MR LAURIER’S CONTRADICTIONS,
SnortLy before the last general elec- tioa Mr. Laurier said at Toronto:
“Every great reform has cost the Re “formers years of labor, and those years “of labor I am prepared to give, and “though the democrats may be defeated “in the United States, and though Cana- “dians may grow faint-bearted in Canada, “the Liberal party, 0 long ae I have any “thing to do with it, [ will remain true to ‘the cause of Unrestricted Reciprocity, “until that cause is successful. I will not “expect to win in » day, but I am prepar- “ed to rewain iv the cool shades of oppo- “gition until the cat s+ has triumphed.”
At Winnipeg last y-ar Mr. Laurier said that
“We shall give you fice trade, and al “though it will bea hard fight, we shall “not give in one inch or retrace one step “until we have resched the goal, and that “yoal is the same policy of Free Trade as “exists in England to-day.”
Again, Mr. Laurier said, in the course ef a sperch delivered in the Eastern Town-
sh ps: “We will tax for revenue, but not 4 “cent for protection! When we are in
“power we will relieve the people of pro- “tection, which is a fraud, a delusion and “sg robbery. Sr, our policy is freedom of “.rade such as exists in England.’
But now the idea of “ Free Trade as it is in England” is repelled by Mr. Laurier and his lieutenants, and it is said by them that we cannot possibly remove *‘ every vestige of Protection.”
Again, on the 12th of April last, Mr. Laurier went down to Valleyfield :—
“We want atreaty of reciprocty with “the United States. The Conservatives “say it would be loyal to England.”
But,—
“We will get atreaty with the United “States, and if England objects we wil! “consider her objections. Let Lord Salis- “bury take care of the interests cf Eng- “land; we will take care of the interests of “Canada.”
Commenting upon thes: and other cor- tradictions, the Mail aad Empire remarks that,—
“The gentleman who has told us that he is for free trade (see Winnipeg speech) for better protection of the industries through the redactioa of duties on raw material (see Montreal speech) for unre— stricted reciprocity, discrimination against England, and a quarrel with Lord Salis- bury (see Valleyfield speech) concluded his Quebec deliverance by telling the peo- ple that preferential trade with England would be excellent for them, seeing that under it ‘Quebec would get back its pris- tine glory.’ How is Mr. Laurier going to have free trade concurrently with protec- tion, and unrestricted reciprocity concur rently with preferential trade ? The Leader is either altogether unable to comprehend fiscal matters, or he is playing fast and loose with the people.
There is neither consistency or rele- vancy in the Liberal Leader’s speeches or actions. He is uncertain anl twisty, and net a man to be trusted by the people,
——- ee —___ THE PEOPLE NOT ANXIOUS.
Tae people of Canada have had such a taste of “ direct taxation” under the Lib- eral provincial governments, that they are not anxious to run the risk of direct tax- ation under the Dominion Government. In England, where they have Free Trade, there is an income tax of eight pence upon every pound, and there are, besides, exactions in the shape of stamp duties and taxes upon land and other property. How would the people of Canada |'ke to withstand the free competition of the protected far- mers and manufacturers of the United States, and, at the same time, submit to direct taxation after the manner of taxing in Great Britain ? Is it not qute enough to have to bear direct taxes in erdet that the borrowings ef Mr. Peters may be repaid. We don’t want Free Trade as it is in England, accompanied by direct taxation as in England. Nor do we desire that Freer Trade which wil] upset the conditions of our thriving com- merce and render direct taxation neces- Peary.

THE DAILY E

MEETING AT NORTH RIVER,
Mr Davies Exaggerates and Misr epreseats— |
Fffective Speeches by Dr Jenkins ard {
Mr W 5S Stewart, QC,
The meeting held last night at North | River was a most encouraging one for Dr. Jenkins. The spacious hal) was comfort: | ably filled by a large and intelligent audi: | ence of farmera, who gave a good hearing | to the different speakers.
Mr. Davies was first called upon and it was gui.e evident that his task was an uphill one. For an hour and three quarters be rehashed the old and eft repeated story | deneuncing protection as a fraud and a robberv, extolling free trade and recipro city with the Uaited States. His utterances y Te more than trually extravagant and wile of the truth, but he excelled his pre- vious reputation for mi-reprerentation ip his treatment of the Man.toba school | question. Everything he said about this | question was & revers.on of the facts.
