In the session of Aoki?' after this investigation, a motion 1)7 .., Matter, seconded by Mr. Kerns, to give effect to the views of the Oplaosltion an this matter was voted clown, every follower of the govern- Metit in the House (i8 in number) vot- e/i3 against the motion. Mr. J. W. tangrnuir, formerly inspector of asy- lime, was examined before the coin- luttee, aud, in answer to the following questions: "Will you explain what difference it c' Would. make in the duties if officials " were paid a salary covering every- ." thing necessary fur living outside as " now, what difference would that be ".ovee the present system?" replied as follows: • "I think you would have great " difdeulty to get the legislature to "vote the requisite amount to cover "these supplies and perquisites not in- " eluded in the estimates. If you gave t` Dr. Clark $4,000 instead of $2,000, I " doubt' very much if you gentlemeu " with economical ideas would favor " it. You would think he was getting " more than he is entitled to." It -therefore appears that the govern- ment dare not ask the legislature to vote the amounts which are paid certain of its officials, because the mem- bers would demand greater economy in dealing with these public servants, and what the legislature would refuse to do openly the government does Covertly, and thus fleeces the Province out of thousands of dollars' every year. What do the:people of 'Huron think of such an honest, economical adminis- tration of its affairs? The investigation before the same Public Accounts Committee showed that all supplies for the public institu- tions are not bought by tender,nor even at the lowest current prtees,as any retail businessman would do, 1)11 t. are bought from political friends of the govern- ment andnt prices from ten to twenty- five per cent. higher than the current value of such articles. Considering the enorinous amounts that aro expended annually on supplies for the mainten- ance,inf the various public institutions of the Province which are not tender- ed for and the enhanced prices paid for them, it must be clear to every impar- tial observer that the annum loss to the Province is many thousands, all of which goes to enrich those who vote for ail& otherwise support the Govern- ment of Sir Oliver Mowat. The amount spent by the Govern- ment, of Ontario on the maintenance of. Public Institutions for the year 1803 Was Over A QUARTER OF A MILLION DOLLARS. . e only way to check all tilis ex- traLnce is t�.r vote for Weismiller an every supporter of W. R. Mere- dith. HOW THE PEOPLE ARE ROBBED. Hamilton Spectator"; The pretense of Sir Oliver Mowat and his supporters that the Provincial government does not impose any bur- dens of taxation upon the people, is as impudent and as baseless as most of the pretenses put forward in behalf of that government. To hear these peo- ole .talk one would think they were meeting all government expenditures out of their own' pockets. Indeed: they seem to have come to cofrsider the provincial revenues theirprivate hru- perty, and that they aro hestowing charity, or et least conferring a favAr, when. they patty this money to persons to *horn it is due. For that reason they have' no consciousness of wrong- doing when theypay public money to promote their private ends. When. Mr. Dryden ordered : Mr. Shaw to boy the old "silver medal hull," which was no good, and was clot needed at •the experimental farm, he had not the slightest notion that he was wasting public money to secure his reselection : ho believed, no doubt, that he had a right to spend this money of the people's just as if it were hislown money. One of the strongest reasons for' turning the. Mowat govern. ment out, and putting an honest gov- ernment in, is the fact that the present ministers are absolutely unable to understand that they are merely trus- tees of the people, and that they have no right to spend a dollar of the peo- ple's money without getting full value m return for the people. The money they get is not only the people's money, but it is paid by the people. The subsidy paid into the provincial treasury Is raised by cus- toms and excise duties. The crown lands and timber revenues are the property of the people. If they were not squan- dered—extravgantly and dishonestly squandered—there would he a large surplus to be accumulated for provin- cial needs, or for distribution among municipalities, thus reducing taxation . for local purposes. The marriage lic- ense fee does not go into the public treasury at all. It is paid by those who take out marriage Iicenses into ' the pockets of Mowat partizans to •"gay them for their services to ,the party. The liquor license money is taken from the muni- cipalities to which it rightfully be- longs. One of the most iniquitous taxes im- p by the Mowat government is t t of taxing bequests. After the O stis,n statesman has robbed a man during his life he plunders the heirs at his death. The will of the late Mrs. Mitchell well illustrates the manner in which this plunder is collected. That will bequeathed $52,800 to various per - soils; and benevolent institutions. The Mowat government wrings $2,055 from the legatees.. Those who are near re- latives of the testator are compelled to 'pay onlyh5sper cent, of the sum Left thenT1. , Marion A. Lyght is will- • ed $400; she receives $380, and the Christian statesman takes $20. Edna A. dames gets $950 of the $1,0110 left her, and the Christian statesman gets $50. So $250 is taken from the5,000 left Mrs. Lpps • $250 from the $5,000 ' left to Mrs. L+ Epps; $250 $50 from the 1000 left to Mrs. It viler; $25 from the $500 • left •tip I1fl's, Trask, .and ...VOD frtaxn the r 1'e Qng,l li is h to Id at C sue' riot' ez there tB none et :all, 1,0 .per Pent Of the legalcy snatched' by the Christian statesman, A suns of 140 WAS left to RSdv,.

