With Mr. and 'Mrs. Will Scotchme:r,
Hon. 'Thos. Greenway, Liberal can-
didate for Lisgar for the House of
Comn,nns is well known here. It is
more than thirty years since he was
first a can'did'ate lot a seat in that
chamber. In. 1372 he stood as a Con-
servative for the constituen'cy of
'S'outh Huron as formed at Confeder-
ation. The no'min'ation proceedings
were held at the village of Varna and
the speeches were made from a rough
platform erected at the oro's•sroads.
While the meeting was in progress a
buggy, swiftly driven along the Bay-
field road, dashed into the village and
from this alighted a heavy man with
one arm, a wide soft hat and a white
vest, unevenly buttoned. He mounted
to the p'latforth unrecognized by the
crowd. while the late Judge Senkier
of Lincoln, then a,practising barrister
at G:aderich, was speaking. Later he
was in'trod'uced as Hon, E. B, Wood,
and the moment Itis name was men-
tioned., shouts of "speak now" arose
and a tumultuous demonstration fol-
lowed which only,a strong appeal -
from
ppealfrom. Mr. Greenway s'ucoeeded in
,quieting. The "spealc now" had a
reference to the mote fished out ofa
spittoon which was sent to Mr.
Wood try Hon. Edward Blake at the
time of the downfall of the Sand field
Macdonald governnn'ent. W'heu at last
Mr. Wood got a hearing he plunged
into a speech of remarkable vigor and
very soon see'me'd to have the whole
meeting at his command. Mr.'
'Greenway was defeated in that con-
test by 185 votes. • He Poet again in
1874 by 86 votes. A yeat later C.
Cameron .of Goder.ich was unseated
and in 1875 Mr. Greenway was elect-'
ed for (South Huron by. acclamation:'
Although he had stood as a Conser-
vative candidate in 1872 and 118174 and
was now returning as an independent
Conservative, he supported the Mac-
kenzie Government during his three
years in the Commons, and ever since
has acted with the Liberal party. In
18744 he went to Manitoba and in the
year following was sent to represent
Mountain in the Legislature. He .be-
came leader of the Liberal Opposition
in 187.7, Premier in 1883 and resigned
office in 1900 on the defeat of his ad-
ministration., '.ICr. Greenway is now
likely to return to the chamber where
he began his parliamentary career
thirty years .ago:
