Referring to the West Huron Par- • liamentary exanoinatioo, the Goderieh Star says :- At No. 8 division, Goderich, although he poll book showed that but 118 persons had voted, 128 ballots were found in thebox. • This is ouly part of the truth, and • stated as it is, is wilful misrepresenta- tion of which the Star is unvariably • guilty, The inference' which the Star wishes to convey is that the extra bah slots in the box were counted for the. sitting member, yet the Star knows that to be untrue. ,It knows that th'e above paragraph is:a lie on its faee, but: it has no hesitation or scruple about publishing it, although the misrepre. sentation -has been corrected before; The Star is not ignoi ant of the fact that some of these ballots were blank, not counted for either of the candi- dates, and were supposed to heve been given out by the deputy, who anoin- t entionally handed two ballots to several of the voters instead for one. • R. W, ()lark, 5IcLean's scrutineer in polling sub. divi•jon No. 3, in his ex- aminattois p tge 317, swears " Q. You say there was seventy-two voteerfor. .Holmes and forty for McLean? .A. Yes. sir, Q.

Tore off two and when he folded them he fold id the two to other ?-A. -Yes. Q. Folded them just as though they were one ballot ?-A. Yes, . In the same article the Star says "The ballot printe sworethat while he Rad orders to print only 8,150 ballots, he :printed at least 8,450, and he would not swear big there were even 8,000 printed." This ie again a mistatement of fact - Mr McGillicuddy swore that for the - previutze Garrow-Beek election he had Feinted ten thousand regular ballot's and one thnusand tendered ones, and when abe Returning Officer only or- dered 6.150 tor the -Dominion election, the pt ietei:natin•elly enoogh thought he would oe shorts and printed 0,503, but Mr McGillicuddy accounted for all t hose printed over the number ordered by the Returning Officer. It is simply a distortion of his evidence to say • "he would not swear but there were even 8,000 printed," He would not swear there were not ten or fifty thousand more printed, but he stated explicitly and frankly his belief that only 6,500 were printed, all of Which he account- ed for, and the committee believed his evidence. • Political Pointers from Various Sources. Mr Valentine Winkler, M. P. P.. Rhineland, was nominated for the Commons at the Lisgar Liberal conven- tion, Mr R. L. Richardson, M, P., is the present member. •, There is nei doubt about the retires ment of Hewitt Bostock, M. P: for ' Yale, Cariboo. He has •written to a number of his constituents that he will not Le a canditate for re-election. The Liberal Association of Alberta holds a convention in Calgary on Aug. 22, for'the purpme on choosing a Fed- eral candidate. It is likelythat-Frank Oliver, editor of The Edmonton Bulles tin, will again be the choice altho he poses as an Independent Liberal. The chief 'topic for politicians at this time is, will the elections beheld in October? While there is no absolute certainty about the program of an election in •Oatober or , November, yet there is nothing to stand in ' its way. There is a rOoted ooriviotion among politicians that. Ontario is to be the main battlefield, when the fight does begin. Mull will degend upon the mope in this Province in fixing the date. From all accounts, the mops in Ontario will be good, and the farmers as a tesult in a happy, frame of mind, Threshing will be finished by October and a breathing aped given to the workere. On ever hand October is looked Immo as a good mobth in whioh to hold an election. There is another reason for an October appeal. It shout& appeal to sentimental Sir Wilfrid. It is; Why net make the eleetions eye- ohronous with the ranee of the viototious contingents, and trust return' to office on on the wave of popular joy at the mimes. ful termination of the Boer witr7 It is Unseated that the Canadians troop will be home before Cheater. From all ohms,' it mans that &Miens in Great Britain, in the United Stetes and in Caneda will be held offnultanottely in October or Novem- ber, bili an iffitiOtill public await an early oftiloial announeement beta the head of the Liberal party. -Toronto World. . s Mr e •D.

" THE CAMPAIGN IN QUEBEC lime are facts which should be borne in mind by threat who are, at, the present time, deliberately and with malice aforethought, endeavor I ing to arouse animosity between the various creeds and races of our fair Dommion. The people of Ontario and the west probably do not realize the extent to which this work is going on in the sister province of Quebec, where the election campaign is being deliberately planned Along the line of wilful duplicity. On every platform from which a French-Catialliall • and., ience is addressed the Laurier Governs : talent is attacked for ite pro British leanings; the Premier is charged With having drawn Canada into a policy of imperialism, with having sacrificed blood and treiteure in iho ware of the empire with which we have . no con cern, and to go still further in the same direction if oppm tunity should offer. Not only are the rank and file of the Tory speakets and • the Tory press operating upon these lines in the province of Chiebec, but Sir Chariee Tupper himself declares that if the present policy of the Laurier Govern went continues, "Government at Ot. tawa will dioappear, and the functions discharged there will be exercised ;it St. Stephen's. "the question of taxa. tion will be decided in England, and no . less than $46,033,000 a year would be required of Canada. as her share of the cost of the•arinv and navy." - ANOTHER STORY FOR ONTARIO This is but a sample of the wild and exttavagant statetnents being made; every issue of the French Tory papers, every speech of the French Tory po- ollcntain "similar absuidities: At the &erne time speakers alai papers for the same party are declaring in Ontario and the west that the Premier is anti-British and that his chief sup porters are traitors to the empire,.who have grudgingly taken their stand for imperialism only because compelled to do so by the overwhelming force of public .opinion. Happily for Canada the true relative position of the leaders, is pretty well uuderstood, and the electors Ithow that Sir Wilfrid Laurier was uttering the pimple truth . whea he declared - homiris place in the House of COW - mons: -11 there is anything to which I have devoted my, political I life, it is • tto try to promote unity, harmony and amity between the diverse elements of this country. : My friends can desert me, they can remove their confidence from me, they can withdrewthe trust they have laced' in my •hands,' but never shall 1 deviate from that line of policy.
