THE CITIZENS' BANQUET To Premier McBride a Splendid Success \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd Good Menu,. Good Speeches, Good Fellowship\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd Revelstoke's Prosperity. \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd ,'\" The banquet to the Hon. Richard McBride, Premier of British Columbia, at the Hotel Revelstoke on Friday evening was a most successful affair. Ahout fifty citizens were present. Mr. J. M. Scott presided, and on his right sab the guest of the evening, Hon. Richard McBride, while Mr. Thos. Taylor occupied the seat oil his left. The menu was an excellent one and splendidly sewed. After full justice had been done to the good things provided the chairman proposed lhe toast of \"The King,\" which was honored in the usual manner and hy the singing of the National Anthem. Next on the list was \"Our Guest,\" the Premier of British Columbia, and in proposing this toast the chairman referred briefly to Premier McBride's visit to Revelstoke, - and extended to him a hearty welcome. The company then sang \"He's a Jolly Good Fellow.\" On rising to reply the Premier was greeted with hearty cheers. \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd He spoke for about thirty minutes, giving a splendid address in which he referred in eulogistic terms to the city of Revelstoke, its citizens,' and the' resources of. the district, with which he was very familiar. He^Tpke of the early history \" of the\"' famous Big Bend district, giving particulars of the early rush of gold seekei'3 to the north of Revelstoke. He also referred to the enormous timber wealth lying north of the citv along the banks of the Columbia river and assured his hearers that from his knowledge of the district, its resources in mining, timber and agriculture, he believed it would in the veiy near future, make Revelstoke a large city. Itsgeogra- phical position was such also, thai nothing could prevent the city from becoming a great distributing centre and\" one of the most-'populous and prosperous cities in the province. His knowledge .of the- resources of the distiict tributary \"to- Revelstoke haul been..--acquired to a-\" great*-- ext'ehC through the'member for this riding, Mr.* Thos\"*\". .Taylor, who, he said, was untiring'in liis efforts to promote its welfare arid was at all times looking sifter matters whicli effected this city and district.*-- The Premier concluded his able address by urging the citizens to stand shoulder . to shoulder for the public good, as it was only through united action of the whole that great good could be accomplished, and Revelstoke through the combined efforts of its people should become one of the most important cities in British Columbia; the prosperity of Revelstoke meant the prosperity of the province, and the prosperity of the province that of the whole Dominion. At the conclusion of the Premier's speech the chairman called upon Mr. Hudson fora song, which that gentleman rendered in.the usual good style. The toast \"the Provincial Legislature\" was the next, coupled with the names of Mr. Thos. Taylor, M. P. P., and Mr. W. M. Brown, who was a member for the Provincial House for Cariboo in 1885. Mr. Taylor, on rising to reply, was well received. He spoke of the .visit .of the Premier to the city, and felt assured that his com-, ing among us was for the good of the city and distriet, in so much that the honorable gentleman would see, for himself the progress that we are making, and become also thoroughly acquainted wilh the requirements of the district, and that_when^he_:.was,mnk- ing demands for appropriations for necessary public works, he would have one at least who knows the conditions as they exist. In replying to this toast of the provincial legislature, there were questions, that might be discussed, that would suggest partisanship. He spoke of the financial condition of tbe province wlien the present government took hold of the reins of office.' In the neighborhood of $750,000 annually, was the deficit. But, he. was \"pleased to assure his friends that he- gathered from- the provincial auditor, with whom he recently had a conversation, that for the first time in the \"history of British Columbia this year would show that the expenditure was well within the revenue, and marked a new era in the history of the province, that argued well for its future prosperity. Mr. Brown was next called on,and after joining in the'welcome to the Premier, he gave some interesting facts' in regard to the early history of British Columbia, and\" of Kootenay in particular.' He referred to the time he had the honor of a seat in the legislature,'-as member for Cariboo. At that time the Kootenay was represented by \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd two , members, the total voting strength of the district being 32. While in the House at that time, the speaker said, there; was a movement to cut down the representation to one member,-and hei as an inland representative strongly - opposed it, predicting that within a few short years .not only two representatives but, many more would be necessary to represent the important district of the kootenay that, in those days, from its immense richness iu .natural i*esources,\" was attracting the attention of capital from all over, the world. He referred to his arrival in Revelstoke about1 eighten-n 'years ago. ,How he bad seen it grow from a mere hamlet to.'. its present^tate, \"which was most encouraging. . >.-.. , \"Mining and Lumbering,\" was the next' toast, coupled, with the names' bf Messrs B. Adair arid C. F. Lindmark, and to which Mr. Adair replied in a splendid speech, in which he referred no the immense timher resources of the Big Bend district, and all tributary to this city. He also spoke of the mining resources of the Big Bend, and predicted that these resources, as yet practically untouched and undeveloped, \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdwould one day be the means of making the prosperity of Revelstoke and district a marvel to the whole of Canada. Lack of space! however, prohibits much further reference to the speeches, all of which were well received. The toast of \"The City\" was responded to by Messrs W. J. Law and H. Manning. \"The Press \" was the next toast on the list to which A. Johnson of the Herald replied.\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd*- The toast of \"The Ladies\" was most eloquently and gallantly responded ; to by Messrs. A. M. Pinkham, Dr. Sutherland and'W. F. Ogilvie. During the evening Mr. Pat Murphy replied, to the toast of \"Our Navy.\" Mr. Murphy at one time was* a. member of the British navy and has seen service in the Crimea. '\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd-\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd Mr.!

