L‘DCh a corptation as that which owns and controlls the policy and business of the Dain Warder. (Chars) "Of the men who have formed this company I have not a mad to say, except that I think they have acted prudently and wisely." ‘he remarked. Mr. Stewart instanoed ,several 50- called corporations, one of which was the Hadison Williams (30., a concern in which he, as well as many in the nudiena: had more or less money. 3E‘ersonauy he had only a very Mme money in the concern asthe hadn‘t very much money to spend in any- thing. But he had had something to do with the bringing of that indus- n-u m man and. no one was ready position as regards the C. P. R.'1'hc fact of there being two railways here already will mean that the third- the C..\‘.It. must come ~here too and Lindsay’s position will be considerab- ly improved. Regarding ’the nut- ter of the Normal School the speak- er had a few words to say; He sev- erely criticised Mr. Fox. for his inac- tion. hit. Stewart went to the trouble of digging up the memo:- ial presented to the Whitney .de- ernment by the delegation tram Vic- toria County. which showed Lindsay to be peculiarly well situated for the Norm School, not only through‘its geographical position, but through its population, railway service, presuit educational facilities and everything else that was essential to make Lind. my a suitable mace. That the deie-g gation made a favorable showing was { as fully acknowledged by members do with the bringing of that indus- try to town and no one was ready 10 deny that it was not doing the town a great deal of good one way or the other. It the man who acts for a corporation is such a bad man the men who form the company must be infinitely worse, so what ,‘about Mr. S. J. Fax, who is one of the stock-holders of The Warder, newspaper, and who. therefore has something to say about the policy of that newspaper? Mr. Stewart. also went into the matter of bio connec- tion with the C. P. R. Company! and the bringing of that road to town He considered that he was entitied to some credit in that connection, if he were entitled to any atalL It was only after years of hard, unceasing toil, that the road. was secured for Lindsay and he was glad that in his capacity as local agent of the so- licitor of the C. P. R. he had. been able to do something. In this connec- tion Mr. Stewart mentioned that Lindsay's position is now better than ever before and. her chances were humming still better for a. boom in the sery near future. Lindsay is now on the seabcprd: line of the Grand ,Trunk and is practically in the same GREAT MEETING (Continued from pas Men’ 5 all-wool Halifax Tweed Suits, mea mm we 15111..

But naicl Mr. Stewart the member for West; [Victoria had nothing to say to some of Lindsay's claims when he might have done the town and the consz't- encies a good. deal of good. Mr. Stout-t again found (salt with the Watchman-Wade: for its action :1: the time the places for the four new Normal Schools Were Announced. At thst time, said audience, which wreplied to by the most they show th enthusiastic applau‘C- taken place? Hon. Mr. Maery on being introduced in which to was received with a salvo of applause long books, and t1 continued and exceedingly hearty. He ex- les and en pressed his great pleasure at finding himself one one tittle Mr. Stewart, the pope: m question did not give a. concise new: story of the discussion 121 Parliament, but announced thlt it would not be permitted or compelled to earn any portion of their livelihood from any other source than from the Crown and Changes should be made so that they would be un- able to benefit by the Ditches and Water- courses and other arbitrations, and in this he knew he voiced the sentiments of the Jud!“ eftheland. Mr. Stewart closed a 1,0le speech by soliciting the bean,- 5“th of his “treat it editmially,” end so it did, said Mr. Stewart. The editorial told of the big fight Mr. Fox made on the floor of the house, but none out side the house ever heard of it. he said. In that one editorial was the only time it was ever mentioned and' Mr. Stewart wond- ered why a?! this silence if Mr. Fox had really made such a big fight. Why was all knowledge of the struggle tetained in Mr. Fox 5 mind until this contest came on? The location of the schdol in our midst would have been a decided advantage to the town of Lindsay from many points of view. The work of the construction of the building would have given employment to our work- men, and, the residence of 200 or 300 young men and women here in attendance at the school would have been a benefit financially to the town. The presence of the school in Lindsay would have been of uery great con- venience to the pupils of both town and country, many of whom could have attended daily and resided at home, while others could have returned home at the end of the week. New with the school at Peterboro, it might as wellbe at Hamilton, London or Toronto Greater than all these this Notâ€" mal School would have helped improve the standing of our Collegiate Institute, our. public and our separate schools, and would have nude Lindsay a seat of learning the benefits of which woald have been very far- reaching. We were entitled to this school with all its resultant benefits. and we have been unjustly deprived of it, and the fault of this loss lies with the Whitney Government and with our own Member. Dealing with the matter of Law reform, Mr. Stewart said it was high time the laws were so amended that people could take disputes to court without being ruined. He would, if elected, endea- vor to have the law costs very much cheapen- ed. He believed, too, that Judge; should He contended that the issues oEto ithe acfia day were quite different from thrrstfzytion, Thu at :he iast contest.

He said ifthe two historic parties would select only their best men â€"-men of the highest 'ehar- acter and men of ability, it would not make much difference to the province which party won, because we should then have good hon- est government in any event. He had been gladto learn of the nomination of Mr. Stewart because it showed to him that the Liberals of West Victoria took their politics seriously and were concerned that only a first class, upright. able man should represent the riding. Mr. Stewart was a man of high calibre and if elected would occupy a front seat and take a prominent place in the legislation of the pro- vince. and would not be a back-bencher. He was glad to hear Mr. Stewart proclaim his independence, {or that was one of the princi- ples of Liberalism for which he stood. Lib- eralism recognized the right of every man to have Opinions of his own and stood for the carrying out of that pzinciple. He did not consider it the duty of a member to oppose any measure just because it was brought down by the other side of the House, and on assum- ing the leadership of the party in Ontario he announced that he would be ever found ready to support any good measure that might be brought down by the government, and this announcement was received with surprise by even so great a man as Goldwin Smith, who expressed surprise that the leader of the Op- position should take such a position with regard to the government. But he believed that was the true spirit of Liberalism and he admired the positioa taken by Mr. Stewart in the same regard. He believed that Liber- alism was broad enough to admit of such independence on the part of Mr. Stewart. He which was not broad enough for that is not fit for this enlightened 20th century. Another thought advanced by Mr. Stewart was in the query, “Are the questions under consideration in this election ‘the same as those of three years ago?” He might well asit the question. Everywhere he went he was told that the Liberal party was in a dif- ferent mood {torn what it was in r905. No man can have his ear to the ground without knowing that three years ago there was'muttering and discontent all along the i line, but now, as the speaker went about, he i asked the candidates how they uere finding . things, and the universal reply is that they 3 were never betterâ€"that the leelini is alto- ! gether difierent and that there is now a unity ‘ andan activity in the Liberal party which - was entirely wanting three years ago. In fact the party was never in better fettle than - DOW. . Men’s water-proof Coats in dark grey shade. Worth $3 00.