Maud McM lair, the nurse who attended Mrs. Mit hell dur- ing>her last day§, cannot get von the $100 left •her by the flying woman, hut the Christian pirate reacheeacr'oss the coffin lid arcs snatches away $10 of that pittance. And so on through the list. When the grateful invalid left a small sunt to a humble friend, or to a faithful ser- vant, she believed that sum would be paid. It did not enter into her calcula- tion that the gover•nhent of Ontario would step in to defeat in part her kind intentions, and to reduce by 10 per cent the legacies which she intend- ed to be paid in full: CURRENT TOPIVS. for Weismiller, and vote a'Vote early. aarlf independence is a good thing, vote for Connolly. rerThe Mowat Government will die game. ax'Seo that your neighbors go to the poll and check corruption and hand nd by 'rotiug for WEISMlLLER. arVote against every Mowat candi- date and save Ontario front corruption, fraud and extravagance. as -Conservatives should not be en- trapped to give Mowat and Co. support in any manner, shape or form. :an say that the man would be a cra- ven who, for. any trade advantage, would barter away the national life.— Meredith at London. iv Unless our educational interests are to become the football of politicians it is absolutely necessary that we return to• the system of placing thein under the head of a non-political Minister.— Meredith at London. £ That Cleary pastoral is worth a thousand votes to the Meredith candi- dates in several Ridings and is just about sufficient to offset the value of the Premier's prohibition pledge throughout the country. earThe Grits shouldn't at this stage spread silly lies about this or that Con- servative going to make'a fool of him- self by voting Grit. Lies of that sort told now are easily contradicted. The Grits should keep that sort of ammuni- tion until polling day. air Public feeling can be pretty well guaged when there is little Or no en- thusiasm at Grit public meetings, while Conservative ineetings. are uni- versally well attendees and harked by the greatest enthusiasm. Again, we repeat, Mowat must go. ea -Mr. Garrow's Clinton meeting was a continuation of the "war to the knife" with Reformers. While Mr. Garroter ridiculed the Conservative policy he pleaded for Conservative votes. Are Conservatives the foot- stool of Sir Oliver Mowat? We think not. i, $ Tlu ballot is designed for the pra- tectien of a man against the man who is occupying the position Of employer, who would coerce and knproperlyc in- fluence a main over whom he had any power, and, therefore, I say the secret ballot is a necessary part of the insti- tutions of a free and democratic coun- try.—Meredith at London. d8 We hope that some day a majority even of the Rommel Catholics them- selves will join in the demand for the abolition of. Separate schools. The hope is not a vain one. The more in- telligent of the Catholic laity feel to- day that their children are hampered in the race of life by a denial of the advantages offered by a Public School training and that it would be better in every way if all children were educat- ed under the same roof. ad -Sir Oliver and his party will have many stns to answer at the ballot box next Tuesday. The following from Onward, a, Sunday School paper, is applicable :— "No man can serve God 'in the Church and Satan in the State. No man can serve the Lord in a religions sect and the devil in a political party. No num can be a saint in the pew and aL murderer at the polls ; an angel in reli- gion and a demon in politics.' aarThe publication of the Muldoon story should have been followed by an ac- tion against the author for criminallibel or the prosecution of those named in his affidavit for conspiracy. Neither step has been taken. Are we, then, to con- clude that the story is true but that the Government dare not prosecute the al- leged conspirators through fear of caus- ing more damming revelations? Mr. Garrow did not in any way refer to the matter at his Clinton meeting last Wednesday evening. That's where his "independence" didn't