Independent Conservative candidate in this rid-' ing, was held in Hanover on Monday night, the speaker, besides the can- didate, being Mr. W. S. Middlebro of Owen Sound, a former member of the House of Commons. Mr. R. J. Ball was chairman. and also deliverâ€" , ed an address. 4. .4- Mr. Middlebro placed himself on : record as being in favor of the far- mers organizing themselves into a society or association for business purposes, but he was not in favor of class government He favored the old party system, which has come down through the ages as ’one of the finest of British institu- tions. He could not agree that the system of group governnurnt was a good one and advocated the twoâ€" party system for a country like' Canada in which there were so many races, religions and dill'erent, Classes of people. Mr. Mhldlehru slmwed that. under the twoâ€"party system the farming: community had receivml more than it could t‘Xllt‘Ct oven unâ€" dcr the farmer group system. and [if perhaps it was not always to the cr credit. of the two old partics that it this was so. In the old days hoth m the Liberal and (Innscl'Vatch [iat'tii‘b‘ “- were fully aware of the strength of the rural “HP and catered to it ac- cordingly. It was under the two old lpartics that the representation of the rural districts was made about 5.000 to each rcprcscntatiw, while in the cities the proportion of l‘cpl‘c- suntation was about 15,000. In the last. election the tlnnschatiw party had polled something like 357,000 a VHU‘S, the Liberal party 336.00 and V the Farmer party 2260.000 votes. At i this. the (jonscrvatiwws with their 357,000 votes hail elected only 25 t memliiers while the l’arnmr party i with its 260.000 votes had ch-ctcd 55. The speaker cmitcndcd that. if group gowrnmcnt was to he the thing. then the cities would insist on a prnlmi'tionate i-cprescntation for their group. Mr. M?i4;li'llchm. however. thought the ideal form of government. was the two-party system in which t'ar- mvrs and mechanics, city and coun- try folk could mingle an'd legislate for the common wcal of the ['ll't.)\'lIlCt‘ at largc. Mr. h-liddlchro declared that not. one stipportcr ot' the Drnry Government could show that the tar- mers had ever been legislated againâ€" st by either of the old parties. It was wt‘ill-knwn, however. that the present government had made no at- tempt to solve. any of the farmers” difficulties and that as a matter of fact the farmers, after four years of class rule, were worse off now than in 1019. He pointed out the inconsistency of the Farmer party trying to hoodwink the Labor party into thinking that there was some- thing in it for them to line up with the Farmer candidates. The farm- er. like the manufacturer, is an emâ€" ployer of laborâ€"he wants to get his labor as cheaply as possible and sell his product at as high a price as it will bring’. This was perfectly nat- ural and no fault could he found with it. On the other hand. the lab- orer wanted to 80” his labor at as high a figure as he could command and buy his foodstuffs at as little as possible. This, too, was natural, and no fault could be found with it. The fault lay in trying to put these two different peeple to sleep in the same bed. Mr. Middlebro took the present Farmer members to task for their double dealing with the public. In 1919 they had gone in on a cry of economy. They knew that the in- demnity was $1400 but no sooner had they got. safely ensconced in" their seats in Toronto than they circu- lated the now famous “Round Robin" asking for $2,500! True. there were (11mm natix es and Liberals 011 it but ‘ the point \\ as that it was started and ' tinished under the Farmer hm e111- ment. Mr. Middlehro said that Dr. Jamieson had a phatograph of that “Round Robin.” and Dr. George Lee- son. the member for South (trey had signed it. His name was on it. He also criticised the Farmer Govern- ment for the $600 bonus and dwelt at some length on the Various Com- missions that had been appointed to do the business that should have been done by the Cabinet.

Instead, they ap- Qointed Commissions for nearly ev- erything of importance that came up and ran the country into a lot of unnecessary debt. The speaker closed his address} with the admonition that the voters should be careful in marking their ballots on election day. A vote for the Drury candidate, Dr. Leeson. meant approval of the policy of the past four years. A vote for Dr. Ja- lmieson, the Independent Conserva- ltivo candidate. meant a protest. Dr. Jamieson in his speech shat- tered the assertions of Government supporters. that there had been no extravagance, and the cry of Premier Drury and his otl’irors that the Pro- vincial Highways improvement, and otlmr rxponsos of the ('iovornnwnt. worn nut. being paid out of tho taxa- tion.
