-------------- Sort BntarioBhserher ONLY ONE DOLLAR A YEAR JAMES BAIRD . . . Editer. PORT PERRY, JUNE 20, 1878, Hold the Fort. The efforts now being put forth by Alex. Mackenzie & Co., to hold the parliamentary fort at Ottawa are no less unscrupulous than determin: ed and by their daily acts they ap- pear as if they would rather blow up the whole thing than surrender it. They entered the fort in disguise passing themselves off as the patriot army and the people welcomed them with a shout. But scarcely had they got possession of the fortress ore their hypocrisy displayed itself, the deceivers threw off their masks, turned against the people and have proved thomselves a band of extruvagant nobodies.-- And now the time is again at hand when the electors shall declare by their ballots whether that "organized hypocrisy" shall continue to hold the fort or whether they shall be driven from it, the garrison are making frantic efforts for defence. Mackenzie & Co are cmploying * every means however unscrupulous and dishonest to maintain positions which on every principle of right and justice they have forfeited a thousand times. But what they lack ability political honesty they seek to make up in cunning. The sly Philip, king of Macedon, made it his boast that "the golden key would open the gates of any city and that with an ass load of gold he could take the The sly following tho un- their guns in and most impregnable fort." Mackezie & Co. worthy example of Philip are trying to defend the fort by the golden process and are squandering the peoples' money on the right hand and on the left with the view of making themselves friends 'of the Mammon of unrighteousness" so that they may at any price secure a new lease of power. The Ottawa Government with their satellites of the Ontario Gov- ernment are putting forth a eombin- od and desperate effort to blind and and deceive the electors with the view of securing their votes at the coming election so that they may have another five years of tho luxe _ury and extravagance of office. -- Now that the term ot office ot the Ottawa Government is drawing to a close one might naturally expect that before asking a renewal of con fidence that the members should be able to give a satisfactory account of their acts during the past five years. This they carnot do and dare not attempt, but when asked to point to a single mousure they have carried in the interests of the country they will at once fall back upon the resources of ancient history referr- ing to a time when the Government buildings were burned at Quebec and 'a Governor General stoned, or they may come down to modern times and remind us of the "Pacific Scandal." That the present Gov- ernment do not attempt to defend their course which is now univer: sally admitted to be indefensible ir in no way surprising, but it is the very depth of contemptible meaness to seek to deceive the electors by making them believe that by retail- ing the sins and shortcomings of the past Government that they are there by vindicating the corruption, ex- travagance and mirrale of the pre- sent. Admitting for the present the _trath of all that is urged by the pre- sent Government against their pre- decessors in office is that any vindieation of the corruption, waste, and miserable misrule of the present Government ? The question with the electors is not what past Gov. ernments may have done but what is he present doing, are they rulling wisely, economcially and aivan- fageously, are they conducting' the government in the best interests of the country, and is the country prospering under their rule? These sim lar questions ought to be ory elentor ero he) nment is not other we spéak of electors in general It is in our power as electors to say who shall hold the reins of govern- ment and it is at our peril to allow party predilections, or personal pre. ference to so warp our judgment as to induce us to cast our vote in any other way than that which will secure the greatest amount of good chise is a trust committed to our keeping not to be exercised accord- ing to our own whims or prejudice but tors in general, in the bost in- terests of the untranchised, the weo- in the best intersts of the elec men and children, with a view to the present good and fature prosper- ity of the country. Those who live on their wit and sponge on the country may use their franchise to forward their unworthy aims but the honest industrious taxpayers can bave only one object in view--the good of the country, and if not de- ceived and misled they will so east their votes asto secure these objects. eE---- The Average Elector. There are seasons when the posi- tion of elector is of more than ordin- ary The municipal elector takes an annual in popularity, all the aspirants for importance. rise municipal honors know him ; he is recognized, saluted and almost em- braced ut every turn for at least a month He is coneulted and his advice asked on the more important municipal before the elections. matters. This is continued during the three or four weeks previous to the elections, but when the elections are over all intimacy is at once Jis- continued and some how or other the average elector is again forgotten and the office holder soars in an- other and higher atmosphero till the close of the year. But tho vicissi- tudes of the parliamentary elector aro still more marked he is not known nor even seen by the M. P, or M. P,P. during the years that tho parliament lasts, nothing is known of him until another election draws near whon be is again regard- ed with the utmost consideration by the several applicants for his vote and influence; and he that had not been known or acknowledged for yoars is broughtright to the surface, fairly overwhelmed with praise and stuffed with promises until the vole is again given and then the average elector may go to grass for another term of years. But ofall the electioneering fruuds that were ever attempted those now being practised by the members of the present Ottawa Government and In order to get at the electors more their runners cap the climax. conveniently and to hug them more closely