THE.INSURANCE INVESTIâ€" GATION. ies of the Dominion. Realizing the possibility ol the existence of a latâ€" ent fecling of distrust in the minds of Canadian policy holders, the Hon. Mr. Fielding has announced that we are to have an insurance investigaâ€" tion, to be followed by any remedial legislation which the results of this enquiry may suggest. o The amazing â€" revelations of insurâ€" ance rottenness in New York have inâ€" spired more or less feelings of anxâ€" iety regarding the insurance companâ€" With a courageous and â€" independent commission, we should get a thorough and satisfactory investigation, â€" and as every citizen is to a certain exâ€" tent a policyâ€"holder, this will be a great inquest by the _entire Bominâ€" fon, and every step taken by the comâ€" mission will be _ watched with the kecnest intercst. The commission to investigate the insurance situation in Canada . will consist of Judge McTavish, Ottawa, senior Judge ol the County of Carâ€" leton; Mr. J. W. Langmuir, managâ€" ing director of the Toronto General ‘Trusts Corporation, and Mr. . A, L. Kent, ol Kent & Turcotte, accountâ€" ants, Montreal. _ Judge: McTavish is a jurist of high standing, who has alâ€" ready served on‘ important Governâ€" ment commissions. He was for many years city ‘solicitor in Ottawa. Mr. Langmuir is .one of the bestâ€"known financiers in Canada, whose name onâ€" ly nceds to be mentioned toâ€" inspire confidence. Mr. Kent is a leading acâ€" countant ‘and actuary _ in Montreal, whose long experience and skill in dealing with complex . financial }\m juncture. PREMIER WHITNEY AND THE SPOILS SYSTEM. It is reported . from Toronto that Premier Whitney is not in favor _ of what is known as the spoils system.. In the United States a change of government signifies a change general l ly in the civil service. When the Keâ€" publican party are in power, it means that _ Republican <party suppol’tul’s‘ will be appointed to the positions that are within the power of the Government â€"to ~bestow. Of course where this method is adopted by bot‘ partics there is littic ot no objection raiged by civil servants, because they know full well that the moment the party which appointed them is defeaâ€" ted that their doom is sealed, and others of the same political stripe as the Government in power will be apâ€" pointed in their stead. Under: Britâ€" ish institutions this principle is not supposed to be carried into effect. Civil servants in Canada are supposâ€" ed to be appointed on account of their special fitness to fill some givâ€" in position. It seems almost imposâ€" sible, however,. to entircly get rid of the idea that "to the victor belong the spoils." This is especially so Ontario, where for over thitty years the Liberal party swayed the destinâ€" jes of the province, and, of course, had in their power the gift of the patronage. Now that a change of adâ€" ministration has taken place, it is scarcely to be wondered at that numâ€" erous party heclers think that at last their turn has come, and that they should have a government ‘appointâ€" ment at all hazards, even if some efâ€" ficient servant: appointed by tue lat _government must be dischar‘ged in or der to make room for them. Mr. Whitney â€"professes not to rec ognize these applications, which _ at: based npon nothing but party service without any reference to the qualifiâ€" cation or fitness of the applicant, nor of the incongpetence or indiscretion o% the servant that must necessarily unâ€" det the citeumstances be discharged. Mr. Whitney‘s professed principles att right; and it remains for him to carâ€" ry them out. 1t is not the man With the appetite to whom we should catâ€" et, but the man with the appreciation of good govetnment. Mr. Whitney i: not Premict of Ontario by ,grace . of party votes. If Mr. Whitney had neâ€" ver got anything more than the actâ€" e support of â€" the party he repre sents, he and his â€" supporters | wou! Still be occupying the Opposition ben ches at Toronto.. ‘ Mr. Whitney, as Premict of Ontario, owes his clection to the Infependent: of ‘the province, and the Indépendent: of Ontatio do not relish the idea o turning. the civil service into an in stitution for the remunetation _ and appeasement of party hacks and heel ers. The moment that Mr. Whitne yiclds to the clamor of those . win are politicians for revenue only, t confidence of those to whom he owe his political position will be materiâ€" ally injured. Mr. Whitney . has a splendid opportunity at present o‘ fl“i‘r the province of a reprebensâ€" ible class of politicians who simply support one party of another . for what they expect to get out of it By all means let vs educate out peoâ€" ple to be politically honest and patâ€" riotic, and support the party of their choice . independently, because . they have confidence in it and believe in its princi; Ios.

