PROHIBITION AND THE PARTIES’
Duncan Marshall’s speech a few days ago, we pointed out the reascuableness Of his advice to al! prohibi- tiouisis to “vote down the federal govern~ ment which deceived and insulted them,” and “vote down the Provincial Govern- which betrayed them.” We sbowed, that by following this advice probibitionisis would at once demonstrate their sincerity and their political power, aad advance the cause they profess to have at beart. Ino viewof this fact we asked the avsistance of The Guardian Cating its adoption by those whose action i, reepect to prohibitioa it may be sup-
RererRine to Mr.

posed to influence. But, without giv- ing a gooi reason for sts refux sal, the Guardian has refused to do so. The test of sincerity in the probibition cause, seems to have been too severe for our discreet contemporary
The Guardian is, evidently, while pro». fessing its independence of party, rather more of a Liberal partizan than ‘t is ofa Probibitionist. Withoat doubt the Guar-
dian hasa right to take its own course ; and, feeling sure tbat thousands of pro
bibitionists will fullow the advice of Mr. Marsba)l,the Guardian to the contrary notwithstanding, we should not have again referred to the matter, but for an at- tempt onthe part of our discreet con- temporary to convey the impressivn that,
with respect to prohibition, the Conserva- tives are in the same position as the liberale. The Guardian states that if an excuse “is good for one‘party it is good for the other.” What are the tacte? The Conservatives, when in offize, avowed their sympathy with the prohibition cause, bat frankly and plainly told the probibitionists that they did not then see their way clear to the enactment and en- forcement of a prohibitory law. This if honest and manly, was unsatisfactory. So the Liberals in Opposition, ever intent on gaining votes, brought the matter up in their convention, promised a plebiscite, and made it one of the subjects of their campaign speeches. Tobey told the prohibitionists that if a majority should vote for prohibition, the law would be passed ; for, said Sir Wils frid, “the majority rules in this country.” How many Conservatiye prohibitionist votes they won as a result of this induce~ ment will never be known, though we kaow that it at once arrested the attention of temperance men and temperance organ - izations turoaghout the length and breadth of the country. The Liberals obtained Office; and, after a long delay, 28 costly plebiscite was held in cir- cumetances calculated to keep back the the full strezgth of the prohibitionist vote, But in spite of all thatthe Government
could do to that end, a majority of 14,000

YES, LET THEM REST.
The morning organ pleads that the ministers are entitled to a rest. There is force in this euggestion. Disappointed office-seekers will please make note of it. Deceived taxpayers, who were led to ex- pect an annual expenditure of $35,000,000 or $36,000,000, and are called upon to fot the bills for upwards of $60 600,00), wil! also do well if they keepsilence—tur ti e Mioistere need & ret. insulted prohibitioniets must al+o be quiet Our farmers, too, ought not to say a word, though oats are down a3 a result of tree coro from the States, while binder twine is up as a result of the destruction of the competition of the Canadian factories and the fostering by the Government of a ring of Liberal dealers intwine.

EVEN WITH THE PREMIER.
(Truro Searchlight.)
Not long since a commercial man from Nova Scotia went to P. E, Island todo business, and bad, of course, to pay that “Injun devil” tax of $20 imposed on com~ mercial travellers by the Islaud govern~ ment.
The commercial man expreesed his Opinion of the tax to the premier in language more forcible than eloquent and said he was going to try and get even with a goveroment that would impose such a@ tyranical tax on honest business.
Ai the laet local by~election was going up in ove of the ridings of Prince County. Thither the commercial man hied himself, took oft his coat, and went to work in the interest of the Ccnzervative candidate. When the election was Over it was found that a Liberal majority of over 200 of the year before bod been converted into a tory majority of 51,
Back to Cuarloitetown went the drum- mer, entered the place of business of the premier, and eaid to him, ‘© How do you hike gwhat we did up in Prince County? I told youl would get even with you. Now go up tothe provin- cial buildiog and get thse offices cleened up andio readioess for the fast incoming servants of the Island people. “ Ihe handwriting ison the wail.” The ?re- mier, eo itis said, told the drummer he talked too much, to go away, and that he could come again next year for the tax he paid this year.
The drummer is said to have replied, that by next year the tories would be in power on the Island, and the obnoxious law repealed. If it ie not, said be, I live next door to a high official of the Nova Svotia Government, and I will havea law putting every I-lander that sets his foot on Nova Scotia soil in jail for life.