under tho mesmericin- fluences, Mackenzie & Co. with their ordinary craft have divided them into classes in order to apply a stick- ing plaster to each. The aristocrats are promised casual advantages. To the merchant and manufacturer no apology is offered for the tagnation of trade which if not created greatly aggravated by the wasteful and stupid policy of the Mack- enzie Government. They cannot even attempt to palliate the wrongs they havedone and are now doing to the country but they cunningly point to the unworthy acts the Gov: ernments of days gone by ; and while they cannot deny the fact that at no time in the past history of Canada have mercantile pursuits been so unsafe, unsatisfactory and un profit able as they are at this day still with a coolness amounting to im- pertinence Mackenzie & Co tell the merchants that there's a good time coming. When the disconsolate manufacturer points to his rasting machinery and locked up factory and asks why the tariff is not adjust- ed so as to encourage our manufac- turers ? The insolent office seekers reply that free-trade Britain is the most wealthy and most prosper- ous country in the world and that protection would not accomp- lish the desired object, but if the country will only give them another term at the flesh pots they will do something deperate for the good of manufactures. When begging the | euppore of the farmers the feeders Government crib bave another ; When the far asks it is that American grain ther products are allowed to be wie into this country free of duty whilst the farm produets of this *| Country are heavily taxed when takon fo the States? With charag- manifest their appreciation of the by trains and otherwise, to the greatest number. The fran- | tected a large manutacturing popu- knowing glance they whisper to the farmers to keep shady that these fellows over there--the merchants and manufacturers--are clamoring for protection and if the farmers gett so must they and then farmers must pay more for their goods. -- They don't tell our farmers that if our chief manufactures were pro- lation would gather in and create a home market for farm products which would prove of great advant- age to the farming community and recompense them ten times more than the little extra price they will have to pay for their goods.-- But Mackenzie & Co's treatment of the working men crowns the absurd. ity, they have brass enough even to approach the working men and seek to plaster them over on purpose to secure their. suffrages in order to renew their lease of power. Do they suppose that the working men are so bliud or indifferent to the fact that to the stopid, sinister policy of the Mackenzie Government mainly to be attributed, the unenvi- able position mn which the working- are men of Canadas have been placed for the past three years. Employ- ment has been difficult, almost im- possible to be obtained; employers have been exacting and wages have been reduced to starvation poiut; hundreds of them are walking the streets baving nothing to do and po prospect of getting anything. They are deprived ofall the luxuries and of not a few of the necessaries of life, many of them and their families are actually suffering from want.-- Still in the face of all this we have Mr. Mackenzie adding to injury by daring to present himself before the working men insult and in place of acknowledging the guilt of himself and his Government and begging pardon for the injury done the working men be secks to play sharp with them and nauseate them with a rehash of his oft told tale of the "Pacific Scandal" and other such interesting topics of the past, knowing as he must do that the fall of Babylon bas quite as much bearing on the present condition and prospects country. What has the burning of the parliament tuilding in Montreal, the stoning of the then Governor General or the more mod= ern farce of the Pacific Scandal got! to do with the blundering extravag | ance of the present Government ?-- Working men are not simpletons to bedeceived by any such trash or listen with patience to any such clap trap. They know that the rule of Macken- zie & Co. means scarcity of employ- ment, low wages, qppression and privation, and unless they desire to have these continued and aggra- vated they will atonce withdraw their support from a Government whose tendencies aro all in that direction. 8 A Note of Welcome.

Wright--that gentleman is well able to defend himself--but to allow to go uncontradicted a charge the very opposite of true would be unfair to the public and unkind to Mr, Wright. No one acquainted with that gentleman will charge him with being satisfied with anything less thao the very utmost cent which can be secured 'or any constituency he represents, Were veo to be so uncharitable we might charge he Whitby friends with preferring to forgo the grant to their own school rather tian allow Port Perry to get it, But whileap- indi offer a hearty and united wel 3% this fine battalion, its officers com- missioned and non-commissioned, and men and hope that their season of drill may prove pleasant and profitable in a military point of view and that their sojourn amongst us may be satisfactory and agree- able to all. The worthy Colonel and his staff are displaying a highly commendable zeal for the prosperity of the battalion and in the interest of a patriotic and military spirit in the county by bringing the annual drill back from the frontier, and this at a great inconvenience to most of the chicf officers of the battalion. -- The Agricultural grounds at Whitby are infinitely more suitable in every particular for this annual muster than any place that can be obtained at Port Perry or any other where in the county out of Whitby; still with a view to infusiug a more live: ly interest in military matters throughout the county, the authorities have not hesitated to forego the many superior advantages P te more strongly that the latter is correct, we would not chirge them with anything of the kind ; they are neither so foolish nor so short sight as attempt anything of the sort, Our Bread shall be Given and Jur Water shall be Sure.
