pue. Mr. Nickle won the city of
Kingston, that had long been Liberal
for Sir Jas. Whitney. Then at the
call of his party, he resigned and won
the constituency for his party, in the
Iast Dominion elections.. He is one of
the biggest men: in the conservative
party in Ontario, R. B. Bennett,
breadth of Canada, These two
men have rendered a great service
to the conservative party by voting
for country and against the degrad-
ing of their party. These men make
worthy leaders of the more progressive
element, which we believe is 90%, of
the conservative party. Since the
daily papers have not publish•

them printed in full in some capacity
or other. Every Conservative, who
has the interests of his party, at heart
should honor the names of Bennett

Children Disappear.
eSpmewhat of a sensation was caused
in. town on Monday, when it was
learned that two of the children of
Mr. John alerkley bad in some manner
disappeared from the home of his
sister, Mrs. R. A. Mosley, where the
children were living, Me. Lugene
Maddigan of town, brother of Mrs.
Merkley, is reported to have induced
the children to go with him to the
park and hence to a neighboring
house where the mother was waiting,
and the mother and children took the
11 o'clock train to Toronto, However
the Toronto authorities were com-
municated with and the children were
taken in charge and placed in a shelt-
er, A preliminary trial was heard in
Toronto on Wednesday morning of
this week. There will no doubt be a
legal battle as to the possession of
the children. This is, we are sorry to
say, evidently an unfortunate mixed
marriage, and it le reported that the
struggle is largely as to Whether the

No Anglo-Saxon country is afflicted
with a more worthless, treacherous,
useless or unfair pressthan is Canada
Our Home,
The speeches of W. F. Nickle, M,P„
and R. 11, B. Bennett, M,P., were the
most important speeches delivered in
the House of Commons this session,
Party organs fail to recognize the
duty they owe to their readers. The
readers of too many Canadian news-
papers gain no clearer idea of these
speeches than they could have gained
if the speeches in question had been
delivered in the Senate halls of the
planet Mars.—[Toronto Telegram.
The Telegram is quite correct.
The speeches of W. F. Nickle, M.
P., Kingston and R. B. Bennet,
DS. P., Calgary were good enough
to have been given in full by our
daily papers, but of course the
Daily Tory papers who are feeding
at the trough could not bring t11em-
eelves to the point where they
would publish anything detrimen-
tal to the hand that feeds them.
Our Daily papers -do not always
give thiols as they are, but merely
things that will best suit their
party's te'fish interest. The man
who would poison the wells and
Spring of the land is justly regard-
ed as a human monster, as an
enemy e•f society, and no punish-
wonld be t'to severe fer him, Is
be not as great a criminal who
would poison and pollute the pub-
lic mind with gross misrepresen-
tations and half truths of the work-
ings on .Parliament Hill. What
Canada needs to -day is a few inde-
pendent fearless dailies that will
paint things as they are. His Em-
inence Cardinal Gibbons once said,
"A viligant and fearless press that
will reflect and create a healthy
public opinion. Such a press guid-
ed by the laws of justice and the
spirit of American institutions, is
the organ and the reflection of na-
tional thought, the outer bulwark
of the rights and liberties of the
citizen against the usurpations of
of authority' and the injustice of
parties, the speediest and most dir-
ect castigator of vice and dishones-
t/. It is the duty of the oitizens
of a free country not only to en-
courage the press, but to cooper-
ate with it; and it is a misfortune
I
for any land when its leading men
ieglect to instruct their country
and act on prablio opinion through
SAD SPECTACLE AT OTTAWA.
This is what. The Evening Telegram,
one of the old feshioned Correct vative
papers in the city of Toronto gays
"Yon might as wall try and
teach the Ten Commaudrnepts
to a rattlesnake as proclaim ideals
in the Parliament of Canada."
A clear-eyed cynic wrote the
foregoing words into the terms of
Iris tribute to a house of Coznrnons
other than the asserriblage address-
ed by W. F. Nickle, M. P., yester-
clay. "He made ratht r a spectacle
of himself," was the reward Mr.
Nickle earned from a Conservative
visitor who does not share the
ideals, admire the policies, or serve
the interests of the Clan Mackenzie.
God help Canada if the old men
who should see visions and the
young men who should dream
dreams are to forever glorify cowar-
dice and despise courage,
Ontario, including T o r o n t o,
seems to be represented at Ottawa
by seventy-two rubber stamps in
the bands of Rt. Hon. R. L. Bor-
den, whose Government seems to
be a rubber stamp in the hands of
Sir William Mackenzie. Allow-
andes should be made for the diffi-
culties that Mr. Borden must face
as trustee for the sad inheritance
bequeathed to this country by the
incompetence of Sir Wilfrid Lauri-
er. The C. N. R. bungle and the
G. T. P. bungle must be straighten-
ed out by beads and hands that
had no leading part in the making
of these bungles. The situation of
the Borden Government is inex-
pressibly dieappointing to Canadi-
ans who rejoiced in the results
that armed Rt. Hon. R. L. Borden
with the power of Ontario's pro-
gressive enthusiasm. The dieap-'
pointment of progressive Canadians
is aggravated by the spectacle that
Ontario Conservatism made of it-
self in its passive approval of Sir
William Mackenzie's attempt to
bludgeon and bulldoze the Par-
liament of Canada. That dieap-
pointment,is still further aggravat-
ed by Ontario's Parliamentary sur-
render to the theory that Sir Wil-
liam Mackenzie is the boss of the
Canadian Parliament and the Bor-
den Government is the puppet of
Sir William Mackenzie.
Anglican S. S. Convention.
The annual meeting of the Ruti-
Deeanal Chapter and Sunday School
Association for the Deanery of Huron
was held on Thursday last in St,
Thomas church, Seafortb. The morn-
ing session was devoted to the meet.
ing of the Chapter, and the afternoon
to the 5. S. Convention, which proved
a very interesting and practical ses-
sion. Besides the usual business tran-
sactions, reports of officers, etc., there
were some very interesting topics dis-
cussed, including the following:—
"Notes from an Inspector's Diary," by
Rev. T. J. Charlton, F. R. A, S., Mit-
chell, S. S. Inspector, Perth Deanery.
"That Sunday Schools do not help the
attendance in Church services," was
explicitly discussed, papers being giv-
en on the eubjeot by Miss Marchand
of Exeter, Mrs. C. M. Walker of
Wingbam and Miss Tye of Goderich.
The points brought out clearly proved
that Sunday Schools no help the at-
tendance at Church services, The
sol ject of "Modern S. S. text books"
or , S S. Leeson Helps of yesterday
compared with those of to day," was
ably handled by Rev; J, C. Potts, M.
A , of Clinton, The next Convention
will be held in Wingham, Officers
elected were—President, Rectdr of St,
Paul's Church, Wingham ; Secretary,
bliss Lizzie Plenty; Sec.-Treas., Rev.
T. H. Brown, Seaforth; Superinten-
dents of the various departments were
re-elected, A Deanery A. y, P. A.

