"We are the'party of low taxation"
declared Sir Wilfrid in 1805, and yet
they have taken $220,150,000 more
taxes out of the people in the last
twelve years.
—If the Liberals are beaten at the
approaching election, it will be be-
cause of the abuses that have sprung
up under their administration, and
their failure to carry out their pled-
ges.
* *
—The Liberals in Opposition object-
ed to the sale of Western Lands to
speculators. In power the Liberal Ad-
ministration sells block after block to
speculators until most of the desirable
land near the railway lines is alien-
ated.
* *
—Imports into Canada fell off ten
millions of dollars, or over 30 per cent.
in August. But the Laurier govern-
ment goes on spending just the same.
Lately, an official has been visiting
town after town to buy sites for post -
offices, etc.
* *
—There can be no nobler tight for
the honest and really patriotic Cana-
dian than that to which we are called
on Oct. 20—the fight for the complete
overthrow of crookedness in the very
heart of the Dominion, the battle for
rectitude, restitution and reform.
* *
—How would it do to let Mr. J, E.
Armstrong, M,P., "finish his work."
He was denounced as a bore and a
nuisance when he introduced rural
mail delivery, but now he turns out to
be a seer and at prophet, who has
moved the Government•to action.
* *
,
—Federal voters' lists were an
abomination when the Liberal party
was in Opposition. Yet a vigorous ef-
fort was made in the session just
closed to establish such lists in Mani-
toba. That failed, but Federal lists
have been compiled for Northern Ont-
ario, for the coming election,
*
—The gross estimates, bounties and
subsidies for 1008-0 amount to $168,-
000,000. The revenue has been drop-
ping at from one to two millions a
month. This year we shall have a re-
venue of $80,000,000 on which to fin-
ance these authorized expenditures of
more than double that figure. This
means a great increase of the public
debt and heavy borrowing in the
money market.
* *
—Mr. Horden's most adverse critics
ungrudgingly admit that he is in
every sense of the word a gentleman.
A. statesman who is so true to his
political professions and who stands
for honesty in the Government could
not well be wanting in that sincerity
of private character which is the main'
quality of a gentleman. If the people
make him Canada's next Premier he
will adorn the office and render the
country distinguished. service.
*»*
---It is estimated by experts familiar
with departmental methods that the
introduction of sound business ',rind -
plea would cult the annual expenditure
of the Dominion by ten millions of
dollars. Three years of decent eeono-
my would provide money enough to
deepen the Welland Canal or build a
railway to Hudson Bay without add-
ing a dollar to the national outlay.
It is true that the Government has
had enormous surpluses. These the
Premier proudly puts at a grand total
of $112,000,000 in tavelve years. Where
did the money go P The debt has been
increased. The annual expenditure
has gone up from $46,000,000 hi 1806 to
over 100
CI00 000 In1 8.
$ , 9i1 With $$00,-
000,000 of excess revenue as compared
with the last twelve years of Con-
servative rule, only $60,000,000 have
been devoted to great eonstruetive
enterprises, With beggarly revenues,
the achievements of Conservative
Governments were at least as note-
worthy, The comparison is infinitely
damaging to the Laurier Cabinet,
—What we are confronted with in.
this election is the same situation, iu
an aggravated form, as that with
rvlhich we dealt in Ontario politics a
few years ago. The same remedy
should be applied, Severe eases
require prompt, drastic treatment,.
*.
—The situation in the Dominion
seems to be simplifying Itself, ('er,
taitlly the issue is becoming much
plainer, It is now merely a question
of whether or not the people of Cana-
da, want Sifton and his brother-in-law
and his friends—made rich in a few
years by "inside" timber deals -,--or
whether they want them replaced by
honest Iden,
i, M
—The Huntingdon Gleaner, speak-
ing for the English-speaking Liberals
of Quebec, declares that the Dominion
Government has gone over to the ex-
ploiters. Instead of carrying out the
party policy, it has inaugurated a sys-
tem infinitely worse than that which
the Liberals had condemned. It is
giving the public money to party men
and is bestowing it with a lavish hand
upon private enterprises. The Glean-
er adds :—
"Are not the men who put these
Ministers in office justified in re-
monstrating with them and in
calling upon them to change their
policy ? Are the working people
of the Dominion to pay out of
their pitiful earnings more inter-
est on fresh loans, more revenue
to pay salaries to party drones ?
Promise and Fulfilment.
PROMISE.
'fThe sales of public lands of the Do-
minion should be to actual settlers
only and not to speculators." --Liberal
Platform, 1893,
FULFILMENT.
