ARY 9, 1887.
THE CAMPAIGN,
MEBRTINGS TN KING’s COUNTY.
The meetings held ‘in King's County last week were attended by large numbers of the electors. Great interest is taken in the elec- tion and the Conservative Candidate are meet- ing with great success.
The meetings at» Momtagne and Peake’s , Station were pretty evenly divided ; but those at Cardigan Bridge and Dundas were two to one in favor of Muttart and Macdonald,
Hon. Mr. Prowse put the matter in a nut- shell when he asked Drs, Robertson and Mac- Intyre ata meeting at Cardigan Bridge, if they would refuse to sapport Mr. Blake,should the Liberals gain power, if he (Mr. Blake) would not give the Island the $20,000 a year that Sir John promised the delegation that was lately in Ottawa. Dr. Robertson would have answesed the question, but Dr. Mac- Intyre tokl him not to do so, and no answer was given.
The Opposition candidates assert that the Liberals will take the duty off American manufaetured goods, such as farming iv:ple- ments, cotton, sugar, etc., etc., if they are re- turned,
At Peake’s Station meeting, Hon. Mr. Prowse also asked» Dr. Robertson if ihe would refuse to support Mr. | Blake if these promises were
not carried ont. No answer was given, |however; and the Opposition clearly evinced that they had no faith iu what they were pro- mising the people. They know that Mr. Blake has declared that “free trade is im- practicable,” and they also know that the ‘‘tail caanot wag the dog.”
The meetings in King’s County are ably jconducted. The speakers on both sides have (more than average ability, and the public questions before the electors are discussed without any personallties being dragged in.
This is as it should be. The people want to hear both sides, and will fhen judge who to vote for.
At Dundas,on Saturday,the court house was packed with electors. Dr. Muttart, Messrs. A. C. Macdonald, Cyrus Shaw, George F. Owen, J. G. Sterns, H. L. McDonald, H. L. McDonald and J. Nichols defended the Government, Drs, Robertson and Melntyre, Messrs. Mannoah Rowe, G. B. McKachern, J. G. Serimgeour and a Mr. Robertson from Lot 65, spoke in favor of the Opposition. No division was taken; but the Government side was clearly the most popular,
MEETING AT CAVENDISH.
One who was present writes :—‘‘ The meet- ing at Cornwall on the 5th inst. was large. Mr. George White wasin the chair. Mr. Davies spoke frst. He went through the usual amount of abuse of the Government, They were extravagant, corrupt, venal, vile. The Canadian Pacitic Railway came in for an especial share of haughty condemnation. Everything which he had prophesied regard- ing that road had come bo pass. .The $30,000, - 000 borrowed had never been repaid. It was wicked, vile, corrupt for the Government to take 7,000,000 acres of land cut of the hands of the Syndicate. Mr. Davies forget that it was hardly worth while, at this late day, to shout himself hoarse denouncing a great na- tional work which is now the ner» and wealth of Canada and the admiration of the world.
Mr. Ferguson followed with acalm, but ‘most incisive, criticism of his opponent. He 'gave the whole facts and figures of every case which he touched, showing inthe clearest manner the reckless baselessness of Davis’ charges. Indeed, Mr. Ferguson’s habit of ‘going right to the bottom of things, aud his unbounded information, wake Davies’ wild, , theatrical spread appear im its true iusigniti-
cance.
Mr. Welsh, who plays the buffoon ef the party, wanted to know ‘‘ who would bell the cat?” He said he was the right man, for he loved his country above everything else. Then he gave an instance of his lofty patriot- ism by telling how he managed to trick the country out of the duty on a snit of clothes. He compared the attitude of Canada towards the United States in the fishery matter to a frog facing a bull. Did Mr. Welsh ever hear of the frog who lost his life by his inability to keep his month shut? Some of Mr. W.’s drollery was so devoid of meaning that the audienee laughed at the very want of sense displayed.
Mr. Campbell followed with an earnest, eloquent, lucid defence of the Government measures and policy. He was attentively lis- tened to, an@ received much commendation.
The National Policy and the Farmers.
Sir John Macdonald, in his speech at Ot- tawa before the Workingmen’s Liberal-Con- servative association and La Cercle Lafontaine,
‘ gaid :—
‘I don’t think the prosperity er the pro- gress of the country can be disputed, I shall avail myself of a few figures placed in my hand by a statistician of high rank, and if j could mention his name you would know he is an authority almost infallible on such sub- jects.” Hethen read the following state- ment: ‘*f'wo great facts stand prominently out before the laboring classes of Canada in connection with the fiscal policy of the Lib- eral-Conservative party. Ihe first fact is that the importatiom of articles of food and drink during the Reform period amounted to $169,- 000,080. During the perjod of 1880-85, in which the present tariff has been in operation, the importation of those articles has been only $106,000,000. The average yearly imports under the Cartwright tariff were §42,000,000 agul during the National Policy period $17,- 000,000. If we take into account the increase of population for six years; over a half a mil- lion more people to be fed than in the (rit period, we fini that the difference, in this class of ovr imports, between the two periods is pot less than $30,000,000 annually, a sum which, divided among those of our population engaged in pastoral and farming pursuits, would put inte the kets of each one $50 a year, that would otherwise have gone into the pockets ef farmers outside of Canada.”

