L 1 '1he\\'.innipex; Fvu I`:-c..s.-s has been sent many letters descriptive of the tyranny practiced upon the poor` voters in the north west by the government`: agents and elet-~ tion. trumps. In the Crofter` settlements especially it is said that men were intimidat- ed with threats and forced to vote against their convictions, that promises were umde only to be broken. end that the makers and the breaker: of them disappeared with the close of election clay. And the experience in the Crofter settlement is no doubt the ex- porienceof the north-west generally. The tories practiced bluff and bribery without compunction of conacience. They could not do otherwise and successfully perform the duty for which they hired themselves out. Vcrily a prophet hath no honour in his own country else the friends of Queen`s'ccl_ Iege would not be so active in the develop- ment of plans looking to the increase of its usefulness. It was predicted that if the Mount government were sustained a period of decay. so far as Kingston was concerned, would set in, and that by-and-bye our mag- nicent college bliilding would be deserted or given over for the occupation of chatter- ing idiots. This was A terrible picture to draw. and the study of it has satisfied the sane portion of the populace at large that even with two uylums Kingston's wants in this respect lmve not been fullled. .__-- --,_....ap me. an (rs lu`l'1'lRl'.Vh`.\' r.
