The Premier and several other members of the Cabinet were present. Sir John was very happy in his remarks. Towards the conclusion of his speech he said : ** The term of office of the present Govern- ment would not last much longer. , The elec- tors must be appealed to within a couple of years, and the prosperity of the country since 1878 having been so marked and due infso gre.t a degree to the legislation and administration of the last twelve years, he thought the Govern- ment could confidently appeal to the people of Canada for a renewal of its term ot office. (Loud cheers.) He was satisfied that the workingmen of Canada would rally round the Government. He was conscious that they felt that instead of despondency and despair they recognized that prosperity, due to the National Policy was here. In alli that the Government had done, whether they were right or wrong in any step that they took, he could say tor himself and his colleagues that they had always acted according to the best of their judgment, and they be- lieved for the benefit of our beloved Canada. (Loud cheers.) He had no doubt that the Government would receive the support of the working classes at the next general elec- tion—(loud cheers)—and if they only acted together, as they had done in the past, victory was certain. (Loud applause.) He believed the prosperity of the country depended on the continuance in power of the Liberal-Con- servative party, which had for its basis the National Policy and was resvlved to carry it out. A reversal of the policy of the last twelve years, it was quite certain, would only result in ruin, depression, despondency and despair. (Hear, hear.) He did not fear any such reversal, He knew too well that the in- telligence of the people of Canada would never lead them to reverse thit policy. (Hear, hear) When he was gone he was proud to believe and know that he would leave behind bim a body of men imbued with the same principles as those he held, resolved to carry out the great prin- ciples of Canada for the Canadians and equal rights for all. (Loud cheers.) One other satisfaction he had was that wherevre he went through the country he found that the young men of Canada were Conservatives. No matter what had been the political pre- clivities of their forefathers, the young men saw that the Liberal-Conservative party was the party of progress, and they were not going to lag behind with the do-nothing policy. (Loud cheers.) Sons of extreme Reformers were giving up the cries of their fathers and rellying around the party of progress, the Canadian party, the party of patriotism.” (Loud cheers. ) ”s bos wee Apvice To Morners.—Mrs. Winslow’s Soothing Syrup should always be used when children are cutting teeth.

The Water Commissioners therefore urge upon the Council to pass a resolution em- powering His Worship the Mayor, on behalf of the Council, to sign a petition jointly with the Commissioners, praying for an amend- ment to the Waterworks Act in the direction indicated above. Should it be deemed advisable to insert a clause in the “Bill” to make the $12,000 of city debentures issued last summer for water service pipes also w charge upon Water Works, this latter amount, together with the issve now asked to be authorized, will extend the total limit of issue for Water Works’ deben- tures up to two hundred thousand dollars, Given under our hands this 10th March, 1890. 7 il Dayip Latrp, JouNn KELLy, Avex.
