atall'AICIT LIES NAMED DT
The man who called out "Sourkrout" wishes now that he had
stayed at home, Bishop and McLean compelled to retract
and won't likely repeat their Emigration Agent
or Returning Meer Fables,
Tuesday the 22nd inst., was a busy
clay for our politicians. On that day
the electors of South Huron met iu
Refloat to nominate caudidates for the
election now pending to the Leg,isla-
tive Assembly and Irons $ o'elock aan.,
until the hour of nornivation the roads
leadieg from. the North, South, East
and West into the progressive and
beautiful village of Heiman, were
alive with electors riding, driving and
walking to the meetiug.
Never in any former contest in this
Riding has so keen an interest been
taken by the publie in the affairs of
Provincial Liovernmeut, aud never be-
fore were gathered at our nomination
meeting so many of the electors.
A. very noticeable and pleasing feat
urs of the gathering was the preseuce
of the young MOO who are evincing
great interest in the public, discussions
and whose influence acid votes will be
a potent factor in the pending contest,
Mr. Eilber is himself one of the young
men, and it is quite apparent that the
young voters have given their sympa-
thies and wilt give their votes for their
young friend whom they familiarly
call and kuow as " Harry " Eilber, .As
it was natural to expect, both parties
put on their best front for the nomina
tion, aud large forces were paraded
for Mr. Eilber and Mr. McLean re.
spectively. Upon the visages of the
older veterans was written the grim-
mest determinations to do or die.
We noticed in the ranks of the Eil-
ber contingent the familiar faces of
such old war horses as James Petty,
John .tiiddletou, John Torrance, Thos
'Jaye , Juhn Beacom, R. Leathorne,
R.Newell and many others, while in
the ranks of Mr. McLean, stood his old
and turned soldiers, Robert Winters, D.
D. Wilson, Dick, Wm. Lewis, Divis
ion Court Clerk, John Kalbfieisch, A.
Bishop and as many others.
The first evidence of fun that was to
follow occurred when an attempt was
made by the supporters of the respec-
tive candidates to capture all the seats
in the hall. After considerable skir
mishing for benches, which was indulg
ed in good naturedly, every available
seat in the hall was filled and almost
every inch of available standing room
was occupied, so large had the assembly
become. Notwithstanding that all the
available apace in the hall was utilized
there must, have been upwards of 600
people who were nimble to get inside.
The proceedings proper at the nomi-
nation began at 12 o'clock (noon), when
Returning Officer, Kibler, read the writ
and announced the hour for receiving
nominations open.
Mr. Edmund Ziller acted as clerk for
the Returning Officer and Mr. A. Bish-
op nominated Mr. M. Y. McLean. .
Mr. John Kalbfieisch seconded Mr.
McLean's nomination. Immediately
thereafter Mr. Torrance nominated Mr.
Henry Eilber.
Mr. John Middleton seconded Mr.
Eilber's nomination. ,
The hour for nominations having
elapsed, Mr. Kibler granted a poll and
the 1st of March, (next Tuesday) will
decide whether Mr. Henry Eilber or Mr.
M. Y. McLean will represent South
Huron.
When the nomination was closed it
was Suggested that the meeting be de-
clared a public meeting and a program
of addresses by tbe candidates and their
friends adopted. This was agreed up-
on and Mr. Kibler was voted into the
chair. Mr, A. I3ishop was the first
speaker. Something had evidently
riled the old gentleman and he was in
fighting humor from the start. It was
stated by some person that Mr. Bishop
received information the morning of
the nomination of the fact that his
chances the Exeter postoffice were
slim. This is likely what bothered him
After frothing and fuming about the
Ha Township Insurance Company and
the Laurier Government's allowance to
Eilber for Ins services in connection
with the Returning Officerahip, the old
gentleman wandered beyond his depth
and time was called by the chairman,
but Mr. Bishop refused to give place to
the next speaker, until he rotted it was
either quit or be carried out anti he
very wisely sat down, but in a terrible
passion.
;Mr. John Torrance was the next
speaker and after putting Mr. Bishop
right in the Insurance matter and be-
speaking. success and support for Mr.
Either, retired.
Mr. J. Kablfielsch, the next speaker,
did not wish to say anything except
that he would like to see Mr. McLean
elected, Mr, Kalbfieisch was anxious
to see Mr. McLean beaten in 1894 but
since then Mr. Kalbfleisch has been mol-
