THE HURON EXPOSITOR
SEAFORTH, Friday, Nov. 26, 1920.
U. F. O. WIN EAST ELGIN
East Elgin elected, the Farmer
candidate, Mr. S. S. McDermand, on
Monday, in the by-election for the
!seat in the House of Commons by
208 over Mr. John L. Stamen, the
Government candidate, and 1,134 over
Mr. W. G. Charlton, the Liberal. The
vote was as follows:
McDermand. UF 0 . . 3,063
Stansell, Government
.2,855
Charlton, Liberal . 1,929
Total vote nand 7,847
Vote on. lists, approximate10,500
The electors in a three -cornered.
contest voted overwhelmingly against
the Government, and of the 7,847 odd
votes cast the Government candidate
received only 2,855. The riding has
always returned a Conservative since
1891. n only two municipalities
Port Stanley. and Port Burwell, did
the Government candidate have ma-
jorities. In Aylmer, the main town
in the riding and the only industrial
place of consequence, the people ap-
parently did not take seriously the
argument put forth by the Conserv-
atives-, that 9, lower tariff would ruin
its industries. Aylmer gave. a ma-
joefty for the Liberal and the policy
he adyocated. in the townships, of
course, the vote was heavy for the
Farmer candidate.
In ea by-election ever held in. On-
tario has a Government put forth
such coloesal efforts to hold a seat.
Everyone says that the result
is a mighty blow at the prestige
of the present administration. East
Elgin has spoken in no uncertain
terms. The entire organization of
the Conservative party has been in
the riding for weeks. The Prime
Minister himself spoke in. the rid -
ire.; t vice. Two Cabinet Ministers
lately responded to the call, -and
endeavored to convince the people of
the worth. of the present administra-
tion. Hordes of private Conservative
members, organizers and publicity
men invaded the riding. They spent
money and gigantic effort in talk and
advertising. East Elgin listeried and
then voted against them for the first
time -in many years. It will be re-
membered that Hon. Mr. Meighen,
the Prime Minister, made a personal
appeal in East Elgin, and he told a
great meeting in Aylmer that "the
eyes of Canada are on East Elgin,"
which showed the significance he felt
the result must have.
MOTOR LICENSES TO COST
MORE
With the cost a living just begine
Ring to come down, the cost of motor-
ing is about to go up. In order to
provide revenue for the great high..
way scheme upon which he is work-
ing, Hon. F. G. Biggs, minister of
Public Works and Highways, has de-
cided to put into effect an all-round
increase in motor license fees which,
it is anticipated, will result in an
increase in revenue of about $750,000.
The higher fees, effective at the
'beginning of the year, will affect all
classes of cars, but the high powered
tars will have to pay a bigger share
tka,n they have in the past.
On the four -cylinder car of not
more than 25 horsepower, a class that
eanbracee practically all light moder-
ately priced: cars, the license next.
year will be, $13 instead of $10, an
increase of 30 per cent; On heavier
ears the increase varies, but will
average between 35 and 40 per cent.

Eight to 12 cylinders 20

,
For eyiinders $30
Si' cylinders 35

instead of $10, with a rate of $6 per
ton, or fraction thereof, on , every
vehicle of over two tons. One -ton

up to two tons $5, with a rate of
eg per ten on trailers of greater
earryieg capacity.
Motor busses will be classed as
Ceeneraereial vehicles and the fee based
on the combined weight of a capacity
load of passengers seated, the average
weight per person being placedat
150 pounds.

ing will ,pe charged from 1$2 to $5.

