Hensall saw fit to nominate Me and
here I ,am,e.nd I may say that in my
xecent tour of the riding 1 have found
that the convention's cludee met with
general favor," •. •
In telling language Mr. Horton
took up the declaration cif $ir Wil-
frid Laurier' at Brantford that. he*
would reduoe the taxation of the
country it 'placed in power. What
lad occurred .? The taxes • had in-
creased from, •
27. milliens to 42 Mill-
ions in five years, a remerkable
growth in the burdens on the people's
shoulders. The total expenditure in
five years under Conservative rule
had been 42 millions. The govern-
ment of the Liberal party had seen
fit to inerease the cost of mailing the
Dominion goeerrunent to 76 millions'.
Nor had there been any plausible rea-
son for this sudden desire • to epend.
the people's -money. ' It had • been
scattered her and there, and r•o oth-
ers than the ratepayers • of ,eleeforth
and every, other cxnemanity htd paid:

Mr, J. 8, Carstairs, seeretazy ot
the Dominion Conservative Assocla,,
tion, reviewed the history at the
Coeservative party from the days of
Sir John Macdonald to the present.
• The Conservative party Was the Par"'
• ty of . patriotism, said the speaker,
and 'lei its course ot the past four
or eve years had proved that its at-
titude towards public questions was
the tine best calculated to guide the
• young Dominion in the „satest• path.
The speaker strongly endorsed 'the
candidate, and he urged that the vot-
es

cause of the bye -election, the death
of B. B, Gunn, 1L?. The House of

"You may think. that the ,xecord. ot