The banquet wits.; brought to a close ahout 12:30, with vote's of thanks to the chairman, and those who contributed to the programme, the singing of \"Auld Lang Syne,\" and three rousing cheers for Premier McBride.

Bowes, formerly of Rossland, 'have been very fortunate in their, mining investments in Nevada, where they have heen operating for. the past two years. They are interested in the Jumbo at Goldfields, Nevada,. This -property was located hy Taylor Bros., who were formerly prospectors in the Kootenays. Messrs. Bowes and Mc- Kaue own a third of the stock and are backed in their ventures by Schwab the man who for awhile was at the head of the American steel trust. About three months since Messrs. McKane and Bowes secured a four months lease on a portion of the Jumbo and they have struck it very rich. The stories told of the richness of the mine seems to be incredible. So valuable is the ore that the dumps are guarded day and night by armed men. When Jumbo ore is shipped to the smelter guards accompany it, as a man could carry oif a small fortune on his back, provided he got hold of the richer ore. John McKane. is well known here and opposedJGalliher in the last election. The Herald, with Mr. Me- Ka'ne's many friends here, are pleased to hear of his' success and extend congratulations.

Those interested, by looking over the votes and proceedings of the House of Commons and official reports of the debates, will readily trace the ^duplicity characterising every movement made by Sir Wilfrid Laurier's government in dealing- * with labour questions. Even the operation of the Chinese Restriction; Act was suspended for nearly nine months in order to allow vast hordes of Chinamen to invade. British Columbia and other provinces coming , in by thousands, paying a small fee instead of $500 of a tax. The Chinamen were or were, not wanted in Canada, but \"Opportunism\" triumphed. In the House of Commons the efforts of private members to introduce and carry through measures promising to prove beneficial to the working classes, . was promptly voted down by a'servile majority. .When a candidate was defeated for the Commons he.was elevated to; the \"Senate; -many.' were pitchforked in office and readily became the enemies of that labour which aimed at protecting, itself. \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd Some were made. judges,- and others were, -available for \"commissions,\"\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd notably in western labour troubles and Yukon hydraulic concessions. At all events, the very Liberals who received earnest support from the working men of Canada in 1800 and again in 1900, were the first to forget their pledges. In 1901 Mr. Clare, member for Waterloo south called the attention of the House of Commons to the fact that while there was' upon the statute book laws dealing with aliens, the poor man was unable to avail himself of such, as the machinery was too costly, it not being possible to take action' without the consent of . the Attorney-General of Canada 1 Mr. Clare introduced a bill promoting an economical method of enforcing the existing law. He further said : \"I believe that if the bill ,1 am.,now discussing ....were enacted, -*>the.-?law would he- more'' strictly carried-;'out, and with not one cent pf'expepse. My bill provides that any\" person, for instance, any laboring man or mechanic, who is interested, should have the power to 'lay information before two magistrates and so enforce the law. That would not cost the country one cent, for those who are most interested, the mechanics and labour- men would see that the law is strictly enforced.\" Despite the eloquent appeal made by many Conservatives in favour of this reasonable proposition, Sir Wilfrid Laurier side-tracked Mr. Clares measure and promised to bring in a \"government bill,\" which he did; but how ? That bill, while to a certain extent an improvement on the original Act, had the very same objection as the Bill of 1897: that is it put every possible obstacle in the way in order to make it unworkable. Instead of appealing to the Attorney-General of I he Dominion for the enforcement of the new law it was necessary to apply to the Attorney-General of the particular Province or to a judge before the matter could be brought before the'magistrate 1 In short the machinery was made more intricate than ever. Mr. E. F. Clarke, of- Toronto, again appealed to bave the clauses so altered as to.give power to police magistrates to_._try_ cases,^ of.