REFORM CONVENTION

[Welland Tribune, 1 January 1904]

The reformers of the County of Welland will meet in convention on Thursday next, Jan.7th at 1 p.m., in the court house at Welland, to place their candidate in the field for the pending election for the House of Commons.

Arrangements are being made to secure some prominent speaker aside from local men, and a great gathering is anticipated for this first Liberal nominating convention for the reunited county of Welland, which now includes Pelham and Wainfleet for the Commons constituency.

Although the nominations will be by delegates, all Liberals and all supporters of the present Government of the Dominion are invited to attend and thus evince their appreciation of a good honest, progressive government -a government under which Canada has prospered and progressed and developed as never before.
