Queries.
Has there ever been a Liberal Goen
eminent in Canada, federal or provin-
cial. thee has ourtailed expenditure, or

Has there ever been a Liberal Gov-

that has not added to the expenditure,
orraised the taxes, or increased the
public debt?
If there has never been a Liberal
Government in Canada that curtailed
expenditure, or lowered taxation, or
reduced the public debt; and if every
Liberal Government in 'Canada has
increased the debt—what reason is
there to believe that the party would,
if in. power, do any better at Ottawa

These are the Liberals who voted
against a straight resolution to abolish
Got ernment House—a resolution that
would haye meant a saving of $25,000
a year. We find M. Y. McLean's
name among the number. and if we
mistake not, this gentleman said upon
the puttforrn in South Huron that he
was in favor of abolishing Government
House. In fact he was in favor of
everything and anything that Mr. Weis -
miller was. If therewas one specific
reform that people demanded in the
lase Provincial election it was that
Government House be abolished and
$25,000 a year saved to the public
treasury. In refusing to comply with
this demand the new Legislature has
proved false to the trust reposed in it
by the Province. ,

Progress Under Protection
At the Galt meeting Hon. Mr. Foster
reproduced some truths relating to the
progress of Canada under the protective
tariff which are pertinent for the con-
sideration of these pessimists who im-
agine that the country has gone back-
ward in consequence, as Sir Richard
Cartwright puts it, of the "curse and.
ba ,e of the tariff."
Mr. Foster said there were two
methods of arriving at the truth :—
First, and appeai to undoubted facts ,
here in our own country; aud, second,
a comparison ef this country with other
countries under the same or a different
policy. As to the undoubted facts, the
National Policy had been before the
people ever since 1879. What was the
history of the development of business
of this country from 1878 to 1893? They
could easily satisfy themselves upon
bhis point. There were two great
divisions of national life, so to speak,
so far as trade and business were con-
cerned. One they might call the pro-
duoing put, the other the distributing
part. 'Without these no state could
carry on businees. If a emintry were
simply a producer without being a dis-
tributor, or simply a distributor without
fit produeing powers, and their
iltiences being equal, it could never be
so prosperous or so thoroughly progres-
sive at a counbry that had both these
forms of life interchaimeable with each
other
Let them take the trade index of
distribution iri the country from 1878 to
1893, What were the filets? The exe
ports of Canaele in 1879 were seventy
one millions a dollars. Itt 1893 thy
had risen to one hundred add eighteen
minions, an increase of 60 per dont,
under the Netional
Tho itoporta front feteign countries
were also an index of the prosperity
and life of a cannery, The imports in.
1879 were eighty-one millions of dollars,
in 1893 they were one hundred and
tiventy.niae million being an increase
of 60 per (mut. in the same period,
Taking the imports and exports bo-
gether ia 1878, we didis business with
foreign countriee of one hundred awl
fifty three millions, whilst in 1893 we
did a business of $2,17,000,000 an in-
crease of 66 per cent.
There was another index of the
dietribution a trade, namely, the
carriers—the ships which frequented
our ports, and the railways whit% con
veyed produces from one part of the
country to another. If they took tbe
sea going tonnage alone, they would
find that in 187& there were six and a
half millions of tone entered and cleared
from Canada. In 1893 there were tea
and. a half millions of tons, an increase
of 60 per cent. In the coasting trade
the tonnage which entered and cleared
in 1878 was eleven millions of tons. en
1893 it had increased to twenty four
and is half millions, an increase ef 110
per cent. in that period. As to the in-
land water Winne, in 1878 there were
five millions of tons entered and cleared
on the inland water; in 1893 that had
increased to eight millions of tons, an
increase of 60 per -cent,
Then with regard to railroads, there
were in 1879 some 6,489 miles of road;
in 1893 that had increased to 15,003
utiles, an increase of 120 per cent.
Li 1878 the railroads carried six and
a half millions of passengers, but in
1893 they had transported thirteen and
a half millions, an inorease of 109e, per
cent.

