EDITORIAL NOTES
That the increasing attachment of
Canadians to the mother country had
been coincident with the development
of her autonomy was the dominant note
in a splendid speech delivered Friday
night by N. W. Rowell, K. C., before
sixty members of the Galt Club, at the
first of a series of banquets arranged
for the winter, at which prominent men
will discuss important issues. "Two
things," he said, "have been outstand-
ing in our national life of recent years;
the increasing assertion of Canadians
of the right to manage there own
affairs, with the tendency of the mother
country to recognize this, and the recog-
nition on our part of the advantages of
closer relations with the mother coun-
try."
to approve the general principle of Can-
adieu662 participation in Imperial defence, tlJ"L(�w Number
the members all rose in a body and sang
the National Anthem. The Liberal
Leader, Sir Wilfrid Laurier, who on ;
rising was given au ovation equal to
that of the Premier, had but two brief
but significant comments to offer for
the present. Ile declared that every
Liberal in the House shared in all the
expressions of log alty and devotion to
the British Empire, and that the peo-
ple of Canada would be glad toknow,on
the authority of the Admiralty, that
any danger which might threaten Bri-
tain was prospective rather than im-
mediate.
If Mr. Borden will put the $35,000,000
into ships to be built, named and main-
tained by Canada. The Globe is confi-
dent he will secure an almostunanimous
support in Parliament. To spend that
sum on three "extra" battleships for
Britain on the ground that an emergen-
cy exisis, when not one word in the ad-
miralty memorandum gives warrant for
such an assertion, is to sacrifice the in-
terests of the Canadian and British tax-
payer in the effort to produce harmony
in his discordant following. We shall
be surprised if the Liberal party does
not nail the flag of the Canadian navy
to the masthead and say: ':Thirty-five
millions, or fifty millions if necessary,
but it shall be spent upon ships to be
owned, manned and maintained by the
people of Canada.—Toronto Globe.
A fully -attended and absolutely unani-
mous Liberal caucas was held Friday
morning on the naval question. The
caucas agreed that the admirality
memorandum submitted to Parliament
by Premier Borden yesterday clearly
established what Liberals have always
contended, namely, that there is no
emergency. In this they find full justi-
fication of the principle of a Canadian
naval policy, and they will strenuously
advocate in Parliament this policy of
Canadian -manned and Canadian -owned
and maintained ships. They are pre-
pared to vote at once the full extent of
the figures suggested forthe emergency
contribution, namely, $35,000,000, and
more if necessary, for the construction
and maintainance of Canadian warships
along the Iines of the resolution un-
animously adopted by Parliament in
March, 1909. This the caucas con-
sidered to be the only true and sane
Imperial policy consonant with. Can-
adian pride, Canadian national autono-
my, and permanent Imperial unity.
Three of the most powerful Dread-
noughts that money can buy and science
btild, approximately, thirty-five million
dollars, to be owned by Canada but
maintained and manned by Britain, was
the long deferred "emergency" an-
nouncement made to Parliament Thurs-
day afternoon by Premier Borden under
spectacular circumstances. His care-
fully -prepared speech, read from manu-
script throughout, was heard by pack-
ed galleries, by practically every mem-
ber of the Commons, by their Royal
Highness the Duches of Connaught and
Princess Patricia seated on the floor of
the House, while outside alt the world
listened. The conclusion of his speech
wus marked by great demonstration by
his followers, white, as an evidence of
the desire of both sides of the Douse

A by-law for the purpose of raising a
sum not to exceed the sum of Fif-
teen Thousand Dollars for the pur-
pose of paving and grading a cer-
tain portion of Josephine Street
under the provisions of the Local
Improvement Act.
A pretty wedding took place at the
home of Jacob and Mrs. Cathers, How -
ick township, on Wednesday Nov. 27th,
at noon when their daughter, Miss Mary
was united in marriage with Frederick
J. Lewis of Turnberry. The bride look-
ed charming in a gown of marquisette
cloth trimmed with silk insertion, app-
lique and beaded trimming and wore in
her hair a beautiful pearl bandeau, Rev.
R. S. Lackland, pastor of the Methodist
Whereas it ie expedient to grade that part
of Josephine Street in the Town of Wingham
South of the Grand Trunk Railway Company's
tracks to tits South side of Victoria Street and
pave acme with either Macadam, Cement or
Asphalt.
And whereas it is neces ,ry to borrov a sum
or sums of Fifteen thousand Dollars on the
credit of the 0 .rporseton, for sr.id purpos. a
only and to issue debentures therefor as auth-
orized under the Local Improv.metit Aot.
And whereas the amount of the whole rate•
able property of the Municipality acco•dingto
the last revised assessment roll is $80+,098,
ad whereas the amount of the,existing de-
benture debt of the Corporation (exolusivs of
local improvement debt+ secured by special
rates or assessments) is 8147,268.04, end no pa, t
Of the principal or interest is in arrear.
Therefore the Municipal Council of the Cor-

church at Wroxeter, performed the
ceremony under a beautiful floral arch.
The bridal couple were attended by the
bride's brother, Charles Cathers, and
;Miss Eva McMichael, the latter dressed
in pink satin made a charming flower
girl. Wedding march was played by
Mrs. W. A. Cathers. Bride carried a
boquet of pink and white carnations.
The grooms gift to the bride was a
fur lined coat and to the flower girl he
gave a jewel case. A large number of
useful and costly presents were received
and a cheque from the bride's father.
After a dainty wedding dinner Mr. and
Mrs. Lewis left for Toronto and other
points, the bride travelling in a hand-
some costume of navy blue cloth, cream
silk plush hat with white plume and
pink roses.
The Apple Business.
To the Editor of the TIMES:
I do not know what to think of the
apple business, Mr. T. Moore has not
shipped his apples yet and Mr. Steepe
near Clinton who has rented bis 5 acre
orchard of good quality apples to a
Company who took great care of it and
grew tomatoes in between the trees and
kept it thoroughly tilled and there was
a spleneid crop of fruit, mostly Spies,
and not an apple packed. A lady says I
was driving on the 6th concession and
"assed Mr. Sloan's orchard he packed
1609 barrels of apples and yet there is
many trees loaded with beautiful Spies.
That is 5 miles from Clinton on the
Bayfield Road. How about the people
who are continually telling us the busi-
ness could not be overdone? I am feed-
ing mine to the cattle, a few every day;
it seems to suit them.
Yours truly,
WnrrnonURCH FARMER.
