In Support of the Ministerial Candidate

Strong and Stlrring Addresses by ` Horace Haszerd, Premier A Peters,l.l. Hughes, M. P. .

and Others.

mt avening he hear a presentation ei the Liberal cause and down to nearly ,eleven 1 o’elook a number were standing in :the aisles and open spaces. Hon. B. Rogers presided and had about him on the plat-

form many of the leading Liberals of the ____

Island.

Hon. John Balderston was first called

upon and proclaimed himself aa old Lib- G, eral and proud of it, who supported his T

party without fee or reward and predict-

ed another Liberal triumph in West °° Queens. ` P'

William Molatt, of Mayfield was

. re

called up from the auditorium to the

platform and from the platform to make a N speech. He argued that a tariff for

revenue such as we now have was better fa

suitelw this province and to Canada

than the higher tariff advocated by the w Conservative leader. IN

Horace Haezard, the Liberal Candi- date was the next speaker and waa re-

ceived with hearty cheering. I-Ie spoke L

of his recent trip into the country. the ’“ courteous treatment and favorable atten- IN

tion received during his canvas. He proceeded to deal with the Liberal policy

and record of which he was proud. Seven B* years of Liberal rule had given a splendid na increase ln our trade and industry, in our IN

farmers' prosperity, inthe export of all lines of Canadian production. The re~

venue of the country had proportionately Ll advanced, yieldinga handsome surplus in

after providing in the most liberal manner for the public services. He had met con- W tradictory statements from Opposition s'r speakers. Sometimes he was told we had still the National Policy, having stolen it from the Conservatives, and in the next M

breath was told that we must have Co a higher tarih’ to give ads- C0

quate protection to our industries.

But we had not the old tariff; it had been PU

lowered. We have a. tariff for revenue giving incidental protection; a policy

satisfactory to the people, as he believed K;

the electors of West Queens will show Wi

one week hence. They were able to show “P

double and treble the progress under the _

reform tariff in seven years that the T Conservatives could show in 18 yeurs under the old tariff. If more protection was everto be given let it be to the farmers and laboring classes. He praised the Minister of Agriculture for what had

been done to advance our dairying, fruit pl.

and poultry interests. ‘ranching upon us transportation he explained that the B
