospered by
so doing.
A SILVER LINING.
Whats the use of the blue ruinists
keeping it up ? The facts are dead
against them. Says The London
Economist of April :13: "Canadians,
out of the entire list of -Government
stocks, alone have held their posi-
tion in the London market, so that
they stand higher now than they did
at the close of 1890." One reason.
The Economist thinks, is that Canada
has not been borrowing. But, any..
way,. the fact speaks for itself.
SLAVERY n "GOD'S COUNTRY.')
The chinch bugs, grasshoppers,
droughts, mortgages;;and thirty years
of Republican rule have reduced us
to Egyptian slavery. We have, there
fore, resolved by the grace of God,
to leave for a better country if we
diebn the way.
So writes a farmer atWilliamsburg,
Kansas. tie wrote it to the C. P. R.
land commissioner at Winnipeg. 'He
