THE RESULT IN WEST- HURON THE result in the recent contest in West Huron proves conclusively that in this historic political battleground the electors remember Rues. The fight was carried on by the Liberals on the line of *'Rosa and good government" And picayune WOOS were relegated to the bow -wows. '1'M Curies, un the other hand, confined them• selves to personalities and tittle-tattle. with She result that the close of the poll found them sadly in the rear. In the Wt two elections in this riding Mr. Baca fought the fight practically single- handed and alone, and his weeknees ap pealed to the electors and brought him within an ace of the goat This tame it was different both in the conduct of the cam- paign and the result. The entire Conserv. ative "Cabinet" was in the riding. sol. WHITNLT was in command, and with him were Messrs. For, MATHISoN, HtiL$. CAaeCAL-LIN and WARDELL. A large num ber of meetings were held in the interest of She Coseer atiee candidate, and in this way Mr. BOCK lost the vote that had been with him when he was unassisted is pre rims contest., when he had no ". tm ' work in hi. favor, Another fact that contributed to the In. crew in Hon. J. T. OARaow'S majority was that he had been so relentlessly pur sued in the court* by his opponenta. There was, in the opinion of many, some reason why a protest should be entered atter the exceedingly close contest of March 1, 1898. but the continuance of legal persecution atter the election of December, 1899, alien Med whatever feeling had existed on that point, and caused electors who had formerly opposer! Mr GAanow, or who had abstained from voting at the previous elec tions, to turn out os. Dec. 4th of this year sod place themeless on record in favor of the Liberal candidate. This was partici. holy :the case when Mr. GAsaow pro claimed that it was not kis intention to con tinue in political life after the present sea 6100. but that he did want an assurance trom *the people of West Huron that he still had the oonfidet)oe that they had re- posed in him in former years. and that Mr. Ewe had merely obtained a catch vote in March, 1899. The above were the reasons which led the electors to show unanimously that in so far as West Huron is concerned there is no retrograde movement in Liberalism and that the people "Remember Koss." the riding" for JAaas C0L100001 PAT - ?Samoa in 1892! - Would The Stu bayous believe that at is right for a Tory to &vuvas' and work strenuously for the election of hie candidate, and wrung for for a Liberal to do likewise for his standard bearer ! - The Mail and Empire came out a tow days after the election with • hying editori• al on the Conservative landslide in this riding, A. W. WRIGHT must have reached Toronto below The Mail went to press. - Now that the bye•election (or the Legislative Assemb:y is over let us all get together and select the lieu best qualified to make Goderich forge ahead in 1902. Let progress, not politics, be the watch- word. - The West Huron young Liberal who started to vote at the Dominion bye elec- tion of 1896 has had a busy and a successful time. He has been able to cast his ballot at seven ;elections during the six years. and he has not loot hie vote on a single occasion. - That western breakwater. which r being advocated by E N. Lewis, i.certginly a project that should commend Steel/ to thoughtful man, not only amongst mariners bol amongst landsmen. The attention of the Government should be called to the matter at An early day. -The fact that there were only twelve rested ballots in last week's election may be connected with the further fact that we have had eleven Parliamentary election* in this riding within the past twehe years. If praettoe makes perfect, the West Huron elector ought to know how to vote. - CAraott. Warden Hot?, Mao ager SApspaas, Alderman MARTIN, "Ad- miral" MCGILLICUDDY and several others are mentioned by numbers of the Reform party of Goderich as "sure winners" to succeed lura._ Qasaow when his term expires. So says The Star. We are glad to see that our contemporary recognize* the exist- ence of so much Parliamentary timber on the Liberal side of the fence. - Those people to whom "French domin- ation" ie a perpetual nightmare may be comforted somewhat by the musue returns from the Province of Quebec. The total population of Quebec is 1,645,572, or 117,• 042 more than in 1891. The French in the Province number 1,307,980, as against 1,186,346. ten years ago, an increase of 121,634, An examination of these figures will show that, in epite of the comparative ly Urge birth rate among the French Cana• dans, the percentage of increase in their numbers during the past decade is not quite as large as that of the total population of the Province. - Apropos to:t.hediscussion over the new SNAP SHOTS, railway station which it is proposed that • -The Star lut week took three columns Goderich shall have is the following from to say what might have been said in three The Sudbury Journal : "The C P.R. wait. words : "We feel sore." ingroom at the eo-called station here have ing heroine utterly unfit for women or children to terrain in, a subecription list was circulated among the business men one day this week for the purpose of miming means to mend the railway company to ..Our Tory friends are busy naming Grit erect • rnitable shelter.
