Prior to the convention Mr, Log an’s name was but little mentioned as a candidate but as so often hap pens he came through as the “dark horse” of the convention. Mr. Logan, prior to his selection, took a definite stand against beer par lours. He said he was a “teetotler” and that Liquor Control was 100% better than the beverage rooms of to day. Beverage rooms, he said, must be wiped out of our land. Born in Huron Township Mr. Logan was born in Huron Township, Bruce County, and has been a resident of Bruce all his life except for short periods spent in To ronto and London. He at present is engaged in the real estate, insurance business in Teeswater. It is time for a change, he said and felt that Hur on-Bruce would elect a conservative if those present would co-operate with the candidate. Following his choice as candidate Mr. Logan repeated his stand on the beer parlours and said the abolishing of them would be one of the main planks in his platform because it had been his stand through life. He ask ed “Why should Huron have bever age rooms? HepbuunJias, made a big surplus from beer,” he said. 'He called attention to the fact that farm loans had been cut off by Hep burn and suggested that such loans be made in a similar^way to the Home Improvement Plan.
