During the evening the following address was presented : TAXATION WITHOUT REPRESEN- TATION IN WEST HURON. London News, Independent. It is unofficially anuounced that the date of the bye•election in East ;Eent bats been fixed for November IL The Ontario Government has acted wisely jn deciding to hold an election at once and permitting representetion for the people all the time. • But the people of West }Jaen have been without representation in the Ontario Isegislature since 1898, During that time, or a portion of it, litigation has barred it bye -election. But all legal • controversy was at an end mouths ago, and yet no sonnd of a bye.election has • been heard. W hy should the people ot East Kent; • who bave been without tepresentation for.only two months or less, have a bye -election, and the people of West Huron, deprived of representation for three years, hale no bye- election ? The reason evidently is that East Kent is an easy riding to carry -a 'sure thing and Government victory, On the otlaer hand West Huron is a close figet and dangerous to the. Govern- ment. It is good tactics for a Govern- ment pater to gn into a general election just after the conclusion of a success- ful bye -election, laa it is disastroue to go into a general election after an un- successful bye -election. Of course the people of West Huron are deprived of representation; but what has the Ontario Government, to • do with the people of Ontario ? If Hon, J. R. Stratton and his asso- ciates would &ease for a time to speak of Mr. Whitney's anarchy and devote themselves. to doing the right thing with all sections of people this Pro- vince would be better served. We hear of representation and tax- ation and all that. The people of West Huron are paying taxes, pouring • in fee to. Provincial institutions, but just because - they think politically, they must be deprived cif represeaa- , If Mr. Whitney speaks , anarchially, and no one but Mr. Stratton has notic- ed it, we can easily see what has in- spired his madness. • • tion. • HULLETT TOWNSHIP. • Mr. Ed.
