PARLIAMENTARY LETTER If anything were needed to guar- antee the interest which is being taken by ('anadians in the political situation of the day, as well ns in the policy of the Liberal Party, that assurance has been provided curiae the lest few days by tae splendid audiences which hese turned out to greet Hun. W. L. Mackenzie King, leader of the Liberal Party, on his tour of Central Ontario constituen- cies. Mr. King has been outlining the preecut-day situation in a reties of forceful, thoughtful addrese.:, and everywhere he and to corrpaniuus ave Leen given splendid receptions. While the Liberal leader is carrying out an aggressive campaign of educa- tion and explanation, placing the facts before the people in a manner that they may understand just whst tho present burdens of taxation and def- icits mean to every man, woman and child in the Dominion, the hyphen- ated party of Ht. Hon. Arthur Meighen is stalled in the doldrums, fearful of giving the public too much ' infant:at:on and seeking to shield its own otfenees by concentrating its at- tacking cam paigm on the Drury f :"r•,•' party in Ontario. Mr. Meighen, of course, is still over- seas and the business of the country is at a standstill until he retnrn,. While the burden of 1- .1::-tn is fall- ing m :.t .i- vi'y :v• •,c.ige earner who is least able to bear it, Mr. Meighen i; posing as a Muses, lead- ing the I•:ngl.sh and Irish out of their age -long straps and finding a method whi•rrhy Uncle Sam and the Japanese can avoid getting into fu- ture e•tndiet. Just when our Premier will return is uncertain. There is talk of him sa i ng with Baron Byng on August 4th, sit that he may be on hand to share in the glory of the landing at Qui -hes, but officially there is no inf rnrttiin as W his hopes or plans. There are by-election dates and senate vtu•ancies to be decided upon, as well as the hundred and one other things which er.,p up when the Prime Minister is absent from the country for a few months, but all of these must wait until Mr. Meighen has time, after settling the affairs of the empire, to came home and attend to the pressing business of Canada. Un- doubtedly there will be a rush to get all the busineas, through in a hurry when he doee, get here, but unless there is a great change in the official mind. there •will not likely be a great rush to fill the vacancies in the House of Commons, since felling those vac- ancies will probably mean adding to the strength of the force opposing Mr. Meighen. Observers here give Mr. Meighen'- hyphenated party little hope in regard to those vacancies. There may be one government sup- porter returned, but from indicatiotls and rep- rts reaching here. there is not t safe seat for the governtnent in the whole Dominion. Hon. C. J. Doherty is reported to have gone down to Quebecand war- ned t he Conservatives there that they must be prepared for an election thisyear. However, in official circles there is stated to be little liklihond 'hat the Prime Minister will decide on any such action, espec- ially as an election now would not be any better fir the Government than 10,011 one 0 year hence. and in the neeintime there is another four thousand indcniniry for those mem- bers wb•, kn;w tiewill not get a nomas::,.n again. 'And there are moray seep mitring the Government ?.tm•nr,envm1; pre cooling from and that, that they will not h.• canrliilaies again. • I0 many carr; the ubvi uG rescan is that they knew it would he useless - - they could net secure election. The few rem- aining 1 :;,ars which mei giving full supper;e the Meighen Government are urging the Prime Minister to get ha,•k t snoight Tory basis which only means a change of name1 ami predicting that the rem- aining seerien of the Liberal -Union - i=t will find nn place in the new line up: The papers which are not any longer supporting Mr. Meighen hand and foot, are frankly guessing that his party will he at the bottom of the list when the next election is over and warning him to prepare for the position of leader of a small grout, in the next Parliament. Altogether, the outlook far the Meighen Govern- ment is about as dark as it could he. Hon. Mr. King in his Ontario speeches is covering the ground of present day pnlitics fully. The rail- way and steamship linea, the tariff and general financial equitation and the remedies which ghoul dbe applied to these are fully dealt with by Mr. Ring .in his five speeches. That the people appreciate a frank discussion of the problems of the day has been evident throughout by the large i Crowds which turned out to hear Mr. King and his fellow -speakers wher- ever a meeting was announced and by the tamul'tous applause which fol- lowed the closing of. the Liberal lead- er's remarks. Mr. King clearly slowed the people -of Ontario that in every pound of coffee or tea • they buy, as well as every piece of clothing or dress goods, re •helpirtig' to towel( the already ed' -Wailete of the Govern - ends,: The luxury taxes and wage-earner. The baneful combination of political and industrial interests in power at Ottawa to -day were responsible for the present situation, Mr. King Mated, It was not a question of Canada suffering from the effects of the war. The Dominion was suffering because of the close associations be- tween the Government and the big interests, which grew closer during the war and was continued because each of these interests was able to help the other. The powerful indus- trial interests kept the Government