James Young, of Galt, ou the "Reform of the Senate," which appeared in the Globe last week, has renewed the discussion regarding the method of dealing with that body. Mr, Young. oousidered the proposal for abolition of the Senate and showed that although this would probably please Ontario eleotors Quebec and Maritime Provinces. were strongly opposed to it The second alternative, that of makingthe Senate representative of the various proviocee of the Dominion' with power given to their legislatures of electing the Senators, would not, said Mr. Young, work satisfactorily tender our Canadian constitution. The third alternative, that of an elective S.nate chosen by the people, appealed to Mr. Young as the only true and logical method of appoint- ing the members of the Senate, or of any other parliamentary body. Mr. Young's conclusion, arrived at after long years of consideration, is that a moderate number of Senators should be elected for ten or twelve years by large ridings composed of three or fourcounties,both a reasonable property qualification for candidates and electors. Thus, said he, as the present life members gradually disappear, there will arise a new Senate more worthy of Canada, being entirely representative of and responsible to the TII1 WINGI3A!

To a man of ordinary sense it should be clear. that advertising apace is sold jest as a landlord rents his hoose to a tenant. It is purely a business matter. The advertiser may say what the editor- ial page disapproves, but the reader understands this and be chooses wooed- ing to his judgment. So long as an advertisement is not fraudulent the transaction between the newspaper and the purchaser of the space mast be per- fectly legitimate, while the presence of the advertisement is not regarded byany sane person as a guarantee of thgoods or of the soundness of anyopinion x - pressed. In the case of Dr. leesbitt the reader was at liberty and was quite competent to choose between the opinion of that person given by The Globe and that framed by Record. people.

If the people wanted him to serve he would do so, but he considered that he conferred nferred a greater favor on the people by them than they conferred on him by electing him. On those terms he was a candidate: The Sentinel -Review says . that, unusual as it was to hear a candi- date speak in that way, the electors heartily applauded.

Itiany small lots of good fruit are sacrificed in the wholesale market' of our large cities because they, are' lost sight of in the great bulk of stuff ", arriving.
