— Candidates for the Dominion elestion | in West Huron and North Ontario bhaye' been selected.

} —Every time they talk about the) “growing time,” the Liberal organs throw a bequet at the N. P. But they really ought to second ihe Georgetown friend, who advises the Ministers to “Alter Their Course,” in regard to expenditures and other matters,

—“*A Readr,” of the Patriot eays that} the Opposition has no policy. Io that} case they will not be open to the charge preferred against the Liberals who had a policy which they have failed to carry out. The Liberal policy is “to make ends meet,” and they have instead added up- wards of $800,000 to the public debt and | liabilities of the Province.

— Under British rule, ects of lawless- ners, even when committed by white men, are not allowed to go unpunished. Ina remote corner of Nyassaland a trader named Liekl has been heavily fined and eent to prison for six months with bard labor for acts “of violence and cruelty to the ratives. This must impress both the natives and the traders with a wholesome respect for British juetice.

Montreal Gazette: Conservative cardi~ dates are being selected for the general election to the House of Commons in several provinces, and signs of political activity are becoming evident. When M~. Tarte returns be will find the enemy’s skirmish line out.

Toronto Globe: The wheat crop of the whole United States is caiculated at 535,-
