Friday last about 100 delegates from widely separated parts of the Riding assembled in the Town Hall in res- ponse tome call of the executive, to to elect onlcers and listen to address. es by prominent men. Mr. J. D. Morgan was the first speaker. He thought the position of the Reform party on all public ques- tions was such as would commend itself to all Reiormers and friends of good government. He spoke of the necessity of good organ- ization to accomplish the ends in view and promised as ever before tobelound helping along the min- ciples of the Reform party. Vice President, J. P. Telford took the chair, and C. Ramage was: ap- pointed Secy. Pro-tent. The minutes of the last meeting were read and adapted and after a brief word of welcome from the chair, the work of the day was outlined and the election ot ottieers proceeded with, with the result given below: Pres.: II. H. Miller, Hanover. lst Wee Pres.: It. Morice, Orchard. 2nd Vice Pres.: Walter lIastie, Dromore. The following are the members of the executive trom the ten mtmieipal- ities comprised in South Grey after next January: Durham-J. W. Crawford, Durham. Bentinek--Geo. Ries, Habermelil. Normanby--s Wenger, Ayton. Fgremont--Jno. Campbell, Boothville. Glcnelg--.Wm. Smith, Durham. Proton-Arch. Burnet, IIopeville. 1farkdale--Angms Ptewes, Markdale. Dundalk-J. D. Morgan, Dundalk. Artemetia---W. Grainger, Ceylon. Ilanover-T Poehlman, Hanover. Messrs Calder and Crawford were appointed auditors. President-elect Miller in a few neatly-eliosen words thanked the meeting for the honor of the presiden- cy and took the chair and the pro- gramme. carefully prepared by ex- Vice Pres. Teltord, was carried out. Mr. J. D. Morgan was the first Mr. Binnie impressed on the meet- ing the necessity of perfecting local organization. Reterring to recent by-electious, he said it seemed appar- ent that some Reform workers had followed the example of Conservative ballot staffers in bye-gone days in South Grey and elsewhere. and hoped all our wins would be honest ones or none at all. Dr. Mourns made some complim- entary references to Dr. Landerkin, and was pleased to see with them Mr. H. P. O'connor, to whom the Conserv. ative party or a section of them denied the right ot free speech on a recent occasion. MR. II. P. O‘CONNOR though far trom well as he looked and said, was introduced amid hearty applause. (Mr. O'connor and family were plunged into mourning a few weeks ago by the death of a promis- ing son by accident.) He referred to the refusal of the Con's to hear him, honors were more than even, however as what he had to any was not ot much mnence. while the election of Dr. LInderkin was. Secy.-Treas.: Chas. Ramage, Dar ham. Referring to the campaign of the Conservative press against Liberals and alleged Liberal methods, he pointed out forcibly the rotten state of affairs in the government of 1896. with its out throat methods and scan- dalous divisions and contrasted it with the position of harmony and good willot the Liberal party of the present day. Mr. Gilbert Mekeehnie spoke next and reminded them that elections might soon be upon us and he was confident that with proper organiza- tion what we had done so long we could do again, He entered briefly into the financial affairs of the govern- ment of the Dominion. showing that such boona as cheap postage, not only in Canada, but throughout the empire, had been granted while at the same time the ever recurring detieita in the Post oftiee department were almost mped out. They had put him down, but in the lection had been put down them- C. Ramage, E, ditor Inf] Ptmuie i selves He had been a supporter and g admirer et Dr. Landerkin since he en- i, tered public life in 1872, he had i watched his public career ever since (, and considering the work he had done, inothing from the Reform party was '; too goodfor Dr. Landerkin, who amid ", many drawbacks trom partizan per- gsecutiun had carried their banner to vict;ry so when. 1 Did Conservatives remember when l they charged Reformers with corrup- ! tion, which even the judges could not lbring home, ofthe time in this town i when ballots were tampered with ? , Reverting to Prov. politics he re- gretted the retirement ot Hon. A. s. Hardy from ill health. They who charged otherwise were mistaken in their manfor he was a tighter who feared no foe. Yet Ross, he assured them, and Mr. G. McKechnie would corroborate him, would carry on the government in the same honest pro- gressive way, maintaining all the l best traditions of the Reform party. The wonderful record of the Liberal government was then placed lucidly, eloquently and fairly before the audience. All bills and measures in. troduccd ty them have been success- ful, except where the partizan Senate had blocked the way. The excellent selection of a cabinet made by Sir Wilirid Luwier, the settlement of the Manitoba School question, the remov- ing of the quarantine regulations, causing an immense increase in trade, the work of Mr. Fisher. the best Minis. terof Agriculture Canada ever had, the great postal advantages conferred by Minister Mnloek's tine handling of his department, the immense growth ot the butter and cheese trade. the in- crease in term values were all put in evidence, Ilealso referred to Dr. L's expert ences from Tory enemies and similar doings in other counties in 1801 and 182m, and reminded them that this formed no justification for return in Kind. lie then rehearsed some of the victories ot the Reform Party through- out the bum Dominion, his speech sometimes being couched in eloquent and poetic language. It was gratify- ing to Liberals to see the progress of the country under Liberal principles, in spite ol the predictions oftheir opp0- moms, who pretended to be iooking " ruin. Before entering on Dominion politics he made a brief reference to the wimnges in the local house