t
in Canada, had mads
a statement to the Toronto Globe ad-
vising all labor amen, to avoid' the

PARLIAMENTARY LETTER
• The developments of the past weeks
have been such as to bring cheer to
the hearts of Liberals all ever the
Dominion. Down in the Maitirne
Provinces, the Liberal chieftain an
next premier of Canada, Hon. W. L.
. Mackenzie King, is addressing an
sense audiences and getting splendid
receptions. Starting at Sydney, Nova
Scotia, and continuing through the
whole of the provinces, every meet-
ing place has been packed to the
doors by people anxious to hear from
the Liberal Chief gid his lieutenants,
and in every constituency visited the
tale has been the same: one of con -
'dant growth of Liberal enthusiasm
until it seems that there is hardly a
chance for the Conservative candi-
date in any seat in the Province.
In Colchester, Hon. F. B. McCurdy,
is promised the time of his young life,
and in Yarmouth and Clare, where
. Hon. E. K- Spinney will run, there
isn't a likelihood of him being able
to stand up against the sweep of Lib-
eralism which is going through the
Maritime Provinces like a ,prairie fire.
Live candidates are being chosen in
every constituency in the province and
live local organizations are already
at work leaving no stone unturned to
have really strong local machines in
order for the registering of the vote.
The Liberal chieftain is getting a
. wonderful reception at Sydney, where
the Maritime campaign opened, four
thousand people packed themselves,
like sardines, into the curlers' rink,
and another four thousand fouglt in
vain for a chance to get in. So
dense was the crowd about the doors
that Ernest Lapointe, one of the
speakers of the evening, had to climb
through a window to get into the
rink at all. And then, in this meet-
ing, which if any, would have been
the place for heckling and questions,
there was not a murmur of anything
but applause from the huge audience.
Cheers greeted the leader and the
other speakers as they took their
places on the platform and as they
rose to speak, and when Hon. Mr.
King ,finished the applause was deaf-
- ening. At New Glasgow, two theatres
-were packed with people, some of
whom had come seventy or eighty
Miles to heat the Liberal chieftain.
At Windsor, the drill shed was crowd-
ed, and at Bridgewater. a huge rink
was crammed to the door with lis-
teners, some of whom had come forty
and fifty miles to attend.
Receptions have been held at every
point along the route and everywhere
the Liberal chief is being acclaimed
as the next Premier of the Dominion.
Certainly, so far as Nova Scotia is
concerned there is no question as to
the result. -Premier Murray, vet-
eran of Liberalism in -the province
. and, in the Dominion, offered to bet
Sam Jacobs. of Montreal, that Nova
Scotia would return fewer Conserv-
atives than did Quebec -and at that
he was only figuring on one or pos-
sibly two Quebec seats going to the
government.
or age be .with bis" Pa , moved;
6bpp A7orningtoa, .Townships, Perth
County, and, i&i;,the year 1$&5 they
moved to the northern boundary of
McKillop, where he has since resided.
Hew'es married in `the year of 1866
to Annie O'Rielly, of 'MoKlllop. Mr.
Ryan' was of a congenial and kindly
disposition and won the esteem and
respect of all who knew him. His
chiee delight was in :his home and
family, where his wife, four daugh-
ters and three sons survive him. The
funeral .took place on =Monday. to St.
Ambrose church, Brussels, where
Requiem High Mass was celebrated
by Rev. Father Fallon. 'Miss Alice
Wilton played the mass and sang
"Pie Jesu," in a sweet pathetic voice.
The pall bearers were Messrs. J.
Shannon, J. Lamb, T. Archibald, A.
Sholdice, J. Long and Al. Rowland,
and while the remains were tenderly
lowered be the tomb in the Brussels
Catholic Cemetery, a loving and last-
ing memory will long live in the
hearts, and lives of the, many who
now feel that a good old man has
been =taken from our amidst, and whose
heartfelt sympathy goes out in all
sincerity to the widow and family in
this their hour of trial.
Mr. Meighen continues to try and
bunco the people into making the tar-
iff the only issue in this election,
while the people are equally persist-
ent in demanding that Mr. Meighen
"come clean" and give to .the country
an account of his stewordship When
the Premier goes through the Mari-
time Provinces, at least, he will find
that the people have decided to have
their way as to what shall ,be the
issue and that they are deaanding
that the Government stand or fall on
its record -and there is no doubt that
the Government is about to fall, and
fall hard.
This week sees the Liberal leader
campaigning in Prince Edward lslaed
where he is receiving the same en-
thusiastic receptions that have been
tendered him all along the tour. And
then, after the Island is covered, the
leader will tour New Brunswick and
return to Ottawa, fresh and fit for
his further tours of the country.
Mr. Meighen will receive a good
reception here undoubtedly, as is his
due as Prime Minister, but he will
find a much different spirit prevail-
ing throughout the Province than
that with which Hon. Mr. King was
greeted.
Throughout the whole of the tour
the I.iberal leader has made a plea
for unity of action for the betterment
of Canada. Diversity is not an evil,
he has given his audiences, but while
the forces of progress, whether known
as Farmers, Labor or Liberals, are all
working to the same great end, the
betterment of conditions for all the
people of this great dominion, there
is not room for them to seek to at-
tain their ends by dividing into groups.
"The Liberal Party is as big and
brood as this great Dominion," de-
clared Mr. King. "There is room in
it for every section, every race. class
and creed. Come then, let us unite
in our fight against the common
enemy, striving all together for the
betterment of conditions in this great
Dominion, and let us sweep away the
hatreds engendered by war and bring
in their place goodfellowship and love,
making Canada a better and a bright-
er place for all."
The new M•inistere in the Meighen.
Cabinet are a constant source of
wonder to the audiences throughout
the Maritime Provinces. The ques-
tion, "Who are they?" is heard on
every hand, and people are given to
wonder why Mr. Meighen should ex-
pect support for a cabinet composed
of men who have never done anything
and have nothing to recommend them
to the public. "You don't know them"
said Dr. Beland, at Bridgewater, "well
neither do I; nor does anyone else
though he may have been in public
life for a score of years. Mr. Meig-
hen chose them because he could not
get anyone else whowanted to be a
Minister for a couple of months, and
they went in because they had nothing
to lose anyway, and in becoming the
six honorary pallbearers of the Meig-
hen party, they would get the title
of "honorable" for a short time at
least.
' Hon. Mr. King has been keeping
right after, the Prince Minister be-
cause of the latter's disregards in
the matter of the people's rights to
know the date of the election. Every-
- where the story is the same of busi-
\ ress being held up because merchants
and others do not know whether or
not the election is going to affect
their Christmas trade, and buying is
being held off until the date of the
electisn is fixed and business men
are able to make their plans accord-
ingly. Rt. Hon. Mr. Meighen, in his
Montreal speech, was as usual on the
defensive, challenging Mr. King to
-name one autocratic act of whirl the
.government had been guilty. Mr.
King's reply was as forceful as it
was direct. •
"It is not necessary for me to name
any one action" said Mr. King, amid
the cheers of his audience. " The
whole record of the Meighen Govern-
ment nt has been one of autocratic ac-
tions. In railway matters; merchant
marine: in putting through estimates
and• expenditures under 'closure; in
spending public monies by order in
council and then refusing information
't to Parliament and people. and in
scores of other ways, the Meighen
-Government has shown itself auto-
cratic in its treatment of the people"
Mr. Meigben's demand that the Lib-
eral chieftain also name a combine
which had been allowed to operate
wader the Meighen Government tariff
policy, also brought a swift and sure
rejoinder. "I do not need to name
one." said Mr. King, "you all know
then." But I will tell you what one
wren said who should have known what
he was . talking about." Than the
ltsiberal Leader read to his large audi-
encs at Bridgewater the
letter of
.James Murdock to Sir Robert Borden,
an
which Mr. Murdock told of the ef-
'forts of himself, as: a, member df, the
hoard of Oommeree,'to put an 'end
to profiteering and mice -fixing by.

