A historical political pamphlet packed with data and debate from Ontario’s late-19th century governance.

This edition collects facts, figures, and arguments used in the Liberal-Conservative campaigns, including the speech by W. R. Meredith, and explores how spending, revenue, and policy were framed during a pivotal period.

The material is presented in a way that helps readers understand historical political strategy and budget debates without requiring prior background.
