Pivacs gnwARt) ISLAM) set the pace for the coming elections last week wheu the Liberals won by a vote of 26 to -3o. The Grits say they will duplicate this line of action in the sister Provinces. Let us see, where was it the wise men came from ?, Tits Pose Telephones only rang about 200 times tor enquiries "Did I pass the Entrance?" If exatniners thought of the nervous strain to many a home circle over this momentous question they would sit up at nights to get re- port ready. NOMINATING Conventions are giving ample opportunity for the remark "At the earnest solicitation of many friends I have at last consented to yield to their pressure." The "squeeze" often comes later also. GUELPH Mercury works of a fish story that scales well. Here it is :—Some girt in Maine, caught a lobster 3 feet long and weighing r5 pounds. That's noth- ing ; lots of the girls at the Summer re- sorts catch tbem 6 feet long, and weigh- ing close to 200 pounds, which they land without any assistance whatever. SATURDAY Night, the Toronto journal that is ever ready to stick pins into the Methodists, had to climb down from its nagging perch and apologise to Rev. Earnest Thomas rather than attempt to back up their blackmail regarding bim. They will realize be is no doubting Thomas who will submit to none of their mudslinging tactics, "HAPPY to meet, sorry to part, hoping to meet again" is the sentiment of many a home in Brussels and locality as it re- lates to the Old Boys' Re -union, We many we would have been delighted to have welcomed but scores of the absentees were talked about and our good wishes go to thorn all. Especially do we send kindly greetings to tbe elderly folk and those unable to come on account of illness or affliction in their homes. LAST week a Toronto woman was ar- rested because she and her parrot were telling the fortunes of anxious damsels, for filthy lucre of course. An owl might make a better job of it if better hours are not kept by said anxious ones as to who their fate will be. Grandma's courtship days are not the pattern from which the modern maiden fasbions her program, Ir is up to every man and woman who is a friend to the youth of Canada to put a well pronounced kink into John Barleycorn's business by marking 4 No's on their Referendum ballot. The history of the liquor trade is one Tong story of headaches and heartaches, los- ses and crosses, blackness, disaster and death. Read the record of improve- ments where booze is killed and no sane person will ever vote for its return. H, B. Moaexv, M. P. for North Perth is being mentioned for Secretary of State in a proposed shake-up of port- folios in tbe Dominion Cabinet, There is one thing certain about H. B, nobody would have any doubt that he was a doubly plated, triple rivetted Tory and be has as much ability as the average minister who very frequently permits his deputy to do the lion's share of the work. It's hardly worth Mr. Morphy's while to accept now when a general elec- tion will be on so shortly, after which he may have to sit on the left, if fortunate enough to have the electors pin on M. P. for another term, DoMINrON Liberal Convention will meet in Ottawa next Tuesday, Wednes- day and Thursday. Whose your chose for coming Premier ? At present we lean toward Hon. Mr, Fielding, He's a clean banded, clear headed and compete ent man with a broad experience in public affairs that would stand him in good stead in the onerous duties of his office. A big 1050 is wanted and one broadminded enough to view the needs of the Dominion xatber nattering to party exigencies, He would make a Splendid successor to the late Sir Wil- frid Laurier and would well sustain the good name of Canada's Premier on both side of the political fence during the past so years. 6 hoX a GY'Q cerieg Ornemee flour Ora ad Shorn I++ 11ANo Eads of all Hinds, also salt 1'h„„e hi el 27 W.

There is no auto in the Empire better deserves reeognitien front both King and country, He assuredly has won his spurs and .vtthout the frills and flum- mery of some who think they are de- serving. We are glad be refused tin pot titles and long tails to his kite but the Nation owes it to him to show ap- preciation of his practical and most capable management of public affairs during the most trying period of the Empire's history, Hr's au example worthy of close imitation by every man who assays to leadership in any realm. A more suicidal policy could not well be adopted by the Hearst Governnleut, in our judgment than placing the Refer- endum vote and a Provincial election nn same date, No Temperance worker ever asked for such a ballot as they will be asked to vote upon as it is unfair and complicated. What the folk did want was a straight chance to have the elec- tors say whether they wished the grog business wiped out of existence forever, We pat Uncle Sam on the back over the way he deals with the liquor question. Our Governments appear to always leave our legislation with a siring on it. Lacking definiteness is the great bane of many laws and regulations, People don't know where they are at and we guess neither do the lawmakers.

