P., • leader of •Her Majesty's Loyal Opposi- tion; has been offered and has accepted lithe high and honorable position of Chfef Juitice of the Divisional Court of • Coi.nriion Pleas for Ontario, in place of tSf* Th rnas Halt, retired. THE NEwe- .RECoiLD regrets to loose such an able. leader from such 'a loyal party, but cannot agree with Grit newspapers -.that another leader cannot be found. There 'are in the ranks of the Ontario' Opposition capable men who are ready "and willing to guide our destinies. The choice of a new leader will not :suit the Grit Party; the welfare of • Ontario only will be considered in the Selection. Mr. Meredith has been in political life nearly 22 years. He was • chosen in a bye -election in 1873 for • London,, Before that time John Carl- ,' ling, now Sir John, used to monopolize Tooth .the Dominion and the Ontario ,seats. When dual representation was abolished John gave up the Legislative seat and wassucceeded by Mr. Meredith. .The 'new Chief Justice was a• young lawyer at that time, and the cry raised •agrinst him was that he was not old ,, :enough to go to Parliament. The cam ••paign was an exceedingly hot one, but the coming leader of his party won by • a majority, not large, bat safe. It was two or three mouths later that Perry, M. P. P. for North Oxford, resigned, and Sir Oliver ramie down off the bench and took his seat and the leadership of the Liberals. It was a coincidence that both the future leaders were sworn in on the sante day at the succeeding session.: Mr. Meredith is now the the oldest •nietn er of the Legislature except Thomas 'Gibson of Huron. ) The salary attached to the position is only $7,000 a year. THE CONSERVATIVE POLICY. What Canada, under liberal-conser- ,,; Live rule, aims at is•to apply all that is good of free trade. That policy is bas- ed on the following :- 1. (a) Free trade in necessary food ,products not raised in Canada ; (b) Free trade in raw materials not ,produced in Canada, for manufactur- (c) Free trade in manufactured or •• partly manufactured articles such as are not made in Canada, required for 7 the' use otits citizens, the development •• ;.'of the country or -for manufactured anis- pietnents. 2. Taxation for revenue purposes, chiefly levied on luxuries such an liqu- ' , .... ors, tobaccos and other expensive oods used by those able to pay for 'uclx. $. Protection on agricultural and manufactured products so as not to allow Canada's home market to be • 'glutted by the surplus faun and indus- trial products of the United States and 'tidier; lands. ,s,• YProhibition of a few objection- ;ble articles such as oleomargarine . • tad atltilterated foods. y Short, the policy is one embody- Ing, mbody ', ng• the good, or intended to embody }the.good and to eliminate the evils of free trade, taxation for- revenue, pro- tection to home agricultural and menu- r•faettrringg• industries, and prohibition fait .certain articles.

