IMPORTANT POINTS—OMITTED,

Mar, Davies’ argument in favor ef inves- tigation and conciliation in respect to Map iteba would ie all very well if it were not for two or three important facts of which he has not taken cognizance. For instance, Premier Greeaway said a few days ago:

“Tt has been reyorted that the Manitola “ Government would settle the School “ Question if Mr. Laarier came into power. “ The local government, so long as | have ** any connection with it, would ® make any settlement of the School Ques- “ tion which would involve the restorativn “ of separate schools.”

Mr. Davies refuses which puts “ conciliation” out of

never

to see this fact,— the question. We can’t reciprocate trade with a pation that won’t reciprocate ; neither can we settle a difficulty vy conciliation when one of the parties to it absolutely refuses to give way. The only proper course to be pursued in respect to the Manitoba Question is that set forth in the Manitoba Act and adopted by the Govern- meut, viz., the passage of a moderate and reasonable Remedial Bil!, which will at ence teach Mr. Greenway, and all other Provincial Premiers, that the constitution of the country cannot be violated impunity, and restore the rights and privi-

CAMPALGN NOTES,

Mr. Davies eaid at the meeting held last evening that the Liberal-Covservative Party had not opposed the construction of the C. P. R!

—Mr. Davies, also, is pledged to the Belfast railway. But he thinks the ear rying out of the Government’s policy in regard to branch railways in this Pro- vince “ the acme of absurdity.”

—Mr. L. H. Davies spoke last evening of our “ Emp'y Empire” in the Norti- west. Let us see. Were there not about eighty millions of bushels of grain grown in the Northwest last year? Not so empty, after all!

—The Hon. David Laird’s suggestion that Mr. Davies and his friends may do good work for the country in opposition, is not likely to find favor. Our people now desire, by way ofa change, to be on the side of the Government.

—Mr. Davies said last evening that the idea of transporting farm products to Great Britain via the Hudson Bay was “a wildeat scheme.” Refer to Hon. David Laird’s lecture on the Destinies of Canada, delivered in Upper Prince Street Metho- dist Church.

—Several Libera! canvassers went to the country this morning well supplied with “black ducks.” They seem to think

it a necessary preliminary to the elec:ion that the electors should he debauched. The attention of the Guardia: anil our

temperance friends is directed to them.

—Hon. John Haggart, Minister of Rail- ways, disposed of the Grit fake sboui Dr. Montague haviag resigned and Haggart “sulking” by saying: “There is not one word of truth in the whole story. Dr. Montague and myself are ‘n perfect accord with the policy of Sir Charles Tupper and shali continue to support ,him heartily and do al] we can to ensure tbe trinmph- ant return of the Conservative party on the 23rd June.”

The cases of Dr. Ross and Dr. McCormick, who published details of their recovery from diabetes and ht’s disease, throngh the agency of this remedy, were the tivat attacks on the citadel of their skepticism and now it appears as if the remarkable recovery of Mr. G.

The published interviews with Mr. and Mrs. Kent and the sworn statement of the former Jeaves no foothold for disbelief.

MERTING IN MARKRT HALL.

Dr. Jenkins’ Candidature En- thusiastically Endorsed.

THE OUTLOOK MOST ENCOURAGING.

Rousing Speeches by Dr. Jenkias, Alex. Martin, Senator Ferguson and W. §. Stewart.

A rovustxe Libera!-Conservative ratifica tion meetis g Was held in the Market Hall last evening. The Hall was weil filled with electors, and the greatest enthusiasm prevailed. The various speakers were received with applause On coming for- and throughout their remerks they were time snd again rou dly : pplauded. Every Literai-Conserv.tive present was ia exes lent epirits over the prospects for success ou electicn day.

Patrick Blake, K-q., President of the Association, occu

ward,

Liberal-Conservative pied the chair, and opencd the meeting with a brief speech. He expliined that they had met to ratify the nomination of Dr. Jenkins, the old war-horse, ant he hoped that this night week they would have the pleasure of again meeting in the same Hal! to celebrate the victory all over Canada of th: great Liberal-Conservative Party. He hoped that this province would do its duty and elect the five Con- servative candidates. From every of the province tbe political news the most cheering character, and from al! parts of the Dominion tue reports in ij

section

was of

ment led by Sir Charles Tupper. (Ap- pluuse). Dr. Jenkins was the first speaker, As

soon as the storm of applause which greeted him had subsided, expressed his pleasure at again addressing a Char- lottetown audience after a long campaign nthe country, He chen pointed out that Mr. Davies, in the course of his campaign

speeches, had been telling the farmers that the manufacturers are robbing the

country, whilst Mr. Laurier was tellinz the manufacturers that they would do notbing to hurt them. It will thus be seen that the Liberals are all things to all men. The Liberal-Conservative policy is the same all over. The policy cf protec- tion wasa sound one. It gives us a home market and keeps the money in the coun try. That is the best policy for the peo- ple. There is only one country that has adopted free trade,and that is England. Bat they are all consumers in Hagland. whilst in Canada we are all producers. In Can- ada we have no large class who live wpou their money a3 they have in England.

