corruption wits largely the reanit of the
elm contests between the parties in
recent general eleotlona, but it ia to the
credit of the Liberal Governtnent that it
hale and is, puniehing the off enders.
The proceedings is the Belleville ballot-
boxes case is evidence of this.
It is worth while to point out the dif-
ference between the two parties in this.
coulteotioa by the cieation of a few in-
stances. The manipulation of ballots
was reduced to a science by Tory work-
ers year ago, and in no ease was any
effort made in Tory circles to get at the
guilty parties.
In Haldimand in 1891 trick ballots
were used by agents of the Tory candi-
date; in Manitoba in 189G the use of a
piece of lead pencil coucealed under the
finger nail, with whioh to put an extra
cross on Liberal ballots and spoil them,
was taught to the deputy returning
officer by one Freeborn, who confessed
the trick, and that he had got his in-
structions from Toronto headquarters.
The samewyear ballot -boxes were opened
in North Ontario and Tory ballots sub-
stituted for Grit ones, though the fellows
who worked the oracle forgot to fold the
substitute ballots and gave the snap away.
No later than last January there were
wholesale ballot frauds in Toronto, all
perpetrated in tavor of Tory candidates
for municipal offices, by Tory deputies,
who got jailed for the offense, though
without Tory assistance to any extent.
Dozens of other cases might be enum-
erated, but these are suftieient to prove
to any fair-minded man that nothing
could be gained on the score of electoral
purity by ousting a Government which
has administered the affairs of the
proviuce honestly and efficiently to re-
place it by the repreaeutatives of these
pastmasters iu political rascality.
WEST AND EAST HURON,
The Clinton New Era in summing up
the political situaiiou in West and East
Huron, says:•
In East Huron there should. be no
d ,abt whatever as to the electron of Mr.
a . Hislop, bat this very fact may be an
ei •• meat of danger. The large Liberal
il. jority iu the riding may cause apathy;
elle apathy has often defeated condi.,
d it 'a in ridiugs just as strong at this,
Liu rale should be as active in election
cuff. paigns as their opponents, who never
ease for granted that au election is sure
until they have won it. The Liberals. of
Best Huron owe it to themselves as well
as to their party leaders to see that all
their votes are recorded in favor of Hr.
Hislop, and tbue in favor of Mr. Ross.
East Huron is practically an agricultural
constituency, and Mr, .Hislop has proved
himself au able representative, being
oue of themselves, able to discuss in-
telligently all matters,chat call for peiblic
consideration.
In West Huron Mr. Cameron, who
ably represented the cousticaeucy in
the last house, is again the Liberal
candidate. He is a politician by in-
heritance as well as choice; polities were
burn into him, j net as they were into his
opponent; both come of "political"
stock, and both are, therefore, strong in
their political tendencies. In this rid-
ing, as in the others, there is a Liberal
mejority, but unfortunately the Liberals
do not always stay by party. They
show more independence than their
opponents, and the resale is that the
Liberal majority has become an un-
certain quantity. The fighting in West
Huron hes always been hard -seeming-
ly more so than in either of the other
t:o stitnencies. Political lines are more
rigidly drawn, and as there is not much
to come and go on, the contests have
latterly been very keen; but the riding
has always stood by its Liberal tendency
in local matters. Since Confederation
it has had a Liberal representative, and
there is no reason why it should change
now. With the undivided support of
the party, Mr. Cameron would easily
carry the riding. But he has a strong
opponent, one who is equally at home as
a canvasser or on the platform. If the
Liberals wish, therefore, to retain West
Huron in the Liberal ranks, if they wish
to show their appreciation of Mr. Rose
as a leader, and endorse him in the
Premiership, as they very properly
should, they must close up their ranks,
and give Mr. Cameron the undivided
support which is necessary to this end.
AN INDEPENDENT OPINION.
la discussing the pending election for
the Legislature, the Hamilton Herald,
Tud., says:
"Hardly any criticism of the Govern-
ment's administrative record is likely to
be seen or heard. That is unassailable.
