Addrsas Liberal Party Now Without Candidate The early mail Tuesday morning brought sad intelligence to Dr. Blanchard, the. president of the Lib- eral party, the which will be learn- ed with keen disappointment by the Liberals of Haliburton and Victoria countyâ€"the resignation of Dr. Giles, of Haliburton, as candidate in the coming election. It was thought that the doctor would be sure to stand; and it is up to the Grits to get another man right away. No doubt this --.L A 11.10;: g - -- v o v~ 7.. will be Dr. Blanchard himself, who is very popular amongst the Liberals throughout the riding. The sentiments voiced by several of the speakers at the convention in favor of not running a candidate will no doubt be heard again, and per- haps the present member may be re- elected by acclamation. DR. WHAT “OLD HAYSEED" THINKS -(To Editor of The Free Press.) | Sir,â€"I was reading in the papers: a few days go about the way the Con- { servatives carried Colchester, Nova Scotia, about one year ago. They seem to have done the job with money i and whiskeyâ€"more whiskey, however, I than money. Those blue noses must be a dry set. I have not forgotten about the trip of the Minnie M., and the way the trick was played in London. The Grits were in the mud at that time. Now, 'who is the worst ? ' The hayseeds do not do much politi- cal stumping; neither Sir Wilfrid Laurier, nor R. L. Borden will invite? any of them to accompany them on a : political tour, and make speeches. ' They take along these glib-tongued politicians, but the old hayseeds do a lot of thinking. They are in the big majority, and when the election; day comes around they ' can mark} their ballots and they count for some- i thing. Then I have had my suspi-'i cions that there is always a little; money going about election times, but there is no whiskey. I know lots of them could’nt wait for a smile. Well, one morning I was talking to my neighbor, whose farm joins mines. and he said, “John, how much are you going to. ask for your, vote this time?” » “Ask for my vote,” 1' said, “I would like to see the man who would tryto buy me, I woud set the dog on him double-quick; I never got a dollar for PAGE E I GHT. R. GILES SENT IN HIS RESIG- NATIONâ€"WHO WILL BE THE NEXT MAN? my vote in my life,” "Niether have I,” said he. ’ But I have my doubts about. that. Somtimes he has talked due way and voted another, an_d_ eomgtimes he ha's AAAâ€"IA never COMMUNICATIONS Not many years now remain to me. The snows or wumer llavc taken the place of spring; but, however I may show the ravages .of time, my heart still remains young, and I feel that l have as much strength as ever for the services of my country. In spite of my sixty years, of which so much has been spent in the service of the Dominion, I am sure that some time remains for me yet to oppose those sinster combinations, and especially have I a tooth for the unholy alilance between the Castors and the Conservatives. . . . Our greatest work for the advancement of Canada is the construc- tion of the Grand Trunk Pacific, which means so much for our country’s future, and with ,which I hope my name" will be chiefly connected. The more we know about this line the more we see its advantages for Canada. In fact, its advantages are already being felt, as even now it is taking its part in the transportation of the western wheat crop. Within two years we shall see this line run- ning from Moncton to Winnipeg, opening up traffic to new empires of the north, where generations yet to come will be able to settle and make their livelihood. I tell you in all sincerity that I want to carry the coming general election in order to finish this great work, and when it is completed I shall be content to say with the prophet of old; “Lord, now let Thy servant depart in peace.”â€"The Premier at Sorel. LINDSAY, -1 ONTARIO. which Way he- would ********** The Socialists to Have a Candidate The Socialists are now preparing for a red hot campaign and are going to put a strong candidate in the field. A convention will be held shortly in the Academy of Music, and the candi- date chosen. The names .of Messrs. W. A. Goodwin, R. M. Beal and Jas. Appleby beve been mentioned, but it is not known as yet who it will be, The popular run of feeling throughout the party is that a farmer should rep- resent the constituency. Mr. Goodwin was interviewed this morning by The Free Press, and stat- ed that if he was chosen he would stand. He expected that during the next election the country would see the unionists sailing under the Social- Vegetgble Parc'lgglent Butter "A .1 ug...‘ Ullv u---'.___ -_ ists’ banner. ”Kei; Hardy had work- ed wonders in cementing together these two bodies. UNIONISTS~EXPECTED TO VOTE THEIR WAYâ€"WILL HAVE A RED-HOT CAMPAIGN. vote until the night before the eiec- tion, and he always had a little change in his pocket afterwards. “Look here, John, there are a few ways of looking at this thing. These politicians are looking out for number one â€" they are in the game for what they can make out of it, and it only comes the way of a hayseed once or twice in four years to make a few dollars.” Now, that is just what a number of the farmers ‘ think, and it would not be any trouble to get rid of a cartload of money. There are lots of Tories and Grits would have their mouths open, and it isn’t much use for the pot to call the kettle black. When I hear either side talking about corruption I do not take much stock in the matter, as I know they have to say something. Now, I don’t believe in this boodle at all, and would like to be the one to stamp it out alto- gether. There is not much in poli- ties for me â€" I never asked for any- thing, never expected anything. The politicians always want to shake my‘ hand, but I can see through their: game. They ask a whole lot of questionsâ€"if we are all well at home, how are the crops, etc., and always windsup'by saying, “Well, John, I suppose you will give me a. liftthis time.” But ““Old Hayseed” intends to ivote the way he pleasesâ€"he reeds and hasamindoihisown. ‘ .3. Now, Mr, Editor, I am'going to stop. I will write mainâ€"1:11am besides good many things about me since! began these letters.
