Ur McLean and Mr 1101mes met at Kintall the other day, for the first time during the campaign, but the former apparently did not know the latter, for he declined to tecognize, Out Liberal Mende in the South Riding should not allow any feelings I of hospitality to endanget the return of John McMillan by a eubstemtial majority. They can giVe him pretty nearly .whatever tnajority they like. No abler agriculturiet than lie hold seat in the home, and when he retires at the end of the next parliamentary terin the riding has an abundance of able men to take his place. It le un- fair to say. as has been Raid. that Mr McMillan is holding the place for his sop ; we don't suppose such a • thought has ever entered his head, Inc Mr Mc- Millan knows tierfectiv Well that he cannot will the constituency to any one. That is for a future convention to dec de, and whatever their aspire- ations mayh'e we are certain that no person wit/ be more legal to the future choice of the Liberal party in this riding than they. It is expected that a, series of pub - lie meetings will be announced for the 1Vest Riding in a few days. S. F.

O'Brien, an old Conservative of the Conservatives, and formerly M.P. for Muskoka, at a recent public meet - lug in 'Simcoe county, said: "The sting that galled Sir Charles and his follow- ers lay in the fact that the disloyal Grits la four years had done more to cement the unity of the Empire and to bring about a right understanding of the 'British people than the Conserve - Lives did in eighteen years.
