Replying to the Montreal Herald, which asks it to stop criticising Tarte, Laurier & Co. and their methods, the Gleaner, s rong Libe:al newspaper, representirg the feelings of honest, disappointed Liberals throughout the country, points from extravagant administration and unjust discrimination. The Toronto Globe urged the Liberal press to advocate a change. “The change was effected on the basis ofa contract between the leaders of the Liberal party and the electors who put them in power in 1896. The contract is to be found in the speeches of these leaders, in the motions of want of confidence they placed on the journals of the House, and in the plaitorm ad- opted at the Ottawa convention. The chief of these pledges were, that if the electors would place tke Liberals in office 1. They would give the country a revenue tariff. 2. Put an end to corruption. 3. Reduce the expenditure. 4. Stop the increase of the public debt. 5. Keep public lands for actual settlers. There were other promises of less im- portance; these were ‘he leading ones. If ever men went into cffice on the distinct understanding that they would adapt the tariff to suit the wage-earner and not the manufacturer, that they would put an end to the growth of the public debt, and stop the boodling, favouritism, and corruption which has sickened the electors, they were the Liberals of ’96. The understanding was clear and distinct that a revolu- tion in the management of the affairs of the country was to be made, that in place of extravagance we were to have thrift, in place of debt we were to have a paying-off of old scores, that for every dollar spent the country was to have full value, and the robbery of the public treasury, under whatever pre- tence, stopped with a firm hand. For four years a Liberal Government has been in office, backed by a powertul majority. Holding office for four years under most favourable conditions tor carrying out reforms, with a surpris- ing increaae of revenue and an entire absence of irritating questions to divide the Mouse, have the Ministers at Ottawa fulfilled the pledges on the strength of which the people placed them in power? Let facts answer. They were to keep down the public debt, they have increased it by eight million dollars; they declared the business of the country could be carried on with an expenditure of forty millions, they have increased it to over fifty millions; they promised to keep the public lands for the settler, they have voted over nine million acres to railway corporations; they were to protect the farmer against the extor- tioas of the manufacturer for such elemental necessities of the farm as fence wire, nails, implements, and coal oil, the Canadian farmer is to-day paying more than these articles can be bought for in the United States. These are broad features in the management of the country about which there can be no mistake, and in each one we find the Laurier Ad ministration has not only failed t fulfil its promises, but has done those things for which it condemned the Administration to which it succeed- ed. Inthe great lines of the man- agement of our country’s affairs there has been no change; there has been a change of men, but the Ministers who call themselves Liberals have been doing whatthe Conservatives did. It is in reality a question of geod faith. There is not a Liberal who reads these lines who did not, in the election of 1896, seek to get votes by promising retrenchment and honest government. Can he look these men in the face and say the leaders whom he then trusted have done what he expected from them? Are there not tens of thousands of Liberals asham- ed of the record of the past four years, and who recognize that the men at Ottawa have proved false?

Ministers have been al- lowed to do as they pleased, uncheck- ed by the outspoken criticism which would have kept them to their pro- mises, and the result is to-day the re- proaches that are being heaped on the Liberal name, and to which no sufficient reply can be made. Only those who believe that honesty in politics is poor policy will condemn the Gleaner for pursuing the cowrse of admitting what is true and seeking to remedy what is wrong.” We differ with the Gleaner on one point. It says these “ministers who call themselves Liberals doing what the Conservatives did.” The Conservatives certiinly never spent so much as the new Liberals are spending; th y never taxed so highly as Laurier does; and they were never guilty of such astrocious jobbery as that of to-day, and never will be. They were charged with many offences, and the people exercised a right which belonged to them when a change was decided on. But in the entire eighteen years of their administration there was no Crow’s Nest swindle. The Gleaner, however, proceeds to com- ment on specific cases, The Herald, With Years WISDOM.

AYERS CHARLOTTETON AUGUST it says, declares Mr. Bi.ir has made the Intercolonial a brilliant success. It that be true, why, in the closing days of thr session, was the House asked to pour $1,350,000 more into that sink-hole? By juggling with or- dinary expenditure and expenditure on capital account Mr. Blair made outa surplus on paper, but, in reality, there is a big deficit. Mr. Blair brought the Intercolonial into Montreal, the Herald cries, as if that were to his credit. What about the deal with Green- shields, agreeing to pay more than what the road had been offered for to Haggart, and the reduction in price when the Senate refused to pass the bill? Mr, Blair the Herald declares to be a strong man—his_ deeds certainly smell strong. The | Herald shows nothing against Dr. Borden except his buying from a party follower, who is not in trade, ground biscuits at $2 a pound, and says that transaction did not injure his personal reputation. If Dr. Borden was clean personally, why did the Government make the motion condemning the transaction one of want of confidence? If Dr. Borden was not to blame, why did the Government not lead in the move to have the guilty punished? The powdered biscuit, however, is oniy a trifling incident in the Minister of Militia’s Record.” He is answer- able, among other things, for cultivat- ing militarism, for “sending a body of troops to the Klondike atacost of halfa million dollars, where there was no more need of them than at Lake St. John, and his attempt to create a titled class by giving the Government power to appoint honorary colonels. The Herald affirms the time had not come when railway subsidies can be discontinued. Read over the list of railway subsidized by the present Gov- ernment, and see how many are stub lines, doing what the owners of quar- ries and mines ought to dofor them- selves, how many are parallel lines, and how many are lines that can never be commercial successes and are sub- sidized to bribe censtituencies. Take the instances at our doors. Eighty- four thousand eight hundred and forty- seven dollars voted to such poor men as Dr. Webb, Depew, and Vanderbilt co help them to extend the New York Central from Beauharnois to Caughn- awaga, and the N. Y. C.,, in grateful acknowlegement, sells tickets on the U. S. section of its line at two cents a mile, and on the Canadian at three cents. The paying of that $84,847 was a job, and nobody knows that bet- ter than Mr. Blair. At the session of 1898 the House voted with reluctance $270,000 to the Grand Trunk towards detraying the cost of enlarging the Victoria bridge. That was bad enough, but it was not the end of it- ‘the Government was afraid to ask at once all it wanted to give, and so it comes down this session witha de- mand for $230,000 more.” “The Iferald’s pretention that the subsidies are not fifty but 3 per cent. loans is ni-leading. It knows the truth, that out of amy service performed by these companiesfor the Government, such as carrying supplies or transport of vol- unteers, it may deduct a percentage. There is no provision to compel the companies to pay any interest on their subsidies in cash, and it is morally certain that not One in ten of them will p2y more than a fraction of interest in ihe shape of services rendered.

The country is paying 12 1-2 million dollarsa year more in taxes than it ever paid before, the debt is growing, and corporations and trusts have extended their bounds and strengthened their clutch. If the country is prosperous itin spite of what the Government has done, it is prosperous because Providence has sent good crops and the prices for farm produce have risen in Euro e, The true Liberal is notto be fooled by names or party cries.” In conclusion, tte Gleaner says it “will continue to be of the opinion thatthe Ottawa Ministers have been false to their promises and the principles they pro- fessed while in Opposition, and that the Liberals should, at least in:is on Sir Wilfred reconstructing his Cabin- et” This startling arraingment is an an- expected reply to the appeal to the Huntington Gleaner to “shut up.” It is a reply, however, which honest men of all parties will appreciate. Party leaders have no right to lay down a vlatform which’ they have no right to observe. When they have done this and have broken faith, and have intro- duced a regime of boodling, they have still less right to expect an intelligent electorate to endorse them, A Delicious Tubbing and then refreshing sleep—there is nothing better for any baby.
