How many of the 1,353,735 whose names appear on the voters’ list fully re- alize the grave responsibility ihat now rests upon them. In six weeks they will be asked to determine whether for m.- otlier five years tliu same system of corrupt and dishonest. gm'ernment shall prevail; whether high taxation in criminal squandering (iiyour hard earned wages and savings shall continue, or whether shall he invested in the hands of such men as Wilfred Laurier, Sir Oliver Mow- at, Sir Richard C-irtwright, David Mills, L.

You have already been ,told than the success of Mr. Laurier at, the poll means the entry of Sir Oliver ‘anat in his cabinet. l‘u-dayIlearn that Mr. Lauriei’s success means the acâ€" ceptance of n pnsition in his cabinet by Premier Blair. of New Brunswick, and Premier Fielding, of Nova Scotia. FAMILY COMPACT. For a moment let us look at the con- dition in which we find the Tury camp with Sir Chas. Tapper and his political allies struggling for another lease of power. How suggestive : “power.” But. whet is the first thing that strikes the average elector? Is it the great strength of the personnel of the new cubinet’l I should say not. Dues it not impress those of you who are able to re- call the days of the “family compact ” and the desperate efl'orts it required by the ancestors of those who are now fight.- ing to free the country of a vicmus and corrupt form of government that has preysiled for the past 18 years. of how dangerously closu' we are approaching government by “ family compact ” once more. Behold the Tupper trinity; a strong combination; Tupper the elder; Tupper the younger, and relatiye Dickey in one government. If we base our conclusions on the axiom that in unity alone there is strength, we must have reached the opinion that dis- ‘ cord and dissension have been doing their work well among the Tory ranks during the past few years. A year ago we saw Sir Chas Hibbert Tnpper retire from the cabinet, and after aulking for a. tew (lays return to the fold. In Jnlv last we saw Caron, Onimet nnd Angers go out, and twa of them return. In January last we saw seven of them strike out, and six of them came back, a game of politi- cal “hide and go seek." Sir Cnurles Hibbert remained hidden then for modesty’s sake (he has not as much modesty now) that his father, Sir Charles, might go in. That record in itself of ministerial squabbling should have been sulficient to wreck any govern- ment, but on the theory that the devnl is grmd to his own they Were permitted to live and the work of disintegration went on. In forming his cabinet Sir Charles, after deposing h'ir Mackenzie, sent Caron, Ouiulet and Daly adrift, the three men who had stood by Sir Mackenzie, and re warded Angers, who had tried to wreck Sir Mackenzie‘s government, by taking him into his ministry. That. is only as regards disafl'ection within the executive. How do we find it among the rank and tile. During the past. session we saw Sir Charles Tupper reading such life lung Tories as McNeil, Weldon, Sproule and Clarke \anlnce out of the party because they would not digest and wear to all he told the House. For this he branded them :ruitors. A-more impolitic move was never attempted in the House of Commons. and there were not a. few to say that imbecility might prove even a. more (hugemus mm. to combat. than corruption. But what is this we read about; ex- Mayor nf Cornwall, Mr. Mulheln, who, on retiring a day or two ago as president of the ConswvuLive Assocmtiun, said:â€" “ The Hon. \Vilfrid Lauriei‘ has declared openly fur the adjustment of the tariff upon wise and conservative lines, and not with the view of destroying the in‘ dustriesuftlie country, and I believe that the common Sense of the people is strongly in favor of a. purer and more economical administration In the ex- penditure of the people’s munuy.” Mr. J. A. Chipman, a. prominent merchant of Halifax, has always taken a leading part in supporting the Conservaâ€" tive party. In announcmg his change of heart at a political meeting recently held in that city he said he had for some time been gradually coming to the canculsion that the so called National Policy was being made a [0010f the combines, used to enrich the few at the expense of the masses, and he had therefore concluded at last to follow Mr. Lauriur, " a. noble and honest patriot.” ” IL is true of Canada as it is true of the Ilnitecl States," he said, “ that a man who fursukes his party is a marked man. This is unlike Great Britain where, when a. government does not do right, the people turn them out. Here, however, a man seems to be Dnder an obligation to adhere to party-â€" to support it in its corruption.” A BROKEN AND SHATTERED PARTY Our Ottawa Letter. l . The sinner on the cross repented, but me still find Sir Charles up to his old tricks, although he knows he is on his political death-bed. Upon his being ap- pointed premier, the Hon. Joseph Cham- herluin, Secretary of State for the ‘ l Colonies, cabled Sir Charles his congratu- : lotions. The wily old saint took advant- age of it to turn that. cablegram to polit- ical account, and from one end of the Dominion to the other the government and their press produced it as an evi- dence that Mr Chamberlain endorsed the Conservative party, and that conse- ‘ quently in event at Sir Charles’ return to power he could be in a better position to negotiutmwith the British Government than Mr. Lanrier. Sir Charles’ game has been exposed, for Mr. Chamberlain has cabled that his congratulations were only personal. The ruling passion. with Sir Cuarlcs, is strong in political death. Is it a wonder, therefore, that the To- ronto Mail should have called him the prince of pulitical crucksmen. This was in 1891, It would now be ihteresting to hear from the Mail how they can snppult ‘ such a. man as they have painted Sir Charles. We are hearing such stories from con- verts every day. There are many life long Conservatives who have only been waiting for an opportunity to repudiate the leaders by whom they have been de- cewed. Ynn have read before this the mani- stm Sir Charles has issued to the elect- nrate of Canada in appealing to you for a renewal of your confidence. He starts out by saying:â€"â€"“ It is not my purpose to present. at. length reasons which should guide you to a hearty support of the Liberal-Conservazive cause in this ‘ national crisis.’ ” Sir Charles has had the honesty to admit that there is a “ national crisis,” but he does not tell you of the “ national calamity ” that would follow should you once again in- vest. himself and his colleagues with power to apply the remedies. That national crisis is the result of an increase from $140,000,000 to $253,000,000 in our national debt, of increased taxation and of the vicious system of hvodliug and corruption that has marked every move of tlre government at Ottawa during the pas} l? venrs. A political meeting was held in the Masonic Hall here on Thursday evening. The hall was filled at an early hour, seqeral of the front seats being occupied: by the ladies who always take an interest in the questions of the day. The meet- ing had been called by Mr.N.C.Wallace, who has represented West York for the past 18 years, and as discussion was in‘ vited, Mr. John Brown, the Patron can- didate, was also present. Mr. James McNeil was called to the chair, and it is needless to say he made an impartial pre- siding ntficer. Mr. Wallace and Mr. Brown being called mgether, it was ar- ranged that the latter should speak first, and that Mr. Wallace should close the meeting. member ’I ” He has supported a gmeru- l ‘ ment that was by their policy driving ‘ farmers and farmers’ suns from the farm. The speaker then turned his attention to the Manitoba. SChnOl question, said that he agreed with Mr. Wallace in his opposuion to the ro- medial bil|,but taunted his opponent with repenting only at the eleventh hour when he might have prevented the trouble 3 your or two befoi'o. When D'Altun Me» Cathy was speaking. and moving amendâ€" lnentsaguinai Snpumto schools and the dual language in the North \Vest, Mr. Wallace was silent, and when votes were taken he wus nbseut from the House. h‘]r.\Vallaca also condoned the M cGreevy- Connoly scandals which every honest man should condemn In 1895 Mr. Wallace had spoken for Ur. Montague in the Haldunand election, and assisted a Mr. Brown addressed the electrrs for over an hour. He commenced by saying that personally he entertained the best of feeling‘ towhrds Mr. Wallace, but as a member of Parliament for the riding he Considered that he had prawn n faxlure. There was one thing, howeVel‘, that the speaker was in accord with his opponent, and that was the plank of Briush Cun- nectiun. “ \tht,” asked the speaker. “ has West York got from Mr. Wallace during all the years that he has been the member ’I ” He has mapported a govern- ment that was by thelr policy dnving farmers and farmers’ suns from the criticised Mr. Wallace’s frequent nttac on the dignitaries of the Catholic churc Mr. Brown closed his remain ks by sayi that at some time in the near future would hold a. meeting at Maple, when would discuss the whole Patron platfor Mt. \Vallace theu addressed the me: ing for probably an hour and a half. 1 good naturedly protested against bei referred to by his opponent as a brilli: orator, and protested on account of 1Brown leaving khis speech forafuti meeting.

THE MANIFESTO. l firematédw on account of Mr. wingq‘his speech for afuture During his speech Mr. Wallace which Maple :h m J allace’a mast being a brilliant he said :â€"I am no prophet. but I will ven- ture to say that before this campaign is over Mr. Brown will be forced to “ climb- a. Lree.” Last summer, at the Weston meeting, I offered to resign my position in the cabinet, but my constituents would not agree to my doing so. Before 1 made my 12th of July speech, reterredr to by Mr. Brown, I' went to Sir Mac- kenzne Bowel], told him what I was going to say. and “tiered to resign. Mr. Bowell would not hear to it. It is true 1' differed with D’Alton McCarthy last year, but 1 am in accHrd with that; gentle- man to-day. 1 am prepared to defend all my votes in Parliament. Mr. Brown accused me of not voting on the 17lh of July,-1894. Why, on that day I was in the middle of the Atlanlic ocean. Mr. Brown professes to be an Orangeman, but after the description of the Orange hall in Walpole where the polling was done in Dr. Montague’s election I have doubts of his being a member of that order. Who ever saw such mottoes as “God Bless our Home,” and “Inniskillen and No Surrender ” in an Orange Lodge. I was nominated by my party, but my opponent was thrust upon the riding: by less than a baker's dozen of the electors. Even the Patrons afterwards repudiath him. (Mr. Brownâ€"That’s not so) I differed with the government only on the question of the remedial schools. I did not feel that the government were under an obliâ€" gation to act for the Catholic- minority. The judges of the Privy Council had said that it was not essential that the Manâ€" itoba statute of 1890 should be repealed, and Mr. Dickey, Minister of Justice, stated the government could act or not just as they pleased. In the city of Windsor there were about 5000 Catholics and they did not ask for Separate schools. In Ontario, two‘thirds of the Catholic children were taught. in the Public schools, and the pupils evidently got on well together. For 19 years the Separate schools in Manitoba were veryineificient. but during the past six years the schools had been doing far better work. The ‘ Grits and Tories had pledged themselves in two elections in Manitoba in favor of National schools, therefore the province could not be coerced. It was being done I to please the priests and bishops at Qgebec. Bishop Gravel] had induced Cardinal Vaughan to tamper with the Privy Council, and Bishop Cameron had. stigmatized all those who opposed re- medial legislalion as “‘ Hell Inspired Hypocrites.” The priests plainly told the people not to use their own judgment but to follow the church. It has also been proven that Bill of Rights No. 4 was a furgery. Before closing, a vote of thanks, moved by Mr. Wallace, and' seconded by Mr. Blown, was tendereé the chairman for the able manner in whlch he per- formed his duty. Although thine was the beat of order the meeting was devoid of all enthusiasm. "Cilieérrs were gwen for the Queen, Mr. Wallace and Mr. Brown. game. from th‘ Exec tives fl!
