For some time the leaders of the • servative party have been putting rth the most energetic exertions thr s g out • the entire Province to re -organize, gather • together and replenish their ranks which were so badly depleted and broken by the Pacific Scandal disclosures. This, of course, they have a perfect right to do, and their notion from a party point of •view is commendable. But what are Reformers doing ? Are they going to lie quiet and passive,—to sleep on, while activity and preparation is the order in the camp Of their opponens. The lead- ers of the Conservative party at head quarters have set the machinery in • motion. They mill the wires, and those under them willingly and actively re- spond. As a result of this obedience see that Conservative demonstrations, • pie -nice, &c. are beiug •gotten up in all ' sections of the Province. At these • gatherings which are usually largely : attended, not alone by Conservativee but by Reformerssalso, Sir John' and other leading men of the pitrty are present to deliver political addresses. • As a . matter.: of course, these orators have things all their own way ; they present to the people very plausible stories; they de- nounce the Reform Governments as spendthrifts, renegades, and enemies to the country, and extol themselves as being the men who alone are worthy or capable 9f managing the affairs of State. Indeed Sir John has had the hardihood On these occasions to justify his conduct in connection with the Pacific Scandal • itself, and to declare that he had not been guilty of any conduct of which an honest man should feel ashamed, . and that he had not done anything which he would not, under similar circumstances, do again. ,These utterances are given forth 'in the most polished, plausible, • and positive manner, and as there is no • person on hand to refute than, or to show up the blackness of Sir John's past career and _the 6unning recklessness of his present 'utterances, the unsophisticat- ed go home more than half convinced that McKenzie is a rogue; and that Sir John is a mint who has patiently suffered • persecution for his :country's good. In addition to the means this used to arouse their own friends and entrap the unwary • among their opponents, Mr. Alfred Boultbee, ex-M.P.P. for North York, and, Mr. King Dodds, of Toronto, a' couple of oili-mouthed, unscru- • pulous, but active political • intrig- nere, have been engaged to go around through the country,, from County to 00111ity, stirring up the faithful and estab- lishing working, active organizations. In view of these facts Reformers will see that it vvill not do for them to lie idly by, and calmly look on at their oppon- ents thus actively preparing to destroy • thennwithout making one single effort to defeat them _at their, osin tactics. It is true that the Reform Governments which rale the Dominion and the Provinces, have each a large majority in their respective • Parliaments, ,but as the Constant dropping • of water on the hardest stone will ulti- mately wear it out, so will the false an- cueations of the Opposition against the Government, if allowed to go unrefuted and unchallenged, tell upon them. In the event of an election, also, the thor ough organization of the few will prove ore powerful than the disjointed and un - harmonious efforts of the many. As they in are now working, long before the next of general election arrives, the leaders of the Opposition will have every supporter worked into line, and all will be ready for simultaneons action. So that when • the hour for voting comes all differences will be allayed, and the whole, band will be ready for united and simultaneous ac- tion; while the Reform party, if they con- ; tinue to rely on their present strength and remain tractive until the election comes, • will be divided and scattered, and the re- sult gannet but be disastrous to them. Our opponents may, and do have dif- ferences among themselves, but when • election times come round, they are • united as one man, and no matter who the candidate er what the issue, they go • in a mass the one way. In addition to active organization, Reformers !night, re ce 0 fr a sh a en lo fu 12 a se er in son why we should be careless .cen- ning them, and why we should assist r political opponents by withol ne our political leaders the assist& ce should give them ?
