four hundred Liberal-Conserv ative electors |

present. On hearing that Premier Sulli-' van would speak, the Grits were drummed | up from all parts of the district, to the; number of about two hundred, to make a row and break up the meeting. terest of peace, the Conservatives met at Morrow's Hal! instead of at the Court House, leaving the Grits out inthe rain

howling and swearing in their disappointed |

rage, making the air hideous with their yells. The Conservative meeting was the

most enthusiastic ever held here. A large number of former Grits were present, who loudly cheered the different speakers as they eloquently and clearly expounded the policy of the Government, nailing most effeetively every lie disemminated through-

Alluding to the vicious and lying insinuations of the disreputable : Montreal Post, and which have been copied “into the Halifax Chronicle, that he hated ‘the Irish and was against Home Rule, Sir Charles, in the most convincing manner, a that i if there Was one man in public life in the Dominion who had the right to el aiin the respect of Catholics of all national- ities, that man was himself.