Mr. Lang left Cnicago Friday for a few . days‘ stay with friends living about ten miles from Bath. He had been informed that the hunting was excellent, and before he left the city he called up several friends on the telephone and assured them he would remember them if he had any _ luck. Naturday morning with a boy named James Simith as guide he started out for Grand Island. : From what can be learned _ from Smith the two reached CGrand Island in a skiff carly Saturday morning. The river was high and the boat was sent in among the snags on the overâ€" fHowed land in order to secure an adâ€" vantageous blind. _ Striking a subâ€" merged tree the boat was overturned and _ Mr. ‘Lang and his companion were thrown into the, water. The boy managed to reach a > tall tree and climb into its branches, but Mr. Lang, after vainly trying to gain a foothold on the treacherous ground sank in the marsh and either . was drowned or perished from the _ cold and exposure. Soaked â€"to the skin and numbed with cold, young Smith managed to secure himself in the limbs of the tree. There were several hunting parâ€" tics in the vicinity, but no one heard »ny call for aid and the boy remained all day in the tree, _ By the merest secident he ‘was seen near nightfall and taken unconscious from his> perâ€" ilous position, § Lang, and a party was organizedâ€"Lo seek for some trace of the Chicago business man. Searching Party Finds Body. Near the scene of Smith‘s rescue the searchers _ found the overturned boat with Mr. Lang‘s gun caught beâ€" neath the seat. A further search disâ€" vovered the body, the feet fast in the voze of ‘the river. It was taken to the hamlet ofâ€" Snicarte and thence sent to Bath.

For the past 62 years the average mear .cmâ€" perature in Toronto for February has becu 23.9 degrees of frost, and _ this year it works out at exactly 23. For the first ten days only once did the lemperature go above freezing point, and twice it went well below zero. After that we had a mild spell, and ict the last day or two. wehave been espefiencing another cold snap. lre snowflall for February has been Yyory far below the average; in fact, it bus been practically nil, and this fact, un loubt, has been partly _ instsnmenial in leading Torontoniaus into the be Tiet that they Lave been emjoytoxz zt exceptionally_mild February.

Some of / the inmates who have small means are incapable of Jooking after themselves, cither from the: inâ€" lirmities of old age or mental incapaâ€" city.. Mr. Eilber‘s bill proposes â€" that in ‘such cases where proper evidence is produced before the County Judge he should have authority to direct apâ€" propriations from the propertics . cf the inmates to help to pay the cost of their maintenance, and thus relieve the burdens on the countics.

Toronto, Feb. 28.â€"Through | what is alleged to be a fraudulent attempt to gain possession of purchase monâ€" eys in trust in counection with the sale of the King Edward Hotel, Guelph, the aflairs and management of that establishment have become involved in a puzzling legal tangle, with Toronto as the base of operaâ€" tions. Early last week, Mr. J. C. Clarke, of Shallow Lake, Ont., began negotâ€" iations for the purchase of the hotel at Guelph from L. H. Alguire, of W Alguireâ€"&â€"Son,â€"theâ€"proprictors.â€"An agreement _ was drawn _between the partics by which Clarke agreed â€"â€"toâ€" pay $12,000 for the botel property, and to deposit in trust $6,500 in cash and a note for $500, which were to be handed ‘over to the Alguires. when the â€" transfer _ of the house license should be ratified by the commissionâ€" Through the Molsons Bank in Owen: Sound, with which he was in the habâ€" it of doing business, Clark, the purâ€" chaser, forwarded . the cheques and the note to the Bank of Montreal in Guelph, where it was to remain unâ€" til the commissioners‘ consent was obtained. It is alleged that, by usâ€" ing the name of the Bank of _ Comâ€" merce,â€" where he had an account, L. 1. Alguire made represcntations . to the manager of the Bank of Montreal to the efect that he hadl Clarke‘s consent to the payment over to himâ€" self of the $6,500, and the note and both securities. were handed iover to him. HMe thereupon transferred them both to the Totonto office of the Bank of Commerce, in the name . of Nrs. Mary Jane Alguire, the wilctof Alguire, senior. In the meantime; the license com.i missioners cannot _ transfer the liâ€" cense to Clarke because the Alguires left liabilities against the house amâ€" ourting to $23,400, and no transfer can can be granted until these are setâ€" tled. By the agreement, Clarke rook possession of the" hotel when he deâ€" posited the cash and the note in the Bank of Montreal, and since last week it has been run under his manâ€" agement, subject to the sufferance of the license inspector. The Alguires as soon as the son secured the transâ€" fer of the purchase money to Toranâ€" to, left Guelph, and are now quarter ed at the Wilson House in this city. L. H. Alguire was in Guelph for a short time last Saturday, but here turned to Toronto again the same day. He is teing . anxiously sought aftet by the â€" license inspector and sundry â€" other Guelph â€" citisens, who have claims against him. When Clarke became aware of tho step Alguire had taken, he retained the services of Mr. Nicol Jefirey, a Guelph lawyer, and secured an inter im injunction at Osgoode Hall last Saturday restraining the Alguircs from touching the money, and it is to be argued before Mr. Justice Britton on Thursday morning. The cirecumstances place Clarke in the position of having paid over part of the purchase price of the hotel, with the prospect that he will be unâ€" able to secure a transfer of the licâ€" ense to run it unless the Alguires choose to pay up. The Mgvires have this money in the bank in their naime where it must remain perling the deâ€" cisien of the High Court. When you are wortried. When you have been disappointed.
