ACCIDENT AVEIITED--What might

have been a serious accident occurifud during the early hours of Monday morning at the residence of Mr. Daniel Blrt, Mt. Stewart. As his son was passing a window a load of shot hit tho house, some of them striking the window. It appears that one of the sportsmen was taking ii casual early shot. and in the excitement failed to observe that the house was within range. This should be a grave warn- ing to all who handle a gun within the village limits, as Mr. Bii‘t will not tol- erate a. repetition ot this offence.-1.

SERIOUS ACCIDENT.-Yesterday

morning Mr Malcolm McDonald. of Niue Mile Creek met with a serious accident. He was working in the harvest field with the binder. The horses were somewhat difficult to manage and he was. leading them by tho heads. He had got them quieted down when he let go and lu leaving them he accidentally fell, and was struck by thc sharp point oi' the bind- er. He was also struck by- the reel, and trown over the -knife. Ono oii.hi_s feet got caught, and, the guard pene- trated the ankle bono, whilst thc knife severely gushed thc flesh. liut for his presence ol' mind in lifting his other foot out ol' the wily he would have been more severely. injured. lt is feared that the ankle is broken.

A frightful charge it is. Now. I am

going to take you into my confidence. _Of course, when a. man who was Governor was bound in honour to observe certain things as confidential and secret. when he discloses these things and makes a ,personal attack he has departed from the principle of common decency and good breeding and is dishonoured. The first year the Governor was in power the Governor- General, the King's representative, a member of the Royal Family, honour- ed this province with a visit; and when the Governor-General comes his proper home is Governuieiit House, and when he goes there his standard supersedes all others. I was desirous that we should do our duty, that we should act as a civilised community should act towards the Representative of our King. and I, with two other members of the Government, waited upon the Governor and trie_d to induce him to extend full and sufficient hos- pitality to the Governor-General and his party. I consulted with the late David Laird, who had been Lieut,~ Governor of a North West Province when prohibition was in force and when the P,\-incess Louise paid that ‘province a visit. He said that the standard and the custoins of the Gov,ernor-General should prevail. Wine was served in Government llousc there because it was the only thing precedent would 'justll`y. I told the Governor that for»his direction and guiilalice, because Mr Laird was 'just as good a temperancc man as Mr Rogers ever was-(cheers)-and did his duty as wcll as Mi' Rogers cvor did. I know Mr Laird tried to get lvlr Rogers to not decently in t/c matter. llc entertained tho Governor- Gcncral in a uuiunor that reflected considerable discredit on himself and the province. Last year, when tho Dominion Royal (fommissiou, appoint- od hy tho British Crown, was here comprising some of the most distin- guished and illustrious men in the realm, on the important work of taking stock of the Empire and enquiring ilito thc resources of the liomiuion. that man shlrkcd his M1010 duty. Those gentlemen never cutcred Gov- ernment 1-louse grounds. because the doors of Government llousc were practically shut in their faces; and the province, to save its face, as we had to do on many occasions. entertained those men. In the meetings through- out thc country wc have heard it Cliargeil nf-mlnst us, “You are extra- vugant becaiisc you did these things." We had to tnkc the nlouey of thc pro- vlucc to ciitcrlaiii thoso illlmtrlotis men _and iiotbc nsliaiucd before the world, siinplyvbccnui-_ic the man whose solo "duty il. was _to extend befitting liospltality lo 'tlicin refused to riso to thc dignity and 'importance of his nilicc., I would_ not have mentioned these things, except for tho fact that wo are hold 1ip.a`iid this iuoucy is charged against us-money we had to spendfor the sake of decency.

