TWENTY YEARS AF'T'ER
Where men make bloa;l macritice,
And.rule the earth with slain,
Kind Mother Nature ever tries
To cover up the stain,
'Alid charnel of the tiger's den
May pure white lilies blow,
And on the graves of warlike men
The peaceful daisies grow.
The grass is all the greener now
Where men most fiercely strove„
And plaids may hear on Vimy's brow
The cooing of the dove.
Where cannon roared by night and clay,
And men in thousands fell,
Now sunny headed children play
And pick up bits of shell.
Where once raged war's infernal din,
And bullets fell like rain,
The peaceful peasants gather in
A hundred fold of grain;
And where men plied the deadly steel,
And blood ran red like wine,
We see the holy sisters kneel
Beside the rebuilt shrine.
Andover on the rising ground
The fresh young maples stand
To mark the graves of those who foun d
Death in a foreign land,
Here women of the nameless woes,
Still pray when day is done,
That God will rest the souls of those,
Who strafed the hellish Hun.

BODY FOUND iN RiVER
lnfaet in the Maitland with Skull
o Fractured
Considerable excitement was caused in
town on Friday night when it became
known that the body of an infant was.
found in the river behind Mr, J. J.
Brooks' residence on Victoria St. A
couple of little girls found it, caught in a
clump of bushes near the edge of the
water shortly after five o'clock, Coroner
Dr. Kennedy and Chief Allen were at
once summoned and had the body remov-
ed to Currie's undertaking rooms.
A jury composed of Dr. A. J. Irwin,
Amos Tipling, Jas. G. Stewart, J A. Cur-
rie, E. R Harrison, J. Crandell and E.
Lewis viewed the body on Saturday morn-
ing and adjourned to get further evidence
until Monday, November 12th. The head
of the child had the appearance of receiv-
ing a wicked blow from some heavy in-
strument, as the skull was broken in, and
a portion of the lungs was protruding
through a hole in its side. The body was
that of a newly,born female child, and its
limbs appeared to be well developed. It
had no clothing except but a small band
about its body.

to write the military authorities of this

excellent armouries, and the town could
be turned into excellent wintering quart-
ers for the troops,

WIN.THE•WAR CANDIDATE
Jas. Bowman the Unanimous Choice of
Union Convention
The Union Government Convention of
North Huron was held in the Town Hall,
Wingham) on Tuesday, Oct. 30th, Ow -
Ing to the disagreeable weather the
gathering was not as large as it otherwise
would have been. The President, Mr, P.
W. Scott called the meeting to order and
explained that it was with regret they had
not received a favourable reply to their
invitation to meet with the Liberals
in a Union Convention, On motion of
Mr Robert McMurray and Mr. John
Dane the nomination of a Union Win -the -
war Govt Candidate was proceeded
with. The name of Mr. Jas, Bowman
was the only one brought before the con-
vention and his nomination was unani-
mously carried by both Liberals and Con-
servatives present.
FIRE AT WINGHAM
Merkley's Storehouse Burned to the
Ground
About five on Saturday morning fire
was noticed in the building behind 1\4erk-
ley's garage and repair shop and the lire
alarm was at once sent in, hut, although
the firemen responded promptly the
building was beyond saving when they ar-
rived and their efforts were turned to
saving the Beattie livery barn which was
directly in the line that the heavy wind
carried the sparks,
Mr. Merkley had $750 insurance on the
contents and $150 on the building but tve'
learn from him that his loss will be more
like $2,003, for he had stored in the build-
ing over a hundred dollars worth of apple -
butter, besides considerable machinery,
Just what caused the lire is an unsolved
mystery, but it looks as though it was the
work of an incendiary.
MR, JAMES BOWMAN, UNION CANDIDATE
Mr. Bowman thanked the electors for
the honour, he prized it even more than
he did the similiar honour conferred upon
him at the last nomination by the Con
servatives for he was thus reassured that
the people of North Huron were at this
time of great crisis thinking of something
other than politics. Mr. Bowman ex-
plained why he had suggested at the Con-
servative meeting that no candidate be
selected but that the Liberals be invited
to meet with the Conservatives in a
Union Win -the -War Convention. He
was willing to if need be, drop out of
politics and support whoever this Union
Convention would choose and thus save
this riding at least, an election in a time
when all should be united. If the Lib-
eral Executive, or that small portion of
them who passed the resolution to not
unite with the Conservatives unless they
be allowed to run their candidate, were
really patriotic why not come out to this
Union Convention and leave it to the
Union Convention to decide who would
represent, thein Mr. Hyslop, the man
whom they suggested to run as a Union
Candidate did not think it worth his
while to appear before the Union Conven-
tion and state his case. He is on record
not as a supporter of Union or Win -the -
War Government but as astrong Support-
er of Sir Wilfrid Laurier and who at a
Liberal meeting with Sir Wilfrid in Toron-
to only very recently said in part of his
speech the following: --
"Like of :riflemen present, I came
here expeet-rig to hear an explanation of
whysome of our leaders at Ottawa broke
away from the party, but while I have
listened to them, I have not heard any
explanation. I carne here in a confused
state of mind, and my present condition
may be described as one of confusion
worse confounded. I think that the situ-
ation brought about by the position taken
by our friends Graham, Pardee and Guth-
rie is a most deplorable one. I do not
know how they got into it, but the opin-
ion in our part of the country is that they
must have been soft-headed to allow
themselves to take the attitude they did,
There is no use in mincing matters on
this subject, and 1 do not propose to do
so. The people are prepared to support
the Liberals in tate next election if the
p ople are given a proper uuderstandiag
of what the Liberal platform is, and for
my part, as I am opposed to any policy
except that laid down by my leader, Sir
Wilfrid Laurier, it is on that policy that I
intend to ask support from my electors.
The sooner our friends recognize that their
course at Ottawa is not approved by the
people at large the better for themselves
and for the party. United action is nec-
essary and it cannot come too soon."
Quite a contrast to the stand taken by
Mr. Bowman who has on every occasion
voted conscientionly in support of every
issue for the purpose of carrying on the
war to a successful end. He has proved
a genuine Win -the -War representative
and his actions have won him new friends
in North Huron. The Military Service
Act was a supreme necessity to win the
war and Sir Robert Borden did not en-
force conscription until he found it ab-
solutely necessary. Mr. Bowman con-
cluded his remarks by stating that so far
as he was concerned, until the end of the
war at least, he would throw party politics
to the winds always looking to assist in
the winning of the war and he would use
Liberal and Conservative alike.
Mr. A. H. Musgrove M L. A. in a stir-
ring speech denounced the action of Sir
Wilfrid and his followers, who put party
ahead of country. He thought the Lib-
eral executive had used very poor judge-
ment in not meeting with the Union Win -
the -War people its Convention there or in
not even calling for any Liberals to attend
their committee meeting in Blyth, who di(
not belong to the executive. He stated
that in all his many recruiting or patriotic
speeches he had yet to meet Mr. Hyslop
on the platfotni or find just where he
stood on these all important questions.
Short speeches were also delivered by
Dr. Macklin and Wm Campbell of (..;ode.
rich, W H. Willis, Geo. Spotton and H.
B. Elliott of Winghans and A. W. Robin-
son of Blyth.
Mr Elliott who is a Liberal and editor
of the Wingham Times pledged himself to
support the Union Got etnnient Candidate
He is one of the many v1io put their poli-
tical leanings in the back ground and first
and foremost in their minds is the winning
of the war. Mr. Willis is an independent
who is in favour of Sir Robert Borden's
(Union Government, he would like to see
the Senate remo vcd forever,
