These frieds actually appear to believe that it is the newspaper's business to handle all these affairs. But a self-respecting newspaper, though ready and willing to carry all reasonable responsibility, must re- mind its readers that they -the peo- ple -are the authority upon whom rests the responsibility for the pres- ent state of affairs local, state and national. A self-respecting newspaper tries to report the news of what actually happens, not what it might wish had happened. The relation of a self- re- specting newspaper to the general public ie always tinderetood. It j8.• the duty of a newspaper to be in a position to support any good act and criticize any bad act of public policy, This relationship cannot exist where favors are asked and granted. Honesty is • the only policy for :a newspaper., If objectors don't like the . way things are going, they should qual- ify as voters, and then raise cain a- bout it. NQ PLACE LIKE HOME. This new ballad by Walt Mason, the well-known American writer, will be appreciated. To add a local touch to the composition we have substituted a word in the, last line. "'Mid pleasures and palaces though 1 may wend, I find the - home merchant ' a much valued friend; - The nailorder catalogue wooes me in vain, '. For to buy without seeing gives me a pain; The home merchant credits' till pay day arrives: He knows all the whims of .his friends and their wives. His overalls wear like buckskin of old, His buttons ain't brass if he tells you they're ' gold; Of every community he is a part, And even the kids know the path to his heart. He boosts for the chapel, the lodge and the school; Community uplift is ever his rule. And even the baseball team looks kindly on him in the athletic dream. I'd rather have him at nay elbow each day Than to deal with someone furlongs away, Let us' Snake the 'thing mutual and stand by our friend, There's no place like Wingliani for money to spen , STOCKINGS AND PRINTING Fergus News -Record How gullible: the ,general public are when spine oily tongued outside sales- man makes his appearance in town. They seem to swallow everything,• Recently a traveller selling ladies': hose repeated his visit here, He got orders before, selling 6 pairs at a bargain price of $1,92 per pair, The' youngrlady customer was supposed to buy six pairs to get this wonderful price, yet if she hesitated or refused, she was offered four pairs at the same rate, Yet a much better quality of hose can be purchased in the local stores for $x,5o per single pair, and. you can prove it any day. The trav- eller mustseli higher to meet his ex- penses and yet he contributes nothing toward local taxes. A Toronto stationery house had a traveller call on our business men a short time ago, but few of them fell, He: did not guarantee a . better job than we do, but said the price would be 20 per cent. lower than our prices, but could not back up his statement. Only a short time previous we quot- ed a customer on eight' thousand as- sorted letter heads, and the traveller's price, delivered, was just $3.5o more. than ours when tax and freight char- ges were paid. He neglected to, men- tion the latter additions when• giving his quotations. Town people should remain loyal to local merchants in all such cases and not listen to plausible stories un- truthfully told d Y by the glib -tongued unscrupulous traveller who is never seen again in many instaces. VOTE BOTH PARTIES OUT It is hard to understand the reason (or unreasonableness) of the Pro- gressive group at Ottawa voting non- confidence in the Liberal and a few days afterwards voting now -confiden- ce ,in the Conservative and yet it is probably the best thing for the coun- try that an election' should be held to try and,clean up the Ottawa situation by returning one or the other of the parties to power, with a working ma- jority. A few progressives remained loyal to the Liberals in their every vote, one of these was the North Huron member, but that meant that while Mr. King was premier, Mr. Forke, leader of the progressives, was the administrator of affairs. He also remained with his old political party and resigned the leadership of the progressives after Mr. Meighen was named premier by Lord Byng. HURON MEN IN ALBERTA ;: HOUSE Many inembess of Alberta's newly - elected Legislature are former resi- dents of Western Ontario. These in- clude Hon.J. E. Brownlee, returned as prime minister, and A.
