MONEY IS NEEDED THE CONSERVATIVES AND LABOR
COMPENSATION ACT
(Brantford Expositor)
The Expositor has frequently pointed
out, by giving chapter and verse, sem
of the achieveinenls cif Liberalisuh fo
Labor in the Mother Country in th
Dominionni Parliament, and in the Ontar
io Legislature. So far as the latter bod
is concerned,. the reply of the Conser-
vatives is to point to the Workmen's
Compensation Act, But even this mea-
sure is agitation, and the government
is entitled to credit for it.
To begin will, the first legislatiui, of
this kind emanated from a Liberal gov-
ernment, In 1885 Sir Oliver Mowat,
keeping abreast with the 'progressive
spirit of the age, secured the enactment
in this province of a Workmen's Com-
pensation Act, modelled after the then
British legislation, and this act, with
certain anlendments•front time to time
passed, was the law in force, until
lately: This act substantially enlarged
the rights of employes to recover for
injuries sustained. There were, how-
ever, defects in it. It was found by
experience to be applicable in only 20
per cent, of the total number of cases,
and also ,to be too expensive in admin-
istration.
The application of new principles
was needed; and the recognition of this
fact Ind to important changes being
made in the British act in 1906, British
Columbia adopted the principle of the
British act in 1903, Alberta in 1908,
Quebec in 1909, Manitoba in 1910,
Nova Scotia in 1910, and Saskatchewan
in 1911. New South Wales adopted
the principle of the British act in 1900,
South Australia the same year, Western
Australia in 1902, Queensland in 1905,
New Zealand in 1900, Cape Colony in
1905, and the Transvaal in 1907. Ger-
many was one of the pioneers in this
legislation, and its act in 1884, with
subsequent amendments, is one of the
most complete. Austria adopted such
an act shortly after, Norway in 1895,
France in 1898, Spain in 1900. Holland
in 1901. Belgium in 1903, Italy in 1903
and Russian in 1908, But Ontario
slept on.
The workingmen of this province had
for years been urging a modern Com -
r> pensation act modelled after the. Bri-
tish Act, and a bill in the year 1910
was introduced by a Liberal member,
following the lines of the British act,
but intended to meet conditions in Ona-
ario. This bill was withdrawn on the,
assurance of Sir James Whitney that a
colnnlissioner would be appointed.
In the year 1911 the State of Wash-
ington brought into force a W'orking-
men's'.:ornpensation Act containing the
principles of the collective liability of
• the •German act, but administered by
the government, whereas in Germany
it is adrninistered by associations re-
presenting employers, etc. When the
Laborites Cf Ontario carne to present
their case to the commissioner In 1911,
for the early part of 1912, they ask-,
ed for a bill modelled along tlae lines
of the English act, with compulsory
state insurance as contained in the
Washington act. In the provincial
general election of 1911' :the :Lib-
eral platform contained the follow:
Ng plank:
"We promise the passage of a
measure to provide for -compensation
of worknhren injured in our • indus-
tries, and to their dependents when
such injuries result in death, mod
elled after the,. recent legislation
Great Britain, and to ensure in all
cases the payment 9f ,such compen-
sation,"
The last claiae, namely, `.'tra - el. -
sure tite'.payment of such coulpeinsa-
tton" was, we are assured, added by
Mr:. Rowell to specifically meet the
British act developed under tn" in.
dividual liability system, and .0'1-

tains in it the promise of a govern-
ment guarantee of payment of com-
pensation to the workers of the pro-
vince. This was the first specific
public declaration, of a political lea-
der in this province in favor of the
collective system of liability admin-
istered by the state. This declaration
of policy was made by Mr. Rowell
before Sir William Meredith had
drafted his act or reached any fixed
conclusions in the matter, and was
made when the government was ab-
solutely silent as to what its policy
would be: Sir William Meredith's bill
adopts the principle of the Washing-
ton bill ,which is an adaption of the
German act, in providing for a col-
lective system of insurance, adminis-
tered by the state. but it adopts the
principle of the British bill, and not
the Washington bill, when it comes
to the principle of compensation. In
other words, the principle of the
Meredith •act is the principle asked
for by the Labor then, and the prin-
ciple incorporated in the Liberal
r li::y of 1911 more felly elaborated
end explained by Mr Rowell's ad-
dress 41t Woodstock in 1911.
There is nothing in the whole
-tory .of the Meredith act to show
that any such measure was thought
of by any tneiitber of the Whitney
government, or approved of by any
•of Its supporters, until the demands

