ACTION FOR LIBEL {RESULT OF THER FRONTENAC, NOMINATIONS. Dr. Edwards Says e Will Sue Mr. Avery For a Statement He Mede--There Was a Warm Time at the Meeting. The nomination meeting in Catara- | qui village hall, on Monday afternoon, iresulted in an action for slander be- ling threatened by Dr. J. | against Melzar Avery, M.P., who made | a statement to the effect that it was Dr. Edwards had received {money from liberals to keep quiet in | the campaign of 1904, and that he be- | hie ved this to be so. Dr. Edwards de- | nied the charge, and declared he {would give Mr. Avery a chance to | prove it in court. This chance, Mr. | Avery said, he would gladly accept. | The meeting was a big one, 500 per- isons being in attendance. In such a | contest, when two of one party are {opposing one another, the speeches were very much saturated with per- {sonalities, Mr. Avery briefly reviewed {some of the matters he had spoken upon'in parliament, but occupied most of his allotted time in reviewing Dr, Edwards' county council and political career. He made a number of charges, of which Dr. Edwards denied. Dr. Edwards, in his address, reviewed federal politics at some length, but also occupied some time in holding Mr. Avery in the limelight, dealing with his actions as county councillor and politician. There was quite an excited crowd present, the larger part of which was for Dr. Edwards, Cata- raqui being the latter's stronghold. Mr. Avery had a large following, how- ever, a number having come in from the back of the county. John Ryder, of Cataraqui, was and the speaking began shortly two o'clock Mr. Avery, as sitting member, was first to speak, and was well received. He stated that there were a great many questions asked why Avery was in the field against Edwards, when the latter carried the conservative con- vention. He claimed that the con- after vention had been called unfairly, that he had not fair notice, and that when {Dr. Edwards was nominated, he (the | | speaker), sat in the House of Com {mons for eight months as a discarded | member, It was well understood that | {a convention would not be called un- til an election was in sight, when he, | as sitting member, tice. As sitting member, he was en- | titled to consideration. He charged | {that Dr. Edwards had been preparing | for three or four vears to carry the | convention, while he had done noth- jing. Mr. Avery said the arrangement of selecting delegates was most un { fair. The large majority of de legates | chosen were selected because they were {favorable to Dr. Edwards. At the time Dr. Edwards was chos- | en, the speaker said he intimated would stand by the convention. did stand by the convention, but as | the liberals were not bringing out a i he decided to call another a larger convention, on October 26th, to decide who would re- present Frontenac in parliament.

Avery produced the letter of Dr. | Edwards' and showed that his state | ment was correct. | Mr. Avery further said that if a lib- eral had been in the field he would inever have run. His decision to op- pose Dr. Edwards was made only three weeks ago. At the convention before the last, when Mr. Avery was chosen, Dr. Ed- wards' friends had tried to manipu- ;late the ballots so he would win, but la Scrutintet of his (Mr. Avery's) dis- | covered the trick and the game was { killed. The speaker denied the state iment of Dr. Edwards that he had made {only one speech, and that on the $2,500 salary grab. He never spoke on | the indemnity question. He spoke on the cattle- -guard question, and did |something to improve the dangers {that farmers were up against. He also spoke upon the question of im- proving the railway crossings. He spoke upon the matter of better post- the north county, and had secured what he sought, and also better railway service for the people of Findley Station, in Pittsburg town- ship. He had always been willing to get what he could for the people. Mr. Avery said that, although in opposition, the Laurier government had ajways been willing to grant any- thing fair, whether asked by an op- position member or not. A Voice--" 'We want to know you are now?" Mr. Avery--"I'm the man who's go- ing to be 'elected as member for the county of Frontenac." (Applaise.) Mr. Avery further said he had voted and talked in the house against the timber deals, Mr. Avery charged ingratitude on the part of Dr. Edwards, who, he said, had forced Dr. Sands out of the jail surgeonship after that gentleman had helped him to get the county clerkship, and secured both positions for himself. He was taking the peo- ple's money for everything he did, and yet he told the people of From- tenac that he was "of the people and for the people." "What has Dr, Edwards ever done for Frontenac ?"' the speaker asked. Anything he had done for his party he had been well paid for. If there was a split in the conservative party | of Frontenac, he declared that Dr. Ec {wards was responsible for it. J. S | Gallagher, he declared, had paid the doctor for services, antl so had H. {Calvin and the late G. W. Bell. Mr. Avery charged that Dr. wards had refused four years ago to { help him in the election of 1904. He [heard that the liberal party had paid {him to keep quiet and not work, and | he believed it was true. | Dr. Edwards arose here and stated | that he never received one cent from | the liberal party to keep quiet or to {work against Mr. Avery in that elec- |tion. He declared he was prepared to |take legal action against Mr. Avery for making the statement, and would |do so as soon as he could get to a { legal office to do it. { Mr. Avery 'lf you want to bring it [into court, bring it, and there'll be {enough evidence shown that will cause [you a little surprise. " Dr. Edwards--"1_assure you I'll give { Mr. Avery the opportunity of proving !the matter in the courts."

What has Dr. Edwards ever done for the county ? asked Mr. Avery Mr. Avery said that Dr. Edwards had out of Loughboro and tried ito defeat Jabez Stoness, when the {latter had helped appoint mm county clerk. He had used his in fluence to defeat Mr, Tapping in the north county, He had also tried to unseat W Pringle and W. b Black from the council and failed, and was told by Judge Price ithat he was the last man who should try to do such a thing. Mr. Avery then took up the Van luven defalcation matter, whereby the county lost £31,000, and pointed out that Dr. Edwards was an auditor in 1892 and 1893 when the defalcation going on 1i he had done his Mr. Avery said he would have found it out, but he never reported that there was anything wrong, that the county council could act yet he announced himself "of people and for the people. | Mr. Avery concluded by fsking the electors for their support on the 26th. The speaker had conducted timber camps and had bought for years produce from all over the county, and he was more than Dr. | Edward "of the people and for the | people.

Edwards was vigorously cheer- ed when he arose to speak. He said that Mr. Avery had given little in- formation on federal matters, as mem- ber for Frontenac, but instead had devoted nearly an hour to abusing (him. Regarding | tion Dr. Edwards said it was iperly called. It was called by Mr. Langwith at the request of the township chairmen. The convention {of 1903 was called nearly a year be- {fore the election of 1904 and Mr Calvin sat in the house all time, and yet Mr. Avery was chosen candidate.
