In Support of the Ministerial

Strong and Stlrring Addresses by `
Horace Haszerd, Premier
A Peters,l.l. Hughes, M. P. .
and Others.

rp, Kindergarten Hail was well ililed
mt avening he hear a presentation ei the
Liberal cause and down to nearly ,eleven 1
o’elook a number were standing in :the
aisles and open spaces. Hon. B. Rogers
presided and had about him on the plat-
form many of the leading Liberals of the ____
Island.
Hon. John Balderston was first called
upon and proclaimed himself aa old Lib- G,
eral and proud of it, who supported his T
party without fee or reward and predict-
ed another Liberal triumph in West °°
Queens. ` P'
William Molatt, of Mayfield was
. re
called up from the auditorium to the
platform and from the platform to make a N
speech. He argued that a tariff for
revenue such as we now have was better fa
suitelw this province and to Canada
than the higher tariff advocated by the w
Conservative leader. IN
Horace Haezard, the Liberal Candi-
date was the next speaker and waa re-
ceived with hearty cheering. I-Ie spoke L
of his recent trip into the country. the ’“
courteous treatment and favorable atten- IN
tion received during his canvas. He
proceeded to deal with the Liberal policy
and record of which he was proud. Seven B*
years of Liberal rule had given a splendid na
increase ln our trade and industry, in our IN
farmers' prosperity, inthe export of all
lines of Canadian production. The re~
venue of the country had proportionately Ll
advanced, yieldinga handsome surplus in
after providing in the most liberal manner
for the public services. He had met con- W
tradictory statements from Opposition s'r
speakers. Sometimes he was told we had
still the National Policy, having stolen it
from the Conservatives, and in the next M
breath was told that we must have Co
a higher tarih’ to give ads- C0
quate protection to our industries.
But we had not the old tariff; it had been PU
lowered. We have a. tariff for revenue
giving incidental protection; a policy
I
satisfactory to the people, as he believed K;

one week hence. They were able to show “P

double and treble the progress under the _
reform tariff in seven years that the T
Conservatives could show in 18 yeurs
under the old tariff. If more protection
was everto be given let it be to the
farmers and laboring classes. He praised
the Minister of Agriculture for what had
been done to advance our dairying, fruit pl.
and poultry interests. ‘ranching upon us
