H. B. Combe acted as chairman. • The 'first speakeil called was Mr' N. W.' Trewartha, former member for South_Buron, who introduced the cam.- didate, MT. Alex. Neel). Mr. Trewar tha said he -had been- associated with Mr. Neel) in .0ounty "Council; where they had had some hard financial profblems to tackle and that tfiey had gained the name of "the watchdogs of the treasury.” He believed Mr. Neeb would make a compakent inemL her for this riding. Touching on the Government's temperance policy Mr. Trewartha said- there • was little to count on if, Mr. .Sinclaic should he elected, as one of his followers brought in a 3i11, asking for, 10 per cent. beer which was voted down, al- -though • a number of the .Liherals • voted for it, add last year another group of Liberals brought in a bill asking for Government Control, and he did not think the Progressives could be elected in large enough num- bers to be able to form a government. •He advised tbe people:to vote for Mr. Neel). , Mr. Neeb spoke briefly. He said the meetin`g was rather a surprise party to him. He acknowledged the kind things said about him by Mr. Trewartha said they had always worked well together in County Conn - Ca and never divided on any import - Ant Matter during the time they so worked .together, He said he feared that they had sometimes bad unemn- plimentry things said about them aa they were considered to be "altogetiv er'too near."

She said she - was Conservative by coniiietion, believing the Coniervative policy was the best for the country, She thought i, the 0: T. A. bad failed because it had had so many evils grow up about it.• She felt her boys would be safer under FerguSon's proposed system of Gov - eminent Control and believed that if there were those who would drink and would have it tbe country might as ,well have,' the revenue which it would bring in, She believed the bootlegger could be Controlled, as well as the liquor, -by the -Government.
