DOMINION
Toronto, June 18.-0es*r.i awtiater-
tion is expressed a t the esadidaty of
Mr. John Mc(luakrr, who has beret
I Dominated by the Llbers s to eonte.t
the North Grey neat for 1M Local
Housemods Vacant by the reaignetlou
of Hon. G. MacKay. The Domtoa-
lion tasseling war the *erne of eery real
eothu.iesw and it is confidently ex-
pected that Mr. McQu.krr w111 hold
the seat in the Literal Interests,
He i • weII ktr,w o teulperaoce man
and with biro bs cae.Iidaie the
"abolish the het" policy is sure to play
ao important part.
Mr. McQuaker is a c m,unision mer-
chant in Oweu Sound and also the
owner of a creamery.
A proceseiop composed ex.lusively
of automobiles over a mile lung in a
Lown the size of Aylmer is quite an
event. Tbis was out one of marry un-
usual features in eounection with the
mounter Liberal picoic held in that
town on June 12. The celebration was
held at the fair grottodb and the large
Kranietauel w .. nut nearly large
enough to bold the crowds. The lead-
ing speakers were N. W. Howell, K. C..
M. 1'. 1' , Hon. George P. Graham,
Hou. Mackenzie King and W. T.
Chat hon, Liberal candidate in Bast
Elgin for the Dominion House. Mr.
Mows 11 referred to etas resignation of
the Hoeg/trier' Cabinet owiog to the
Prime Minister a having taken a oon-
ttibutiou front a firm doing bubioesa
with the country. "Ai•e the people of
Ontario," asked Mr. Rowell, "lees sen-
sitive than' the people of Hungary on
questioosalYect ing :he b nor of our pub
,lone' and the bonest adniinistrat ion
of public affairs? 1 debut believe they
are. Except as to tbe amount of rte con-
tribution and except that the payment
was made in the one case to the Prime:
Minister and in the other to the Pro-
vincial Secretary. all that was estab-
lished in the Hungarian case Sir
Jaynes Whitney and Mr. Hanna were
forced to admit. The principles, laid
down in the case of the Hunearian
Cabinet applied equally to the Whit-
ney Government, with this important
addition, that with the Whitney Gov-
ernment the act was not only illegal
but was criminal as well. Mr: Rowell.
said that if the members of any
British Cabinet had been found guilty,
of any sucb conduct. public opinion in
Great Britain would have demanded
their immediate retirement. He de -
chit .d that the Government had pur-
chased the silence of the roan who was
Prepared to expose them. riot with
their own money but at the expense of
the people of the Province. He was
referring to the -abandonment by the
Ourernruent of the defences it had set
up in the Taylor -Scott buil, in wbicb,
on the judgment of Mt. Thorne as
sole arbitrator without appeal, Mr.
Taylor tthe Taylor -Scott Co.) received
g'21,000 of the people's money. As the
explanation of such action on the part
of the Government, Mr. Rowell quoted
a sentence from the Tborne letter.
"Phe' Wbitoey Governments -It stated.
"as such were just as near to an over•
throw about December, 11411, as it is
possible to go. The tube was ready
and the Match lighted."
"And it was with the people's
money," declared Mr- Rowell. "that
this exposure was suppreasrd."
Mr. Rowell coruplaiued that the
Prime Minister had been constantly
miereprr.enting his "abolish the bar"
policy and therefore took this creation
to state in definite terms exactly what
that policy meant. By it. every bar-
room, that is to say. every botel liquor
liceo*e, would be wiped out, evert
club licence would he wiped out and
the treating :systeru would be
abolished. As to the shops, at the'
present time they existed in only about
(me -tenth of the municipalities of the
Province. The Liberal policy. tbrte-
fore, would mean in nine-teritle of the
municipalities the complete abolition
of the retail sale of liquor and in the re -
Ordaining one-tenth where *bops now
exist they would be subjected to further
restrictions and would he wiped out by
local option wbere the elector should
eo decide.

Two impor Mot new points were
brought out by W,Iflam Proudfoot,
K. C. M. P. P., in his speech at tbe
Liberal picnic at Erin on June 13. In
the first place. hesitated that Sir James

of • third party informed George C.
Taylor of his violation of the criminal
code in paying over the 11500 to Hoe. W.
J. Hanna. and that he could refuse to
gine evideoce �o the ground that it
would incriminate him. 'Ilse knew that
the same thing applied to Hon. W. J.
Hanna, who received the money. Mr.
Proodfoot went further and stated that
the c:srn.el for the Prime Miuisler and
the Provincial Secretary bad been in-
formed that Mr. Taylor declined
to take the shelter pointed nut

committee he would tell the whole
