MAJORITY FOR WHITNEY , •
The elections are over. The electors
spoke most emphatically against the
trickery and corruption that sustained
the Ross government in power.
West Huron is a tie, but when the
recount is completed, Major. Holmes

feat of .Tames Bowman in the East
riding is much to be regretted.
As near as can be ascertained, the
following are elected. There may be
a few changes in the Iist, but a tele -

NOTE AND COMMENT.
71
27
44
—The "barnacles" must go.
-Whitney's majority is a stunner.
—The campaign is over, even the
shouting.
—Ontario expects Mr. Whitney to
do his duty ; the electors have done
theirs nobly,
—Major Hohnes put up a hard clean
fight, and it is almost certain that a
recount will elect him.
—Whitney has a galaxy of able
men around him. Ontario will expect
reform and good government.
—Ontario's sacred duty was to
shake off the shackles of a corrupt
government, She did it grandly.
—Just think of it -156 for Major
Holmes in Wingham 1 We're abun-
dantly satisfied ; could scarcely expect
more.
—The Conservatives received the
election returns in the Town Hall by
the G. N. W., and the Liberals in their
rooms by the 0. P. R.
—"Isn't the old man a corker?" was
the exclamation of Cap. Sullivan,
when he heard that G. W. Ross didn't
"know Cap. Sullivan."
—Pshaw, Goderieh ! You are not
in it with Winghatn for a good, hand-
some Tory majority ; really Wingham
ought to be the County Town.
—Ontario gave no uncertain sound
on Wednesday, against Ross, corrup-
tion and broken pledges. The vote is
evidence that Ontario declares for
clean elections.
—The Sullivans do not seem to take
kindly to the statement of Premier
Ross, to the effect that he "does not
know them." Frank thinks this is
, very shabby of G. W. Ross, after all
they (the Sullivans) have done for him.
—Wingham rolled up the biggest
majority in its history -156. Earnest,
faithful work, aided by the sins of the
Ross Government, made this possible.
The majority shows that even in
Wingham there are some Liberals
who believed, that it was "time for a
change" and voted accordingly.
—In this vicinity the campaign was
an exceedingly quiet one—perhaps the
least exciting of the many campaigns
that West Huron has seen. Yet it
was, nevertheless, prosecuted with
energy. Conservatives worked ener-
getically and unitedly ; there was no
split in their ranks. More reliance
seems to have been put upon system-
atic, persistent canvass than upon
public meetings.
—The trial of those concerned in the
Soo election rasealities is going on.
To the shatne of the Ross Government
be it said, that the prosecution had to
be undertaken by private persons.
Lack Kennedy, who conducted the
Minnie M pluggers to the voting
places, has confessed and implicates
Smith, the Liberal member who was
unseated, Coyne, Sutherland and
Vance. The latter, who was the Gov-
ernment organizer, told Kennedy he
would be well paid for his work,
—Mr. Whitney's closing words to
the electorate declared for free, hon-
est ballot. He pledges himself thus
"The ballot shall be protected
alnd thetetsons who 1ro `1 '
esc,crato
that instrument through which
the people declare their views,
shall be punished. The corrup-
tionist 511a11 not be permitted to
dictate the principle upon which
Ontario shall be governed."
That's right, Mr. Whitney a-. ballot
thieves, switehets, pluggers, persona -
tors and bribers must be punished, no
txtatter who they aro. Give tis clean
elections, and you shall have the last-
ing gratitude of a long-suffering peo-
ple. Ontario will expect you to carry
ons your pledge.

—Jas. Carruthers, a Montreal grain
merchant, who has just returned from
Chicago, says Minneapolis millers are
at present buying freely of Manitoba
wheat, and if this continues it certain-
ly will have a tendency to advance
prices in Manitoba. He declares fur-
ther, that the United States will have
practically no wheat for export and
what is available will be of a Iow
grade. He believes, further, that the
United States has practically ceased
to be a wheat -exporting nation, as the
available acreage of wheat -growing
lands has reached its maximum, while
the population of the country is rapid-
ly increasing.
Thos. Armstrong is going to travel

W. J. Francis jr., publisher and en-
tertainer, of London, is in town this

ful enterprise.
NOTICE.—As 1 am going on the road
