This pleasure is intensified by the knowledge that you have recovered your health to enable you to continue as our leader, and to devote your great talents and invaluable services to your people and your native land. "Time. the great arbiter of events, has demonstrated to acer- tainty that the electoral reverse of i935 was not due to any failure of policy or deficiency of administra- tion. The measurcs adopfed and methods devised by your Govern- ment to meet conditions of flniin- cial panic and national adversity. have, in as far as they escaped molestation by the succeeding Government, proven to be the bcst that skill could devise and keen foresight inaugurate to contend against that world wide depression which in intensity had no parallel in the world's history. “In those days of international calamity there were many tlious- ands in Canada, as elsewhere, out of work and in need.

Our best wishes are with you, with those encouraging convictions in the promises of success." MR. BENNETTS ADDRESS "My first wordsflsald Mr. Ben- nett. “must be words oflthankful- ness to you for the kind address ivliich you have just read to me, I but I should like. before I proceed, to thank you not only for that expression of confidence, but for this magnificent convention. Icon- gratulate you from the bottom of my heart for having come here to- day in such numbers. I do not recall that I have ever seen a. finer convention than that wliichi I see before me this afternoon”! (Applause). - "I congratulate you not. only on: your numbers, but on the repre-j scntative nature of your conven-l tion; on the faces before me of men and women who are anxious about their country's affairs, who are concerned about its business. are interested in its welfare; who that come after them as well as of the immediate future. That is apparent from the tone of the meeting. "When I heard Mr. Miirley speak I reflected that he had been in campaigns now for sixty-nine years. ‘Phat is a long time, and his being here today is for the purpose of indicating that he is still as profoundly concerned in all that affects the welfare of the people of this Island. “Ladies and gentlemen. what brings you here today? Deep down in the heart of every man and woman in this country there i5 a. desire to do something for the land in which they were born or make their home. Some may do it in one way, some in another, but everywhere I have been I have seen an earnest desire on the part of our Canadian citizens tomake some contribution in their life- time to the well-being of ' their country. "You in this beautiful Island have a. great history. I spent an hour or two today in the old Pro- vincial Building, and I saw there the memorials of the past, the rec- ord of the achievement of the pioneer Fathers of Confederation who made this country a united Dominion. Arid I could not but be thankful that their descendants are not unworthy of their achieve- ment. Your being here this af- ternoon indicates that you have ii strong anxiety about the welfare of Prince Edward Island and of Canada. Party Alma Defined "What is a Party?" asked Mr. Bennett. "A Party is an instru- ment'- w accomplish an end. It is not an end in itself. The end is the peace and happiness and prosperity of the people. To ac- Wmblish that we have a party or parties which are composed of men and women who have a general agreement upon matters of pfln- ciple. However different their views may be with regard to minor do- 1B11-5l llllon great questions of principle they are united. And there never was a day when can. adians can feel prouder that they belong to the Conservative Party than today." (Applause). “Some people tell us they are not concerned about the past. Show me the man who is not con- cerned about the past and I will iihow you the man who isnot oon- cerned about the present. foi- the past is the story of our determin- ation and achievement. "Today Prince Edward Island has eight members in the Parlia- ment of Canada, four in the Sen- ate and four in the House of Com- mons. Name me any other part of Canada that has such represen- from cure-all partisan doctors of many colors and stripes, all seek- ing to lay the blame at your doors, aiid hold out a “Hom of Plenty". o.’ beautiful exterior but without any substantial contents. In their great extremity many of the peo- ple took heed to the deception. but have since realized the mistake. "It is an omen of significance that in this Garden‘ Province which has cradled confederation you sre making your first public appearance upon the political plat- form which can scarcely be doubt- ed is the opening step forward on the campaign which will again on the first opportunity enthrone you as Canada's First Minister. "The signs of the times are eas- ily read. The failure of Liberal- ism to lmplemeii. its plethora of election promises is one of the largest contributaries to the re- newing popularity of Conservative policies and the favor of the people. In our own Province those failures have been so exten- sive and pronounced that mrr on- tatlon to a population of less than 90.000. Why was it? Because the members oi.‘ the Conservative Par- ty of that day believed that this small Province should not find lt- self with its representatives re- duced to two or one, and you have four in the House of Commons because your representation there must never be less than the num- ber you have in the Senate, which is four, established by the Consti- tution. That wag because a party ‘called the Conservative party of that day introduced the legislation to amend the Constitution tothat end." (Applause). "If you read the records of this country you will find that in i907 the Liberal Government of that day introduced an amendment to the Constitution with regard to financial terms. by which they provided that the subsidies then prevailing should be a. final and irrevocable settlement. I would recall to your mind what has hap- pened aince, in the way of addi- 'ion.= tn your subsidy from the Dominion Government and Parlia- t. ma?! you look at those two facts alone you will see at least some 73.3911 why we should be concern- ed about the Pill- ltreaaea Organisation "But. 5 party as an instrumen- tiility to accomplish an end can only live and function and be useful as it. ls organized. If it be loose. disjointed. unwieldy: thing to which men give spasmodlcsup- port and forget it tho next day, then it is not an instrumental- lty to achieve results. You can only maintain the party by or- ganlzatlon, and you can only maintain organization by effort. by work. Isn't this country worth doing a little for? I have_ seen memorials all over Canada. to the men who died for Canada in the Great War. Well, if it is worth dying for it is worth living? for, and it can only be made worth living for if you believe in the poi- lclas of your party, and in this case by organizing your forces be- hind Dr. MacMillan whom you have today elected as the leader of your party in this Province." iloud applause). Tribute to Dr. lllaclllillan After further discusing party organization lvIr. Bennett contin- ued: "What have you done this attor- noon? You have come in larger numbers than I have cvcr expect- ed toysee at. a convention in the afternoon in any part of the, country, at this time. You havel come here at some personal in- convenience, and you have come first of all to discharge a great and solemn obligation to the fut- ure, You have nominated a man to lead your forces. a. gentleman of high professional attainments. whose political past you are well acquainted with; one who has an earnest and sincere desire to do what he can for Prince Edward Island, fhe Province in which he was born." (Applause). “As I drove with him yesterday we passed g little spot, and he said. ‘That is the school that I at- tended as a. boy. and there yonder is where I was born.‘ I realized by the way in which he said it how very sincere andveamest was his desire to give back to Prince Edward Island some part. of what Prince Edward Island had done for him." "I too was born in a small vil- lage, over In New Brunswick. I went to a vlllage-echooLvery much like the school the Doctor at- tended in his youth; and I thank God every day for the opportun- ities that came to me as a youth. to improve myself and my post- tion. “Here is Dr. MadMillari. gradu- ate of a. great medical school. an eminent practitioner. who served you as Premier for some years.

