The fact is, however, that there are a number of balls in Lindsay patron- ized on occasions by the public when: there seems to be no pretence even. of protection for the public in case or fire. Fraternal societies have nails on the second and third storey, with steep and winding stairways that would‘ prove veritable death traps in case 01 the breaking out of fire, and as women ; and children are often patrons of en 1 tertainments held in these halls the danger from fire and panic is all the more pressing. The hotels in Lindsay have recently Men required to provide proper tire to the public in case of fire.

But it the object was to reply to the item referring to Woodville trade con- ditions. there are several more letters teqnired. The Free Press at present does not desire to uphold or contradict the views of the gentleman from Wood- ville who said that that village was injured by local option. He is sup- ported in his view by a large major- ity of the travelling public and by the commercial travellers, who are cer- tainly in a position to know. The Free Press, however, feels a certain{ responsibilityior the item, because it was published in these columns, and on that account, desrres to protest against the twisting of what was said, ’{ The Post’s correspondent draws in- ferences that were not suggested by’ the item, and makes statements that are unsupported by any evident facts.

It is noted, however, that the “general mer- chants” have not forgotten to drop into skilled reference to their own big business, to their “cash sales”, and so on. so the advertising value is not al- together lost.

In the concluding part of that sent, ence The Whig exposes the real dif- flculty to all reform and all good gov- ernment. "The Government might act no credit for its action I” The answer is that the Government should not be- looking for “credit.” The Govern- ment should place its whole efforts tr» wards the best interests of the coun- .ry, towards righteousness and fair- iesa and progress â€" and let credit go iang.

Letrne: The trouble then lies in the partis- anship of the Senate. The majority of Canadian public men and public gnewspapers recognize this. The 'Kingston Whig, for instance. 'is quite ‘willing to admit this dificulty, but it sees no remedy at hand that seems ex- pedient. “The Government" says The 'Whig, “could call a Conservative to office occasionally but it might get no‘ credit for its action.” The partisan nature of the present Senate is admitted by even rabid party F papers, and it is this partisan caste 1that prevents in large measure the lusetulness of the assembly. The Sp.- nate, as at present constituted, is simply a tool in the hands of the party leaders. This has been shown on more than one occasion, and there is no benefit achieved in blaming this state of affairs on the Liberal party.‘ for under Conseravtive rule the same idea held true on the other side. i ‘ There is no thinking Canadian who {believes that the Senate as at present constituted is a proper or useful as- sembly. While a great many are strongly in favor of the abolition of this appendage to the governmental constitution, the majority of Cana- dian citizens would be content for the present at least with some proper mes»; sure of reform. } 'lthe L. H P. Company’s poles to the canal should make this means of lighting easy and not too expensive While this paper was strongly sup- ported in this contention bv a number of the people of the district, the canal authorities did not secure the (’M-ér» ed improvement. It is to be sincere. 1y hoped, that steps will be taken this year to properly light the chan- nel so that night navigation. which is so necessary during the season. should not be needlessly exposed to incon~ venience and danger. If the Govern~ ment took the matter up with tho. L. H. P. Company, The Free Press sees no reason why a satisfactory.me- thnd of lighting the channel should not he arrived at without unnecessary cost or unnecessary delay. Last year The Free Press fought a lone battle to have a proper remedy applied. The Free Press directed the ,attention of the authorities to the fact that it should be possible to cheaply and properly light the whole channel by electric light. The proximitv of {I The beautiful weather the beginning got this week reminded a certain town v‘citizen, (who loves only Lindsay and ’a certain roaring game better than Sturgeon Point) of the joys of the sum- mer time and the health, the happi« ness, and the freedom of “down the ri- ver.” The enthusiastic remarks of ‘the gentleman being duly repeated reminds one of the dangerous disad- vantages of those river trips that might. and should be. iust as safe as they are enjoyable. One disadvant- age is the lack of proper artificial light for the. channel. The lighthous- es erected a couple of summers ago are certainly a help, but they are not ade- quate, and as the river is used so much at night both danger and inconveni- ence result from the lack of proper light.

A gentleman of the law who has no ticed some references in these columns to law reform counters with the prop- osition that there is also much ro- form needed in journalism.
