Show AFTER THE LADIES RECENTLY mr david archibald of the twenty first ward called to explain a feature connected with the liberal tactics that is somewhat Ul unique lique A few days ago during mr Archi balds absence from home a couple of liberal iu in called upon his wife and mother in law and used th their air powers of persuasion to induce them to bring their batteries to bear upon mr A to get that gentleman to cast his ballot for the liberal I ticket they made plenty of promises in the event of the opposition going into power among them being lots of water an abundance of gas and any amount of police protection the ladies were invulnerable they answered in effect that they did not know about the water part of the professed gramme pro but as aa to their ability to supply gas in large quantities they had no reason to doubt as they had bad just then exhibited their capacity in that line As for police protection the ladies said they lived in a peaceful neighborhood bo and that was a commodity for which they had no particular use they might have added with a good show of reason that if the cc liberals should happen to go into power they might then need police protection but that they did not wish to help create the necessity in order to be placed in possession of its antidote it seems that the Ll liberal beral agents are operating in this respect partially upon the theory of the schoolmaster who when asked who ruled the village where he was acting in his profession replied III t do when asked to explain he said that he be ruled the children the latter ruled their mothers and the mothers held undisputed sway away over their husbands we have no doubt that tile the appeals to the ladief will fall as flatly upon cheit ears as those addressed to byung young utah do upon the youth there are some things which the fL liberal eliberal advocates have said in the past about the young people endorsing the bringing to bear upon them of morally corrupting agencies cies that they have not forgotten when the methods of the opposition are considered it seems as if some other phrase than leaving no stone unturned 11 should be invented to fittingly describe their completeness eness to preserve their liberi ties the people must meet activity with activity and use every honorable means to gain a slashing victory on monday next |
