McKay and McLennan Speak at Exeter To to Crowded Open House aad a Number la the Tows Hall. Exeter hatd a second large political meeting last week -Gamey and Silber on Wednesday night, and McKay and McLennan on Friday night. The first weedier, that of Wednesday night. was the lasgest winter political meet- ing ever held in the village. On that occ.aeiou both the Opera House and the Town Hall were crowded and many were turned away. Mesas Gain- ey and Either spoke in both rooms and give excellent addresses. Both gen- tlemen held their audiences well and it bus been currently remarked since by both Conservatives and Reformers that Mr. Gamey is one of the best po- litical speakers in the country and ab- solutely fair and above board in his arguments, which have succeeded in convincing all that there was much more of truth in the story with which his name Is connected, than they had believed prior to his appearance here. On Friday night the meeting to hear Hon. A. G. McKay, Minister of Crown Lands, and Rev. McLennan, the Liber. al candidate in the Riding was also well attended, and necessitated the use of the Town Hall as well, where between fifty and seventy-five heard the speakers for a short time. Shortly after eight o'clock Mr. J. G. Stanbur'y, President of the South Hu- ron Liberal Association, took the chair in the Opera House and after a brief address introduced the Liberal candi- date in the riding, Rev. M. C. McLen- nan, pastor of the Presbyterian church at Kippen. Mr. McLennan was hear- tily applauded on taking the platform and spoke for nearly an hour, saying that he was inspired by the largegath- ering; that he was going to be elected, becetise he believed the ladies were on his side; that Mrs. McLennan was a full-blooded German and therefore he would get every German vote; that he did not treat to cigars; that he was not an independent prohibitionist; that he did not receive $1000 to contest the election; that he would show that the election could be tun without whiskey or money; that the Reform party should vole for the Reform pithy can- didate even if it were a yellow dog; that there wasn't a -Tory in Huron county whom he trusted to be his financial agent; and fluidly wound up by a fierce attock on Garvey. The extravagance and unusual na- ture of some of Mr. McLennar►'s state- ments provoked several interruptions from persons in the audience who wished to correct him and who claim- ed it was unfair for Mr. McLennan to attack Mr. Gamey, when Mr. Gamey had not attacked him. Mrs. McLennan explained that this wait his maiden political speech and that he would improve. At the same time he regretted that it was not thought proper for ladies to speak, be- cause, he said, Mrs. McLennan was as good a speaker as be was. Mr.McKay was tben called upon and given a good reception. For nearly two hours be spoke and was atten- tively listened to. Mr. McKay is a finished speaker, possesses a fine voice and a pleasing and engaging manner on the platform. Ho urea to a great extent the argumentive style in speak- ing and while affecting to discuss both sides of a question. tie naturally makes the one much the sti ringer of the two, and no doubt satisfies the person who is not familiar with the topic and floes not went more than itsuperflcial view. Ilis speech throughout was a typical !political speech, and so very different trout that of the first speaker that it tuns it relief to the audience, who had conte to hear political questions die- cisae d, and all no tuttta't' what of poli- tical complexion enjoyed the address. Mr. M''Kay praised the Government for its auLuinistintire, record for what it had done with regard to farming and crown lands. He explained the $250- $1111(0 timber deal by soying the pur- chaser at the latter price needed the land as a right of way, and to keep his hands employed. ile claimed that the action of the Government in regard to g(ratrantee the payment of the wages at the Son was good work clone. The two -cent 11 mile rate was condemned because the three -cent rate did not pray the companies and that if the passen- ger rate were decreased the freight rate must be increased. The speakerspent some time in de- nunciation of Whitney, Nesbitt and Gamey. The meeting closed with the usual cheers.