Dean Doherty of Hensel!, Rev. J. B,
Fotheringham of Goderich, S. S. in -
specter for Huron, and Rev. 'T 11.

officers. The delegates were very
hospitably entertained by the Seaforth
ladies, meals being served in the par-
ish hall.

Save The Boy,
1dx. Killeen and his followers are
making a great deal of the above slo-
gan. Any municipality 'can save the
boy' by adopting 1 seal option and any
county in the province can save the
boy by pasting Stott Act. In 1005
theca wet a 2811 liquor licenses in On-
tario. There are now 1000, In nine
years of Whitney rule one half the
bars have been wiped out by the adop-
tion of the above measures, plus the
direct action of Hon.' W, J. Hanna,
Surely to continue the Hanna method
is better than adopting the Rowell
method, for we can only guess at the
effect of buying liquor in shops in-
stead of hotels. Prohibition cannot
be successfully worked out in a muni-
cipality whit:hie hostile to such legis-
lation, and any municipality with the
proper sentiment can become dry by
voting on either of these acts.
Sold Cotton Por Linen.
It was once said by a 'mere man'
that the custom of perforning an
autopsy upon woman had ceased and
in . substitute therefore they- merely
approached the bier and called out
bargains and if a spark of life remain-
ed there was an immediate shuffle.
This was amply proven in this com-
munity when Mr. Dominique Paise of
Stratford arrived in town and began
to pedal his wares which were a great
bargain. He was selling pure linen at
twentyflve cents a yard. and some of
our lady friends bought as much as
forty yards. However it was dis-
covered that Dominique's linen was
merely cotton, and Chief Allen was
conferred with.• The chief on Satur-
day arrested him for selling goods
under false pretenses. He was brought
up the same day and the case was
adjourned until Monday. On Monday
the chief offered no evidence to prose•
cute the charge laid, but laid a new
charge of selling goods without a
hawker's or pedlar's license. An inter•
preter was brought up from Stratford,
as Dominique spoke Italian and did
not understand Esperanto. His Wor-
ship fined him $10 and costs, amount-
ing to $13.25 in all. Dominique
promptly paid the same and immedi-
ately shook the dust of Wingham from
off his shoes.
Oddfellows Attend Church.
The brethern of Maitland No 119 In-
dependent Order of Oddfellows march-

where they attended Divine Service on
Sunday evening. The attendance was
good there being over seventyflve

were visitors from Brussels and
Wroxeter. After the brethern return.
ed to the lodge rooms, a hearty vote
of thanks was extended to the Rev, J.
W. Hibbert, who preached an eloquent,
and inspiring address which breathed
the spirit of fraternity. While th
Rev. gentleman does not belong to the
order, yet
he
belongstn other fratern-
al organizations and has sufficient *of
the milk of human kindness in his soul
that he thoroughly appreciates the
spirit of fraternalism, hence his address
was full of inspiration to the brethern
present. He took as his text, let.'
Samuel, chpt. 20 and 17th verse. The
minister in his introduction gave a
hearty welcome to the Oddfellows be-
cause of the good work in which they
were engaged. He also welcomed
them because they tnet together with
a common teaching viz. the fatherhood
of man, If we believe in the father-
hood of God, we accept God as our
Creator. In the beginning God creat-
ed the heavens and the earth, thus if
we accept him as creator, we reverence
hitt end obey him. We seek to keep
his commands. If we believe in the
fathet hood of God we accept hie love
as revealed in the gift of hie Son, where
in is love,.not that we loved God but
that God loved us, and we reepor,d
with Paul, "The love of Christ re-
straineth us," Believing in the love of
God, we a o c e p t him as our
preserver. Our earthly parents care
for us, does our Heavenly Father do
eta? In bins, we live and move and
have our being, therefore we present
our lives a living sacrifice. The broth-
erhood of man is based upon love and
not mash. Love implies a relation and
the just and undefiled relation is this
to visit the widow and the fatherless
and to keep ourselves unspotted from
the world. ` he story of Jonathan and
David was told to reeeat the spirit of
true brother'heeel, as also the story of
the good 8amariten, and thus three
principles were revealed, 1st., That
true brotherhood recognizes the loan
and not the position. `dad , True

Dr. Doolittle, Toronto, Pres. of the

date, when the local association may
affiliate with the Paovinoial organiza-