Sincie Cortes Two Cxunrs. VOL. 19.—NO. 211. A Strong Opinion.
A correspondent of the Halifax Herald writes :—
*‘A more unscrupulous and illiberal politi- cian than L. A. Wavies does not exist in Carada. To shew how ‘liberal’ the man is, 1 will just note an instance which will inform the liberals of your city in what groove his liberality rans. Last August Mr. Davies con- ceived the idea that the voters’ ists under the new franchise act contained too mapy names. He just wished to have a select few to exer- eise the great privilege of the ballot. To his refined mind it was only proper that the vui- gar herd should be excluded trom the voting booth lest seme blue blood Davies should be contaminated by a plebeian. Mr. Davies drew up his proscrintion list, and asked the revising officer to strike off the names of over one hundred and _thirfy voters, whose names appeared on the list, al- most all of whom were just as much entitled to vote as the great boodler of the Halifax fishery award. The Revising Officer, a for- mer law partner of Mr. Davies, was not bless- ed with a large stock of impartiality, and was so charmed with the arguments of the would- be-Maritime Grit leader, that the latter de- capitated over a hundred voters. Jt was a noticeable fact that nearly all of this numler were the names of Roman Catholic; Irishmen, who had the audacity to have their names registered, So determined was Mr. Davies in his purpose, that he actually wrested the ballet from parties who were his own sup- porters, but who unfortunately bore celtic names, which attracted his highly organized scent.
The most outrageous case offthis kind was that of Michael Trainor, a very respectable young man, an acceuntant in the office of F. T. Newbery & Co. Mr. Trainor had, at the last generai election, voted for Mr. Davies ; but the $15,000 boodler distrusted Mr. Train- or, and he thought it safer to rob him of the privilege, which, if he was a liberal-minded man, he would be pleased to see a young man like Mr. Trainor in a position to enjoy, This same Liberal leader says the Toronto Mai/ is pe the Catholics, and he feels awfully vad about it. He is p to shed tears— if required. Such is the ‘ Maritime Liberal leader !'” >? a ——
The attempt to deprive of their votes our young men Was remembered before—will be acted again.
Farmers Under the N. P.
Everything the farmer purchases has been reduced in price in the past eight years, and not the least marked instance of a lower scale of quotations is that afforded by agricultural implements. Mr. Latimere, the represeutative in Montreal of Messrs. Cossett Bros., of Brockville, one of the largesé manufacturers of agricultural imple- ments in Canada, supplies the following statement of prices of implements before and since the introduction of the National Pelicy : —
1878, 1886. og, a ee 850 to $55 ORME Sd). eseticcs OO 70 Se a eee 15 te $16 13 to $15 Horse Rakes..... 28 to 30 Zito 26
The representative of this firm states that goods are much cheaper now than in 1878 ; that from i879 to 1882 there was an in- crease of business of from 30 to 40 per cent, and that since the latter year a further sub- stantial gain has been made, adding that no American implements are now imported into the country, with rare exceptions, all now purchased being of Canadian manufac- ture. The Massey Manufactering Company of Toronto, through its agents, supplies
the following list of comparative cash prices :— 1878. 1886.

The business in which these manufacturers are engaged has increased manifold since 1878, and is now among the largest of our industries. The protective tariff has given them a home market, and through home competition has led to a redwction in price and an improvement inthe quality of the implements.

——_—__.gpe—-—-
Yrade in Russia. The St. Petersburg correspondent of the New York Times gives a lamentable oo of the "state of commercial tffairs in Russia. He says: *‘Innumerable mills and factories are closed, in-others the pay of the workzaen is reduced, the grain prepared far exportation remains yeh unsold, the ports, acquired by much shedding of bleod, and the railroads, built at such sacrifices, remain inactive. There is scarcely any freight to be moved, though of late there was marked activity on railroads having their terminus at the largest cities. From St. Petershurg aione 30,000 worktagmen have been exported of late at re- duced rates to their country homes by orders of the Government. It would have been un- sightly to have 30,000 able-bodied men die from starvation in the streets of the capital, where they could not obtain work, do what they could ; so from sheer decency’s sake they had to be removed home, to do or die, as best they might, amid their own starving families. The banks are flooded with money and reduce the rates of percentage on current accounts ; yet all people stand in need of money, and cannot obtain money Otherwise than at a ruin- ous rate of interest. All people—-workmen, merchants, offivers, as wellas professional men—complain of lack of money, all strain their utmost forces in order to curtail their expenses.” And atthe same time the Gov- ernment’s deficit, which has prevailed for years, is always igereasing. It is no wouder
that the Czar is notanxious fox war, although, it is said, the ple would Welcouw it as a possible retief from their present mfwery.
