I can say the same with regard to the line from Emerald to Stauley. That line would pass through a fine section of country, and wou'd receive a large arnount of focal support. I may say there are other parts of Prince Eiward Island equally is want of branch lines.

So we see that Mr. Yeo was able, ina few minutes, to direct attention to no less than five branch lines of railway in this province, and if he had thought a

little longer be might, perhaps, have spoken of others, including the Elmira branch and the branch Wiltshire to Crapand. fergot the latter goes to show that he was not fully alive tothe wants and the de- mands of his own constituents. But the point to be emphasized is that Mr. John Yeo ison record as having contended in Parliament for no five branch lines of railway! Unfortunate ly for Mr. Yeo, his leader, the Maritime leader of the Liberals, hae put foot dows in such a way as to crush out the hope that any of these lines, except the Belfast-Murray Harbor branch, be undertaken by the Liberal party. Speaking in the House of Commona almost immed- iately afier Mr. Yeo, and immediately | after the Minister of Railways, Mr. Davies said ;

“ The idea of proposing a scheme for | eight or ten (there were but seven) branch | railways! Why it reduces the whole thing te a farce.”

Again in the Market Hall on the 30th of April Mr. Davies referred to the Govern-

ment’s proposition and said :

“Are these railway propositions bona fide 7? Arethey honest? Do you think they ever intended to build 127 miles of railway for this Island. if they had pro- posed building one branch line, I might have had some confidence in them; or if they had proposed building two branch lines i might still think they were sincere; Lut when they proposed building seven branch railways it is plainly to be seen that it was a sham and not genuine” !

Of course, Mr. Yeo’s contention for five FISHING TACKLE—JOHNSON branch lines was genuine, forhe isaLib & JOMNSUN,

The Conservative policy may not be right, but there is no doubt about two things : Firat, it is infinitely more resolute in favor of the Manitoba minority than anything the Liberals have suggested; secondly, it is plain and definite, whereas the Liberals | have no policy at all except the policy of evasion.

Greatest Demonstration Ever See in Montreal.

The Prime Minister Defies His Traducer s to Prove That He Ever Appealed to Religious or National Prejudices.

Orrawa, May 16.

Of all the grand demonstrations ever wit- né-ssed ip Montreal that ‘tendered to Sir Charles Tupper, Bart., last might was the greatest. ‘The (orchlight procession was a magnificent display, and some seven thou- sani people were in line to escort the Prime Minister from the Liberal-Conser- yative club room to Sohmer Park, where the meeting was held

t is estimated that twenty thousand people were in and around the build ng.

Senator Villeneuve presided, and on the platform were the Premier, Hon. Messrs. Angers, Taillon, Desjardins, Sir A. P. Carou and over 5,000 of the leading Con- servatives of Montreal and the province of Quebec. Althoagh Sir Charles looked in splendid form and his voice was good, there were many thousands who could not hear him. But this mattered not. They saw the Cumberland war horse and cheer- ed themselves hoarse in his honor.

Sir Charles invited the business men of the metropolis to Windsor Hall on Satur- day evening, where they could lis‘en to him with greater comfort than at this tremendous meeting. He said that al- though he realized the vastness of Mont- real, vet he never believed it possible for such a body of men to be got together at a p litical assembly.

The Prime Minister repeated what he had said at Winnipeg, and amid thunder ing cheers defied Mr. Laurier or any man to show that he bai ever, during forty years of bis political Jife, anpealed to re- ligious or national prejudices.

He declared that this was the prelude of the victory which was sure to come to the Liberal Conservative party on the 23rd of June next,

Speeches were also delivered by Messrs. Angers, Taillon and Desjardins.
