In the meantime every available voter should see to it that his nitrile is oil the list. Those Who do not wary feel like kicking themselves fur their own neglect. The New Era claims that party ser- vice should have given the office of sheriff of Huron to some other person than Mr. Reynolds. If the statement means anything it means that the Grit party are not satisfied with the appointment or the mode of making it. All this ruay be true, hilt these people will swallow their professions when an election comes on. Ottawa! News Letter. From our own Correspondent. Ottawa, April 19th.—The adjourn- ment frorn Thursday until to -morrow, Over the Easter holidays, has caused a general exodus from Ottawa and mem- ere; of parliament are as scarce here as snow storms in July. Thanks to the unpreparedness of the Government to meet Parliament, and its insistence u on proceeding with the Franchise Bill because it bad nothing else with which to sake even a pretence of go- ing on, the tine of the House bats been literally wasted, and the real business Of the Session will not begin until Thursday when the Budget will be de- livered, Just four weeks from the meet- ing of Parliament ThO Government has been devoting most of Its time dur- ing the recess to tinkering up its Tariff policy, There was a long sitting of Uquncil on Thursday and another on Baturoity and it is believed that the measure is now pretty well agreed oq. It seems to be understood that all the aftoctfon for the United States which the Liberal party•h(Ls been professing iri opposition wilt. be thrown aside and the Tariff framed as "pro British" as possible.
