West Huron ROBERT MCLEAN. East Huron E. L. DiencrNsoN. South guron THOS. E. HAYS. WASP HURON IN LINE. West Huron Conservatives to the number of about 150 met at Smith's Hill last Friday and unanimously nominated Mr. Robert McLean, of Goderich, to contest the Riding in the interests of the Conservative party. At two O'clock the president, Major Bee'k, called the assembly to order, and tilt r'bilbeing 'called and the dele- gates rtnstvering to their names, the following lions nations were made:— Hr'hest.l1eatori, '.R. A.., of Goderich ; Dthnttnd Oatnpiou, Q. O., Goderleb; Sahli fanstoi"d, dilatant -Dave Catlte- 1(or,• jlibt'ntt, I;'eter t ailtelon Clinton: Urecbdt`nPRobert Mc stltttr, 0errcht,Mitj'tir-flecti Saltfot+d; ,'C? 'dletluk ills, j';. eniial; Dr. ' Carse, Dungannon; and John Beacom, Gode- rich township. The candidates nom- inated addressed the convention, and all retired except Robert McLean, Dr. Freeborn, and E. Heaton. The speech- es were well received, as their pur- port was strongly in favor of the Tupper Administration. Before the ballot it was agreed by a unanimous vote of the delegates that whoever re- ceived the majority of votes should be the unanimous choice of the conven- tion. The candidates nominated hav- iug retired, the ballott was proceeded with, and on the first declared in favour of Robert McLean, who had a majority of the votes cast. On the vote being announced Dr. Freeborn moved, seconded by Ernest Beaton, "That Robert McLean be the unani- mous choice," and the motion being put, it carried withenthusiastn. After the candidate had accepted the nomination, Mr. A. VV. Wright, of Toronto, addressed the meeting on theuestions of the day, and his re- in/1,11p being strongly in favor of the Conservative policy were greatly cheered. Mr. Wright was followed by D. 1Veisuuiller, Dr. Tennant, and oth- ers. If the enthusiasm shown at the con• vention is continued until the 23rd Robert McLean will be the next mem- ber for West Huron by a substantial majority. The candidate • is a Large property.holder and an extensive cat- tle buyer, and is known to every voter in the county. His record is a good one, for all the positions he has held in town and county have been filled in a manner that reflects credit on the man, and showed great business apti- tude. The nominee was raised on a farm and owns several. He is there- fore well acquainted with the wants ot the farming community, and recog- nized as a thoroughly competent busi- ness man. The candidate has already started organizing, and from now un- til the election he will be active for the cause. From the opening of the meet- ing until its close there was no dis- senting voice. Thus the .candidate for West Huron starts the campaign under the brightest prospects of vic- tory. Cheers for the Queen, Sir Charles Tupper, and the candidate, brought to a close one of the most unanimous and enthusiastic conven- tions ever held by the Conservatives of West Huron. THE GRITS NOT IN 17'. The Liberals of Manitoba and the North-west do not manifest any great confidence in their cause, indeed, in the 'r ajority of constituencies, they are practically without and can scarcely claim a victory, which- ever way the elections should result. In Provencher, Mr. Lariviere, the Con- servative, is without an opponent. In both West and East Assiniboia, the Liberal candidates have quit, leaving the Patron nominees to fight the Con- servative standard -hearer. In Alberta, the Liberals are content to support a roan avowedly' an Independent, while in Saskatchewan the Conservative has a walk -over. In Brandon the Liberal has been withdrawn, and in Matquette, M1Ir. Ashdown, who gets the Liberal support, denies on every occasion that he is a Liberal candidate. So, in at least half of the Manitoba and Nc,rth- west constituencies, the Liberal party, as a party, is without, candidates. Recently the Patrons and Independ- ents of Marquette tendered the nomi- nation for the commons to A. Struth- ers, manager of the Barnardo Boys' Home in Manitoba. Mr. Strnthers de- clines in an open letter, declaring that in his opinion the return of Conserva- tive candidates would be in,the hest interests of the Canadian Northwest. Mr. Lariviere, the Conservative can- didate in Provencher, in an interview, defies Mr. Laurier to run against him in that constituency. Both Premier Greenway and Attor- ney -General Sifton will stump Bran- don on behalf of Dalton McCarthy. The Brandon correspondent of a Winni- peg paper writes that the Manitoba government is doing everything possi- ble to secure Mr. McCart.hy's return, and is endeavoring to unite all the Liberals in his cause. Some of the Liberals do not look favorably on his candidature and are inclined to support the Patron. Joseph Martin said he might not speak at the McCarthy denomonstra- tion, which is a positive refusal that Hugh John Macdonald's request to speak on that occasion would be refused. SOUTH HURON CONSERVA7IVES. A mass meeting cf Conservatives was held at Seaforth on Friday, and result,- ed esulted in placing Mr. Thomas E. Hays in the field as standard -hearer for South Huron. Every municipality in the tiding wile represented, and great en- thusiasm was manifested. The meet - mg adjourned for one hour to attend the funeral of the mother of the vice- president, Mr. E. 0, Coleman. upon rsassembling Dr. Bethune led off with a telling speech on the general policy of the Government. Mr. Hays, the candidate, was the next speaker, and was greeted With rounds of ap- 1)1au6e. s speech was full of vim, which augurs well for a Victorious result, and old South Huron will in all likelihood again range iteeif under the Clonservative banner.

