 SIR CHARLES HIBBERT TUPPER 
 
 Before an Enthusiastic Mass Meeting at 
 tlie Victoria Theatre. 
 
 COLONEL PRIOR ANSWERS MR. RILEY.

 d<(orati'(l with Hags and hnntlng. the 
 work of Pnif. FostiT. The audlenrr li»- 
 tened to the speakers with marked at- 
 t«*ntiou and the applause waa frequent 
 and hearty. Mr. Barnard evidently 
 n\ade a ntost favorable iinpreasion, na 
 lus retnarks wi're received with approval 
 throughout his *p«'ech. which oceupied 
 over an hour. Col. Trior's arraignment 
 ■ if his traducers was most effwtive, and 
 was brought to a dramatic climax when 
 he <halleugtd Jlr. Uiley to prove hi« 
 eharges or s. id a suit fur criminal 
 lihel. Sir ("harles Hibbert Tupper's 
 siH-ech was a masterly effort in which 
 he ocored the IJberal party on their 
 tiaeal anu general policy to the great 
 .lelight ipf ah present. 
 
 Mr. U. Dallas Ilelmcken, M. P. P., 
 K. *'■■ oieupied the chair, and among 
 Those on the siage were noticed:

 The chairman, who \va** nv<'ived with 
 hearty applause, .said thiit a week ago 
 it was ileeided by the .IjlHTal-tVynKerva- 
 live association that Mr. Krauk Bar- 
 n;ird should be ita candidate for the 
 t'orthconiing by-ideetion. It was, he aaid. 
 a most promiaing omen that so many 
 ladies should lie present at tha first big 
 event in connection with the election. 
 Mr. Bnrnaril had lived in Victoria nearly 
 nil his life, his career was well known, 
 and there was m) douiit that the electors 
 would feel the same confidence in candi- 
 date that the association fell. He was 
 sure that on election day 'Mr. Barnard 
 would receive the sup|>ort of the people 
 of the Capital. He had ple.isnre in call- 
 
 ing wpou Mr. Barnard to address the 
 
 meeting. 
 
 MK. aAKNARD. 
 
 .Mr. Barnard was greeted with pro- 
 longed applause. After thanking the 
 tueelinj; for their friendly reception and 
 Mr. Helmcken for his complimentary 
 refereu<'es, Mr. Itarnard said it was 
 nnneces«<ary to enter into details of the 
 unseating of Col. I*rior which were 
 pretty well understood, but he feit con- 
 strained to take exc*'ption to certain al- 
 legations made by the Victoria Times 
 wliii-h had given a garbled n*port of his 
 si>eech at EfHiuimalt. What he did say 
 was that there waa no written agree- 
 nu'iit l»ctween Col. Prior and the Lib- 
 erals that he would not again Ite a can- 
 didate, and that In that particular the 
 Colonel was iierfectly free to run again, 
 but that having ple<lged his word not 
 to be a candidate he had kept his pledge. 
 He repudiated the report that he had 
 4uade pi'rsonal <-hnrges agaiii«t Mr. 
 Uile/, which the Times in the face of 
 the facts hail attributed to him. Thir 
 he took to be a sign of weakness on t)r« 
 part of bis opponentji, for they uad 
 adopted a policy of personal abus* which 
 he hud carefully avoided. (Applause.) 
 
 He defied the Times to prove It« in- 
 sinuations, Imt if it and its friend«i 
 wished to enter u|>on a campaign of per-