count. terMr. M. Y. McLean, the South Huron "political adventurer" (this is what be calls society men who happen to be members of parliament) worked his cards nicely and by pulling the strings of the Grit convention ousted pioneer Bishop. Mr. McLean is now engaged in the "damnable" work of a1 politician which he has denounced for many years and particularly before he was a candidate. Like Sir Oliver Mowat he declares that he is too good a man for this world, hut keeps mighty bad com- • parry when an election campaign is on. atrARI'J111TI' '4'04100, 1 11QW, 111:r, 11fpLe ate t,pr ",tb4 obitns, will ketch you et you—don't watch ^. out lt' a 'E.lectofs of the tkiree Unrolls have Cone o tothe honest conclusion that Ontario is governed to death..

Haw many of the hatter will support the Mowat candidates in Baron ? =Come to the Clinton town hall this (Wednesday) evening. on, 'N. Clarke Wallace, Dr. Beattie Nesbitt, and the coming Conserve tive member for South Huron will be there. ttThe Mayor of Clinton spoke against. James Connolly aft Londesboro on Saturday evening. His Worship bowed to obedience as the Patron lash- ed hits on the issues of the day. aiePatron Connolly forced Mayor IIoltnes to take back SEVEN misstate- ments at Londeaboro last Saturday evening. This is at the rate of ten lies an hour, or ono hundred a day., We have grave doubts as to the future safety of our friends, the Grits. a' -it is just such men as the officers of the various Orange Lodges that degrade the Institution, was in effect the declaration of Mr. M. Y. McLean last August. What do the officers of the various primary lodges in South Huron think of Mr, McLean's false charge ? larWhere does Sir Oliver Mowat secure so many millions of dollars ? The Grits claim that not one cent of it comes from the people. Intelligent electors, do not be deceived by such hypocrisy. The money comes from the pockets of the people and a good portion of it goes to fee -ted officials. a 'If THE PEOPLE desire to save On- tario from the thraldom of fee -fed officials, corruption and extravagance they must go to the polls next Tuesday and vote for inen who will give at least some support to W. R. Meredith. They will then in every case vote against the Mowat Machine candidates. a2'McLean pockets the good money of young men in the way of marriage license fees by order of Sir Oliver Mowat. Weismiller creates public im- provements and offices through his own influence, without asking or ex- pecting a ceut of money in return. Why not elect a man of the people and give Mr. Weismiller your confidence? ae'The Grits and the Grit press are in great fear lest the Conservatives in any way support W. R. Meredith. They cannot draw a red herring across the track in the present issue. Conserva- tives, while very liberal -minded,. do not enderse or recognize, the Mowat plat- form, and therefore cannot consistent- ly vote for any Mowat candidate. aaeRebel Jackson, a former Wing- hamite and student of Clinton High Schopl, one of rebel Riel's lieutenants in the Northwest rebellion, has now turned up at Washington. The Pest said last Monday that he was the leader in a plot to blow up the Parlia- ment buildings at Washington. Jack- son is destined to dangle et the end of the hempen string souse day. Ire*Weisiniller's meeting at Exeter last Fridity evening was attended by 1,200 supporters and he was cheered• to the echo. McLean's meeting on Thursday evening was attended by less than a quarter the number and there n e! wits n enthusiasm. n This 1 ncci unst t aces that the people are for W. R. Meredith anvil D. Weismiller. Every vote should be polled. Wertis stated on good authority that. at least three hotel -keepers in South Huron have been warned to vote for Mee M. Y. McLean or -loose their licenses. Mr. McLean has someetrange campaign companions, but the electors are surely aware of the hypocrisy of the Mowat Government ere this. .If the people desire honest temperance legislation they will elect DAVID W EISMILLER and WILLIAM RALPH MEREDITH. aa, -Dr. McDonald, of