If he.had invested his money in a manufacturing or commercial enterprise in Dakota, he would not be open to criticism. It is because he, the official guardian of the agri- cultural interests of the premier Can- adian province, has gone out of his way to identify himself with the ag- ricultural interests of a rival state, and by so doing depreciated the ag- ricultural capabilities of his own country, that Mr. Dryden has made a very unfortunate blunder.-â€"Hamilton Herald. 1 LINDSAY.

The whole town it would seem, turned out to welcome and listen to the members of the party. The tour of Opposition Leader Whitney and his colleagues and F. D. Monk, H.P., of the Northern districts of Ontario, culminated in a meeting here to-night that far overshadowed in every way anything that has been held during the campaign.
