He was pleased th a t their party \vas represented b^’-such eligible candidates. Three of'them Were selfmiade men—men wlio had n s tu i'to the position they .liold’ by-sheer force of indiistrV and business taef. '‘niese*' were the best credentials a-c.andidate, could ;show.; i Men who had shown themselves well able to manage their own.-businesscs were likely to be able to properly conduct municipal business. IJo then called upon the candidates one by ono to address the meeting. ) ... J\Ir. Abraliam Koberts said he laid no claim to


.being a. good speaker, but- would give place to no -ono,as a worker. He hoped they would keep up a good courage, and go into the ; fight with the determination to win. Ho advised tlio canvassers to'put-down no name until they liad seen the person, but to do thoir level best, .and they would then hold up their heads as they went home next Monday evening.


.Besides, he had some selj-respcct, and he had no f'diislri: to .^york for the public if> tliey did not r(j«ent his services. (Hear, hear.) However- as hc'liad received .a unanimous invitation, lie was prepared to do Ills best, and *hc liojiod his collcacues would not be left out in tlie cold. He was^ospeciallv anxious for U r . Roberts, who seemed to be the' only man in tlie town who knew tiic secret of coining money. (Loud laughter.) Ho was very


mind not to make a speech-this election, because whenrlie contested before he relied on speaking nnd net working. ■ ;This time he was going to reverse the order of things. . (Hoar, hear.)- Although he had been perfectly neutral in the matter of forcing a contest, he was re.ally glad a t the turn things had taken. JIc stated in his .address, lie did not think i t an honour to sit in the Council for six venrs witliout having I bc‘Cn sent by th e ratepayers.


the spccclics of the other three candidates, tliey would not require a long one from him. He was glad to be associatedwith those candidates. He was doing Ins best to win, and hoped those pre-sent would do their best to ensure the election of the whole four.- j r-

He expressed himself as quite satisfied with the canvassing, and thought they might win a big victory it they would do their best. T There was a good deal in the Chair­ man s remark about self-made men. Men who had built up a business were not likely to squander monc^', but would be more likely.to look keenly after tho ratepayers’ interests. He was glad of ^fr. Robinson s remarks. Mr. Robinson had had experience on thc.Ccuncil, nnd was a man tried and provedi l^or himself he had not had th a t ex­ perience, but he had the qualification ol a life loii;_ connection with and interest in tlie afiairs of the town. He repeated th a t lie felt confident of victory

In Nelson they lield cverv meeting, except the monthly meeting, after six o clock, and if they only attended to their business and prospered like Nelson, tlicy would be bettor off in Clitheroe. (Hear, hear.) I f i t were practicable he would advocate all meetings in Olithcroe being held after six oclock. (Applause) He liad always advoc.ated tlio idea of having every section of the community represonted in the Town' Council. On one or two occasions he had offered to subscribe, to induce a working man to come for­ ward and representi hi.s> class in the Council (He.ar, lioar) Judging by the signs of the he could see th a t there would not alw.ays be a mono­ poly, for every class would have to be repro‘;ontcd.

(Applause). He only hoped they would take up the suggestion, lor technical education affected them and their welfare a.s much as anv brancli of the conimunity. (Hear, hoar). In conclusion, he urged all the workers to do their utmost, and not let their candidates be defeated- !Mr J. i . Bracc'vell said the chairman had been

Cowman, la st time he was elected he was returned a t the head of the poll, and ho did not sec why he should, not occupy th a t position a(,ain. (Hear, hear.) Ho was not ono of tho windbags, but would do good, practical work. Mr. Dewimrst was one of tlio best members of the •Town Council, and if he should not be returned i t would be a great loss to tlio town and to tho ra te ­ payers. • (Ilear, Iicar.)

In Mr. Crabtree they had a new man, but he was a man who had built up .a good business, .and he -always honestly believed th a t a man who was capable of making a business for himself and a position in the w’orld was one of the most likely to represent the ratepayers in tlic Town Council.
