The Hamilton Hmld, m Independ- ent Conservative Jonah, any: ...-..."rt is n comparatively any task to defend the Mownt Administration and a. rath- er ditfieult one to nttnck it on its merits. It's sins have been few, when all is mid and done, and its virtues many. In a number of respects it has a recordst,ut is unique nmong govern- ments. So well has it withstood the asraulta of the Opposition that after all these years no charge of eorruption and dishonesty can be sustained against it. In an age of corruption and dishonest government this is cer- tainly something to be proud of. One of the planks in the Meredith platform is the abolition of the office of Minister of Eiucation and the ap- pointment of an otli:er to be called Su perintodent, who would manage the Department as Rm. Dr. Ryerson did in days gone by. It is interesting to remember that the change from the old system to the present one was uncle up- on the recoumendation of Dr. Ryerson himself, who had experienced the diifi. culty of legislating through another, He wrote to the Hon. M. C. Crunerm then Provincial Secretary, on Decan- her 7th, 1868, as follows: The Department of Public Instruc- tion should be under the management of a member of the Executive Council to be designated ‘Minister of Public In. struction,' who shall be an ex oifieio member of the Toronto University and ofthe Council of Public 1mstraetton,and who,in addition to the powers and tune tions vested in the Chief Superintend ent of Education, shall have the Over- sight of all educational institutions which are or or may be aided by public endowment or Legislative grant, to in. spect and examine, from time to time, personally, or any person appointed by him, into the character and working of such imstitutions,snd to him they will report at such times and in such manner as he shallidirect. "Our sttem of publicinstrnction has acquired such gigantic dimensions, and the network of "S operations so per- vades every municipality of the land, and is so interwoven wi h our munici- pal and judicial systems of government that I think its administration should now be vested in as responsible Minis ter of the Crown, with a seat in Parlin. ment; and that I should stand in the way of the application to our varied educational interests of that Ministerial responsibility, which is sound in princi- ple and wise in policy. During the past year I have presented a report of school systems in other countries, with a view of improving my own ; and the Legislative Assembly has appointed a select committee for the same purpose. I have, therefore, thought this was the proper time to suggest the modiiiostion and extension of the Department of Public instruction.’ Elupemenl From Glenallon. Drayton, Ont, June 3.---The quiet village of Glennllen was thrown into a state of ex,citemeut on Saturday after noon, When it was found that Mia! Fannie, only daughter of Mr. Hought, had eloped with one John Hilborn, of Bloomingdale. 1t aplears Hilborn was working in Glenalleu. and had been paying attention to Miss Bought for some time. The father had forbidden Hilborn the house, but they continued to meet in secret, and the father being here on Saturday on business an elope- ment was planned. The young couple evidently had sympathize", as two rigs were in waiting at the outskirts of the village. _ Miss Hought walked out and met them, and all drove rapidly to Ber. lin. The father was almost frantic when iHirmed of the circumstances, and started immediately for Berlin to prevent the marriage if possible. Penal-Pl.

The con- didature of Mn A. B. Robertson is be. in received with great enthusiasm by the people of Wellesley end throughout the whole Riditig. He bu been s mem- ber of the Township Council for the put few years, and being n men of good sound judgment andl msrked sbllity he has won for himself a wide spread popularity throughout the township. The question hns been uked in parts where he is personally unknown "who is the man Robertson 1" I will tell you. He is one of our successful, intelligent, enterprising young funnier-s ; a man of broad and liberal viewh ; a man of high character and ability ; and being a men of such qualities as these, we think a seat in the Legislature would open up for him a broad tield for public useful- ness, and that this Riding should not lose this opportunity of securing his services. It is hard to sav how this election wtll go between P C) I's and P. P Ak But we hope Patron Reformers will not put there foot' in it by support- ing the Patron candidate, thus splitting the Reform vote and allowing the Con- servatives to win. I call F.G. Gardiner a Conservative although he has an- nounced himself Independent; who dare say that be will not become a party slave, if elected. He puts me in mind of other Conservatives who would do anything or be anything to win the election. If we stick 'together victory is ours. Never before in the history of this Province was there such an ap- peal tor the united efforts on support of Reformers to the Mowat Government. I appeal to the young Liberals of North Waterloo to do their duty:on June 26 and stick to our candidate who is wor- thy of our support and confidence and not be misled by Patrons or other so- cieties got up and imported from the Western States to Canada by dissatis- tied politicians who left their rarty be cause thev did