THE BY-ELECTION.
i (To the Editor.) Sir, —All decent people here endorse your remarks on a section of the mob at Inglewood on election night, who evidently w<>re annoyed at Major Hine getting such a majority of votes here, where the foreign element is so great Every second person you meet Is an alien of some sort —Pole, German. Austrian, Swiss, or extreme Irish. If Major Hine, with his clean record and services to his country, is not safe from a mob, certainly an ordinary soldier is not. Many of them pleaded their foreign birth to get out of going to the war.—l am, etc., W. G. WILSON. [This correspondence Is closed.—Ed.]