Acres of Flowers Grown for Fodder in
Huron County and Experiment Seems
to be Promising One. Sunflowers
as Ensilage Have Many Advantages.
"Ensilage from sunflowers," it soun-
ds rather like a fairy tale to begin with,
but the possibilties of such a thing have
been proven to be decidedly attractive
and two farmers of the County of Bur -
on have practical experience in the
matter as the result of having grown
five acres each of sunflowers, cut it
and put it In the silo, in contparsion
with corn in the matter of weight of
ensilage to the acre it has been a gond
venture, and it is just possible that
growing sunflowers by the acre may not
be uncommonin the near future.
Making ensilage from sunflowers Is
not an entirely new venture, but has
not been tried out in Ontario farms. A
little plot at the 0. A. C. Is about tl,e
only other acreage of sunflowers from
which information a5 to vabte as animal
food has beeli available In Alberta, on
the outer stand, extensive experiments
Lave been carried nut. Results so far
teem to prove that sunflowers chopped
up and stored in a slid form a food
quite as grand as corn, It .seems to have
the same effect In feeding dairy cows as
corn, and prompts a gond flow of milia.

I' Canada's future is bound up in its
export trade and depends much upon
Merchant Marine. It is vitally neces-
sary that the Dominion should provide
qualified sailors. The Navy League of
':,.nada is giving the younger genera-
tion of Canadians the opportunity for
free training in seamanship, and busi-
ness sten are agreed that the value of
this work cannot he .over estimated,
' The success of the Boy's Naval Bri-
gades hangs on the generosity of pub-
Ite support. It is important to every
Canadian that this movement should
not be handicapped by lack of funds,
' Public spirited citizens are called upon
for a generous response to the Navy
League appeal through the Nelson Day
Campaign. The big drive will cover
three days commencing October 21,
In addition to the demands of the
Naval Brigades the Navy League has to
finance its Sailors hones and Institutes

ed through the Nelson Day Cr:npaign
wilt be spent in Canada.
ALL SUMMER
COMPLAINTS
SUCH AS
Diarrhoea, Dysentery, Colic,
Cholera, Cholera Morbus,
Cholera Infarstum, etc.,
ARE DANGEROUS.
During the hot weather the bowels
neem to be more susceptible to disease
than at any other time of the year.
The holiday season is on; you go
travelling and change your diet and
drinking water; catch cold at every change
in the weather; eat unripe fruit, etc.,
which causes the bowels to become
loosened up. To get relief from these
conditions, you must take something to'
relieve those awful cramps in the etomacb;
those awful pains in the bowels; in fact
something that will in a natural and
effective• way stop' the fluxes . of the
bowels as quickly as possible, and at
the same time not leave them in a
constipated condition.

the ground the stocks were pretty
woody, but they cut nicely a foot from
the ground.
The Crop was cut i11 exactly the 6a111e
way as corn and put into the silo. A
conversion of tife amount from five
acres seems to show that corn is the
better drop, but perhaps not se much

15 feet frrinl the ton,
The sunflower fodder will be fel

is losing nothir5 by substituting the
Sunflowers for the corn as long as the

to be doflig..
' The Brantford Expositor nils always
been it true friend of labor and for
Many years has supported measures in
Ns behalf, Its opinion is therefore
worthy of being heeded. In a recent
issue it gave the following distinctively