not get. the nomination or who were disappointed in some Government otiiivw they were seeking for. I would not give a snap for a man who would forsake the good old Liberal principles and ily to wherever he could tind refuge. The disgraceful attacks upon Mr. Robertaon's personal oareer by the Ber. lin News and Record ithrow" more dig, credit upon the editor): of those papers than upon Mr. Robertson. They are not worthy of the support of the people of this or any other Riding. I appeal to you again electors of North Water- loo to support Mr. Robertson and Our Grand Old Statesman Hon. Sir Oliver Mowat, Thanking you, Mr. Editor, for your valuable spece, too much of which I have already taken, but I wrote these lines feelng the desirability of a. united effort on {the part of Re. formers in the coming contest. . Extracts ”on: Sir Oliver‘s Speech at [nation “Take our prisons and reformatories, our Va rious institutions for the blind, the deaf and‘ the insane. We might have thrown all that expenditure upon the municipalities. We might have called upon such municipality to pay its share of the expenditure, but, haw ing money on Gnd, having the means at our command, we were anxious to save the municipalities from such ex- penditures, and, of course, our doing so has swollen the amount we have ex. pended. Bat lit was the right thing to do, The public have received the benefit of it, The municipalities have been relieved, and the people have felt l, the expenditure less than they would have done if all this expenditure had been thrown upon the municipalities. The same way in the matter of educa- tion. We expend several hundred thousand dollars upon education. This Government has spent many millions upon education. I ‘make no apology for any expenditure we have made. I say all the expenditures were right and in the :public interest, and if we had not made them we would not have done our duty.

Meredith complained because we would not insist upon a compulsory ballot system for the Separate Schools. What we have done is to give Separate School supporters the option of the ballot in the some way as the Public School supporters have the option of the ballot. They are precisely on the same footing in that respect. No one would think of imposing the compul- sory ballot upon. Public School Sup- porters It is not to be wondered that the ballot for separate schools will be opposed when it comes from the anti. Catholic party. Practically the only reason given for it is we are told that the Party are coerced by their priests. Is it any wonder that Catho- lies combine against a proposition of that sort y' . "Mr. Meredith admits we have no power over Separate Schools, that whatever rights they had at the time of confederation are beyond our power, that the B.N.A. act gives us no juris- diction regarding it " a For the CHRONICLE. 'r should " Be Anon-Inca: l'ndoubtedly the foundation" indus- try of Canada is Agriculture. Two. thirds of the people of the greatest pro- Vince of the Dominion are directly in- terested in it. When it is depressed all other industries languish, when it iloarishea all others prosper and in- crease. In these days of keen compe- tition the hope of the farmer is in be- ing more skillful than his competitor in other lands. He can attam this advanced potition only by the applica- tion of the most approved methods. While the other departments of the Ontario Government are engaged in the control of the various branches of public business entrusted to their care by the people, the position of the De partment of Agriculture is somewhat different-it exists primarily in the in- terests of a class of the community, namely, the farmers. Everything that, tends to their welfare comes within the scope of its work, and "Advance Agri- culture" might well be taken as ite motto. This advancement the Depart- ment seeks to accomplish by several means. Its fitstr aim is to collect, systematize and disseminate such infor- mation as will be of value to the farm- er in his calling. During the past three and a half years no less than 1,- 488,600 bulletins dealing with a great variety of subjects have been issued. In addition to the bulletins, sixteen reports were issued in 1893, aggregat- ing nearly 2,000 pages of printed mat- ter, and a. total of 164,940 copies were distributed to members of Farmers‘ Institutes and other associations. The Bureau of Industries is the sta- tistical branch of the Department. It publishes a. report upon the quantities of farm products, their market values, the values of farms, a. labor report and a report dealing with loan companies, chattel mortgages, etc. After four years of work, the Municipal Report, dealing with municipal fnanetsa, is now The second means employed is by granting aid to Associations, eta, edu- cative in their character. In 1898, a. total grant of nearly $20,000 was made to ten Associations heving tor their object the promotion of agriculture in its various branches. Ihrmera' Insti- tutes were practically the creation of the Government. Their object is to enable farmers to meet together and discuss their work. There are 85 In- stitutes in the Province, each receiving an annual gtaut'of $25. For the J en- ner-y meetings of the present your speakers were prov1ded by the Depart- ment, who sddreeeed meetings " 154 diEerent pointy in Ontario. There ere l, " Electors!