iVingilam, is doing ,missionary work for Sir Oliver Mowat , just now. A good elector at Zurich' the other night asked the doctor to explain his vete with the "devil's thirteen." He could not ex- plain honestly and swallowed a very large dose of the poison he has been hypocritically administering to the loyal electors of East Huron for some years. Dr. McDonald is a dishonest politician, and has made votes for Weismiller. The gun went off the other way. aerThe New Era boasts of how Sir Oliver Mowat has curtailed the liquor traffic. He has ;curtailed the number of license holders, but not the traffic. With the lesser numberof licenses hehas forced the municipalities to pay over to hint 66 per cent. of the license money instead of 44 per cent. as formerly. This 66 per cent. of the license money, robbed from the muni- cipality of Clinton and other sections, should go toward street watering, im- provements, of streets and other worthy purposes. But it would not do for our totem. to give all the facts. itai^The Grit candidate for South Huron, Mr. McLean, is very far from being honest in political matters. He addressed many West Huron elector the other evening and spoke in favor of Sir, Oliver Mowat. A short time since he jumped on the Patton platform with both feet, declaringg that he would endorse it. Mr. Oonnoily is the Patron candidate for West Huron, while Mr. Garrow is the nominee of the Mowat party. Now, Mr. McLean iwas dis- honest id one case or the othar. He is an out and out Grit and always has been. For all we know he always will be, because Grits never change. What do the Reform and Conservative Pat- rons of South Huron think of Mr. Mc- Lean's hypocrisy P They will have an opportunity to answer at the ballot box. qua ,tlr!

Now the Globe is slang-whanging the Patrons and every- thing else with a big P to it. earWil1 the slandered Orangemen of Stanley, Goderich township and Bay- field vote for McLean, who solemnly declared last summer that he had no favors to ask from the Orange or any other association. 'Ontario, penplp may take their re- ligione instruction from Rev. Principal Grant and Archbishop Cleary of King- ston ; but they refuse to vote for Sir Oliver Mowat at the dictation of the two ecclesiastics. ar•Tlle Globe is not satisfied because the additional city Ridings forced on the people are not carved on the bias. Up in Bruce one riding is so mercilessly carved that a snake fence is required to connect two portions of it. aa -The Ontario educational system is sadly in need of revising. The system now favors the classes against the masses. The Glasses should rule. A change can only come by supporting W. R. Meredith on the 20th. azf'he 'Toronto Globe charges the Hamilton Templar with "far exceeding tithe boundsof fairness in its hostility to some Liberal candidates." The Grit candidate for South Huron cannot longer play a fast and loose game with intelligent temperance electors. arHas anyone ever stopped to think of how far Sir Oliver Mowat would not have gone in his concessions to the "solid vote" of the Roman Catholic .Church if it had not been for the wholesome fear he entertains of William Ralph Meredith. earEvety good law placed on the Ontario. statute was amended through W. R. Meredith's persistent opposition to Sir Oliver .5lowat's toryism. The Conservatives are opposed to the Mowat Government, not altogether for what they have done, but decidedly for what they have refused to do. arSir Oliver Mowat compels the ninnicipelity of Clinton to provide eight polling places, althought there is no more need for. them than there is for a fifth wheel to a wagon. Sir Oliver makes the law, the people pay, and Mr. Garrow serenely assents to the addi- tional expense. ' srThe Lord Mayor of London, y'clept the Mayor of Clinton, is "at it" hammer and tongs in the interests of South Huron's grit candidate. We are pleased to learn that he has not been compelled to apologise for his many misstatements more than seven or eight times during a single evening. This is a little improvement. M&RKE'r REPORTS.
