Hete many â€" of the expenses, which candidates have to pay in Great Britain, are paid by the state, and it can be generally avâ€" eraged that for every dollar which a Canadian politician has â€" to â€" expend the British politician has to expend three times as much. Proof of this is given in an.interesting return . reâ€" cently made in London which conâ€" tains some interesting figures. Several Irish Nationalists were reâ€" turned unopposed at £15 per. ‘candiâ€" date, but Mr. Donald Macmaster, alâ€" though he also enjoyed an uncontestâ€" ed election, was mulched to the cxâ€" tent of £209.
