ROBSON. Fcnelon Falls,.Marc.h 8th, 1893,.) 'l‘hc Fcnelon Falls Gazette. Friday. March 10th"..1893. President Cleveland on: Protection. On Saturday last Grover Cleveland was inducted for the second time into the~oflicc of P;l"Clll'-d€llt"0f the United States. From his inagural address we take the following extract, which preach- cs pure Grit doctrine from beginning to end : “ The verdict of our. voters»,.- which condemned the injusticczof» maintaining protection for protection fer protection’s sake, cnjoins upon the people’s serVauts the duty of exposing and destroying the brood of kindred evils which aretho un- wholcsomc.progenyofipatcrnalism. This is‘ the bane of republican institutions and the constant peril of our government by the people. It degrach to the pur- poses of wily craft the plan of rule our forefathers established and bequeathed to us, as an object of our love and ven- eration. If perverts the patriotic senti- ment of our countrymen and tempts them to a pitiful ,.calculation of the sor- did gain to bedcrived from their gov- ernment’s maintenance. , It? undermines the selfâ€"reliance of ourpeoplc, and sub- stitutes in. its-place dependence upon governmental favoritism. 1t stupifics the spirit. of true Americanism and stup- ifies every cnnoblingtradt of-zAmei-icuu citizenship. “ The lessons of paternalism ought to bc unlcarned, and the better .lesson taught. that while the peopleshou'ld pat- riOtically... and cheerfully Support their government, its functions do not include the support of the people. “ The acceptance of this principle lendsto.a,rcfusal..o£.bcuntics and sub- sidies,-wh’ich bordcn the labor and thrift of a portion of our citizens, to aid ill- which they, have no concern. also-to aschallengc of wild and reckless patriotic service and prostitutes to vicious uses the people’s prom“; and generous impulse to aid those disabled in their country's defence. Every importance of checking at its beginning any tcndcncy in public or private station. to regard frugality. and 1. economy as virtues we can safely outgrow. The tolerance of. thigddca results in' the waste of' the people’s money by their proven servants and encourages prodis gality and cxtravaganccwin the home life of ouri countrymen. “ Under the scheme. of government the waste of public money is a crime against the citizen, and ,thc contempt of our people for cconoxnymnd frugality in their personal alfairs- dcplorably saps the strength and sturdiness of our national character. “ It is a plain dictate of-honcst. and ’ good government that public expendi- durcs should belimitcd by public neces- sity, and that this should be. measured by the rules of strict economy; and it' is equally clear that frugality among the people is the best guarantee of a. contented and strong support of free 1 institutions."

The annual meeting of the Reform Association for North and East Victoria was held in Dickson’s Hall on Tuesday, March 7th.

Wilfrid Lauricr and the Opposition at Ottawa in l'av.or.of.- the reduction of the tariff, and relieving the farmers, and industrial classes generally, of their present burden ofhigh taxation; and cxpressas its satisfaction with Brit- ish connection, believing that whatever dissatisfaction exists in Canada is due to, the high protective tariff and the extravagances ands; cornuption, ,of h the present Dominion-qucrnincite, W. ._._... -_._._._,.... _ The Last Carnival.
