We commend it to them and` would sayfurther, if you prefer Sir Wilfred Laurier s govern- mentto that of the Conservative party, you may still unite in supporting an independent government at Toronto under Mr. Whitney's leadership. ?And further you will nd that such an ad- ministration will serve Ontario s best interests at this time in a manner greatly superior to a government under Mr. Hardy, dependent upon and in close` alliance with such men as Tarts, Fielding, Blair, and the worst elements of `the Liberal party at Ottawa. When Sir Oliver leaves Ottawaheaven help Ontario should Tarte and Hardy re- main in ofce. ' __ 't`_` is one inwhich Con- servatives - and ->Reto_rmers I should all `-_unit`ein order that there may be here in ' onadq a `government _independent of the government `at Ottawa, Gon- servatives may prefer, I know a great` many of; them` do, Sir John Macdonald and his policy to Edward Blake and his "policy. , am sorry they do. If they had more light am sure they V would not, and a great many Conserva- tives are discovering that, and are act- ing accordingly, but even those Cone servatives who. believe in the policy of Sir John Macdonald and prefer the present. Dominion Government toany other, may i still unite at this crisis in supporting an indefzendent Government here, because there are great matters with which we have to deal which ab solutely require, for the sake of On- tario s interests that the Provincial Government should be entirely inde- pendent of the government at Ottawa. N ow there are a variety of cases by which I `might illustrate the manner in which the Dominion Government have dealt with the Provinces, and show the absolute necessity in the in- terests of this Province that there should be an independent Government here under no obligation to Sir John Macdonald, and who have a policy en- tirely Provincial in regard to the terri- tory and Provincial rights. I . .Mr. Mowat in 1eee._ V '.Seekiugot`.e' in_eeting_ Toronto on the 18th of December, 1886, just prior to the provincial elections `ot that year, Sir Oliver Mowat is_ quoted in the Globe of the 20th as follows :- Nonmimn ` ADVANCE; _ 3 ___.--_ wvrv-.nvV\l_ UV` gate the 1.; July, 1896, hnjnpoias gnet will terlnipute Ttinleaq.Je=xjen'ded 9Ii ilig o"xpii-`u,i9n_ .91` `v-4 `jail-3],` from ili Changes in the Militia`.

We therefore beg your honorable body to reconsider your late action in this matter. Signed on behalf of the teachers at South West Simooe. Why, therefore, should a few pupils who are fortunate to live in a town where there is 9. High school receive special favors, while pupils from rising towns and villages are ignored ! 3: It has been argued that the cost of examiners and stationery in this county is too great, namely; six hundred dollars. From ascertained facts the eight centres in S. W. Simcoe, out of a total of thirteen, in 1897 cost only $170. On the other hand, in the in-' spectorate of S. W. Simcoe for the year 1897 there were ve hundred pupils who presented themselves for examina- tion. At a low estimate the increase_ of cost to each pupil would be three dollars, making a total of fteen hun- dred dollars, a large sum compared with present expenses. Feeling it our duty to look efter the educetion'el'interes'tein this inei)`eotor- ate,i we desire to call your attention to a. few `of the arguments that may `be given to show that aid notion on your part inot in the best interests of the retepnyere of . this county. pane-on-an 1.VThere is-not in the S.W.

They; called the Trust funds held by the Do-' mloion and which belonged to the Pro- vince since confederation, surplus, though not one dollar of it is now, or- ever has been, available to draw upon having surplus money to draw upon when decits stared them in the face because of reckless expenditures they have been compelled year by year for a long period to borrow money to carry on public a'airs.

Mr. Hardy e turgid speeches, `his ridi- cule of men ` more honest and quite as able as himself will not go down with the people. He can never atone for the deception he has practised on the country. He lived on the fame of Sir Oliver Mowat, but now that Mr. Mowat is no longer at the helm the people have no- longer any condence in the government and demand a