The pastor, Mr. Ritchie, addressed
the children of the Sabbath school
in a very helpful and instructive
manner. -The Merrymakers held their
monthly meeting in the club house
on Friday evening last. A very good
programme was dispensed with a
duet sung by Otto Walper and Lloyd
Miller, which was mueh appreciated.
Miss Ethel Howe gave an excellent
reading. Miss Lila MoCullouch also
gave a choice reading, and there were
many other choice pieces on the pro-
gramme. This societyorganized

ment and improvement of the young

of the late George Lockhart, of Mc-
Killop, s resident for many years of
this section of the country. Deceas-
ed, who Was in her eighty-ninth year,
was born in Airbraiih, Scotland, com-
ing to Canada when about twenty-
five years of age. Up to within a few
weeks of her death, Mrs. Lockhart
enjoyed perfect health; her splendid
vitality and keen interest in every-
thing, not often surpassed by those
half her years. Her christianity was
a vital thing with her; her daily life
radiating love and charity toward all,
and her sunny optimism and buoyancy
reflecting the indwelling of the Higher
rature and source of her spiititual
strength. The funeral services were
conducted on Sunday afternoon by
the Rev. A. McVicar of Inwood;
"Asleep in Jesus" being very appro-
priately . rendered. The interment
took place at the Maitlandbank cem-
etery, near Seaforth, on Monday,

