a ote on the measure will be given to
all Outario soldiery, in England and at
the front as well as in the training
camps at home,
Rumpr, well defined rumor at that,
claims a large number of 'Conservative
members of the House to be angered at
the Government for committing the
party to the prohibition proposal with-
out consulting caucus. it was apparent
almost painfully noticeable indeed, that
Premier Rearst'sremeeks on prohibition
were received very coldlyand with little
applause from the Government side,
although they were vigorously applaud-
ed by Mr. Rowell and the Opposition.
Mr. Rowell said, 44; am prepared
cordially to support the Government in
carrying out the proposals they submit,
if these proposals are as I understand
them to be, as outlined in the Speech
from the Throne."
Mr. Rowell read a statement made by
him in the House two years ago, in
which he offered to eo-operate with the
Government in wiping, all bars,
shops and clubs, either by legislative
action or by a bill followed by a
referendum.
"I stand where I stood two years
ago on this matter," said Mr. Rowell.
"We would present a united front
I shall be glad to join the Prime
Minister in going before the people and
asking their endorsethent
andrati-
fication of the measure.
The contested bye:elections since the
general election of 1914 anti their re-
sults are as follows:
June 1914 Bye -elections
Hamilton W, Con Maj. 1411 Con M 36
Dundas, Con MaA, 673 Con M 62
Peel Con Ma 3 Lib M 305
In Hamilton West, therefore,.the
Government majority, was redueed by
1375; in Dundas by 611, and in Peel the
Government lost the seat with a change
of 932. In those three bye -elections,
therefore, the chatige. against the
Government amounted to 2918, or an
average of almost aithensand.
If the slump centitmes or ;f it con-
tinues half' as much :4,in these three
cases, the Oveiniitent` raiiiiity will be
entirely wiped out tit the next election
and Mr. Rowell will be in power by a
comfortable majority.

To fill the depleted ranks of faun
labor in Ontario on account of the war,
no fewer than 15,00J male students of
fifteen years and upwards attending
schools and collegiate institutes will be
available this summer or farm work,
and, an effort is also being made to ob-
tain American labor, It is understood
that two representatives of the
Colonization Department have been de..
patched to Port Huron and Syracuse to
make plans and report as to what help
is available there. It is stated that
from this quarter 500 or 600 men are
aimed at. It is not 'considered that any
difficulties will arise from the
authorities on the American side.
Graft and patronage are being con-
demned in Ottawa. Geod. But may
the matter not end there? There have
always been plenty .of anti -graft
and anti -patronage speeches and
two years ago we should have ad-
mitted their uselessness.. But there is
more hope now. This country is get-
ting its first taste of direct taxation. In
years to come it will take a good deal of
that sort of thing, for the Minister of
Finance speaks quite openly of a pos-
sible annual interest bill of $25',000,000
on our war debt alone. This will make
us dig down into our pockets. and the
deeper we dig down the more we'll
watch how. the cash is handled at Ot-
tawa. There is ground for hoping bet-
ter days are coming in public life. We
have been shocked ant sobered We
are learning just how solemn and real
a thing our state is, and we are likely
to abandon our long-standing indiffer-
ence to candidates and the habit of
winking at graft. 13y -and -bye political
life will attract the hest men in this
country, and party loyalty will not be
as strong as it is now. The idea will
be "better business government"
lather than "my party, right or wrong."
That way lies economy and progress. -

. PROHIBITION 'COMING
-- -
(London Adyertiser)
Faced with the evidence of an over..
whelming feeling in favour of provin
tial prohibition during the war, Premier
Hearst and his ministers are, apparently.
going to give the people an opportunity
to bring about this condition by their
votes, and their is little doubt that all
those who willingly signed the petition
will mark their ballots in the same
cause and will be joined by many others
who hesitated. for various reasons, to
publicly offend the liquor interests by
indorsing the public demand. As a
method of bringing the question befOre
the people, little fault can be found
with a referendum and it is one way
of granting the request of petitioners,
Had the provincial gov'ernment been
more courageous and passed wartime
prohibition on the strength of the huge
petition, it would have saved money.
but. perhaps that was tco much to ex-
pect from the party which wasreturned
to power on its opposition to abolishing
the bar.
When the bars and shops are closed
and the licensed selling of liquor abolish-
ed, temporarily at least, no political
party will be able to claim the credit;
that must go directly to the people.
Had the Liberals been- in the majority
after the last election, there would have
been little need for any referendum now
as the bars would have been closed al-
ready, They were defeated because
"abolish the bar" did not have the
sanction of many temperance fol,e

weaker and less able to get around.
Then. I decided to try a doctor in To-
ronto, and was under his treatment for
about four .months with nobetter re-
sults. I gave up the doctors and tried
other remedies which were equally fu-
tile. Then one day our storekeeper
sent me, a box of 'Dr. Williams Pink
Pills, saying, that ifthey did not help
me I need not pay for them. I took
them and then got some more and
found they were helping. me. 1 prob-
ably used $10.00worth, before I felt
fully cured, but they did cure me and,
were cheap as compared with the other
treatments which did not help me. The
cure was made several years ago,. and I
have not had a twinge of rheumatism
since. To -day I am well and strong

• Again it is our dutylto chronicle the
demise of one of the 'earliest residents
of Culross in the person of Alizabeth
Forgety, relict of the lliteJaMes Smyth,
who passed away on Feb'y 26th. Mrs.
Smith was born in Mayborough, Queen's
County, Irelansl, 93. years ago, being
the daughter of Edward ,Forgety, Civil
Engineer. She came to. America at
the age of 14 and lived in New York and
Baltimore for some years at the time
of slavery and saw children sold from
their parents, also heard Abraham Lin-
coln in Madison Square Gardens. In
1856 she core t� Normandy township,
where She „married her late husband.
Here they resided for a short time and
then moved to her late home on Con.
12 which at that time was part of
Queen's Bush and was purchased from
the government agent at Southampton
several years before the construction
of the present gravel road. The farm
was then a solid standing forest, and
bears and deer were not uncOmmcm,
but they settled down' to severe pioneer
life and hewed out for themselves a
home amid the Waving tree tops. Six
children blessed their union, and all but
one, a son who died in infancy, survive.
Her late husband predeceased her al-
most 26 years ago, since which time
she has resided on the homestead with
her eldest son.
