Many went to their windows to see whet the trou ble was, and saw a man at su up stairs window, telling a magn sitting on his steps to get out or he would shoot him. Two nights lately this same wan has been gwakened by some one trying to get in his front door or trying to cligh up the porch. If was the same man who uied to gain en- trance both times. The man, who is well known in the «ity, was" intoxi- cated and thought he was going into bis own house and finding the door locked bégan 10 climb up the veran- dah. Last night he again tried to effect entrance, and the resident of the house opened the window and told him. to move on. No heed was paid to the remarks other then some foul names. The drank kept on ying te gain an entrance. Finally Ru scare bim away, the man in the window fired a shot into the air, and even this was paid po attention to. dhe man seemed bound to get in, so he took off his coat and tried to climb up on the pillars to = ths baleony above, but did not succeed. Finding all his attempts to gain entpance futile, bo went away, leaving his coat on the "steps. The coat was taken in charge by the police and is now at the station, HOSSACK STRIKES HARD, Government Has Broken Its Pro. mises--Time's Up. From the Hossack Letter. "Un January 24th, 1905, ney made a public appeal and declared that should - his Yuture conduct not be approved, the people might withdraw their confidence. Does Mr. Whitney feel that he has lost pub- He | confidence ? He has so arranges many constituencies by hiving liber als that the withdrawal of liberal con- fidence will not affect the standing of the parties in the legislature. On January 26th, 1905, Mr. Whitney pub- lished his 'glad appreciation' of the fact that 'liberals in large numbers' supported him, In 1908, apparently with the expectation of losing liberal support, Mr. Whitney's appreciation is expressed by higing the liberals. There were a grim humor in the situation did it not savor so strongly of the very ordinary, commonplace and tricky politician." "When the government passed the threp-fifths clause of the local option act it. was guitty of reactionnry legis- lation. Ever since Ontario became 'a province the majority in a municipal ity "has had the right to decide ppon the granting of licenses, These rights Mr, Whit- for aid, PPwese firnily established 'and founded upon a scuse of British justice and equality. Why has the government tampered with them ?" "A judge onlv a few dave aco de- clined to hear a cave in which his son- inlaw was a witness, In the Larose case the brother-in-law of one of the ministers 'was a claimant. and $130,000 was given to him and his associates The explanation is that the of this large sum farnished valuable information to) the government. What was the information ? The people paid for it and should kag what it as." "The close of the Session witnessed a rapid degeneration in: the govern- ment. Its acts have been suspicious, and the province should be on the watch.' 'Faerv liberal---and there are many ~who from & sense of duty supported in the last campaign the party new in power. when 'he considers the pres. ent situation will perceivy that the same sense of duty will compel hun to labor for a strong and able op position." GOOD JOKE F GONE WRONG. And Hugh Clarke H, Had to Put Foot in Mess. Montreal Herald. Mr. Whitney perpetrated rather a good joke on his followers in the Oun- tario legislature in the last week of the session just ended. He came down one day in one of his tearing rages and told the house what burden . his life was since the lobbyists had got after him. He could not dodge them. They were alter him everywhere. He couldn't walk from the office where the cabinet met to the Rgislative chamber without being waylaid half a dozen times hy people=-very respect able people most of them--esking for thisgs they sbouldn't get, and which the government couldn't let them have. Something must really be done, he insisted, to save him from the wiles of the lobbyist. "And then--Mr. Whitney had the legislature guaran- to the interest on $2,500,000 in favor of Messrs," Mackenzie & Mann, two «who, with their advisers, are rightly Sonsidleted the domain shed lobbyists this young dominion fn The worst of it is, that when he was in opposition TO SCARE, AWAY A PORCH| recipients | HAmusements.

She looked to see af she had been noticed and 'hastily started to rise, but something: was holding her. She toed again and still again and then became alarmed. It was « heroic rescue which the voung mah, a restauraut proprietor in West First street, made and it required more than ordinary strength to separate the girl fre the" padle, which, good, but ghe was pretty and it was really worth the while, he thought, until she started on witholit a word of thanks.

No premier ever whe into office un- der more favorable conditions than those which awaited Mr. Whitney. The liberal majority in the assembly had dwindled away until it bad virtually disappeared.

All he had to do to retain it was to carry on the govern- ment of tHe prévince - with vigdr, purity, and liberality. Had this been dome many liberals who helped to put Rim into office' wondd have been will- ing to assist in keeping bim in it to enable him to show what he conld do 10 justify their support. To their sur. prise- he almost immediately began to dismiss public officials against whom no charges were ever made, so that there were more dismissals for pas trofage purjoses in the last four years than Shere h had been in the pre- ceding thirty. Before the closp.of his first term he put himself so complete ly in the hands of Wiliam Mackenzie as to be reduced to a position of political servitude akin to the rela tion in which some ic men in the Sudted Sines hog railva great ists a ¥ putes of that country.
