P‘arkhiu’s Meeting at Bradford Mr. Boultbee on beingintroduced by the Chairman, referred to Mr. Cnpreol’s posrtion as being somewhat 'unf'L-‘rtunate7 that he was one hundred years before his time. The project was the grandest evtlrbroachcd in the country.

I do not think it is difficult to find mfmy and suflicirnt reasons why the Mowut Government should be ‘opposed The. finances of the province are of :1 fixed character, and do not go on increasing us in the case of the Dom- inion. The Government should there- l'ore he \"erycnret'nl to confine the ex- penditure within certain limits, and oeonomise as much as is possible. Let us see whether such has been the case. i When Snudfield Mncl‘ictnald and M. C. Cameron arranged our affairs 0n a scheme of economy, there were many important. matters to settle and put in order. All ofthese questions are now disposed of Sandfieldhad a la ge and n l I 4â€"... I . flourishing bnsmess at Cornwall when he was called upon to form an Adininstra- ‘ tion. He gave up this lucrative practice y and came to Toronto, satisfied with a salary of €34,000, and an indemnity of $400. lontrast this w1th Mowat,s' actions. He has a large business in Toronto. and he attends'to it, when he should he attendingr to the business of the country. Instead of a salary of 34.000. he draws $5.500, and an in- demnity of$800. besides having a large income from his private business as' a lawyer. The expense of Government has been largely increased in every department by the Mownt adminstratiori, and no apparent reason therefore. I challenge Wilson and every other de- iffntht‘ of Mowat to successfully contra~ dict this. I believe Wilson has made an enormous mistake in Saying that there was a surnlus of $5,000,000 at the beginning: of1878. I do not believe the Mowat Government has a surplus of‘ 0L ‘9 a millions at the present moment. They dissipated the surplus of four millions left by Fandfield. about three years after he was defeated, and E do not believe they have since made it up The history of the manner in which the wealth of our timber districts were squandered is enough to condemn any Government. One of the first acts of the Mowat Gomrnment was to sell 5, 000 square miles, without having it surveyed or valued. There was no necessity for doing this. The money was not: required. But they put the tirriber up at auction. about six weeks before the House met, and sold it at a ridive’ulo‘usl‘v low figure to some of their friends." When we. on the Conservative side, saw more than halfthe timber inâ€" terest thus disposed of. we believed it was time to try and put a stop to such nefarious transactions, In the. interests of the country. We moved a resolution declaring that we believed “ it. was ,in- expedient to dispose of this large and valuable property ‘without a vote of the inwhoumfitxlmfinusnébnéthemitten” Criesolut'ipn down, and the‘yl’d'm-sggom L 2.. |. ow, l 1 «:urruption as selling 1118 Crown lnndsin the manner Mrwat has done.

This system is followed thrfiugh- out every department, all the stores for usylums, gnols, otc.. being purchased without tender or competition. .. Now, gentlemen. Iupprehendell that this is not, the way in which the hurd-thinkiim men of this country wish the public businuss to be Curried on. I think tlwy want affairs con-- ducted as uuder Saufield, at about; one-half the expense. J, .ges say that from the day the session opens “they sit with the perspimtion iun- tiing down their backs, fearing that he will hungle the matter still more.” Mr. W'ilson has referred to the Mechanics’ Lien Act Well I have 110L518 yet. seen any good come out of it, hat I have seen it. do a great deal of harm. Neither the contractors nor their employees are satisfied with the Acl. I hnvP'Suen them come in shoals to our Office in Toronto, trying: to find out what it means. It is full of flaws. There is a came on hand now, where a. contractor engaged in huilding.It a church; hns su manivulutm! his affairs by this Act that it will takeover thirty suits to decided which set nf men should get paid. The Marriedv Woman's Law htis HlSQ lroved a failure, there being three rcnses ,u'gere it has covered fraud for evezynne where good has been done. u: Thepcofi e. my i principle that a Government could sell 5,000 square miles of' timber 'Without the knowledge or sanction of Purlizl‘ ment. The trifling sum that was ren- lizcd is now about gone. 'l‘he opposi- tion then moved another resolution stat- ing “ that we believed it inexpedient to sell so large a portion of' timber lands, without first. having: it survey ed and explored.” They called on their follow- ers to vote this motion down also, and it was done. They thus confirrmd the pvinniple that the Government could sell 70 or 80 Counties without having it surveyed or cxplored. For the benefit of a few friends the interokts of the whole country were thus sacrificed. Wi‘son says he thinks Mr. ansst should ho supported on vecnunt (It‘vthe improveâ€" ments he has made in laws.

