THE GERRYMANDkR.
The get rymander tit Huron , 1)
,reported from Toronto this week is

the electont of Hansa by sio dividing
the come y 144 secure a majority of
smite from a ininoi ity of votes, and to,
tarry our this design the principles
that should govern in the making of
eonstitieeticies have been o iuhaterl in
the most barefaced (wiener.
Under the present division of the
county for Provincial electthere
are three compact ridings, and a refer-
ence to the map will show that in this
important respect the preaeut arrange-
ment could not be improved upon.
The only objection that could be
urged against it is that two town-
ships, Goderich and Hullett, are
divided, and, although this division of
the townships tends Le compactness; in
the ridings, there could be no reason-
able objection to a rearrangement
which Would lIniteth: rPparriterl por-
tions of township... Neither wield
there be any general emnplaint from
the public if in playing the party
game the Conservatives should make
other changes in order to arrange the
ridings a little re to their liking:
but in the wholesale carving which
they have done they have absolutely
disregarded the piddle interest and
have indeed thrown aside every eoli•
sideration but that of party advant-
age.
One of the fundamental pt Mendes
that should be older% rd 111 the coretti-
tut; of a riding ro( 'ty of
interest, and this principle has leen
att•ociourly violated in the new ar-
rangement. Though geographically
separated.by the townshipm of Gude-
rich and Stanley, the town of Godes
r-ich atid the township if Teeter -
;smith now find themselves in the same
riding. Colhorote, on the extreme
west, and Grey, on the extreme enst,
of this big county are in the same rid-
ing, Colborne being them dissociated
(nun the townships of Ashfield and
IVawanosh, with whose. people the
residents of Colborne hiive •h in
commuu. Perhaps the greatest ("ga-
rage of all is in the constitution of the
northern riding. Ashlield and %Wawa -
meals ono the one side. and Turnberry
end 11. ow ick, on the other, are torn
/may from their militia1 associations
and tits1 together in as narrow fringe
forty miles from'end to end. It is
about the s • •Iistance from the
northern boundary of Goderich Lowe -
ship to the far-off cimfittes of Usliorne.
In fact, anyone knowing the comity.
or anyone who takes as hook at the
county tamp. will ,,alizi• that the
whole arra togement would be matter
for ridicule if it were riot. tintrageoits.
