As junior judges die _heir places wilt not be filled and in case of a vacancy in senior judgeship it will be filled from among jnntpr judges until the number is reduced to conform with the Bill. Another provision is chat in lieu of the various fees payable .hy_the province to. the judges, there will be a flat amount -tif $1,000 payable by the province of Onta co to supplement the salary of $3,00(7 paid to County Judges by the Dominion Government.

MacKinnon a son, Joseph Donald. ie to -control or ruin the :prime minister. Northcliffe with•his newspapers and his unlimited wealth is a tremendous force in- Britain, but Lloyd -George has 'faced bizn in the open, and challenged him. to (do .his worst. • In 1915 and 1916 'when the wee was not going well for Britain, Northcliffe attacked Premier Asquith. and supported Lloyd -George as the bead of the govern- ment. Together they won the day, and George became prime minister. `Ter-. haps Northcliffe thought that he'"did it"; and that having made the prime min- ister inister he would control him. If so, there were !some all important though in- tangible thiujs which, like the Ger- mans in commencing the war, he over- looked. There was another force than North- cliffe and his papers which had to do with patting•Lloyd-George at .the head of the government. That was .public opinion, and the Northcliffe papers haven't everything to do with making public opinion. • It would seem that Lord Northcliffe either wanted an important appoint - me nt as ono :of- the -British represent- atives to the Peace Conference or he wanted to direct the British delegates there. He likely wanted the appoint- ment. He didn't gel that, and Lloyd - George showed at the conference that he had mind of his own. He was soon attacked by the Ncrtb- cliffe papers, which for months have en, deavored to stir up strife, or make the, British people believe •that there -vas strife between Britain and France, Brit- ain and the Uuitel States, and France ,and the •United States -all evidently wit ,the object of destroying I loyd- George'8 political career. But George, like the late. Mr: •Rooee- 'vele, is a eort of magician 'in catching the ear of the public, and getting in line with public opinion, - Instead of cringing before the mighty giant, Northclitie, he boldly went to the House of Commons, def-nded his own actions in a way that brought convic- tion to the country, and attacked the London Times (Northeliffe's big gun) and insulted i•ts proprietor in a way which makes reconciliation forever impossible. The Times retaliated, but its labored effort was too evidently a personal affair, leaving the Impression that while Lloyd George fights for the public interest,, The Times is fighting for itself. That;& ie its weakness. The people will recog- nize it, and they will not believe what it says.

Besides the 80.kiltiogs since Jaid. Int, 202 stores have been robbed, 9.f saloons held up and' looted, and three ticket sel- lers on the elevated railways forced to give up their cash. There has been wave of crime all ` right, and it looks as though it may becomes .steady,cur- sent.. The chief of police ascribes the "wave" to the discharge of many criminals from the army, unemployment, and not encugh policemen: But there is also a laxity, of enforce- ment of the laws in Chicago. Only about one murderer in one hundred is fought -to justice, •and only a small per- centage are ever arrested. Citizens must depend largely upon themselves for safety and the protection of their property. PROTECTION TOO The effort en the part .3f Canadian dairymen and the big dealers in dairy 'Products to exclude oleomargarine from Canada is as unjustifiable as is the demand by manufacturers of firm michiaery and dairy equipment for- s protective tariff iso high that it will shut off all outside competition. The contention that margarine is un- wholesome, and that it is fraudulently substituted for butter, should get no consideration. It would have to be pretty bad stuff to be worse than some butter that is brought to market, and it is no longer passed off as butter, but is- a recognized Jarticle of ►cemmerce. .In the United States it sells as margarine and not as butter. • Margarine is much nearer being real butter than many suppose. It is the product of an effort to produce .real but- ler hem -animal fats-iiiihout tbs round- about process of getting the fat from the milk of cows. The wnuld be inven- ter of a new process of making brltter acts not wh )Ily successful, but he suc- ceeded in -producing an article closely resembling good butter, not only in cul at- and rand taste, but in .chemical ingredience and in food value. It is made largely from the fats of, cattle and hr gm, treated in such a way as to extract the elements which distingui3h tallow and lard from butter. . With butter at present prices, which must be prohibiting to many f tmilies, the making and importation of margar - me ought to be not only p'rrnitted but enenuraged. Those opposed to 'it are not at all concerned with the health of the con- • They simply -wants of the butter market, that they may wring a few mote dollars from the hungry.

P. 0. move- ment: ' • The patron movement. in Ontario.. rose to its full strength in 1894 •when 17 metrlbers of the organization were elected to the Ontario Legislature, two of them being from Bruce County, M. Naughton froe.. Bruce Tp. being the winner in North. Bruce -by a majority of 282 over the Liberal. opponent • and 428 over the Conservative.

They were rebuffed by the Bordon Govt. and the immediate re.'u t was the formation el U.

But, in most Cases, the Ford Truck will be sold as a complete Ford job. The body as well as the chassis will be planned to give Ford service. This radical sthp in the production of Trucks is being taken to insure the utmost efficiency from the Ford Truck; to give the purchaser Ford value in every part of his truck; to proiluce better bodies at lower prices. Two Standard Bodies The two types of Truck bodies most widely used are the Stake and the Express. These types will be kept in stock, set up, paiipted (or in the lead) and ready for pfrompt delivery. They have oak floors, sills of seasoned hickory and specially de- signed forgings and castings. The construction at every point provides for rough usage such as every truck is bound to get. Enclosed Cab The driver gets proper protection in theEnclosed Gab of theForci,Truck. This cab can be ciosed up tight, or jperfectly ventilated. It has sliding windows and two-way double venti- lating windshield. These complete Ford Trucks are an sale NOW. Call and learn what it will cost to use them in your business. Look them over carefully. See how they outclass other Trucks in every detail. 1 Price (Chassis only) Standard Ford Bodies extra. Get our prices E. A. RENWICK, Dealer, LUCKNOW.
