THE LABOR VOTE IN THE CAMPAIGN.

The organ of ring rule of this city a few days ago took
occasion to sneer at the idea of the Liberals in their platform
offering anything in the interests of workingmen, styling it as
a mere vote catcher. One might answer to that that the Con-
servatives have no such vote catcher in their platform. The
Trombone says that while the Liberals were in power in the
province why did they not do all these things then. Easily
answered. Conditions were not the same then now; the
issues presented now did not exist then.

What the morning paper should have done as an answer to
the Liberal platform was to show not only what the Liberals in}
the legislature had not done but what McBride had done since
he came into power. On the latter point they were dumb. When
Mr. McBride was first returned to power he had to depend on
the Socialists to keep his place. From 19093 to 1907 all the
legislature favoring labor that has ever been passed in the proy-
ince was passed. Since 1907, when McBride came into power,
no legislation in the interest of been not
single bill. Alt the bills that MeBride is personally interested |
in are bills in the interests of railways, land grabbers, timber
speculators and such. ‘To favor an eight-hour day, six days in
the week and pay at the end of it would conflict with these
‘interests.’ If McBride goes back with an overwhelming ma-
jority he will be justified in acting as he has in the past and
ignoring labor altogether.

ALEX. M. MANSON’S CAMPAIGN SPEECH.

The Liberal candidate opened his campaign last night with
an address at the Empress Theatre. The invitation to the
gathering was not adddressed “to the supporters’ of the can-
didate but to all in favor of good government, and this may have
led the supporters of the ring to the conclusion that they were|
not included. At any rate when Dr, Kergin, who-presided, asked |
on several occasions if any of the supporters of William Manson}
were present and desired to speak there was no response. The
Socialist candidate made a Jong and able address and there were
other speakers, the Liberal candidate closing the meeting with
a lucid explanation of the issues of the day. It was a long speech
as there were so many points to be clearly elucidated. But the
crowded audience never seemd weary and the telling points made
were punctuated by instantaneous applause. Sometimes it was
so enthusiastic to interfere with the speaker. It
toward the close more of a demonstration of the high standing
of the candidate in the community where he is so well and fayor-

 

became

as

ably known.

—==Remember—-

There will be two Manson names on your ballot paper. Be
careful to make the distinction between the McBride Manson, who
has been tried and found wanting, and ALEX. M. MANSON, the
people’s candidate, and a true representative of Skeena riding.
To save confusion at the polls put your cross opposite the name
of ALEX. M. MANSON, which is the second name on the ballot,
exactly as indicated thus:

CLAYTON

William Barratt Clayton, of Prince Rupert Dentist

MANSON, ALEX. M.

A. M. Manson, of Prince Rupert, Barrister-at-Law

MANSON, WILLIAM

William Manson, of Prince Rupert, Accountant
