INTE et STll'3G QUESTIONS.
This i, the series of exceedingly in-
teresting end pertinent questions that
Williarlee. el Poor, i .C., M.P.P., ask-
ed Sir J.,*i:es Whitney at the Prrnldfoot
demOnctration iceGoderich, Friday, May
ao, 191:1.
1. Why did the Committee. on Privil-
eges and Dleedor.s refuse to permit an
inveetigation into the circumstances
surloundiug the payment by George C.
Taylor of °+etreell to Ilon. W. J. Hanna?.
Was it because Mr. Taylor was
a:=l:ed ler a t .e t:lie)u:ion of ;1,(1!30.00
and that the . e '.e' was only the first
installment?
t3. IMd air. Taylor (a Conservative in
polities; prier to his contract with the
Government and having an unadjusted
claim over make a contribution to party
furcie
4. Why was the $.:0'(.0) not paid over
to the ''re : urer of the Conservative
Association fer the Province of Ontario?
It is w,-11 nti:l'stood that there is such
an individual whose business it is to look
after such n),ttters.
a. Why, Sir James, when you a ecer-
tion to degenerate into a farce? Was
it because you knew there were facts
that at all hazards the public must not
be allowed to know?
14. Why did you refuse a Royal Com-
mission to investigate the charges?
Was it because you had no confidence in
the judges or because you had more
confidence in being able to control the
Committee and see that just such evi-
dence was put in as you desired? In
view of the fact that the so called in-
vestigation was blocked and was resolv-
ed into a farce, why dil1n't you instead
of accepting the report of the majority
of the Committee and passing the vote
of censure on me, send the charges even
at that late hour, as I requested, to a
Royal Commission for investigation? I
dared you to do so but you were afraid.
The people will ask why you were
afraid. Tile answer is obvious. You
had something to conceal and dared not
let the searchlight in. •
15. T repeat the offer I made in the
House. Appoint a Royal Commission
of judges of the High Court and of your
own choosing. I will present my case
before them. If I fail to establish the
same I will resign my seat and go back
to my constituents for endorsation. If
they fail "to endorse my actions 1 will
forever retire from public life. I dare
you to take this course. If you want to
give a fair deal and act honestly and
decently no other course is open but
from my knowledge of your cowardly
tactics I know you wont do so.

In this early stages kidney troubles
are known by backache and urinary
disorders. Later come dropsy, scone,
rheumatic pains, add perhaps diabetes.
Ilut don't wait for these. Dr. Chase's
tceined that your chief colleague had ae- l:`tlaey-Liver Fitts will help you in a
ir'r. hours. Tame thorough action on
copied Chaney contrary to the rule of it to livor, kidneys a.v
:and haela will clear
the Government, why did you not insist a'x:.y thy pains anti ori:". aria make you
upon it h1 ing returned? wi it dime.
C. Did you, S ir.James, ascertain from
Mr. Hanna that this money was paid to
him in cash in his office in the Parlia-
ment I3uildings where he sits as head of
the Department of the Government
which hae chief control of the morals of
the people of the Province?
7. At your interview with Mr. Hanna
when he admitted the receipt of the
e5t0.00 did you ask him about the other
matters referred to by Mr. Taylor, par-
ticularly the question ,of the coal ten-
ders? If so, what did he say? You did
not explain this in the House or in giv-
ing your evidence. The public is anxi-
ous to know.
8. Why is the money still retained?
Why was it not confiscated by the
Province as money received on another
Occasion was?
9. You know in 1911 that this money
had been improperly received by your
colleague. Why was your first admission
of this wrong doing only made when I
forced your hand in the Legislature?
Was it because you thought that by
such an admission the matter would be
dropped and the whole odium placed on
the shoulders of Mr. Hanna? Why did
you not let him explain?
10. Was it under your instructions
that your Counsel had the evidence in
connection with the coal tenders and it will not recover perhaps before all is
other matters ruled out? Remember lost. The challenge of the Senate ought,
therefore, to be instantly accepted and
a general election announced. To:delay
or vacillate, where the future of man-
kind is at stake, will expose Mr. Borden
to the reciminations of history, if his-
tory itself will not be snuffed out. It
will be said that he gave up Imperial
and world statesmanship to hang on to
office a little while in Bytown, or that
he sought to rule a democracy arbitrar-
ily and at the first check abandoned his
cause because he feared defeat.
PREMIER BORDENSHOULD ACCEPT
THE CHALLENGE.
(Weekly Sun)
The Senste'sdisposition of the Naval
13111 tests the sincerity of Mr. Borden's
belief in the emergency and it tests the
sincerity of all those who have bean
professing their readiness to spend the
e last dropof
last dollar
and shed the
blood for the Empire. It is now plain
that nothing can be done until the
matter has been submitted, in the words
of the Senate, to the judgement of the
country. To bring the Naval Bill for-
ward again at the next session, or the
next, or the next, will, it may be as-
sumed, only result in a repetition of the
Senate's demand for a reference to the
people. That might delay the beginning
of preparations for participation in the
defence of the Empire on £he high seas
for five or six years, and the realization
of effective aid for a quarter of a cen-
tury. If there is such ariernergency as
Mr. Borden has alleged as the base of
his proposal of tribute, the Empire may
in the meantime be overwhelmed and
the trade routes obstructed, Civiliz-
ation may be dealt a blow from which
you had promised a full investigation
and yet your counsel took this course.
Why did you permit it? Was it because
you and Mr. Hanna were afraid of the
evidence which would be given? Your
attitude is incapable of any other con-
struction.
11. Having promised a full and open
investigation which, for reasons best
known to yourself, was not permitted,
do you think it was either fair or manly
on your part or on that of your counsel
and followers to abuse me as you did?
Is that your conception of British fair
play? Do you think I got a fair deal
either in the Public Accounts or the
Privileges and Elections Committee?
You know I did not. Why didn't you
see that I did?
12. Was it agreed in caucus before
the Committee on Privileges and Elec-
tions as a Committee met, that Mr.
Ferguson should be appointed Chair-
man? Why was he appointed? Was it
because of his ability to exclude evi-
dence as shown by his Actions in the
Public Accounts Committee?
13. Why did you allow the investiga-