say it was a black and unfortunate day in the Island's history when a man in silcli it position, who would utterly fail to do his duty to the province. 'and would take the income he received and work for himself instead _of the country. should be brought out of the obscurity to which he had retired and be placed to the head of a party. When we met four years ago it was a splendid assembly. and at the last election the party lines were broken; and l want to ask you. is there any man here who broke his party lines on that occasion and came to the sup- port oi’ the Government who regrets what he did? Did we make any promise to you then which we have not amply fulfilled? I don’t think there is one who can say he regrets the act he did. There is more reason now for breaking party lines than there were then. If ever there was a time in the lslaud’s history when a man ,should put aside all petty things and strive to do the'hlgher duty that dovolves upon men to serve the Empire iii this great war. that time is now: Are you going to put at the head of the pro- vince a man who so stood with the military authorities here that his aide- de~eanip resigned and not a single _inlhtary _ man' would take' his place? (Clieers.) A1 man who gave such a gross offence to a imtlltnry officer riding on the train just after the war had broken out that that officer told inc he had never dreamed that the iinau he was talking to was the Gov- crnor of the province, and he said he was ready to rcbuko him for his llngrautly disloyal iittorances. This `~= the man that it is proposed to place ft the forefront of the province to curry ti loyal banner. I don‘t think we have come to such :l pitch as that, :nd the loyal men of the city and province will be slow to put at tho forefront, in cliargc of the negotiations rcgardiiig the wur. one whose rccorii is as black as my hat. I will tell you that conliiitlotisly uilice the war broke oilt the Government has been in intimate rolntious with tho Military and Naval Dcnartineiit and with the Ilrltish War Ofllcc in dealing with ull uuitters according to the full limit of our power. Every possibility of dnugcr which might beset us wus carefully considered, and plans taken as to what our duty ls, not only in strength- ening the fighting arm of Britain. and her Allies, hilt how we shall fake care of our o\vn people. the widows and orphans :uui dependents of our brave soldiers who :irc going to thc front. Are you going to put into power il man with such a record that no patriotic meeting in the province would cvor think of putting him in thc chair?

The I‘remic|° then pointed out that

not another l"odcral Government hail cvcr douo as much for l‘i'iuoo l~}dwnril island an the liordcn Govcruuicut and ttppealcd to thc electors to support. a local Government in sympathy with the Great Dominion Administration. Ilo pointed out the enormous benefits which had accrued to the .province as a result. of the reformation cllected in the telcgrnph mid telephone system.

lu concluding nn olotluont address,

thc Prcnilcr said: "We are only on tho ninrgtu of the possibilities of tho porviuize. We have seen it brought from the darkest pessimism up to brilliant- optimism, and the people are realising more and more the almost unlimited prospects that llc before us.” , I

The Premier resumed his Beat amid

trememlouii and prolonged apmause.

Mr A. B. win-norton followed Prehi-

ler Mathieson and at the-_outset dia- soclated himself from the well-kliowu views of Mr Benjamin Rogers on questions of Imperlallsni and Patriot- ism. He said they must not forget that General Bothn fought the British 15 years ago and was now mainly rcsponsiblefor driving the Germans from South Africa. He also recalled that Mr Lloyd George was ejected from a meeting in Manchester for pro- Boer sympathies and was to~day one of the foremost Ministers in the Gov- iernment which was carrying on the war against Germany. Mr Rogers ;may have expressed the sentiments attributed to him before- the present war, but so far as he could learn from conversations with him, he considered the present a righteous war, which Britain was justified in entering upon. Mr Warburton proceeded to discuss the sttbsidy question and the represen- tation questlon, on both of which _his views coincided' `tvith` ‘those of “Nlr .Duffy. Ile discussed at spmelangili Iioniiulon politics, and said. while it was quite true the» Liberals at pro- vlous provincial elections used to argue that the local Government should be on the same side as. thc Ottawa Government they hoped in thc near future that the 0ttawd`,Qoverii- ment would hc Liberal and it would bc well for the provincial Goverumoiit to cliaugc over in anticipation.

Mr Warburton was corrected .hy

Premier Mathicson in several or his 'statements and had to admitthat tho facts were such as subuittted by tho Premier.

Mr Duffy then rose and ,asked-pen

mission to reply to certain statements of Premier Muthlcson. Permission was readily granted. Ile attempted some corrections oil questions of fact. and I’remier Miltliicson with crushing effect replied to him.

The meeting concluded- with tho

National Aiitliem, after which thrco rousing cheers were given for Premier hlatliicsoii and three for the Govern- ment candidates.
