Sir Louis on the Results of the'| Protective Policy Still in

|

Operation.

Contemporaneously with the advent of Sir Louis, the steam dredge with two tugs pvade its appearance in New Loudon.

Tke meeting was orgenized by appoint~ ing Mr. James McLeod, of Graham’s Road, Chairman.

Atter a few remarks, of his own, the chairman cailed upon Mr. George Found to read an address to Sir Louis, which was very complimentary, indeed, reciting all the wonderful achievements of Sir Louis in Pafliameot and his heroic deeds in Washington and London.

Sir Louis was received with applause. He spoke fluently avd well, in fact his whole speech was a glorification theme and thoroughly whitewashed bimeelf as (he cleanest and purest politician in the land,

The meeting was graced by the presence of several ,ladies and Sir Louis did rot fail to attribate his success in political life to the presence and inflaence of the ladies although they bad no votes.

He said it was now thirty years since he éntered public lite; and while he admitted that there were many points upoa which he might have done better still he boast- edtbhatbe always did bisdvty ard kept bis hands clean. ‘1 have returned as you koow from an important mission to England in the matter of the Alaskan boundary. I was authorized to settle it by arbitration or let theion take Dyeaand Skag way aod leave us Pyramid Herbor. | spent three or four weeks in England on this question. I wrote # book upon it and I leftit with Mr. Cuamberlain. Although itis not public property lam in bopes it will besubmitied \o the public. I subd- mitted my report to the Goverument and we have agreed upon a temporary line for the present.” He them launched into the Imperial question aod praised the Govern- ment for their united action in sending troops to the Transvaai and a!so to the good feeling existing between the United Siaics and Great Britain. ‘* It would be criminat on my part,” said Sir Louis; “10 obstruct tbe good feeling of the two couo~ tries which has oaly manifested itsel: for the last two years;” and one would in- fer that this gocd feeling was ail due to the 1oflueace of Mesers Laurier and ‘arte and the present Dominion Govercment. He said the sending ofa contingentto Africa was an extraordinary step without a precedent. “Some of our meno hesitated, without calling parlia~ ment, but the beart of the Canadian peo- ple was in favor of it. While I acknow ledge that those who hesitated had law on _ their side, yet Canada was justifi din sending them. To- day, if it was required,more could be sent. At present the second contingent is not required.”

At this time, he said, the Tories were trying to make pary capital oat of this matter, but they were irresponsible mea, and the great body of Canadians are ratis- fied withthe caution exercised by th§ Dominion Government. Party govern- ment is to be subordinated to the general good.

Then Mr. Davies alluded to the prosper- ous time. ** [he couot:y is progressing at a rate unprecedented in her past biatory,” he suid : “From 1896 to 1899 there was an increase of LOO millions, «qual to the pre-

vous 27 years.” The Goveranent of the day, he said, had 4 right to take credit to themaelves for this prosperity as it was aided by their pol:cy and under their rule. We are aleo accused of not keeping our promises, said the learned minister. Tup- per the dear old man with great vim and vigor goes abontthe couatry saying we did not keep our promires, “I say there uever wae a government that kept their prom - ises like the present goveroment. When we came into power we bad a racial war on the school question, There could be no peace or harmony until that was setteled. Wil any one say it was notseutled. We settl.d it as we promised, but if the policy of the Conservaties had continued in power the country would be distracted. Then he savs have we reformed the tar ff, the old Foster tariff which was building up mil- lionaires inthe country. We reformed it in thedirection of free trade. We have removed the hateful specific duties, took 25 per cent offal! British goods coming ‘into this country from Britain so that it fixes the price of all o.ber gocds from other countries to the same level.

‘For years we had the Tory party talk- ing loyalty. They never acted it. We are proud tbat we have reduced the tariff, and are giving cheaper goods and building up the Empire. What are tle facts? Where you found cne tall chimney five yesrs ago, you have nowten. In every department you find the benefiis of tbe grand old policy of—Mr. Fielding. There is now hop2in the future of Caneda. Whe e wouldthe Tory party be? Whrre would they get their support only from those who ure setkirg tor cflices and could not get them? The pecple of Can- ada are more than sati fied with the so'icy of the Liberals. In 1895, Mr. Foster hed , a deficit of four millions. Last year they

In short vou will #00n havea cable of your own. We gave you tbe two cent, postage. We built the Crow’s Neet and tapped that great country abd stopped American supplies.

We believe in Csuads for the Cana- diana. We are spending more money than we Were, But instead of having defisits we bave surpiuses. [ read in THe Ex- AMINER that Sir Louis Davies wae a tailure. Tbe, talked about another winter boat and we built one custing $180,000 and ehe is now lying at the wharf. They talked of the Beifast Railway, bet Sir L. H. Davies came in and passed the law to huildit. If they want a nonentity to send there they have plenty of them in their ranks. I believe that the country will renew their confidence in me. I am uot ashamed to face my foes. I[ thank you from the bottem of wy heart for your reception of me.

Some person in the meeting asked about tne plebiscite on the prehibitiop question, aud Mr. Davies reglied that he had given &@ Written promise if a ui jority was for prohibition be would voie tor it But only 224 per cent of the eectors had favoured it. The most pronounced tem- perance men they met (hought it unwire to introduce Jegi-lation where the people did wet yote in favour of it. The ques- tion fs now under consideration to weet the views of their temperance friends,

Mr. John C Clark. and Mr. George Simpson were called upon by the chairman and they were so completely whitewashed that they approved of everythiag aad were prepared to follow Davies in every~ thing. There was only one voluateer speech, thatof Mr. Harrington. He must have swallowed O’Coone!!, Grattan and Burke for he made the speech of the even- ing and Jaunehed out from the shoulder with loyaltv of Pricce Edward I-landers in fighting forcountry ad Queen.

This sutisfled New Loudon Liberais. They will never see another poor day. No one asked, for there was vo opportunity given, about the price of oats and potatoes aud the price of kerosene oi], and the great reducton Mr. Davia eecured on binder twine, whereby the Brantford Company declared a dividend of 100 per cent. No one asked about the New London branch r. ilway,and the petition of the electors that he ignored. And to hear Sir Louis one wonld think that he attended to all the aftairs of his own district. New London may well exclaim,—

‘‘Nought shall make us rue If we to oureelves do rest but true.”
