MR. FOSTER

Speaks To Old Friends in New Glasgow.

Speaking at New Glasgow, N.S , Mr. Foeter a.dressed himself particularly to the liberals in the audience, the old liberals who had fought their party’s battles many a time, and he took for grented that the old liberale would, if they spoke out, ask him to refrain from recalling history. But he intended to dwell§jo: history very considerably. He loved history, and a ssudy of i: was to the advantage of the Liberal~Conservatiye party aod he would not consent to blot it out. He challenged the young men be fore him toread the history cf Canada for the past thirty years and decide to which party their allegiance should be given, Mr. Foster proceed to consider the greatness of the Dominion on the Pacific coast, and its fertile prairies, its great transeontinental railway, the develop- ment of our.coal, iron and other indust- ries, showing how, all through eighteen long years measures tbat brought them into being and gave them permanence Kad been opposed by the liberals with »]! their might, though now they keep asking people to look at them as if inthe past they had favored not tried toruin al! that had been accomplished. He asked liberals

who bad been houwest when they cried out against an expenditure of $38,000,000 if they could be honest now in supporting men who had added many millions to the country’s outlay. Where are your leaders today and all on which they had pledged themselves ? The situation re- minded him of the Indian who said he was not lost but that hie wigwam was lost. If men, who so openly violate their pledges, as bad the Laurier-Ta;te-Blair aggregation, were allowed to remain unre

pulsed, ministers of the gospel might as well cease preaching and teaching recti~ tude of purposes or performance. Pun- ishment swaits them. There could be nothing more dangerous to the body po- litic than to allow political leaders to take solemn pledger, obtain power thereon, openly violate their vows,and then go un- punished. Yet Premier Leurier says: “What are you going to do about it, we are here and you are there.” Mr Foster expreased confidence in the result, when the people shall be given an opportunity to speak, that they will repulse the pub- lie immorality of which the Laurier- Tarte aggregation are guilty. He went on toshow what the government had done or wi at thev had attempted te do, and had failed, failures that were a good thing forthe country. He touched on the regretiable fact thet Canada was | ist in the procession of colonies that had sent soldiers to fight the empire’s battles in South Africa;but he proudly witnessed that her sons by their deeds of bravery and heroism had given to Canada a grand place in the temple of fame.
