The Hens a J1 Convention.
The following de patch was sent from
email by the agent of the Great North -
est Telegraph Com any there, and appear-
d in the daily paper4 on Saturday :
The adjourned meeting of the Prohibition
onvention for South Ruron washeld ere
o•day. There was `` , fair attendance
°legates from the dois:tituenoy, The re -
ort of the committees appointed to wait on
the candidates to ascertain their position on
rohibition was recei ed, and, after oonsid-
rable- discussion the convention passed a
evolution expressing their satiefection with
he pledges of Mr. M: Y. McLean, the Lib--
ural candidate. Rev. G. H. Lang resigned
the Presidency of the organization, and Rev.
Mr. Martin, of Exeter, was appointed. Mr.
ichols, the organizer for the Dominion
Bianca, was present and gave an address
on the neeeseity for thorough organization
for the Prohibition catimpaign.
The above is not q u, to correct, and, as I
do not wish to sail under false colors, I de-
sire to make the following corrections. No
committee ever waited on me. I wa.s not
asked to make any pledge, and I made
Pone. Two queationei were submitted to me
in writing,, as follows':
1. -Are you in favor of the enactment
and enforcement of as stringent a law for
the prohibition of thoetraffiio in intoxi:ating
liquors as may be within the power of the
Provincial L•gislatnrel to pass ?
2. -If elected, will You assist by vote and
%:Lfluence in making effective the bill passed
by the last session of the Legislature in the
event of the Act becoming the law of the
Province ?
{ The following is the `reply I gave to the
above questions : 1
No. L -I fully appeove of and endorse the
action of the Government and Legislature
i this respect.
No. 2. -Should the Act, to bee dnbmitted
f r the votes of the electorate on the 4th of
December next, become law, if elected, I
small assist by vote and influence in making
it as effective as possible.
II was not in attendance at either meet -
g,. but I understand that at the Last meet-
g the answers I gave, as above, were
Eopted as satisfactory, and, that there may
no misapprehension on the eubjeot,I deem
advisable to publish both questions and
ewers. Both speak for themselves.

Which Shall It Be ?
Before another issue of Tun ExiosiTos
th battle in Ontario will be over for a
t t er four years, and the eleeters will ha
e ided which party is to have the handlin
. ;f the reins of power. Although we do n
✓ fess to be prophets, we do not teiak it
i cult task to determ hie what the resu
i l be. Despite the f ob that polling da
is So close at hand, ther aeema to be Iackin
that excitement andunrest which usual]
i$e4okecs a change, and indicates a feeling o
the part of the electorate that they ar
satisfied that the public affairs have bee
epi ely and judiciously managed ; that th
fin nces of the Province have been econom
iwa ly expended, and that our natural re
so meet have beerkearefully husbanded.
or nearly thirty years the Liberate hav
be n at the head of affairs in Ontario, an
th heir credit it can truthfully be said the
ill all that time not one charge has bee
riiaae against them for any corrupt expen
&time of the wealth of the Province. Dur
irtg that time they have wisely administers
the affairs of state and carefully and jealouel
guarded our interests. To them belong
the credit of Lavine saved to the Provino
that vast area known as New Ontario, s
rich in mineral and forest products', and i
the face of stubborn and strong oppoaitio -
theyhave defended and 'sueeeasfully main
taed our constitutional rights and liber
tie. In these: years the party has ha
several leaders, all able men, but severely
ccititoized and often realigned by the people
aridpaperswho are now praising them, just
al they are now maligning and criticizing
those who are et the head of the Govern-
mletlt at the pre -8 eat tiine.
At this election we hatre before us Hon.
G. W. Rose, who, although he has : served
the Province long and faithfully, is appear-
ing for the first time before the electorate in
the capacity of Premier of this Province.
During the three years Which Mr. Ross has
been at the head of affairs, a policy of pro-
gression has been Established which augurs
well, for the future prosperity of Ontario.
Mr.IIRosa_ comes before the electorate with
strong and statesmanlike policy, and a
a ;
reood that is clean. Re has fully demon-
strated that be is a large man, able and
willing to cope. with the large questions that
are now arising in the Provinoial arena. To
the wise policy inaugurated by Mr. Ross ; is
in to email measure due the, rapid develop-
ment that. has taken place in New Ontario.

While openipg up that country for the
settler and the capitalist, he has retained to
the Province all the benefits that accrue

r. Thomas Crawfords connection with
the 1 akota ranch aeeme to be causing him
no and' of trouble in the ; Present campaign.
It will be remembered that Mr. Crawford
denied, in the T egisiatrire, having had any
interest directly or indirectly in the bnsi-
nese, mol d joined the resp of the 'Conserva-
tives in a fusilade of !abuse against Hon.
John Dryden. But now that he has been
cornered up, he has to admit that he held
shares lin it. Of . course, it is no person's
business in what way Mr. Crawford invests
his money, but then he should have been
" bold ]enough to be honest," and not have
denied it; but hurledabude at another man tor
just what ha himself had dome. .
Bystander, in the Toronto Weekly Sun,
says : ; " Sir Wilfrid Laurier ' is an avowed
opportunist and a skilful observer of opin-
ion. When he denouneee militarism as .the
curse of Europe, and warns us against in-
jectinglit into this country, we know which
way the current of opinion must be setting.
Oar people are now brought faoe to ' face
with the serious aspect of the matter. To
cheer the parting heroes, to welcome them
on their triumphant return, to revel in
weekly, ' bags' of Boers, to look on at re.
views, Sham fights, garrison church parades,
has been pleasant enough. Ib has been
pleasant enough to feel that we were a por-
tion of a conquering Einpire. But now our
people are told that they must prepare to
tax theinselves for an army sufficient to de-
fend four thousand miles of open frontier,
and a navy to defend both our Atlantic and
Pacific j coasts. The maritime defence of
Newfoundland will be added if that island
comes into confederation.' There will be no
use in !tali doing the thing. An army and
navy not strong enough for the par oee
,would be simply money thrown away.. Let
this be put plainly before the Canadian peo-
ple, and there can be little doubt about the
answer;

The quettions at issue in the election Were
very thoroughly discuated. The speakere

their friends, and, judging from appearau-
oes, the audience seemed to be pretty even-
ly divided politically. The public meeting
was presided over by Mr. John Laporte,
