following statement received the approval of tho Society at the Annual Conference held at Ontario the to the inclusive of Sixth Month view of the awfully demoralis ing results of the licensed bar poverty producing and home destroy ing of the treating system which- the open bar is the father of we the Society of Friends in this our annual conference held at Bloom- field do most earnestly advise our members where over located in Province to vote and use all their influence to banish the bar in Ontario including the sale of liquor in clubs as now advocated No political leader in our Pro vince has gone so far in his advocacy of the Temperance cuse as Churches and or ganizations have for years the banishment of the bar in Ontario We sincerely hope Christian and Temperance men will support the cause irrespective of party alliances we have a leader now who lias shouldered the re sponsibility of the proposition Outlifg for Boys A number of boys of the High School and the other schools in the Town expect to go over to Niagara Camp next week The Principal of High School will go along and assume charge of the party well as exercise full control over the movements of the boys During short

John Monro of MtAlhert the Officer announced nom inationclosed and that lie had grunted certificates to J M Wal ton and If Lennox as duly qualified candidates to represent North York at the approaching lections The petition of former was by- Mr P Pearson of Newmarket and Homo others thatof Mr Lennox by Mr John and about 00 others The Returning Officer an nounced that a poll will he open ed on the of Juno and pro- needed to rend the list of Depu ty Officers which com pleted his duties A public meeting then took place and on motion Mr Scn- was requested to preside Mr Lennox having engaged the Halt he permitted Mr Walton lo speak for one hour and he made good lime though interrupted the audi ence He spoke of person ality principles and platform- of Mr Howell who in lhe1 short space of 1 years has won for himself the esteem of the host people of the Provinceirre spective of party There must he some reason for men leaving their party lp support him in this election and it is found in this Mint what tile Conservatives fail ed to do with a majority of 70 in I he House he has the courage to attempt Reference was made to the Workmens Compensation Hill which Mr Howell introduced the refusal of the Government to enquire into the decline of Agri culture the lack of effort in the of Labor the indifference of the Govt regarding the- settle ment of New Ontario the penal izing of thrift and enterprise by paying no attention to Tax He- form the Social Service lack of prosecution of combines growth of Bilingual Schools and lack of enforcement of the lav the Prison Scandal and Whitewash of certain members in the House the sale of timber limits and covering up transactions refusal of Investiga tions grant of 5000000 to New Ontario and using three and a half millions for other pur poses He took Mr Lennox to task for voting in favor of giving two million acres of land for Railway Purposes when in his printed appeal to the electors in 1 he said he was opposed lo such grants Reference was made lo the financial conditions for while Conservatives boasted of doubling the revenue the expend itures had increased four times There was a cut of per cent in school grants the municipali ties are now obliged to pay for the keep indigent insane which was formerly paid by the Govt the Inheritance Tax is increased other institutions are taxed and these eventually come out of the people The expenditures have increased so fast that shortly no thing but direct taxation will he resorted The Revision of the Statutes cost 275000 double what they did under Reform Govt The records show that Mr Lennox was absent when votes were recorded and Mr Wal ton suggested that possibly he had loo much private business on hand to attend to public affairs Mr Lennox had been staling that for four years the Reform Gov ernment did nothing in the line of Temperance but in one year the Reform Government did more than the Conservatives have done ever since They swept out every saloon in the Province cut out licenses by raising the population standard reduced the hours of sale in creased the age of sale to boys from to restricted the loca tion of licensed premises Local Option was passed the Liberals in and in the first contest municipalities carried it in it was defeated cases wore before Iho courts for years but as soon as Hie valdity of the law was established the temper ance work was taken up again and that is the reason so much of the map displayed by Conserva tives is white notwithstanding the clause which the Whitney Govt placed against it Only for that clause more municipalities would have the benefits of Local Option and Au rora is one of them The speak er then proceeded show how he had endeavored lo help Local Op tion in his own Town while his opponent curried favor with both parlies Mr owe policy is up political dodge if lie is sus tained every bar in the Province will he wiped out and further re strictions will be placed upon shops giving the people of either the municipality or county to wipe them out altogether a majori ty vote under Local Option Tem perance people remember if the bars are not stamped out now it will lake a generation lo get back lo Ibis opportunity it J- 4 5 J Option vote Mr Walton said that the Board had their resignations written out but this was denied by Mr Ego and Or Mr Walton ask ed further explain the matter but was refused Mr Lennox was received with rousing cheers and was so grati fied at the warmth of his reception that he took off his coat and roll ed up his sleeves He denied any wrongful act- oh the part of the Govt and was proud of its clean record He did not see anything wrong in Mr accepting for election purposes from a government contractor only that the amount was too small lie defended the Umber lim it deal and Govt setting apart 1000 acres for which former Govt had sold He objected to appointment of Commissions which were for by Oppo sition as they had cost thousands upon thousands of dollars under the old Govt The ministers of the Whitney Govt were prepared to accept the responsibility He denied any interest either direct ly or indirectly in the Mann deal and declared lhat he only acted as an honest feeling that the constituency which he represented would be proud that he was selected as the solicitor in the face of hundreds of lawyers in the city He de clared that the Govt had at the present time a surplus of a mil lion and a half in its ordinary ac count and that increase of lia bilities were covered by assets in the and Hydroelec tric loans which were benefitting the whole Province Ho explain ed the reduction in rural school grants which was not because the Govt was granting less than the previous sum but because the salaries of leaohers Were higher which reduced the proportion Willi reference lo his absence from the House he explained thai the majority was so great it made no difference and many members remained in the smokingroom when the was taken Mr Lennox then I spent over an hour in trying to convince his temperance support- era that the Howell policy was only an election dodge to get into power that he was a temperance man but was afraid he could not qualify for a charter member lo the Lodge he promised for if Mr Walton would organize it in Aurora Mr Lennox gave vent to a great flow of wrath and some of his remarks will he received as in sults lo temperance people The Liberal party he said in hiding behind Hie Dominion Alliance and womens skirls Mr Lennoxs remarks about the ministers who have declared themselves on the temperance question were not well received even amongst some of his own followers These men whom we pay lo preach the gos pel of God are insulting the intel ligence of the people of Ibis Pro vince was of his remarks Other phrases were these men who are howling from their pul pits and these creatures who are shooting off from their pul pits Mr Lennox said that the Whitney Governments method of dealing with the liquor question was best although perhaps it is a little slow During the course of his re marks Mr Lennox misquoted Mr Mackenzie Kings speech of a few days previous At the close of his speech Mr King stepped for ward on the platform and asked lo make an explanation Lennox refused There were cries for Mackenzie King from the of the Hall and the man I lit IS How many of

Local King There were cries of Throw King out I and then a rush for the platform A light started on the platform and it looked for a moment as if the Tory mob would assault the Lib erals on the platform Mr Len nox however succeeded in re storing order hut not before many had left the Hall The old historic riding has seen many great political battles and even real fights but this was the only thing in recent years that approached the real old limes It was like one of the meetings of the trouble of said one oldtimer It was like it in more than the fight aspect too for it was a great party
