East Victoria Liberal litigating. The meeting of the Reform Associa- tion of East Victoria was held, accord- ing to announcement, in Dickson's hall last Friday afternoon; but, owing to the exceedingly unfavorable weather, the attendance, though fair, was not what it would otherwise have been. The chair was occupied by the worthy be given the moral and intellectual sup- port of the people of the T. V. C. dis~ trict, the Premier in his reply reminded them that “ a Government could not live on moral and intellectual support alone ! "~which \vas about as plain a hid for votes as he could make, and it is a pity that no one relorted by reminding him that pl‘OmleCS alone will not build the canal. M r. Hangart said he bellow ed in the canal, the cost of which a re- viscd estimate had put at only four million dollars. that he intended to put a portion of the work under contract this fall, and that if the Conservative Government remained in power the canal would “some day ” be completed. ‘Sir John Thompson said that Mr. flag- gart had spoken the sentiments of the whole Government. and he (Sir John)‘ hoped before he left office to go through the completed canal, which would be built "as fast as the resources of the country permitted.” That the delegates would receive a courteous reception and be treated to pretty talk was a foregone conclusion; but that the promises made 'will be kept is, judging from the past, exceedingly doubtful. For our part. we have no faith in them, but, should work on. the canal be resumed, will joy . fully admit that we were mistaken. President, Mr. James Dickson, who E continuance of their patronage. THOS. ROBSON. Eeuclon Falls, March 19th, 1894, opened the proceedings with an excellent , and somewhat lengthy address, at the ' conclusion of which he was reelected President, Mr. E. Lytle Vice-President and Mr. W. T. Junkiu Soc-Treasurer ' for the ensuing year. One of the objects e of the meeting was to nominate a candi- date to represent the party in the ap- ‘ proachiu'g election for the Assembly; but the injudicious nomination of a Patron candidate has so mixed and muddled things that there was a differ- ence of Opinion as to what was the best course to pursue, and after Mr. . James Junkin, Mr. Barron, Mr: James Dickson, Mr. A. C. Campbell, Mr. E. Fitzgerald, Mr. J. A. Ellis, Mr. E. Smitheram, Mr. George Martin, Mr. Joseph Pearn and others had expressed their views, it was Moved by W. T. Junkin, seconded by E. Fitzgerald, That the Reform Asâ€" sociation for East Victoria, under the circumstances, deem it inadvisable to inomina-te a candidate to contest East Victoria, and this association is of the. opinion that the members thereof should be left at liberty to act and vote as they think proper, unbiased and uniuflucnced by any action of this convention.â€" Carried. After a second address by Mr. Barron, the following two resolutions were put and carried unanimously :â€" Moved by George Martin, seconded by James J‘unkin, That the association of' East Victoria rejoice to acknowledge the great and invaluable services of the Hon. Wilfrid Laurier and his noble following in the House of Commons, and pledge ourselves to support them in their determined efforts to make Canada a country for the masses and not for the classes. We recognize with pride and gratification that rumor has never connected the name of Wilfrid Lnnricr with scandal, there has never been im- putcd to him any vice, and the Liberal party recognize in him a leader of' whom Worth Its Weight in Gold. The special dairy bulletin just issued under authority of the Minister of Ag‘ riculture, Hon. John Dryden, from the Department of Agriculture, Toronto. application to which will bring to any, one who will write name and address. a copy, is worth its weight in gold. After an elaborate treatment of the whole of the questions that are raised by chl- f'ashioned farmers when butter and cheese making is advocated as an ad-~ vantagcous adjunct to the present sys- tem of grain growing, if it is not a satisfactory substitute for that exhaus- tive and at present most unprofitable .kind of farming to follow in Ontario, this timely bulletin ends with a series of ten conclusions that clinch the argu» ment for the cow. They are : 1. Prices for grain have fallen over 30 per cent.. in ten years;, prices for butter and cheese have fallen less than six per cent. ‘ 2. Dairy farming is less exhaustive- thnn grain farming. The sale of-butâ€" .tcr removes nothing from the soil. In fact by dairying the lost fertility of the soil may be restored. 3. Ontario is well adapted to dairyâ€" ing. We produce now 90,000,000 lbs. .of' factory cheese, 3,000,000 of cream- cry butter, and about 50,000,000 of dairy butter. While Canadian dairy exports have been increasing those of the United States have been decreasing. 4. Our principal butter competitors in the British market are Denmark, France and Sweden. Victoria and New anland are rapidly increasing their ex- ports to Britain, exceeding those front Canada. 5. Whereas our best creamery brings as high price as Danish cronmery in Britain. our cXports averaged over be. per pound less than the Danish exports. Our exports to Britain, therefore, conâ€" .sist largely of butter of inferior quality. Doors, Sash, --â€"ANDâ€"-~ UNDERTAKING. W. M‘Keown’s9 FRANCIS ST. WEST. FENELON FALLS. If’l‘hc Fâ€"cnclon Falls Gazette. , Friday. May 25th, 1894. A Political Moss. The Provincial elections are to be held on the 26th of June, four weeks from next. Tuesday, and, as a result of the bad mess made in politics by the uprising’in their wrath of the Patrons of Industry and the P. P. A's, the Lib- erals of East Victoria decided at their meeting in Dickson’s hall last Friday that they would not put a candidate into the field. To have done so would have made the “ confusion worse con- founded,” and would have been playing into the hands of Mr. Carnegie, the Conservative nominee. The other can- didate, Mr. Thurston, was a Liberal until the Patrons adopted him, but what he is now depends, we suppose, upon what his proprietors are, and what they are appears to be unknown to‘such . of them as wc-havc asked to define their position. The truth is, as we have said half" a dozen times, they can derive no benefit whatever from sending rcpresen- ' 'tativcs to Toronto, as the grievances of which they justly complain must be roe dressed at. Ottawa ; and it is impossible to believe that the farmers of Ontario Gan cherish feelings of enmity against the Government which has done so much for them. The Patron candidate in South Oxford said he did not think the Ontario Government deserved any credit for doing their duty; but as he admits that they have done their duty, he surely cannot wish to turn them out and put the affairs of the Province into the hands of men of the same Those are surrs AT CLARK & SON’S. , MADE UP IN THE LATEST FASHION.

As far as Ontario politics are concerned, the Patrons appear to have no platform what- ever, and while the Liberals can only attribute their desire to get into the House of Assembly to sinister motives. theConservativcs look upon them with doubt and dislike. Mr. J. C. Whitney,- Q. C , M. P.

To show that We have made only a. fair beginning in dairying, it may be stated that the avorage value of cheese made per head of the rural population in Ontario is 88; while Leeds, Grcn villc and Oxford average 832 per head. 10. In grain growing we are com- peting in foreign lands with the pro- ducts of the cheapest labor in other countries; in beef and mutton also we compete with the products of cheap land; in dairyiug we are competing with the Work of more skilled labor, and with theproducts of high priced land. The outlook for duirying, there. fore, in Ontario is promising, provided we can produce a constant supply of uniformly good articles, namely, lino factory cheese and fine creamcry butter. ._,...

Mr. Lcitch is not the only one by a good many thousands who is of that opinion, and there is so general a belief that the rank and file of the Patrons are but the tools of a few wire pullers who have no politics, that it is impossible to say what will be the result of the contest in East Victoria and other constituencies simi- larly situated. Whether the P. P.
