Senbr Francisco Ferdiega do Amaral, the new premicr of Portugal, was en- trusted by the boy king, Manuel, with trying to form a capable ministry for his distressed country a few days ai- ter the assassination of King Carlos. He became minister of the interior, a which, in Portugal, requires the most delicate handling, and has been able to gather about him a number of strong men and to calm the excitable Portuguese to some extent. He has been an admiral in the little navy of his country, and his frequent travels about the world have given him a broader understanding of government than any other Portu- guese statesman of the present era.

Howard Fer guson, M.I'Y., Grenville, and the candidate for the proviucial legisla. ture, W. F. Nickle. Mayor Koss was the chairman, and 'seated on the plat- form were a number of prominent con- servative workers, and a number of ladies. The proceeditics were enliven: ed by musical selections hy MeAuley's orchestra. Mr. Hanna and Mr. Fer guson spoke : at length, but the ad- dress of Mr, Nickle was quite brief, as it was 10:30 o'clock when the ' other two speakers concluded their remarks. Mayor Ross said that he felt quite sure in predicting the return of the Whitney government, and claimed that the government Jmd carried on the business ' in a businesslike manner. There had been no severe criticism of the government, and had it not been of a promising nature, the measures, he said, would have been more stren- wously opposed. "He. thought that both My. Pense > and My. Metcalfe should be retired, and that a yogng man be given a chance, with his young ideas. My. Werguson gave the Whitney gov: ernment great credit for abolishing the mimbered ballot, and credited the government with making great ad. vancement along educational lines, A large amount of money had heen ex- pended for edugation, but it was wise to make such expenditure. Thé "cost of school books had been lessened. The sale of timber limits had also been well regulated, the province receiving the true value, with a saving of dol- lars. The Northern railway guaran- cee and La Rose matters were both fair deals. He claimed that the howl set up by the opposition, regarding the La Kose deal was theatrical and | grand stand play. Some of the ex- Ipenditure had been criti¢ized, but the government was amply repaid for everything paid out. Credit was due the government in purifying the elec- tions, as all crooks had been prosecu- ted. A great deal had been done to- wards elevating public moral. The government had made some mistakes, but they were not wilful. The speak- er asked for support for Mr. Nickle in closing, and said that with proper or- ganization, there should be no doubt a® to the outcome. Mb. Manna said he was not present to talk politics, but to appeal for the support of the voiers for Mr. Nickle. When in opposition, the * government had a great deal to talk about. but now, when: in power, this was not the case. | The reason was that the govern- ment was too modest to boast The doing away with the numbered ballot had borne fruit, as it was the means of glevating the moral tone of the province. Sines the Whitney govern: ment came inta power there had been seven ov eight bye-clections, and in none of these Sad @ny complaint been made about fraudulent acts on the part of either liberals or conserva: tives. The government had carried out all its pledges, and had conducted the business on business principles.