The system of buying supplies for
public institutions without tender

every year. Messrs. Caven, Alcheaugh-
ton and McNeil, all Patrons, voted in
favor of the retention of this system,
Its so doing they voted directly against

which calls for "rigideconomy in every

Worth, tine famOus dressmaker, of

"Worth gowns" have been "the proper

France and America for many years.
Worth was an Englishman, born in.
Lincolnshire, and leitened his business
when in the employ of Swan & Edgar,
a well.knosvn firm in London. He has
made gowns for the :Empress Etigeeie
and the Empress of Russia but never
for Queen Victoria, and has received
as much as $24,000 for one dress --but
the old lace it was trimmed with cost
him most of the money.

The Liberal organs should take John
McMillan, Liberal M. P. for South
Huron, to task as one of the promoters
of the iniquitous scheme of the Govern-
ment togive Canadian butter a better
atatus on the English market. Mr,
McMillan seconded a resolution advis-
ing the Government to such action,
wbich was adopted by the Commons
Committee on Agriculture, in the
session of 1894. Really is it not a
wretched attitude in a supposed leader
of opinion, to attack as cornme and vile
what mernbera of its own party helped
to originate and which unprejudiced
persons everywhere agree is, a most
laudable move?

Liberals talk to suit every Province,
but every Province does not vote to suit
Liberals. Canada's history in the
lifetime of the Parliament now living
illustrates the difference between the
two parties. Once the cry was that the
Conservatives won because of Sir
John. Sir John died, and the party
under Abbott- gained Ontario constit-
uencies which it never carried under
Macdonald. Then Sir John Abbott
died, and his successor, Sir John
Thompson, was said to be the sole and
only secret of Conservative greaeness.
Now, unfortunately, Sir John Thomp-
son is gone, but the party which he
led is still strong and secure in the
national faith, in the Conservative
policy and the national distmst of the
Liberals.