By whatever means it has obtained and
maintained itself in office, the Ross Gov-
ernment has been a good Government,
so far as administration goes. It may
well be doubted if as able a ministry
could be selected from the Opposition
benches. This fact will count for some.
thing, and will go far to neutralize the
effect of the cry, "It's time for a
cbange."
*This is a perfectly impartial statement
and it is borne out by the facts. The
Noss Government is not being attacked
on its administrative record, because it
isuniformly good, and the personnel of
of the Governmenr is unassailable. The
sole ground of attack is the corruption
practiced in elections, for which the
Government is not responsible. This

NOTES ANO CQMMENTS.
The electors of West and East Horan
should "Remember Ross" by voting for
Messrs. Cameron and H€clop.
The farmers of Ontario have especial I
reason to feel grateful to the Liberal
Government for sensible and helpful
administration. No less a sump than
$307,756 was granted in 190.1 for agrioui-
Lure.
A splendid tribute to the business
methods whioh have charaoterized the
administration in Ontario ie the fact
that the Province under Liberal rule
iu 1903 received the sum of $95,357.76
as interest on investments, while the
Province of Quebec paid in interest and
oharges on her public debt no less a sum
than $1,577,583 19.
There is a net increase of 3,893 in the
immigrant arrivals in Canada for the
five months ending November 30th, as
compared with the same period of 1903
The arrivals from the United Sates were
16,610, and from Europe through ocean
ports 34,318. For the same period of
last year the immigrant arrivals from
the United States were 17,871, and from
Europe through ocean ports 28,615.
A son of the late Hon. David Mills has
gone over to the Conservatives. The
cause of his tlisjectiou is said to be fail-
ure to get a County Crown Attorney-
ship from the Ontario Government.
There are some people who think they
should monopolize the public offioes of
the country to the third and fourth
generation. The sooner all such office -
seekers leave the Liberal party the better
fur the party.
The Toronto Globe, the Montreal
Herald, The Toronto Star, and many
other leading Liberal papers have come
out with strong demands for a thorough
investigation of the alleged Blair -Russell
conspiracy, but we fail to note any re-
sponsive action on the part of the Tory
press, except The Toronto World. Why
this hesitancy on the part of the Opposi-
tion organs? Is not a conspiraoy to up-
set a Federal Government by wholesale
corruption of more importance than a
bogus ballot box fiasco which at least
could only affect two ridings? Iu the
circumstances, it is but natural to as•
sume that they fear revelations which
would not be creditable to the Tory
party. -Brockville Recorder.
THE FALL FAIRS PROBLEM.
Since assuming his duties nearly a
year ago, as Superintendent of Fairs and
Exhibitions for Ontario, tt r, H.B. Cowan
has given an amount of study and in-
vestigation to the workings of the Agri-
cultural and Arts Act, with reference to
fall fairs, which can hardly be appre-
ciated by the average citizen, and, as a
result, there is a probability of many
changes being made in the act and a
possibility of great improvement in the
working of fall fairs and an enlargement
of the scope of agricultural societies.
In order that these advantages and
pessibilities may be fully discussed by
the members of agricultural and horti-
cultural societies, and their wishes be
expressed through their delegates at the
annual meeting of the C*iadian Fairs
and Exhibitions Association in Toronto
next February, Mr. Cowan has prepared
ri
an exhaustive report of the origin, history
and working of these societies, showing
defects in and violations or evasions.
of the Act, what might be done as an
alternative (and in many cases an im-
provement) to the holding of fall fairs,
and, indeed, about all that could be said
on this wide and very important subject.
This report will be invaluable to all per-
sons in any way interested in horticul-
ture and agriculture, and we are glad to
be able to say that arrangements have
been made by whioh it will be laid be-
fore readers of the TIMES in its entirety.
It will be published in time to allow all
the societies interesred to discuss it at
their annual meeting, and a result we
look for a revived interest in these much
neglected gatherings, which should mark
the beginning of a new era in the hold-
ing offall fairs, and other agricultural'
and horticultural operations.
The Hossack Letter.
