ISAAC CRO§B 1 D BLOUGH “ Busted ! ” Yes, that applies to my- self and the Government. In the one case it is perpetual; in my own case it is to return home busted after a. two weeks’ holiday after our great victory. I had to commemorate the event with that pro- verbial u ell earned holiday. But we have busted that wretched, dishonest combination we have fought to rid the country of for the past 18 years. It has been deposed by a. verdict of the people. Don’t you feel proud of the part. you took in it 1’ I do. Even the eloquence and magnetism of Sir Charles, together with the corruption fund extorted from the manufacturer and contractor and the threats of the bishops, failed to win for them this time. Some say it was Tupper’s egotism that killed him. But the great “ I am ” has been relegated to a. back seat. At Cornwall the day before the elect- ion in speaking of Mr. Lsurier’s claim to the premiership when compared with his own, Sir Charles said:â€"" Mr. Laurier wishes you to make him premier. Well, his ambition is for a position which must be filled by an able man.” 011 that ground Sir Charles disputed Mr. Laurier’s claim, but advanced his own. The day after the election Sir Charles furnished a tvpe Written interview to the Montreal Star, in which he said:â€"“ When I came to Canada last winter I found the Con- servative party utterly demoralized.” Conservatives are now asking whether his presence as leader has improved that condition. Now that we have driven them from their ambush, it does not follow that the battle field has been cleared. With the same tenacity and unscrupulous tactics which has enabled them to hold on to oflice so long, they will fight to recover the ground they have recently been obliged to surrender. They are desperate in their misfortune, and will leave no stone unturned to recover possession of the treasury benches. n n 1 .I,. It was a narrow escape for Canada that Tupper and his followers 'did not secure another lease of power. They had de- termined to proceed with the expenditure of money on public works on a. scale that would have astonished the country had the verdict been in their favor. Since the result of the election was known I had the pleasure of spending a day with our new premier at his country residence at. Arthsbaskaville, a town 108 miles east of Montreal on the line of the Grand Trunk railway. A more charm- ing spot for a. holiday it would be im- possible to imagine. At the foot of a long range of hills stands the country home of Mr. Lauriet, a large brick build.- iug surrounded by a. beautiful grove of hardwood trees. I did not wonder at his saying he would dearly love to rest there for a week or so before entering upon the responsibilities the people of Canada. in their wisdom have imposed upon him. ‘ -- v . ..l uyvu ...... Discussing the future Mr. Laurier said the country had nothing to fear from hasty, radical or revolutionary changes in the tariff policy at his hands. It was his intention to have the tariff question fullv investigated before any attempt his intention to have the tariff question I fully investigated before any attempt ‘ would be made in the direction of recon- struction, Whatever changes it might be found necessary to make would be in the interest of the consumer and the people generally, and not framed for the sole benefit of the manufacturer and monopolist as at present. Nothing, however, would be done in the way of tariff Chang"; this session, and upon this point the country could rest msured. Speaking of the honor the electors had conferred upon him, Mr. Laurier said that if he could be made the instrument through which racial and creed prejudices could be made to disappear in Canada, the highest point of his ambition would have been reached. It the moment of writing it is impossi- ble to say when Sir Charles will hand over the keys of office. Since his defeat he has made several hundred appoint- ments of his friends to office, but the Governor-General has remonstrated against his conduct. It is said to-day that he wlll probably resign to morrow You will feel proud when you see the cabinet slate Mr. Laurier will announce. It will be one ot the strongest govern- ments ever formed in Canada. Now that our friends are coming into power, it does not follow that they can do no wrong, for they are not immacu- late. That which we have condemned in our opponents during the past 18 years we should not condone if it should de- velop among those we have been support- ing. It is to be hoped that our friends in Parliament will set up to their pro- fessions of honesty and economy. If they do not their lives will be short, and I for one will contribute towards making their term of office a short one. What we want is good, straight, honest govern- ment. If we get it our country will go ahead. The press can do more in keep- ing a government straight and in securing ‘ clean government than any other agency. ‘ As regards myself, if I find any Curran Our Ottawa Letter. m 1 N on -E$$entials, Liberty Bridge