Six,—For what purpose is the franchise in this coumtry after this,—when the majority who voted on the probibition question are being ignored as if they had been 60 many helpiess old women who hed turned out to vote ?
Perhaps the people of this Dominion may see what they have done for their , coantry by fostering iniquity ia high places,— till now it is the greatest fak irs who rule from one end of this great
country to the other, or from P. &, fieland to Klonéike, till we have become a re~ proach and bye-word before the civilized nations ofthe earth today, God requ res righteoueness in the rulers of nations to-
day as much as he did thousands of years ago, and if the pecple of this = country expect to profper
by exelting anv but righteous men to rule ; they willsurely be disappointed as they are at this time. The cause of this humiliation is not far to eeek; for those who have eyes to see. Sampson placed confidence in Delilab, and was shorn of his strength acd delivered into the hands of bis euemier, to have bis eyes put out, that he might be their sport. You men of Canada have done just as foolishly. But don’t submit. Samson, with bis eyes out crushed his enemies, and eo may you if you do what is rigtt. In God’s name, strike for your liberty before it is too late. The lamb is already in the lion’s mouth. | Who will deliver ii? Our country is in davger—the foe is making desolate homes end our men are treated as womeo. Where is our safety, now, fromthe des troyer? God l.ves and sees this struggle, and now men of Canada if ever you were sincere in your lives band together now aod crush this foe. Put away every ac- cursed thiog from you, that you may gain the victory over the enemies of our coun- try. You will find that this is ne time to
' delly when wickedness has become insol-
eut and is pot afraid to show iteelf openly.
It is the hard-earned money of the peo- ple that goes to support those who by treachery get into power to rob the country of its rghts, and the birth-right privileges of its people.
We have indeeda great country, rich in all that should makea free people proe- perous and happy if properly governed,
}and we believe that honest men can be
found who are capatle of governing in righteousness, Then why is it thet they are overlooked and the biggest frands elected to office ? I for one did not exnect anything much better from = W)/frid Laurier,—for yet we don’t get berries thistles. Those trained in a despotic school are generaily d:<spots when they are given power torule. Pro-~ hibitienists taro them ont, root and brencb, if you are going in to win, for you see vow that is the one province, which is going to set its feet on your necks and forever bind this our corntry down to an eeccursed siavery far worse than the one that caused civil war ia the United States a few years ago.
