A Large and Weill-Con- ducted Meeting.

The Country Inti - Anner- atignist.

SPEECHES BY THE CANDIDATES.

Good Prospects for these Who Are Against Direct Taxation.

--—

One of the largest and most orderly meetings over held in Mount Stewart was held last evening. W. J. Logan, Esq., oc- cupied the chair, an@d H. F. Feehan acted as secretary.

Mr. Davies made the opening speech. He dwelt largely om bis own actions as re- preseutative of the Cownty, and criticised at great length the actions of the Govern- ment regarding the sales and granting of lands in the Northwest, and in dissulving the House in 1882, on the ground that capital would come into the country if the National Pelicy was tirmly established. He briefly referred to the tunnel question, claiming credit for having laughed Senator Howlan out of parliament regarding the subway. He professed to be a strong sup- porter of the tunnel, and said that Sir John’s letter to Senator Howlan did not bind theGovernment. He read Mr. Laurier’s

The duty would then we taken off, and German starch would come in and we would be thrown out of the American market as we were out of the British market. Mr. ferguson carried the meeting completely.

Mr. Welsh made one of his characteristic speeches. He referred to his own parlia- mentary career, and claimed that he did a great deal for the Islaud.

Mr. Blake followed. In a-convincing speech, he said it was the duty of a represen- tative to conside: first the true interests of the country, instead of using his position for mere party purposes. The tunnel ques- tion was the first-rate question for this Province, and the people should unite upon it in support of the Government of Sir John Macdonald, who is certain of remaining in power, and who, from his past record in carrying forward all the great public works uudertaken in Canada, is the only party from whom we could hope to get anything Mr. Blake contrasted the policy of the

Government and Opposition regard- ing public works. The grit party regarded these as bribes, while

the Government honestly advocated them for the improvement country. Mr. Bleke pledged himself to demand the construction of the tunnel if the cost should be found to be at all reasonable. Mr. Blake was strongly in favor of a fair and equitable system oi Reciprocity with the United States, such as was consistent with the maintenanee of our own institutions; but was strongly opposed tv the American fad known as Unrestricted

teviprocity, which he said was unpatrictic, |

anti-Canadian and anti-British, and would open a straight road to annexation, It would also crush our own country by imposing an enormous load of direct taxation. Mr. Blake showed by the speeches of American politi- einns and the plotting of Grit Leaders with American intriguera, that the Grit party were working in ¢o!llusion with the Americans to oust, at any cost, the true friends of Canada. Mr. Blake, although laboring under indisposition, spoke exceedingly well, was listened to with great attention, and made a first-class impression on the meeting.

Altogether, the meeting was a grand success for the Liberal-Conservatives and the pros- pects are that Mount Stewart will give a good account of itself.

telegrain to hiwself, and said it bound the , whole L:beral party to the tunnel. He) clossd by claiming that the Liberal party were the true friends of the country, be- cause they adveeated Unrestricted Rvei- procity. He ssid that the farmers, under that plan, would make for- tunes out of starch, as they would have the entire control of the American market for that artic'e.

