Now it Was $1,400,000, or an In- crease of 70 per tent. Judged by that, the Provincial Government must surely be vindicated in the eyes of the members; of the Opposi, tion to whom the amen at Ottawa were exemplars. By the same kind of comparative 'logic he answered the statements so often repeated, that the Ontario Government had been 'wasting the resources of the Prov- ince. • Contrasting the administra- tion of public lands by the two Gov- ernments, he showed that the total amount received . by the Dominion Government from publie lands was $4,275,000, while there had been ex- pended upon capital account for land .$3,419,000, and out of- consoli- "dated revenue $2,119,006. If to this was added tine annual amount paid, ' the Manitoba Government for the lands taken from that Province,.a de- ficit of $2,000,000 appeared as the t Dominion Government's administra. tion of the public lands.

"The Liberals would destroy their interest." "We are the farmers' friends." Well, continued Mr. Dryden, what have they done for the farmer ? They have made some of us sick with such talk. They have given us the chance to buy such a niaehine from the Massey - Harris Company at a dearer rate than our brethren' in the antipodes. (Cheers and laughter.) Do we get more for our peas and our barley ? "I see," continued Mr. Dryden, "the farriers in the audience aro smiling —they know what I mean. Let us see : In I3afi`ale, on Jan. 13 barley was 72 cents, in Toronto 45 was on April 14, in 1311111 o,73 cents, in Toronto 43 cents; on Sept. 9, in Buffalo 66 cents, in Toionto•40tents;. on Nov. 10, in Buffalo 64 cents, in Toronto 44 mats." With fine irony, aurid the applause of the audience, M[r.Dryden asked: "Is that the kind of protection you want ?"

CASH SYSTE —FOI THE ---- IC It is now nearly twelve months, since Svc first opened up our deers, un- der the present management. At that time, when we announced our intens tion of doing.a STRICTLY CASH BUSINESS__. The knowing ones looked very wise, and declared it could not be done in Wingham, at we have proven clearly, not only to ourselves, but to the public at large, that it can be done in Wingham. We have had many years experience in the LONG ChtEDIT SYSTEM, under every .existing condition, and pronounce it a failure every time. Now after one year's experience of the CASA SYSTEM, and that in a time of great depression, we have come out on top, and pronounce it a success. We have in the past by keenly watching the markets of the world, carefully studying the wants of our customers, small profits, and close attention to business, succeeded in our aim, in placing good Goods within the reach of all. We are happy to state, that this year we arc in a•much better position than ever to give you the benefit of close buying. Now before STOCK TALKING, and in order to make room for SPRING GOODS, we will, during the remaining days of our financial year, make SWEEPING REDUCTIONS in, prices; all FUR and HEAVY GOODS will go, REGARDLESS OF COST.
