Archambault, President of the French section of the Women's Lib- eral Association of Mntreal; Miss Helen Duherty, Secretary of the East- ern Ontario Liberal Association; Mrs. Iienry Carpenter, of Hamilton, Presi- dent of the Ontario Woinen's Liberal Association. 'Phe Committee was in session all day, and the proceedings throughout were characterized by the utmost en- thusiasm. A careful survey of the Party's position was made through reports from delegates present from These re its the Provinces. all ofPo indicated that without doubt the Lib- eral Party would have a majority in the next House of Commons and would be in a position to form a strong government which would be broadly representative, and as such have both a stablizing effect upon conditions throughout the Dominion and be powerful toward the pronto- tiun of greater unity in our Nation- al life. The reports from the constituencies of the several Provinces indicated that there will be no dearth of Lib- -ral candidates. Already a very large number are in the field and in most constituencies the problem pre- sented to the local committees is that of choosing between the numerous aspirants.. A considerable portion of the time of the meeting was devoted tc devising efficient plans for nation- al organization and effective public- ity throughout the campaign. The question of Mr. King's visit to the Maritime Provinces carte up for discussion and a schedule of meet- ings following the meetings in To- rorto on Tuesday last, in Montreal on Thursday, and Sherbrooke on Friday, was outlined for the Mari• time Provinces for the latter part of September and early part of Oc- tober. It was understood that Mr. King would then return to Ontario, where the campaign of the summer months would be continued, with fur- ther meetings, and, if time permit- ted, a visit would be paid to the West. A somewhat new and important feature observed was the presence of leading Liberal women, as already indicated in the list of those pres- ent. The advice and counsel offered by the ladies was of the greatest value and as•sistance. HURON EXPOSITOR EAFORTH, Friday, Sept. 23, 1921. PARLIAMENTARY LETTER The capital is full of Cabinet pos- sibilities, most of them, in the last few days, walking about looking as cheerful as a collection of morgue managers since they don't know whe- ther to go in ur stay out and the Prime Minister cannot make up his {mind who he wants' or who he can get to hang around the sinking ship. Front the north, south, east and west the Cabinet timber has been flood- ing in, and now half of them are disappointed because they can't affix the title "Honourable" to their names for about six weeks or so. Stevens, of Vancouver; Manion. Fort William; Stewart, Lanark; Tweedie, Calgary, and hale a dozen others have been flooding in here and of the lot Stevens seems to be the only one with half a chance. Tweedie is lik- ely to go to the Bench in Alberta and R. R. Bennett, who was being preached as a tower of strength to be added to Mr. Meighen's dying hopes, has gone home disgruntled. It seems to be a great life, this cabinet building. Hon. C. J. Doherty has been called back from Geneva, and Hon. C. C. Ballantyne is being coaxed to stick with the ship and go down with .it. Quebec representa- tion was talked of freely but the 'Fixers" appear to h•a"i' .fallen down badly on the job. Although tempta- tion of all kinds have been held forth present indications are that not whom the government wants in, will fall for the bait. There are, of course, one or two such as Gauthier, of St. Hyacinthe, who are repudiat- ed by their own party and have no hope from there. They would prob- ably grab at a portfolio, but even the government realizes that with such a cabinet their chances would be leas hopeful, if possible, than they were to -day. In the meantime, the Prime Minister, is showing signs of crack- ing under the strain. He is 'hound- ed day after day by a horde of office - seekers, chiefly members who know their political future at a price, such as s nice, red upholstered chair in the Senate. From out in the various ridings, a sorry tale is coming in to govern- ment election headquarters. Local party managers find they have no held on the people and they are up in the air, appealing for some help in getting out candidates. Ontario is to be the scene of a last ditch fight, but even there the Meighen 'Government is finding things hard to manage. Between Farmers and Lib- erals the lot of the Meighenites is anything but pleasant, and the hyphenated party is facing the pro- spect of coming in a very poor third when the votes are all counted. Their hope of Quebec support has gone by the failure to find a man worth while who could be coaxed in- to the government and reports com- ing to Mr. Meighen from the Mari- time Provinces are that he will find a solid vote against him there. And while things are going so blackly with the Meighenites, the Farmer Party in the west is having its own internal troubles. Dr. Michael Clark, the Red Deer apostle of democracy, who has been the real mainstay of the Agrarian group in and out of the House, has issued a statement saying that he is through with them and will not contest a seat in their interests in the coming fight. Dr. Clark attended the conference with Hon. T. A. Crearer and Mr. H. W. Wood and at the conclusion of it wrote to 'Mr. Crearer pointing out that he had been fighting for forty years against class legislation and class government, and now he had found that the ideas of the man really heading the Farmer movement were heading towards -Class and Group government. Inasmuch as Dr. Clark took a prominent part in the working out of the Agrarian group and policy in the House of Commons, the