Finding of Coroner's Jury at
Wingham.

coroner's 'inquest into the death of Wil-
.lians Blachyord was resumed today.
Coroner Dr, Redmond, of Wingham,

ing in health until Friday,,when he was

The jury brought in a verdict of
death from acute peritonitis, adding
that in 'their opinion proper medical
aid was not called in time, but attach-
ing no blame to anyone for the un-

The
National Crisis
"My appeal is to the whole people; to
emery man and woman who wants to do
right by this country; to everyone who
breathes the spirit of our fathers who
founded this British Dominion."
—ARTHUR MEIGHEN
THE Election to be held December 6th
will be the most momentous in
Canadian history ; for as men and
women vote will depend the economic
stability, the political stability and,
indeed, the national stability of this
country.
Today we find group striving against group,
class against class, the industrial and financial
structure of the country assailed by false and
unsound doctrines and theories, while o u r
great neighbour to the south has adopted a
trade exclusion policy directed against Canada's
vast agricultural interests.
1
EFhe currencies of nearly every country in the,world
are depreciated. The Canadian dollar in the United
States is subject to a heavy discount causing a loss
of over one hundred million dollars in exchange
annually.
Europe is overwhelmed with war debts -unemploy-
ment is acute — and the restoration to pre -wall
conditions is slow,
While Canada is in a much more favorable condition
than many countries, yet there is evidence of stag-
nation, instability, unemployment and lack of con-
fidence.
Taxes are heavy because of the country's a oras in
the Great War, but . have become burdenjome on
account of the misconceived policies and blunders
of Governments that directed Canada's affairs prior,
to 1911.
These conditions are largely the direct aftermath of
the war, but they must be dealt with fearlessly and
ioonstructively. This is no time -to consider experi-
mental
xperimental changes, or the theories 'of visionaries.
This 1s no time for. Crete and his Free Trade policy.
This is no time 'for King and his wobbling "charted"
policies, varying with each provincial boundary.
it is the time to' cling to orderly, stable Government
in the interest of all the people; to be guided by the
experience of the past, proceeding upon lines that
have been proven sound.
It is the time to place the destinies of Canada again
in the hand,, Is a,,Goverprn t led bye „®slteg coura-
geous 6anadian who has safely brought e `countfy
through the trying years of reconstruction, and upon
whom we can rely to retain and initiate policies in
the interest, not of a group or 'class but (if all the
people. •
It is the time to 'suppol't Arthur, 1Vleighen and his
Candidates.
