What is the first fluty of the Electorate? Is it not to hurl from power the present .Governiueut, Which has so abused the trust which was placed fit its hands? v If, as I belie 'e,'this is the first duty, then what party slaoirld be called -Upon to take its place? There are epolitical in th • field in the Riding of South Huron, 14tr. Black representing the Fanners' Party, under. the leadership of Mr. T. Al _Crerar, and the representative of the Liberal Party under Mr. Mackenzie Hing_. Many members of the Electorate; have had the privilege of hearing Mr. Crerar, and all have the opportunity be reading and 'studying his addresses delivered throughout the country. Have you heard one werd',from his lips which would lead you to believe that he is presenting anything but Liberal doctrine? Not one word. Has lie s la li offered the htest criticism of Liberal record or Liberal policy? Not one word. Then if, as 1 have said, the first duty of the Electorate is to defeat the Meighen Administration in order that the Government of Canada be free from, the shackles of "Big Interests." Why this division between the Farmers' Party and the Liberal Party? Standing, as they do, upon practically similar economic platforms,' why' should the fanners' political party thus seek to ;so divide tate forces of Liberalism, as .to seriously endanger the object they both have is view? Two main' reasons are advanced L -That while former Conservative farmers will vote to endorse and ad- vance Liberal principles under another name than that of, Liberalism, yet, they will not support Liberal principles if advocated under the Banner .of Liberalism. As intelligent citizens, I ask you to seriously consider what is. implied in sucli. an.argurnent? Does it not moan, simply, that a body of honest citizens are accused of being willing to mark their ballots only under a screen? ` Away with such camouflage? I do not believe • this, and on behalf of these honest minded xrien and worsen 1 resent any such insinuation. I believe the farmers of Canada and the fanners and citizens of this Prov- ince. -generally, have had sufficient experience of .duplicity in politics, and they have so often been hoodwinked and led astray by the powers that be, that they are now ready, if they can see the straightway, to go the straight way, and vote the straigkt way, regarde s opast political leaning. /1..—The .second reason, that, presuming upon the possibilities of an , ill-inforni'ed electorate, We are' told thereis little difference between the records of the two old political parties, and that the Liberal Party has never done its duty 'by the Canadian people., What are the facts? We do not -need to go ,back further than theinception of the Laurier Administsa tion to prove the falsity of such au accusation. That was the condition of Canada at that tune? History records the striking fact, that when in 1896 the Liberal Gov- eminent assumed tae reigns of power, it found business demoralized, the country almost in a condition of depopulation: Our own'people had been flowing :away from,us in thousands. Even one million native` born Canad- ians were to be found across -the lines. The confidence of business men had been greatly shaken by the action and inaction of the previous Government: There was no progress or ,development then being made. Trade was at a standstill. Our revenues were stationery; yet, under these- conditions, the previous Government had largely. increased our public expenditures and rolled up an 'additional $118,000,000.00 of debt; and what was worse— infinitely worse—the 'domestic peace of the country had been seriously threatened by an ill-advised measure of coercion, in respect to one of our Sister Provinces; and on top of all this it was found that treachery and anonymous letter writing had become the employment of the ministers of the Crown. Verily, these were darks days for Canada. To such a degree was this the case, , that you could 'sbarcely pick up a public :journal without reading something which should bring the blush a shame to the face of every true Canadian. Not only was this our condition at home, but we found Canada dishonored 'and degraded abroad: , • If you picked up some of the leading Conservative Journals of England we tight read that in Canada "Rascals out a•ofnce defraud the public in order to keep on good' terms with the rascals in office; and Rascals in office prostitute themselves, sacrifice their honor and forsake their trust in order to keep on good terms with the Rascals out a office." hat Is ToIe Canai. estiny? Shall it be that through the destruction of the Tariff as proposed by both Crerar and King, the development. of Canada is to conte under the domination of 't1 "United States, to be followed by gradual dual iinancial domination and as sconsequence, political domination? Is Canada's destiny to be that of a great free nation within the British Empire group. of Nations, developing her boundless resources of mine, river, water power, forest, and cultivatingher millions upon millions of acres of arable land? Is her develop- ment to surpass that of any other nation? Shall her manufacturing industries develop her minerais and raw materials into im- plements andgoods for the benefit and comfort of her'people and for foreign trade? 