\/: alleged,: infraction of the law. He hoped the right hon. premier, having gone so far in amending the bill, would have seen his way clear to have accepted the amendment which was offered on two occasions. Mr. Clarke pointed out that it was the unanimous work of the labour organizations. These \"friends of labour,\" these champions of human rights and modern privileges, turned a deaf ear to all pleas. It is true that some supporters expressed themselves in favour of Mr. Clarke's motion; in the western portion of tho Dominion, most o( the judges are at the Coast. The member for Yale-Cariboo invites others out, suggesting \"that the proceedings should be taken on sworn affidavits laid hefore a justice of the peace or stipendiary or police magistrate,\" Brave words these; the party lash cracked and when the vote was taken the member was absent and the '.'friends of the workingman\" voted solidly against. Mr. Clarke's amendment. Perhaps it would be well. to refer to another deformity \" the Act to settle railway disputes;\" this bill was to be historic; brains and statesmanship in the concrete. It was eulogised as a legislative elephant; it proved to be the mere skeleton of a monkey.\" Legislation conserving the rights of the workingman, was, naturally, a tremendous drain on the intellectual reserves of the Postmaster General and Minister of Labour. Sir William evidently believed that he had done enough for his country, and forthwith indulged ina carefully arranged junk- etting tour, one of those, \"private oar\" trips, so obnoxious to\/ patriots when the Conservatives were in power. Scaroo had. he departed, ere tne bad workingman took advantage of his absence A strike in Rossland, trouble in the Boundary country and complications in Fernie, all in the west; railway troubles in Vancouver and at other points. All along the line, a perfect holocqust of stupendous tribulations\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdall sized up \"by Sir William as the machinations of the \"lower* classes.\" How not to do it, is a fav- ty Hay, Oats, Bran, Shorts, Feed Wheat, Flour, Rolled Oats, Etc. if * f' Bacon, Hams, Eggs, Groceries and ty Canned Goods, Etc., Etc.

Then some time after, followed the Fernie troubles. Who settled these ?

Elliot S. Howe of Victoria, with Mr. Mackenzie King, the clever deputy of the Department of Labour, as secretary. Hon. Sir William Mulock was not prepared to wait, therefore hastened to introduce a profoundly statesmanlike measure \"Bill No. 17\" was flashed upon the House, \"An Act to iiid in the settlement of Railway Labour Disputes.\" This was a^milk and water decoction, meaning neither arbitration and conciliation, or conciliation without arbitration. In short, the Minister blew hot and cold\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdall the same, Mulockism the head of the department may do this, .may do that, nothing definite, except indefiniteness ; all grievances to be \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd redressed and how to redress them, were left in such a glorious slate of uncertainty, that in the aggregate they comprised neither fish, flesh, foul nor good red herring. It was in the Senate that full discussion and dissection of Bill No. 17 took place. . The Hon. R. W. Scott, Secretary of State, nearly choked over the dose, still it was more palatable than usual. *\" He pointed out that the bill had for its object the appointment of \"a committee of conciliation, mediation and investigation. There was .nothing compulsory about the bill, except the attendance of witnesses, when the committee choose to call them.\" ' Sir Mackenzie Bowell spoke of the measure as absolutely inconsequential. He was right, for at the time a commission was travelling over the Pacific coast investigating and preparing a report with reference to the very issues Sir William Mulock was professing to deal wilh. That report certainly appeared; it was far from fair towards the men who toiled; they were not represented and suffered accordingly. Meanwhile Bill No. 17. after being roughly handled by Liberal Senators, got back to the Senate in . the shape Ministers desired. Sir William was able to make another trip to ease his vreary brain, seeking new fields to investigate and new countries to conquer. Let us see how he did it and how readily he induced his Senatorial friends to strangle his iasb ' departmental offspring. , J - School Attendance. \"..The following statement^shows tho-\" number of pupils enrolled'in the Rev-el^* stoke High School, and ..-in each di'vi-** sio'n of the public \"school'during tbe-;\" month of September.