Found Guilty.
ST. THOMAS, March. 15.—At 8
o'cloele this morning, or an hour and
a half before the opening of the
court the space in front a the
entrance door to the Court, Home
was twowded with, a multitude of
excited men and women and children
struggling to obtain an entrance to
hear the address of counsel for the
defense and (gown, and the judge's
charge to the jury in the Hendon
abott murder trial. When tlie outer
doors were opened at 9 o'elock t
scene was witnessed white), does
little credit to any civilized cciniumn-
ity. Men, -women and children
mingled. witthe men in their frantic
efforts to reach the court room.
Directly the prisoners were plaoed
in the box they were surrounded. by
a group of relatives and intimate
friends, principally women, dressed
in black, and. ell weeping tarofusely,
Both prisoners were strongly affected
by the scene, the elder one. bowing
his head, and the younger one crying
bitterly.
About 10 o'clock Norman McDon-
ald, the prisoners' counsel, conamenc-
nd his address to the jury, in is calm,
clear, deeply -earnest voice. He first
went over the evidence sustaining
the alibi iu favor of Hendershot%
and scathingly denounced the
attempts of the witnesses, some of
them near relatives of the prisoner,
to ruin the reputation, and .perhaps
tone away the life of an umocent
num by eepeating conversations
which had. occurred months ago, and
detailing statements which the
prisoner may have made in
thoughtless or joking manner, and
had no relation to the case before
them. He attempted to show thab
a clear case of alibi had been proven
by the defence. As to the case of
Welter, he said there was no motive
upon Welter's part to take away the
life of his young friend. and relative.
The alleged young
on. Hendee-
shott's part, he said, did not apply to
Welter, and the jure- could not con-
vict one prisoner and free the other,
the two having been indicted to-
gether. He reminded the. jury of
the terrible responsibility that rested
upon them, stating that as the lives
ot the two men himg upon their
.verdict, groat caution was necessary
in coming at a decision. Referring
to the life insurance, Mr. 11.1cDonald
said: "To whom was the policy
upon the deceased man made pay-
able? Edith Welter. And at whose
suggestion was it made payabe to
John Hendershott until the young
couple were 'minted ? The agent of
the life insurance company.'
Continuing, he said. the trip taken
by Hendersb.ott and his daughter on
the fatal Dec. 14th had been long
contemplated, and. was to fulfill en-
gagements made months previously.
The Crown had failed in attempts to
sheer Hendershott's poverty. Hen-
dershott was well -to -de. Money
could not have been the motive in
his case for the commission ot such
a terrible crime.
Mr. McDonald closed hisaddress at
12 o'clock, after speaking over two
hours, and is considered -ione of the
ablest ever given in this court room.
Mr. Oster commenced his address
for the Crown at 12.30, and spoke for
half an hour, until the hour for ad-
journment for lunch. He resumed
at LEO.
MR. OSLER'S ADDRESS.*
ST.. THOMAS,. Morclaa,15.--hhfe.
Osier, on rising to address the jnier,
said. they were not there to consider
the policy of capital punishment.
They were there to do justice to the
prisoners and nothing more. Com-
passion or mercy had no place there.
He might reply to his learned friend's
plea for compassion for the prisoners
by a similar appeal for the . young
man who was cut off in the morning
of life, the crown claims, by the
hands of the prisoners at the bar.
In regard to the evidence being
merely circumstantial, be said tbat
was the only kind of testimony upon
which the schenaing, deliberate mur-
derer could be convicted, and he
believed it te be the best class of
evidence. If there were no convict-
ions upon circumstantial eviden.ce
then the worst class of murderers
would, always e-scape the penalty of
their crimes. He reviewed the evi-
dence at length in an eloquent and
convincing address of two hours and
a hail duration.
THE JUDGE SUMS UP.
His Lordship's charge to the jury
occupied about two hours, and was
a thorough summing up of all the
evidence. adduced. He cautioned
the jury upon many points on which
there was room for doubt. His
charge was considered favorable to
the prisoners.
THE VERDICT.
The case was given to the jury- at
5:45, and the court adjourned until 0
o'clock. At that hour the court
room was jammed and hundreds
were standing outside the court
house.
The jury came in at 10:05. Court
Clerk elcLaws asked them if they
had come to a verdict. The foreman
said, "Yes," and. then the clerk asked
for the verdict.
"Guilty," said the foreman, "for
both men."
THRILLING SCENE.
As soon as the verdict was given
the spectators began to rise and a
thrilling scene followed. The daugh-
ter of tb.e prisoner Hendershott gave
way to violent grief and the, con-
stables were kept busy trying to
restore order,
His Lordship asked the prisoners
if they had anything to say. They
both replied in the negative. Re
then asked them to stand up that
sentence might be passed upon them.
Trog SENTENCE.
The two men rose to their fee%
deathly pale. Chief Justice Meredith
then sentenced them to be hanged
on June 18 next,
The prisoners were immediately
led awayto their cells amid the
heart-rending ories of their relatives.
It is said that their counsel will at
once apply for a new trial.
Wierneart's CONFESSION,
luta been learned that the pros
eetition is, or considers itselt to be,
at length in possession of all the
fads attending the killingof William
Henry 1sdershottt on Friday,
December 14th last, The facts have
1)0011 obtellted, front 11, MAD to whom
young Weltee confessed: the whole
crime, and. it is given to the Crown
on voudition that Ito ia not brought
into the -Witness box. This condition,
accordingly, renders it impossible
for the Crown at this court to bring
the facts out it
secins front this' information
that young Hendershoth was murder-
ed in -the most cold-blooded manner,
aud the first weenie; was made on
him at a .disadvantage. The murder
was committed itt the mottling,
before John Henclershott left for
Eden, and he was present and took
part in doing the unsuspecting young
fellow to death. Yomig Hendershott
was on his hands and knees when.
the first blow was struck. He had
knelt down to drink out of the pool
in the woods, in which subsequent to
the murder the axe and, the hands of
his slayers were washed, • .
Just when he placed his lips to the
water he received the blow from the
tnne on *the right temple. He was
not sttunted, but rose and attempted
to run. Th.e menehaveng begun their
bloody work, followed it up. They
went after their victim, and finally
one of .the men grabbed hen by the
wrists, while the other struck at him
again and again with - the axe. One
other fatal blow was delivered,
namely, that on the back of the
skull, but the remaining blows were
weak and. ineffectual, owing to the
horror, probably, which had seized
upon the man who wielded. the
weapon.
When the deed of blood was done
the body was taken`and placed where
the tree which figured in the case
was expected. - by- the Men to fall
when cut, for it had not yet been
chopped down. Owing, however,. to
the fact that the tree leaned,and was
rotten at the center, it fell otherwise
than as theerethought it would, and
ib ha,d to be removed to where it was
when found by those to whom
Welter first brought the news. The
place where it was pet at first was
where the -crotch of the tree fell, and
where a large pool of blood was
found.
After having accomplished the
deed to their satisfaction they .wash-
ed themselves and the axe m the
pool, and hid the instrtunent with
which they had murdered their
victim between the bark and the
wood. of the hollow log. The arrange-
ments were tben made for Hendee-
shott's trip to Eden, for the sending
of the telegram to him there convey-
ing the news that his nephew had
been killed by the falling of the tree,