1D Shall she 'become a self-contained nation within the Empire, her great railways interchanging, the products of factory and farm among her own people, and her ships sailing every sea? Shall she maintain her integrityT within the Empire and protect her farms and factories against unfair competition front foreign countries? IF THIS IS TO BE CANADA'S DESTINY THEN CANADA NEEDS IVIEIGHEN. On December 6th,: Canada should once again protect her farina,• her factories: and her workmen against the unsound 'theory of Free Trade,; and should hold fast to her reasonable Protective Tariff, her nationalentity and her British connection. On December 6th Canada stauld declare with no uncertain voice that she will not tolerate the false of visionaries s and leaders which tend toward her economic destruction toward trade tlaenries visren. rre., group which the separation of her people and the weakening of the. ties that bind Canada to the British 'Empire. a l ' the outside world her fixed deter - Initiation Canada should demonstrate t,xzrnis„aat unmistakably t o to keep Canada for the Canadians. ceni ex 6th Canadas dcstiu i.s,at stake, On Ile lr y, The National Liberal and•Conservative Party Publicity Committee setvi:'YARL:`n"J.f+.."✓..th'4iLlik.^aR^_`."E!.^-1 tinder such conditions and at the instance and demand of an honest Canadian Electorate, regardless o£ past political leaning 'the Laurier Lib- eral Government assumed the, reins of power. Domestic quarrels, were at once allayed, and an honorable settlement of internal difference was effect ed. The. Customs Tariff was revised, and the duties on clothing, household goods and other necessary articles so reduced that it can be shown, re- sulted, during the Laurier regime, in a direct reduction to the Canadian people of 85,000,000 to 100,000,000 of dollars. It is a'well known fact that for every dollar in customs dutys which goes into the public treasury, three, or four dollars goes into the manufacturers' pockets, so that the saving in. this way over the standard of duties previously existing would reach up- wards of a saving to the people of $300,000,000 during the Liberal terns.' In natters of general administration, it is most gratifying to look back. and note the development which was everywhere apparent; the constant inrush of a desirable class of immigration, the millions; of wealth they brought with them; the settling of our agricultural lands; the further de -I velopnient'a our agricultural and mineral resources; the further4,develop ment of industry; the increased earnings of our railways; the increased volume in the business of our banking institutions, the great additional' savings of -our people, and the rapidly expanding trade of the country. These are all features' ih the Liberal record which, ''should strongly appeal:to the sense and pride -of every true Canadian citizen. And, in fact, the brightest page in the whole fifteen yars' Liberal record is the page which records the fact that, that: administration was ask- ed by the Canadian people to step down nad out because our great Leader staked his life upon a question of high principle ('the effecting' of a favor- able trade agreement: with the United States) and without even the breath of scandal, having been attached to its name. I ask you as an intelligent electorate, is not this a noble record upon which to stand? Use your reason and contrast it with the record of the present Govern- ment, for which the Liberal Party is in no responsible and culminating in the definite charges openly made—that Ministers of the Crown, members of the Cabinet, the sworn servant of the people—had tried to and did de- stroy the working a its own Board of Commerce, in order to enable some of its own friends, "the Big Interests," to continue to prey upon the vast body of our people. These charges have been openly made and investigation demanded for over a twelvemonth. Investigation. thus far has been refused, the only reply of the Govern- ment being to increase the sessional indemnity of members from $2500 to JOHN ESSERY; Centralia, Agent for. $44-00 per session,anct in order to fortify itself against the growing disfavor Ilsborne and Biddulph. of its own followers on the floor of Parliament.
