P d; t The Hopeyville meeting was the Dr‘s. and the two representatives of Mr. Binnie present Messrs J. A. Hunâ€" ter and C. Ramage were allowed 30 minutes between them, a pretty small allotment to drive so far for, but Lr Sproule was the speaker of the evenâ€" ing and no more could be spared. Dr Jamieson opened and was tollowed by the Binnie men, who crushed enough into their time to keep Dr. Sproule explaining away to his own satisftacâ€" tion any way, the most of the hour or two he spent in reply. Dr. Sproule is a vigorous speaker, good at marshalâ€" ling his facts (or his fancies) but his speech, the best we have yet heard on that side, was marred by a want of fairness. For instance in dealing with corruption at elections, he bundles the tory tricks at the Manitoba elections in 1896 on the shoulders of the grits, and had not a single referente or regret for delinquencies in his own party, nor does he tell thas out of six unseatings in W. Elgin for feorruption 5 of them were Conservatives. _ His travesty of Mr. Ross as a book peddlar was unâ€" worthy of the speaker and his persisâ€" tence in mixing the Algoma Central Railway with ithe Manitoulin and North Shore Railway, was, it not ignorance, something worse. _ Similar unfairness marked his handling of the School book and finareial questions. Th chief points in Dr. J.‘s closing were his efforts to explain away Mr. Hunter‘s charge ot neglect of regular attendance at his duties in Toronto. A rehash of the rotten ery that we had belped to wreck the patron order and a jJustification of Railway passes. At WarTsox‘s Scnooun House. A fair gathering for a Sarurday evening met Mr. Binnie and his friends. Mr. Allan apKeared, for Dr. Jamieson and we hope Mr. Allan will take it kindly it weexpress a wish that he may appear oiten. Mr. D. Leith ‘ was chairman and at the close a hearâ€" ty vote of thanks to him was followed by one moved by Mr Jas Watson that Mr Binnie be thanked tor the calm and able way he bad diseussed public questions without resorting to mud ‘ slinging at his opfi)nem. This was carried heartily. r. W. S. Davidâ€" son here as at Dromore and Holstein proved an effective speaker. Messrs Mearns and Miller are assistâ€" ing in Egremont this week. _ Szuator Landerkin spoke most effectively at Chatham on R;)onday and will do some good work for bis frieed Mr Binaie this week. Others are working we scarcely know where. Mr R Morrice is doing good work in Normanby. The ranks are closing up and we trast that many voters of all shades ot politics will march to the polls early on Thursday next and mark their on Thursday next and mark their ballots tor Binnie and capable governâ€" ment, and save Ontario from the exâ€" ploitation of the Conservatiqe party until they show a better constructive party under abler leaders.

P., and at Hopeville, Mondsy evening, spoke with such vim and directness as to mark him as coming foree in local liberalism and beyond it arector of a company there? We hav‘nt the slightest intention of finding fault with either, but if Dr. Jamieson can be M. P. P.. in Ontario and promoâ€" ter investor and director of a company in Georgia at the same time what is to hinder Mr. Dryden from acting in the lesser d of investor in a foreign state? lgot‘hing_ in the world,â€"but Dr. The strength, the enthusiasm, the unanimity, with which Mr. Binnie‘s supporters have thrown themselyes into the campaign have been surprisâ€" ing and is all the guarantee required fer viectory next week. _ Not a majoriâ€" ty only, but a big one is the aim and mouth Grey will stand where she should be, alongside of the majority of the Province in supporting the governâ€" ment of the Hon. (+. W. Ross. Among Was Dr. Sproule, M. P.. aware when he scathingly denounced Hon. John Dryden for investing some of his surâ€" plus funds in Dakota, that the man for whom he was speaking bad done the same thing in Georgia and was a director or a comnany there? Wao Mr Binnie bas had supporting him Messrs W. 8. Davidson, Jas A Hanter, Wm Calder, Neil Me Cannel, â€"â€"â€" Hattor, O. Sound, J. D. Morgan, Dr Mearns, H. H. Miller, Hanoyer, A. Wenger, Jno.

