a record breaker,and we hardly believe
it possible; -"In the three months,Jan-
nary, February and March, he received
from 10 hens 1,101 eggs, which he sold
for 20 cents per dozen: He wants to
hear of any hens either in Ontario or

We think it is a hard record to attempt
to break.

'from ever y soldier for marching, en-
durance or fighting. It can challenge
comparison with any battalion in Lord

The Member for West Huron took Part in the Midget debate
the House, and the followinn extracts are taken from
his Speech, as reported in -Hansard ; and
are only part of the Speech.
Mr. ROST. HOLMES (West Huron.)
Mr. Speaker, I am not surprised that
the members of the Opposition should
make desperate efforts to try aud
square themselves in view of the won-
derful record of the present adminis-
tration. When we bear in mind the
nature of their ante -election addresses,
the prophesy that, if the Liberals came
into power, ruin, deso ation and decay,
would be the outcome thereof, and
when we comparethese with the won-
derful trade returns that have been ,
presented by the present administra-
lion, which show that during the past
three years the volume of trade has '
increased more than it did during the '
whole of the eighteen years that the
Conservatives were in office, I an not
surprised tbat they have to resort to
desperate methods in order to meet
the arguments that we have to face.
them with. It is also amusing to me
to hear gentlemen like the hon. mem-
ber for East Grey (Mr Sproule)sattri-
bute the prosperity to other causes
than those which they claimed when
in power were the contributing cronies
to prosperity under the old regime.
Hon. gentlemen who are familiar with
political history will remember that
the hen. gentleman, (Mr Sproule,) as
well as others of his party, claimed
that Providence, and the good times
in other lands, had nothing whatever
to do with prosperity in Canada, but
that it was the national policy pure
and simple. Why, one Conservative
member even- claimed that the hens
laid larger eggs under the inspiration
of the national polisy. When we con-
sider, Mr Speaker, the strong financial
showing that the Liberal government
is able to present, it seems to me that
the Opposition are fighting against the
logic of irrefutable facts.
I wish to point out, Sir, ',,hat the Lib-
eral gevernnsent now in power ,has
shown its sincerity in carrying out to
ts very large extent its ante -election
.promises, notwithstanding, what the
Opposition have asserted --and itsis
simply a matter of assertion en thei"
part, I shall not dwell on the reforms
inaugurated by the Liberal govern-
ment it any length, but I may point
out that this government has shown
its good faith in legislating in the in-
terest of the masses in the case of the
very important reduction they have
made ,on the rate of. postage. The
Postmaster Genera! (Mr Mulock,) is
entitled, and he receives, the thanks
of the people of the country because of
thatreduction. I was amused at the
course of the hon, member for Halton,
(Mr = Henderson,) on this matter.. It
amounted •to this, that if the Conser-
vatives were returned to power they
would restore the postage rate to three
cents.
Mr. HENDERSON. Nobody ever
said that. •

think that the party opposite is a unit
upon.itslown platforrn. „It is, on •the
contrary'. at sixes and evens upon the
various issues before the people. The -
hon. member for Halton (Mr !lender -
son,) conveyed the idea -by implica-
tion -at, any rate,' if not directlY, . that .
the duties on certain articles ought to -
be lowered, and that, because the gov-
ernment had not lowerell these duties,
it had not. carried out its pledgee. If
.his argument, meant. -anything, it
meant that the government ought to
reduce the duties. That was, the i rn-
plied .sequenge to his logic:: The hon.
member for South Leeds (Mr Taylor),
however. takes exactly theopposide
view. , He takes thesview tnat the gov-
ern mentoneht to.increase the, duties.
Why, when.he,was.in _My Aiding, an
interview was published inswhich !the
hon gentleman was quoted as having
:said lancet tails. ma n (dart urer in the
towp of Goderich,thet if the.Crinsenva-
tive party canie into pnwer, there
would be no free binder twine, no. free
corn. tea free barbed -wire,and t he dub
on agrieriltural implemental would . be
increased to 45,per cent. • When the
hon. gentleman got back to Toronto,
three days After the publication ot that
interview, he took occasion to deny.. it,
but that intervieir was used in the
West Huron caunpa,ign, while the hon.
gentleman, and the bon, menn hers for
Kent were taking part in it. It was
used at a number of meetings which I
..know of, and was never repudiated un-
til the hon. member was .150 miles
'away from the scene of the interview,
and then only repudiated in part.
Therefore,. I am justified in saying
that these hon. gentlemen opposite are
not a unit on their own platform- •
I think that it was the bon. member
for North- W ellington (Mr McMullen) -
who alluded to the attitude of the Mail
and the charecter of its utterances. It
is within the recollection .of honosentle-
men that the TOI onto M at one time
ceased to be .the organ of the Conserva-
tive party, and delighted in running
its editorial knife into the leaders and
supporters of that party. It had a per-
fect right to do that, I suppose, while
it occupied an. independent p ion,
but what better eildence.can w ave
of the insincerity of. that paper, icb
is now the organ of the:opposition,
the fact that the very men who re
editing it today, who ore responsible
for its utterances and at titude, are the
.men who were 'editing it when it was
an independent journal. If it was
cere at that time, how can it be sincere
now? What reliance can be placed up-
on its utterances? It is discredited out
of its own mouth,
I have nothing further to say except
this - that when the tune shall come,
be it soon or be it !ate, when it is neces-
sary for this governinent to appeal to
the people to condemn or to endorse
their action, I have no doubt what the
verdict, of the people will be. What-
