Mr. Corby represented { West Hastings in the commons for many years, and would be represent- ling it still had he been anxious do 80. : There are several things in his fa- vour. He is in the prime of life. He has the capacity for service. He has the experience, which @ one of the t highest qualifications and most valued or prescribed in the many schemes 'that have been advanced for senate reform. He is independent. He will to gambling. That | and what the jury should recommend sérve his party when it deserves his support, and he will serve a liberal when he needs help. Only 4 few days ago the Whig learned of his devotion | to a liberal friend in Belleville and | under circumstances which did him ! great credit. 2 The garbage system has miscarried, and through defects that appear to he inherent and for the time being irre parable. The contractors" meant well. Somes, or perhaps most, of the gar bage was of some valae, 'and because of that they ceuld afford to accept ob the civig¢ responsibility to some ad vantage. . - But ere long, in the working out of their plans, they: encountered difficul- thee, They 'visited certpin' places where they expected to find garbage, of a kind they wanted, only to dis cover that it had been removed, and by persons with a financial interest in ihe transaction. It" did not ocour to the eommittee, mor to the eouncil, that éontracts bould be made outside of them for garbage that could be used in the feeding of hogs, and now THE SYSTEM IS DEFECTIVE. that this has become known they 'van do nothing about it. The city solicitor will be asked to look into the legal aspect of, the case and advise upon it. It may be pos sible for the city to make the gar bage collectors carry out their con- tract, and if so a great hardship will be put upon them. If the general law does not put the cdllection of garbage under the control of ! the council, and subject to its authority, an améndwent should be sought, The garbage question is an import ant one, and the city must pursue the wonz with the determination to make it @ success. It may be even neces sary to appoint an inspector whose attention to the subject will guarah tee results, in a sanitary hse, which arg very much to be desired. __-- I The filtration question has entered upon a new aspect. The Board of Health has declared its intention to report ths City Council to the [ro vincial Board of Health for a failure to do its duty, The result will be awaited with a growing intérest. The Whig has criticised the Board of Health because it did not perform what appeared to be its duty. The Board of Health should decide that the water needed treatment, in order to be safely used for domestic pur- poses, but also it 'should have report- ed upon the nature of that treatment, Filtration was favoured and deemed expedient, but the filtration plant should have been described or defiried. The Utilities committee, however, as sumed the responsibility of deciding the issue, after its chairman put him- self on record as saying that this com- mittee would provide any plant the Board of Health recommendell. The ALL UNDER A CLOUD. Utilities committee has had two ants under consideration, and had not reached any decision with respect to them. It transpires that no pro- gress has bern made oi latg because there is a difference among tHe alder men upen the need of any plant. It is on this account, because the committee is disposed to mark time, that the reference to the Provincial Beard of Health appears to be time I. The provincial authorities cannot uvoid taking some action, and it may be the means 'of educating the alder men or converting them from the er tor of their way, The Utilities committee has disap io'nted those who were its admirers. A while ago it seemed to be the only civic organization that gave evidence of life. The later revelation upon this liltration system has advertised it as no better and no worse than any oth- er committee. -- The education department is being menaced by the French-Canadians of Ontaria.

The Detroit Times dontains the following description: 4f €ol. .Fheo- dore Roosevelt by Awnesley "Bur rowes, on the occasion of the ex- president's appearance in that city: "When Col. Roosevelt walked in before the big audience which met in the armory, he loked exactly what a people's can- didate should look like. He look. €d like a man of, the people "His coat hung awkwardly upon him. His: trousers were bagged at the knees and wrinkled across the hips. Heo looked as though he belonged to the plain people--the "common" people.

"But it would never occur to youn that he was out of place. "Col. Roosevelt does not look in- tellectual, or graceful, or "aristocrat- ie or refined. He looks about as intellectual as a printing press, about as graceful as a locomotive, about as aristocratic as a steam- dredge, about as refined as a road: roller. "On the whole the colonel is no orator. He can turn a team of oxe about as gracefully as he can turn a period. He doesn't know anything about climaxes or peroratons. He just sails in fough-and-tumble, "Every word strikes you like pistol shot. . Somebody, or some: thing. «drops at every sentence. Slam! Bang!

In imagination, one can picture him half-clad in skins, with shaggy bair and battle-club, zoing out against the monsters ot the stone age. "He has the aspect of a leader, not a ruler. You feel that he is one of yourselves--that he is down among the people. You cannot imagine him in robes and periwig, exercising the hereditary sway of a Louis XIV, but you can picture him {a the horned helmet of a German- ic chieftain. throned in the forest, giving the law to his fellow tribas- men, differing from them in noth- ing . and superior .only in Ma strength and wisdom. : "That's the appeal that Roosevelt makes.
