WILL THEY VOTE AS THEY SAID?
Previors to the last general election the Liberals stated that the Conservatives were wildly extravagant. We maintained that while they provided suffisiently for the public service, tbey could not greatly reduce expenditures io view ofthe devel- opment and expansion of the country Farmers in this Province—some of them in East Prince,—believing what the Liber- als said, assured us, then, that if the L:ber- als did not make the heavy reductions in by Sir Wilfrid Laurier, they would at the next election vote the Liberals down. The Liberals have
