DOES IT PAY?
Does it pay to he a rabid politician?
If so, in what way ? Perhaps you
shouted yourself hoarse over the elec-
tion of your candidate in the last elec.
tinn. Said candidate has probably
never in anyway or manner acknow-
ledged vou since his election, He
doesn't care a fig for you, your family
or your particular personal interests
He wouldn't go across the street to
shake hands with you. You are no
more in his mind after election than a
thousand or two other electors. Does
he consult you about any public clues -
tions or endeavor to serve your inter•
este in any way ? No. He follows
his leader in the House, He dare not
vote on his convictions, but his leader
pulls the string and he jumps, no mat.
ter what he believes in his inner soul,
He is a slave to party—and so are you
more than likely. Politica has become
a battle between the ins and outs and
the electors are, too often, simply
tools in the hands of political heelers.

LEAVING DUNGANNON.
The Dungannon News reports the
departure of a citizen of that village
wko, is an old Clinton boy:—It has
been known for some time that Dun
gannon will, in a month or so lose
another of her prominent citizen and
businessmen in the person of Mr, John
Johnson who has conducted;a harness
business here since 1908. Mr. Johnson
has something new up his sleeve—
that's why he is leaving ne, of course.
It is a co' operativescheme whereby he
is going to save the, farmers of Ontario
many a dollar in the purchase of har
nese and other requirements for the
horse—direct from factory' to con
sumer, thereby eliminating jobbers
and retailers' profits and travellers
salaries and others expenses. He is
after Mr. High Cost of living in earnest
and his scheme, we know ought to
meet with great success, With head
quarters probably at Stratford, he will
be ready for business about Oct. 1 or
as soon as he completes his organizs
tion work throughout this part of t1 e
province. He and his family •will prob
ably move to the Classic city in Sept.
ember. Mr. Johnson, by precept and
example is a great home trade, man.
Ile believes in patronizing home ing
dustry and does what he can to help
his fellow tradesmen and artesans. le
making arrangements to open up the
above business he has not forgotten
the local :printer. While in the city
some time ago he was told he would
get better work done there; but no, he
decided to get all his work, including
catalogues, done in Dungannon, and
s0 we are now busy filling his, orders.
We are going to show hirn that he'!
made no mistake turning work this
way,
