“The Tupper Government have spent but $40,730,253 this year; we shall grad- ually add to the expenditures until they reach $51,542,635 in 1899.

CONSERVATIVE SURPLUSES.

Tar Toronto Globe, which the Patriot quotes at large, makes much of the fact that in the three last years of Mr. Foster’s regime, there were deficits aggregating $5,694,759. But the Globe forgets to re~ mind its readers—and the Patriot is equally forgetful—that these were years of world-wide commercial depression, in which every government dependent upon trade forite revenue,—was minus many miilions of money, The United States Government, if we mistake not, suffered deficite to the extent of hundreds of mil-~ lions of doJars. Nor does the Globe of the Patri make any mention of the lovg series of surpluses obtained under Con~ eervative management. The surplus was in

|ANOTHER LIBERAL SPEAKS.

Tae Eastern Ontario Review has “0 use for Tupper or any of the preeeut Conservative party leaders.” It is still stalwart uponthat point. But neverihe- less it bas heen constrained to vigcrously condemn the Liberale holding office. It Bays :—

* The} present Liberal Government was

elected on a definitely stated plattorm, which met with the views of honest men

in both political parties. They made great prumises. Here are a few of them :—

‘ Tuey promised us a tariff for revenue only. They have not given it to us.

‘ They promised to reduce the expend- ture of the Government by several millions of dollars. They have increased it by many millions.

* Ti ey promieed to enormously reduce the national debt. They have enor mous- ly increased it.

‘ They promised to clean this country of corrapt practices in elections. They have not done 60, but in many cases have brought disgrace upon the party whose name they bear.

‘ They promised to stop the practice of { appointiog mem bere of Parliament to posi-

& 00.. LID

tions inthe Government. They have fol- lowed this same practice in a most shame- ful manner.

‘ They promised to bring railway core poraticns to their proper place and to nave full control over them. They have given millions of dollars for wildcat rail. way schemes and are practically at the mercy of the great railway corporations.

‘yThese are only afew promises, but enough to show thatthe Goverament, as it is today, bay played false with the men who puttbem where they are.

* No party ever started out with better prospects or had a better chance to carry Out its promisesthao the Liberal party did in 1896,

‘They had a big majority in the House and the country was On the eve of the brightest commercial period in its bietory.

«; Tbe leaders appeared to go mad with delight upon assuming Office and forgot ers tirely the professed principles upon which they were elected. The men who elected them bave rot forgotten those principles and they still stand on (hose principles,

‘No wonder the Gleaner or any other honest Liberal paper or supporter would feel disgusted and digsppointed with the failure of their leaders to act honestly as they were elected and expected todo. The Liberal party today is honest, as it ever was, and will not stand dishonesty in its leaders.

‘ The Review, a+ an independent Liberal paper, has repeatedly protested against the mistakes of tte leaders. We do so again and in this we are not alone in this constituency.

‘ During the past month ecores of old time Liberals here have stated positively thai they would use neither their infiu- ence nor their votes to retarn their party to power with its present false leaders.

‘One leading Liberal went so far aa to state that he would certainly vote against the party at the first opportenity.’

This istbe way the real Liberals of Ontario are writing and talking. Honest and indepeadent Liberal newspapars and honest and independent Liberal men everywhere, are therougly diegusted with the Government.