In Manitoba Conservatives had their eyes opened by the Greenway, Martin, Laurier, Tarte deal, consequently they are working energetically for good government; and against hypocrisy of the lowest type. We're marching on to victory is the cry of grits everywhere. This of course means that the party has lots of boodle, for the election courts after every contest have shown how they tried to march to victory. In Quebec the Liberals are pledging themselves to support remedial legisla- tion, In Manitoba. the Greenwayites are promising to vote against it. With such well-known facts before them can honest men vote for the so-called Liberal party. The Conservatives haye to contend with a wonderful quintette, Laur ierites, Me0arthyites, Tarteites, Mowatites and Greenwayites, but the old policy of Queen, Fair Play and the Constitu- tion is one that a combination, formed to grab office at any price, will nut easily overcome. The're marching on to victor y and for this victory in Ontario the License Inspectors,- Division Court Clerks, Bailiffs and the host of Ontario em- ployees is the advance guard and it carries heavy cannon to down hotel keeper's and those having judgements against them. If the large sum paid by the Mc- Kenzie Administration, over the lowest tender for harbor improve- ments, to my friend Moore, there would be enough money on hand to repair Goderich harbor break water, and finish Port Albert docks. It may be that the Conservatives have made mistakes but the records of our courts show that they are not the equals of the Liberins in trickery and corruption. How then can honest men vote to put out a party that has a ten times cleaner record than the op- position. The leading Liberals of our sister Province, Quebec, have again taken up Mercier's name as a charm to carry the Province. Under these circumstances would it not be right for the Globe and the Montreal Witness to republish their articles, published not long since, about Mercier and his gang of hood tem ? Ths opposition members have much to say about Thos. McGreevy and his imprisonment.. Well, McGreevy did wrong and the Dominion Cabinet was honest enough to prosecute and punish a strong party man belonging to its party but did anybody ever hear of Quebec Liberals prosecuting Mercier, Tarte and the gangthat robbed Quebec of hundreds of thousands, or of Mowat or the liberals of Ontario punishing the nleu that unlawfully took from hotel keepers large sums to be used as boodle? The Conservative Policy is protec- tion to our native industries and- agri- cultural interests. The policy of the Liberals, continental Free Trade, Free Trade as it is in England, Protec- tion to Patterson's candy and biscuits, Free Trade in farm produce, Protec- tion to Lister's coal oil constituency or any policy that will win a vote, slightly paraphrasing the old show- man's answer when asked wbich was the lion and which was the lamb, it means, "You puts in your vote and you takes your choice." There were gloomy days in 77 and 78 and should such a calamity befall the Dominion as that of having the grits in power, before two years had passed there would not be money ennngh in Toronto to supply soup kitchens or funds at command of County Councils to purchase supplies for Houses of Refuge. In Manitoba the Patrons are in re- bellion against the liberals, because the Greenwayites have bought out every grit patron nominee. In West Huron the Grits will not try to buy out the McCarthyite candidate; he will he left to take Conservative votes. At the last day the Liberals of the third party will desert it, just as the county president of the patrons did Connolly. Last Wednesday John McMillan was again nominated by the Reformers of South Huron. His own friends, or at least many of them, were not satisfied that Mr. McMillian should misrepre- sent them and hold on to the sweets bf office any longer and nominated a stalwart and consistent Reformer in the person of Mr. George McEwan, of Hensall. There were 127 accredited delegates, McMillan receiving 95 and McEwan 32. Since then Mr. Thos. E. Hays has been nominated by the Con- servatives and has entered the fight in earnest. .Even +with snch a Grit ma' Parity in $gnth Unrbn he has a fair chance to win. Mr. Geo.