Mr. Bcuiicil: “But they say’ he is a grufi‘ man." (Ilauglitcr and applause). "I remember ivlien Dr. MiicMillan uscd to come up to Ottawa sometimes. with that loirg Highland face on him n; if he had lost all his frlcnds and the rest were about to depart. I used to say ‘What is wrong with MacMil- lan?’ but I learned that that was just his expression, and that a warmer heart never beat in any man's breast." (Loud applause). "Sometimes, if he didn't get what he wanted. he would go away and I thought he had gone home. But the next morning I would be told that Dr. MacMillan was waiting to see me. He would come in and say, ‘So we are going to get the road, are wcT-or what- ever it was. Ho. took it for grant- ed that if he stayed long enough he would get it,-but never a smile! Still the dour. sad Scotch look upon his face. You know what it is like. Most of you have seen it-and you know, too, what determination of character tinder- lies it." (Applause). "l know of no man who came to Ottawa during my time with a greater determination tn express the genius of the people of‘ this Province, their hopes and aspirat- lima; their requests for things; why they thought something should be done that liad not been done; why they thought sometlilngshould not be done that it was pioposcd to do. He expressed that determ- ination always In terse words. lf he cvcr made any long speeches to you. he never did to rne. Ila always spoke to the point, and al- ways with good Scnteii common acnse behind him." (Applause). "Now you have elected Dr. Male- Millan, a busy professional man, to serve you in one of the most difficult. positions that any man can fill, and I have never seen a, more representative body of mcnl and women iii my life, in a popu- lation such as yours, meeting to- gether for such a purpose. Points To The Goal "Do you realize the power of your numbers this iiltomoon? Do you realize what. you can do? You have asked this man to he your. standard-bearer, to head your, forces, and you hope that by so doing you are going to give Prince Edward Island better government; you are going to give it a govern- ment of which you will be more proud than you are today. (Ap- plause). You are also going to do justice to a. man who in the few years that. he was Premier, devot- ed himself to your interests with a zeal and determination that verin, very few men that I have ever known, have done.

In the course of his remarks, he paid a warm tribute to the late Dr. Robertson.
