FLUIDAY (Mien 4, 1894.
What is the Record?
The Local House is practically dis-
solved, though the date of the elections
has not yet been announced, but the
respective candidates are before the
country, and it will be well for the
electors to donsider the claims of the
several parties in the field. The Liber-
al candidates appeal .for support on the
strength of the government's record.
The questions to be considered are,
has the government been an economi-
cial one, a pure one, an honest one; has
,i -legislated in the interests of the
41oountry as a whole; has it endeavored
to lookafter the welfare and well-being
of the country, or on the other hand,
have these interests been neglected,
and has the government been unfaith-
ful to its trust.
No matter how opinions may differ
as to matters of detail, it will be ad-
mitted, we believe, by nearly every-
body, that the government has not
been a corrupt one, in the sense in
which corruption is understood. No
charge of this nature has ever been
sustained against any member of the
Mowat government, nor has anything
pertaining thereto, and the govern-
ment can point with honest pride to a
.record of official honesty and integrity
that cannot be impugned.
The supporters of the government
claim that every department of the
public service has been efficiently. and
• economically administered, and. there
is very little, if anything, to indicate,
that the claim is not a good one. The
Opposition htf to brought forward
,, gi c wc) contrary, but none of
these of a serious nature have been
sustained in the house:
The amendments to the fee system
will put this on a better and less objec-
tionable. basis. The attacks made,
especially on the Education depart-
ment and also that of Agriculture,
have revealed no improprieties worthy
- "of the name, nor has it been shown the
departments could be administered
better than they have been. The few
minor irregularities that are laid to
the charge of the government are not
matters of vital concern, nor do they
involve, seriously, employees of the
civil service. It is exceedingly difficult
to have every official live up to the
actual letter of, the law, and while that
is no excuse for any deviation from the
path of duty, the irregularities have
been of the most trifling and unimpor-
tant character, and even these the
government is endeavoring to guard
against.
Taken altogether, the record of the
Mowat administration is, a good one;
one that should receive the support of
every admirer of honesty in public
life. As this record is based upon ef-
ficiency, economy and sterling honesty,
we fail to see upon what grounds the
opponents of Mr Mowat can expect to
receive the support of the electorate in
this Province.

The Montreal Star reasons well when it

as many of our readers know, there

that if Mr Stewart will accept the call
it will be the means of uniting the

A charge much insisted upon by
Patrons of Industry is that there are in
our legislature at Toronto too many
members of the legal profession, and
that representatives of that profession
constantly attempt to have statutes
framed in such a way as to create liti-
gation andincrease law expenses. We
have always thought the charge an un-
fair one, and in the case of Mr.Garrow,
our able representative, signal proof
has been furnished, during the present
session, in the bill which he has intro-
duced and sudceeded in having passed,
that the charge does not fit. We refer
to the bill respecting Writs of Execu-
tion. Hitherto, in enforcing judg-
ments, the law has required the issue
of separate executions against goods
and lands, the lst section of Mr Gar -
row's bill provides for the issue of one
writ against both goods and lands.
The writs now require to be renewed

provides that when execution issue$ it
'will stand good for three years, unless
in the meantime satisfied. Under the
law as it was, creditors obtaining judg-
ments in the Division Court could not

• expense of having their Division Court

County Court. The 3rd section of this

through the counties; if such a tax
were imposed in Ontario, that would
meals that each county would have to
remit $65,000 to the Provincial treasury.
In New York a land tax• was raised
which, if applied here, would oblige
each county to raise $67,000 for the
Province; and Michigan raises a land
tax of $1,272,000, a rate which in Onta-
rio would mean $33,000 per county.
We have contended all along that
the agitation for the abolition of Sepa-
rate Schools was not only ill advised,
but was useless, for the reason that
the constitution guarantees their exist-
ence, and the constitution cannot he
amended. The Toronto World has
hitherto been one of the wildest and
most unreasonable papers in it opposi-
tion to Separate Schools, but it
evidently seen how utterly unpra(eti-
cable is its attitude, for it said edit pri-
ally the other day :-
"In Canada it will not be possible to
abolish Separate Schools by constitu-
tional amendment, at least not in the
present day and .under present condi-
tions."

DON'T DO IT.—We.have advised our

and are pleased to see that many have
done so, but we would advise some of

flowers for themselves, they should not
be mean enough to steal them from

UNFAIR.—In last week's Blyth Stan-

while the Mansion House did, and the
Standard attributes this discrimina-
tion to politics. Now how can this be
the case, when the proprietor of the
Mansion House is a pronounced Con-

Central, also a Conservative, told the
commissioners "he bad been voting
