the city is assured of a careful and prudent
government during the next two years.
The evil eye seeth no good, says the Ot- is
tawa Journal Press. Measuring the worth ’h
of their opponents by theirown tattered 31,3
standard of political morality Laurier par-'lati
tisans could see nothing inthe Act giving Cen
votes to soldiers other than a gigantic H h
fraud to steal the rec-ent election. And so 
for months past the country has heard-al
that soldiers’ ballots were being switched he
by thousands to achieve reversal of the ver- l S
dict in constituencies where Laurierites es- a a
caped disaster by the vote at home. Thus
it-fwas put out that enough votes were
switchedfrom Winnipeg-alone to defeat
Molloy in Provenchcr; that ample ballots;
were diverted from Toronto to spell defeat,
for half the pitiable group of Laurierites‘
to survive the deluge in Ontario; and that
even in Quebec shrewd handling of fighting
ballots might make a substantial dent in
Laurier’s formidable line one un-easy geni-
us even suggesting that Sir Wilfrid himself
might go down to defeat in Quebec East. ,
Such ridiculous talk, persistently repeat- i
ed, had an inevitable result; an important
section of the public swallowed it without
challenge, and, unfortunately, many of the
soldiers overseas were led to believe that
under the provisions of the Act they were
privileged to cast their votes in whatever
constituency they chose. The consequence
is that upwards of 25 per cent. of the soldier
vote in Canada is lost because the law, made
by men who were neither thieves nor luna-
tics, was specific that soldiers should vote
in constituencies in which they resided
prior' to enlistment.
_ The whole business is suggesive of the
great deal of folly that is indulged in bv
partisans mentally unbalanced by mad de- 
sire for office. Made suspicious by their
own low level of purpose and sportsman -
ship, they are ever ready and willing to
asperse the motives of their opponents, and
their partisanship is such that iio bombard- `
ment of common-sense or logic can possib-
ly be made to penetrate their temporarily
bedevilled minds.
The moral would seem to be a necessity
for closer public scrutiny of all public leg-
islation, a greater public desire to chal -
lenge mere partisan assertions without
proof, and, finally, but most important of`
alI_, an increased degree of willingness to
regept unsu ported inpeachments of thel
motives of overnments and men. `
