LIBERALS ATTENTION
The Animal meeting of the Centre
Huron Liberal Association will be held

day; May 27th, at three o'cloek, when

annual meetieg, delegatewill be se-
lected for the Ontario Provincial Lib-
eral convention to be held at Toronto
in June.. It is earnestly requested

WAS THE LIBERAL PRESS
BOUGHT
Ever since the last Dominion elec-
tion there has been a keen anxiety on
the parts of many old time Liberals
to, learn why the Liberal Press of Can-
ada, with one or twa exceptions, made
such a sudden flop over to the unionist
cause. The contention that is was
bought over by the Tory party has
been vehemently denied by the Globe
and Star the former leading. dailie
of the Liberal party in Ontario, bu
still the impression exists in the mind
of many and unless the papers con
cerned can give a very much stronge
defence of theit• action than they hav
yet done, that impression should an
, will grow. In discussing the speech G
Hon. Mr. Isennieux on this questio
which caused such an uproar in th
House a short time ago, the Statesma
hits the nail &the head when it says
Hon. Rodolphe Lemieux is not give
to mincing his words when • fran
speaking is called for, and his attae
upon the Liberal Unionist press stirre
the House to its fighting depths. "I
was a scandal," he exclaimed, "the
on one given day the whole of th
Liberal Press of Ontario made a righ
about turn: There were honorable ex
zeptions. 1 have one in mirid: th
London Advertiser remained true t
Sir Wilfrid Laurier. He rernin.ded th
House that, at the same time, Si
Clifford Sifton and Mackenzie & Man
were closeted in Ottawa and the Can
•a.dian Northern -deal was being rushed
threugh Parliament under closure. On
of the most laughable features of th
debate wee,`the trotting out of th
Oronge horse in defence of the Tor
ontro Giobe. t was pitiful to wit
Bess the clese alliance between Georg
gineer engaged by the council on the
subject of a permanent road through
the village was presented. Mr. Pater-
son, son of the county engineer, was
introduced by the ehairman;Reeve
Beavers. He stated that he had made
a careful survey of the main street
and pointed out the condition of the
present gravel road and emphasized
the fact that the present traffiC was
very heavy and all the time increas-
ing. Mr. Paterson furnished an :es-
timate of all the cioets in ,connection
with preparing the present road' bed
for a permanent surface and submit-
ted. figures regarding various types
of paveraent. He believed that a
concrete pavement would be hest for
Exeter, and estimated the total cost
of a concrete road at $37,000, of which
the Government will pay $12,000.
Several citizens spoke, heartily endors-
ing the idea of a permanent road and
spoke of several concrete roads in
various parts of the province. At the
conclusion .of the meeting the fallow-
ing resolution was submitted and
carried by a standing rote: "That this
meeting, composed of ratepayers of
the -village ;of Exeter, asks the council
to submit a by-law along lines sug-
gested by the engineer."

3r, from the New York Times will be
a- read with much interest by the many
Goderich friends of the popular young
lady; whose marriage it records, and
who;is a daughter of Mr. and Mrs J.
B. Kelly, Lighthouse St: On Sunday
evening last, at five o'clock a very
pretty romance in the social life at
general hospital No. 38 came to a
close when Miss Marjorie Anne Kelly
a Red Cross nurse at the hospital, was
married to Lieut. Quartermaster
Harry Joseph Strickler, U. S. A., also
connected with the same institution.
The wedding was a brilliant event.
The cerernony wee performed by the
Rev. Fether Heaney, of Pocantioco
Hills in the auditorium of the hospital
whicl was beautifully decorated for
the ccasiori with palms, lilies -arid
ether flowers furnished. by the Red
Cross. The bride and groom, accomp-
anied by their attendants, Lieut.
Neuhauser_arid Miss Alice McShane,
marched up through the centre aisle of
the chappleethrough a lane formed by
the staff officers and nurses, to the
bower of palms where the officiating
priest stood. The wedding march was
played by Captain Baker. Medical
Cerps, U. S. A. The wedding, was
largely attended by the many friends,
relatives -and others who knew the
young l couple. Following the ceremony
there was a reception held in the
nurses! reception parlor, at which a
large number were present. The wed-
ding presents were of all silver, and
among the presents were a chest of
silver from the staff officers; a large
State platter from the Quartermasters
Corps, ' a silver coffee set from the
nurses and a silver tea set from the
Red Cross. After the' reception was
over, John, Fiesel, who was specially
delegated, drove the t newly-weds
through the sterm df old shoes and
rice to the N, Y. Central, R. It Sta-
tin, where they boarded a train for
"honeymoon land," and on their re-
turn will reside in Tartytovat The
contrecting parties are both very pop-
ular at the hospital at East View,
where they have been stationed for
some mpnths past. The groom is a
resident of Lanchaster, Pa., and the
bride's home is in Goderich, Ontario,

evening of pleasant surprise and much
laughter. In her first number Miss A.

