A metinge'f the West York Liberal Asswiation was held in a. parlor of the ‘Shakespear Hotel, Turon to, on Thursday, to consider several matters relating to the Wurking of the organizations, and to elect u‘fiicei's for the ensuing year. In the absence, through illness, of the President of the Association, Mr. \Vm. A. \Vallis, thy Vice- President. Dr. McConnell. noeuipied the chair. After the preliminaries of the meeting were en‘ mad it was stated that the receipts for the \Vest York Reform demonstration were $189,673, and the expenditure $170.85. The follnmng msélution was mov'ed by Mr. \Vinchuster, mud seconded by Mr. Boyle=~ Annual Meeting of the Wa Ya Reform Associ- ation. The Yurkville News, of last week, in re farting to the members of our Cullnty Cu unci], terms them “those hnyseeds that compose the York Cnunty Council.” The vNc'ws is apt at times to kick (over the mi- (‘88 ofjoumalistic pn‘rpriety ; and to up- ply n, term so irrelevant to a body of men than whom a more honorable, intelligent and influential body could not. be found in any county or city in the Dominion, is, tn say the least, a glaring impropriety. The impellent motive is so evident. that the News man is not elevated tlnerebv in the eyns of his brotherjuurnolists, or the g-yn'blic generally. Mr. John A. Macdunel], éver whose head it was seen fit; to place the motto ‘ Our Future Hope,” at a, meeting to or- ganize a. Young Men’s Liberal Conserva- tive Association in ToronLu, on Saturday night,made the following statement at that meeting, “The more our party is wropg the more we should stick to it.” True, indeed ! This has been the secret powarof the party in the past, and is its “abiding Hope" for the “future.” The annual meeting of the Vaughan Tuwhship Reform Assuciabion, Was held at the 'l‘ nwn Hall on Tuesday.

The meeting was immed- iately organized‘fcr business-and nomina- tions were called for. ML'G. IW. Badgerow, M. P. P. , was nomivmted by Mr. T. A. Hastings, and segqnded by Mri S. Crammer. Mr. J. D. Edgar was nominated by Mr. R. Bruce, who referred to his abili- ty and moral worth. and said he believed Mr. Edgar would do credit to the riding were he elected. This nomination was managed by Mr. J. C. Daniels. A mass meeting of the Refarmers of East York was held in Unionville on Thu- rsday last for the purpose of choosing a. candidate to contest the riding in the Libâ€" eml interest at the next Dominion elect- ion. Though the wads were bad it was she largest and most influential meeting of the kind ever held int he riding. A special train‘conveyed large numbers from Toronto, Yurkville and the southern part of the riding. On motion of J. M. Lawrence the 10th of January was fixed for the text meet- ing 0f the Association; Toronto the place of meeting. Large, Influential and En- thusiastic Liberal Convention. The hy-laws were read and on motion referred to the Committee for consideraâ€" tiun. Mr. Patterson, M.P.P., then ammunm ed that he would not again offer himself for re-eleclion. and therefore what he lmd to By would be considered apart from motions outside of the good of the emanci- atiun. Men, he said. should not be put on the pulling sub-divisions who were unfit for their Work; he had the bitter experience of this unfitness, had known appointees who could not be got to call a meeting, who had no system, and had even seen lists without a scrr: tineer. Yet By the regulations the candidates were in the hands of this machinery, and it was grossly unfair to tie a. candidate up by by such inefficient agents. There was now a. demand for thorough organization for he believed there would be an election within the next year. Mr. Patiersnn thought a. large number present were Ignorant of the clmtents at the by-laWS, and moved that 1,000 copies be printed and circulated. This motion was carried. ()n a question pertaining to the hy- laWS of the institution coming up, Mr. Lawrence mid there had been a commit.- tee drafted tn draw up bylaws. He thought they ought to be read, and they should be printed. 9 On motion of Mr. 1mm vote of Hm.an Was given m the late Prumdeut, Mr. W, A. Wallis forhis services while Frasi- dent of the \Vest York Reform Assucia- tiun. He expressed his gratitude for the pnâ€" sitiun, he pointed ontwhat he cnimulei‘ed to be the duty of (ill cnnnected with Lh» ()rganizatlmi.

The (ll- visinn association which were the mats of the work. had much to filo, and he said he should see and here from them in 88-1- son, and pointed out: that. the Central Assnciatinn slmuld have cognizance of what is now being done in the divisions. After the election, Dr. McConnell stat- ed that. he thought- Ml excellent choice had been made in the selection of Mr. Winchester. He believed he had the “gut, the ability. and the tact for the position; but while saying this of the newly elected, ha had to say Hi the late incumbent. uf the office, Mr. W. A.
