He would not occupy the time of electors in discussing the statements "made by them. He pitied/the aged leader ofthe Opposition from the bottom of his heart, and only regretted that the public life of Canada had been so degraded by the character of the campaign which he (Tupper) had inaugurated. It is the duty of the Opposition leader to point out to the country how its affairs may be im- proved and not dwell upon matters of the past and the resources of this great Dominion which has been developed. What hope did the Conservatives ho1d_out - to the young menof this country?'Did they point to one single policy upon which they stood and which was wort-hy of the confidence of the people?
