It has given a strong but intelligent and independent sup- port to the liberal cause, and'it has disenssed public affairs with dignity and moderation. His election would be an advantage not only to King ston but to the province. London Advertiser : E. J.

Toronto Star. The question is asked why the On tario government does not sell the pulp areas by auction, y The apswer is that the government has devised a wiser method. Its pol- icy in thix respect camnol receive too much discussion and too close an ex amination by the public to suit Hon, G. W. Ross. The suggestion that the pulp areas should be auctioned will only deceive those who do not under stand the question. Timber Dmits can be and are sold at public auction because the time is-something that the public can buy and sell. Baw-mills abound, and new ones can be started, but pulp mills do pot abound, and an outlay of $400. 000. or $500,000 js required to start one. The policy of Mr. Ross has these lages over the auction system: | that (1) it brings new pulp mills in to existence. on spol, thus opening up the country; (2) gives the public exchequer the benefit of increases in value; and (3) leaves it in the power of government to see that no. pulp mill shall hold more spruce thas it can manufactdre while another mill cannot get enough to keep it run- ning. It is murprising to find a newspaper that professes so much faith in the inciple of public ownership filing fault with Hon. G. W. Ross for thus retaining in the hands of the province control of the pulpwood supply of the future, while afionling to enterprising men all suck material as they can now make use of. A ROUSING MEETING. A Fine Gathering Was Held at Battersea. Battersea, May 20.<ProBably the largest amd most successful political meeting which. was ever held here | took place last evening on the occas- jon of the liberal candidates appear ance, It was held Jn VanLuvin's vall, wich wax packed to the doors, The veteran chairman and hbeal, Isaac Holder, presided. W. J. Shib» ley was presented with a pretiy boguet by Miss May Lake. His ad- dress was full of interest, and he made 5 ood impression. ok Haycock then came forward. We have pad the pleasure of listening to many able 'addresses from Mr. Hay cock, but on this oreasion he excelled himself. For two hours he discussed the questions of the day, interspersed with little bits of humor and elo- quence, He clearly showed that Mr, Gallagher had not even' gttempred to advance any legislation in the inter t2 of the larmers, but on several important questions had = voted oguarely against them. Mr. Hay. cock hax a wonderful grasp of pile affairs. The meeting closed with cheers for the, king, the candidate and Haycock. The Battersea Brase Band rendered efficient service. This was M¢. Shib Jey will corwminly have a good majori- ty here, and reports from all over the riding are most encouraging. ------ Moré About Pickling. Hamilton Times. The Spectator's blather about the farmers of this neighborhood selling cucumbers to the Heintz people is ra- (ther amusing. Does it think it is a wiong to let the farmers have a mar ket for their vegetables ! There is a duty of thirty-five per cent. on pickles now; how much more does it think the consamer ought to be faxed to "en: courage' capital to go into pickle making so extensively as to shut out all demand for the vegetables from outside 7 The duty is just as high now as it was when its heaven-born legis lators controlled the parliament. Sure ly that must be right. Suppose there were not a pickle put up here, would the Spectator contend that the farmer should not be allowed to have a mar- ket outside of Canada? And suppose that there were hundreds of pickle fac- tories here, would it wish 10 prevent them from having one more customer from outside ? It is very silly. LACK COW SENSE.

The Clérgue grant = of land be de- clared 'a phenomenal steal,' when he was in the house, of course. A steal implied a thief, the thief in this case being Mr. Clergue; Clergue deserved the grant, and also the credit for the marvelious develop ment which Mr. Whitney saw. At Owen Sound he declared he was always in favor of developing new Ontario. At the "Soo" he admitted that be was not able to see farther than his nose, with respect to the government's schemes of aevelopment. At New Hamburg he was opposed to taxing corporations, and declared he would repeal the supplementary re- venue hill proposing this tax if he got into power At Uxbridge and other places he de- claved that the statement that he fa- vored the repeal of the corporation tax was an absolute falsehooa. He is in iaver of a minister for New Ontario and he opposed a minister of education ond g minister of agricul ture. colleges, and has school for western Ontario and some of the ordinary expenditures in con- pection with agriculture, ana has sup- ported. measures which would inter: cultural college we have. He speaks from the same platform with Mr. Foy at various public meet- ings, and then speaks in support of P. Do MeCallum, who struck the heaviest blow at separate schools ever attempted in the legislature. He declares himself as opposed to corruption, yet sits with William Bmith, of South Ontario, on the same platiorms. He supports Calder, whose seat was bought for him by Billy Smith and others. He sug Macdiarmid in West Elgin, who was elected by persona: tion; Brower in East Elgin, who we unseated for corrupt practices, and Lackner in North Waterloo. He condemns tampering, with ballot boxes, and yet supported the conser vative party in the infamous gerry- mander of half the province of Un- tario., He opposes prohibition, and yet he speaks for candidates who are pledyg- ed in favor of prohibition. He calls for the clergy to help him elect his prohibition candidates, yet he himself declares against prohibition. He declares that the electors should be allowed to express their opinion without undue influence, and Jot in big northern Ontario trip he offered the settlers custom smelters for their ore, talked mysteriously about the ne- cessity of amending the regulations of the crown lands department, ro that settlers might have the timber on-theie-land. orts A Fine Woman Dead.
