Streamers were string across the streets, bearing mot ',es such as "Wing - ham Welcomes Laur er," "Canada First, Last end Always," "An All Canadian Railway," "Lauri r and the Larger Canada." The in :rior of the Opera House was fitting) decorated, the na• tional colors, and mottoes being huug about the'walls in •rofuslon. The hall was tonally inadeq : ate to accommodate the immense thron - that had gathered to hear the Premie discuss the public questions of the c ay.

At this point, thre: little girls, Misses Horsey, Homnth and Bisbee stepped forward and pres .need Lady Laurier, Sir Wilfrid and .ir. Macdonald each with a beautiful •onquet, for which they received the c stomary reward. Dr. Macdonald i • a few words opened the meeting, statin that he was glad to see such an euth :iastic audience to welcome the grea est Liberal of the great Liberal par y of Canada, All were proud of the advancement that Capada had made under the Laurier administration, an • everyone would rejoice at the oppo unity of welcodsing such a man. Canada had had many great men in the p at, but neither the Conservative part, nor the Liberal party has had a grater man than the one at the head of he Liberal party to- day.
