It is pretty low, mean, detestable and scandalous that the Conservatives resort to such means to delude an intelligent electorate. This week large quantites of campaign matter were received here ley workers of the opposite side of pure X,iberalism, and a party in town has been `very energetic of late in seeing that this odious and false stuff is liberally distri- 3intecl: The latest we have heard of is a Sheet made to appear as the Toronto Globe, in fact the heading is an exact • lac -simile of the Globe, but the reader can easily see that the type and cartoon is that of the Montreal Star (Tupper's ;sheet,) or resembles it at least.

He certainly made an awful exposure of himself, but it is very unbecoming in a Tory paper to cast it up to him, for it was at the instigation of Tories that he made so great an ex- hibition of himself. The notorious Tom Pepper las taken a position- at the Conservative Central Committee Rooms in Toronto to assist in preparing campaign. literature. His well known talents admirably fit hint for the work he will have to do. His appointment will soothe the feelings of those members of the party who were dissatisfied with the prominence given to Hugh John, the truth teller.

The 1900:ones wore not finallyrevised in time. In the days of the old franchise law, it is not recorded diet the Conservative press protested against' that iniquitous measure though the lists used at the last election were three or four years old. On that occasion hundreds of persons oast ballots who had been out of the country long before, and thousands of young mon who were citizens were deprived of the franchise.

DEAD, Sul, --My father takes both the Tnrrs and Advance, but I seldom read thein, except to see the school reports. But as to -day is Saturday and too cold to go in swimming, after I had studied my lessons for Monday, I thought I CANADA experts of farm produce in- cluding butter, cheese, eggs, bacon, beef, hams, mutton, pork, apples, oats, peas, wheat, dour and potatoes amounted dur- ing the last three years of Tory anti -pre- ferential policy to $85,000,000. During the last three years of Laurier's "too British" preferential policy, the value of the same article exported to Great Britain amounted to $160,000,000.— almost double. It is not likely •that Laurier is too,British for the Canadian farmer though Sir Charles Tupper de- aler es that he is too British for him. would look at the papers.' I picked up the Advance, and about the first piece I xead was giving you fits for making a mistake in grammar. I don't pretend to know much about grammar; my teacher says I am no good at it, but I think the Advance ought to correct its own mistakes before it tries to find fault with the Teems. I intend to be a printer when I grow up, and if any other fellow finds fault with what is in my paper, I'll punch.. him. See if I don't! I read some more in the Advance, and my opinion is, that if .the editor of that paper had to .write compositions for my teacher, he would be kept in every night for mistakes: His spelling is awful. Thick of a man spelling business with- out any i, and malleable—mallaable! I haven't got on very far in my gram- mar, but I know that " The subject of. the sermons aro as follows," is wrong; my teacher says so, and she knows. An- other thing she says is never to end sip a sentence with a preposition, but the Advance does. In the account of the Epworth League Convention at Gerrie, there is the following sentence: "These annual gatherings are eagerly looked forward to." Titis may pass all right in the Advance office, but it wouldn't do in my room at school. The Advance also says: " Mr. Geo, McKenzie is fitting up the building used as a marble works for a dwelling" 1 wrote a sentence like that once in a composition, and my teacher said I must have been talking too much with Jim Leo, the Chinaman. The Advance in: tended to say: "Mr. McKenzie is fitting up for a dwelling, the building formerly used as a marble works." We often haee to correct sentences like that at school. There is another sentence just as bad. It reads: " From outside points Wing - ham League was the best represented." I would hate to have to analyze that sentence. The Advance may think it is right, but my teacher wouldn't, and I intend to stand. by what she says. Here is another crooked one: " Evan- gelistic services are being held this week in a majority of the Methodist churches in Canada, in connection with the Twen- tieth Century Effort." What does that mean anyway? Does it mean that all the Methodist churches are not in con- nection with the effort, or does it mean that services are being held in a majority of the churches that are in. sympathy with it? I asked my teacher and she says the Advance means that "" Evan- gelistic services in connection with the Twentieth Century Effort, are being held this week in a mnjority of the Methodist churches in Canada." 1 like the Advance pretty well. There are a few funny paragraphs on tho in- side pages, and 1 didn't find any gram- matical errors there, but that part of the paper isn't printed in Wingham, 1 think the editor of the Advance ought to get his whole paper printed in Toronto. There are lots of other mistakes in the Advance, but 1 can only take time to tell you about 0110 more,. then 1 must go and bring honio the cow. 1 get twenty- five cents a month for looking after the cow and 1 am saving my money to bay a pair of skates for winter. This is the other sientenc0 1 want to show von: "For eighty years or more Mr, Cook, or his father, beam been identi- fled with the Liberal party," That is the very same kind of a mistake the Advance criticized the Tides for making. "People who live in glass houses should not throw stones." That is what our teacher says to us. I am not .a Grit or a Tory yet; my folks go 'to the Methodist clhurab, but whether Dr. Macdonald or Mr. Dickin- son is elected, I hope there willbe a pro- cession and a bonfire, and that my father will let Hie go to see the fun. Yours truly, If the tariff put in force by the late G overnment had been in operation in the last three years the • public would have to pay over eight million dollars. more taxes than have been collected under the reduced tariff, and the British preferential tariff has caused the Yankee who wanted to sell in Canadian mark- ets, to much reduce his price if he want- ed to sell at all. Yet the Opposition wants to get in power to repeal the tariff preference for British goods and to de- stroy the Canadian agricultural imple- m ent business. In this the public will not support them.

It has to shovel a good deal of mud for its party. While making a loud profes- sion of fairness, its practice is just the opposite. Was there anything fair or honest in publishing 11. H. Cook's un- supported statements, and not mention- ing the fact that Sir WilfridLaurier had emphatically contradicted them, and challenged Cook to produce his proofs? "Consistency thou art a jewel," is not the working motto of Dickinson's Dredge. "Ail the elections will not be held on November 7th.

The foregoing is another sample of the fairness of the Advance. The editor of the Advance knows, or at least he should know, that this is the same order of things as prevailed under the Con- servative Government. The elections in the constituencies named by the Advance have always been held a week or ten days later than the others.
