The Presiden- tal elections in the United States will be held an the 6tb. of November, the elections in the Dominion of Canada on the 7th, and the Newfoundland elections on the 7th. 4- x The extracts from the Globe in the Conservative campaign sheet are nei- ther bogus nor forgeries, and when ranting Liberal editors say they are, they simply attempt to deceive the people in the hope of stopping them from reading them. Thev are afraid of the truth and dread exposure of their trickery and inconsistencies. • * A correspondent informs the Toron- to World that the pulp wood conces- sion in which candidates Rowell, in Bast York, and Flea in Centre To- ronto, are interested embraces an area of 4080 squaremiles, or 2,560,000 acres, along the Nepigon River. The conces- sion was only obtained last spring. • It is now in the market, and the price asked is $100,000 cash. That is the val- ve the grafters place upon the docu- ment they obtained from the Ontario Government for nothing, The Liberal leaders have been badly beeten on all their trade policies. When filially installecl in power, they had broken all the promises they had ever made. The taxation had not been reduced, The people were in the hands of monopolies.
