To the Electors of the First District of
Queens. " »
Gentlemen: '
At the request of a large number of the
electors I have decided to contest the District in the Liberal-Conservative interest.
As the result Vof the General Election no
farmer has been returned to voice the views of agriculturists either in Opposition caucus or from the Opposition side of the House. '
I do not think this satisfactory nor do I
think it was the intention of the electors that nine-tenths of the electorate should be unre- presented in the counsels of the Opposition and in the most important debates in the House. ' '
It is more important, in my opinion, that
the farmers should have atleast one of them- selves in the House in the Opposition than that there be a dozen sitting behind the Pre- mier whose admitted policy already is to seek new means of raising revenue and who is looking to the farmers to provide the money.
\'="""
If elected VI shall make it my business to _
look after the interests of farmers both in the House and in the Liberal-Conservative caucus. _
_This is the first time in the history of
Prince Edward Island that one of the two great parties has been without a farmer member in the Legislature. _ _ The necessity and desirability of remedy- ing this state of affairs needs no elaboration ‘on my part; it must appeal to every farmer in_the_ province, and I trust the farfmers of this District in their own interests will real-
ize their own responsibility in the matter. __ In _.the _brief period between nomination and election there will, I regret, be no time for me to see all the electors personally, so I take this means of asking you to safeguard your own interests and to show your disap- proval of a party which obtained powerlby reckless promises and _other questionable n_ieansi‘ by casting your ballot for me on Elec- tion Day, Friday, October 3. I am, _ Your obedient servant,
; Georgetown. i _Secretary-Mr. Andrew Lavers,

The Kings County Exhibition which
was held in Georgetown yesterday wus well' attended owing to the beautiful weather and many attractions on the grounds.
There was no exhibition in George-
town last year but the return of so many brave soldiers was an incentive to hold one this year and its success is am-ply shown in this better quality of the exhibits and interest taken.

The next speaker was the Hon. W.
M. Lea,VColilliiissioner of Agriculture who gave a veiy interesting talk and who criticized very _ably the different classes on exhibition, laying particu- lar stress on the live stock.
The Exhibit this year is not as large
as formerly but the quality has great- ly improved, especially in the fruit classes where the competition was very keen and in the butter, floricul- ture and household science depart- ments the classes were well filled.
A great deal of attention was at-
tracted to pen and pencil sketches and drawing from original designs.

“The first tlilng is to ascertain the
correct financial condition and the peo ple may rest assured that this will be done and the true situation revealed." After a statement has been given to the people it w_ill then be the duty of the government to try and provide some measures for meeting the situa- tion."
It will be observed that the Patriot
at 4 o'clock In the afternoon was not in a position to ascertain “the correct financial condltion,” yet our contem- porary informs us yesterday that on that same evening it’s editor “astound ed the audience (at Irishtown) by pro- ducing a statement signed by Mr. John Anderson, Provincial Auditor, dated Sept 30 which showed,etc.,etc."
How can the editor of the Patriot,
who is himself a member of the gov- ernment, reconcile these two state- ments? On the face of it, it is an old- missloii that the document pro- duced at the Irlshtown meeting docs not show the correct financial condition of the province to Sept 9th but is merely, as the Provincial Audit- or states, a "record of the receipts and expenditures" for the period in ques- tion. It is also very evidently a docu- ment prepared expressly' for the cam- paign in First Queen's and sprung sud* denly upon the people in order that it might prejudice the claims of Mr. Wigmore in the election.

The series of meetings called by Mr. C. _\V. Crosby, beginning Tuesday ev-l enillg and intended to break iortlil simultaneously nt five different places! proved somewhat ofafailure ill the op- ening round. They did not all mater- ialize as mapped out. At Granville and Hope River, lieltlior Mr. Crosby nor any of his speakers \verc present, and_a.ppa.rently none of his supporters,
At French River and lrishtown, Pre-
mier Bcll and Holi. F. J. Nash produc- ed a "bombshell" which they had tim- od to explode simultaneously, after the manner of the notorious libel againsll Hon, James A. McNeill, the then Com missloner of Public Works, at the Souris bye-election in 1915 and for
which due apology was afterwarllsl made. The "bombshell" on the present occasion was the alleged "flnniici.il statement" hurriedly prepared for the occasion and which the majority of those present accepted for“what it was worth, namely a record of receipts and expenditure for the eight months of the present year with no reference whatever to the actual financial condi- tion. There was no sensation when this “bomb exploded."
LONG RIVER
Al. the meeting at Long River Mr.
Wigmdre gave an excellent speech. .He raked the Liberal candidates for their impossible promises, including a promise to get the $2000 grant for the soldiers and now- telling _them they can’t get it. I-le believed the soldiers should get this grant if the finances of the province would permit it. He-ex _plalned that owing to the short time at his disposal he would be unable to see all the electors but he had made a hurried run over the district and was cordially received by .Liberals
ected and he had good reason to be- lieve he would‘be, that he would serve the constituency faithfully and do his beet to uphold the rllhts of the 'farm ers

and McNevin were neither behind noi' before hlni~in his candidature any more than any of the rest of his party which, he was pleziscll to say included both Liberals and Conservatives. He referred very tellingly to the strong sentiment in the country that there should be a stronger opposition and stated very clearly that both parties were dissatisfied with the result of the last election. The pre-election promises of the Liberal candidates were now known to have been mislead ing and the people very generally ra- sented the deception practised upon them. He referred to the invitation he had received to attend eix meetings the first night and five the second which he feared he would not he able to accept in full.
