The Ottawa Journal says :-Pos-

Liberal Noabs to see if there are
signs of the high tariff flood abat-
ing. Later on the "sunny ways"

they have evidence of unparalleled
corruption in the North Grey cam-
paign, According to the provisions
of the law two circuit judges will
sit on the case. Mr. Boyd is satis-
fied that he will be counted in on
the scrutiny, and is confident that
the Liberal candidate will not only
lose his seat but be disqualified,as
well. However, in four weeks the
courts will be at it, and Mr. Ross'
splendid majority of one will again
be wobbling in the balance, though
the Liberals hope that it will not
be found wanting.

--A traveller, who recently
spent seven months in New Zea-
land, gives in a current periodical
his impressions of that country.
He is not favorably impressed
with the climate, as it is foggy.
Rent is high ; wages are higher
than in England, but cost of living
is higher by 25 per cent. There
are fewer stoppages of work from
strikes than in any other country,
thanks chiefly to the principle of
compulsory arbitration ; but this
however, he says, is by no means
working quite smoothly. It is
quite on the cards that the men
may take action for its -repeal, and
that the employers may be found
defending it. He is pleased with
the New Zealand Factory Act,
chiefly because it forbids any boy
or girl with a less wage than $1.25
a week being employed,, and also
because it fixes the hours of adult
males at forty-eight per week, and
those of women at forty-five. The
railways are in the hands of State,
and the people having one person,
one vote, and all elections on one
day, have government under better
control than is the case in
England.
-On Saturday, the hearing of
ten election, and eight cross peti-
tions was transferred to Toronto for
October 28th, which means that
they will probably be dismissed
when called. Among them are
South Huron against H. Eilber,
and cross petition against W. Y.
McLean, and West Huron against
M. G. Cameron. This will leave
twenty-four instead of thirty-four
petitions upon which the battle in
the courts will be fought, and nine
instead of seventeen cross petitions.

The Royal Commission on the
Financial condition of the Province
of Ontario in its report said -"The
methods of the department and its
financial records are excellent
and have been so for many years.
The receipts by the various depart-
ments of government are evidently
paid over to the treasurer with
promptness." The truth of the
matter is that the system of book-
keeping is so wretchedly bad, the
audit so imperfect, and the pay-
ments in some cases held back so
long, that it was possible for a gov-
ernment official to become a de-
faulter to the extent of $40,000 or
more. That it is time for a change
is again proven to be a. truthful
statement.
* " *
-The contract for the construc-
tion of the Temiskaming Railway
was hist week awarded by the com-
mission to A. R. Macdonell, of
Glengarry, who was the lowest
tenderer. The contract calls for
110 miles of road, clearing the
right of way, grading, ballasting,
bridging and tract?; -laying ready
for operation. The commission
will furnish rails, fastenings, and
the superstructure for the bridge
at Montreal River. The contrac-
tor, on the other band, is to manu-
facture the ties, culverts, fence
posts and telegraph poles from the
timber along -the right of way. $
separate contract will be required,
however for an additional 200,000
ties ; this will complete the first 60
miles, which must be finished by
Dec. 31st, 1903.

The Story of Morning Tiredness.
Is told by impure blood, poor digestion,
sluggish liver and tired nerves. It is a
warning of very serious trouble ahead
and should prompt sensible people to
take bracing tonic like Ferrozone, an
energetic invigoraut and rebuilder.
Ferrozone will give you a sharp appetite,
promote good digestion and sound sleep,
it will feed and energize the enfeebled
organs, strengthens the nerve and vital
forces and regulate the heart. Fer-
rezone changes that tired feeling into
vigor, strength and ambition and does
it quickly. Remember the name, and
insist on having only Ferrozone; it's the
best tonic made. Price 50o. per box, or
6 boxes for $2.50, at Druggists or Poison
& Co., Kingston, Out. Sold by A. L.

-This is the way an Australian
newspaper lets loose on the des-
cription of King Edward's power -
"King Edward is sovereign over a
continent, 100 peninsulas, 500 pro-
montories, 100 lakes, 2,000 rivers
and 10,000 islands. He waves his
hand and 900,000 warriors march
to battle to conquer or to die ; he
bends his head, and. 100,000 sailors
perform his bidding and at his sig-
nal 1,000 ships of war obey his
commands on the ocean. He
walks on the earth and 300,000,-
000 human beings feel the least
pressure of his foot, The Assyrian
empire was not so populous. The
Persian empire was not so power-
ful. The Carthaginian empire was
not so ranch dreaded. The Span-
ish empire was not so widely dif-
fused. The Roman empire was
weak in cop#parison, and Greece
was a small village,