were at the depot and at the cemetery
to do =honor to the memeory of a kind
friend and neighbor. The services at
the grave were conducted by Rev. F.
H. Larkin, D.D., of Seaforth. The
deceased was a member of Duff's
church, McKillop, for many years.
Four sons and one daughter survive:
Rev. George Lockhart, of Hamuota,
Manitoba; James, of Sarnia; Thos, E.
(B.A.,) of Troy, New York; William,
of Windsor, and Mrs. Robert Poulton,
of Moosetown. Her husband prede-
ceased her thirteen years ago.
ea MEMORY OF MRS. GEORGE LOCKHARr
The silver cord to loosed at last,
And broken lies the golden bowl,
And peacefully on to Heaven has paused
Her pure emancipated soul.
Where all were bright- thick hang. the gloom
Her gentle voice is heard no more.
For hidden in the darkness of the tomb
Is that radiant face and the .mile it wore.
Through full four score and seven years. •
Her life was a ministry of love:
Her faith sublime surmounted fears
As triumphed she passed to realms above.
Her memory hack through the yeakv could glide
And pick ilo frayed threads of silver and gold
And these she would weave what e'er betide
Into life's checkered web a the years on-
ward rolled.
Al attained to love were the string, of her
heart
Amidst world of discordant tars:
In the drama of life she played her part.
And her crown is now radiant with glit-
tering stars.
Changeless and fast did her anchor of hope
Rett deep on truth's adamantine rock.
Her soul serene neer in darkness did grope,
But soared benign and resigned above every
shock.
Tenderly does memory cherish the thought
Like a sweet visioned dream of days gone by
Of her artlms letters with tenderness fraught
Which strengthened to a cable the family tie.
When she was nearing the gates ajar.
Her blessing she gave with her latest breofh
To those by her side, and those afar,
Then peacefully closed her eyes in death.
She has gone to join the loved onm there.
And wait for thane who shall later foliose.
Watehing from Heaven's balconies fair,
As we cross life's waters cold and shallow.
For us she 'has blazed life's winding trail.
And has left her footprints on the sand.
If we follow her steps not one shall fail -
To answer to roll •earl in that happy land.

Y
sudden death occurred here on Mon-
day afternoon last when Donald Mc-

respected resident of this village,
passed away without a moment's
warning. Mr. Ross had been suffer=

weeks previous to his death, but ne
serious consequences were entertain-
ed. In fact his health shad improved
so much during the pant few weeks
that he had frequently remarked a-

Cooper. He was a powptfiul:tnan, and:
when I was 'a boy I often stood and
watched him as he 'swung the ham-
mer and caused the sparks "to rise
like chaff on a threshing floor." He
was an expert in snaking, heavy barn''
door hinges, and many of them are
still in use . and as good as the day
they were made. He made the first,
pair of hinges for the Kippen Pres-
byterian church for the front outside
dpor, and they were a model of skill,
beauty and 'workmanship. In addi-
tion to being village blacksmith, store
keeper and postmaster, he was also
a conveyancer and drafted legal doc-
uments for the early settlers. He
generally had anapprentice and
sometimes two, One of the first
boys that worked for him was nam-
ed Blatchford; he was drowned while
bathing in Bell's mal dam. The first
day I remember of being in the shop
was in 1864, when my brother John,
took one out to see it. Mr. Mellis
was satiny, but he had a young Mow
learning the trade, that they called
Tom, and that boy is now the pro-
prietor of the same shop and his name
is Thomas Melba. My brother told
him he wanted a clevis made. Tom
said he had never made one but he
would try, and he made one and at-

Another young man who learned his
trade with Mr. Mettle was Henry
Stewart. In 1867 Mr. Mellis took Et,
trip to Scotland and engaged a man
named James Gleason, (we boys call-
ed bin, Lovely Jimmie), to run the
shop in his absence. Jimmie, like the,,
proverbial Smith, had a spark in his
throat and frequently visited the
tavern at the corner to have it re
moved. 'Jimmie, although a tramp

John Milton,. spent his latter years'

several years. John was quite popu-

HENSALL
Serious Accident. - On Tuesday
forenoon last Dr. J. W. Peck received
an emergency call which he respond-
ed to in record time with his fine
car, travelling at the rate of a mile
a minute. It appears that his bro-
ther, Berte of the Township of Stan-
ley, about twelve miles from here,
was having a forty foot high silo
built and was working on it with a
couple e8 other men at a height of
thirty odd feet, when, owing to the
welt weather, the `scaffold slipped front
its bearings, causing Mr. Peck and
Mr. Harold Ball, who was working
with hive, to fall heavily Ito the
ground. Mr. Peck was the most ser-
iously hurt, receiving injury to his
chest as well as having some ribs
broken and his face scratched, while
Mr. Bell had his arm broken and other
minor injuries. The third man for-
tunaltely from 'itis position on the
scaffold was able to clutch on to the
side and prevent himself from fa11-
ing. Dr. Peek at once upon arriving,
accompanied by Miss Nora Sherritt,
trained nurse,gave the injured every
Jft it y
attention and at date of wi+-stir they
are doing as well as can be expedted.
Their escape, however, from instant
death or much .mare serious injuries
was fortunate and naarvelloaa.
Briefs The continued wet weather
has delayed outside work very much
and both our farmers and villagers
are longing for some, fine dry weather
to get in roots ani • garden stuff. -