lified though he did not say how.
Mr. John Middleton, of Goderich
Township was the next speaker. He
congratulated the village of Heusall
and the visiting electors upon the very
satisfactory manner the nomination
proceeding, and the meeting were be -
conducted.
Mr. M Y McLean was the next speak-
er and was heartily applauded when
he stepped upon the platform. Mr Mc-
Lean, after a few preliminary remarks
eu which he did not forget to say that
he and his opponent were very moral
men and that Mr. Eilber was a young
man of unblemished personal and busi-
ness character. Mr. McLean is noth-
ing if he is not a very ardent admirer
of Mr. McLean and he does like to
sound his own trumpet. Instead of ad-
dressing himself to the Provincial poli-
tics he discussed Township Fire Insur-
ance Companies until, as one of the au
dience said, the meeting became more
like a joint meeting of the board of the
Hay Township Fire Insurance Co e, and
the Usborne Township Fire Insurance
Co. Mr. McLean very unwisely pre
sumed to discuss insurance with Mr.
Eilber and when he had been compelled
to retract statement after statement he
dropped the subject. Mr. McLean then
told the old, old story, of the purity and
economy of the Hardy Government and
with that gall and assurance which is
assumed by all the defenders of that
government defied Mr. Either to put his
finger on one dollar which this saintly
government had ever spent corruptly.
Mr. McLean told Hardy's story of the
milk man and made a strong and earn-
est appeal that Reformers should stick
to him in this the hardest trial of his
political existence. Mr. McLean asked
his Reform friends to stick to their par-
ty regardless of their predictions for
Mr. Eilber and having protected this
"Yellow dog" principle, he closed,
having spoken three quarters of an
lhionrus4rrt'hen spoke one half hour each both
. P. H. Bartlett and Mr. R.H. Col -
made good campaign speeches.
Mr. Henry Either received an ovation
when his name was called. The build-
ing fairly shook as peel after peel, cheer
upon cheer, rent the air. Mr, Eilber has
his personal friends in every part of
the Riding. His friends are legion and
of both stripes of politics. Electors who
had grown tired and weary listening.
to the other speakers gathered therp
selves together and were all attention,
and all through the audience ran the
whisper "He is a daisy" and the meet.
ing that had become monotonous seem-
ed to brighten up as Mr Eilber stepped
forward ' to address the electors. Mr.
Eilber deprecated the personal matters
which Mt, Bishop (who Mr. Eilber said
should know better) and Mr. McLean
had &Ported into the discussion. He
I .
(Eilbere attended the meeting to dis-
cuss ebb questions pertinent and relat-
ing to he administration of lent provin-
i
cial tiff irs and charged Mr. McLean and
Ma Bis "Op with the old red herring act..
He (Enberl did not propose, however,
to allow; Mr Bishop, Mr. McLean or
any person else to misrepresent him,
either ittAit private or official catiac
ity, aniVtor about ten minutes ad -
p natt cnargeci Mr.
Eilber with being reapeasible., in
some way that no person eyer could
rightly understand item Mr Bishop's
statement of the facts for the failure
of Mr. Bishop, when member for this
Riding, to procure an extension of
the term of insurance. Mr, Eilber
produced a copy of a letter writteu
by him to Mr. Bishop aud showing it
to him asked him if he received
the letter Qriginal. After getting
red, white and bine Mr. Bishop frank
ly admitted that he had received the
letter. Mr. Either thee read the letter
in which he had himself urged upon
Mr. Bishop to work for and if possible
seeitre the exteuded term. Mr Eilber
id he could only account fax Mr.
shop's failure in the matter by his
predispositiou to sleep when he re-
presented thia Ridiug in the House.
Air. Eilber theu debit with Mt. Melseau's
Returning Officer's " rag baby " and
before Mr. Eilber finished with bitn
and his baby, Mr. McLean must have
frequently and ferveptly prayed that
he had never seen the brat.
When Mr. Eilber had made Meesrs.
Bishop and McLean eat leak after leak
he addressed himself to the financial af-
fairs of the Province and, as Mr elcIsean
practically admitted, he so mystified Mr
McLean with the enormity of the sins of
omission and commission, blas wasteful
penditure and extravagant official-
dom of the great and good government
of Mr. Hardy that he was simply dub
found. aud could say uothing in re.
ply. Through the Government MAIM)
Prisons Asylums, Agricultural College
