BKNGOITGH. ^' REPRINTED FROM THE TORONTO "DAILY GLOBE." THE POOLE PUBLISHiNG COMPANY, TORONTO. Nc ;-f4f Til? A 4 I Publishers^ Note It is confessed on all hands that the Cartoons contributed to the "Daily Globe" by Mr. J. W. Bengough during the campaign of 1896 did more to win the victory for the Liberal Party than any other single argumentative force. No less effective were those published by the same journal from his pencil in the campaign of 1900. The Huron Expositor voices the general belief of Canadians of all parties in saying: "Since Mr. Bengough became famous as a cartoonist he has had many imitators, but he is still the father of them all. For freshness of ideas and an accurate grasp of the situation por= trayed, as well as for genuine originality and all that goes to make a cartoon interesting and suggestive, he has no equal in Canada." It may fairly be added that his work is distinguished by a good-nature which will render the present reproduction of the latest series almost as popular with Conservatives as with Liberals. It certainly forms an accu. rate delineation, from the Liberal standpoint, of the chief features in the last great battle of the veteran Sir Charles Tupper. THE POOLE PUBLISHING COMPANY.

During- the progress of the campaign Hon. (i. I^. Foster had stated that in view of the importation of American agricultural machinery, the interests of Canadian manufacturers required that the higher duties of the Conservative tariff on such goods be restored. Hon. 1 1 ugh John Macdonald, in his addresses in Manitoba, declared himself in favor of the entire abolition of duties on agricultunU implements. Sir Charles Tu[)per quietly ignored this inconsistency of his two principal lieutenants. Persons represented: Sir C. Tupper; Hon. G. E. Foster; Hon. H. J. Macdonald; Canadian Manufacturer; Canadian Farmer. I NOT BRITISH ENOOCrH ^/R C T ,ty (( MONKEYING" WITH THE COUNTRY! VI. A contrast between Sir Wilfrid Laurier's idealisn^ and the somewhat cynical realism of the Conservative leaders. While Sir Wilfrid has a good share of the solid business qualities of the English race, he is dis- tinguished for a poetic temperament which he owes to his French origin Whatever the private tastes of Sir Charles and Mr. Foster may be and both are men of culture — they appear to have no use for poetry in politics. Persons represented: Sir C. Tupper; Hon. G. E. Foster; Sir W. Laurier.

The prophecy had not been realized. The Cartoon suggests its fulfilment in a political direction in view of the evident trend of public opinion. « * • Persons represented: Sir C. Tupper; Hon.

The current of public opinion was manifestly against the restoration to office of the Conservative leaders, whose rule had been distinguished by lax administration and internal dissentions.

I' Sir Mackenzie Bowell, in a speech at Perth, made a strong attack upon Hon. John Haggart, a former colleague in the Conservative Gov- ernment. Mr. Haggart had been one of the ministers who "bolted" under the Premiership of Sir Mackenzie, hence this act of vengeance. The speech did much to demoralize the Conservative campaign.

As a campaign move the Conservatives published a pai)er made to resemble the Giobe, which was widely distributed through the country. It was calculated to give the impression that the Globe had turned against the Liberal Government. The " bogus " document was not publicly repudiated by any of the Conservative leaders.

Hugh John Macdonald was summoned to the aid of the Con- servative Party on the opening of the campaign, partly on account of his recent success in Manitoba, but chiefly, as was beHeved, because he was "his father's son." For a time the opposition leaders did a good deal in the way of conjuring with the name of the departed chieftain who was so greatly loved and trusted by his party. Persons represented: Sir C.