Mr. Ferguson Oe He said he would alio Ir. Davies to draw a pore “his track by “dwelling ove the dead aud buried issuvs he had raised. Most of the questions discussed by Mr. Davies were passed upon by the country at former elections. He wouid take Mr. Davies where the wool was short, and dis- cuss the two great questions now before the country. He said instead of taking. credit for laughing Senatur Howlan out of | Parliament he should be ashamed of his half- heartedness and insincerity in regard to the subway or tunnel. His conversion was a late one. lt was oniy about three weeks ago that he wrote a letter in the public press declarivg that the tunnel question was only raised fur election purposes, and, that the Tories would shout themselves’ hoarse in advocating the tunnel question at election day. Now he is shouting tunnel himself. The people would now see who was their friend. The Conservatives had worked the tunnel up to its present posi- tion, and deserved all the credit. Every one knew that Sir John would be returned to power for a long time tu come and that | it was only from the Conservatives that the tunnel and other public works would be ob- tained. Mr. Ferguson showed that the Hon. Mr. Laurier, when here, could not be got to say one word about our communication with the Mainland, al-- though his attention was called to it both personally and through the press. Now,after Liberal-Conservatives have nailed their | colors tothe mast, Mr. Laurier sends a telegram to Mr. Davies favorable to the tunnel. Mr. Ferguson quoted from Sir Richard Cartwright and other grit leaders who condemned expenditures for public works, saying that they were bribes to the electors, and especially the grant of $20,- 000 to Prince Edward Island as being given in utter violation of the compact entered into at Confederation. Mr. Ferguson then took up the question of trade with the States, showing that the Liberal-Conserva- tives were the only true advocates of reci | procity. Time and again Sur John Mac- | donald’s Governmert, aa well as McKen- zie’s Administration, had tried tu arrange 4 treaty, but they were not successful. Now they steod squarely on the ouly honest reci- procity policy, viz., fuciprocityin the natur- ai products, with modifications to suit the altered circumstances of both countries The grits were trying to deceive the coun- | try, and were advocating a disloyal, inj ail- ous and monstrous scheme. He showed that the effect of this scheme would be to

from the rest of the world. It would bring about an oppressive sysiem cf direct tax- ation. He estimated tha: $14,000,000 of revenue would be lost, aud Pruce Edward Island’s share of this would be $350,000 a year. This would be nearly twelve times as great as the Davies tax curse, and was @ burden which the people coud not bear, On

a $100 a year. He showed that Sir Richard Cartwright said that we had to raise $30,000, - 000 anyway, and that it mattered little whether it was raised by direc: or indirect taxation. He warned the farmers to beware as this system would ruin them. The money- lenders would escape while t':e p»or proper ty- holders would be rujued. Mr. Fergusen remarked that Mr. Davica showed by his remaiks on the starch question, that he did not understand what he was talking about. It, as Mr. Davies said, American starch

Late advices from Dublin state that several Irish bishops have written to their clergy iu the same tone as Archbishop Walsh, warning them agaiust the National League methods of Harrington and Parnell Harrington has replied to Archbishop Walsh. He says the Archbishop misjudged the circular issued in behalf of the lesgue.

The circular, he states, is the same as that issued annually, and he (Harringten) before sending it out, informed Messrs. Dillon and O’Brien that in c.nsequence of the collapse of

nthe American tour he had determiued to ask

the Leugue branches..to help the evicted tenants. tata

In conclusion, Mr. Harrington earnestly advises Archbishop Walsh pot to commit the priests too hastily to a policy that would in- volve the division of the Irish party into two hostile camps in every parish.

Deratinc CiLvB.-—Pursuant to notice, a largely attended meeting was held in Albany on Wednesday, the 4th inst , for the purpose of organizing a Debating Club in that locality Afier several spexkers had made introductory remarks on the matter, the following were elected officers :—

Chairman—G. Bell.

Secretary—J. E. Matthews.

Executive Committee—Arthur Harvey, John R. Cameron, John Donnelly, David Mc- Kay and Thomas Arnett.

The debate for next Tuesday night is; ‘* Which has cansed the most misery, War or Intemperance ?” Judging by the enthusi- asm displayed at the lust dubate, this organi- zation bids fair to be a great success.

Sir Paimie Mitr, the great English horticulturist, writing in 1740, says: ‘* The best method to have cabbages good is to pro- cure fresh seed from abroad every year, for it is apt to degenerate in England in a few years.” The above is a simple illustration of the fact that the best seeds will rapidiv de- generate under unfavorable conditions. The wise will take heed, therefore, and buy their seeds of D. M. Ferry & Co., Windsor, Ontario, whose world-wide reputation as the best and most reliable, as well as the most extensive seed growers and dealers, is due to the fact that they take advantage of every circumstance of climate, soil, methods of culture, selection of seed-plants, ete., to procure the best possible seeds and keep them up to that high

making would go down under unrestricted reciprocity, how long would the Americans maintein a high duty on statch sim ly to protect the starch industry of P. E, Island.