The Laurier Government gave to
some of its friends 250,000 acres of
Western lands at one dollar an acre.
Within a year or so, these fortunate
friends of Clifford Sifton sold these
lands at $6 to' $8 an acre. The ac-
count stands Iike this :
The Government — trastees for the
Pooplo—receive from speculators.. $ 250,000
The settlers buy from the speculators
and pay them 2,000,000
The speculators divide as profits 1,750,000
(See Hansard 1005, page 890.1078,)
RESULTS.
Political favorites of Laurier & Co.
pocket a million and three-quarters of
clear profit in a few months.
This is only one of many such plums
that were thrown to political favorites
of Laurier et al.
Mr. Hislop defends and supports
such barefaced wasting of our public
heritage. A vote for Hislop means
that you approve of it also. -
What Are They There For ?
What are they there for ? Why,
but for the offices.
When the Liberal party came into
power in 1800, it did so on the strength
of its pledges and promises.
It pledged itself among other things
to lighten the burden of taxation,
which it declared to be "grievous,"
and during its twelve years of office
the rate of taxation has increased
from $5.40 per head in 1806 to $11.70
per head in 1008.
It pledged itself to reduce the ex-
penditure of the country, which it
declared to be "ruinous," and during
its ten years of office the expenditure
of the government has been over
$231,000,000 in excess of the expendi-
ture' of the Conservative government
during their previous ten years of of-
fice.
It pledged itself to reduce the pub-
lic debt, which was "viewed with
alarm," and the public debt has been
increased by over $30,000,000; and
when the cost of the Government
share of construction for the Grand
Trunk Pacific railway is added, the
public debt will have been increased
by over $130,000,000,
It pledged itself to preserve our
public credit and husband our resour-
ces. It has given away millions of
acres of fertile lands, thousands of
square miles of valuable timber Iands,
miles of valuable coal deposits and
mineral lands for nothing or at merely
nominal prices to political friends and
parasites, and seriously reduced our
capital.
It pledged itself to reform in the Ci-
vil Service, and witness• the Depart-
ments of the Minister of the Interior,
the Minister of Fisheries, and the re
port of the Civil Service Comtnissior.
It pledged itself to purity in elec-
tions and in the condudt of the gov
erainent, and witness the appoint-
ments of daekson, of Leach, of Pres-
ton, men of like principle to lucrative
and honorable positions in the Federal
employ,
Never has there been such a govern-
ment which so woful]y failed to keep
faith with the people in the carrying
out of its election pledges.
Never has there been a government
which has departed so .far from, the
prineiples advocated by it when it
first entered office,
Never in the history of this country
has there been a government which
games so openly And daringly before
beforethe
r people o askto
p pet be retained
its office simply because they want the
offices.
The practical question to be deter -
alined on election day is this—Is it
safe to entrust the affairs of this coun-
tey for four you* mere to men who
have thus failed to Barry out the viol.

'Pews Items
—Farmers is the vicinity of Marden
and Guelph are justly indignant at
some very mysterious occurrences
which have taken place in the vicinity
of the village recently, as the result of
which two cattle were maimed thro-
ugh having their legs broken in a
most peculiar planner. So great is
the indignation expressed that, at
meeting of the township council it
was decided to offer a reward that
would lead to the clearing up of the
mystery..
—A very peculiar incident took
place on the 0, P. R. near Dumfries
station one day recently when an ex-
press train left the rails and after
bumping over the ties fur a few sec-
onds jumped on the track again and
proceeded as merrily as if nothing had
happened. Railway men say this is
the funniest, freak known t.o trainmen
anywhere. The train was going at a
high rate of speed, the track between
Ayr anti Galt being known to engin-
eers as the race course.
^-Fred Lippert and Alex, Ernest of
Walkerton, started out on Thursday
last on what was destined to be .a ra-
ther singular and .unfortunate trip.
The axle of the wagon snapped under
the heavy load of monuments near
Maple Hill, and leaving the wagon
they hastened back to Walkerton for
a new axle. The outfit fixed, they
proceeded farther, when the whip-
stock broke, and later on the tongue
gave way. They had by this time al-
most reached Dnrham, and with much
difficulty were pushing forward, when
a sleeper on a bridge they were cross-
ing broke, and almost precipitated the
outfit into the water. This long train
of accidents was concluded by Fred re-
fereeing a football game while wait-
ing for repairs at Durham. As the
opposing teams were turbulent the
marble man was at times almost call-
ed upon to defend bis person against
the attacks of the players.