McKILLOP
Death of Mrs. Lynch. -On Thurs-
day, November 18th, the Angel ,of
Death called to its eternal reward
the soul of a well known and highly
reepeeted resident of McKillop town-
ghip, in person of Mrs. John
Lynch, after er lingering illness of
are than two years, which was
borne with great patience and forti-
Onde. Mr,. L3mch, whose maiden
name- was Anne Manley, was .born at
Preston in 1840, having thus passed
her 80th year. When•quite young she
came to Mcleillop with her parents
and brothers, settling on the 10th
concession; that part of the township
still bears the family name. Some=
years latter she married • Mr. John
Lynch, who Predeceased her some
four years ago. The funeral - took
place on Saturday to $t Columbart
church. The large concourse of pece
ple testified to the respect and esteem
with which the deceased lady wee
le=id. Requiem high mass was cele-
brated by the pastor, Rev. .Father
White, after Which the remains were
laid beside those of her husband in
St. Coluneban cemetery. 'The deceas-
ed was .of a very kind and contented
dispoaition. he was a good and
generous neighbor, who will be, long
missed from the community in which
she lived. She leaves to mourn her
loss, one son and two daughters,
Mathew Joseph and: Miss Katherine,
at home, and Mrs. Henry McIvor, of
Tuckersmith, who have the sympathy
of the entire ,community. The pall,
bearers were John Murray, William
Moylan, James Evans, Wm. Manley,
"Francis Evans and Thomas Moylan.
Good Neighbors Gone. -Mr. Alex.
Kerr's sale of last month was a fair
success,, and he and Mrs. Kerr have
moved to Seaforth as on aceou.nt of
ill health they had to sell their farni.
After a number of 'years of successful
and hard work they accomplished
ranch. Their„ residence, which. they
erected Some nine years a4o, was a
house of beauty both inSiCi'd and out,
as Mrs. Kerr's unfailing sand left
rib -thing undone and she made her
home a garden of beauty, and many
were the sorrowful laments that she
had to leave the place where she was
born and raised, and where she was
always there to do her duty. Noth-
ing seemed to be too much' for her,
as she hada ready and willing hand.
During the last year and a half she
has had to manage, also the care of
this farm which she "acconiplished.
As she has had to leave this 'neighbor-
hood, where she has always lived.,
we may say she felt no worse than
her •neighbors to say good-bye to
her and her husband as their place
will be hard to fill. Although sorry
to /oose such friends from this neigh-
borhood, we extend the hand of friend-
ship to Mr. and Mrs. Patrick and son
and hope they will fill the loss we
have sustained in Mr. and Mrs. Alex.
Kerr, both of whom we hope will en-
joy a well earned rest in their new
home and will soon be restored to
health again.

DUBLIN
Notes. -Mr. M. O'Loughlin, of
Borden avenue south, has completed
giving his house a nice neat decora-
tion of painting. Rev. Father Noonan
and Rev. Father McCardle consider
it the neatest painted dwelling in the
village. The suggestion of these two
reverend 'gentlemen sustains the high
qualifications of Mr. O'Lotighlin as
a painter. -The new Standard Bank
is nearing completion. It will be
about one month before it will be
open for business. It is of red brick,
elegantly constructed by the contrac-

Dublin and Monkton. We wish Mr,
-Eckert every success in his new en-
terpeise.-One of the U.F.O. Dublin
scribes is very anxious to know the
political leanings of the many other
scribes. I, for one, was a great fol-
lower of that grand. old chieftain,
Sir John A. McDonald. From a po-
litical point of view that will give
Dublin one U. F. 0., one Tory, and
I presume that their is one of the
Bolshevist clan. -Mr. Looby, our
genial creamery man, is turning out
large quantities of butter daily: -
Our store keepers have everything
in readiness for a large Christmas
trade., -John Bennewise, M.P.P, af
Brodhagen, has decided to locate in

terial in preparatien for erecting a

be glad to have Mr. Bennewise as a,
citizen. -The fuel question is becom-
ing a serious matter at the present

Anniversary.2--Notwithstanding the
unfavorable weather we had good
congregations morning and evening
at the anniversary services in our
church on Sunday last. The special
music provided by the choir was
much. appreciated. The preacher of
the day, Rev. George Morley, B.A., of
Toronto, even surpassed our expecta-
tions. In the morning he delivered
a strong and helpful gospel message,
taking as his text, "God is a spirit
and they that Worship Him must
worship Him in spirit and in truth:"
In the evening he gave a sacred re-
cital of "The Other Wise Man" by
Dr. Henry Van Dyke. It was well
done, interesting and inspiring, and
gave us an impressive picture of
practical religion that we cannot soon
forget. Monday evening was an
evening of real entertainment. A
solo by Kathleen Skelton, of our vil-
lage, a.nct a generous number of sel-
ections by the Seaforth Quartette,
were listened to by an appreciative
audience. All of this musical pro-
gramme fitted in so nicely with the
programme provided by Mr. Morley,
the trained elocutionist. Mr. Morley,
whether in serious or humorous sel-
ections, is a -master of the art. The
audience was again and again con-
vulsed with laughter. We had hum-
o.ur in abundance and: all of a high,
refined order. Entertainments of
such a quality serve a very real Pur-
pose in sending people back to their
homes and duties with a lighter
heart. Were such an evening's en-
tertainment to be repeated, we believe
the Seaforth Quartette with Mr. Mor-
ley would insure a crowded house.
Nottes.-Mr. William Elcoat, who
recently sold his fine farm and had
a sale of his stock and implements,
moved to his new home in Seaforth
last week. W'e will -Miss Mr. koat
from our community, Ise he was a
good neighbor. He and his daughters
took an active part in the social ac-
tivities of the community. We hope
they will be long spared to enjoy
their new home.

