MacKAY DEAD Hon. • Alexander Grant MacKay, M.A.,KC M.PX., Minister -a Mu- nicipal Affairs. in the Alberta Pro- vincial Government, and former member and leader of the Liberal Opposition of the Ontario Legislature died Sunday morning from pneumonia at Edmonton. Hon. A. G. Mackay VMS a native of Grey County, having been born of Scottish parents in the Township -• of Sydenham on March 7, 1860. He was elected to represent the northi riding of Grey in the On- tario House in 1902, and continued as feeniber for that constituency uittil 1913. He held the portfolio of Min- ister .44 Crown Lands in 1904t5 in the Rose .administration, and . was - leader of the Liberal Opposition from 1907 until" the': selection of Hon. N. W. Rowell for that office in 1911. In 1913 he removed to the West, and in the same year was elected to retire - sent the Athabasca District int the Alberta Government, holding his seat continuously until his death. Ron. Mr. MacKay was widely known throughout Ontario and Albetta as well as other provinces of the Do- minion, and was generally regarded as an outstanding member of the legal profession, a distinguished legislator and an able leader of the Liberal party in this province. Dur- ing his _leadership he enunciated in 1908 a new policy for the party in Ontario, and in 1909 was compli- mented in the House by- the Premier the late Sir James P. Whitney, for his attention to the business of the Legislature and his careful guardian- ship of other public interests en- trusted to bis charge as a member of that body. He was a strong sup- • porter c:! the, -Laurier proposals for reciprocity with the United States, and AN:hen that was an issue, in tae 1911 Federal campaign, made several brilliart speeches in its favor. - The son, of the late Hugh and Ca- therine MaeKay, he was educated in the public sehools• of his native town- ship,. in Owen Sound Collegiate Insti- tute and at Toronto Univertity, ob- taining his -X. A, degree from the latter in 1885. • Taking up • the study of law of] his graduation, he was called to the Bar in 1891 and was rnad& a King's • Counsellor in 1902. He feceived the appointment of Crown Attorney for Grey Counts- in 1894 and held that position until. his resignation in 1901. In 1906 he was appointed a commis- sioner for the revision of the Statutes • of Ontario. Mr. MacKay took a keen interest in matters of education, due prob- ably to the fact that he was a gradu- ate from the ranks of the teaching profession,' having been principal of the Port Rowan High School for four . years. He held dace for several years as a member of the Owen 'Sound School Board. He was actively associated with many businesses, being secretary and a director of the Owen Sound and Meaford Railway Company; a direc- tor of the late Farmers Bank of Canada; vice-president of -Canadian Bearings, Limited; and president • of the Bothwell Lecomotive Com:pally, the Imperials Cement Company, the Owen Sound Dredging and Construc- tion Company, and the Supreme Heat- ing Company. Mr. MacKay's connection with poli- tical activities began early in his life and from 1890 to 1894 he was presi- dent of the Young Men's Liberal As- sociation. From 1888 to 1894 lie held the office ef secretary of the North Grey Reform Association. In spite of his many other ac- tivities, he found time to -become in- terested in the militia, holding a captaincy in the 31st (Grey) Regi- ment. He was an ardent devotee of bowling, and was elected president of the Western Ontario Bowling As- sociation in 1909, He W0,8 a mem- ber of the Sydenham Club, of Owen Sound, • Ontario, and the Ontario Club, of Toronto. gsdkulp....,111..M.111111“111•11.10.1111111, OPEN 'CONFESSIONS There is reason to believe, that the old-fashioned campaign fund will sur- vive in spite of the -statement of account furnished by Gould of As- siniboia. The general verdict is that the campaign fend is Inherent in human nature. Men will do a great deal for other men for love - but not -everything. Not everything -that is where the election expenses come in. Mr. Gould's account of eontributions and disbursements -the patient's- face as it were, before and after taking - really contains nothing that would throw discredit on the goad old way of getting it where you can, and spending it where it will do most good for the