Special Dairy School to give instruction in the latest meth- ods, tothe managers of cheesepnd butter factories, and also a special Bummer School to enable teachers to give in- struction in rudimentary Agriculture. Experimental Fruit Stations are now being established in various sections of the Province with the view of stimu- lating that great industry. In addition to the work outlined above. the Minister of Agriculture makes it his business to mingle as much as possible with the farmers, learn their aims and difficulties and inspire them to continued efforts ; to guard their interests so far as legisla~ tion is concerned ; to deliver addresses on agricultural topics and to advance their interests by Avery means that may suggest itself to an active mind. If every member of the Legislature were a farmer it is difficult to under- stand what more could be undertaken in the interests of Agriculture than has been done under Sir Oliver's ad, miniqtration, who makes no Idle boast when he asserts that his is the' true farmers' party. On the one hand we have the Liberal record in this regard and on the other the fact that Mr. Meredith has of late ignored all refer. ence in regard to it. His only agri- cultural policy is to do away with the representative of the farmers in the Cabinet. The one point which our people ev- erywhere must settle is this 2 Can we get administrators who are determined that the commandment "Thou shalt not steal" shall be observed? Till that is settled it is useless to talk about any- thing else. Provincial rights, school questions, tariff reform,British connect- ion, canals, cables, rtrilwttr---wGt is the use of discussing these if we fall in.. to a nation of thieves? That is what we must beeome if we tolerate stealing in high places, for what is done at the top is done at the bottom. Look at the revelations that we have had since 1891-eorruptioms in so many quarters that we wondered if there was a clean spot anywhere. A recent instance is enough to show how deep the roots of the malady are, and to show bow hard it is for a Government to act,even with, good intentions, unless supported by a public opinion, Two worthy gentle. men were.oonvieted and sent to jail. Prison disagreed with them, and they were set free. One is about offering himself as a candidate for Parliament ', the.other was taken from prison as a ‘ conquering hero. In Montreal fine gentlemen received him at the railway station with. cheers, took him to the Windsor Hotel and dined and wined him. He in reply, said not a word In bout ill health, but declared that the people would not allow the Government to keep him in prison any hunger. When convicts get such treatment or'. dinary men will not be much disinclin- ed to be classed among convicts. As we think of the saturnalla that must have existed tor a long time before such astatsofpahiio morals coaldbecosne whim” are forced to thtk what t " to richest The following earnest words, from Principal Grant, of Queen’s University, an old line Conservative, will well re- pay serious perusal st the present time.

Thank God for it, also let us keep our powder dry--tGt u, keep a good servant at his post. A man who will not read this lesson will not heed anything. In one word. Ont- ario cannot afford to dismiss Sir Oliver Mowat. Again. there can be no doubt that Sir Oliver: Mowet stands now for the fair treatment of minorities,and that is the only way possible to make a Ut ited Canadian people. Some Protestants seem to be scared now,and they will be , ashamed of themselves brtutd-by. Ive l Protestants used to be fearless. We l used to say that truth is great and will prevail ; that truth needed only a fair tield and no favor, but now some of us seem to be afraid of the rustling of a leaf. It is fancied that one Rom- an Catholic in a Cabinet can blind half- a-dczen Protestants, and that a feeble minority can deprive us of our liberties if they get their share of a number of paltry offieea. The forms that this scare takes are so extreme that it is impossible for the thing to last any time. For instance,there is not a more, typical Protestant in Canada than the Hon. Mr. Gibson. He is straight from first to last, ineorruptible, every inch a man, capable, diligent, an honor to his city. Yet some men are opposing him becsuse they think him ulave to Home. They might as well think him the King of the Cannibal Islands. I know the force of prejudice and passion, but it is diffieult to believe that many of the in- telligent people of Ontario will be carr- I ied off their feet by this score There l are bigots on both sides, but the great l mess of our people do notintend tbsow dragons' teeth, and ‘the great mass of Protestants have no intention of tight- ing God's cause_ with the devilu wea- pons. . h I cannot help saying here that I wonder a little that Mr. Meredith does not speak out what he must feel with regard to the P. P. A. Coquetting with such an usesiation. or even silently ac- cepting its and, must be fetal to him. It may be said that he is not coquett- ing. No,but the receiver is as bed " the thief. Such nlliee malt have their price, and they no sure to act as a boomerang. I would like to hear from both leaders 3 diatinet repudiation end denunciation of my ormniution that it based on the proocription of nny cless of our people on religious grounds. We need a. union of all good men in Con-din, and we dare not a, to any man that he must abandon the religion of his mother before he con be expected to he treated a.- e citizen. On this third ground, then, I say, we connot afford to diapenle with the services of Sir Oliver Mowet. MEAT s.
