meeting was to get the consent of Mr.
M. C. Cameron to contest West Huron
at the coming election. In this they
had been sucoesaful, and the great en-
thusiasm exhibited by this meeting prov
ed conclusively that the best nun in the
riding had received the unanimous nomi-
nation. Mr. Cameron had claims u
South Huron, and South Huron
claims upon Mr. Cameron and if the
matter could be arranged, Me Cameron
was pledged to accept the nomination
for West Huron. For Mr. Cameron to
accept a noutinati.et ineant the securing
of victory at the polis (Hear, hear.)
Now was the time for a bold front te be
shown. It was true the Reform leaders
had faced heavy odds in the
House; they brutd a majority against
them so large that it could not be
broken, and though they charged on the
serried columns time and again, despite
their valor they had been forded back.
Then it waa that the Reform leaders
made up their luluds that the final ap
peal trust be made to the people. But
at the eleventh hour the gerrymandering
bill was brought down by Sir John, the
effort is made to stifle public opinion,
the "Grits are hived," and an attempt -
an abortive attempt it would prove -
it made to legislate some of the best
of the Liberal politicians from public
life. Sir John had packed the jury by
act of parliament in his own interest,
regardless of the fact that nibmember
should have a voaoe or vote in parlia
ment os.a question in which he was per
sonally interested. Must of fhe Tory
members of Ontario were personally in iii
terestedin the ulrylnandenng Act, yet
they voted and spoke, in favor of it.
But, nutwithatanding the carving up of
the constituencies, he firmly believed
Right and Truth would prevail, and
deceit srul trickery would meet its own
reward: The corrupt acts of the present
Government enumerated by Mr. Came-
ron were only a moiety of their iniqui-
ties, and the abilities of Sir John Mac-
donald -and he had abilities --could
not compensate for his wrong -doing.
Sir John Macdonald. although a clever
[Lien was not a good man, and no Con-
servative in Canada would say he was a
good mail: But even Conservatives
admitted that Edward Blake was a good
and true, as well as s clever man, an
°rater and a statesman. Hear, hear.) Mowat Oliver had been ridiculed
fur being a "Christian statesman"- and
he was proud to say that he was a
Christian statesman and an honorable,
upright. God-fearing gentleman in es'ery
sense the term implied. (Cheers.) The

comprehensive synopsis of the streams

plainly showed where the inalienable
rights of Ontario had been infringed on.
He concluded by expresaieg hu firm
belief that Liberalism would triumph at
