CHURCH, LONDON, PASSES A
RESOLUTION . CONDEMNING.
THE' REFERENDUM.
Last Friday night at a. meeting of
the Quarterly Oficial Board of the
First Methodist church, London, the
following resolution was passed :
"'l hat this Quarterly Board desires
to place on record its entire disap-
troval of the Referendum of Dec. 41
ISo2, it being framed so clearly in
the interests of the liquor sellers as
to render it an insult to the temper-
ance people of this province.
" And we would urgently request
the district meeting to petition the
approaching annual conference to call
upon the Motels of temperance within
.lie boundaries of said conference to
utterly repudiate and ignore the said
Rtftrtndum and to seek by other
means to secure the prohibition of the
liquor traffic in this province."
TI -JE HENSAL.I. CONVENTION.
'I. he temperance convention held in
Iii nsall on Friday last was not as
successful as many of the friends of
prehibitian could have expected. The
candidates had been asked to state
their position. Mr. MaLeau declared
himself as heartily in sympathy with
the action of the Ross Administra-
tion, while Mr. Eilber would not
Lind himself by any pledge. The pos-
ition of each candidate was brought
before the members of the convention
in order that they might determine
the last what action the prohibition party
he poi- should take as a whole. Mr. Me -
to the Ie. anis reply was objected to on the
achine. giound that it was not a a+erional
kept opinion, but rather a clinging to his
eking own party. After some debate, how

'(00 LONG IN OFFICE.
One of the worst effects of the long
continuance of one party in office is
the building up of a body of individ+
na's who make their living in the
govuntnc•nt employ ; devote them-
selves in return to tate art of carrying
e;ectiom: in its favor and through the
k',owliege and influence which they
.has acquire become a force which•ito
governinent can ignore. The failure
of the Ontario government to punish
a single Indivictttal connected with the
clearle established election frauds in
West Elgin and North Waterloo shows
the power of the same class of men in
Ontario politics today. The feeling
that has been aroused in its own fol-
lowing through its failure to act with
promptness -and force in connection
with these crimes constitutes one of
the greatest dangers which now. con-
front the Ontario Government.—Week-
