In selecting a candidate on Thursday at Walkerton to carry the Liberal standard in this historic riding an open challenge was made to the Government of Canada to test the opin- ion of the electors of South Bruce on important issues involved in its naval policy by forthwith proceeding with the election of a representative for this rid- ing. The Liberals have got quickly in- to line. Mr. R. E, Truax, former Lib- eral candidate, was again chosen, and this time by a convention that has not been equalled in enthusiasm and num- bers since the late Hon. Edward Blake the Nestor of Canadian Liberalism; was a candidate in 1878, There were dele- gates frbm every polling subdivision in the riding, and as many alternates to spare. A healthy condition was mani- fested in the fact that though a dozen names were submitted on the nominat- i ng ballet, each was willing rather to s tep aside and by concerted effort make victory certain. The nomination was followed with a stirring speech by Mr. Hugh Guthrie, K.C., M.P., who in a forceful and convincing way laid bare the machinations of the Conservative - Nationalist coalitions at Ottawa, and the volte face of Dir. Bordon on the naval question, and unmasked the sub- terfuges that were being attempted to usurp the power and privilege of Parli- ament and centralize authority in an autocratic Executive. Speeches were also delivered by by J. G. Aneerson, M. P. P. for South Bruce and Wm. McDon- ald M. P. P. for Centre Bruce. —Monday was the hottest June day in Toronto in twelve years and the sec- ondhottest June day on record. —The treat of the season.

A meeting of the Women's Institute of Wingham was held on Thursday, June 12th, in the Council Chamber, at which a sale of work and home-made cooking took place and was veily suc- cessful. Miss Gilholm, of Guelph, their summer delegate, addressed the meet- ing and gave a most excellent talk on "Opportunities of Women in Canada,' to which all present listened with much pleasure. This Society has grown in a few years from a membership of ten to 80,1r00,000. Only a few years ago ten noble women conceived the idea of forming a society to be known as the " Women's Institute" for the purpose of raising the moral standard of women throughout the world with the Golden Rule for their motto. To -day it is or - g anized in twenty-three countries and has the encourageing membership above (mentioned. In Canada at the present time there is a membership of 23,000. It is non-political and non -de- nominational and believes that more real good can be done by the power of personal influence than by the power of money.
