artwright’s Insult to the High- landers.

After, in one of his ‘‘pie nie speeches,” charging Sir John MeDonald with thieving, Mr. Cartwright said :- .

Perhaps he (Sir John) could not help it, as coming from a race of thieves and plunder- ers, his hereditary instinets were too strong to he suppressed,

, BRECKEN S REPLY.

In his speech at the L'beral-Conservative pic nic on Saturday Mr. Brecken made the following allusion to this insulting language, used by the Finance Minister towards the Scottish Highlanders :

I see before me the descendants of some of those true hearted Highlanders who ral- lied to the standard of the Royal Charlie, and, fighting nobly in his cause, left their bones to bleach on wild Culloden’s. moor. When fortune deserted him, and a price was laid on his head, he wandered through the Highlands and Western Isles, with no other companion than the. faithful Flora McDonald, and no other defence than the loyalty and patriotism of the high-souled sons of the Gael. The canopy of heaven was his only covering ; the stars of the firmanent were his only sentinel; the heather was his only couch. Every effort was made to arrest him ; every inducement was offered to betray him,but those who knew his hiding places scorned the proffered bribe. His informer might have stepped from poverty to luxury; his betrayal would have transformed the pauper into a millionaire; but the fairest jewel in England’s diadem could not swerve the Highlanders from their devotion, or break the bond of affectionate attachment which bound them to the royal boy. As long as literature exists, the story of the wanderings of Prince Charles, will be read with t} villing interest, and the unsel- tish devotion of the Scotch Highlanders will excite the admiration of mankind. Yet these are the men whom Mr. Richard John Cartwright accuses of possessing ‘* pre- datory instincts,” and stigmatises as ‘‘ born thieves;’ and Mr. Cartwright is the man who has the brazen efirontery to ask the Highlanders of this Province for their po

MR.

litical support ; and Mr. Peter Sinclair is the Scotchman who — obseqv’ously fawns upon this wanton —insul-

ter ef his countrymen, and who is now seek- ing your sufivages, in order to retain this foul-mouthed slanderer in oftice.

“PURE STANDARD ELEVAT- ' ORS.”

How They Elevated the Standard.

‘“THE THIRTY WHO FELL BY THE WAY.”

Arrer the elections of 1874 the follew- ing pure ‘Standard Elevators” fell before the Courts of the land—by virtue of an Act made and passed for the purpose of suppressing bribery and other corrupt prac- tices at elections :—

Shibley, Tremblay,

Jodoin, McDonald (Cornwall), Mackay, McNab,

McGregor, Wood,

Chisholm, (‘ameron (S. Huron), Irving, Walker,

Norris, McKenzie (Mont’}), Devlin, Stuart,

Coupal, Kerr,

Biggar, McDougall (South Ren- Murray, frew),

Aylmer, Cook,

Wilkes, O’ Donohue,

Prevost, McLennan, Higinbotham, Dymond,

Cushing.

Some instances, in the obove list, are ex- tremely interesting. Mr. Cook, M. P. for _ North Simcoe, an earnest Liberal and sound Reformer, testified as follows at his own election trial in 1874 :

| ** In the spring of 1871, 1 canvassed the ‘constituency for one month or six weeks ; ‘in 1872, | canvassed the constituency for a ‘similar length of time. Speaking from ' memory, the expenses of my canvass in 1871 | would reach about $10,000; it might amount to $13,000, for I do not charge my mind with $2,000 or $3,000 in election mat- ters. Ihave been examining my accounts for election expenses in 1872, and, making a rough estimate, I place them at $15,000 to $15,000. They certainly did not exceed the latter sum. ‘That amount I paid my- self. Ido not know anything about sums paid by my friends. Jn 1874 the expendi-

KDWARD [SLAND, MONDAY, AUGUST 19, 1878,

NO. 376:

{ would have the sympathy of the people in consequence of my expenditures in i872, and that my opponent would have to carry the Pacific seandal on his back.”

Here is a confession of an expenditure «f $25,000 in corrupting the electors of one constituency. Mr. Cook has again been chosen as the Ministerial standard bearer for his county at the coming election. The ‘Party of*Purity,” which slurs Sir John for using money at election contests, has nct demanded that Mr. Cook shall step down and out.

Then we have Major Walker, of London. As far as could be ascertained from the evidence, some $20,000 was spent in his case. In his election trial, in which he had the ‘‘bad eminence” to be both unseated and disqualified, Mr. Justice Gwynne de- livered his opinion as follows : )

‘“‘ We can as readily believe it possible for the respondent to have been immersed in the lake and to have been taken out ary as that the acts of bribery which the evi- dence discloses to have been committed on his behalf, almost under his eyes, in his daily path, with means of corruption pro- ceeding from his own headquarters, and from the hands of his confidential agent could have been committed otherwise than with his knowledge and consent.”

Yet the Reformers, with mouths fall of abuse of Sir John for using money at telec- tions, have not withdrawn their atflection from Major Walker. He is the candidate of the party at the pending election for London, and the picnie companion of Mr. McKenzie in his western wanderings,

In South Huron, Mr. M. C. Cameron admitted in his evidence that $10,000 to $14,000 was paid to win that county in the interests of purity of elections.

The Hon. Malealm Cameron, in that re. markable confession which he made and published before his death, stated he had spent $6,000 in contesting Russell, the ex- penditure (these are his words) “having a good effect in subsequently securing that constituency for the Reformers.” And he complained that his party had not reim- bursed him, as they promised to do, thus showing that the expenditure was not 3 personal, but a party affair.

HOW THEY MADE A&A * BIG PUSH,”

The following is the letter by which the Hon. Geo. Brown, of the Globe—the head Reform manipulater—the power behind the throne—inaugurated the election fund on behalf of the Reform party. We give the salient points of this model epistle, known a8 THE RIG PUSH LETTER : —

‘** Toronto, Aug. loth, 1872. * Hon. JOHN Simpson, ** Presd’t. Ontario Bank.

** My Dear Sir,—The fight goes brave- ly on, We have expended our strength in aiding outlying coumties and helping our city candidates. But a BIG pusH has to to be made on Saturday and Monday for the East and West divisions. : We, therefore, make our GRAND STAND On Saturday. There are but a half-dozen people that can come powsx HANDSOMELY, and we have done all we pos. sibly can do, and we have to ask a few out- siders to aid us. WILL you se ong? I have been urged to write you, and comply accordingly. Things look well all over the Province. Things look bright in Quebec ! .

*“* Faithfully yours, ““(EORGE Browy,”’ RESULTS OF THE BIG PUSH.

It is estimated that Mr. Simpson’s bank has actually received substantial benefits to the extent of $20,000 per annum, in the shape of income from Government deposits given the bank without interest. HOW THEY ‘‘MANIPULATED”’

ISLANDERS-~YCLEPT, BY

SON, D—D sCOUNDRELS.

When Laird, Sinclair, Yeo, Perry and Me- Intyre agreed or consented to support the ‘‘Pure Standard Elevators” it was under- stood that one of the Island representatives should have a seat in the Cabinet. Laird accordingly got the seat. But after a year or two Laird was sent out to civilize the wild Indians of the Great Northwest and an Ontario schoolmaster named Mills took his place. Yet Sinclair, Yeo, Perry and Me- Intyre meekly continued their support of the “‘Standard Elevators. For farther par- ticulars apply to Hon. D. Davies. -
