Lity Hau Satur~ arn WAS EX/HASIASN FOR EX ATLE ADDRESSES WERE MADE BY SEVERAL VISITORS. . P. Graham, Brockville, Show- ed What Good Laws the Lib- erals Have Had Enacted-Mr. Lindsay K.C., Toronto, Told How Conservatives Manufac: tured Evidence. 3 A largely attended and very enthu sinstic rally was held in the city hall on Saturday night. Despite it being & busy night for merchants, business men and their employees, and the fact that it was ushered in: by a severe thundprstorm, the attendance was very pleasing, indeed, to the liberals. The 14th regimental band was present and contributed good, music. John McKelvey, président of the re form amociation, occupied the chair. In his opening remarks he stated that as the conservatives, had told their side of the question at a meeting last ¥ ral side would now be presented, "When ou hear the liber- al, spedkers,"S concluded the chairman, you, will probably come so the con. Shion, that a change is not desir- Alderman J, M. Pareell was the first | speaker, id he swrprised his most arden) ad tars by his forceful argu grasp of the ques he day. He took up the & lox: ngs' ery, end showed thes , Cato plicable now, as it had been jn 1 shen tbe tories at Ottawa, Yih ealling each others traitors, ir ing dor office and prac tising wholesale corruption, Even the powedul English papers spoke strong v against the conservetives at that time, the London Graphic remarking that Tammany Hall smelled sweet be- wide stench of political corruption at Ottawa. It was time for a change then, but no such conditions prevail now. Do: we find any charges made against the liberal government 7 All wer find is the ery : "It's time for a change." Jt would be just as reason. able to say to.the directors of . an enterprising and progressive stock company : "You have heen in power for. thirty years and should make room for others." The liberals have a divine right to rule, as tories say the liberals think. But the divine right is. the will «of 'the people. They have that right. The speaker defend- ed the expenditures made by the gov: ernment, and pointed out the incon- sistency of Whitney. The comervative leader said he would initiate five or six agricultural colleges in Ontario, and yet not increase the expenditure' He opposed in parliament but three quarters of one per cent, of the , mil Lions expended, showing that there was nothing for him to oriticise, . He voted against the building of rail- 'ways to open up New Ontario, "and the establishment of an immigration office at Liverpool for the murpose of supplying settlers for this new land, 1 speaker then referred to the charges of corruption, showing that the tories were past masters in this art: Dr. Beattie-Neshitt, Toronto, one of the chief leaders in the conserva- tive party, o to sell the purity of thig land for a judgeship. A gentle- man who was adwertised to speak at a condervaiive meeting here last week, but whe failed to appear was eonviot- ed of voting twice in South Hast ings, fined and sent to jail for do iM #0. These were the kind of men who were preaching purity | Not one charge of corruption has ever been Rrgught home to a member of the Ross government. It is not time for a change either in. the province or in this constituency. (cheers). "Liberals elected: My. Ponso unani- mously some: time ago, and he show- ed himself ably equipped to do hid duty in the legislature," said Mr: Farrell, amid applause. "He is a man who has been a Kingstonian, first, last and all the time. He has = at all times worked faithfully and energeti cally lor the city and the liberal par- ty; without ask for or expecting reward. Our friends the tories ne knowledge that the government will be retawrned to power, We know it, too {choars). © § are growing daily for our candidate. On the night of the 20th we will return My. Pense with a large majority." George P. Graham Speaks. In introducing George FP. Graham, M.P.P, for Brockville, and the able editor of thes Brockville Recorder, the i to him a4 one of ee . TE pe from doing lots of things," was the prompt reply, while the andience cheered lustily. "He slso voted for a thorough development policy. which will help the Kingston dairy school and Queen's college, He did many vth- er things thet would take me an hour and more to tell" The speaker next turned his atten- tion to the labor legislation of the liberal government. Capital and labor should 'go hand in hand, The finest forest was not worth a cent until touched by the hind of labor, and prepared for the market. Any gov: ernment that provides laws to pro tect the rights of labor is a govern: ment that demands the support of every laboring man. the trades council in Brockville a few weeks ago Ralph Smith, M.P., labor leader in the house of commons and congress, said that Ontario had the best system of labor laws in the kdown world. A. W. Wright, chief or: ganizer of the lsbor party, said On tario im this matter was rad liberal government mechanics: lien law, making it possi- ble for a mechanic. who works on. a building to place a lien against that contractor fails or skips out, The liberal government gave employee a right to have months wages paid him before a. di vision of the estate of the company or firm for which he worked, made. Hundreds of thousands of dol lars in wages had thus been saved The poor man was also protected against garnishee. There are when a poor man gets under and if was not protected in way he would never rise and get go- ing again on an ordinary. day's any harrow, a law that wages cannot be' garnish ced above $25. The girl who works in the, kitchen has also been protected. Tf she leaves or is discharged and all her wages are not peid, she cannot afford wait two or three. months. till divi sion court meets, The government has given her power to issue a summons, and if the money is not paid; to seize the goods belonging to her em plover, * These are a few of the good the liberals have made," said Mr. Graham. The conservatives have giv nh you promises One ounce of per formance is worth 75 tons of promises made on the eve of an cle tion. The tories never did anything to protect labor. Ia. the eighteen years of their power at Ottawa they placed only one law on the statute book respecting labor, and that was that every man could - Knock off on Sept. 1st, and calebrate labor day. The liberal house of commons passed a bill giving 'the union label the same stand ing as the trade mark, but the dear old tory senate killed the bill. The Ontario government, some years. ago, established a bureau of industries, and put Mr, Glockling, a strong: union man, at the head of it, where informa: tion could be secured concerning all labor questions. . The Labor Gazette hes also been established at Ottawa one of the best labor magazines in any country... The government ought to. be supported by. the working, men Lol Ontario (eheers)." # Mr. Graham next took up the surplus question, and showed that Ontario had a surplus of $2,500,000, He next defended the palpwood policy 'of the government, declering that it had neither given away, sold or leased one foot of pulp land except on which mills gould bé built. © The pulp-wood could not be exhausted in $0 years by all the pres- ent factories working might and day. We have a great heritage here three times bigger than New York--and we should vise : above the small, petty issues. The liberal party, the speaker declared, has nothing to. fear in the charge of corruption. Mr. Pense should be supported, and the province developed. 1 trust you will vote and work for Mr. Pense (cheers). ------ Mr. Pense's Address. Edw. J, B. Pense, who was received with beartiost applanse, thanked the audience for attending on such an inclement night to. greet his (Fixiting frifnds. It was known, perhaps, to sven few in the hall that the pre vious speaker, his "chum," George Graham, was a Frontenacer, having been born on Wolle Island. Alter hearing him. they would with pride add. him to. the roll of able men to the credit of the old county. He had hoped to address them on broader. and higher questions than those to which some of his. oppowints had Brought the contest, but the old Adam had shown itself at that meeting in the demand as to what be had dose lust seswion." He had not once in print or platform made a claim to reward or praise for these services. but in view. of this challenge he might fairly be excused if he dwelt upon them. He then detailed the public measures passed and their importance, the num- her of private bills considered In com mittee. having close relation to King- ston's interests, including the medical council, engineering society, Ontario electric Tadway, (the greatest line of © its class ever passed in Conada and 'a Kingston pro Jeot), Bay of Quinte: railway, regula on cof taxation of mw ures.

