SE AFORTI, FRIDAY, DEC. 31,188
On the War Path.
During the present week Hon. M
Blake addressed the citizens of Londo
Hamilton, Toronto and Montreal on the
Pacific Railway Syndicate gnostic, .
At each meeting resolutions strongl
oondemu.atory of the proposed agre
ment were passed. Sir Richard Car
wright, Mr. Ross, Mr. Charlton an
other Opposition members have al o
held several very suctessful meeting:,
but the time at the disposal ' of t, e
members has been entirely too short o

o=utside of the larger centres of ,popul
tion. Sir Charles Tupper appeared 'n
London, Hamilton, Toronto and Mo
treat, and addressed meetings in vin• i -
cation of the scheme on the nights su
seeding Mr. Blake's meetings in ea h
place. Both gentlemen were greeted_ ny
Targe and attentive audiences, and it is
not unlikelythat the •people of the:e
cities now thoroughly understand t e
position. If they do, it is almost i
possible to conceive of their being s
isfied with the conditions of the agr
meat, even although they should p
fess to be. Resolutibns were also p
ed at Sir Charles •Tupgper's meeti • gs

Sir Charles Tupper, in his speech

have carefully read that agreement and
weighed its provisions and conditions
will have little difficulty in decid'ng
that in this s=tatement the honor ! le
gentleman was very nearly correct. of
since confederation, at least, has
liament had a subject at all approi

the Case, and the Government b
aware of the fact, is it not pas
strange that it has evidently never
curred to them that the people shy
have some say in the matter ? hus
far the people have been persiste1itly
ignored ; they have been treated almost
with contempt. The conditions of this
important bargain, which meant so

secretfor several weeks after they

when they were divulged the Gov'
