LIBERALISM, OLD AND NEW.
TO Till: l-lUTOK. Sn;,- i i, ;lV o not read Sir Robert Stout on "Liberalism, Old and New," and don't intend to. Hut how any man could talk an hour or so on such a subject is to me a mystery. In an hour 55 minutes must only have been " verbiage," "pudding." Why it is as plain as A 1! C what the two are ". Old Liberalism—write it in capitals—was glorious freedom, what our forefathers (I am Scotch) fought and died for, and left us as one of the noblest heritages that God ever bestowed on a nation. That's the old.

That's the new Liberalism, and what more cau he said ou it.. 1 don't 1-uow. However 1 will not vet cry Dunedin. IV-comber 12. "luimhh. "Lebeau" Champagne.
