On Thursday evening of het week
rho two candidates, Dr. Macdonald
old Thos. farrow, addressed the
elretors. Alex. McKay was elected
to preeido as ohairman. Dr. Mac-
dt nnld made the opening speech
and went over parliamentary affairs
vete, carefully and intelligently. Re
pointed out the many extravagances
of the Dominion Government and
the way they abused the power
placed in their hands and proved to
the r.ati'factlon of the meeting that:
hitt opponent had received too many
fatore from Sir John A. to dare to
oppose hie wishes.
Mr. harrow followed man hour's
address and received a good bearing.
He referred to the snot arguments
as fit other meetings and attempted
to prove that the. larger the debt the
Lotter for the country.
