MEETING OF SOUTHIUROT
CONSERVATIVE ASSOCIA.-
TION.
The annual reeetthg" og the Conserva-
tive Assoelation or Sonth Huton was
held in liensall on Thursday last.
There was a large attendance, one of
the greatest in the history of the ,Asso-
elation , •
.4d:dresses Were delivered by several
of the most prominent men M the rid-
ing, all at whom spoke highly of their
able and popular l'Opvesentative in the
Legislature, Mr.'''. Either, and prophe-
sied for him almost a walk -over in the
next general election. The Ross (*QV-
ernrnerit was criticised, It has been
robbed of the surplus story which
ovincial Treasurers have been relat-
ing with so much gusto and anequal
absence ofjustification. The report of
the Royal Commission, which was
appointed to examine into the financial.
.sti&ing of the .provinee, shows that
llcasb balance is a fraudulent myth.
M.P.P.made a ratitling speech
dealing with the new Ontario Cry
which has been Witten up to hide, the
sins of the Governmeet, the pulp wood
agreements made by the • Government
behind closed doors in the dying hours
of the session and givingthe resources
of the province to foreign 'capitalists
-
instead. of Canadians. The work of the
machine, which:slipped cogs duringthe.
general and bYe-elections, was. Also
. referred to • in scathing terms. Mr.
Eilber was in gmid form and. was: fre-
quently applauded .during his speech.
It was I esolved that the sepretary be
instructed to. convey to .Mr. William
Graham of Stanley township the sym-
.
pathy of the Association .because of the
. great loss he recently sustained by the
.death of hiskeloved wife, • •
• ResOlu•tione.of,confide,nce in Messra.
Borden and Whitney, Dominion and
Provincial Leafier's, were also adopted,
after which- the', assembly broke up
-with all singing GodSave the King.

The Best Wireaence is the Page.
ase-saielee•ileasseasese
There are few ferice users in Canada, and the 'United States who luta% riot
neara of Page fencing, There is in the neighborhood of 00,000 miles of it in use
on the farms and reilroads of the two countries. It is everywhere now accept-
ed as it standard article of the best quality. The secret of out' great success in
its manufacture is not wholly owing to the feet that we have pushed hard and
Tong for its introduction to the public but largely owing to the fence being made
on correct principles, which are far in advance of itifythieg in this line before
thought of, and to the fact: that we use material in the fence twice as good •as is
put in any other. Every horizontal wire is coiled into it perfect spring its entire
length, but that Coiling is not the whole thing. It would be useless to coil it
000101011 steel wire, as the coil would straighten out with the first strain and
stay so. So we have made specially for us at the Page Wire and Steel Mill ab
Monesseh. Penrisylvania,a very fine quality of spring steel wire. Others claim
to be usitig it hard steel wire as good as the Page, but it is far inferior.