Mr. Daviea is not content with setting creed against creed but he wants to set class against class—he wants to set the farmer against the manufacturer. This isnot right. Qne class should support the other, a3 in union there is strength. ity having manufactories in Canada the money is kept in the country, and a!l are benefitted. In England, where free trade prevails, the farmers are on the verge of ruin. tents have gone down, and only the choicest farms gan be let atali. Five- sixths of the wealth, of Canada is produced by the farmers, so if you do away with the policy which benetits the farmers the whole couutry must godown. = |t is only by keeping uptie policy which benefit- both farmers and manufacturers that the prosperity of Canada can be maintained.

D-. Jenkins then proceeded to contrast the leaders of the two parties. Mr. Laurier had been in the Liberal Government from 1874 to 1878, but he had done nothing to indicate that he was a statesman; he tad done nothing that would proclaim him a man of ability. In Sir Charles Tupper, however, we havea man of exceptional ability, man who has been identified with every movement calculated to benefit the country. The abuse showered upon Sir Charles by his epponents was good evidence of his ability, aud it showed how much they feared him.

He then pointed to the misstatements of Mr. Davies with regard to the Hudson’s Bay Railway, and showed the great benefit this railway would be to the Northwest and the country generally as it would shorten the rea carriage some 600 miles and the iand carriage about 1,000 miles. Mr. Davies had said that the Government would spend $25,000,000 on this railway, but this was not the cave. The fact was that only $3,200 per mile, or $750,000, would be given. Mr. Davies also said that navi- gation of Hudson’s Straits was only open from the middle of June to the middle of July, when there was nothing to ship; but Mr. Laird, who knew what he was talking about, said it was open for at least three and a half monthy. Dr, Jenkins then took up the cold meats industry, and pointed out the steps being taken by the Government to have Canadian beef pro- perly placed upon the English market.

Proceeding, Mr. Jenkizs referred to the claims of victory on the part cf Mr, Dav- ies and his friends, and pointed out that they were equally sure ot victory in 1891, when they said through the Patriot news- paper that they were going to sweep the country. But somehow or another the sweep failed toconnect. This time the Grits will sweep the country much the same as they did in 1891. In this Province he thought it exceedingly likely the Liberals would Jose the majority of one they now have, and three or four more. I there is no material change in West Queen’s be- tween this and election day, Mr. Davies will get the surprise of his life. The Lib-

erals have adopted a yervy unfair policy on the School Question. In a Protestant district they say they will not get a Catho lie vote and in a Catholic d’strict they say that Laurier will do better for them than Tupper. He (Dr. Jenkins) believed it was incuinbent upon every man to assist in up- holding the constitution in respect to the rights of minorities aud majorities, and if elected he wou'd do his best to see that justice was done to all and that the constitu- tion was adhered to in every province, He believed, however, that the Manitoba School matter would be settled amicably, and would not come before Parliament again. (Applause.)

Alexander Martin, E-q., the popular candidate for the representation of Kast Queen’s, was also tendered an ovation on coming forward. He pointed out that in East Queen’s, as el-ewhere, the opposition discussed the leaders of the parties. In some sections they claimed that Laurier is the best man in the country, or even in the worl 1, and ia other sections they place Sir Oliver Mowat first. if Laurier is the best man, why put Mowat first? It showed they had no confidence in their leader. They condemn Sir Char'es Tupper, and say he isa bad man. During their lives they also abused Sir John A. Macdonald and Sir John Thompson, but now that they are dead they praise them. When

Sir Charles Tupper dies they will probably do the same thing for him. Sir Charl:s

Tupper is an exceptionally able man, a man who has much to develop Canada, It is no wonder he is cordially hated by the Liberals.

Mr. Martin then referred to the different policies of the Liberals, and «showed how they were everything by turns and nothing long. Now their policy was a revenue tariff, with incidental protection, After seventeen years fighting against protection thev were forced te come around to it at last, Proceeding, he showed that every article of food was from 30 to 59 per cent.

“That’s the time the Liberals bring back agaia,” replied - Mr. (Applause.)

The very p ric y the Liberals want the people to endorse, continued Mr, Martin, is the policy tested in the United Staves during the past two or three years.

Mr. Martin then took up the matter of branch ratiwavs, and referred to the cheer-

He also dealt with the branch railways matter, and asked | tow Mr. Davies could stand up in Parlia-

ment and advocate them in the face of his statement a short time ago that the “whole thing was a farce.

He believed the interests of the riding of West Qaeen’s would be well loeked after by Dr. Jenkins, and he felt sure that if the electors of Charlottetown did their duty now as in the past there was no safer seat for the Government than that of West Queen’s' He hoped that when they next met it would be to celebrate @ great vic- tory. (Applause.)