Newton has a very pleasing person-
ality that wins the way into the heart
of the audience from her first appear-
ance. It is a difficult task to make
special mention of any number more
than the other, as eN ery one was a
gem in itself and each exceptionally
rendered. Among her selections 'per-

Brown's organ and the Orange lodges
of Toronto.- Mr. Horatio Hocken rush-
ed to the defence of The Globe and
the Toronto Star with a vigor that
showed more completely than the
speech of Mr. Lemieux how far these
newspapers have gravitated towards
the Tory Party. It was a painful ex-
lubitian for many old friends. of The
Globe and did not • fail to impress the
House.
Over two -million dollars was. ex-
pended by the Government on news-
paper advertising from August, 1915,
to 1917! Why was this. huge sum ex-
pended if not as a direct subsidy to
the Press? No one will accuse the
Bordenites of reckless generosity to-
ward Liberal newspapers. The natural
inference is that the Liberal Press
that deserted Laurier and the Liberal
Party were amply recompensed by the
Government. To talk, as some of
these newspapers do even yet, of the
sacrifices they made for principle is
ridiculous in the extreme and shows
how lacking they are in a sense of
- humor.
Sinclets, of Antigonish, inform-
ed the House that in Nova Scotia
certain newspapers were paid for edi-
torials in support of Union Govern-
ment, a "slush fund" at the last elec-
tions being the sourse of Press corrup-
tion. , Mr. Rowell worked himself in-
to a crusading mood in defence of his
newspaper friends in Toronto? He far -
got his own part in finding a Senator-
ship for the man who who gave him
a seat in the House, and other discred-
itable attempts to seduce Liberals
from their Perty‘at the last elections.
When he asstired the House that Gov -
eminent advertising was distributed
indiscriminately he either spoke reck-
lessly without knowledge of the facts
or in defence of the known facts. The
half has not been told about the cor-
ruption of the Press by Government
subsidies. Why, for example, was the
Victory Loan advertising campaign
handed over te the Canadian Press
Association by • Sir Thomas White?
And what answer has yet been made
to the charges so specifically tabled
by Marketing—a Toronto advertising
organ? The public, despite Mr. -Hock-
en's histrionics, and Mr. Rowell's un-
dignified descent into the market place
believes that the expenditure of two
million dollars on newspaper adver-
tising was the value placed by the
Government on the honesty and integ-
rity of the Press. How the Press fell
from its high estate was seen in the
"spatted dog" cartoon in The Globe,
in which Laurier and Quebec were
brutally caricatured, and by the de-
snand of the Toronto, Star that Barden
should rush. the M. S. A. Bill through
fore the country had an opportunity
to discuss it.

Montreal, May 13.—The week's receipts o
live stock at the west -end cattle market a.
,
mounted to 800 cattle, 200 sheen and lantlYa
800 hogs and 1,575 calves. The offerings s
r morniig were 299 calves, 175 sheep .and lambs
575 hogs and 775 calves.
Trading at the different yards to -day was
fairly aetive, but is the demano was not.
overly keen supplies were ample to fill all
requirements. The tone of the market for
cattle was very strong, but actual advances
were not in evidence. Hogs, after a slurnp
towards the end of the week were stronger
and sold at 522 to 522.50 for choice detects
off cars. The market for calves was ;weaker
owing to the large number of these anima1.4
being shipped in. Receipts at both yards were
far too heavy for requirements sad the price
declined about 50c per cwt.
At the Canadian Pacific stock yards the
week's receipts amounted to 800.

good, $12.50 to 513.50; medium $11 to 512;

-Union Stock Yards, Toronto, May 13.—The
packiug plants resumed operations this morn-
ing, but a fear that the men would again
eome out on strike at the noon hour in
sympathy with the stock yard hands, mem-
bers of the union, who had not been taken
back gave a feeling of uncertainty to the
morning's business. The result was that trade
was alway‘ slow, though a few loads among
the four thousand head of cattle on offer were
left penned at the close of the day. Choice
quality steers were very scarce but a num-
ber of. loads of good butchers and steers
cashed in from 514 to 514.50, one load of
handy weight steers at 515. and a few odd
cattle from 515 to 515.25. There was a big-
ger percentage of butchers of the quahty
which crashed in from $13 to 514. Taken all
over, values , were on a level with those of
last Monday before the strike at the packing
'plants occurred, which meant a reduetioa of
-from 35 to 50 cents on the prices paid on
,Wednesday and Thursday of last week when
quotations were inflated consequent on the
meagre shipments. Good cow. were' about
steady with the trade inclined to be slow
throughout. Heavy bulls were slow and a
shade weaker,. but good butcher bulls were
a moderate trade at the values of a week
ago.
The stocker and feeder trade was far from
being active. Some short -keep feeders cashed
in at surprisingly high price range of from
514 to 514.60, and 900 to 950 pound feeders
sold from 512 to 513.50. A few loads of
light stockers sold from 59 to 510. Milkers
and springers were steady. •
Quotations for calves returned to the levels
of last Monday, and while a few extra choice
walls sold at $16, the general top priee was
515. Sheep and lambs were scarce, but values
held firm.
- W4th, the exception of one or two deckssof
fed and watered hogs which sold at 522, a
light offering of .hogs cashed in at 520.75
1.0.14, which price the packers had guaran-
!teed for to -day. There was the talk of cut-
ting quotationa 50 cents tomorrow.
The receipts w•e 198 carloads, with 3,916
cattle, 976 calved, 1,290 hogs and 77 sheep
