Sir Wilfred Laurier and a few of the ex -cabinet ministers who went down to defeat can September 21st, 1911, say not - a, dollar to aid theweary titan in `'sef, tight foi- naval supremacy - Interesting figures concerning the atumher of rural mail boxes bought by the late Libery Goverment just before goingo'rt of office ere shown in a state- ment m Lee in answer to a question by ?i3r.Rainville. Itis shown that before leaving office the Liberal Goverment bought no less than 110,000 boxes, and bought theta without tender at $3 each. Of that number, up to Dscember31, 1911 and 18,846 had been used, so that there re- mained as a Iegacy of the late ad- min(str•itian almost 100.000 boxes va•hwn they went ont of office at the last ell ction. On coming into office Hon. L. P. Pelletier came i r a e to the conclusion that the price that was being paid under the contract negotiated by ?dr. Lemieux was altogether ton high, and he went after the manufactories, with the result that they cut one-tenth of the price on no less than 50,000 of the boxes contracted for, a clear saving to the country of $15 000. THE CLOSURE 11 e present rules of the House of ..�or'v ions were intended to apply to it and reasonable men, but are :atterls inadequate when a different class of men come into the House determined class of men though in a minority Men like Sir Allen Aylcs- worth Hort. Sidney Fisher, and Hon. Wm _Paterson, backed by the Chief Liberal organ, came to the conclusion that closure was glees - sary Now the Conservatives have come to the same conclusion, driven to it by the suffragette tacties of the wild men who took charge of. the Opposition during Sir Wilfred Laurier's absence, and afterwards corn pelled Sir Wilfred to back them up Closure is necessary, not for the purpose of passing the navy hill salon:,, but for the future.. Under the direction of so moderate •a •nan as Mr. Borden it will never be abus- ed but it is necessary to insure the exe.:ution of the people's wine and for the business like execution of ppubliu. business. i+,PWORTH LEAGUE TION ONVEN- The Exeter District Epworth Lea- gue Convention was held in the James Stree" Methodist Church. on Tuesday afteznoon and evening of this week when a large number of relaresenta tures were present from var iotas parts of the District, and several in- teresting .papers were read and ad- dresse=s given.
