World makes a silly blunder oi is guilty ol the grossest deception in regard to its implied in terpretation law respecting the County Sheriff and his relations to the constabulary doing duty at the General Sessions In the first place it censures- him for not having a spe- ambulance lor carrying prisoners te and the jail yet it ignores the fact that neither Sheriff nor Mowat are required by law i to furnish a vehicle that character at their own expense for the benefit of the Province Then again the EWorld sets itself up as a sort of second Daniel come to judgment and intimates that the Sheriff underpays his constables although everybody sufficiently informed to be able mtel- to criticize our municipal or criminal system knows perfectly well that County or City Constables are not paid by Sheriffs neither is the amount of stipends they receive fixed by Sheriffs but by Provincial statute The West Durham election case was brought to a close on Saturday at The seat was voided and a new election ordered The Judges agreed that bribery was proven on part an agent of Thornton This finding was thought sufficient by all parties and the court declared vacant the seat was never fill ed No decision was given on the marked cheque controversy The question of costs has yet to be deter mined by the court The report published in some journ als to the effect that the soldiers who received land grants would have to settlement dues thereon is denied by Hon Mi Davis Commissioner of Crown Lands Id a recent interview ha said that the bill making the grants clearly provided against settle duties being paid by soldiers The Government he said bad even gone further and had provided against the 160 acres being touched any debts The only taxes the soldiers have to pay are school taxes to this unfair criticism of city the Hamilton Times makes the following cons ent The Toronto World which 7 has had a big sharp knife out for Sheriff now demands that he should be dismissed for permitting the tragedy of Tuesday Why not call for the dismissal of all of Toron tos police and detectives for the throwing of revolvers into the prison cab There Is just about as much reason for one demand other- But the Toronto Slar to scent the underlying cause for this arraignment of the Sheriff when it says When the World in its relentless pursuit of political advantage for its proprietor in Bast York criticises Sheriff Widdi field it makes so free with the facta that it defeats itself and exposes Its purposes Possibly the P for East York in his demand for the Sheriff dismissal has a fanciful no tion that the prospective Whitney- Foster combination in North Toronto may be able to defeat the present Government at the approaching gen eral elections in which case this de mand for the Sheriffs official head can be executed to the special advan tage the man who thinks he knows more law than specially called upon to administer the same But there are other Toronto papers the EWorld which criticize the County authorities for not having a special van for the conveyance of prisoner from the jail to the court house oi vice versa and they too censun without authority Under law persons remanded to Jail tor trial charged with crimes committed against the Dominion Code at once become Provincial or State prisoners and a special ambulance van is re quired by the Provincial authorities let the same be furnished by the Gov ernment Council of York is not called upon to provide any such van except for the con veyance such prisoners as may have offended against municipal by laws Under this Countys present relationship to the City both munlcl- one judicial district and were a prisoners BlackMarle a necessity both municipalities and Government Ontario would be to con- towards cont and main tenance in just proportion at each now contribute towards the expense ol criminal justice If our in Toronto who teem to manliest so ardent a desire to have a al County officials and County Councillors would only take the tsouble to Inform whereof The statement made by the Ottawa Citizen to the effect that Sir Oliver had been invited to give up Government House for the use of the and Duchess of Cornwall but he declined to do so is flatly contradicted In reply to a Globe reporter respecting the statement Mist Mowat of the said they had not been ask ed to give up Government House On Tuesday referring to this same rumor the Citizen Hon Mr Ross stat ed that their Royal Highnesses would be the guests of Sir Oliver during their stay in Toronto and that their Exoellencies Lord and