inente and all the subsequent details.
Our Agricultural Society.
That the Stephen. & Usborne agri-
cultural society _has' ha the past
enjoyed a prosperous and profitable
career is due, no doubt, to the fact
that until recently' the affairs of the
Association were conducted so that
the. greatest • poisibleehbenefit might
be secured to the greatest possible
number. It is to be regretted • that
for the past two or three years com-
plaint is heard on all sides that
the management of the Association
has been and is being controlled by
certain individuals who are manip-
ulating every transaction for then.
own benefit. Abontethe time of the
annual meeting for the election of
officers, you can see these wire
pullers scurrying around town for
their heelers, and. I have seen some
peculiar looking agriculturists at
this meeting veting as instructed.
Three years ago I asked one of the
directors if the fair ground would
be leased, as usual, to the highest
bidder and was informed that it
would. The ground was advertised
to be leased by public auction and I
deterinined to become a bidder, but
before the sale I was informed that
an attempt was being made to side
track me by some one fixing the
President. I at onco caused a notice
to be served upon the President be-
fore he could see any of the priniloged
manipulators; notifying him that he
was not to lease the grounds private-
ly, that I would pay. him more for
the ground than any clique haA
offered him, but preferred to have
• the matter decided openly and by
public auction. These privileged
persons, however, got hold. of the
President and. actually prevailed (?)
upon him to consent to a lease to
them at $80, whereas, had it gone to
public auction, 1 was prepared, if
necessary, to go as, high as $150, a
clear loss to the Association of $70.
Two years ago the ground went to
public auction, and these same per-
sons attended but had not the back-
bone to go higher than $100, ab
which figure it wasknocke,c1 clown
to ine, much to their chagrin and
annoyance. Having lost their grip
on the Association, we find these
sante persons promulgating, an
Association which they club the
"Exeter Tureplub," into which many
of our citizens have been unwarily
drawn. The object of this club, so
far as I have been abls to discernas to
provide sport by way of horse -racing
for a clay and rob the town of all the
money our good citizens see fit to
contribute to the club. This turf
club has taken possession of our
agriculbural society and we find that
the old manipulators are at the head
again, that virtually they control
the agricultural society in a way that
the old. league may be profited. lb
may be interesting to the patrons of
ths agricultural society to know that
last year the directors of the society
leased the race .course to the turf
club for $25, although they ha.cl an
offer of $45 from one of our chimes,
and I would have even given .$75.
Only the other day as the fair
grounds were adverbised to be leased
by public auction and that when
offered to the public by auction' the
terms of the lease were fixedand
cooked tip beteveen the Agricultural
society directors and the officers of
the turf club so that any person
leasing the ground would be Obliged
to sublet; to the turf club at a cer-
tain fleet. This, of course, preclud-
ecl pub= competition, as any person
renting the ground would. expect, to
make any Use of it he or they saw
fib. I was prepared, to pay $175 for
the ground. this year if it was Ieased
upon the usual terrhsi and would
have given, and will yet give $75 for
the track. The resale; was thee; the
grounds were leased to the turf -
club at $100, is cheat loss to the
agricultural society of $75. This,
Itowcwer, is only one instance of the
robbery and. jobberyewhieli the agri-
cultural soeiety is being subjeoted to
by certain citizens who care not
what the societeeloses so long as they
secure the intender. The year I
leased the grounds they were thrown
open to the public, I permitted
the horsemento go in on the traokevith
their horses free of charge. A turn
style was constructed to admit any
persons desiring to use the grounds
for recreation or sport. That year
the track was he better condition than
it was before or has been since. Yet,
members of the agricultural society
who aremembers of the turf club have
actually asked me, to allow the
ground to go to the turf chilewith-
out opposition. This is honest
management of our society's affairs,
is it nob? This matter requires pub-
lic discussion and when I have heard
frozu the other side I may relate
some further rather interesting facts
for the patrons. Yours Truly,

