The recollection comes to us that when the late respected Mackenzie Government ' was moribund, and-even a post mortem has been held over its remains by the great body politic, an Order in Council was passed giving away two hundred square miles of timber in the North-West to our old familiar H. H. Cook. Better die intestate, and let the legitimate heirs share equally. < f~ V; A ' ran auras: or nmnnrv. V Bartholdi e Statue of Liberty is not doing much to enlighten the world of waters. It seems to have proved a very white elephant in the hands of our dollar loving cousins. It is said that Bartholdi is disgustedwith the way this gift has been `received and the difficulty of raising funds to furnish the light. One of the papers speaks of a meeting in New York lately which represented $800,000,000 of wealth, yet a few thousand dollars for this light, useful to the mariner and typical of the liberty so much boasted of, could not be obtained from this meeting of millionaires. History shows that enormous `wealth and love of liberty do not always go together. Is Liberty's light becoming dim and in dollar lg So itwould seem`. \ d_anger of suffering eclipse by the almighty 4 .

It should be. rendered imperative toheat cars by some other means than this. It could beeasily done by steam from the engine. A de- cient supply , of axes also results in destruction to life in many cases, as the imprisoned passengers can not make their way out, and are soon rendered powerless by the smoke and ames. That-was the, case at the shocking accident a a few days ago on the Chicago and St. Paul Railway. A woman was helplessly imprisoned. She pushed her two little children through an aperture, told her name, andwas almost . instantly enveloped in smoke and ames. ` This is another argument in favor of a V Railway Commission. There is no very great amount of law for the protection of the passenger, but what little there is . should be promptly enforced and proper machinery is required to do it. A . BUCKLE ON YOUR ARHOR. The Ontario Parliament has been dis- solved and the elections: will take place on the 29th of December, the nominations on the 22nd. The duty of every Liberal- Oonsenative is clear. During the next six weeks every voter should be ready to assist in defeating the organized hypocrisy and inaugurate a system of government in this province that is not in sympathy with treason and secession. Notwith- , standing Mr. Mowat s gerrymandering, the constituencies generally and - South Simcoe especially and the triangular game in Toronto, yet withenergy and organiza- tion, and above all the patriotism that puts country above party, Ontario may i be redeemed from`Grit rule and its insidi- : ous centralizing policy. The country" ex- pects every man to do his duty. Let I every Liberal-Conservative in our own 1 county rise to the importance of the 5 oc-- 5 casion and aid in putting the government : of Ontario into the hands of that talented 1 and-patriotic statesman.

Our amusement was complete when we found it referred to _a man called Green- guring as a Grit leader in the Manitoba Legislature. As aquestion of privilege he brought up in the House the detailsof an attempt to bribe him by being offered a seat in the Local Government. One of Mr. Norquay s colleagues appears to have had some jocular conversation with the A bumptious Greenway, who grew - inated over the notice taken of him, and there- after gives his coddling the dignity of a Parliamentary airing. It will be remem- . tried to get political honors in Ontario as a Grit, but repeated failures caused him to straddle the fence. In one of the con- ; tests for South Durham he declared him- self an Independent, and secured thereby the Conservative vote and a Parliamentary seat. It did not take the virtuous Green- way long to discover that there was more to be made by supporting the "Grit Gov- with his constituents, and consequently -at the end of his term dropped out of sight until his more fortunate adventure in Manitoba as a political leader. The office held by Greenway is asad reflection on the status of the Reform party in-the North-West, and no bribery of him could be possible except to keep him where he is-a local Mowat or Blake, which ever the party chose to designate him. --.r--v----v-o wuavu IILIDII IGVUICIDU luugazlne has won as. the most elegant monthly book of literature and fashion issuing from the American Dress.

A 5 To-day. is set apart by the Government ' as a day of thanksgiving to Almighty God` I for the blessings bestowed upon us as a". people during the past year. ` The prone- P less of humanity"?to-forget-the? source of blessings enjoyed. renders a thanksgiving - day peculiarly appropriate and. necessary.` Hanywill go to their places of worship to day and publicly acknowledge their -in- _. debtedness to the Giver of all good for the many blessings which as a people we have received, and the holiday will at` least remind the careless and nindierenty that there is a power outside and above. - them, to which they owe allegiance `and thankfulnass. No people have greater cause for -thankfulness than we. The labors of the husbandman have been re- warded with a bountiful harvest. and plenty fills the land. In almost every branch of industry, the past year has given `evidence of increased activity and therefore ofprosperity and enlarged en- joyments to the industrial classes. We have been comparatively free from the calamities which the convulsions ot nature have brought upon people in other parts of the world, and tempest, flood and dis~ case have in this Dominion been almost unknown- We have abundant evidence of the goodness of God to us as a people," and it is right and proper that we should publicly, as well as privately, go to the throne of grace and give thanks. While we are partaking of the thanksgiving dinner. we should not forget that there are those in our midst who are less fortu- nate than we. _ The poor ye have always with you. Let them be remembered, and out of our abundance let distress be relieved and suffering alleviated. The most practical way we can show that we are thankful for the good things we enjoy, is by aiding the unfortunate poor. The winter is at handand opportunities will not be wanting to succour the sick and needy. Out of our abundance let us '7' freely give for the relief of want and the J psnishment of sorrow and suedng wherc- ' ever they exist. As a people and as ln- '9 dividnals we may protably remember t thewords of the wise man. In all thy df ways acknowledge Him and he shall " direct thy paths. Honor the Lord with fi` thy substance and with the fruits of all 3" thine increase: So shall thy barns be '" lled with plenty, and thy presses- shall by burst out with new wine. , ' " 1017.6 httarly "De fair! -' I y :2 .32` -11%!!! 15.-.`, _._. u,;_y,,_ uuu .u.ui|. m1nnon',' ' ipdigonjit 11 Chpman-Len`n;ox-'()r}red, ..t} beg:-hunted to D.{.,Hendera'_on for Robinaon, atrindizent.
