It was amply I monstrated at the
banquet tendered Mr. R. L. Dordeme
at tho ICing 1 Edw. rd Hotel, in Tor -
Onto ,on Thursda evening of last
week, that the 1 ader of the Oppo-
sition posses the affection, es-
teera and loyalt of the Coneerva-
tiveg of Ontario. The reception ten-
dered him was Mete 'Short of an ova-
tion, the large gathering cheering
him to the eolith again and again
There was fa swing .and enthusiasm
pervading the proceedings that is 4
happy augury lo - the- future. There
were over ‘400 g ests in attendance
comprising renre entative men ,from
alinest every eli trict in the pro-
vince,while prom, ent wotkere were
present from Qu bete and the Mari-
time Provinces. it was 4 virile and
intellectual gathering, breathing the
old-time fighting " spirit tVat so
long made the Conservative party 4
doneinent factor in the political his-
tory of the Do ion .Two Provin-
cial Premiers raced the occasion,
lion. Richard 11 Bride, from British
Columbia, and P ender Whitney. Mr.
Bergeron, the Old warrior from
Quebec, with ' the dust of battle and
the blood of hisenemies on his unie
form " vouchsafed the cheering in-
telligence that the Conservative -par
ty in the sister 'province is a pretty
lively corpse. ,
• The banque throughout will
take' rank es o e of the most sue-
cessfui and best arranged which
has ever been Oa Id in Toronto. There
was not a hith or a jar, every.�
thing being managet with clock -
like regularity. Although , giviib
under the austsices of the !Borden
.Club, it was* not in any Sense of
a Ineal \ elaa.oacIter, and the • issues
discussed\ were. ell of a , national im-
portance. The .' dinner, which was
held in the Etremean dining room,
started. short],i. after seven
and the toast lit was reached short-
ly after niee Welook.
Mr. Borden,' has, perhaps, ziever
been heard to better advantage. He
spoke foe. an hour and twenty-five
minutes, and 1 -his every sentence
was ;followed with the closest atten-
tion. %He emphasized the need for
the holding, .of a Conservative con-
vention, whidh would be reiresent-
ative of the grand old party that
had written the proud story ef Can-
ada upon the Pages of ethejvorld's
history. Such a conference P wauld:
have •undoubted. ly been held last
a
year had not tee long eession of Tar-
liament intervened. • This echiven-
tion would fir t have to. formulate a
pelicy and be repared to honorably
carry it ,out o go out of office. La
this respect t ey would differ from
the Liberals, I.0 had adopted. e., plat-
form at the f mous convention held
in Ottawa in 903e and after- attain-
ing to owee, • ad let every plank on
that platform go by the board. The
second matte that such a conven-
tion would 'be called Amon to address
itself to woul be that of organiza-
tion. It was dle to fight under ex-
isting oircum tances without . thor-
ough organiz tion. He likened it
to a strong a my well equipped, but
destitute of rifles, He • made it
quite clear t at the conference would
be free to c nader the question of
leadership. Any man who • thought
he had sought the position ehould at
once be unde eived. '