in power, and the Government in turn handed over millions of dollars worth of business to its friends in return for their suptnrt. That it Was the people's money thus squandered made no dii'ferenct to the Government. The powers that be fntanaged combination • had tans ed such a eonlin tib ona o(' business and political Interests in the control of the National Railways e.nd steamship lines that It was im- possible for Parliament, which rep- resented the people, to secure any im. formation regarding expenditures or operations of these utilities and every attempt to bring out the truth in the House was camouflaged and avoided by Premier Meighen and -,his servile sunnorters. This surf of combination; Mr. King declared, was responsible for the suite of affairs as it existed .in (;anada to -day. It was useless fog the Gov- ernment to try and "pass the buck" to the Laurier Government and say that its extravagance made the pre- sent spending necessary. The Laur- ier wr- ier policy was one of needed deVel- opment and not one of useless ex• 1 ravagance. The only solution of the railway difficulty lay'in giving the p10111e the eeportunity of wiping out the c.wi- binatien at Ottawa through the med- ium of a vote. When the vote re- elts in the election of a represent- ar;e• p -r'Helena then there must be f• r' •••:ng of cards on the table, i eveounting for every d„1- • r 'tr • • iblic monies spent. Only rhonesty and publicity eosll the railway situation be solved and -here could not be the one without the other. Mr. King also knocked on the head •h.• attempts of Hon. Arthur Meighen end his associates to charge that the Liberal tariff policy was a thing which veered with the wind and was altered to suit the eompany in which i'. was outlined. M r. King amide it nerfe:•tly clear to his auditors that there was no change. The policy of Sir Wilfrid Laurier was the policy which was followed to -day and al- ways would be followed. "It is 0 e1uestion of tariff for rev- enue against a tariff for protection," Mr. King declared, showing his audiences that the former was a tariff for the people while the latter was framed for the benefit of the special interests. It was this latter tariff that the- Meighen Government sup• ported and which it refused to re: vise until the interests that were be- hind it were ready to have that ie. vision take plane. The issue was not protection versus free trade, M te•King declared, it was clearly between a tariff for protection and one for rev- enue and the Liberals were in favor of the revenue tariff since it was a people's tariff if there could be etch a thing.

Jeri, Casfurd's death occurred at her; hgnic in Elora in her 94th year. She was a sister of the late Robert dl�e11,s, who for some fifty- eight years was a resident of our village., She was also an aunt of Mrs. H.`'Iaison and a cousin of the late Mrd Andrew Bell. Her son, Edward, (tau learned the milling busi- ness at Bells Mills, which at one time were known far and wide. The mill at that time, !eat—ever, was owned by the late Andrew Blair. Both Mr. and Mrs. Casfor,l will be remembered by many of our alder residents. Death of Eric McKay.—It has been our painful duty during the past few weeks to rev:, rd the death of several of our all toe few remaining pioneers that band of ,nen and women who transfornieed the wilderness of Tuck- ersmitb into the banner township of Huron County, that it is to -day, and it is with F. ' w that we this week record the death of another well known resident in the person of Mr. 'Erie McKay, who passed away at his home onj:i'hursday last in his 63rd year. Mr. McKay's illness had ex- tended =aver a period of two years and during ill his long illness he was --a most patient sufferer, never losing his great faith in the God that rules the destinies of all. Mr. Mc- Kay was. a ,on of the late William McKay, who came with his wife and other members of his family from the Highlands of Scotland to settle in the wilderness of the Huron tract and planted, his little shanty in the bush which is now'ruckcrsmith. It was In this humble home that the deceased first save"the light of day and all his life was spent on the farm on which he was born. On corning to manhood he chogeLas his life partner Miss Mary McKenzie, daughter of the late Andrew"1114Kenzie, of the Landon Road, S.tatale i, who has ever been a faithful. and ,loving wife and mother and a kind .friend to all, and who during her husband's lung illness ministered so faithfully and loving to hint. To this union was born a fam- ily of two eons and two daughters, the eldest eon, William, giving his life for his- tppntry in the late war. The other inendbers of the fancily are Mrs. McLeod, of Hibbert, and Ed- ward,and Etta, at home. Mr, .McKay was for many years a member' of St. Andrew's church and all his life was in keeping with - his profession. In the passing of Mr. McKay. Tuck- ersmith loses a fine citizen, and many friends wit miss his presence and sterling q lilies. It was the priv- ilege of t writer to. spend many hours at' bed side during his long illness and always felt as did many others, th sit was like receiving a benediction, enter that sick room. The deep felt sympathy of many friends and 'neighbors is extended to the bereaved family in their great ioss. The funeral was held on Sat- urday last and was very largely at- tended, the services being taken by his pastor, Rev. R. A. Lundy, and interment being made in Ross' cem- etery, Brucefield.
