in good time if you to a seat- DoSomething During the past four years the Do minion has had a Ad ministration A few things accom plished after previous Governments had toyed with them without accom plishing any practical results or had failed to even think of we here ap pend The abrogation of the German and Belgian treaties The granting of a preference in this market- to British goods over foreign goods so that our diminishing ex ports are beginning to rapidly grow again The listing of Canadian securities in Great Britain Penny postage within the Empire and a domestic postal rate of two cents yet a 600000 annual postal de ficit already reduced to the vanishing point Putting of the Intercolonial Rail way on such a new basis that it yields a surplus instead of the deficit that was supposed to be inseparable from its existence The establishment of a successful system of cold storage on the Atlan tic whereby the most delicate fruits and food stuffs can be carried in fine order to England in midsummer The building of the Crows Nest Pass Railway which although misre presented and given an evil name thru attacks long persisted in is a boon to the West and apart from its own usefulness was used as a lever to pry open the grip that the IK had wrongfully been given upon the im mense country west of Winnipeg The pushing forward in a business like way to completion of a fourteen- foot canal waterway from the great lakes to the seaboard making possi ble the big developments now under way at Montreal and Port The establishment of a mint where Canadian gold can be made into coin If Quebec is going against the Gov ernment why pursue a policy of mis representation which if successful would inevitably endanger Confedera tion if the Maritime Provinces are solid for why appeal to sectional prejudices regardless of the effect such a course might have upon the general welfare of the Dominion answer to each of these queries obviously is that the Opposition knows right well that it is engaged in a hope less fight- Happily for the good name and the future of Canada these tactics have not the faintest chance of suc cess A Country In their desperate efforts to get office by hook or by crook no ex pedient however questionable is being neglected by the Opposition They care nothing for the reputation of the country at- home or abroad During the last three sessions of Par liament they did ever thing that ingen uity could suggest to discredit the hon est name of Canada in the eyes of the world until as Sir Charles de clared Three contingents rang the story of infamy a story by the way originated with the Op position and has not to this moment received any independent confirmation Now that same Opposition are busy endeavoring to discredit the country amongst our own people They it may be true I hat Canada is prosper ous but that other countries have been more prosperous- They declare that while work is plentiful here is yet more abundant elsewhere that wages have not advanced in Canada while tfaev have increased in other countries and so on Even were any of thse statements true the patriotism promulgating them would be exceeding ly questionable but there is no ques tion as to the execrable character of tactics that would disseminate such statements when there is no founda tion for them It is not true that Canada has been less prosperous than other lands Take the States for ex ample our trade- has increased at so much greater proportion per head of population that the Americans are loudly complaining of the pressure of Canadian competition As to the con dition of the the evidence in our favor is the fact that absolute contentment exists here while across he line strikes and labor troubles are as acute as ever Tory assertions on these points are thus shown to be false will support the men who take a right position and stay with it or Tupper which electors will decide next Wednesday for Gould and for another parliamentary term prosperity and you will make mistake no The watchwords given Sir frid to the electorate of Ca nada are Union Peace Friendship and Fraternity Canadas trade for July and August is greater than the same months in the last year of Conservative rule- Agricultural products and animals and their products exported to Great Britain have increased from in to in One man one vote You can only vote once next Wednesday See that it counts for the Reform Candidate and continuance of the period of pros perity Candidates for Parliament are now facing each other the Domin ion Only two- elections by acclama tion on nomination day one on each side viz Lavergne Liberal for and and Sea gram Tory for North Waterloo At one of Mr McCarthys meet ings in North Col- OBrien an oldlime Conservative expressed this opinion of the Opposition leaders preference policy As to Sir Charles policy of a preference from England they might as well expect a slice of the cheese of which the moon is made as to expect that the English consumer under present conditions was going to grant anything of the kind During four and a half years ending Dee Canada shipped to the United States cattle receiving therefor Since Dec the shipments have reached for The Laurier Government secured the removal of the qua rantine restrictions Mr Roche wants Ontario to support the do- nothings for the farmer who were in office before the last general elec tions- Signs of the Times It is- all very well for Sir Charles to