He said the country had lpassed its Verdict yof' acquitted. But Lille 1 people said lhey would rgive them anofher llriul. aud had found out Iliat instead of lfretting better they were growing worse. i The credit of any surle that the Mownt ; Government now possess was due to the leeonnmy of the Sandfield Government. ‘ The sun'nles is made up to lOOk like $5000.. :000. but there are many iloms included that should not be. If Snudlield had taken creditforsimilnr items his surplus would llmve reached seven millions. l l v 1 Although there are no great. questions} to be deult with in the Local House, still it is a very important thing, when we have a] fixed revenue, to see that our resources are i not squandeth and our income wasted as they have been in the. past. The Crown Immls are fast becoming exhausted, and at the present rate, it is only a question of a very short time until direct taxation must be resorted to. I apprehend, howm‘er,th2tt any ordinary business man, or thinking farmer, who sees that the present Government are spending one-third more each year than is required to govern this Province, should and will withdraw their support. Gentle- men, 1 find that such is the case, the public records show it, you can easily ascertain the truth of this tor yourselves, and 1 Appeal to you to Show disapproval of 'this by vol- ingfur Parlthill, and against the vaat-- Frazer (}0\'el‘1}lflelll. [Applause] Mr, Wright, then referred to the timber sales.‘and how strange it was that the good laws passed by Muwat has all done harm. He insmnced the winding up ofthe Mercer Mr. Wright was then introduced. ['10 had bGI'Il speaking on the National Policy so long, that he was not sure whether he could say anything interest- ing on local politics. He would howâ€" ever, just touch on a few words that. \Vilson had given utterance to. ‘Vilson could not see anything very wrong in the Ministers of the Local House stumping the country on behalf of the Dominion. He seemed to forget that in times past Sandfield was abused and severely condemned for “ hunting" in couples." So strongly did the Globe and the Reform leaders feel on this ques" tton that they almost. staked their poti- 1 tical existence on it. Their actions at ithe late elections shows them to be what a prominent statesman once termed the party, “ an organized hypocrisy ” (applause) \Vilson sees no difference between Boultbee and Mowat in stump- in];r the country. There is a very great difference. Mowat shouldered the sins of the Dominion Ministers. and must be held resyonsible. The Ministers re- ceived a yearly salary for attending to public busintss, and not to canvas and stomp the country on behalf of their friends in the Dominion House. Boultn bee, however, only received a salary as member for the time Parliament was in session. When the [louse was not set. ting he was at liberty to do as he Wish- ed. Is it the action of honest men to receive a salary for attending to a certain work, and then fail to fulfil their agree The question of non-resident, he noticed, was always brought forward to hide something which the other side did not. Wish to be seen. Wilson could not point to one question likely to 313% pruâ€" judicial either to the interest of Bradford 01' Mullnur. A gentleman in the “audience said “ Wilson would be elected”. Wright rrquested lnin never to prophesy until he knew, and then related the story of nn lt'ishman, who, havmg enjoyed a hearty laugh in anticipation of the fun he would ha’ve in tac'kling a bull, soon found good find sufficient reason to congratulate him- self upon having had his laugh before the battle took place ' ~ 1HOW-Ts :1 \‘er‘ly strnrngc thing: that you do not find any Grits 1n astrong‘1r Conservative Riding. Butter would not melt in their months in South Simcoc, but in South \Vellington ‘they note no such gentle creatures, \Vilson won’t vote want. of confidence in the Mowat Government. He goes th re ‘if an honest man. to vote down any motion of wantof‘ confidence. He says he is in favor of' the Orange Bill. The story of the Scotch lalrd who thought no one would dare to insult him, on a bridge unless he could swim, illustrated Wilson’s position. . Wilson would not insult (or ‘oppose) the Orangemen of South Simone because he could not swim, (or do without their support.) The notion of the Mowat Government in the Orange Hill had shown their profession about theOrder to be a hollow hypocâ€" risy. The Reformers pretended to be the good friend of the Orange Order, but in reality they were not so. They ltadjust been playing with them. As long: as they kept Fraser in the cabinet, the Orangemen would never get justice. He circulated a srecch vamongst the Catholics, intending: to rouse‘ up their passions, that of itselt'thould be suflici- entto condemn the party. No Orange' man can get hold of that. speech ; it is only given to their enemies. If the Or'angemen of'SOuth' Simcoe' are trite to themselves they Will not vote to send a man to Parlianxcnt, to support a Gov- ernment which numbered such a fire brand amongst its members. staggnémsfi ngfifiockhiu 3:9; tun M- n, in 5.1" r‘ .vtm ‘qu a Eler 1e cfim‘é’ h'b‘re, but ya It: son ‘goes down to support a Government the ieader of which does not. live in the Riding he represents.

Owing to the Barrie eleven not putting in appearance until new one o’clock, there was not sufficient. time to complete the two in- nings on both sides, and the consequence was, the game, us is always the case in a. one day's match, was decided on the first innings. Barrie from the outset felt quite confident of victory, and frequently members of the team were hoard to back up their opinion by offering to bet three dollars to one on the result. rJ‘he Brudord players. and their friends, were lacking in that bralggudocio which their onponents evinced, and did noteccept many of the offers nme. lmow~ ing us they did that Bunio had seldom mustered ‘togctheru stronger team, and in that number was one of Bradford’s oldest veteransâ€"Mr. J as Buddy.
