"The license enquiry will not," says the Telegram, "shine as the brightest jewel in the crown of tree and Hon. W. J. Hanns may expostu-: late.

They expected to find something that would be greatly to the discredit of the party, if current rumours were veri- fied. They did not expect, however, to find so much graft, so much political: crookedness, and the further the in- vestigation went the worse the case became, It was a relief when, eventu- ally, the commissioner said he was through. He Bad time to make a report be- fore the legislature closed, but for some reason he failed to present it. He would have had to say that which would have added to the confusion eof the government when the premier un- dertook to defend a condition of af- | fnirs which is without a parallel . in Whitney charged ex-Inspector Hastings with recommending a license holder for favours, 'when, as the Telegram as- sorts, he was deprived of a license and was convicted again and again of sell- ing liquor illegally. "Fiction, not fact," says the Telegram, "was the sharpest arrow in the quiver from which Hon. Mr. Whitney was forced to draw arguments 'for the defence of an indefensible blunder." TUMULT IN THE OPPOSITION, The venom with which the conserva. tives at Ottawa are influenced is dis- played in their last attack om Nr. Aylesworth. A bill 'was before the house, giving power for certain ex- tensions to the Hamilton Radial rail- way, and the question, under discus sion was the propriety of parliament having to do with it. Why should it '| be regarded as "for the advantage of Canada Nir. Aylesworth entered into a legal explanation as to the term. He cited | the judgment of Justice Street, who had declared in an action with the Grand Trunk railway that this parti: cular railway was to the general ad- vantage of Canada, by reason of its passing over the Grand Trunk tracks at Burlington.

It is wonderful how many people tried the absurd proposition. Goldwin Smith does not favour the enfranchisement of women. He says that on men has been laid the re sponsibility of "upholding the state and order. David McClure, lawyer, "and ove of the Thaw insane commission, has been talking since the trial and sur- prising people with his shallow rea- soning. Jerome knew his man and so wanted to see the minutes of the com-~ mission. They must present an inter esting study. Regarding the student vote, Why should the registration of the young men, and their active interest in political events, be such a spectacle as the conservative organ presents ? Do the students 'mot conduct them- selves as well as any other class in the community ? 3 -- The new postal arrangerhent with regard to papers will cut off all com- munication with residents of the Uni- ted States. The thousands, tens of thousands, who, being former Cana- dians, have had their home papers sent to them in the United States will be the sufferers. It is a cruel and un- patriotic movement. ---- Dr. Allan Hamilton is after the com- mission which pronounced upon - the sanity of Thaw. He says, referring to. McClure and his theories : "Nothing could have been more absurd and in- plete than the tion of the prisoner by this individual and his associates, who could not, eves if they had seriously desired, have de termined the existence of paranoia by the methods adopted. In fact, this part of the trial was the most farci- cal of all." : Cure Kidneys Early. All serious kidney ills are slight ones in the inning.

He g-a- duated from the Theological College in 1855, and in 1857 was ordained not far from his native place. Kent coun- ty, in which his whole ministerial life was spent, lies immediately south of Northumberland in which he was morn. The life that he lived there was a very obscure one. He did the work of his parish most faithfully; there was no duty overlooked. Every day he read his Hebrew Bible and the Septuagint version until these languages wire us familiar to him as our mother tongue is to us. Then he was day by day prosecuting his investigations into the flora of the province as well as sts geology. The collection of dried plants which he made in these years is the wonder as it was the mystery of those who were privileged to see it. Along about 1¥75 an affection of the throat unfitted him for preaching and in 1876 he was compelled to leave the pulpit. After residing in Carleton, St. John, for a short period he obtained an ap- pointmeit in the Normal school, Fred: ericton, and in 1830 the lecturership in natural scicnee in Queen's was given him. Some years ago he was pro- moted to the botany professorship. No one on Queen's staff has been more no ome more thorough, no one so mo- dest with all his attainments.
