To our mind the two Moat objection-
able features of the increased indem-
nity are the pensioning of •previous
ministers, and the extra indemnity ; to
_the Senators. • • •
It is undoubtedly true that some
men .who. have faithfullygiven their
time and abilities to the performance;
of state duties, have retired just as
poor as whein•they entered public life
l t is•al=o tine that " others have im,
proved their opportunities and retired
wealthy.' •But that is neither here nor
there, . We object to the.pension sys-
tem. Itis nota good system to per-
petuate, and we do not think it •wise
to introduce it into Canadian piiblio
life. Perhaps there are arguments
that justify it. but we , have not yet
heard, them advanced. r
We 'have never. believed. in, the Sen,
ate and do not believe in it now. We
believe its entire abolition would meet
with popular. approval. The Liberal
party never aid have a great deal of.
love for it when in Opposition ;' the
Conservativeshave leas ciu'iv'—If-caa
never • be " made . a useful institution;

MUSKOKA.
: The takeof Ba s•regien of Muskoka :I
lies east • from unv1 e, a c
able village on the northern' branch, of
the G. T. 'lt., which hoists two exten-
sive industries,.lumberingand tanning,
the .water power for these extensive
works being furnished by . the river
which runs through the villa e.. Leav-
ing Huntsville by the G. ' R. Co,'s
supply boat,,' which starts' from the
station wharf, and alse calls at. the vil-
lage wharf near the swing bridge on.l
Main street, the tourist passes up the
river into Fairy Lake, then 'out of
Fairy Lake through. a narrow channel
into Peninsular Lake, at :the upper
end of 'which is a portage about a mile
long.. Across tliisportage, which rises•
more than 100 feet to the Lake. of Bays,
a narrow gauge railway had been con-
structed. An old-fashioned -engine
which is fired': with r.'ood, , a flat. car,
and a street car, constitute the train
on this .track, . The journey across. is
made in afew 'minutes. Our ear. was
filled with passengers, and the fiat otic
well loaded with freight; the morning
'the writer crossed to the Lake of. Bays.:
.Here two supply- boats' lay at the wharf
awaiting the arrival of tourists for dif-
ferent points. The Lake of Bays has a
coast line of abhut 400 miles, which is,
as the name implies, indented with in-
numerable .hays. Cottages and sunt' -
mer resorts clot the shores at interyals.
until you reach Dorset, at. the head of
the lke. The Robson • farm, within
eight miles of Dorset on the north side
of the lake, is a popular resort, : Here,
in a meadow, • amid the nevi -mown hay,
ten feet above the water, where the
rocky shore is lined with pine. cherry,
poplar, cedar, elm, birch and willow,
the Rey, R. M. Manning and his son
Gordon have pitched their tent, with
the,beautifulsheet of water called Ten
Mild Bay in fr"ont, ..and the rocky;.
wooded hills, towering to an immense
height, on either side.—Cox.
The NEW Eat has' 'the best possible
authority for saying that the Ontlirio
Government intends to,•fill some of the
`offices in Goderich, .now held by Liber-
als, with its own friends.

The. Toronto SVerld charges that the
system of graft: is so prevalent at Ot
tawa, that :some linen bought for . the
Speaker was stolen..Thats' nothing,
Under a former regime, the entire fur-
nishingsof the Speaker's quarters, rep-
resenting an outlay of -thousands,' was
stolen by the Speaker and taken to his
home.
'Let's see'? Wasn't it the Goderich
Star, in its ante -election support of
Mr. E. N. Lewis, that predicted . his
knowledge. of marine: matters would
bring untold blessing ta,,tlle people of
Goderich, if they only elected'him.
We don't want to be too inquisitive,
brit perhaps the Star will tell us what

plished,'