Western KaihouJ of '3rent\nI.'titain. On duly j u regular nonstop daily train sei'.ice was established between the London terminus\nat I'liddington and Plymouth. The\ndistance is 210 miles, und the \"Cor-\nnislunan Limited Express\" is scheduled lo over the journey in each direction in 2bii minutes without a single\nstop. This supplies an average speed\nof 5.1.f>9 miles for the journey. This,\ntherefore, constitutes the longest\nnon-stop railroad run in the world.\nLONG HELD KKCOUD.\nEver since, thc year .lSOO this railroad has retained such a non-stop\nrecord, for in that year the railroad\ncompany initiated a throug'h non-\nslop train from London to Exeter,\n19-1 miles, covered in \"3 hours minutes,\nincreasing thereby tho average speed\nto 56.7 miles per hour. Hitherto\nthis railroad has not been able to\nmake the journey a non-stop one\nbeyond Exeter, owing to the absence\nof the \"Valor.- troughs between the\ntracks from which to replenish the\nengine's water supply. Now, however, a trough has been laid down\nat Starcross, between ICxeter and\nPlymouth. Furt'iierniore, the coal\ncapacity of the engine has been considerably increased, und larger lubricating boxes hnve been supplied, so that the oil boxes can contain a sulllcient supply for thc entire\njourney.\nNOT YET AT' LIMIT*.\nMeritorious though this run of 2L3\nmiles in '2'dfi minutes is, yet, if the\nnecessity arises, the speed can ba\nconsiderably accele. ated. This fact\nwas demonstrated on May 9lh last,\nwilh the North tleman Lloyd liner\nKronpriuz Wilhelm. On this occasion\nthe- train covered the distance ol\n2-KVJ miles from tho dock at Plymouth to Paddington in the remark-\nab'y short time of ;{ hours -1(5 minutes. The run, however, Was not a. I me to\nnon-stop, as a mail van was lie-. I fail\nlatched and engines changed at Dris-\ntol, necessitating a halt of ',1 minutes .'13 seconds, . which slop, how-\nover, was included in the lime of the\nfusion was 05.19 miles per hour for\nthe whole journey, nnd lhe last 'AH\nmiles of the rim to Paddington was\ncovered at the rate of 79.17 miles\nper hour. On the occasion of fan\ntrial run of tlie \"C'ornishmun Limited Express.\" a. new record was mado\nbetween London and Haih. the 107\nmiles being completed in 102 minutes. \" \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd -\nTELLS OF DIABETES CURED BY\nDODD'S KIDNEY PILLS.\nW.

An elderly lady in mourning*, like most of the Fcring- Iiccs in that year, reclined languidly ln a long cane chair, doing nothing whatever, with th'o nir of a proficient in the art. She was pale and slender, her hands seemed made of transparent ivory, if one can imagine inrrfeclly limp ivory. A novel lay, \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffda a small table by her side in case ' \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdhc should be able to rouse herself to the effort of reading. A girl with dark hair nnd eyes nnxl .. a rich English bloom on her face, yet bearing some likeness to the limp, faded,.dried up lady on tho lounge, sat erect at a table, writing quickly and sometimes pausing to think, now with a deepened color brought by a happy-passing-'thought now with a smilo as at some pleas- nnt. remembrance, sometimes even with a pussing shudder as if at sonic horror. Her mother 'occasionally directed an irritated glanco toward hcr and made a peevish movement. \"I really wish, Ada,\" she said prc-icntly, \"that somebody would call.