Our •Delett Taxes and what We
have for them.
"I am answering the question as to
the deleterious effect of the National
Policy during the Jest 16 years. But
our opponents say "besidenll that there
is a very importarte branch of the
:subject which you have not mentioned.
What about the expenditure, what
about the debt, what about the taxat-
ion of the country?" The expenditures
of Canada from 1878 to 1893 have been
large. It Wai necessary that they
should be large. It was part of the
Liberal Conservative policy that they
should be large. • Why? In 1878 what
was before us? A large country with
what we believed to be immense re-
sources for development; Provinces
spread 3,000 miles apart with no means
of inter -communication, and, just as
veins and arteries are necessary to carry
the blood from the heart to the extrem-
ities and back again, and keep the life
mechanism going, so for a country's its
veins and arteries of communication
must be opened to every part of the
lifeblood of the country. ita commerce
have free course to run to and fro and
vivify the whole body. We believed
that this country had elements of pros-
perity, had resources which were
worthy of a strong effort We discount-
ed the future, we borrowed money, we
built the railway, we made Canada is
country fit to stand alongside of any
other modern country in the race of
competition. We made a country that
our own people should be proud to stay
in, and a country to which other people
might be willing to come and cast their
lot with us. The time for doing busi-
ness on a back street was passed in 1878.
We had been doing that long enough,
and if we are going to do business with.
other countries we must do business on
is front street, and put in plate glass
windows. We built railweys and canals
and opened up 'steamship lines, and we
mortgaged the future to is certain ex-
tent, and any other poliey would have
kept Canada back and made it a back
number among the countries of the
world. In doing that we borrowed
money, but the expenditures when
made, taking into account the earnings
of the country and the expenditures
out of earnings, only amounted in the
end to $38,000,000, and when eight
years ago we came up to $36,000,000
we called a halt, and f sr the last 'eight
years our expenditure has been about
at the even figares, $36,000,000 or $36,-
500,000. W hat about the debt oE the
country? It is to -day $246,000,0007.
We have it with canals, we have it with
railways, we have it with public im-
provements, which make our country
modern and give life to it, and what
'happens? In a measure the public debt
la increased; you have to pay every
year to carry the debt. The interest
that you pay today to carry (bit debt is