vices of St. Andrew's church will be
held On Sabbath, _November 28th,

many here and a powerful preacher,
so that these services are being look-
ed forward tis with pleasure. Special
music by the choir under the leader-
ship of Mrs. James B. McLean, is
being prepared for the anpiversary.
Mr. and Miss- Crawford, of Ripley,

Mrs. James Bowie and Miss Edith
Bowie, of the village, assisted the
choir of Union church, Brucefield, at
their anniversary services on Sunday
last. -Mr. George McKay,' a highly
esteemed resident of our village, has
been confined to his home for the
past few days through illness. Mr.
McKay, who has reached a good old
age, is not so able to stand the storms
and battle of life as in days gone
by, but all friends hope he will rrsake
a speedy recovery. -We also regret
to mention the illness of Mr. John
Workman, who is again under the
doctor's care. Mr. Workasan has
many warm friends in and \around
the village who greatly sympathize
with him in his frequent attacks of
illness, and all hope that improvement
will soon come. -Mr. William Moore,
who is here from Detroit, reports
that the big boom in that city has
broken and that liviaig conditions
there at present are not very pleas-
ant as there are some 75,000 people
tramping the streets out of employ-
ment. -Mr. and Mrs. John Patterson,
Mr. Sproat Patterson, with his wife
and little daughter, were visiting
friends in the village during the not
part of the week. They came to at-
tend the, golden wedding of Mrs. Pe-
tersen, sn's parents, Mr. and Mrs.
Duncan 'McGregor, of the village. -

lieves in enjeying life as it helps to

William Anderson, and his aunt, Mrs.

lege, the past Week cel,
the right place .having had long experi-
50t 'anniversary of their marriage.
It is the earnest wish of -their host
of friends that many more years of
happy married life be granted to this
worthy couple. -Rev. Mr. McFarlane,
of Bayfield, :who conducted the ser-
vices in St Andrew's church on Sun-
day morning, met with a nasty acci-
dent while en his way to Hills Green.
Owing to the icy condition of the
road his ear skidded into the ditch in
front of Elder McKay's. Fortunate-
ly Mr. McFarlane escaped unhurt, but
hie car was badly -damaged. It took
Mr. Jarrott's team and half a dozen
men to get the car on to the road
again, where it had to be left while
Mr. Anderson, of the Parr Line came
out in his car and took Mr. McFarlane
on to -Hills. Green. The reverend
gentleman considers that he was lucky
in escaping so \well as had the car
turned over, th.e results might' easily
,have beet much more serious. -As
the cold snap of the past week has
nowt moderated, many farmers are
making haste to get their roots up.
In fact some are just getting their
potatoes up, and although the long
fall was one of the most favorable'
many are still behind in their work.

are busy .preparing for their bazaar
which is to be held in the basement
of the church on Friday, December
10th. A great variety of plain fancy
articles will be on sale and supper

the Methodist 'church have decided to
hold their annual Christmas enter-
tainment on Wedfiesday evening, De-

well advanced in yeats Mr. Ortwein
has the vim and energy of many men
only half his years and with the long
experience he has had in the store
line, coupled with his spirit' of en-
terprise, energy and go aheaditive-

tendance and excellence of the supper,
while the programme was a long and
very interesting one given by local
talent, and we only regret that we
have not more space at our disposal
to give a more extended report, but
-suffice it to say that a better supper
was never served by the ladies of
St. Paul's church, both for qUality
and'quantity, and a most enjoyable
evening was spent by all. Rev. Mr.
Garrett, rector, very pleasantly dis-
charged the duties of chairman. The
proceeds amounted to $225. -Mrs. G.

ionek yards,
November 23.-04;4
the fact that the heavy run of cattle ex-
pected for to -day's market failed to arrive
prevented prices making a further decline.
As it was, the 5,000 head or thereabouts, add-
ed to some 500 held -overs were sufficient to
make business very draggy at prices steady
with last week's close. Most of the stuff
Offered was common and canners being plenti-
ful, sold at as low as three cente per
pound. The only class that moved at all
freely was choice butcher cows but the price
was no more than steady at 57.50 to $8.60
per cwt.
Business in stockers and feeders was very
slow, though there were a good many farm-
ers on the market looking for good cattle
of these classes. Two carloads carried about
all the good feeders in the lot, and the relit
were very common and sold slowly, in fact
One dealer said that he expected to be all
week getting rid of the supply he had on
hand to -day. The weather to -day was not
the kind to help business and things may
pick up a little if an improvement in that
direction occurs to -morrow, but even the pres-
ent price for all grades of cattle is not likely
to hold up under a big run.

The receipts were -461 cars with4,888
cattle, 217 calves, 2,354 hoge and 6,380 sheen
and lambs.