and said the new men Stratum and Latchford would tend to keep a strong govern- ment, sure to please. Mr. Walter Mystic and Mr. Wm. Calder were eaii'ed ml for addresses bat each retired to save time for MR. ARCH. CAMPBELL, M. P. " West Kent, and a warm personal friend of Dr. Lunderkin. lie spoke ot the usefulness of the D". in the House of (luminous. where as chairman of one of its chief committees he did im. portant work. He was respected by trleud and foe, and would be very greatly missed trom the House u He "Was delighted with his first visit here, liked the country, and its happy prosperous looking people. He referred to the shameful expos- ures in cmlnecuon with the Tay Canal, Curran Bridge, ke. and said that chry cent spent by the Liberals could be defended. He then gave in elab- orate and convincing detail the great improvement effected by the hand- ling of the Intereolonial by this gov- ernment, which instead of being a constant drag has been converted into a paying institution. The remarkable increase in the revenue the past 3 vears as compared with the previous 18, was tellingly pointed out. The Conservative prem~ ier of England had accepted the Lib. ation ot the world. Dr. Landerkin was very warmly received. After some kindly personal allusions he entered upon public ques- tions, giving the Mail credit in passing for claiming there was 'new' and 'old' Liberals. In 1896 many Conservatives became new Liberals. The wisdom of the bargain made with the C. P. R. in regard to the Crow's Nest Pass Railroad was pointed out. These were: running privileges kept, coal lands reserved to prevent monopoly, reduced rates for wheat exportation from the whole west, and also for the importation of fruit &e. He closed with an eloquent Deror. ation on the future of the "Young Giants" work and part in the civiliz- ation ot the world. A specimen of the immigration pol- icy is seen in the fact that this year alone 12000 will moye from the States to our North Western provinces. This in addition to Doukhobors, &e who were making excellent settlers. Referring to the increase in the es- timates he claimed it was more than jt1stitied by increased revenue. and besides, the increase does not bear on the people, for instance the Yukon pays for the Ynkon; - _ The charge of stealing Conservative clothes was scathingly referred to. If the tariff had remained as it was in 1896 over three million more of reven- ue would be raised then is done. The average duty was not a true test, as they had increased the duty on lux- uries and lowered it on necessities. ' He seathingly referred to the harm done by the Senate in rejecting the Yukon railway bill and said long Tears would elapse before the harm they have done would be effaeed, in fact their action had complicated the settlement of the Alaskan boundary question to our disadvantage. eral offers and denounced the foreign treaties, while the same party had re- jected advances made haltingly by our Conservatives. As to corruption he believed it was done by interested parties to cause a tide in tavor of our opponents. Since 1896 there have been 14 vacant Lib- eral seats tilled again toy Liberals and IP. Conservative seats tilled'by 10 Lib- erals and 2 Conservatives. If there had been corruption why was there not a single protest in These elections? _‘_ ---_-"r7--e-"--' --\'vyv wu‘. ‘UVL'WKCv Total hours of sunshine 35.2 being much below the average.

At the eloseit was moved by Mr. Morgan, seconded by Mr. Calder, that a vote of thanks be tendered to to Mr. J. J. Smith for his long and valuable services to the Reform party in this riding as secretary of the Assoe. iation. The resolution was very heartily and unanimously carried. Resolutions as follows were heartily supported: Moved by Geo. Binnie, seconded by WalterHastie that in the opinion of this Association the Dominion Govern- ment under the able leadership or Sir Wilfred Laurier is deserving of the enthusiastic support of every Liberal in the Dominion of Canada for the capable, honest, clean and brilliant manner in which the business ot this country has been conducted. Every capable, honest, clean and brilliant manner in which the business ot this country has been conducted. Every department being administered wisely economically. and in the best interests of the people ot this country and that when the proper time arrives, we will heartily support the Liberal Govern- ment and theLiberal Policy. Moved by C. 1latnage seconded by J. D. Morgan; That this meeting de- sires to place on record its entire con- iidenee in the Government of Hon. G. W. Ross lately formed. While re- gretting: the ill-health that has caused Mr. Hardy’s retirement, we rejoice at the ringing denunciation of political coiruption which is found in his yetiv ing address to his constituents, and we are confident the same honesty, pro- bity and progressivencss which has characterized the goyeinxnents of Mr. Hardy and Sir Oliver Mowat will still be found in that of lion. G. W. Ross. We bespeah for the new government the hearty support of South Grey Lib- erals. "Old England is at war" said the Chairman Miller, “get us close by giving 3 cheers for the Queen and singing a verse, of Rule Britannia,” both of which were cordially done. The decision to appoint a commission of judges to investigate the West El- gin corruption and a committee of tin, ancial experts to clear up the doubt as to the Treasury audit will disclose the truth and bring about a remedy if one is needed, and therin the province will be benefited. The Ross ministry has started well, both from the stanp-point of clean gov- ernment and party interests.

From the same source the Liberal party will be benefited, and the Gov- ernment will be strengthened with the people through its evident desire to do what is right and parity the pol tical atmosphere. --Tomnto Star.