This receint was signed by G. W. Ross, and coun tersigned by Duncan Bole, whom the Mail suid was a fugitive from justice pow living in lamaica, where he is the agent of the company.

To SY that he should be turned down simply because some people say it is time for a change is about the silliest king of nonsense, 'Mr. Pense," anid the speaker, "is a wan any man or province might he prova of.

Mel, Mowat then read a letter which Hon. E. J. Davies, minister of crown lands, had written to Mr Pense on April 22nd last, and which set at rest the silly talk of conservg tives that the veteran land grants were a fake. The letter stated that everything was being pushed forward a® fast as possible. There was over whelming opposition from veterans from all parts against one certificate being issued until all. could be sent out. at once. Arrangements bad been made for the veterans to inspect the lands at the leapt possible expense You may be satisfied to know that several members of the opposition sx pressed themselves as perfectly ss fied that we should not =ign one cor tifieate until all were ready. At the conclusion of the resqing of the letter, Mr. Mowat made a hwiof address. The only policy the had here, he said, was that Shaw wus a decent fellow. Ne obie denies 1hat. But we want something more than that. . We want to Jook at the leader and the course he will pursue in the jegislature.

He Thrashed 115 Scholars in One Day. Richmond Dispatch," «+ A Connecticut schbelymaster thrashed forty-nine scholars in' dpe day, and the Nutmeg siate papors are bragging that he broke the record. He may have broken the modern record, but not that of the 'better days of the re public." Just before the war between the states the late Richard Anderson more than doubly overtopped Connecticut man's performance. Tt was when he was classical assistant to Wil liam Dabney Stuart, whose school house was an the north side of Clay gtrect, between Fifth and Sixth Stuart was sick, and "Ol Dick," as the assistant was affectionately ealled for he was as line a man as ever lived ~~was running things alone. The boys, about 115 in number, in dulged in a concerted and excessive outburst hilarity and devilment, and Anderson vowed Ly the shades of some dozen or more Latin and Greek authors that if they repeated it he would wallop the whole party. We did repeat it, and Anderson, who had ex pected the repetition, and armed him seli with a bundle switches cut from the trees in the yard of the Ger man Lutheran church on sixth street, proceeded to keep his vow in fast and furious style, The scholars ranged in age from ten to seventeen and eighteen years, and not one escaped, It was a ciecus while it Jasted, and the yowls and Janghter evoked by the occasion might have been heard squares off. When the last of the boys had been dressed down Anderson was so exhausted that we had to turn in and fan him with Mitchell's atlases to prevent him from fainting. of of Odessa Occurrences.
