predation does not add infallibility to
his political programme, and adds :--
‘, But we protest against the conten-
tion that Sir Wilfrid Laurier did. not
obtain yesterday evening a grea t ui a-
torical success. Ile made the people
frantic, and had t hey come badly dis-
posed he would have conquered them
awl turned them around."
The Quebec Chronicle (Conservative)
thus speaks of the great Liberal de-
monstration, at Montreal No states -
/Mall could ask for a more flattering
demonstration than was accorded by
the city of Montreal to Sir Wilfricl
Laurier on Thursday night, It shows
raore plainly, perhaps, than can, besold
in words that the Premier is a most
attractive figure in the eyes of his ad -
wirers. He commands, indeed, a per -
Pone' devotion that few leaders have
been able to achieve. One, may (lifter
from him in many matters but yet be
' compelled to concede that 'Sir Wilfrid
t Laurier is the idol of his party, and
Igives it more strength an cohesion
than any other Liberal in Canada is
capable of doing. In a sense we may
claim Sir Wilfrid as a citizen of Que
bee, since he tepresents one of the eh
vistons of the city, and, therefore, w
may, irrespective of politics, be per
mitted to congratulate him on the tri
bute offered him by the Liberals o
Montreal."

11 Magnificent Demonstration.
The demonstration given to Sir Wil-
frid Laurierat Montreal on Thursdal
last was an unparalleled success. It Is
described as " railes upon miles of Libe
era's'," and thousands were unable to
gain admiseion to the grounds where
the epeeches were deliver ed. The en-
thusiaern and spirit manifested was
simply indescribable.
The Premier, and with small won-
der, expressed himself as fairly over-
powered by. the tremendous enthusi-
asm of his reception. He had seen
• many grand -demenstiations in Mont-
real, this was the 'greatest and most
enthusiastic he had ever seen. He re-
membered, he remarked, hLaving seen
one sonaewhat similar in the same
place, some time before the last elec-
tion, when Sir Charles Tupper was pro-
phesying just as he was now, that the
• Conservative party was going to cerry
all before it at the election, He was as
good a prophet as Charles Tupper,
and he confidently prophesied the suc-
cess of the Liberal at the approaching
contest, The reason for his confidence
was the immense progress made by the
country during the last fou ears un-
der the present government. he Blues
in quebec, and the Conservatives in
Ontario. the Conservatives of all col-
ors and ranks all over the Dominion
admitted thatethe country was pros-
perous.
• WHAT HAS BEEN DONE,
"We appeal with confidence to the
aeople," said Sir Wilfrid. '4 We have
settled the school question. We have
reformed the tariff. We have found a
way to diminish taxation without in-
juring ccnnmerce. We have denounced
the Belgium and German treaties.
which fettered our commercial ar-
rangemerts, and by that act alone 0a -
nada heel become a nation in a. sense
that it never was before." Sir Wilfrid
went on to explain all that the govern-
rnent had accomplished in esta,blishing
penny postage, in constructing the
Crow's Nest Pass Railween in securing
a reduction of thirty per cent in the
freight rates of the C.P.R.; in extend,
ing the Intercolonial Railway to Mont-
real, and in making Montreal the na-
tional port. Somethings the govern-
ment had attempted to accomplish and
had not succeeded, because the Senate
had overruled the judgment of the
House of Commons, but all these re -
forme would be accomplished in time.
The Conservatives raised against the
Liberal party the cry "You have not
fulfirled your engagements." The gov-
ernment was said to have promised
free trade. "We never promised free
trade," remarked Sir Wilfrid. " Five
years ago I declared that free trade
was a principle to be aimed at, but it
was impossible to adopt it. It would
take fifty years to accomplish it."
He discussed, also, the tariff, the de-
velopment of trade, the transportation
problem, the immigtation policy, de-
velopment of agricultural resources,
the labor legislation, imperial federa-
tion, and other features of Liberal ad-
nunistration, closing amid a storm of
applause such as never before was wit-
nessed at any political meeting in the
commercial capital of the Dominion.
Concerning the meeting the Mont-
real Witness says ;.-" The name of
Laurier is as mighty a power among
the masses; as ever, the magnetic per-
sonality, the silver tongue of this great
son of the province, have lost none of
their influence. This was abundantly
deMoristrated In. Montreal latt night.
The Liberal demonstration in honor of
Canada's Premier was a tremendous
and overwhelming success. It was a
triumph worthy of it conqueror. Im-
mense political gatherings have been
seeh in Montreal before; never one of
such gigantic propertiontl, and accom-
panied by anCh "spontaneous enthusi-
asm as this. Sit Wilfrid himself de-
clared that it seas the biggest political
demonstration he bad ever seen, and
those who were with him were forced
to the sanae admission. Now that it is
all over one is at a loss to decide whieh
impressed him most, the proportions
of the demonstration or the sponta-
neity 3.nd apparent sincerity of the en-
thusiasm."
La Presse, the leading French Cana-
dian Conservative paper of the city,
under the heading of "A line speech,"
expresses regret that there is so much
personal bitterness in politics, "In the
uncontrollable zeal of the:campaign the
people have been carefully prepared for
the idea that Sir Wilfrid is a maitufac-
tufer of insipid phrases, uttered with-
out gestures`without fire; that his
whole makeup is the* of a Sorry per-
sonage of the secondclaw, and that he
is nob worth the trouble of being heard.
What is the good of this Utijnatills,ble
childishness. which the simple appear-
ance of Sir Wilfrid Laurier, even be-
fore he opened his mouth, destroyed
yesterday evening like it building of
cards? 18 there it representative of the
French-Canadian'rece more flattering
to them than Laurier.? Who is the
Mari that unites itt so- high it degree
intellectual and physical advantegee?"

Wilfrid Laurier is the equal of Ohrt-1

Sporting Notes.

"F. A. Angus and Chas. Slteates were
in Clinton on Saturday but were un-
able to arrange a game with Clinton
as none of the boys there could he

Wingteam boys have been in Clinton
often enough to know the number of
the street the secretary or manager of
the clubcan be found. Weunderstand

think there was any me to consider,
cold as regards another match Wing -
ham Was not to have full Say when,
where,who was to be umpire and every-
thing in connection with the said
game. Clinton boys are not to stand
aside and be dictated to. The executive
of the Huron league have not diecussed
the matter as tegards the disputed
eine Clinton is entitled to tbis game
and why should another be played.
If not, however, the executive is the
rightful party to decide, In Tuesday's
