MR. LAURIER'S POSITION.

I would like to contrast the position of Mr. Laurier with that taken by myself. I would like any intelligent man in this country to tell me, if hecan, what Mr. Liurier’s sentiments are on any question that has interested the public for sereral years past. I think it will be found that Mr. Laurier has a different story for every audience he addresses, and that to-day no man is able to say what the opinions of the Liberal leader are upon any question whatever. I think I may say this: that ifthere isa public man inthis country who cannot be challedged with ever, dur- ing the course of his public life, having endeavored to foment qnestions of race and religion, that man is mys<lf. (Cheers.) When the Government, of which I was a member, took its fein its band and staked its existence upon doiag justice to the Roman Catholic minority inthe Pro- vince of Manitoba, we were met ty Mr Laurier and al) the power that he could u3?, in order to attempt to strike down that Government. (:‘neers). One of the most extraordinary spectacles that was ever witnessed on the floors of the House of Commons of Canada was afforded whea Mr. Laurier was found taking such a course, aided bv Mr. Martin of Wianipeg, who had himself been main'y instrumental in perpetrating this outrage upon the Roman Catholic minority of Manitoba, oa the one side, and Dalton McCarthy, who has spent years of his life in endeavoring to stir up in this Canada of ours Lostility tothe French lavguage and to the Roman Catholic religion, on the other side, (Cheers and cries of “Shame”) It was, I say, one of the most astounding spectacles that has ever been witnessed in this country to see Mr. Laurier, himself a French-Canadian and Roman Catholic, sitting cheek by jowl with Martin of Win- n peg, and Dalton McCarthy, of North Simcoe, and endeavoring to use al] the power that be could obtain in the House of:Commons to defeat a measure brought forward by the Governme. t to give justice to the Roman Catholic minority in Mani- toba, and restore to them the privileges of which they had beeu deprived. (Cheers.) I ask you to take the speech made by Mr. Laurier on the floor of the House, bidding for the support of Dalton McCarthy and Martin, of Winnipeg, and contrast it with thespeech made by the former at St. Roches when be came down among the Cetholies of this Province. I sey, without hesitation, that the man who is afraid or ashamed to avow his opinions boldly and openly in the face of the country on any great question of that kind, is unworthy cf the confidence of the free and independent electors of this country (cheers). Mr. Laurier challenges me to repeat here the speech tuat I made ip the city of Winnipeg a few days ago,

and a difterent religion, is only

REPEATS HIS WINNIPEG SPEECH. Tan prepared to say that what F stated I made an appeal

at Winn'peg was this ; electors, who

were under the impression that the Dom inion Government was forcing séparate schools upon the Province of Monitoba. [ said, “‘Is there a man _ of intelligence here who does not see thit t'@ Govern- ment are only carrying out the judgment of the Judi:ial Comm ttee of the Queen’« Privy Council, a judgment which d clared that the privileges which belong to the Roman Catholic minority have been taken away, and that itis the duty of the Par-
