'J, MITCIIELI,, • • Editor and Proprietor. HERE AND THERE, Mr. James Mitchell is carrying on his campaign in West Iluron quietly but none tite less vigorously. he. is meeting with such ,encouragement all along. the line that .nothing but' brib- ery 'and those other devices, in which the Ross Government officials are so. proficient, can bring ttbotlt his defeat. As is customary, all sorts of stor- ies are being circulated reflecting up-. utt his steaming as a temperance man, etc. it would be.tiresome to follow and nail all• these lies, or•to locate the persons who are ,broadcasting them, but it is none the less deplor- able that such tactics should bere- 'sorted to.. We fancy it is useless to appeal to this class of politicians for a decent campaign, no matter how nsuch• all right thinking men and women desire it..— , - • The attempts to dethrone Mr. Cami- eron have apparently tailed. and he continues to be the nominee.-of.the Liberals. 1 a s.

Anti now• he asks --colder conditions imposed practically by the licluur men ---for a vote of 30,000 more than was then cast and under most adverse and unjust conditions. Listen to Mr. Holmes once more : :' In our opinion prohibition is all right, but it is not by any means the only fac- tor that should figure in reference to it government." les, it "is all right" but it must . not interfere with our party. That was. Mr, li's policy also in 1906 and could excuse Mr. Laurier's 1 plebiscite 8 t tco 1 on# attitude99 I voted for Mr. Ross but I put prohi- bition and purity before party and. will therefore vote to put him • out for his attitude and conduct as de- scribed above. " But Mr. Whitney is opposed to prohibition," says one. Yes, he says so, but his party have never yet been asked and consequently have never pledged themselves to give prohibition as Mr. Ross slid; and then deceived us. Does Mr, H. think the thousands of temperance people, who have expressed the 'strongest sondem- nation of Mr. Ross (and many of the Liberals, too) can swallow such twad- dle as lie dished up and say that noth- ing has been done " unproper." • West - Iluron and West Elgin I suppose are all right too, nothing "unproper." 11 Mr, Whitney be put -in power he will be asked to 'legislate as was Mr, Ross and if he declines or promises -and 'fails, out he lutist go, And •.-let the process go -on till they are niade to 'feel that no party can treat with levity the expressed wish of the ma- jority, April 31St. ANTI -HUMBUG. A MIX UP IN WEST HURON'. ' • The Liberals of West Iluron are not Happy. They have a candidate who is not acceptable toa large number' of ' the electors of the constituency and there • is actually in•eireulatiou . today. in Goderich township, . Wingliain and other Municipalities in the riding_ a petition requesting .Mr. M. G. Camer- on to step down and'out. Things have, forsooth, coins • to a pretty pass when•. a group of Ontario Liberals dare stanch up and boldly _protest against. a nomination by its • party when that -nomination has' been' eudorscd at Toronto.. A traveller representing one .of the large brewing houses of the province said to The' News -Record the • other - day : " Mr. Ross does not want • to give prohibition, but having pledged himself so often to the. temperance: people he had to do something, . so - brought in the referendum Which.. has made a mess of proliibitioii to the Queen's taste." The temperance. peop- le are now beginning to realize this • fully.• The Ross Government asks to. be re-. turned to power in order to build up• New Ontario. Liberal Governments have. ruled .this- province• forthirty, years, ample time to have' accotn-' 'dished such great things in the way. of -development that the term "New" would now scarcely apply, but .the tact remains that settlers north of.- the great lakes are yet few fn number: New" - Ontario remained • compar- atively unknown until men of -the Clerguc stamp invested their millions in the country. - • Sir Wilfred I,aurier is anxious to, get' away to Europe so the Dominion Parliament is expected to prorogue this week. The • session has been un- eventful except to show how great a power the big corporations have. The rumor has been current that Sir Wil- frid wished to retire, but it lacks foundation. There is altogether too much of the theatrical in- the mail of " sunny similes" to wish to, retire - from public view. • FAITHLESS POLITICIANS CALLED TO ACCOUNT. - (To the Editor of The News -Record.) Mr. Editor,—In the editorial of the New Era of April 25th the editor states " no elector can lay his hand on any particular transaction of the Government and say it was an un- proper or scandalous act." - What about the action of Mr. Ross and his colleagues in caucus. and in voting clown all amendments to the referen- dum ? Scores of petitions and priv- ate letters es were sent to said icl• gentle- men at that critical Moment asking for two things only, but the liquor men held the whip over Mr. Ross and in cold blood, while his wife lay dead, his colleagues in the most frivolous manner voted down the reasonable amendments asked for. And' did not Mr. Crawford rebuke thein for their levity ? Read the story of the refer- endum, as given by those wlio know the inside track, and then ask in the language of Mr. Holtues " Is that an. unproper act ?" There have been many weak excuses putt forth for their wobbling on the temperance question, but. I confess the New Era's is the weakest I have seen, Listen ; " Ev- ery temperance advocate should stip- port the Government of Mr,os R sr He promises . that if lie is returnee and the )rcferen ries, he will i troduce a pr. aw."
