_ From the days when honest Alex-
ander lllackenzie led tlie`Libcral Oppo-
sition in the iirst House of Commons
down to the Liberal victory in 1896
no point in the Conservative practice
was more strongly and persistently
condemned by the Liberal leaders
than the bringing cn of by-elections
at different times when there was
more than one vacancy. To the
Liberal party belofigs the credit of
having made provision for simultan-
eous polling in general elections, and
the leaders of that party always con-

   ought tobe applied to by-elections

Local and general anaesthetic to

when theio-weremore than one vacan-
cies existing. If we remember right-
ly Mr. Mackenzie, when in power, al-
I ways followed the rule that be had
I laid down in opposition, and brought
_on the elections to fill all vacancies at
‘one time.
Quite recently adespatcli was sent
out from Ottawa, purporting to give
,the Secretary of State, Hon. R. W.
lScott, as authority for the statement
that the by-elections would be
_ brought on simultaneously. The
ldespatches in yestei-da.y’s afternoon
papers, mentioning only the three by-
clections in Prince, Lambton and
Simcoe. gave to many an impression
_ that the government had departed
from that sound principle. Our ful-
ler despatches tell that five of the six
vacant seats will be illed by pollings
to be held simultaneously on. l~lt-h
December. This, if it does not entire-
ly comply with the established rule,
comes pretty close to it.
THE OPEN DOOR-
However little may have been-` the
impression produced on other great
powers by Lord Sa.lisbury’s policy of
the “open door” in the far east, it is
gratifying to note that reports say it
will be adopted by the United States
‘ifi the Phillipines, and perhaps in the
West Indies as well.
It is significant that the two- great
Anglo-Saxon powers are now shaping
their policy so much along the same
lines, and in a. manner that must
challenge the approval of the world
for its unselfishness. All the com-
mercial nations stand to profit by the
open door policy, which Britain main-
tains wherever she plants her flag.
The fact that the United States,
hitherto very exclusive in trade mat-
ters, now falls into line so far as her
_ new possessions are concerned, affords
} another reason for believing that the
_two governments have had an
_lunderstanding since the be-
ginning of the war with Spain,
of a. more important char-
lacter than the world has suspected.
At least the Anglo-Saxon team seem
to be pulling together in a. manner
that is quite unprecedented,and leaves
nothing to be desired except that they
may keep it up to the end.:

The late elections give the 
publicans I. majority of _15 in the
new House ‘of Representatives, as
compared with 47 in thc former
House.° The Senate will probably
show s clear Republican majority
over all of 20, as compared with 2 in
that body as it stood before. But
the election in another way _was a.
close one, giving the Republicans
control of but 21 state legislatures
out of 41 in which elections were
held.
There is no question of more vital
importance to the cities of the Do
minion than that of their large and
increasing taxation and how it is to
be met. Mr. J. W. Martin of London
is now delivering a series of lectures
in Canada showing that the true
solution is to be found in the cities
owning and operating their own water,
gas, elect-ric light and street railway
systems.. Mr. Martin cites by name
200 cities that own and manage their
own gas works. while a less number
manage their electric lights and
street railways, in almost every case
with better sei vice and reduccd tax-
ation. The time is past when valu-
able street franchises may be given
away in the reckless fashion of earlier
y€»&I'S. .
The Pall Mall Gazette is of the
opinion that a war with France would
be rather a good thing. In effect it
says: “Our trade might suEer momen-
tarily, but we would gain much in the
end. We would close up all French
ports and seal up the Chan-
nel. We would sweep away
French trade, and take at
our leisure such French colonies as
we think worth taking. We would
regulate our position 'in Egypt, relieve
Newfoundland of the French, make a.
present of the New Hebrides and
New Caledonia to Australia. We
would overthrow the present bound-
ary of Siam put; an end to French am-
bitions in China,_divide West Africa
as we choose, and have 'something to
say i-n Morocco,” etc.
