The Nominations.
When the last Parliament was
eeted in 1891, 13 Conservatives
Oda Liberals were returned with -
at a contest. One of the Liberals
ten returned unopposed was Hon.
t Salad 'Laurier, who is opposed
dst%.me, though there is no doubt
tat his majority in'tu,ebee East
ill be at least 2,000.
In the nominations on Tuesday,
;It four candidates secured seats by JJ
teiamation. Of the four, three are I
ztireIy opposed to Sir Charles Trip -11
sr's Administration, and one is al
ipnservative. In two Quebec conn- I
s the contest is between Liberals I
Conservative being in the field, i
id that is equivalent to another
en seats by acclamation. In many!
tnstituencies, both East and West i
'ere is a family quarrel in the Con- h
rrvative party, and the two wings l b
-Tupper and anti -Tupper -have, i
;ch placed a candidate in the field i b
Isere only one Liberal is running.
#re nomination results are decided-

Liberals, Patrons and McCarthyites
now is, "Anything to beat Tupper."
Even if this be true, it is not horrify-

that no calamity could be so great
as the domination of Tupper, Boodle

The Dominion Government is
praised for having the courage to
prosecute McGreevey and Connolly
for theirstealand for giving them the
extreme penalty of one year's im-
prisonment, less 9 months on account
of poor health. It was indeed brave
when it is remembered what these
men could have divulged if they had
chosen to do so.
Sir Charles Tuppet•,in my humble
judgment, is utterly unfit to be the
Leader of any party who have any
respect for themselves, or the Leader
of any House that has respect for
itself! I say he is unfit to be the
Leader of the Party ! He has not
been here very long, but he has
been here long enough to do what is
disgraceful to the Party of which he
is the Leader. -McNeil, Conserva-
tive.
To the hide -bound partisan we
have nothing to say; for him we have'
no use, but to the Liberal-Conserva-
tive who has, in the past supported ! l
his party on a question of principle,•
doing what he consciously believed'
to be right, such an one, we would I
warn to consider well what he does

deeply interested in the prosperity
of the country, and there are few i
any men in Canada, whose word o
the maternal condition of the peopl
have greater weight with the uirrsse
of the electorate than those of Mayo
Jameson:-
While I have not been taking an
active part in this election I have u
hesitation in expressing my views o
the subject. I believe that a chins
of Government at Ottawa would b
greatly to the benefit of Winuipe
and western Canada, In a genera
election like this we must not b
guided by our preferences for this o
that man, but mast vote fur the mai
who is the champion for the tiro
being of the cause which we believ
to be right. Mr. Hugh John Mae_
donald is a eitizen of whom any city
might be proud and he is a man
who would do credit to any con
stituency as its representative, bu
be has unfortunately allied himsel
to a Government which during the
last ten years has grossly rmisman
aged the affairs of the Northwes
and has largely- contributed towards
producing the great stagnation and
depression from which we are suffer-
ing. With regard to immigration
there is no doubt that the present
stagnation and cessation is duo to
the almost entire cessation A'immi•
gration. In a new country where
immigration ceases values drop
lower and lower, as they have been
doing of late years. For this state
of things Sir Charles Tupper is
directly responsible. As High,Com-
missioner he was at the fountain head
of the stream of immigration, and
practically controlled the immigra-
tion policy of Canada. That policy
las been acknowledged to be a
failure, and yet in western Canada
we are asked to put at the head of
the Government the one Ivan in all
Canada who is responsible for this
!failure. I am voting against the
Government of Sir Charles Tupper
because I believe, judging by his
past, that the eleetion of that. Gov-
ernment
ov
ernment means five years more at
least of extreme stagnation of basi-
n ness and depression of values in
- Winnipeg and the Northwest. .1
believe the only hope for a cessation
of the depression and stagnation of
the Northwest is a change of Gov-
ernment at Ottawa. In England
we always turn out a Government
` every five years, and the plan works
well. There is no doubt that the
Conservative Government, during
the first few years of its existence,
did do a great deal for the North-
west, but during the Iast ten years
their policy has been a policy of
plundering and blundering, which bic
has resulted in the extreme depres-
sion which nuw exists in the North-
west and in almost e entire cesssa-
tion of immigration."

The Laurier -Mowat demonstratio
last night was immense in every re
spect. There were great crowds of
people who had to be addressed from
several platforms at the same time
after the fashion of the Hyde Park
meetings in London. The people
were enthusiastic in their manifesta
tion of esteem for both the Liberal
leaders, and there was an extraordi-
nary.absence of disent. If great
political demonstrations are at all
significant Mr. Laurier will receive a
big, if not full, delegation from Mont-
real. Sir Oliver Mowat seems to be
thoroughly convinced that Mr. Laur-
er will be returned to power on
Tuesday next, and Mr. Laurier is
also confident. Certainly all the
ndications point to that conclusion.
-Witness.
Sir Charles Tupper and the
Tupper organs are dismayed at the
avoc wrought in their fiscal policy
y Mr. Chamberlain's declaration
that a revenue, tariff must be the
asis of imperial preferential trade.
aIr. Chamberlain's plain statement is

Remember Dr. Macdonald's mass
eeting on Monday night.
that 'within the different parts of
the empire protection must disap-
pear,' and that the 'duties must be
revenue duties.' Sir Charles
Tupper and his organs must now
accept Mr. Laurier's policy of a
anadian Tariff' for revenue, so far
s Great I3ritain is concerned, or
Ise give up imperial preferential
trade. Is Sir Charles Tupper will -
ng that protection for Canadian
ianufacturers as against British
anufaeturers 'shall disappear,' and
hat a revenue tariff shall be substi-
uted, as Mr. Chamberlain demands?
f not, then he must give up imperial
preferential trade. Mr. Laurier's
alley of tariff for revenue is, accord•
ng to Mr. Chamberlain, the neves-
ar,v basis of imperial preferential
rade.

STARVING!
SAD CONDITION OF RU DRFDS IN
NEWFOUNDLAND.
St. Johns, Nfld., June 17.-W.
H. Reid, who has just returned to
St. Johns from a trading trip to
White Bay, reports a distressing
situation there, several. hundred peo-
ple being in a starving condition.
A few seals were got in White Bay
this spring, and the residents from
Partridge Point to Englee were in
terrible destitution when Reid left.
The wretchedness is beyond descrip-
tion, many barely sustaining life by
eating mussels, crabs and other shell
fish, which they frequently devour
as soon as taken from the water.
Reid had afull cargo of flour and
provisions, and people carne from the
farthest points of the bay begginga
little, as not even a potato was ft
for the families to eat, He gave
away over $50 worth the provisions.
Many travelled to Little I3ay, Tilt
Cove, and even to Laseie, to obtain a
bag of flour. People would come
aboard his scooner and demand food,
some deelaring, "If you don't give
us provisions, throw us over-
board : we cannot but die." The
postmaster at Englee had a year's
stock last fall, but owing to keeping
so many families the last few months
bad to beg from another person at
last. The slrooner Margaret went
into Englee, having broken her
rudder in the' ice on the way to the
Straits. Her anchor was scarcely
down when boats boarded her look-
ing for provisions. If some steps
are not tatten to send relief many
will starve to death. Ried thinks it
would be dangerous for a trading
vessel to enter the bay, for she
would be looted of all on board.
