One of the most flagrant evils In Bhe politics of Canada Is the protection given to all forms of electoral crime by the "saw-off" system of dealing wiih alleged offences. A week ago a great deal was *ieard, on both sides, about bribery and corruption iu the recent Dominion elections. Prima facie evidence of the most damaging character, adequate to the unseating and disqualifying of Conservative members, was known to be in the possession of Liberals. Similar evidence against Liberals was claimed hy Con- Bervatives, Representatives of both party organizations met on the last day allowed for the filing of petitions, and the "saw-off" principle was applied to almost the entire list. The petitions were not filed.

The fester-1 ���__. | ing sore is allowed to remain in the J body politic. Neither party gains in Get the Habit the game, and both parties suffer b> j the concealment. This whole business is wrong and; disgusting. A vona lido petition may DID YOU EVER 7:30 p.m.���"Bits of China" dow 10c eacK The Fair i i 240 Columbia Street, New Westminster be.found ou investigation to be not well sustained, and it may justly be allowed to drop^ but no "saw-off" with another petition should be allowed. This degradation of the judicial machinery tends to turn the law into a farce and to make politics attractive only to adventurers. There is no hope for improvement i signs, three far 25c. ;_o long as the "saw-off" game is played. If any man was elected by means of general bribery or corruption his election should have been protested by those who had adequate evidence, If this rule would involve any Liberals, so much the worse for them, but their unseating would be so much the better for the Liberal party and for the country. The evil of which the "saw- off" Is a manifestation, should be the subject of serious consideration, and wine effective means should be taken ""^ buy for meeting it. The evil afflicts both j same Arties, and Its cure would make for political molality iti all parts of Canada, Has not the time com- when the Gov. nment and Parliament of Can* tda should not only legislate against lectora] crime, but should also pro- V th. 1 --.-ary prosecuting officer for the detection and punishment of such crime Bribery Is made a crime, .1- counterfeiting is made a crime, and of the two the injury wrought by elee- toral crime is by far the more serious. Why .-hould there not be an officer, clothed by Parliament with the needed I authority and power to ferret every i reported case of bribery and to secure! the punishment of the criminals?��� Toronto Globe. see such values given for the money a. we are offering in our double daily specials ?