Trick or exhibition flying over residence areas is absolutely prohibited, as is also such flying at regattas or other public assenhblys, except where specially ar- ranged for by the promoters. Dangerous low flying is forbidden everywhere and any flying over cities or towns must be at a height which permits the machine to land outside in the event of engine failure. Noth- ing dangerous must be dropped under any circumstances from a flying ma• chine, The penalties provided are six months imprisonment or a fine of $1,000, or both, and not only the pilot, but the owner of the machine, is lia- ble. The air board has under considera- Hon a full code of regulations relating to alt navigation, but does not purpose to recommend these for adoption until a technical administrative staff has been secured. Notices will he given within a few days of the positions to be filled. The appointments will be made with the tasslstance of the civil commission. # 11 M N A k fi SO E1 e 11 4 �gr:rl Aritily ;; -1.'TEt`: s HON.

NEXT WAR LOAN MAY BE TAXED Regarded as Profitable the Bonds Will Be Hit by the Income Tax Ottawa, July 16.—Preliminary pre- partations for the Dominion loan which is to he floated in the fall, are under 155). Nov. that the war is over, and fin- ancial conditions are more normal, it is regarded as probable that the loan will not be tax-exempt, as was its war time predecessors. Should the Government decide to follow this course, there is little doubt that the rate of interest yield will be made quite attractive, its compared with the rate al which Victory Bonds can now be Nought in the open Market. The tax exemption feature has added materially to the value of pre- vious issues, and was, it is believed, the means sir attracting a much larger t'itlume of subscriptions than would have been otherwise obtained. During the last two years of war, for instance securities of Great Britain, France, and other countries could be bought in New York to yield seven and eight per cent. The terms of the new loan and getting the organization together for staking it a success will be one of the first problems to be taken up be the New :Minister of Finance when he is appointed, STRIKES DISRUPTING BUSINESS (Bradstreets Reports) Canada has lost millions of dollars and the cost of living has been in- creased during the past two months through labor trouble, a great deal of which was believed to be of Bol- sheviki origin and is now proven to have received financial aid from sources that would undermine the very foundations of the country. For many months the police departments all ever the Dominion, and especial- ly in •Toronto, have exerted great ef- forts to keep down the Bolsheviki element. A detective employed in this capacity was also one of the big duringthe unlit upaliens mesa in rounding war. To use this detective's words, "The city of Toronto is a regular hive of Bolshevism and the task of handling this element is many times harder than rounding up the worst of aliens during war time." This un- savory clique cost Winnipeg alone more money, time, and comfort than can be restored in months of general prosperity. Its trust at Toronto in calling a general strike a few weeks ago would have wrought havoc had the majority of this city's union men not recognized the undercurrent of desruction. The scheme was subtle in the extreme, taking advantage of the difficulties confroned by the working men in their endeavor to cope with the increasing cost of ac- tual necessities of life, This battle is not over by any means, probably by the time the real leaders have hoisted their white flag 'T 3 t tau, ant ,;Dolts ttnikruttzsz `;1101't. 1t,,I1C: --1 41+ -bo I” we, le v, it itel.tlnt l•ty heti 1 lids;. .1,1 I, ,.. t r .1,0„:,„006c,000,acl000000it,6.:00000 1.4.1 c svhil 11 11 :I. t I.1li: i::, , , , ti 11 11 o e'xlx:ricut is o,:,! l,tolu, nt y. u Write or all Q i 0 MERCURY MILLS Lil••MITED i Hamilton - Ontario I: a few more million dollars will have been torn from the country and the people. The cost does not stop with the stere loss of wages during the ' strikes, but throws industries out of gear which means a loss greater than may -appear at first glance. The strikes are started through the cost of living, but when industries cease the cost ce living grows faster than in tinter of war, Production will re- duce the distress of the working man quicker than anytime else, A SIMPLE N p • Wf Iii' :yuflt:r with the intense heat of the wood fire when you can links, Li.ltilt :11111111111+ With New Perfection Coal Oil Stove Ni.:w Perfection Stove (3 burners) $521.50 C"1111))(1-(! with 0vt'n o $28.00 • • • fir c •I I ENFRYN • • ••OM•s6,A U8.05Y>••••e'Oh4 •-• 9A • • 0 O e • 0 H.

These strikes are nothing less than scandalous, and perhaps some time there will be ways and means where- by the general public will not be in- convenienced and industry disrupted in this unnecessary waste, The strike of the Toronto Railway employes, for instance does not interfere with the men and company alone, but with practically every mill, factory and store in the whole city, When Canada borrowing in Lon- don is recommenced and the men with funds to place in sound securi- ties are approached one of their first quesions will be "how about your strikes?" it's a mighty poor adver- tisement for the Dominion and a miserable recommendation for the people to be forced to admit that a fete Bolsheviki can not be thrown out and labor disputes settled with- out the whole country being thrust into jeopardy.
