lu the first place you are my oysters, aud you exist for my nourishment and comfort

that you were created for the purpo

pur]

being a convenience to me is so clearly pr

by our past relationship and is so pateut a fac’, that I do not think any of you » ill have the hardihood to deny it

lo me that relationship is extremely pleas-

aut; and I have no desire that it should be dis- tu bed. i will now proceed to me w that I was

tended by nature to — nt the var opinions aad principles of every man c ynstituency,

In order to prove this I will go back toa the beginning of my political career.

Mauy of you will recollect that I first in- troduced myself to your notice as the editor of a religious ne wepaper.

ln the columns of that paper I proved c clusively that the Pope was Antichrist an a the »an of sin.

I also showed clearly that reli gious e ducation

was only a device of the Scarlet uly to win unwary on nta to her outhee ace.

On th ground Melaim to represent many Protestaxts.

My claim to represent Catholics is par

good, as I introduced a section into the )

west Act, providing for the reli gious edu ati a of the present and future inhabitants of that great country.

You will remember that I made unsuccessful attempts ] succeeded,

I was first elect

ReVoral to represent you.

L by anti-railway men oppose and stop the building of a railway

After [ was eile ected, [| becan 1€ Very desirous of representing the Rai iway Paster So 1 not only built the portion of railway under con- tract, but I added fifty additional mi‘es.

The trick was cleveily and neatly done; but it was ** small potatoes” to what followed.

My next feat was one which has afforded me infiaite eajoymeut ever since I perform xi it. I have already made nearly $100,000 by it. and I expect to make a great deal more out of it yet,if you will help me—which, of courss, you will,

jl call it The Great Laird Someérsault and | Shufile, because I am the only man who |

Daubl has ever successfully performed it. A miser able fellow, called Castlere agh tried it i Ireland ; but he bungled it in such aw that his memory is execrated ever since. Bi t I did the thing so cleverly thet I am courted and fawved upen by all sort: and conditions ef men ever since.

I dare say the most of you recollect how it was done ; but it will do you no harm to} have your memory refreshed.

For many years I was the hope and oe . of the anti-Confederate Party ; and m pious people believed that I was raise. i up bs Providence to ward off that impending evi ‘4

But the s I achieved in represent railway oot anti: railway principles, led me to consider whether [ could not = a coufed- erate as wellas an anti-confedera I : sulted with a few of my friends on ths es bj jen tt, and the arguments were of so soli nature that | could no loager resist them. fact so clear aad cony ‘ineing yr was the a. ic that I determined to become a confederate at | any p rice,

So strong was the power of my n lew faith, | = at I detied all the powers of darkness, and tarted for Ottawa in the middle of pi sht t

pagetiabe Ter ns of Union { became s ardent a confederate that I gave aw: ay the island’s right toa share of the Fishery Award,

and was very anxious that the Island should |

receive $26,000 a year less than we receive at present. If any of you should doubt thisr,read my speeches delivered after I returned from Ottawa,

One more illustration of the two-sidedness of my political character, and I am done. Kecoaom sts I can faithtuily they wili recollect with pride ‘the efforts I made to save the peoples money when the Government of which I was a member, ordered that the gas lamp in front of the Charlottetown Post Office should be extin- guished.

Oa the other hand, if there are any of you

who like to see the public money spent freely

on worthy objects, 1 can point them to my

bill of about $!,600 for travelling expenses |

from Battleford to Charlottetown.

I am a Free Trader tection can safely elected.

As you are aware, I can turn a sharper | corner than that betw een Protection and Free Trade at a moment's notice.
