I bhad nothought or intention of makâ€" ; take | in§g &aDy mention of any such thing. s ser. | In the early part of the campaign friends of Mr Richardson recommendâ€" e lasy | ed bim as a temperance man and a rsday Erohibxtionist. I next heard that Mr ed in | Richardson had been drinking beer . Mr| during the campaign but said that I ‘ hav. | did not believe it. Ithen heard of a nearly | minister in Egremont, belonging to a i one | Conservative family, having preached years | a sermon recommending the people to vote for a temperance man and not for er Mr| a dog or a heg and I saw a letter ge,. to | written by a gentleman in Egremont x been | to Dr Landerkin stating that he would over a | like to vote for him and for the RKeform r shop | Government but that he was a strong temperance man and wanted to know a visit | the Doctor‘s yiews on the temperance i Semâ€" | question. I then received a letter from a triend in Durham saying that the Conseryatives counted on getting fifty extra vores in Egremont on A¢â€" count of Mr Richardson being a temâ€" grance man. I next beard that a Leat) ntinck farmer had taken Mr Richâ€" Y | ardson into a Hanoyer hotel and that, & a after Mr Richardson had drunk a glass i" s ; | of beer, his friend turned: to the bar plea®®@ | tender and said, ‘‘Now you have # heard this man sfpoken of as a temâ€" bl ';°“‘ perance man. If you hear any one hyuumd- say that again you can tell him he is eason | * liar." I still made no reference to . from | the temperance question, either priâ€" /ar 12@ | yately or publicly, nor did Tintend to. harves,; | However_at Mr Richardson‘s Ayton meeting Dr Jamieson, 3Fe&king for out the Mr Richardson, said, ‘‘They accuse rain by | M Richardson ever in Egremont of a great crime. They say he drank a io glass of beer and that they have an )n'.mn” affidayit to prove it.

I do not deem it a pleasant thing to make any reference to such matters in a political campaign but under the cireumstances make no apology for having done so. To the Editor the Review, I did not and that I did not know perâ€" sonally that he had ever drunk a glass of beer but that I would leave the matter in his hands and that he could tell his audience whether he was a temperance man and prohibitionist or whether be did drink beer. Mr Richâ€" ardson, during the meeting. said that he had drunk one, two, three glasses of beer and that ho did not know it was wrong tor a man to drink a glass of beer that was not pledged not to do so. I certainly would have made no menâ€" tion of beer at the Ayton meeting had the matter nof been introduced by Dr Jamieson. Afterward at the Neustadt meeting I spoke without making any mention of the beer drinking and Dr Jamieson following me volnmarildy repeated the statement that he had made at the Ayton meeting and added that Mr RK:hardson was not a temperance man but was, like himself, a temperate man. Mr Richardson being the next speaker said that during the campaign he had drunk one, two. three gr:sses of beer and that he did not deem it any crime to a man nof pledged not to do so and he then said that in view ot the recent plebiscite he would vote against a prohibitory liquor Law whether introduced by _a(Lagrier or a Tupper Government or by a Laurier opposition. These s‘atements were entirely unprovoked. Ithen went with Dr Landerkin to meetings in the Township of Artemesia and found that in that temperance part of the Ridi ichardson had made: no pub! n of his beer drink ng or ant n views and that a number 0| ere inclined, though Reformers. tor him beâ€" cause of his sup temperance princlgles. I thought it unfair to our candidate Dr Landerkin that Ishould, if I could fairly and honorably prevent it, allow Reform temperance men to transfer their support to Mr Richardâ€" son as a temperance candidate while Mr Richardson was apparently taking pains to save his liquor vote in another g-rt of the Riding by groolaiming imself a moderate drinker and an antiâ€"prohibitionist and at two or three At a subsequent meeting in Hanover Mr Richardson again stated that he had drunk beer and was opposed to prohibition.
