On Saturday evening Jast the Hon. Mr. Ferguson and Richard Hunt, E-q., were greeted by one of the most enthusiastic meetings which ever packed the Hall at

Association, cecupied the chair. The Hall was tastefully decorated with mottoes, | such as “ Sir Charles Tupper, our L«ad- er, “Welcome to Senator Ferguson,” and “ Branch Railways.”

Richard Hunt, Esq., the popular Cun- servative candidate, was the first speaker, aud was received withcheers. In a neat} and coscise speech he discussed the poli cies of both parties. He condemned the double attitude of the Liberals on the Trade and Manitoba Schools questions. He explained to the meeting the ciforts he had successfuliy made to obtain the inclu sion cf Crapaud in the branch railway policy of the Liberal-Conservative Govern- ment, and commended the action of that government in regard to the dairy indus-

the plan cf building seven branches, including the Crapaud one. Whereupon Mr. Davies sprang to his feet and declared that the including so many branches was intended to kill the Belfast one. Mr. Ferguson said that Mr. Davies’ declaration wae particularly severe on Mr. Yeo, Mr. Davies was an adept at turning a eharp corner and did not cyre who he trampled on in order to gain bis party purpose, He advi ed the electors to watch how Messrs Davies and Yeo would recencile their con- tradictiona in Parliament regarding branch Railways, and thought the people of Crapaud had a right to an explanation from Mr. Yeoastowlhy be did not say a word for Crapaud when he was advocat-

Mr. Ferguson distinct'y stated that it was the settled pol'cy of the Government to build the seven branch railways, be- ginning with the Belfast and Elmira ones. He deseribed the statemeuts that the Gov- ernment could, if they chose, have passed the railway appropriation at the last ees- sion a8 audacious in the extreme, and in open defiance of truh. Everyone knew that the main estimates for 1896-7 must ave precedence over the supplementary ones for the samme year. The former were introduced ou the 24th of January and the House went into committee on the 3lat of the same month, passing one small item. Owing to the persistent obstruction of Mr. Davies and his friends the Hense was never allowed to go into committee again on them. The main estimates had to be disposed of before the supp'ementary esti- mates for 1896-7 could be allowed, It was in the latter estimates that the sum cf $250,060 towards the Belfast and Elmiva branches was placed. That item cculd not be put in the supplementary estimates for the current year, because in that case the vote would lapse on the let of July, before even surveys could be completed. Mr. Fergu on read Mr. Haggart’s letter to timself, which he declared to contain the policy of the Government, and pledged himself that if tbat letter were not made good he would nct remaina member of the Government. Amidst the cheers of the meeting Mr. Ferguson denounced the

applause with which received.

At the conclusion of Mr. Hunt’s speech. Oliver B. Wadman, E+q., presented the Hon. Mr. Ferguson with the following address ;—

To Hon, Senator Ferguson, P. C.

Oa this the occasion of your first visit to this section of the Province since your promotion to aseat inthe Cabinet, the Liberal-Conservatives of Crapaud much pleasure in extending to you a cor dial and hearty welcome, and we warim!y congratulate vou on the distinguished place you occupy in the councils of your country. We have every confidence thai the present government, led by that able, progre-sive, and experienced statesman, Sir Charles Tupper, Bart , wil) dea] fairly ani justly with every portion of the De- minion, and continue to foster and encour- age the var ous industries that tend to the development, growth and prosperity of this Canada of ours. We have abundant proof of the practical interest the govern- ment takes in all classes of its citizens ty ithe aid and encouragement it has given our farmers in the establishment of butter and cheese factories throughout the Islani. Here inthe settlement of Cra- paud we can boast of having a butter fac- tory as well asa chesse factory, both of which are doing a satisfactory and rapidly increasing business; while our sister set- tlement of Tryon also operates a successful butter factory, all as a direct result of the practical aid and as<istance of the govern- ment, through their able Dairy Commie sioner, Prof. Robertson, and his assistant, Mr. Dillon.

Since your appointment to the Senate we have watched with intere-t.and could not but

the qnestion alive as an issue in the Fed- eral elections. He proved, on the author- ity of Hon. David Mills, that the govern- ment was compelled by the decision of the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council, not only to hear that appeal but also to grant relief. It was nota question whe- ther one set of schools or another were better, but simply the carrying out of a solemn ccntract. It was evident that Catholics and Protestants were equally convinced of the coundnese of Mr. Fergu- son’s arguments. After discussing the trade question andthe grit campaign of alauder, Mr. Ferguson sat down amidst sustained applause.

We feel that your able advocacy of the Island’s claims prepared the Government for the favorable consideration cf the memorial of the Liberal-Conservative representative3 ind other prominent gentle men of the Island for increased railway facilities, which measure was generously responded to by the Government placing in the supplementary estimates the sum of

Whileheartily app-oving of the fa'r,nan- ly and consistent course pursued by the Government on the Mahitoba school ques- tion in giving the. minority a moderate measure of redress, thus keeping the plighted faith of the Dominion inviolate and upholding the constitution, we muat condemn the tactics of the Liberal party On this question, in first raising the ques- tion in Manitoba, thrusting it on the Dom- inion Government for settlement and then by obstruction preventing the Govern- ment from settling it in a fair, just manner, according to the constitution, thus delib- erately dragging the question befure the electorate of the Dominion for the ignob!e purpose of putting race agiinst race and