Dr. Jenkins replied in a quiet but effective manner, showing how the inter- ests of the Province have been injared by sending sueh representatives as Mr. Day- ies to Ottawa to frustrate all the good intentions of the Government towards the Province. He also dwelt upon the dairy and cheese industries, and the intentions of the Government to promote tt creased trade in farm pro’ucts with the Mother Country. The Do tor’s remarks were attentively listened to, and fell upon a sympathetic audience.
Hon. D. Farqubarson made a very short It was plainly evident that the
speech. : In whal
audience took little or no interest he said, as it, no doubt, reinembered that he, when in Upposition, although the most blatant denouncer of deficits, is a leading member of the Government that is driving our Provines headlong into debt and ruin.
Mr. W. S. Stewart made an energetic re- ply which wis listened to with the keenes @ tention, and at its conclu: n was warm- ly applauded, He shertly referred to the Iceil Government’s record in regard to taxation, ext'avazgance and boodling, contrasting it with the satisfac- tory condition of the federa! finances. He then dwelt upon the many misrepresenta- tions, perversions and inaccuracies in the
speech of Mr. Davies, pointing out that it wasthe present Government at Ottawa that removed the duties on tea, sugar aod
ether articles largely used by the farming community, and that although Mr. Davies denounced manufactures as robbers and thieves at North River he at Charlotte- town declared that the Liberal party did not intend to adopt a policy to destroy in- dustries. Mr. Stewart’s answer to Mr. Davies on the Manitoba school question was complete and effectual.
Atthe conclusion the large number of officials of the Local Government pre- sent from Charlottetown endeavored to getup a cheer for Mr. Davies, but it was feebly responded to, and fell very flat.
North River will give a good account of itself on election day.
MEETING AT ELDON,
No Fizsle There—Able Speeches by the Yopular Candidate and Our Energetic Member of the Cabinet.
The poiitical meeting called for Tuesday night iu Eldon Hal! was a decided success. Notwithstand m+: the busy season and some- what unpromising state of the weather, the hall was filled by an attentive audience wio manifested, in an unmistakable manner, their Learty spproval of the Liberal-Con servative policy. The meeting was called to order by appointing Capt. R. McKenze to the chair.
A. MARTIN, BSQ.,
the popular candidate for East Queen’s, was the tirst speaker. After afew pre- liminary remarks, he took up that ques— tion which is so important to the elector+ in the southern part of this riding, vie., the proposed branch railway, and gave a full and detailed account of this questioa from the beginning of the agitation down to the present time. Heexposed in a mosi complete manner the insincerity an: shuffling which our grit representative< practised upon this question. He referred to the railway meeting held at Caledonis in 1890, at whch beth Don. Senatcr Fer- gusea and Mr. Davies were present. At that meeting Mr. Davies pledged bimsel: and his colleague, if elected, to advocate a railway to Belfast, as did also Mr. Fergu- 200. Bat how different ba
been the subs+ quent actions ofthe two men. The one upon whose brow the people placed the laurels of vie- tory and accepted as their champion t
fight their battles, while he wore his hon- ors with an easy grace, troubled aot him
self with fulfilling the fpledge he #0 sol- emniy gave until! four jong years had
passed, and then only asked a question (a
a time when the House was discussing » resolution introduced by the ;Hon. David Mills) of which he had given no previous notice in the proper way of baving |} s question put on the order book, thus showing his utter indifference to this ques- tion, 80 important to the interests of his constituents. Not so with Mr. Ferguson
Although rejected by the people, he ye
remembered his pledge when called te the Senate of Canada, and it was his brilliant and lucid presentatioa of our claims in that chamber that first attracted the Gov- ernment to the justice of our claims and
inspired ue with the belief that, with such in able champion, the tims hal arrived to agitate and press for those rigkts which had been so long denied us. Mr. Martin stated that it was ow ng to the unwar- ranted eni disgraceful obstruction of the Opposition during the la-t session that the grant for this brancn hai not been paesed. They had the Government by the throat. Mr. Laurier eaid which item should pass and which should not. Mr. Davies should have told his leader, “There is one item there grant- ing to my little province down by the sea, a sum to build some branch lines to which she is justly entitled —allow them to pass.” But, instead, he has boast- ed in the Market Hall that “they stopped the railway subsidies.” Not only that— but he is throwing cold water on the pro- ject by trying to make it appear that by bui'ding a few branch lines in this Provy- ince the Government are undertaxing a stupendous enterprise—something on a par with the C. P.R.,orI.C. BR. Mr. Martin pointed out that while they allowed the militia vote to paes, they refused to pass the railway vote,~showing where they stand upon the question. He next referred tothe hypocritical regard which the Grits have always professed for the farmers. From the Knight of Blue Ruin down, the burdea of their song has been the wretched condition of the farmer. Yet when the Government asked for a vote of $60,600 toestablixh a trade ir chilled meats with Great Britain, and subsidize a fast Atlantic service which would carry the farmers products quicker and in good con- dition, those whilom lovers, whore crocodile tears have fallen so profusely for the poor over-taxed farmers, actually re- fused to allow this vote to pass. Mr. Martin next took up the trade question, and after humorously alluding to the different facta with which
the Liberals appeared before the people at
every election said that after going all
is not @ blind partizan of the Qpposition will, we feel sure, believe. \

a
McKenzie Tariff. He dweit at some length npon the importance of the maritime markets and the necessity that existed to foster the coal and iron industries. Mr. Martin was heartily cheered at the cor- clusion of his very able speech.
