{ among intelligent readers.
1 was chad thing for the country then in
it and excuses for the most lavish expendi-
`_ refusing to be bound by the verdict, of
deuce,iu which case it might fairly be
called independent Liberal, or indepen-
dent Coz servative. One of these would
_questions they would erpress opinions
based on sound judgement and given
without fear, favor or adection.
But with the files of all the leading
we are compelledto think that therein
scarcely one of the _number that
can claim independence even in
this limited sense. And we opiue
that this entre lack of iudepenf`e1ce
is a bad thing not only for the country at
large, but also had for the party in power.
It is had for the country because the
readers of such journals do ubt get the
honest opinions of their editor
ial writers upon the public ques-
tions and the public men of
the day. It is bad for the party in power
because the press supporting them is
neveracheck' upon the party; does not
hold the party back from wrong-doing
and seldom or never seeks to promote re-
form within the party which it supports.
_sushi course is ana item-lou. £0 the
scores of newspapers adopting and follow-
ing it, because it commits them to en-
dorsing and supporting measures of
legislation and administration advanced
by one party which these journals cou-
demned when advanced by the other
1 has fallen into this inconsistency, with
_ a proportionate loss of weight _and prestige '
Let us cite a few instances. Whats
Liheraljournal when in opposition did not'
denounce the Conservative par-ty then in
ture? And yet today with diteen millions*
,more revenue than in ‘.l&6 we tiu'd that
the expenditure has kept pace_ with the*
receipts and some seven millions have
been added to the net debt. What was
and is the duty of those Liberal journals”
with regard to this matter? We assume "
that they were honest in opposing the
the other party was in power. But if it
expend 'more than its rezular income, ‘
is it not an equally bad thing to spec 1. 
more than the much larger income noni
Here the Liberal psess, if it had been
honest and possessed of even a mod iciim
oi independence might have rendered
good service to the country and to their
the Governmeut's course and have been
ready from day to day to find pretexts
ture in the history of the country, simply
*because it was made by the Liberal party.
There was a plentiful domunciatiou in
the Liberal press in the eighties and nine-
ties bedause the Conservative Govern-
ment of those days did not deal honestly
with-the question ot prohibition. And
yet we have fonud these same journals
defending the Government of the
present day for resorting to the
expedient of a plebiseite and then
the people. The truth is that in federal
atiiairs neither party has dealt honestly
with this matter, but where is the party
journal that has dared to say so? Then
as to the tarif-what Liberal journal in
rate of duties without wholly ignoring ~
all that it had said on thesnbject, honest- _
ly enough no doubt, during the eighteen
years from 1878 to 1896? It would be easy _
to point out many inconsistencies in the
tion now challenited from that quarter.
Audit is alway the party in power which
is most intolerant of real independence.
We believe that these are times -when
the press of the country, Liberal, Con-rf
servative and independent, should som-
biue to check the too lavish,exp¢`ndi\;m-¢
ot the Government of the day, lest in the
days of boomingtrade and an overflowing
and set right come _oi the misrepresent-
ations in which be iudulges. We have at
no time taken the ground that party
journalism is incompatible with inde-
=,. he _ _e pendence. We hold that a joumal may
favor one party more than the other and
still preserve a fair measure of indepen-
bsiieve in and advocate protection for