Ada. \"Surely you won't grudge poor ilr. Randal such a small thing as a letter just before the storming of Lucknow? I am now writing to wish him good luck,\" she added, coax- ! higly. \"It is not worth a fuss,\" said Roso to her mother-in-law; \"in the 'Surely you have not been writ ing to that young Randal in this heat ever since tiffin?\" cried Mrs. Maynard, startled into faint animation at last; \"Ada, I. will not permit it. Such' a correspondence is most improper, quite out of the question.\" Ada meekly represented that she had only written once lK'fore, so that it could scarcely bo called a correspondence. Common civility required that she should write to thank Mr. Randal for his help and protection during the march from tlio Dilkoosh.a,; not .to\" speak of his assistance in bringing her from Ileel- umpbre and through the 'rebel lines to Lucknow:. And if Mr. Randal had been so very kind as to write and tell her how things were going on at the Alumbagh, and all about tho Cawnporc battles, and * why Sir Colin did not begin the actual siege till now, and report upon the health of hor father and brother, surely it was only what might bo permitted to a gentleman who ' ha-s accidentally been1 on\" sucli intimate terms as their dangerous flight necessitated. \"I think it great impertinence of him to presume upon the accidental intimacy.\" said her. mother; \"all sort.-' of strange adventures have happened during the Mutiny, everything has been topsy-turvy; proprieties have'-'been'neglected,; sadly' neglected.\" \"We certainly were not over-ceremonious at Lucknow,\" Rose; broke in. \"I; washed- Sir.

How can I let my friend go into such an action without a word of kindness, and hoiwith no friend nearer than England?*' So saying, Ada deliberately, folded and sealed hcr letter, and with a quivering lip and eyes like two stars in a frosty night, rose and walked slowly from the-room with an air of proud determination that Mrs. [May- hard .\"feared. \"Rose, is it true that this wretched boy rose from the ranks?\"- sho bable that he would jever sec her again. Tliis very improbabflitj* gavo him a sort of plenary indulgence to think a little of her sometimes, and recall their adventures more than he would havo done had there been anj' hope. It is not only lawful but right to mourn over a new-made grave and muse a littlo upon what can never be again, and the Alumbagh was so dull, and offered such temptations, to long brooding memories'. Yet when Miss Maynard's graceful and friendly letter \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd', of thanks and pleasant reminiscences arrived, he was not so very much surprised; the camp routine seemed cheerful, and the. well-worn jokes of his surviving brother officers (for a comrade's death was a too common incident) fresh and amusing, though, as one cheery young fellow said, if they did not make their jokes see a good deal of service they would havo to do without' any. This letter had the curious effect of \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdmaking him add- a couple of closely written pages to a letter he had already written to Jessie, whose continually repeated desire to leave the neighborhood of Cleeve and seek remunerative employment elsewhere, seemed to him, compared to the grim realities surrounding him, but ns the vague discontent, of a spoiled child, and like that to be caressed and teased away. \"I can never be too thankful,\" hc wrote'in that very letter, which'-was dated Christinas, \"that. you. aro* surrounded ..by people who know all about ns, and are with Mrs. I'lummer, your nearest relation.

