Nor has. the I! fear that the heavy strain might be laid I upon popular condence in the judiciary turned out to have been unfounded. Mr, Ross had shaped his course in the inter- ' est of his party, and while party govern- ment prevails he would hardly. be blamed for so doing whatever the consequences to the country might be.. But the con- sequences to the conntrywere suretoi be bad. Had the public interest prevailed, Mr. Ross, instead of ghting this dark and sinister battle in the election courts, would have taken the course to which British precedents pointed, and metwith- 9` out delay the Legislature which he'hsd called. `It is impossible that a strong, '3` respectable and stable Government should. 7C be produced by suchla process as this. - ` ' tic The public meeting. called `for Friday $ evening nex_-t by the Mayor to be held in 1 ` conjunction with _the postponed meeting of_ the Board of Trade should be attended by every ratepayer who is interested in the welfare and progress of the town.

Shall - the Town of Ba}-lrrie look quietly on with stoldod -hands Without any direct representative and see this large amount of money expended, $22,000 of; which is `directly contributed by the towns and villages of the County, with_out endeavoring to secure any portion of it for her streets and `highways, or shall it all be spent under the direction of Mr. Campbell and Mr. Raikes on their township roads alone.

The town willthen have one representative and the township one, and this is as it should be. - . How to do it--The township will doubt- less look after itself--let. the town do the same, and give-a solid vote for Dr. Wells. . their own candidate. When at man divides his double vote and gives half to one candi- date and half to either of the others, he . really does not assist our own man much, because he gives equal help to the opposing man. If this is_done to any largo extent in this three-cornered light". the Town of Barrie will be without a representative for the next two years as in the past. Depend upon it. the township voters will not divide their votes to any extent with our Barrie man but will go solid for their own men. I hope the ratepayers will see the importance of guarding the welfare and prosperity of own, town in this particular and give a double vote for Dr. Wells.
