SIR CHAS

Sir Charles Tupper, the Leader of the Liberal-Conservative Party, and his able Lieutenant, Hon. Geo. E. Foster, arrived in Charlottetown by the Princess last night and were given a rousing reception. There were several thousand peaple on the wharf, anda crowd that wae even larger at the eame time lined the streets in the vicinity of the Hotel Davies, from

in attendance, and played appropriate selections on the wharf and at the hotel -

Asecon as Sir Charles put his foot upon the gangway of the Princess a rous; ing cheer went up from the multitude followed by a “tiger.” A similar ovation greeted Hon. Mr. Foster.

The two dietinguished statesmen were then escorted to a carriage in waiting and driven to the Hotel Davies, tie band pre- ceding the carriace.

The balconies of the hotel were bril- liantly lighted by electricity, about one hundred new lamps having been put in yesterday, andon the front of the lower balcony was the word “welcome.” Floating Over that portion of the balcony from which the -addresses were to be made was the glorious old Union Jack.

Afcerentering the hotel Sir Charles and Mr. Foster were escorted to the balcony, and as they made their appearance the cheering which greeted them upon their landing was repeated, the immense crowd ; joining in with the greatest enthusias:n.

Then Mr. P. Blake, President of the LiberaleConuservative Association, an- nounced the order of proceedinge, and thanked all for their attendance and the magaificent reception accorded the visits ing statesmen,

Mr. J. B. Daweon then stepped forward and read the following address from the Tupper Club of which he is president :—

To the Hon. Sir Charles Tupper, Bart., G. C. M. G., C. B., M. P.

®iR CHARLES TUPPER’S REPLY.

Sir Charles spoke st some length in reply to the address. His voice was,strong aod clear aod every word he ssid was distirctly heard even by those on the out- skirts of the great erowd. At the outset he thanked the Tupper club for their ai- dress and for the great honor they had

ter bim. The honor was one whieh he esteemed most highly. Tne Finance. Minister, Hon Mr Fielding some time ago made the statement that Tupper and Toryism would soon be stamped ont of Canada. But it did not look as if that was to be the case. In the last municipal elections at Moncton eight members of the Tupper Club of that important and progressive town were elected. He hoped the day was vot far distant when the Tup- per club will represent the united voice of the electorate of Prince Edward Island.

Sir Charles eaid he had been forty five years in public life and he challenged any man t? put bis finger upon one Liberal mea- sure calculated to benefit the people that bad not received his hearty support. It was a gratificaiicn to him today to be able to stand in the position of not finding one of his opponents challenging his political acts.

Hon, Mr. Fielding has made reference to Tupperiem and Toryism. But that gentleman bad better look to his own re-~ cord, Every one of the Liberal leaders in Nova Scotia, from 1895 upwards, with the exception of Hon. William Annand, died bis (Tupper’s) personal and political friends. All came over to bis side. Itis our proud privilege today to upaold the standard of the Liberal-Conservative perty.

Hon. Mr. Fieldinz came out under the wiog of Jones and Vail, two disgruntled Tories, and he war not entitled to the name of Liberal. Fielding opposed the greatest measure of the age—the meascure of Confederation. Thirty-six years ago they met in Charlottetown to consider tne matter of the confederation of the Mari- time provinces. All know the reeult of this conference. Thirty-six years ago to- day was begunthe stro1g foundation of Confederation, After the convention the delegates went through Camada, and at Toronto Hon. Geo. Brown introduced him asa man who had patrio‘ically united with the Liberal party in promoting Con» federation,

On the boat to-day he had meta great many people. There he had the pleasure of again meeting Senator Ferguson, a man of excellent abilityand one of the ablest members of the upper chamber. Serator Ferguson has done yeoman ser- vice for his country, Every important measure before parliament, every meas- ure having for its object the betterment of Canada, had his hearty support. But he had no place for corruption, and meas- uree calculated to promote this vice met with his diegpproval. He had also met Mr. Stewart, the! Liberal Conservetive standard-bearer in West Queen’s. Mr. Stewart had made an excellent impression upon him,and no doubt he would carry the Liberal-Conservative standard to vic~ tory at the forthcoming election.

He regretted exceedingly that Hugh John Macdonsid, Premier of Manitoba, was not present to-night. A mistake on the part of the telegraph operator had misled the people. But in “* Hugh John’s” place they bad Hon. Mr. Foster, & man of exce!!ent abi’ ity, and one!of the ablest Finance Ministers Canada ever had. Therefore, the electors would not Lave to depend upon him alone.

Soon afier the third quarter McKinnon eprinted for a leal and gained eight yards on Murphy. He tried tohold it but Muphy, coached by hie trainer and cheered on by his triends, gained on him When they turn- edintotre homestreich they were on even terms. McKiauon mude a great ef- fort tonxecure a lead here, but his legs could not hold it out aud he almost fell, Murphy staggered Over the tape and had to becarried from the track.
