200 month he but been born with an. an- cello Spirit which he does not possess. and We know he does,not possess. Sir Charles Tupper went down to the City of Quebec. and he promises the people a railway across the St. C'harlen River. Has the hon. gentleman not read that ? Does in not know It to be true' ? Yet he goes (lmxn from this House and at- tends Committee meetings with the same hon. gentleman. I say he should not do it. He must choose his' own as- sociates: T shall not choose them for him. He loves these assooiatiorts: he equally loves association with ex:ll_myn. I Icharge. my" hon. friend with trelying all his associations every year of his political' life by'the resolution which he has moved in this House. I tell my hon. friend that I want his attention. He has never heard such a moral lec- ture since he entered political life. The resolution is a travesty upon every word ' spoken by my hon. friend" on the political plat- form of the party with which he is associated. It is a travesty i.pon his associations with. the leader of that party., And I. forsooth. cannot go down to tho trwn of Madoc. cannot associate with the most intelligent men in that wince. and tell them to send a bright mm to Parliament. but I must tell them to elect a man who would vote to turn the. Government out of omce. Does ho take lllfr for an idiot? (Ministerial cheers and laughter.) What was my hon. friend doing in the County of North Hastings? Was he telling them to sen-.1 a supporter of the Govern- ment or to elect a man who would put them out of power ? Wits the h." gentleman telling the." that it he Rot mto power he would do something ? Perhaps he did not say so in so many words. but what does ho mean hy C'O- ing through the country unless in- (the header of the Opposition) would do something for them. something .good for the country. something that would he better for the country than what We would do? Impliedly or outspokenly. it is practically the same thing. And n-y hon. friend calls that a. frank. out. spoken policy. There is not a word of " whhh I take back, not a word of. " whirl. is dishonorable, not a Word which would have reflected upon Jt Gladstone or " Salisbury. not a Wort? which would have reflectcd uprn tho purest public man. (Ministerial cheers.) I used language plain and not to be misunderstood, language which eVer;.' Minister is expected to use. Yet I must have a resolution broadly fratwrct with a view to condemning myself awi my leader. and putting the Libern' party in a. false position. I could trivo my hon. friend another leaf from lvm. iory. Thonmst angelic form. it seems to me. which floats through this Charts her is iho form of the minted Sandiield iiacdonuid-ua man whose name swerv- body nwntions With reverence. or ought to do so. His name hon. gontivmm op- poaite use to conjure with. sandileld Macdonald's Example. If there was extravagance elsewhere '3tutufletd Mucdonaid wag economical. it there was virtue. BttnMtyld Macdonald was virtuous. and under the authority at his name they have conjured fur 27 years. but.not very successfully. Still they continue to, conjure with his proper question? fa this in the public interest ?" No. He wanted to know what Strathmy had done for him? (Ministerial cheers.) That was one ot the saints at whose shrine my hon. friend offers incense, and under whom he served when he was a more youth- ful and a more innocent man than he is to-day, although his virtue was not less promising. Then, again, when a certain institution was asked to be started in the City at Hamilton, Sand- field Macdonald sail it should not go there: that unless the City of Hamil- trm altered its way politically ho would so? the grass grow in the City of Ham- ilton before he granted their desires.

What did he say when laying the corner- stone of the Deaf and Dumb Institu- tion ot Belleville? He said: "This in- stitution would never have been plan: ed here were it not for the support the peop!' of Hastings have given me aq a number of the Samifleld Macdonnald Government." .You will find that in tho panel's of the time. These are the ideals w1rirm, my hon. friend, the leader ot the Opposition, worships, These are the aimes that he conjures with. I advise my hon. friend to read up his history a little. to s_atudyr his associa- tions at little better, to keep his gar- ments less soiled by contact with the lenders of his own party. Let hint wash himself complete and cleanse lumiolf of his evil ways: wash hie "Ends in innocence.