and through every public institution of
the Province Mr. Either carried his aud-
ience and as he scored point after point,
exhibiting and exposing not only ex-
travagant expeuditures in every
branch and department but proving
the utter unworthiness and hollowness
aud hypocrisy of Mr. MeLean's loud
sounding profession that there was no
waste, extravagance or criminality.
Mr. Eilber declared that ho was not as
Mr. McLean bad represented him, op-
posed to paying efficient officea suffi.
dent salary. He (Either) wants to pay
every office a fair day's pay for a fair
day's work and when be hired a man
for $2.000 a year ho objected to pay
him $10,000 as the Ontario Government
was doing. Mr. Eilber disclosed the
rottenness of the Government's man
agement of the affairs of the Guelph
Model Farrn and promised if elected to
insist on the affairs of the latter institu
tion being placed upon a sound busi-
ness basis.
Mr. Either devoted considerable time
to the discussion of our Educational
system. Mr, McLean and his support-
ers claimed that it cost but 19- cents
per year to supply the necessary school
books for each child in their Public
school course. Mr. Eilber met this
ridiculous statement by referring Mr.
McLean to any school boy 10 years old,
or better to any parent having child-
ren attending school. Mr. Eilber Con-
demned the System of filling our child-
ren's heads with theoretical nonsense
instead of giying them a good common-
sense, useful education.
Mr. Eilber declared strongly for an
audit of our finances and advanced
many suggestions for such an audit
which met with the approval of all
present.
While Mr. Eilber was discussing the
many falsifications and discrepancies in
the public aceeuuts of the Province, he
referred to a lump item of $600.00 for
table allowances paid to an official, who
was in receipt of a salary of some $2000.
Mr. Eilber asked the audience what
they thought these table allowances
might be, when some of Mr McLean's
supporters called out " Sourkrout."
The German element of the audience
resented the insulting interruptiou, and
but for Mr. Eilber's tact a rather un-
pleasant termination of the otherwise
pleasant meeting would have occurred.
Mr. Eilber treated the matter as a joke,
and asked his German friends to treat
the matter in the same way. It was at
this point that Mr. Eilber exhibited his
excelient personal qualities and did
himself special credit. He said that he
had endeavored in this contest, to fight
a fair fight without any appeal to race
or creed and he would bo sorry, if now,
at the close of the campaign, anything
should be said or done to bring about
any enmity or any unfriendliness be-
tween one class of electors and another.
It's true, Mr. Eilber said, my father has
a strain of the German blood flowing
through his vions and he was, he said,
proud of the fact, but he was prouder
still of the fact, that he, (Mr Either)
was a Canadian and a Britisher and
he believed that all classes and all
creeds could, and should live in peace,
harmony and goodwill cuewith the
other. NO person loves Britain, Brit
ain's Queen and Canada, more than I
do declared, Mr. Eilber, and as he cies
ed one of the most able addresses ever
delivered in this country, the vast aud-
ience, which had become thrilled and
electrified with hie patriotic peroration,
rose and cheered themeelves hoarse for
the Queen, Mr. Either and Whitney.

broke up with cheers for the chairman,
for Either and a better management of

tors of South Huron was held in Smith's
Hall here on Monday night last in the
interest of Mr. H. Eilber, Conservative
candidate. Quite a number of ladies
graced the chairs by their presence and
seemed to take a deep interest in the
discussions. Mr. John Neil was elect-
ed to the chair and made a short and
appropriate introductory address. A.
Q. Bobier, of Exeter, followed in a short
but lame speech in the defence of the
Hardy Ross government and as re-
marked by one of the speakers his "little
piece" was poorly said. Dr. Rollins, of
Exeter, was then called who dealt at
some length on facts and figures, show-
ing conclusively that twenty-seven
years of Reform government was not
the best thing for the country and that
it was high time for a change. His
ad-
dress was very enthusiasticaly received.

ment at some length but the audience,

financial question in particular and se.

address was constantly interrupted by
bursts of applause from the delighted
audience. After a vote of thanks to the
chairman, the meeting broke up with
cheers for the Queen, Harry Eilber and