'->V (To be Continued.)\". FLY TIME. At this time of the year live- stock as well as people are much annoyed by the pest of flies. In the bo'uso especially the kitchen, they cause a great deal of grief. Also in the dairy room, for which they have a strong affection, they do a great deal of mischief, and* thi.s is also true in the stable whore the cows uro milked; Very few use precautions to reduce the number of these pests. We give some suggestions as to how the trouble they cause can be largely reduced, and farm animals have their comfort greatly increased during this trying season. The Hornfly\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdThere Is probably no insect so annoying aiid which does so much damage to cattle as the horn- fly. This lly haa rap.idly spread over the United States. It causes heavy losses to tho s'tockmen for it is very annoying to the animals, causing them to lose very rapidly iu flesh and, if thoy are dairy cows, will cause a great, shrinkage in the milk. As stated beforo, the loss is due to tho intense irritation, which causes the animal continual worry and interferes with their feeding and prevents thcm from digesting their food properly. This fly has the popular name of \"hornfly\" because the flies collect in large number at the base of the horns. They settle very thickly near the . base of the horn, often forming a complete hand oue or more inches in width. This fly can vory oat'ily be destroyed on account of the females laying their oggs in fresh cow manure, for if some disinfectant, such as lime or any of the coal tar preparations, is put ou this manure it will destroy the .larvae\" and\" in that way reduce the number of flics. Another good remedy is to paint tho horns. Add one ounce of iodoform to several ounces of any ..of. the .coal tin* dips, zenoleum preferred. If the horns are painted with this it will prevent the flies from collection there. Tho Common Stable Fly.\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd-Another .well known fly whicn is widely distributed .is ..tho common stable fly. Its bite is 'very severe and causes a great deal of annoyance to cattle and horses and. in fact, to all domestic animals. *\\\\T 'fully into his pocket, and was about to leave the place when another man entered and greeted the purchaser, with. \"Why. hello, Charlie; who. would have thought of seeing you?. What are you doing here?\" \"I've just boon buying a watch.'i was the' reply. \"Well, if that isn't strange. I'vo jui't come in to buy a watch, too. Let me have a look at yours. That seems a pretty nice watch*. Wh'ut'a tho price of it? I'll get one just, like it.\" Whereupon the jeweler, delightcit at the prospect of another sale, pro-- duccd a watch of the same kind and was handed another \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd50 note. This also ho carefully examined, and, detecting nothing suspicious about ita apiiearance handed over the change. The two men were departing when a man of official appearance dashed up in a cab. \"Ah, I've caught you, have I?\" he shouted, covering tho pair, with a revolver. Then turning to the jeweler, he asked : \"Have the.ie men just given you two \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd.*50 notes?\" \"Yes, i'ir,\"- replied the frightenvd shopman. \"Well, they're forgeries, thc clever* est we have had in England in many a long day.

G, \"100,1, THE ELECTIONS. Parliament has been dissolved and the elections are to be held on Nov. 3. This leaves just five weeks for the fight. Tt is R short time, but we know the Conservatives are ready. The.'Government was afraid to face a long campaign, .(luring which the issues could be exhaustively tliseusscil and.their, object- has been to catch a snap verdict. But the situation has been clearly under-stood by the Conservatives and public opinion is ripe. The issues are the gravest tlie people of Canada have faced for twenty-live years. They- ni list vote for a new t.rans- , continental line to be constructed immediately under Government ownership and control, and free from parti- zan management, as .opposed to a scheme that would fasten the control of corporations on lhe transportation of the country fora century., without even effective regulation of rates. They must vote for the smashing oi the terrible -Machine that lins been built up tinder Liberal iidiuiiiisn ation for the corrupting of political life and for the stealing of eltction.*-. They must vote for a return to fin- uncial economy and the preserving oi the check of the Auditor-General. In so far, however, lis this particular tiding is concerned tlie l.lKitALD doc.- not know when the elections wiil be held, Hie fact is that XV. A.

'\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdUse every issue, violate pledges, wink at cori*uptio*.i, have two sides to your shield, fawn to the church in ono section, frown upon it in .another; utilise the School question, yes, deceive the highest .authority in Rome, but win* tijjs mlkctioxs.\" XVe do not assert these things, without being .able to prove theni; wo do not nsl* any elector be he Liberal or Conservative, to accept ;is gospel truth, the statements now imide. . The people are shortly to decide between a, clearly defined policy enunciated by Jlr. R. L. Borden, as leader of the Conservative party\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdand Sir \"Wilfrid Laurier and what remains .of n Cabinet Ihat strangled every pledge made to the electorate.,;. Let us go back to lS7(i, when Sir Wilfrid Laurier was preparing' to .accept the position of 'Minister, of Inland Revenue in 1S77; we find him a .Protectionist\", and avowed high -tar-ill' advocate, an uncompromising enemy of free trade, still playing the double ,^,'iiiie; ho knew .French Canadians lo be Protectionists, he knew his leader, Sir Alexander Mackenzie, to he a free trader, consequently, faced both ways, in these words, (see ollicial debutes, .1S70' : . \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd \"l do not deny that I have been a Protectionist, which I Air still. It is asserted by ni.any and assumed by others, that free trade is a Liberal principle and protection a. Conservative principle, I beg to dissent from this doctrine. if i were in Great Britain, i would avow free trade; but I am a Canadian and T think we require protection.\" When the issue came to a vole, of course plain ilr.

