The Great Chief addressed 3,000,000 people here toâ€"night. He said: "I denounce the Government for not putâ€" ting suflicient mucilage on the backs of the postage stamps.

Much ado is made by the Conservaâ€" tive press and party at the present moment about the increase of the pubâ€" lie debt under the Liberals. But the figures in this connection for the past eight yéars tell a tale which is, by comparison, far from creditable to themselves. Let us compare the debt increase during the last four years of Conservative rule with that for the same period under the Liberal adminâ€" istration. In 1893 the net debt of Canada was $241,681,000. In 1894 it had risen to $246,183,000; in 1895 to $253,074,000; and in 1896 to $258,â€" 497,000, an increase in four years of $17,000,000 in round numbers." The Liberals, therefore, found a debt of $258,497,000 when they came into office in 1896. In 1897 this had in~i ereased to $261,538,000; in 1898 to $263,950,000, and in 1899 to $266,273,â€" f 000. This year, 1900, there is a doâ€" crease of nearly $1,000,000 leaving the net debt at the present moment $265,600,000. Only three times siuce‘ Confederation has the revenue been sufficient to pay all the ordinary exâ€" penditure, the cbarges on capital acâ€" ‘ count and leave a surplus to reduce the debt. This year is the third time. The average increase per annum in the public debt during the last four years of Tory rule was $4,204,000, the average annual increase during a like period under the Liberals has been $1,775,000. _ With the revenue boundâ€" Ing up as it has done the last yearâ€"and it bids fair to continueâ€"the next few years will see a considerable reduction in our public debt. _ Increases in the debt will be unknown and the people will lose all interest in the word "deâ€" 1 ficit‘ because it will be a term fallen futo disuse, \ CAMPAIGNING WITH TUPPER The Montreal Herald prints the following dispatch: We want four years more of surâ€" pluses and public debt reduction.

The procession returned to Guelph, but scarcely had the bands of those who had borne the busband to his grave turned to their tasks ere they were called npon to perform the same sad duty for ber, who bad been his partner in life; for that same evening, as though eager t~ join her departed, she too, had slipped away from earthly friends. Her burial took place this afternoon. In many ways th6 acene was an imâ€" pressive one. Only two days had elapsed, and again did the same friends assemble They gathered at the same graveside, the same minister spoke of eternal things, the same children and grandchildren bowed in a~rrow, as they laid to rest Margaret Mitchell, the reâ€" lict of such a brief widowhood, beside her departed busband. Almost to wether they had come into the world, for there were only six months differâ€" ence in their ages, and now together did they leave the wor d.

The deceased were both among the oldest members of Knox Church, being 88 years of age. The Rev. W. E. Knowles officiated at both burials.