It adds that during the Liberal regime
in Ontario a small volume of useful
Labor legislation was passed, and when
a change of government took place,
and changing conditions demanded that
further advances he made, the Liberals
advocated these things in the House
and went on record with their votes,
while the 'Conservatives Apposed these
things and also went on record with
their votes.
OWING OURSELVES
It is estimated by Sir George Paish,
the eminent economist, that interest-
bearing foreign securities held by Great
Britain make a total of £5,000,000,000,
The British securities held abroad do
not exceed £1,500, 000, 000, There is
a favorable balance, after allowing for
all doubtful and Russian debts, of about
£3,000,000,000, At an average rate of
only 4 per cent. This means an annual
income to Great Britain from this sour-
ce alone of £120,000,000, No one can
calculate the full effect of such a circul-
ating asset to the people and Govern-
ment of Great Britain,
Up to this year the Goverment of
Canada had sold Victory Bonds amoun-
ting to more than $1,200,000,000 to
the'Canadiaan people. The Loan now
being floated will add materially to the
total, 1f 81,700,000,000 be considered
as the final outstanding war securities,
at 5 % per cent, the total payment to
Canadian Bondholders will reach 193,-
000,000, a year.
Consider the business advantage
which must come from such a circulat-
ing and recurring asset. The business
created by'such a free movement of
money will make up many times for the
excess taxation required to meet the
interest payments. To that extent,at
least a "thundering big" public heist '
has advantages, when it is owing to the
citizens of the country. if our War Loan
securities were held abroad, i1e interest
would he a severe drain on the coun-'
try. That . is the economic reason for
popular Government loans,

PAINFUL NEURALGIA a FEW BOND BUYERS
Ia Caused by Thin, Watery Blood and
Cured by Enriching the Blood.
Most people think of neuralgia as
a pain in the head or in the face, but
neuralgia may affect any !nerve in the
body. Different names are given to.
it when it affects certain nerves. Thus
neuralgia of the sciatic nerve is call-
ed sciatica, but the character of the
pain and the nature of the disease
are the same. The cause being the
sante, the cure to be effective must
be the same. The pain in neuralgia
is caused by starved nerves. The
blood which carsties nourishment to
the nerves has become thin and im-
pure and no longer does so, and the
pain you feel is the cry of the nerves
for their natural -food. You may
ease the paints of neuralgia with hot
applications, but you can only cure
the trouble by enriching and purifying
the blood. For this purpose we know
of no medicine that can equal
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, These
pills actually make new, rich blood
and thus act as the most efficient of
nerve tonics. If you are suffering from
this most dreaded of troubes, or any
forst of nerve trouble, give these
pills a fair trial, and see how speedily
you will be restored to good health.
You can get Dr. Williams' Pink Pills
from any medicine dealer, or by mail
at 50 cents a box or six boxes for 12.50
from The Dr. Williams Medicine Co.,
Brockville, Ont.

AFFECTED BY TAX
IIt is Interest will be Taxed Not The
Principal.
There is a general impression abroad
that the total amount of money invest-
ed by any one subscriber in the Vic-
tory Loan 1919 will be subject to tax-
ation. This impresson Is erroneous.
It will be the interest from the invest-
ment that will be taxed, not the prin-
cipal invested.
As a matter of fact very few investors
in the new loan will be brought within
the scope of the Income War Act by
reason of investments in Victory Bonds.
With small estates and investors the
law does not become effective under
$2,000 in the case of married persons
or persons with dependents, and 1,1000
in the case of married persons without
dependents, Municipalities and frater-
nal societies will not be subject to tax-
ation in their Investments in the loan
at all. The interest from the bonds will
not be more taxable than ordinary in-
come, subject to the general law of the
land.'
CONSERVATIVES IN DISSOLUTION
(Toronto Globe.)
"As a Government we ask for pub-
lic support on our 04511 record," said
Sir William Hearst in his election
manifesto, yet their record not only
fails to appeal to the public, but can -
hold the support of their own fol-
lowers in the Legislature. Almost
daily a Conservative member announ-
ces that he will not seek renomination.,
or else is repudiated by his own nomi-
ating convention. These members are
well acquainted with public opinion ha
their constituencies, The "Seven
sleepers" may have a rude awakening,
