CENTRE HURON !LIBERALS
The annual meeting of the Centre
Huron Liberal Associatioe as consti-
tuted for Provincial purpcises was held
in Cardno's Opera Hall,' iSeaforth, on
Tuesday-. Owing to the exceptionally
fine weather which enabled the farm-
ers to get at their long delayed spring
work, there was 'not the attendance
present there' otherwise would have
by profiteers, What other conclusion
could the worker come tos having -re-
gard to the jealous concern with which
the Government has watched over,
and protected, the interests of these
profiteers? The tragedy .of the sit-
uation lies in the fact that these
profiteers are but few in number, yet
their crimes are laid at the door of.
every employer of labor. In other
words, the Government has .destroyed
the confidence of the worker in all
'employers • by its refused to bring
profiteers to account. Is it tee) late
yet- for the Government to do two
things Ilehich may aid in restoring
public cenfidence and averting revolu-
tion? Announcement should at once
be made of the Government's intention
to 'arganize an. Industrial Conference,
representative of workers and employ-
ers, to which will be delegated the
task of preparing a charter agreeable'
to both sides whichwill be embodie
immediately in legislative enactment
by Parliament. A majority of em-
ployers will be found willing to con-
cede a 48 hour week, provided it be
made illegal for any employer to de-
part from this standard. At present
the decent empoyer has to compete
with others who are not so considerate
of their workers. Compulsory legisla-
tion is the only means by which this I
unfair competition, as regards houre
of labor and wages, may be eliminated.,
Another thing the Government must
do if the danger of a social revolution
is to be avoided. The war profiteers
must be compelled to disgorge their
:.ill-gotten gai•ns. Their n.anies are well
Iknown, they are few in number, but
their predatory activities have brought
the country to the verge of social
anarchy. Let the Government at once ,
make lmown its intention to take from
these profiteers at least seventy-five
per cent. of their accumulated war
profits. Then the country will -begin
to realize that the day a the new
social order has really dawned, and
that Canada can be made safe for.
Democracy without any violent up-
heaval or civil strife. If these con-
cessions to popnlar demand are not
speedily made known by the Govern-
ment, then both the Govermnerit and
been, bet every division in the riding the profiteers must, face alone the

from Northern Ontario and the ex-

will yield better results here than
crops grown from our own aeed. - It
is a curious fact that potatoes yield
better from immature seed than from
seed that 'has been matured. This
and the fact that owing to the fresh-
ness of the land the seed is clean,
makes the planting of Northern On-

sentative.

THE WINNIPEG STRIKE
The labor situation. and the causes
which led up to Winniped strike still
in force, and the general state of un-
rest throughout Canada is conciselyr
put by the Statesman which says:
The ,general stecike at Winnipeg is
the culminatiOn of a series of warn-
ings regarding the grave unrest that
prevails throughout the Dominion to
which the Gevernment paid no heed.
One member of the Government has
been heard giving expression to the
opinion that a general -upheaval of the
Winnipeg. type would be the best thing
that could happen, as it would result,
as the war resulted in the case of
the corrupt Borden Administration, in
rallying support to the side of the
tottering Union Gevernment. Thus
the Government feeds and thrives up-
on the evils it creates. The appoint-
ment of a roving Labor Coinmission
at this late hour has had the result
whiehmnyone who knows conditions in
the West .must have anticipated. It
has served to stir up ill -feeling and
bitterness. at a time whest the situa-
tion was.very critical, if not dangerous.
What-, the Government should have
done months ago was to call an In-
dustrial qiiiifeeence where there would
be C. inbre favorable opportunity to
restore the severed links that former-
ly united the worker and employer.
But the Government allowed matters
to drift and no one knows whither
the rountry is drifting.
The war profiteers are at the bottom
of the trouble. For the harassed
oonsumer hes come to- regard the
Government as awned, body and soul,
161 t and is still there. His father,
Mr. Henry Ma.kins, of Clinton, form-
erly of Exeter and six brothers and
thre` sieters survive—Benjamin, of
Exe r, George, of Woodstock, Joseph
of Detroit, John and Edward, of New

day.—The Methodict conference meets
next week in Goderich, some very im
portant matter will be up for discus-
sion and as Goderich is such beauti-
ful.place in simmer time, a very pleas-
ant as well as profitable time is aritic-

Mrs . (Rev.) A. E. Doan attended'
the -London branch meeting of the
W. M. S. in Central church, Stratford
this week .—We regret to report that
Mrs. William. Luker, who a couple of
months or so ago, laid the misfortune
to fall and break her leg above the
knee while attending to some duties
on the premises, and who was just
beginning to go around the house a
little on crutches 'had another mis-
fortune during the past week to fall'
and break her arm which will again
lay her up for some. time, and very
much eympathy is felt for Mrs. Luker
in this her second serious accident
within a couple of months Jo.r so .—
Mr. Burns, a little west of our village,
had the misfortune to lose a good
working horse a few days ago, the
animal taking fright while in the vil-
lage and near the railroad track, at
an approaching train and falling down
dead from sudden fright.—Mrs. Thos.

where she spent a couple of weeks
very pleasantly with relatives and
friends.—We -regret to state that Mrs:
Cooper Forrest and also Mr., Robert
Lorimer are and have been very poor-
ly during the past week or so. —With
the past week of fine warm weather
the growth of crops has been very!,
noticeable and everything is looking
very promising .—The 24th of May
passed over very quietly in our village,
there being no celebration, the shoot-
ing tournament, which however was
well patronized, being the only draw-
ing eard to our village of the day,
and some very fine records were made
by Gett returned soldiers as well as
local men in the village and from the
surrounding country. --Our council are
at time of writing, engaged in oiling
our streets for the first time for Hens -
all and it is hoped that good results
will be realized. In oiling, great care
appears to be necessary to avoid put-
ting oil on, the crossings Where it
would be carried in business places and
dwellings, and the only way .to over-
come this is to shut off the Oil a few
paces from the crossings, and if the
werk is well done it should prove a.
great satisfaction to those driving on
our main streets or residing on them,
as the dust .is often unbearable. Of
course, a g.00d deal of discomfort from
the oiling is bound tg follow more or
less for a day or so atter it is applied,
but after that the benefits are likely
far to offset the drawbacks for the
first couple of days or so, and we would
like to see the system well and system- ,
atically carried out.—Pte. Morgan
Agnew, who enlisted with the 161st
battalion from Clinton and who was
