He claimed that Miss Shortt had given corroborative evidence, Mr. Mec- intyre contended that if Mr. Pense had not signed authorities for agents, the law had been violated. If the au- thorities were signed by another, Mr. Pehse, he contended, must be held res. ponsible, Mr. Shott's Halliday 's Mabee claimed evidence stateme that. Miss corroborated Mr, nt: that her father to Halliday denying the rumor that he wouldn't hire his horses. Miss Shortt's statement . was different from her father's. Mr. Mabee pointed out that it was very unusual | for liverymen to give receipts for rigs hired for elections, Justice Street remarked that ji | seemed $15 was paid to Shortt on April 13th. The evidence of Miss Shortt seemed to corroborate her fa- thet's statement. Mr. Mabee held that there was a | motive on the part of Shortt for the | Preservation of 'evidence, by entering the item in his book so long after | election day, viz in April. © The item had | never been charged. Mr. Mabee claimed that there ha been no bar- | gain to hire, Halliday, he held, was no agent of Mr. Peénse. If there was an illegal practice by him, it was per- | formed before election day. Mr. Halli | day acted om no committee or had | any conference with Mr. Pense during {election time. Mr. Pense's evidence also showed this. Justice - Street was inclined to think that Mr. Halliday was an agent of | Mr. Penge's election day, as he had | been' practically 'engaged by Mr. ii] | dersleeve to assist him. His lordship | thought that the invitation in the | liberal newspaper to all' lberal work- | ers to turn out on election day made them agouts in a way. s, Mr: Mowat contended that gt least up till election day, Halliday had been proved not to be an agent, and that anything he did up to that time, the respondent was nog responsible for, First Charge Proved. Justice Street stated that there wag no question as to Halliday's agency Mr. © Gildersleeve's evidenco showed that. They found that Mr. Halliday had engaged the team from Mr. Shortt and that there was an arrangement made between them. The judges were compelled 40 find that 'on April 13th, Hulliday had paid R15 for the team. the central fact in regard to that way that there was an entty of 815, sworn Henee the indges found the charge proved. ---- The Treating Charge.