An account of the Dromore meeting appears elsewhere, ‘The Docâ€" tor had a meeting at Hopeville,, Monâ€" day night of this week, Proton Station Taesday, Dundalk, Wednesday, while Mr Binnvie bas had or will have meetâ€" ings from _ Monday to Friday i% MHolstein, Drewry‘s Yeovil, Dromore and Sinclair‘s successively. Mr Binnie last week held mectings as announced at six points in Normanâ€" by and has reason to believe that he will receive a very generous support from that township. A meeting in his interests was also held at Mulock and some good organization work was done at most of them. . Only at one of them did a champion for Dr Jamieson apâ€" pear and that wes at Watson‘s in Normâ€" anby, where Mr Wm Allan as an ‘‘Inâ€" dependent" urged support of the Whit ney candidate. DAKOTA V. GEORGIA. T8E CAMPAGN a supportor of Mr. Whitney is not the Dr. famieson of private life and distineâ€" tion should be studied. A vote for the latter could not be questioned : a vote for the former is fraught with d anger. If the farmers, merchants and la borâ€" ing classes of South Grey are in favor of these corporations paying a fair share of taxes, they will yote to snsâ€" tain the Ross government and will mark their ballot for Binnie on Thursâ€" day of next week. We candidly ask our Conservative readersâ€"and we haye many of themâ€" many whose friendship we value highly, if at this juncture it would not be wise and well to support Mr. Binnie, in view of the vast interests of the proâ€" vince just developing under the able administratiou he «upports. From the lips of Conservatives themselves has come condemnation of Mr. Whitney‘s leadership, and graye injury we believe would result to the province by placing in power such a man. Dr. Jamieson as "If, however, Mr Whitney‘s proposal is to relieve from further taxation the corporate groperty which _ now contriâ€" butes to the Provincial Treasury he will find that public epinion will? not support him. There is probably no otfier country where corporations are taxed as lightly ag they are in Ontario,. or where there is a greater disparity beâ€" tween the rate of taxes paid by them and those paid by the small propertyâ€" owner. The taxeg#paid by our railroa(fs, both stream and electric. and by our telegraph and telephone companies, are on &?whole. extremely light, and the principal work of the Legislature at its next session should be to adg’:)nsc them and put all propertyâ€"owners, both great and small, upon an equal footing."â€"Sun Mr. Whitney has spoken so plainly that no reasonable doubt should exist in the Sun‘s mind as to what his intentions are. He has declared exâ€" rlidui be will repeal the tax. Thereâ€" ore Grey should not return Dr. g”uaieaon who will certainly follow Mr. Thus had Mr Whitnoey‘s contention been sustained the Provincial Treasurâ€" y would have lost $871,.576.68 and will anyoue say Mr Whitrey was actâ€" ing in the public interest when he opâ€" posed the government in regard to these measures ? The develoy ment of New Ontario by the wise policy of the Ross goyernment means new avenues for the use of ce ment. Then vote for Binnie the enerâ€" getic supporter of the best administraâ€" tion Ontario ever had, and encourage our great new industry. Railway corporations pay about 60 cts in taxes where farmers pay $4.60. Are you in favor of abolishing the tax on Corporations? Then you will vote for Jamieson who votes for Whitney, whois committed to repeal the tax. Can there be a South Grey farmer so blind to his own interest as to do this? The Montreal star, which is anything but fayorable to the Liberal party, not long since said this : If the Province of Quebec had as good a Government as that of Ontario, its people would be too happy to even dream of a change. The trouble with certain sections in the sister Province arises from the fact that they don‘t know when they are well off." Nr W hitney opposed and will repeal this tax it returned to power. And further he opposes the tax on brewers and distillers and moved the six months‘ hoist to the bill at its third reading. â€"Political Grammar, Ralph Waldo Emerson said ‘‘Leave out the adjectives and let the nouns do the fighting."

ALhe United States kas built many of ner great buildings before the value, durability, cheapness, and vitality of concrete was known, and the National Portland Cement Compang has proyen that it can save money by using the article it adyocates.

Hundreds of tons of concrete are repâ€" resented in the foundatious,. â€" Some of them are 18 feet deep and 2 to 10 feet wide, ‘They laugh at time, and take hold on eternity. In your city sand would cost $2 a load, but Nature has been good to the National Portland Cement Company, and given them all they require on their own grounds, savâ€" ing them thousands of dollars, The foundations are built to the proportions of 5 of gravel to 3 of sand and one of cement. Itissimply a case of mixing it up and packing it between boards in any shape or width required, pull away the boards in a few days, amf there is the foundation complete. ‘"‘That‘s a ripe foundation" said Suâ€" Kerintendent Layton, as he picked up a ig stone and hurled it at the concrete.