The Opposition is making some capi-
tal out of an exceedingly intemperate
letter addressed to Hon. Mr. Roes by
Rev. D. C. Hossack, of Deer Park, Tor-
onto. The Toronto Telegram records
the following interview with Mr. Henry
Swan, one of the members' of Mr. Hos-
sack's church:
"Why did Mr. Hossack frame and
publish the letter, do you think?"
"Oh, the reason is a small one, very
small. I shouldn't like to mention it."
"If not prompted by political motives,
nor by a purely public sentiment, what
could the motive be?" said the reporter.
"Well," responded Mr. Swan, "the
letter was produced by a very small and
personal matter between Mr. Ross and
Mr. Hossaok. If you were to say that
Mr. Ilossack asked Mr, Ross for some-
thing and didn't get it you would be
about right."
Another member of the church, Mr.
Selwyn Marks, says:
"1 ehanicin't yonder but , time the
jsautanee fit thio letter on the part of the'.
min€titer is but preparatory to his accept -
ting >iv Cabinet position with the Opposi-
tion. Frequently I have heard Mr. Hos-
sack say something political, and then
cut it off, in a semon seeing people
didn't like it, to return to it again and
again on saooeeding Snndaya."

Queen Alexandra and .all the members
of the present Royal family love the
sea. Any oiie who saw the youthful
mother of the Prince of Wales for the
first time would little associate hs
with "seafaring." And yet she finds
tlio most congenial recreation yacht&;
ing with her family in one of that
numerous floating palaces, which are
I cruising about the seas.,
Princess Victoria, who has been vary,
delicate at times, wont off with hes
lady-in-waiting earlier in the season
on a cruise along the British coast,
and the Duke of York -Prince of
'Vales -is said never to be happier
than when at sea, and his little sons
are instructed in every branch of
"sea lore•" The Duchess of rife does
not spend so much of her tune at
sea as the other, but is a most ex-
pert angler; and is said to tramp
long miles in pursuit of her favorite
sport.
Queen Alexandra has never been a
"sport," but she loves the sea, and
always on her journeys to her native
home takes the longest way rounds
that she may enjoy a holiday on the
ocean. The King has ever` delighted
in yachting, and since his serious ill-
nesses has always sought health and
strength on a cruise in the Solent:
One of a large firm of shipbuilders
said the other day that this love of
the sea in the Royal family had giv-
en a great impetus to the fashion
among rich people for what to hie
trade meant good custom. "What
the King does not know about the
designing and sailing of ships is pre-
cious little, and the little sons of the
Duke of York are already familiar
with all the nautical terms used by
yachtsmen." The Princess Henry of
Battenburg and her children are fort
ever taking short cruises along the
British coast.

Strange Myths of Thibetans.
Besides believing so fully in the
powers of magic and necromancy, the
Thibetans have numberless strange
myths, one, the most curious, per-
taining to the sun, nioon and stars,
The sun is believed to be an im-
mense ball of yak -meat and fats
whereupon the spirits of departed an-
cestors are supposed to feast, the-
light
heIight being caused by its heated con-
dition. The stars are portions ot
this immense feast which, dropping
to earth, give birth to animals for
the sustenance of suffering humanity.
The moon is a lesser ball of similar
texture as the sun; in use while the
larger one is being replenished for
the morrow: When sun or moon
fails to appear in cloudy days and
nights, it means that the deities, are
undergoing a period of fasting and
religious abnegation. And the
parched and sterile condition of
bleak regions is ascribed to the fact
that many thousand years ago the
sun -ball slipped from the hands of
its keepers; descended too near the
earth, and, before being recaptured.,
scorched those parts with which it.
came 131 contact.
'Platonic Friendship.
"It is worse than wicked, it's vul•
gar," says Miss lbdda Friederichs,
"to pretend that friendship between
a elan and a woman must of neces-
sity develop into an intrigue Or a.
love affair. Men and women, whose
interests in life centre round ever se
many things of which what is gen-
erally called love may or may not
longer be one, are just made to Ire
gpod friends, the manly views Oa
the ono hand and the womanly viowat
On the other making up the elements
which go towards all that is best
in friendship, and adding a Son} at
constant piquancy to intercourse
which must naturally be lacking
intimate friendship between two peo-
ple of the same sex, be they men or
woolen."
