Elections Are Now Rather Difficult. In view of the election campaign that is now on it will be well for 1hoe in authority to look into the very strict regulations that hind the candidate and agents in future campaign. The prohibitions of the election law are not merely confined to gross corruption, but extend definitely to the influencing of voters by any of a variety of methods uch,as fear, fraud, violence, and even by such poMble innocent ads as the supply of food or drink, or by the suggestion of benefits to follow from voting or refraining therefrom. The statutory provisions of (hi subject are very involved, and candidates are advised in the book of election, instructions beyig sent out from Ottawa to see that their supporter confine themselves "to the administrative organization of the electoral district and' the political education of the electors." Another inlerestinsf ihjiiii is thai everyone employed by a candidate for my or reward in relation to an election is dis-qualified from voting, and it i a serious offence if such a per soir attempts to mark a ballot? "Candidates and thejr official agents should, therefore, lake effective steps (o ensure the ah slentiou from the polls of everyone who serve them otherwise than gratuitously." Must Not Carry Bludgeons To Poll. ,. The electoral officer points . out also (hat the carrying of arms, or of even bludgeons, on polling day within a mile of any polling. station is prohibited. Not only the selling, but also the giving away of any "spirituous or fermented liquor" on polling day is an offence "if the sale or gift is made within any hotel, -hop, or oilier place. Anyone who pays an elector s fare or who hires or lels a conveyance for the puroe of taking electors to or from the polls is guilty of an "of fence, which, although committed by an agent without the knowledge of the candidate, is uffineiit to have the election set aside. The old trick of publishing anonymous scandal sheets in the dying hours of a campaign has not the same ixissibililies it used to have. In order that the responsibility for this kind of printed matter may be brought home to the persons who publish them, the law requires that there shall appear on every advertisement, poster, dodger, etc.. isued in reference to an "election, the name ami address of the printer and the person by whom it is published. The omission of this information renders both printer and customer liable lo penalties. Regarding campaign funds with one not unimportant exception all contribution lo any campaign fund must be made by individuals. No unincorporated association or company may tinder any circumstances apply its funds for election purpose even through an official agent, ami thi is equally true of all in rorimrulil bodies, exceid tliti-e. which have been ini nnr.-itil for political purpose alone.

These indicate some of (he pitfalls along the straight and narrow path of the prospective statesman. One unwary slep on the part of a candidate or hi followers will put the opponent on the baud wagon at thcNasl day.

Evolution as Much a Fact as Crumbling of Mountains and Erosion of the Deep Valleys " (By Julian Hu1ey. in the Manchester (in.trdian Long Wfore Darwin's time men had KH"tilalsl iimmi Die possible evolution of one speries or one type of animals from others. Evene if we leave out of account the suggestions ofi other eras of thought, such as those of the ancient I i reek epoel or of St. Augustine in the early period of Christianity, and con-1 fine ontselves to the unitary development of Western thought which started with f lie Renaissance, we find numerous thinkers who advanced evolutionary theories. Prominent among these were Erasmus Darwin, Lamarck, anf Itnhcrl Chambers. The merit of Charles Darwin, however, was twofold. First, the facts themselves assumed a new form Jin his hands. As presented by liis predecessors, they had pro vided a legitimate basis speculation. His industry the earth's crust, deep valleys carved tint hy erosion, and islands lMie our own separated from the mainland by gradual subsidence. The evidence tn hnthj eases Is circumstantial, not di- ror,ree; but it is none the less patient reasoning piled and Darwin's Argument luied them until they formed at n,e nw ntffthnd which Darwin cliain of circumstantial evidence advan I to account for evoln- ii cogent that hut one eonclu- tion was what he called natural sion was possible.

If we ran find that evolution had occurred, lre-lany selective process at work mi vilci a piausmie alio reasnnUMii,mturt, it weuid have whole explanation of the mechanism by' which evolution could have .ben' brought about. i "Only a Theary" What the evidence was which! he collected in such oxerwhelm-1 ing battalion I have attempted lo outline in my first article. He marshalled it and showed that all of it was consistent with the idea that the various forms within a group had evelcd or evolved from some common aiirestral fyrtn, while a great deal of it was inconsistent with the only other theory which bad been put for ward to account for the facts naniHy, the theory that all the hiiudreds of thousand of different existing specie had been created as lliey are. once and for all, hy a divine fiat. Indeed, for much of the evidence no other theory seemed possible than that of evolution. Kspecjally was this true of the succession of rel.nlcd fossil types in the rocks of one area, ami of the exlslenee In em- bryos of higher animaN of or gans like gill-slits or nolocbonl now' found in the adults of lower type from which the higher forms could ie presumed to be descended. People snmeltmes talk of the theory of evolution as "only a theory." It Is "only" a theory in Ihl cnse that no one ha ye watched all Hie singes by which one species is produced from another snecies or otic. croup from another group; and this, of course, is chiefly a mat ter of time, since evolutionary processes appear lo demand reuluries or millennia Inslead of years or decades. Hut a scientific theory, in the accepted and proper sense of the term, i (a opposed lo a mere hypothesis) an attempted explanation which not only satisfies the known facts but , enable u-o roplie.y other facts, and (foes so heller than any other explanation that has been advanced.
