EDITORAL NOTES.
Less than three years ago the House
of Commons listened to the thunder of
the Jove from North Toronto as he ful-
minated against the vicious system of
political patronage; less than a year
ago, we had Mr. Borden and Mr. Fos-
ter pleading for a clean civil service
without regard to politics; but to -day
we find them in line with the men who
want to .get "what is coming to them"
after fifteen years of Opposition, or in
other words, that, so far as the civil
service act will allow, the_ doctrine
shall prevail that to the victors belong
the spoils. --Ottawa Free Press.
Over $23,000 was collected in fines for
the illicitt sale of Iiquor in the mining
camps of Northern Ontario during the
past year. This may be taken as an
evidence, not of the extent to which
the law is enforced, but to the extent
to which it is violated. The illicit sale
of liquor in these place must be a very
profitable business. That men can af-
ford to pay heavy fines and still carry
on a profitable trade is shown by the
fact that they continue to pay the fines.
The aim seems to be to make a good
showing in the matter offines by occas-
ional raids, rather than to crush out
the illegal traffic --Woodstock Sentinel-
Review.