J. T. Mellish, Esq., then spoke briefly, afier which the meeting closed with ring - ing cheers for the Queen, Dr, Jenkins, Sir Charles Tupper and Senator Ferzuson.

THE OPPOSITION MBETING,

Davies at the Opera House.

Mr,

There were a good many vacant chairs on the platform; some in the orcbestra and about half on the balcony. Stil the meet- ing was a very respectable oue, the large number of ladies and young people present being a particalarly pleasing feature. Mr. A. B. Warburton occupied the chair, and opened the proseedings at about half past eight o'clock with a somewhat effusive speech. Mr. Welsh followed and displaye 1 his customary shrewdness by saying as little as possible and nothing to the point. He pointed out that Messrs. McGreevy and Rykert had been expelled from the House of Commons by the Conservatives on ac- count of corrupt practices, and (forgetting Tarte and McShane and the rest) said thar there was po man running in the Liberal interest who had a blot upon his character,

Mr. Peters rambled. His main point tbat Mr. Welsh would take a gooi majority out of the Fort Augustus District and was sure to win, notwithstanding what he called the “gerrymander” of the district.

Hon, David Laird then addressed the meeting, urging that it was a mistake to suppose that members of the Ifouse of Commous do vo good if they do not eup- port the Government, and claimed that no man had done more good for the country than Mr, Davies. He left “politica! pro- phesying” to Mr. Peters, but ventured the opinion that the prospect all over Capada was never brighter for the Literals. He briefly criticised the financial record of the Government and referred to the Mani toba school question.

Mr. Davies then delivered the speech of the even'ng, review.ng Sir Charles Tupper’s speech at the rink and setting forth the good intentions of the Liberal party —if

tion should be settled by investigation and

statem@nt respecting the $12,000;0.0 for railways in diffrent parts of the country after it had becn emphatically dened ty Sir Charles

Tupper, and in their zeal to prepagate the falsehool some of the papers indulged in

elaborate explanations showing the dif- ference between an order-in-counc] and 4 minute-of-council when no lifference exist. Sir Charles Tupper ha; emphatically denied that such a vote was passed, but even if it had passed not one dollar

of the money could have been paid with- out the sanction of Parliament.

Mr. Ferguson then showed howwthe misrepreseniation of Mr. Davies regard- ingthe Hudson’s Bay Railway had alco been persisted in, although it had clearly shown that there was notaing what- everin the story.

about the close of the session of 1895 | both the Patriot and the Guar- dian had published false telegrams

regarting a loan to the Hudson Bay Rail- wiy Company, and as these telegrams did not appear in any papers except these two he believed they never came over the wires. Continuing, Mr. Ferguson pointed out that Mr. Davies had made a great fuss over the Soulanges Canal matter after the Govern-

ment had taken ‘action’ and laid. the whole. matter before the courts. Even if Mr. Davies had done anything in the

matter, he (Mr. Ferguson) tkought he should stop his crowing till the courts bad given their decision If the courts should dec'de that the Government was wrong Mr Davies would probably change Ins tune:

From all parts of the Dominion come the most cheering news, and he felt sure that oue week from to-night they would again meet to celebrate the greatest vic+ tory in the hi-tory of the Liberal Conser- vative Party. The Winnipeg Free Press ig marfally supporting the Government cn its trade and school policy; and it was less thau two weeks ago that a letter was received froma gentleman residing at Portage La Prairie predicting that not a grit candidate would be elected ~ betweem Lake Superior and the Rocky Mountains. The Montreal Star is also cupnorting the Liberal-Conservative Party, and warning the people of Canada azainst support’ ng the Liberals. Then look at the course of the Liberal leaders. Sir Oliver Mowat, we were told, bal resigned, but when the facts came out it was found that he had not resigned but had merely sent a eympathetic Jetterto Mr. Laurier. Sir Oliver believed that a bird in the hand was worthtwo in the bush.. Contrast Sir Oliver’s conduct with that of the premier of Quebec. Mr. Taillon promptly resigned und entered the Tapper Cebinet and was now contesting a Grit stronghold. The fate of Haman of o!d is fast over- taking the Liberal party, and Laurier and MeCarihy have di-covered.that when they forced the school qnestion upon the people they made the mistake cf their lives. (Applause)

Mr. McCready here asked Senator Per guson if he understood him to state ‘that the Guardian had published a telegram

; which did not come over the wires, and

asked when this was done.

Hon. Mr. Ferguson, in reply, repeated his former statement, and Mr. McCrealy subsided. The applause vhich followed the repetition of the charge by Ho», Mr. ferguson was deafening.

W. 8S. Stewart, Esq, Q. C., followed, and was received with applause. Mr. Stewart caid he bad been through West Queen’s with Dr. Jenkins. and the pros- pects for his electicn were exée'lent.. The reports from the other ridings were also gocd, and everything augured well for the
