STRAIGHTFORWARD POLICY. Ross Government Has Given Good Government. Toronto Globe. The Rows ministry have presented to the electors an rable record, and a dear, straightforward policy. This province has enjoyed unger Mr. Rows and his colleagues and their predeces- sors a system of government and leg- islation which is generally acknowl edged to be exceptionally 'good. It is the fashion of tory papers to say that the Mowat administration was excel- lent. but that it has degenerated. But in the old days Mowat, Fraser, Har dy 'and Pardes were assailed even more savagely than Ross and his col- leagues, ave to-day. They had to fight not only the Ontario opposition, but the eonservative government at Ottawa, which sought not only io strike down a ministry, but to rob the province of its territory and its resources. Reformers hold the names of Mowat, Fraser, Hardy and Par dee in something like veneration; buts it makes them sick to see these names paraded in tory newspapers for no other than to discredit their ens] odors. Of those ministers premier Rose was the honored and trusted colleagne, and be has not de parted frou their policy and their traditions, alghough he bas been open minded antl ready to accept new ideas #nd to adapt the old polity to new condition», -------------- The Finest Of God's Works. §.'W.

Hay cock, the fopmer patron leader, and several local © gentlemen, gives his friemls every confidence that be will be elected, while the recora of the Ross administration so directly ap peals to the people of the county that in their own interest, and in the infer est of good, honest and progressive government, it is firmly believid that Frontenac will be found on the Mh clecting Mr, Shibley as their represen J tative.
