ONE THING AND ANOTHER.
The Quebec Liberals Who wore in-
dulging in a family quarrel, ostensibly
for sweet principle's sake, are returning
to the fold, for a consideration'. The
temptations of tire flesh pots will targe
those fellows every time. We of On-
tario are concerned about those wash-
• ings of domestic linen inasmuch as they
invariably entail an additional burden
upon the country and this ptovince
Must pay the biggest share.
Judge Jette, of Quebec, has been
superannuated on a two -'thirds retiring
allowance and appointed Lieutenant -
Governor in succession to Sir Adolphe
Uhapleau, salary $10,000 per annum.
Lucky Judge Jette ! The recipient of
big salaries, his mind should be entirely
from those sordid cares and anxieties
which beset the path way of so many of
us. But\the deal is an outrage upon
the Superannuation Fund and directly
et variance with the platform and
;pledges of the Liberals'while in Oppo-
••sition.
During the bye -election in Toronto
Postmaster -General Mulock announced
with a great hlarre of trumpete that he
'had secured a three -cent postal rate to
'Great Britain and other portions of
"-the Empire to go into effect January
let, 1828. The public took it for
3granted that a Minister of the Crown
wvauld not make so positive an
4ggohneethent, even for a tern -
paraw,'y party .ttin, i oless he load
actually obtained those benefits.
it now targe out, however, that Mr.
Mulook has not secured the three -cent
rate after .all and the consequence is
confusion in the postai service
all overe, the country. The five -cent
rate still holdeegood .and the Depart•
went has had to affix a two -cent stamp
upon the hundreds of letters dropped in
offices with a three -center only, or have
a double charge made at' the other
end. And this from Mr. Mulock who
has been so warmly praised by the
Liberal press as a model head of De-
partment.
The action of the Dominion Govern-
ment iu giving the printing of Mr. W.
Ogilvie's report on the Klondike to a
Toronto firm when it has an immense
printing plant of its own at Ottawa is
nothing short of scandalous, though
the Toronto people aro good party
workers and demanded on principle a
share oi' papa It is all nonsense to
say that the bureau could not turn, out
the report in a reasonable time, for it
is a notorious fact that the plant and
staff are capable of handling very
much more work than they do. To
make matters worse this job was given
without so much as asking for tenders.
There is a good thing in it for "the
boys" and with the Laurier Cabinet'
"Business is• Business," as you know.
Mr. Garrow, who by virtue of Tory
votes has represented West Huron in
the Legislature these past four years,
is acting as special counsel for the
Hardy Cabinet in the Humber Piggery
investigations and doing his best to so
inix and muddle the evidence that the
public may not get at the truth of the
matter. Very lawyer like to be sure,
but he might be better employed
than in• helping to cover up such a
disgraceful business its was this sale of
diseased pork. It was not for si>clt.
work that this Riding elected ltiul.
The signs foretell a Provincial elec-
tion, the 15th or 22ud February the
hest informed say, 4o that in a few
short weeks the provin_•e will be in the
midst of another exciting campaign.
Not for years have the Conservatives
approached a contest with so much
confidence. The Hardy Cabinet has
become discredited. The 'people have
become tired of it and will vote for a
change.