The able leader of the Ontario Op- position in the town hall, Clinton, on Thursday of this week. Sir James Grant is a Oonservative and will speak iii Clinton to -morrow evening. The deception of some patty men may be imagined when a leading Grit of Goderich declares that the late Mr. Mercier was a Tory boodler. It is expected that Sir Charles Tup- per and lion. Dr. Montague will ad- dress a couple of meetings in West Huron. Hugh John Macdonald is after the notorious Martin with a hot stick and now theLaurier-Greenwayite follower is on the run. Martin will receive a much deserved lesson on the 23rd of Jnne. The campaign in West Huron will he opened by the Conservatives on Thursday evening of this week in the town hall, Clinton. Robert McLean, the pop alar candidate, will be present and ably supported by SirJaines Grant M. P., Ottawa, and J. P. Whitney, M. P. P., leader of Her Majesty's loyal Op- position. "My friend Moore," a good Grit, built the Goderich breakwater, and a good Grit government paid a him an extravagant figure for the work. And the good Grits in the House of Corn - mons would not allow money to he placed in the estimates to put the botched job in proper repair, and M. C. M. C. Cameron, was one of the good Grits in the House at the time. The electors of Goderich will protect their best interests by voting for Robert McLean and good government., The Grits talk ot winning the elec- tion and shout loudly of clean inen. Well, Laurier was a friend of Mercier and is now an associate of Tarte and Pacaud, and we fearlessly assert that no business man would engage these men as clerks or managers of his business, How then can the Grits expect that an unhought electorate will entrust thein with the control of public funds. John McMillian was opposed by thirty-two delegates at the South Huron convention last Wednesday, and still our town cotem. absurdly asserts it cannot ascertain any dissatis- faction with the present member. If out esteemed contemporary will inter. view these thirty-two delegates and give the result to the public unpreju- diced judgment might then be pro- nounced. Many of the Reformers of South Huron are dissatisfied with the l,reaent member. THE VOICE OF THE PRESS. Prevarication Again. Toronto Mail and Empfro.

"Conservative journals are wasting much good ink and much doubtful elo- quence in proving that free tirade is im- %practicable in Canada. Who sayeit is? Who is advocating free trade for Can- ada ? The necesittes of revenue, arii1ng from..eighteeii years of extrav- agant OonservatiVe rifle, have made free trade an impossibility for this country."—Peterboro Examiner (Lib- eral).

And thus saith Sir Richard Cart- wright, leader de facto : I, for my part, would be sorry to see the issue dwindled down to a mere question of revenue tariff. This is a good thing in its way, but very much more than this can be got. A Natural Result. Montreal Gazette. Henry Carscallen, Q. C., an ex -presi- dent of the Hamilton Liberal associa- tion has grown tired of what he ealls "the vacillating, shilly-shallying pol- ity" of the Liberal leaders on the trade question, and he will henteforth work with and vote for the Conservative party and protection. Such adefeetion is the natural result of the twisting and turning the opposition has indulg- ed in, not only on the tariff, but on all questions. With one leader declaring protection worse than famine and pes- tilence, and another pretending to think it rather a good thing, only to be done away with by degrees, and that just because the party feels compelled to promise to do something atter all its years of denunciation of the N. P., it is nbt to he wondered at that men of conviction feel they will he better' in some other company.