Headache is not a disease in itself, but
is often a source of great suffering, and its
presence is likely symptomatic of some
disease lurking in the system.
To get rid of the headache, and thus
prevent more serious troubles, it is

system of all waste and poisonous matter,
and keep the bowels well open, the

LOCAL NEWS.
Excavation for Dr. Macdonald's block
of stnree vias c,emmencetl on Monday
laG', a.,cl th r work is being pushed along
rapidly,
On Tio. •il•',' of Inst. wpelc the Salva-
tion Army e�letirated the seventh anni-
versary of the establishment of the
Army in town. The meeting in the
evening was pretty well attended.
Messrs R. C. Sperling ana W. F.
Brocliknshire are in Goderich this week
attending the meeting of the County
Council,
4 Messrs. 5. Weflwood and J. C. Currie
shipped a carload of sheep to Winnipeg
on Tuesday. Mr.Wellwood went through
with them.
The town hand favoured the citizens
with a number of choice selections on
Saturday evening last. They intend
playing in the open air each Saturday
evening, weather permitting. The band
is making good progress and are entitl-
ed to the encouragement of our towns-
people.
Sometime during Tuesday night some
party or parties secured an entrance to
the D insley House by boring a number
of holes through the bar -room door and
An editorial appeared in a recent is-
sue of a Sutherland, Sask., paper, con-
taining some good homely advice on the
question of the general public buying at
home and cutting out the mail order
house. It is worth reproduction here:
"If everybody wets loyal to the home
town there would be no hard times.
Let us look at the circulation of money.
A storekeeper gets $15 for goods; he
sends $10 to the wholesale dealer to pay
for the goods. Ile takes the $5 and pays
his meat bill, the bu her takes it and
and pays his coal bill; the coal dealer
pays it for board. The keeper of the
boarding house take4it and buys $2.50
of meat and $2.50 of yierchandise. This
is giving a short circulation of money.
We might go on to figure it out till most
every dealer In town, would have a por-
tion of this money, but the point is that
just as soon as one sends a part of the
money in circulation opt of town then
every one suffers by that action, and he
then wonders what •makes collections
poor."
Retailers should all do their part to
keep the money at home by buying
everything possible from their fellow
merchants. They can, too, enlist the
services of the local press in showing
the publie by such an illustration as ap-
pears above what they lose in dealing
without of town stores. Usually when
a person is trade to,see the injury done
the community by purchasing from mail
Order houses, he is easily won over as
good booster fel' hit heme town.
Some people atem to get a idt of
in ke ing others from enjoymentth om

joying themselves.

Wm. Pritchard, Lumber Inspector,
Lumsden Mills, Ont., "and used Dr.

INFOOLABLE FATHER.
I used to do some little tricks my father
disapproved; •
Would play with tools he'd put in place
and said should not be moved;
Go fishing when he pointed out some
weeds among the corn -
Do all the bad things boys have done
since first a boy was born;
I never stopped to figure that he had a
boyhood too -
1 used to think I'd fool my dad, but now
I know he knew.
He knew that when his back was turned,
I'd work a little less
Than when he stayed about me with
his rigid watchfulness;
He knew his orders roused in me a little
streak of mule -
Was he not once as young as I and
quite as big a fool?
And so, although he held his peace this
thing I say is true,
I used to think I fooled my dad but now
I know he knew.
Now I've some chicks who don't agree
with all their father's laws.
This disobeying's not the joke I once
believed it was.
We see their rattle-brained mistakes
through years of riper years -
The wisdom -crop within those eyes is
watered oft with tears.
Some day, whenpuzzling o'er their
own they'll sigh and t'will be
true -
We used to think wea fooled our dad
but now we know 'he knew.
Crimes of the Fly.