candidate. It includes rent of halls, travelling expenses of. speakers, cab and auto- mobile hire -aeroplanes are not being used as Yet -newspaper advertising and other items usually found in ex- pense accounts. I do not see it stets ed anywhere, but I have no doubt that the brass band that blows its - head off for either party got HS -share,. also that thetoretieS for the torch- light processjon, the engrossed -ad- dress, and the fat bowled presented to the candidate by -the little .girl with thin legs in white stoeldngs, were ail generously paid fov. We are used to these trimmings at elec- tions andr , can't get along wisthout, Paved right down to the -bone, as Mr. ,Goald says it svae, it is still. a neat little account -in round :numbers, itifievnotetao.uicituaro/s.iviiclgniro.1.1mafruoewnotthfioscrah!dt,rheevickotlde minion of $1,200,000.. Western Mere - hers, loelang °vete-the account, tell me that names appear on ite as ac- cepting twenty-five or thirty dollars for -expenses, Whose owners have a Lend**. thousand dialers or inore,to their eredit Which goes to Show that all is not charity even among the United Farmers. Patriotism_ and public service are all right, but the laborer, as the Bible says, is worthy of Ilia? so let him get away with it even= if - he doesn't reed _the money. Doubtless, Mr. -Gould did not buy votes, but even- if he had bought them the item would not: appear ,in his 'expense mount. ExRense ac- counts are always kept sanitary and a melley is used to -buy votes, it is not banded to. the candidate or his agents who are expected' to testify on oath that they know nothing about it Beyond question Mr, Gould's :was a pure election, but if it hadn't been Mr 4ou1d would ' still remain un - smirched. The practicea where. there is -a slush fund, is not to let the hon- orable candidate's right hand know what the dishonorable, disowned and sinister left-hand is doing. - Ways of Getting Round. • The old parties who have been deal- ing with human nature for the last fifty years are not as keen on fifty cent contributions as Ma Gould. Mr. Mc- Master, who is perhaps . as strict a moralist as any farmer in the House, forsees the poisibility of an individual philanthropist who 'night want to contribute as much as $10,000 for a bandidate of high purpose. There ina.y not be many such philanthropists in Canada; but Mr. McMaster doesn't want them barred out on account of • any fifty cent limit to .the game. • He • probably represents an overwhelming majority in the House of Commons. He would make $10,000 the limit of any one man's personal contribution to- the campaign fund but that would present to insuperable difficulty to the large corporation which would doubtless comply with the law by •allocating contributions of ten thous- and dollars and less among a number • .of their stockholders. The solemn truth is that campaign funds are alwaysemployed on behalf of one interest, or another. It comes 1 to one's mind that even such a hero =as John Bright -he must be the idol of the free trade -farmers-was help- ed by Liverpool and Manchester merchants with a fund of $7,500,000 to spread their gospel and his among the voters. What ' motive could be purer than John Brights' and what campaign fund could have been 'larg- er? Similarly Welch'ss Grape Juice chipped in half • a million dollars to carry prohibition, in the United States, not because Welch's Grape Juice was interested in the moral side of the question, but because Welch's Grape Juice knew that, the hard stuff being barred,.people would drink more grape juice and Mr. Welch would get ;back twenty dollars for every one he put in. That is the way with all cam- paign funds. They cast their bread upon the waters to have it come back buttered. • . Mr. Gould did not deny -----indeed he did not have the argument presented to hini-that the John Bright fund and the Grape Juice -fund °were as pure as the driven snow, but he rather implied • that all Canadian Campaign funds except those of the United Farineria the Grain. Growers Association and the trade and Labor funds, were under suspicion. He seemed to class his fund with the Y. M. CI A. the Dominion Alliance, the Church Forward Movement and other uplift disbursements. He failed to . put thie point over, the average member of Parliament refusing. to see