Warner, then, is a leading and honored resident of Rochester, not only, but a prominent and influential citizen of thUnited States. On sever- al occasions chosenbyhis partyas it National deligate to nominate a Presi- dent of the Republic, he has been a member of the Republican State Com- mittee and of its Executive Committee He is a member of the American Testit ution for the Advancement of Science; President of the Rogester Chamber of Commerce; a successful and . upright business man. He has given .array fortunes in charities.

Union, Unrestricted ..Reel- procity, Political L"nion. and Annex- ation, all such hobbiesbeing severely denounced -a fact which receivedthe unanimous approval o! the audience But the subject most impressed An tiro members was that one and all should give their earnest attention to the ze vision of the voters' has for the Domin- ion arid Local elections; that they should use every endeavor to leave no man eligible to vote off their respect- ive fiats In each division tonin;; under their control. Mr.. T. M. Bowman, barrister, Lucan, s appointed. solicitor to the Asseel- on for the ensuing year. A vote el thanks to Mr. Coughlin, 31. P., wag moved by Dr. Hollins, and seconded by Mr. A. Robinson, of MacGillivray, fora his courtesy and promptitude in attend- ing to all the business entrusted 'to hips at the Capital during the several Par liamentatry sessions which lie had at- tended. These two resolutions were thea submitted to the meeting, and. carriei u3lianiIllously:- 3foved by J. A. Rollins. seconded by W. H, Hutohina, and resolved, that the Liberal -Can servative association of North Middlesex,;in convention assembled. desires to express approval of the general course of the present. Dominion Cabinet since last election. We aro happy to find that in the matter of the fisherydispute the Cabinet had sufficient backbone to be neither cajoled by Battery or frightened by bluster, and also happy to find that on the trade questions of the day they still stand on the old platform, that has been so universally successful, and resisting all attempts to mislead the electorate. That while willing to trade with the United State. in a fair and equitable way, they resist alt attempts to place our entire revenue. trade and freightage in the hands of a foreign. country. Moved by Henry Eilher, seconded by R.S. Hodgins, and resolved that this Association of the North Riding a the county of Middle- sex beartly concur with the actions of Mr Meredith and the loyal Opposition in the Local Legislature in their actions during the present session in exposing the present ltq- norlicense system and t1b�e present school system, considering that in a British Prov- ince like Ontario no public school should re- ceive any fund. from the Treasurer of this Province unless the English language is taught therein. This association condemns the action of the Local Legislature in the present system in filling the registrarshipp.a ehrievalties and other public offices with worn-out political hacks, when the total burden of the salary has to be borne directly by the people, who should have the appoint- ment of such officials, and heartily anppraw of Mr. Meredith and the local Oppesition'a action is these measures. The meeting also passed a vote of thanks to the president and secretary for the .very efficient manner in which they performed their duties during the year. The proceedings were brought to a. close by singing "God Save the Queen; three cheers for Fier Majesty the Governor-General, Sir Jobn Macdonald, air. Meredith and Mc. Coughlin. Sale Register.