the New York World, charged the
further crime of beim an active agent

Association Dr. E. W. Saunders of St.
Louis has announced that by expert*
melts he is convinced of the direct
agency of the fly in .propagating the
disease. 'li
What has beenaecofnplished in check-
ing yellow fever and malaria by the
elimination of the mosquito is a matter

ledge. But the systematic flight against

other half -way Irectioris it hes been
almost overlooked by the average hedge -
holder.
All the while' the fly, has been the
most energetic carrier Of typhoid and
gastro- enteric diseases. The rise in
mortality from these causes has been
plainly established in its relation to the
fly -breeding season.
It is not by fly -swatting campaigns
that effective prevention can be secured,
but by the removal of filth and waste
and offensive material in which flies
breed and by the protection of food
where it is offered for sale or kept for
use. This, is the real reason for the
spring clean-up undertaken by the city
officials and the warning notices issued
by the Health Department to shop-
keepers
The flight against the fly is a flight
against typhoid, infantile paralysis
and many other deadly diseases.
The courts would be in a dreadful fix
if there were no precedents to fall back
on.

HAD READ THE CONSTITUTION.
And He Found a Grammatigai Flaw in
Its First $entence.
Au error, so patent as to be termed
glaring, has existed in the very first/
sentence of the constitution of tb4#
United States since its adoption. fwd
tested, as far as can be ascertained, by
lawyers or rhetoricians. Strange to
say, the error was only exposed by a r `'
foreigner applying for citizenship.
A young German. who five years
ago had taken out his "first papers"
-that is, declared his intention to 'be-
come ►tn American citizen -was re!
cently taking out his "final papers"
a court of the District. One of the Q - -'
sandal steps in this procedure is the
examination of the applicant by the
Judge as to his knowledge of the con-
.stitutiou. The form of the question is,
by immemorial custom. as follows:
"I-Iave you read the constitution o['
the United States. and, if so, do yoU,
understand it?"
In this instance the young German.
to the astonishment of the. examining
judge, replied: 'ti
"Yea. your honor, and 1 think the
teen wtw wrote it dict not know how
to write c'orrec't English. The very
first seats>ure is defective."
"What do you mean?" queried the
Judge. bewildered by this foreign at-
tuck upon the bnisvartc of our liberties.
"Why," replied the German. "the
first sentence says: 'We, the people ot;
the United States, in order to form :t
wore perfect Union.' Now, according
to the Best or, indeed, any authority,
the, *cord 'perfect' means something
that is by: its very nature superlative;
It cannot be improved upon. Flow,
then. ('0111(1 the people of the United
States form ti more perfect Union? 1t
it was perfect before they could add
nothing to increase its perfection. It
might be tussle more effective or more
binding. but c'et•tainly not more per,
feet!"
The young German got his papers
without more ado. t€'asltingtou Star..

OUR PAPER MONEY.
It Wears Out Quickly and Is Gradually
Increasing In Volume,
The average lifetime of the different
denominations of United States paper
Currency differs considerably, that of
the one dollar silver certitieate, for
Instance, being a trifle Over one year:
the five dollar silver certificate, 1.9
years; the ten doliar gold certit atea
1.GS years; twenty dollar gold ser
cites, 1.9 years, etc.
The number ot pieces of United
States paper currency in circulation is
gradually increasing and numbered
327.329,159 on .June 30, 1912. There
were 273.420,330 pieces of United
States currency redeemed during the
same period, which exceeded by 6.218,-
415 the number of pieces issued the
preceding year.
The increasing growth in redemp-
tions is dne primarily to the growth in
business activities, the oil bllei ty given
to uncleanliness and alleged insanitli
tion of soiled notes and the eonsegtte "•
detunnd for cleaner money, the grow-
ing prnctiee of payment of wages in
factories. shops, etc.• weekly and bi-
weekly, as compared- with monthly.
and growing popularity of p(tper mon-
ey in sections where silver was for-
merly in the greatest demand. -Leslie's

robbery impossible the nine companies
have built a car that Is substantially

lights that show every Inch of space
under, over, alongside and on each
end of the body, and it Is bullet and

guard is locked up, in the ear with

Floating Palace of a Prince.
The Prince of Agra bas had con-
structed a floating palace. , It is of
two stories, each very high, and the
rooms are grand. vaulted chambers,
furnished in the most gorgeous' orien-
tal manner. All the chairs have gold-
en arms, with precious stones set in
the back, and the ceilings are tinted to
represent the sicy, silver stars appear-
ing
ppearing here' and there on the dark blue
background. The palace is made of
wood and 'floats with ease on the
Jumna Neer. Here the prince and his
royal retinue betake themselves an
sultry days. and the palace- mores on
the water to soft, sweet music, while
the royal guests sip cooling beverages;
