ey eee ae , Carmichael on | Political Doings Vote for Buskby A splendid impression was made by Capt, Carmichoel when he spoke in Hazelton on Tuesday evening on behalf of George G. Bushby, the Conservative eandi- date. The attendance was not 80 large as it might have been, had the weather been more fav- orable.

The speaker then took up the tariff question and showed how protection was the chief factor}: in bring prosperity back to Cana- da, the same as it brought pros- perity and wealth to the United States.

He then told about the size of his constituency and a lot of the troubles he had. Dealing with the railway he’ maintained everything would have been love- ly had it not been for MacKenzie &- Mann and the wicked Tories, They gummed up the works and King had been busy ever since Scraping the gum off and was not able to carry out the Laurier pol- icy. He complained that the op- ernment and’ the press had not been very nice either, “He then read a list of all the little repair | ' items, replacing wharfs, ‘lights, | floats; country post offices that the Dominion government pro- vided in four years, Then the crowning effort was the elevator which was built for the prairie grain. He closed with a plea for re-elecoion, The Attorney General followed with the big thunder, Mr. Man- son is a real political orator and one who can use figures in a man- ner to befuddle the best of ’em. ‘What Mr. Stork was not able to discuss it was Manson’s job to]: effort to help. out the Liberal can- ‘didate, The picture Mr. Manson drew of Skeena’s representative going in Hon Lowe's office at Ottawa and asking for hig elevator . was very touching. The elevator was refused... Skeena’s member then elevator or he would resign.