Then he was made Minister of Inland Revenue. >vent back to his constituency, was defeated, then elected in Quebec City, and has represented East Quebec evei TIIE NATIONAL OPPORTUNIST. How can any lover of bis cMinlry, any man who believes in Canaiht and national ptogre.-s, for one moment place confidence in Sir Wilfrid Laurier and his colleagues:-' The latter have deliveicd themselves over lo hiin. bondslaves for salary and emoluments. \"We say this in no ungenerous spirit: public records prove this assertion and establish our contention that Sir Wilfrid Laurier. irrespective of racial appeals and the effort to stiivthe passions and prejudices of the miisses in Quebec, has been false to every profession onee fervently enuiieii'.ted by hiin. Sir Wilfrid Laurier was nn ambitious man; he abused the confidence of Liberals, abused the confidence of hi.s own compatriots to compass the design of leaching Ihe Treasury benches, Had thi.s been done by any individual in the ordinal y course of business, he would have been scouted on all sides and driven to tin- walk. \"Power\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdget it honestly if you can, but at all events or nt every mice. In ISSO-1 the present Premier oppos- .1 tlle government terms for building be Canadian Pacillc Railway. I')e- -pite this, the road was bnilr. and 'n-il.-iy he is found introducing a policy *!i p irli.'iuiout pledging the e.-.iuu ry to in expenditure of Hil7l),ll(HI,IHIi| for n rjiiitii transcontinental railway. Sir Wilfrid Laurier's next, .attempt lo cajole the electors on tlie trade .'pK-stiun was a, declaration at Toronto in Ittll: \"The.

This was \"Wilfrid Laurier; this is now the llight Honourable Sir \"Wilfrid Laurier, \"Democrat to the hill,\" K.C. 11., P.C., Premier of the .Dominion*, And yet I here are Liberals prepared to vouch for Ins political consistency.

Happily 'the Hon. Kdwurd Blake opposed the policy (although not making his letter public until after the general campaign) and the Hon. Wilfrid Laurier was forced to go back and sit down again. However, he had declared : \"\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdWhen the Liberal party comes into power, it will send Commissioners to Washington, to propose a, mutual agreement, by which there will be free trade ai.oxci tub avuot.e line, doing away with restrictions and KEMOV1XG THE CUSTOMS' HOUSES that go so far to cause friction between the two countries.\" This is the 'statesman who, as the Right Hon. Sir Wilfrid Laurier,.P.O., is about to ask a renewal of the country's confidence! Let any unprejudiced man compare the tariff of 1890 with that of 1001 and estimate the revenue derived from each, and he will then realize how grave a broach of confidence the Premier is responsible for 1 Finding that the unrestricted reciprocity bait was not swallowed for more (ban ono season, the present Premiei' cast about for anothei* (ly ; hence lie'advocated \"restricted reciprocity.\"' Tt was in ISO!, when he avowed :_'.\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd' \"If we como into power, I promise you u'comniission will go to Washington, and if we can get a treaty in national products and a list of manufactured .articles, that treaty will be made.\" Certainly commissioners, went to Washington but no treaty was iiri'iuigeil. To-day Sir Wilfrid Laurier says \"we have asked often enough' for a treaty-1-it is the. turn of Washington lo come to lis.\" Quite a patriotic mood for a leader who promised so much. This is a case in which patriotism pays; a cheap kind, very transparent and rather unworthy of a statesman. But Sir Wilfrid Laurier followed up his ISO! speech by one made in Montreal in ISflo:- \" The Liberal patty believe in free trade on broad lines, such- as exists tx grkat bhitain\", and upon that platform exemplified as I have to'd- yoil.
