Tests while they transfer the fight for party from tbe constitu encies to the law courts To read over synopsis given in Toronto dallies of the various charges enu merated in the several petitions bow- ever those not versed in legal tactics would be ted to the conclusion thai the recent contest was charactcrued by systematic fraud and all torts of bribery personal corruption intimida tion these more experienced the whole procedure is un derstood to mean very than amove for political effect In entering a protest the legal fraternity generally take all the the election law permits by making scope of en quiry as wide possible and then follow up the prosecution by seeking afterwards to discover said or done to justify one or more of the charges alleged or to afford oppor tunity for party leaders to effect com promisesin other words to arrange for between certain favor ite candidates on either side without creating distrust among their respect ive supporters in the constituencies affected In too many instances it is simply a political manoeuvre to ac complish some purpose altogether unknown to the general public- As above stated no less than eighteen protests have been entered but the chances are that not onehalt of them will ever be advanced beyond the preliminary of placing the de fending candidate in the witness box on enquiry of discovery Mean while the effect of the action taken will result in keeping up local party courage and stimulate to future effort for supremacy It is possible however in present instance where comparatively few votes in the House transferred from

Parliament dealing with the circumstances that brought about the English embargo on Canadian cattle- The documen tary evidence now for the time brought to light comes from the custody of tho Government and ex plains conclusively the occasion of this embargo- Briefly the case as follows Great passed an act in under which they can issue an order U qui ring the slaughter of all cattle flicted with cattle disease or which conic from a country which does not adopt proper measures to prevent the introduction of cattle disease into such country In the language of tbe Act such an order is called scheduling the country in question that is putting that country on the schedule or list of countries send live caltleinlo England Under this Act England scheduled the United States in of the outbreak of pneumonia amongst the cattle of the Western States Canada being free from dis ease was not scheduled but our rail ways wished to cany American cattle from the west through Canada to American Atlantic ports This trade being a source of danger to Canadian cattle would have caused England to schedule Canada and therefore in order to prevent such a result our Government sent one of its members to arrange if possible a basis which would meet the requirements of the Act by the adoption regulations the carriage of American cattle through as to Canada to the risk of being scheduled- Such a basis was reached and under it have ever since been engaged in the trade in question but owing to bad faith and on the part of Canada in not living up to the terms of the agreement Canada has been placed on the scheduled of count ries forbidden to export live cattle in to England This basis was at follows The cattle were to be In spected on the American side before entering Canada The cars were to be so constructed that the droppings should not fall out The cattle tram was to be put under charge of a Gov- guardian to see that no laxity of regulations should occur This officer was to remain in charge Of the train until it left Canada ard he was to see that the cars were cleaned and disinfected before they came back and of course would report any who violated the regulations Instead of appointing independent men as guardians the Government to the railways blank appoint- meats to be filled up by tbe railways with the names of the conductors Fancy the I A conductor nominally a Govern ment officer was 16 watch himself conductor in pay of the railway This breach of faith resulted in a total of all the Dominion Government agreed to exclude American cattle from Canada when through as above and of observing this stipulation allowed thcrn out being inspected or quarantined the hope that byeelections will result in strengthening the Opposition but seeing that most of the Government supporters petitioned against were re turned by decided majorities unless personal disqualification can be estab lishedwhich is not likelythe hope will be vain Efifaffj WBiV to
