Provincial Elections 1910 To the Electors of Centre Grey : Ladies and Gentlemen, â€" At a very large and representative convention held at Rocklyn, T was nomin.Ued to conteat the riding of Contre Urey in the interest of tho I' lilted Farmers of OutHrio, and I am in the ticld .isking for your votes a.s a firmer candidate to represent the constitaency in the next Lciialature of Ontario. It has beiii faUely stated that I was put forward as a noinineo in reility of the LibtTil politicians of this riding. I dj not kniw .ind have never known the Liberal leaders in Centre Grey lind have never been in communication with them, directly or indirectly. I lim contesting Centre Grey as a farmer candidate, ju-t as much i.i opposition to the (ithoial Liberal pirty a<i to the Couservaiive party. It appesrs to me thjit, under the prese:it party syitem, where one party has a suthciently p.nverful tuiijority to force its will upon the L'gis'ature, W4 ahall Lever have a proper discussion or appreciation of (juestions uftVcting the public as a whole. I sui'mit that ir would make for better govemiuenc if, insteai of the present two parties, we had in iidditio.-. a fmrly arong &yricultural !.nd a labour group indi'penJent of the old l-.iic puties. Wa ."iliould at all eventi have an intelliijent diicussioii of ([Uestions of interest to the farmer and lalorer, whc form the bulk of our population. As it ia now, these ate legislated upon in a m&uner calculated to advance party political interests, often to the detriment of the two groit and impiiiant sections of our people, agriculture and labor. Our pre.-ieiit l:ir!;e and iuoreasng provincial debt can only be reJuced by the mo.st rij4id economy. At prtsent we arc surroaiiuei by a riot of w»ite and cxtrav- a.^an.e. I unhesitatingly declare myself in favor of prohibition, whc!r I have tiiways suppirted. As the i-U'c'ions have been brought on at very short notice, I shall be unable to see or even address all the electo. s The petty taciics of our present goveru- ^ ment in delayioa iho iinnounceinent of the dato if the eeueral elec'.ions until aliiioyt the last moment, were, there is little doubt, cilculated to prevent a lair popular verdict liiiug <^\\t'H ui.d very clenily show that instead (f statesmanlike / wisdini, our p'e.st.nt rulers are Do.s^e.ssed rather of :i lowcunnin;^ uubeouiiuij luea ^ who guide such large destinies. ^.
