bottles of VEGETINE, has not been troubled with
it SINCE SIMON ALDRICH,

strictly accurate in expression, will be lm-
pressed with his declaration that he played
deep game. He speaks boldly of subsidizing
newspapers with donations of stock, and
there appear the names of publishers VINO
received it in payment for advocating tiie
measure He also gives the names OF men
who were bought off or appeased by the same
means. As to stock, it meant notning De-
yond having so many dollars worth assigned.
To comply with the conditions OF the charter
ten per cent. was to be paid in to satisfy the
government and then paid back as soon as
the beginning of the building of the road
SHOULD make the government subsidy avail
able. Nor was Sir Hugh particular as to the
construction of the act incorporating the road
and extending government subsidies; for
when he had secured the charter, and six of
the ten million stock, he offered a part of it
to New York parties, only that it was to be
held in his name. In short, whenever one
approaches the transaction, whether through
the government avenue or that of Sir Hugh
aud his associates, duplicity and corruption
are evident to such degree that our Pacific
Mobilier Credit transaction becomes simple
and tolerably fair.
Nothing short of the publication OF all the
letters and the statement of Sir Hugh can
give a full understanding of the character and
extent of this transaction which involves the
reputation of the government and the Cana
dian Pacific Railroad Company. 1t is not to
be inferred that they are naturally bad men
beyond others, but the whole transaction is
the legitimate result of government part,c-
patton in railroad schemes, particularly in
country where elections have always been Sc
cured by the men who could pay the most
money. But this is only the inception OF the
matter for Sir Hugh has been awarded che
contract and having the fnll control of the
stock, will doubtless commence the building
of the road as early as possible.

The Canadian Credit Mobilier.

Once or twice during the present week we
have noticed briefly the excitement that pre-
walls in Canada relative to the recent revela-
lions of the transaction between the Do
minion Government and Sir Hugh Allan in
connection with the charter of and contract
for building the Canadian Pacific Railway.
Should we judge of the whole matter from
the standpoint of the opposition, the whole
proceeding on the part of Sir John A. Mac
donald and his associates is one continuous
chapter of duplicity, treachery, bribery and
corruption. On the other hand, if we look
at the matter in the light of the administra-
ton organs, Sir John and his associates ap-
pear as unselfish patriots sacrificing their own
interests to secure the completion of great
national enterprise.
In view of this condition Of public opinion
as expressed through the press, it is very
difficult to arrive at the real truth in the
matter, though it may be assumed that the
government is not so thoroughly bad as the
Toronto Globe pictures it, and is far from be-
ing as statesmanlike and patriotic as its able
champion, the St. John Telegraph proclaims
it to be.
For long time there have been serious
suspicious of the action of the Government in
connection with the Pacific Railway scheme.
Last winter the opposition declared that il
had letters to show the treachery and corrup-
ton of the Government in connection with
the affair but these were not brought to light.
Recently, however, the Montreal Herald OBJ
tanned some private letters written by Sir
Hugh Allan to man named Mcmillan who
claimed to represent United States capitalists
interested in the Canadian railway, which it
published on the morning of July 9th,
These letters are so numerous and so inter-
esting that they have filled a large part of the
Canadian newspapers the past week; and the
most charitable Interpretation the reader can
put upon them is that the writers, Sir Hugh
Allan and the Dominion Premier, Sir John
A. Macdonald, were playing the part of trick
sters and displaying degree of slyness quite
proper for joey Bagstock, but contemplate
for men who should be statesmen.
The next day Sir Hugh appears with long
sworn statement giving his version of the af-
falr, in which he admits that these private
letters to his American friends "are not
strictly accurate" but claims that the 'cir-
cumstances justified or excused the language
used in them" In this statement he gives
history of the whole affair. He says he had
early been interested in Canadian railway de-
velopement and particularly in road connect
ing the Atlantic with the Pacific through Ca
NADIA. In 1871 he was informed by friend of
the Government that some American capital
lists had been communicating with the Gov
eminent about the construction of the Ca
madam Pacific road, and by the sanction, if
not the encouragement of Sir John A. Mac
donald and his FRIENDSHIP opened a correspon-
dence with these parties which in time devel-
oped into an agreement with them as to the
prosecution of the enterprise. Sir Hugh did
this, feeling assured that the road could not