persist in his prediction of Tory victory and to add to the ma jority which he pretends to anticipate as his prospects of success grow beau tifully less The country has had so much experience of the accuracy of the Opposition leaders prophecies that it- takes them at their true value Ac tions moreover speak louder than words and If Sir Charles is so con fident of sweeping Ontario how comes It that he hurried off to Toronto Saturday to endeavor to put heart in to his followers there arriving so un expectedly that his most trusted hench men did not know he was coming he got there How is it that he has to again tour the Province in the vain hope of aownteracting the Impression created by the Premiers recent visit a tour decided on so suddenly that details of the itinerary are only being made from day to day If the West is solid for the Opposi tion why is it considered to bog copies of the Toronto Globe up of extracts from Tory campaign literature in the hope of der elfins the electoral and if nothing beat Hugh why is reconstructed thereby keeping the Premiership open for Mr McDonald to nep buck again after he has had all rite experience wants on November The Gullible What duffers imperial statesmen and the citizens of the em pire generally must be At the lime of the Jubilee in they got it into their stupid heads that Sir was a statesman of which the empire might well be proud a citizen who by common consent was entitled to rank in the- very forefront of the empires best Thatjopinion lias stead ily grown from day to day and never was stronger than at the present- mo ment And yet Sir Charles Tupper and his followers declare that Sir Wilfrid is but a puppet in the hands of designing men He is a nice man a very pleasant gentleman but he is not a leader It is notorious that instead of being the head he is the tail of the Cabinet Again the people of Great Britain have got hold of the ridiculous notion that Can ada has given them a very pronounced preference in our markets and they are stupid enough to show their appre ciation by purchasing In return of Can adian products hundreds of thousands of dollars worth more than they ever did before but Sir Charles and his supporters are laughing in their sleeves at the gullibility of the English peo ple for they persistently declare that England has no real preference The whole thing is a clever fake Unhap pily for Sir Charles the great majori ty of the electorate are just as foolish as the balance of the empire and on November they propose to return to power the same Sir Wilfrid that he may continue and fur ther develop the policy that he has ori ginated and pursued so successfully since June Right and Sonny it About six months before the last general election the personal organ of a certain prominent politician declared that Free England or a reduction in the duties in the goods brought from Britain of JO or per cent would not only enormously cheapen the cost of living in this coun try but the British consumer would take more of butter cheese poultry meats fruit and cattle than he does now pay for these goods Nothing that can be conceived can give country greater boom Since the opin ion was expressed the duty on this class of imports has been greatly reduc ed and the result has been exactly as was then predicted for never has this country experienced a greater boom than it is now enjoying Marvellous to relate the man who at that time in his own paper demonstrated hip clearheadedness and good judge ment has receded from his position for this opinion is from The Orange Sentinel the personal organ of Mr Clarke tfic Tory member for West Toronto There be a fatalism about these Tories for when they do happen to be right they evident fell so comfortable that they take the first opportunity of wrong again But the electors Senator of Broekville writes to the Globe giving an explicit denial to a statement made last week by Hon Clarke Wallace at his Junc tion meeting to the effect that he Senator had paid a sum of money for his title as Senator He says the statement is absolutely false and untrue He further says that the other statement that he is using his for advertising pur poses in connection with his business is equally false and untrue Mr Wal lace now has the floor Opposi tion campaign appears to be a cam paign of slander The man who wanted a in the person of Cook has now made an affidavit that a Liberal mem ber of Parliament known to be in the confidence of the Government came and told him that the position could only be had on the- payment of Mr Cook also states that he is wilting to make good his charges be fore a commission But while he re iterates the charge he fails to name the person against whom his accusa tion is made and to add to his un fairness he refers to an investigation before a commission which he knows cannot be appointed till after the elec tions are over His whole conduct now looks like seeking revenge for dis- appointed ambition Meanwhile Sir Wilfrid Laurier has reiterated the statement he previously made denying that he ever authorized directly or in directly any one to interview Mr on behalf of the Government or himself and characterizing the whole accusation a foul slander Mr Cooks ingenious affidavit business will cook his goose Mr Fred Lundy of Mrs Al bert Queen Street is back from Sturgeon Fails Mr Mo ley Manning and wife her sister Toronto were visiting in Town over Sunday Dr formerly