NOTES ANDCOMMEN1S. i
~The aseassination of Dreyfus’s counsel and the arrest of Paul Deroulede and twenty-three of his Bonapartist alles be- token: the gathering of a political storm in France. When an attempt was made to arrest M. Guerin, president of the anti- semite league, he refused to surrender and barricadea himselfio his house. He says, so it is reported, be is prepared to hold out for three weeks, having a good stock of tirearms. Matters are evidently in a bad way, and tne situation is critical.
—The Mail and Empire puts it this way: After eighteen years of Conservas tive rule the Federal expenditure increas- ed to the extent of $!0,036 225,17. But afier three years of new Liberal rule the taxpayer finds tha there hes been en in- crease Of $12,{56,254. If the increase were toCOutinue mthe same ratio during a Liberal reyime of eightzen vears, it would amount to sixtimes $12,556,254, or $75,937,520. Happily, the people are al- ready preparing to turn the wreckers down.
—<A few days ago we published a etate- ment to theeffect that intense excitement was recently caused in London by the psisoning of a number of guests at the Inn’s Court hotel with what was alleged to have beeu “ American canued fruit.” A reader of Toe Examiner calls our attention to a statement of one of the poisoned guests who declared that he had no canned fruit, but partook, with others, of some sort of cream of a greenish color. The statement was published by the London Daily Mail and other papers. According to it, the poieooing and deaths could pot have resulted from “American canned fruit.”
—The Edmonton Post, a new journalistic candidate, is evidently animated by the proper spirit. Here is an extract from ite salutatory : “While the Post must always regard the Conservative party as the truly national party in Canada, the rarty indi- visibly linked by history and tradition with the growth and progress of this country towards national status, the party whose theories and principles of govern- ment have made and are bow making for the greatest good of the Canadian people, yet this paper distinctly disavows any in« tention of giviog to that party or to any politicians the slavish and iusensate.sup- port such as is cxpected from a reckless partisan press, and reserves the right of independent criticism of the public acts of public men when occasion arises.”
—In the far Weet the exposures made regarding the election of Mr. Holmes have excited a degree of indignation and disgust Similarto that found here. The Victoria Colonist bas this \o say on the subject: “There may have been other elections as bad as that of West Huron, but we do not at this time recal! any. If there were fifty as bad, or even worse, that would be no excuse, and would not render Jess cu)pable the action of the Government in declining to take the strongest action permissabie under the law to punish the guilty and purge Parliament of the presence of a member wi 0, whatever may be his per» sonal qualities, is certainly representative of the worst possible practices at elections. We submit that it is the bounden duty of Sir Wilfrid Laurier to make an example of West Huron, so that, if possible, the tide of fraud and corruption may be checked before it doestirrepsrable damage to the country.”
ESTEEMED EXCHANGES.

London News: Fighting Joe Martin has
! been robbed of some valuable papers by
purgiars. It is believed the thievee were looking for Mr. Martin’s reputation but failed to Jocate it. :
Mail and Empire : It will be surprieing if Mr. Farr, late of Weft Huron, and now of the wovlly west, does not get a Gov- ernment berth. He should be made at least an immigration agentas a reward for his services to the cause of new Lib- eralism.
Montreal Gazette : The Royal Templars of Temperance of the Maritime Proviaces have adopted resolutions denonucing the Government for not fulfilling ite plebis- cite pledges. The idea that the Laurier Government made monkeys of them in connection with the plebiscite is gradually permeating through the prohibitionist mass.
Mailand Empire: The New York Sun is in a bad way over the defection of Wil- liam Waldorf Astor,who has renounced his American citizenship and become a Brit- ish subject. A month or twoago, Mr. Astor published in bis Pall Mall Magazine a pedigree of the Astor family extending back to the eleventh centary. The Sun gets rquare with William Waldorf by asserting that the genealogical expert gold-bricked him with a spurious pedigree and that his original ancestors were butchers and mans ufactured weinerwurst.
