It was.likewise unique in that it was the first 'dine in which. the lad- ies in the riding have been represented not only in the audience by as officials. It was also the first tiuie.that a lady speaker has been heard trim the plat- form in the Liberal interests 111 the riding, but the speaker on this occa- sion, Mrs. Hyslop, Provincial Organ- izer for the Ontario Women's Liberal Association: certainly created a most favorable impreesion, delivering a sound, practical eddrese that was lis- tened to with the closest attention by the audience. The large hall Nees fill- ed to canacitn, anumber having to stand and every division of the riding was represented. After the election of officers for both associations and ether official business, Mr. Thomas McMillan, the Liberal candidate for the riding at the next Dominion elec- tion - was called upon, and delivered an exceptionally able speech,. dealing with Dominionpolitics, heavily scor- ing the Borden Govelinment's %cape- bilities,the mismanagement Of recruit- ing, their extravagance and gralt and new tariff measures and also fully and frankly discueeed the Conscription and Coalition issues. In fact it was gen- erally remarked, that Mr. McMillan had rarely been heard to better ad- vantage. He wale, followed by Mrs. Hyslop, who discussed the aims and objects of the Women's Liberal Asso- ciation and the last speaker of the day was Mr. C. M. Bowman,g.P.P. of Southampton, Liberal whip m the Ontario House, who gave a splendiu address along Ontario political lines, clearly showing that the driving force behind the recently won reforms in this province had not been Premier Hearst and his Cabinet, but the small, but indomitable Liberal opposition. It 'w s decided at this meeting to call a eojnvention before August 1st, for the selection of a candidate to contest the riding in Inn biberal interests at the next Provineial electionahe exact date to be decided by the Executive.