Hon. Senator Ferguson was the next speaker. In opening he referred to the | complimentary remarks in which Mr. Martin had referred to him and said that he thought he could, without any egotism on his part, claim some credit fur having done something for his native province since he was a member of the senate and more particularly since he was a member of the Privy Council of Canada. Owing to the fullness of Mr. Martin’s remarks on the proposed branch line he spoke brefly on this subject. He showed clearly what little sympathy and this préject had received from our reprerent- at ves. Mr. Welsh had placed himself on record as supporting a branch from
Supper
But in 1895, when Mr. Austin McDonald introduced a resolution to build a branch from Southport to Murray Harbor Mr. Welsh rose and said that the support he bal given the other branch he would transfer to this one saying that * possibly inthe end it might pay the people at large,” a very vague and doubtful support v say the leat.
Mr Fergu-ou wished to imp-e-s his hear- ‘rs with one very important plank of
the Liberal plaiform, apd it was this: Vir. Peters, after assuring the people that he hoped the day cf taxation was far
ff, brought in his tax bl, and now, fiod ing thet inenfficient, tells the people that when the Liberals come into power he will get an increased subsidy and wipe out all thisdebt he has contracted. The Liberal policy is to gire the money to the Local Government—which Mr. Peters knows so well how to spend or to wa tc—
instead of buildieg usefu! and necessary public works. If Mr. Peters gets the money we can whistle for our railroad. He next referred to a pamphlet which the Grits are circulating broadca-t through- @ut the country, entitled “Conservative Scandals.” He did not know who the author was; but judging from the mary trong adjectives so generously ecattered through it, he thought he could make a preity good guess. Whoever the aucbor wae, he thought he might be well calied the “apestle of dirt.” He refuted some of its shameful sianders, and said that if $38,000,000 could be passed through the hands of such a great num- ber of officials wXhout one dollar going wrong than the ministers would need to be infallable, would need to be angels, not
men. As the Liberals bad their boodlers a0 the Conservatives had some too, with thie difference that the Liberais had more of them and alwayeexalted them. The
Conservatives, on the contrary, exhanst every resource to punish them and cast them out of the party,—as witness see Sir John Thompson moving that McGreevy be expelled from Parliament. Mercier, one of the most pronounced boodlers of the age, was never repudiated by Mr Laurier who now posesas the apostle of purity. On the contrary, he was, np to his dea.l, his confidant and frien!. So highly dothe Liberals cherish the Premier's nanie that they have in Montreal a Mer- cier Ciub and they are now eoliciting sub— scriptions to erect a moniment to his memory. Pacaud is the editor of hisorgan, his right hand men are Tarte, Pref uti ne and the notorious Jimmy McShane. Mr. Ferzveon reviewed the Government’s position on the school caze at length, showing that it was not a question of which was the better system of schools for Manitoba, but purely a question as to whether the constitution of this country will be upheld. He took up the trade question and quoted from former speeches of prominent Liberals, and compared them with their speeches of to-day, all of which goes to show that they are fast
falling into line under the banner of — protection. Mr. Ferguson, al- though suffering from a severe
cold, concluded a very argumentative and convincing epeech amid much enthusiasm, expressing the strong belief that on the 23rd of June the people of Canada sil! again entrust the management of their affairs tothe men who built their railroads, extended the boundaries of their country, and gave ita place anda name among the nat‘ons of the world.
After giving three cheers for Senator Ferguson, 4. Martin, Esq., and the branch railways, the mee ing quietly dispersed.
