be given a fair trial before upsetting .I
the entire machinery set up f or its
operation. The Premier pleads for a
five-year trial and devoutly believes
the consumption of liquor will, be re- .
duced to one-half, The Liquor Con-

Township School. Board Bill
Much unfair, in fact untruthful,
criticism of 'the Minister of Educa-
tion's proposed Bill has been spread
through this constituency by design-
ing politicians. Now any school boy
looking at the above COWNSHIP
SCHOOL BOARD BILL" will read-
ily see that it means nothing more
and nothing less than a Bill to pro-
vide a school board for a whole
Township,
Not one syllable in that Bill refer-
red to "Consolidated Schools" and
the Premier at no time has advocated
consolidated schools. He apparently
believes that one school board for
an entire township is preferable, and
it would rest entirely with the Town-
ship. If the Township wanted this,
they could have it, and if they did
not want it it would not be forced
upon them. The Premier has many
times stated that this Bill will not be
forced through Parliament until the
sentiment of the Province desires
same. So politicians trying to make
capital out of this issue are unfair.
As a boy I attended the little red
schoolhouse, and later taught in a
little red schoolhouse. I know their
value as a community centre. I know
full , well they have sent forth our
greatest citizens. In the light of
this knowledge I shall support the
continuance of the present system
where each section has its own board
that knows the individual need of
those in that particular section.
Following I quote the Premier's
exact words which" set at rest all ug-
ly rumors on this question:
The Minister has sought from
the first to make clear that the
schools are under the control of
their boards and the ratepayers
who elect those boards. It is
the duty of the Department to

Some political opponents of the
Ferguson Administration have been
striving to poison the minds of the
electorate that this election has been
rushed on a year ahead of time for
some sinister purpose. This is an
historical fact—"The Ontario Govern
meat may continue for four years,
but usually appeals to the country in
three years; the Dominion. Govern-
ment is elected for five years, but
almost always since Confederation
appeals to the country in four years,"
Sir George Ross held elections in On-
tario in 1902 and.1905. Sir James
Whitney came into power in 1905
and went to the country again in
1908, 1911 and 1914. The war caused
a longer session. Ferguson was elec-
ted" in 1923, again .in 1926, and now
comes in 1929, and, as an admirer of
Sir James, will likely so continue. It
has been the custom since Confeder-
ation to come in three out of a possi-
ble four as the Dominion Govern-
ment comes in four out of a possible
five. When the King Administration Ontario Temperance Act a ten-year
comes to the country next year, which trial, our citizens were asked at the,

Hydro -Electric
The Ferguson Administration has
proven itself in more ways than we
' have space to relate, that it is a real
friend of the agriculturist. The Hydro
Electric, so securely founded by
Whitney and Beck, naturally could
1 become success by first
to continue the 0. T. A. or try ou
the Liquor Control Act, Seventy-
seven constituencies supported the
Government of the day and seven
other constituencies elected Liberals
favorable to the L. C. A. Eighty-
four constituencies out of one hun-
dred and twelve voted to discard the
not only
etc.,mate c turn,
wash, toast, run the radio, in addition
to lighting all their buildings, The
Reform candidate is opposed to this
boon for, the farmer and wanted, a
further reduction for the town before
passing this blessing on to every";.far-
mer..
Previous to the advent of this Gov-
ernment not
one dollar
had
ever
been
given by the Province to bonus rural
transmission lines. Since that time
up to the present fiscal year, the Gov-
ernment will have handed over to
the Power Commission as a GRANT-
IN-AID of rural distribution about
six million dollars.
Liquor Control Act
As a medical man I know full well
the evils and the misery that follow
in the trail of excessive drinking, and,
I will at all times support, legislation
which to my mind will make for so-
briety and morality in the nation's
greatest asset, our children.

Boards. This Bill has been in-
troduced four times in the Legis-
lature in order to promote ,con-
sideration and discussion. Every
facility has been given to meet-
ings of trustees to weigh the pro-
posed measure from all points of
view. Requests for constructive
criticism and suggestions have
been widely 'circulated: But the

Gasoline Tax and Good Road's'
In 1927 this Government spent on
Provincial, county, and township
roads $13,131,617, in 1928 $16,454,-
645.54, this year will be about $18,-
312,836.45. This has only been made
possible through the gasoline tax to
which my reform opponent is oppos-
ed. I believe the\,tourists, the city
and the town dwellers who are wear-
ing out the roads should pay for'.
them. The farmer drives less, there-
fore pays less. A man pays accord-
ing as he uses . them. The Eleven
Millions collected from . this source
last year at three centsper gallon
will be much greater this year at five
cents per gallon. This year the Gov-
ernment granted a subsidiary of Two
Million Dollars for good roads in
the townships and with the increased.
revenue in gasoline tax they propose
next year spending six or seven mil-
lions, beginning a system which will
put a good road to every farmers'
gate. I' heartily approve of this.
Finances.
Before the Public Accounts com-
mittee where witnesses, books,etc.,
can be produced not one dollarof
public money has been found to be
misspent or foolishly spent. The
debt retiring plan whereby its public
debt of Ontario will be wiped out in
from thirty to forty years is being;
copied by other Governments.
I deeply regret that space will not
permit to fittingly tell of the Health
Department which has done'so much','
in saving the lives of tens of thous-
ands of babies. A Department which
speeds auton'iob'iles carrying serum
to young people suffering from spin-
al inengitis and restored to health
one hundred and ninety out of two
hundred such cases. Also I should
like to have toad of the work of the
Workmen's Compensation, Mother's
Allowance and Old Age Pension.
These and other 'beneficent legisla-
tion of the Ferguson Administration
will be further dealt with at our pub-
lic meetings.
If elected, I shall enter into ptiblic
life determined• to give the best that
in me lies in the service of my fellow -
citizens. No person of standing in
this Province expects anything else,
but that the Ferguson Administration
will be returned to power. Knowing
this, would it not be well' to bade a
supporter of saint? In justice to her-
self can North. Huron afford to send
an opponent to a Government pre-
pared to extend so many services to
this county?
Faithfully yotirs,
