I beg, therefore, to say that I am in the field asking for your suffrages as an Independent Conservative. I am strongly in favor of the Fiscal and Trade policy of the present administration. Unrestricted Reciprocity or Free Trade with the United States, as advocated by the Opposition, would necessitate the adoption of their tariff and be disastrous and ruinous to the trade of the Dominion. I am strongly opposed to any interference by the Dominion Parliament with the Provincial Legislatures in the management of their educational^ institutions. I am well known throughout the County, having rep- resented the riding to the best of my ability during tv/o Parliaments. I shall, as I always have done, oppose any extrava- gance, corruption or wrong-doing, and will support only such legislation as I consider will be in the interest of the County and the Dominion. Therefore it is with confidence I solicit your votes and influence. I am, Gentlemen, Obediently yours, JNO. "' °'^' ' Desmond, 18th April, 1896 \ a