It has always been the policy of the Conservative government Of Canada to put the best available men on the bench. Sir John McDonald used to say, "Whatever else we may do, we must keep the bench clean." In carry- ing out , this policy it has been the habit of the Conservative government to ignore political lines, and many prominent Reformers have been put into high places in the judiciary of the country. The raising of Mr. Meredith to the chief justiceship is in accordance with this rule. He is by all odds ,the best man for the pcisition who could he found in Canada. His legislative experience of twenty-one years has given hila an intimate knowledge of the laws of the province which few, if any, others possess. He is emphatical- ly iL clean rnan ; a man of pure life and great ability a man who will maintain the high standard of the Canadian judiciary. The :,..,,^.1try and the governmer ..see to be congratulated uponMc;'Meredith' 'appointment. But what of the political situa 'on ? It has been the custom of the r owat- ites to make much of Mr- Mered h and little of his following. As a mat fact the opposition in the legislature has always contained men equal in caliber, if not superior, to those in th cabinet. And, although some promi ent members of the opposition 1%- re left at home in the last general el >c - tion, many first class men have heel added to the opposition, and while all Conservatives, must regret the loss of Mr. Meredith, there will be little difficulty in choosing an able successor. It is too early yet to mention names. The Toronto Globe has kindly stopped in and has given a long list of available men, some in and some out of the legislature; and, of course, mostly residents of Toronto. But the opposi- tion will be able to fill the vacant leadership without the advice of the enemy. It does not follow that the retire- ment of Mr. Me.•edith ,will endanger the hold of the opposition upon the London seat. The late campaign in that city was made 'upon the cry that Mr. Meredith was an outsider—a resident -of Toronto, and not only that, but he was an official employed by the corporation of the city of Toronto. There is no doubt that this cry had its effect. The Conservatives of London will, of course, bring out a local man, and any advantage Mr. Meredith niay have had by reason of his personal" popularity will be more than balanced by the fact that the coming Conserva- tive candidate will be a resident of London. The fight will be a hard one, for upon the result will depend the question whether the government will have a majority of one or a minority of one. It may be that the Conservatives in the legislature will not elect a leader for the party ; but wilr'simily follow the Patron leader, Mr. Haycock. This they can easily and consistently do, for the Patron platform and the Conservative platform, so far as the Ontario 'Nish -it -ire is concerned, are identical. Such a combination would control the situation. CURRENT TOPICS. Fair criticism of public men by any public journal is all right, but just how the Goderich Signal can degrade its 'columns with such abuse as that paper weekly contains, of Mayor Butler, is beyond comprehension. One of the latest political rumors is to the elect that Mr. D. A. Forrester will join the Patron Order and receive the Patron nomination for West Huron, in place of James Gaunt, to contest the next Dominion election. What foun- dation there is for the rumor we do not profess to know. The Stratford Herald was charged with criminal libel hy.one McPherson, a license. commissioner, 'because that paper published an affidirvit showing up fraud in the"granting of liquor lic- enses bythe Mowat Gc er • r n neat. The jury justly threw out the bill and the conrniissionera are now placed still deeper in the mire of partisan Grit political corruption. • +Sir John Thompson will unveil the statue of the lite Sir John A. Mac- donald in Toronto on the 13th inst. and make the principal speech. Sir Oliver Mowat, the Hon. Mr. Laurier, the Hon. J. A. Chapleau, Sir Adolphe Caron and others will also he invited to deliver suitable addresses. A. parti- cularly nice feature of the ceremony will be the parade of the school child- ren, who are to be addressed by the Minister of Militia. The list of invited guests includes the Dominion's most prominent men. Ex -Mayor Clarke is to preside and will at the close of pro- ceedings formally present the statue to the city. PRESS OPINIONS. Chief Justice Meredith. Toronto star. Mr. Meredith deserves well of the province and the country he has served so well and faithfully and to whose good laws he has contributed so much. Mr. Meredith is an able lawyer, and he will make an upright, ableudge. I4e will be an ornament to the bench. He deserved the appointment, and he will adorn the' bench with grace and learning and honor. The province loses a statesman and gains a judge. PRK80,' OPINIONS„. A Pinangial •LoseTo, Himself;.

But the objection of his Honor is not. well founded. The advice is good on two. grounds ; firstly, because' its adoption will provide needed protection forlittle girls, and secondly, because those for whom the new penalty is intended should be prevented by society from propagating their species. • Wise and Otherwise, In Chicago the highwaymen assault and rob policemen. In I ew York the policemen have turned highwaymen and assault and rob the citizens. In Canada the laws are so British that citizens are protected by the pnlice- ulen. In Kentucky it is now a lynching offense for a white man to be suspect- ed of burl:lug barns. Kentucky will never be civilized until a'little British law is adopted. .

On Friday afternoon the third an- nual games of the Goderich Collegiate lnstitue were held on the Agricultural Park and, as on the two previous oc- casions, gentle showers cooled the ath- letes. However the garnes were well contested, many of them being exceed- ingly exciting on account of the closeness of the finish. The relay raceln which a number of men repre- senting the collegiate and an equal number from the Modelite class of 94 contested, created considerable excite- ment, as until the last men of the relay grasped their handkerehiefs the, end was in doubt, but as soon as Student Elliott grasped the token Model School stock went up, and ainid the cheering of his classmates he ran to the end in a style that Mr. Hooper must have ad- mired, passing the scratch an easy win- ner.