steeds, Fredericton Bridge frauds, ($0., cropping up among those we have assisted to place in power, I wish '2) be in a position to show them up as I have shown the other chaps up. and of that I think I have done my share. Richmond Hill Defeats the Tecumsehs One of the most interesting and 'excit- ing games of lacrosse that has ever been witnessed was played on the Island Oval, Hanlan'a Point, on Saturday last, be- tween the Tecumseh II. and Richmond H111. Both teams had come prepared for a. hard fight. and both played in fine form. The Richmond Hill team was ex- actly the same as that which defeated the Tecumsehs here on June 6th, but no less than eight changes had been made in the Tecumsehs, which fact made the To- ronto buys confident, of success. The weather being cloudy was unpropitious for a large crowd of spectators, neverthe- less Richmond Hill sent a goodly number of spectators to laud their boys to vic- tory. The match had been adverlised for 3 p. m.. but owing to an unavoidable delay it was 4 o’clock when Referee Hodgson blew his whistle, and the teams lined up as folluws: RICHMOND HILLâ€"P. Powell, J. Mcâ€" Conaghy, J. qus, F. Sims, A. Powell, \V.|Sa.vage, G. Cooper, R. Glass, Jno. Ough, W. Trench, A. Shierk, W. Powell. W. E. Wiley, captam. HTEdUMSEfié.â€"Baker, Irwin, Tozer, Cameron, Laurie, Dewar, Jack, Mathers, Irwin, Atwell, Baker, Bunsell. H. B. Clemes, captain. Game 1.»-Cooper and Jack faced; the former secured the ball and passed to R. Glass, who threw to Ough, he to Shierk, who shot, but I‘ozer intercepted and re- lieved and the rubber travelled into Richmond Hill territory, where the Tecumsehs indulged in some neat. com- bination play. Finally Bunsall threw at the flags, but. Sims cleverly stopped. am! ran to the side to throw, closely followed by C. Baker, who in checking him was struck on the throat by the ball and time had to be called. When play was resumed. Sims drew, and threw to W. Powell who in a. neat shot scored. Time 11 minutes. Game 2.â€"This was the longest game of the match. Neither men secured the face and a scufiie ensued from which Jack emerged with the ball and ran up the field until stopped by A. Powell. He then threw to Dewar, who gloat to Jno. Glass and the ball went out to centre, where cooper was waiting to receive it; he passed to Shierk who shot. but lrwin neatly caught and threw up the field to Bonsall. He however shot wide and P. Powell secured the sphere behind the flags and threw well down the field. B. Glass obtained possession of the ball, but on the point of shooting received a nasty gash on the head and the progress of the game was delayed. Glass pluckily took his place again. and when the game was recommenced the ball went up the field to Savage, who threw to Ough, who made a hot shot which Baker batted out, but Trench swiped through. Time 27 minutes. Richmond Hill 2; Tecumseh 0. Game 3.â€"Richmond Hill appeared in all t/zi: Gama 3.â€"Richmond Hill appeared over-confident and anxious to test their pugilistio abilities rather than to play scientific lacrosse. While the attention of the Richmond Hill players was thus agtVéECteâ€"cifltivxgrTééuinseEs gave a. brilliant exhibikiou of combination play, and shot and up went the umpire’s hand. Time 10 minutes. Game 4.â€"I‘he Tecumsehs rushed the play from the start, and Richmond Hill defence was somewhat rattled, with the result that. the Tecumsehs again scorgd. Time 5 mmutes. Game 5.â€" The score was even; excite- ment intense; both teams determined to win. Cooper got the ball, sent it up the field, and Cameron relieved by throwing out of bounds. Savage secured the face and threw to Shierk, who passed to Ough, who put the rubber through. and the score stood Richmond Hill 3; Tecum- ueh 2. Time 5 minutes. Game 6.â€"Ja.ck drew the hall and threw toward Richmond Hill flags, where McConaghy, by one of the catches and throws for which he is so well known, relieved and threw to the side. Then followed the prettiest combination of the day. Cooper obtained the rubber. pass- ed to Ongh, he to Trench, he to Shierk, who, aided by W. Powell’s splendid checking, scored. Time 10 minutes. Richmond Hill 4; Tecumseh 2. Game 7.â€"-â€"The Richmond Hill sup- porters were jubilanl: and fairly held possession of the grounds. The ball travelled towards the Tecumsehs goal, where it was secured by Tozer, who ran down the field and tried to break through the Hill’s stone-wall defence. He how- ever found out his mistake, and A. Powell obtained the ball and dodged Bonsall, who by a. peculiar decision of the referee was given a free throw. He shot at the flags and McConaghy caught, threw up BY FIVE GAMES TO TWO- 1zgs, Charity.” the field to Shierk, who scored. Time 4 minuses Four minutes remained to play, but neither team ‘scored, and Richmond Hill had won its third victory in the York District by 5 goals to 2. The Board met on Monday, July 6th. Members present: Messrs. Naughton, Switzer, Lynett, Newton, McConaghy, McDonald, Palmer, Storey, Harrison. Minutes of last meeting were read. and adopted.