any. difference betceen a .fund which is 'employed to elect farmers and a similar fund employed to -elect any other class of the community. The farmer members of Parliament seethe farmers, that is to say; who are loyal to the old parties -made a dead set on Mr. Gould's superior pre-. tensions. They argued that the farm- ing interest like every other interest has always bad representation in Parliament, and that what is sauce for Mr. Gould's g'oose' is justas good sauce for the other fellow's gander. Mr. Goad himself admits that the farmer, who contributes • fifty cents to his campaign fund regards him as his candidate and will get his fifty cents worth out of him or recall him for dereliction of duty. What, asks Farmer Best of Duffetin, does this mean -that a farmer owns the candi- date because he has bought him for fifty cents!, It looks like bearing the market! He Rises to Explain. Open confessions beingthe order of the day the Hon Mackenzie King nas stated- his reason for not gob* to the war. The reasens were good, lea the explanation was quite unnee:. es.tary. No doubt Leader King has been goaded into this by jibes covert ant] overt, but to all such it was hie te reply by loole:ng. at almost any Cabinet Minister andsaying, "Why didn't you go?" `ro which the right ana proper answer would be, as Mac- kenzie King's is, "I could do more for the war at home." I venture to say thae Mackenzie King did quite as much to win the war by settling strikes in ' 'United States munition factories as did any Cabinet Minister over forty ,years of age at Parliament Hill, Ottawa. And whee it came to people depending upon him Mackenzie King. hall more than his share. In'fact his domestic troubles were nothing short of a tragedy, which it took a brave heart to sustain. - This 'Waiting Mackenzie King for war record -which is one to be ,pro.usl of -has gone quite far enough. The war is over -two years over - it has become history and. history /et it remiire Kr. King did his full duty -did it better than many a politician who is trading now on what ,his, dead son -or his wounded one---didat the front. They speak of theiediacrifices' -sacrifices which they were at least as ready to make es Abraham was to offer Up Isaac, It Was the sons ,who went to' the war that Made the sacrifices, not the politician fathers, Who stayed at home and talked about it. .They are still talking aboat it - the sacrifice is looking for votes. The (thing has become nauseating.

The groom was 1 suppotted by his cousin, Mr. Thomas e Tighe, of Detroit. A dainty wedding breakfast was served at the horne of the bride's sister, Mrs. Harry Nelhems on Main 'Street, to which the near relatives were invited. The presents were numerous and embraced a cheque from the -groom and others from friends' in London, Standish, Mich., Detroit, Toronto and one from far off, Los Angeles, Cal. The groom's gift to the bridesmaid was a platinum 'brooch with pearl setting,. and to the groomsman a pearl tie pm. • Thhe wed- ding ring was of pletiaum. Mr. Quigley is to -be congratulated- on winning the affection of a very 'fine character. His bride lived for some • years in Detroit and the groom like- wise spent some years in the same city. Both • are to be congratulated me settling in Canada 'and on a fine farm near Clinton. Mr. and 'Mrs. Quigley will be at home to their - friends about the 24th of May.

White's text was "Render unto C-aesar those things which are Caesar'S, but unto God, those things which are God's." - The - speaker dwelt on the dignity and nobility of patriotism and showed that to the true Catholie, patiotic, • self -sacrifices even unto death, is a bounded duty. The speak- er paid high tribute to the Canadian Expeditionary Force which was sec- ond to mole, and as good as the best. The unveiling was done by two re- turned .heroes, John Keyes, Jr., and Leo- Dahms. The last post was sounded by Bugler Williams and as the last echo died, away, Miss Loretto Durand sang "In FlandereFields," a beautiful gem composed during the war. - One of the fallen heroes has many relatives in Seaforth, Logan and McKillop. -The reception to Mr. anit Mrs. Michael Feeney at 'the home of Mr. and Mrs. James Feeney, Hibbert, on Tuesday night, was well attended by a very enthusiastic ' number of friends of both bride and 'groom.