follow- ing paragraph from his letter is sig- nificant: "After all," he says, "there seems to be .only one method of working out human affairs in the political sphere. The apostles of progress must unite upon common principles, sincerely held, to resist reaction which is ever present like a dead weight to drag down the aspirations of the race for freedom, justice and democracy. "These were the things for which 80,000 Canadians died in the midst of the recent war, but they will not be attained by putting one form of class consciousness in power in place of -another." Though in different words, Dr. Clark in his letter puts the same appeal and argument to the forces of progress as Hon. W. L. Mackenzie *King has been using for months Past. The meeting of the National Lib- eral Committee here during the week was an immense success. Plans for carrying out the coming campaign Were -discussed by the members, who ,lame from all parts of the Dominion $o.. give their advice. and assistance, chid the whole ,political situation as Omit the: future of the Liberal viae uglily eansne ed. At close of the meeting the follow- ,. temeat was issued covering 'e`rpreeeedingat e- National Liberal Organization e Me.t to -day at the. Mike interest to parts of the Dominion where his services May be cost need- ed. In addition to the foregoing, the members of the delegation presented strong arguments in support of their - request. The National took the mat- ter under advisement and promiaes a decision after consultation with all the interested parties. ' At the meeting it was decided to place the Liberal platform before the people as fully and frankly as pos- sible. In view of the present forth- coming eleotion and the tariff cries being raised by the tariff, passed at the 1919, National Convention takes on new importance. The resolution folloWs: That the best interests of Canada demand that stdbstantial reductions of the burdens of Customs taxation be made with -a. view to the accom- plishing of two purposes of the high- est importance. First: the masses of the people; second; reducing the cost of the instruments of production in the industries based on the natural resources of the Dominion, the vigor- ous development of which is essential tc the progress and prosperity of our country. That to these ends, wheat, flour, and all products of wheat, the prin- cipal articles of food; farm imple- ments and machinery, farm tractors, mining, flour and sawmill machinery and repair parts thereof; rough and partly dressed lumber, gasoline. illum- inating, lubricating and fuel oils, nets, net twine and fisherman's equipment, cement and fertilizers should be free from customs duties, as well as the raw material entering into the same. a f the That a revision downwards 7 tariff should he made whereby sub- stantial reductions should be effected in the duties on wearing apparel and footwear, and on other articles.. of general consumption, (other than luxuries) as well as on the raw ma- terial entering into the manufacture of the same. That the British preference be in- creased to fifty per cent. of the gen- eral tariff. And the Liberal Party do hereby pledge itself to implement by leg- islation the provision of this resolu- tion when returned to power. .i: Farm Mr' the late lye mound and :thi, Township,, was on Friday la Mr. Wea, Ale An interesting feature of the meet - and one showing the determination of the Party to leave no stone un- turned toward the achievement in the coming campaign, was the presence of an influential and important dele- gation front the Province of Prince Edward Island, introduced by J. E. Sinclair, M.P., for Queens. The dele- gation presented a unanimous request from the Liberals of Prince County to the Hon. W. L. Mackenzie King, urging that in view of the recent change in the law whereby a candi- date andi date can now run in one riding only, Mr: King should remain in Prince County and not seek election in the constituency of North York, where he had been nominated prior to the change mentioned being made in the law. The views presented by the delegation were offered in the fol- lowing terms: "We, the Executive Committee of the Liberal Association of Prince County, P. E. 1•, believe it would be in the interests of the Liberal Party of Canada for Mr. King, our leader, to accept the nomination for the Prince County in the Prince Edward island for the forthcoming election, in the constituency at present repre- sented by him in the House of Com- mons, rather than the nomination for North York, in the Province of On- tario, for the following reasons, namely: I. The law enacted in 1919 makes it illegal for a member to accept nomination for two constituencies. The practice, commonly followed by the leaders of the great political parties in former elections of con- testing two constituencies at the one time, is no longer possible. This circumstance would not have been known to Mr. King or the members of the Liberal Party at the time he accepted the nomination in North York; nor was it known to the Lib- erals of Prince Edward Island at the time Mr. Ring was elected as their representative. The law was not enacted until after Mr. King's re- turn to Parliament. This is a cir- cumstance of even greater concern' to the Liberal Party as a whole than to Mr. King personally, and in the Party's interest, now that a general electicm has been announced, full ac • count should be taken of it, on be- half of the Liberals of L all the Prov- inces, by the National Executive, as well as the electors in constituencies concerned. 2. It is important that the time of the Leader of the Liberal Party should, as completely as possible, be at the dispossal of the Party as a whole throughout the contest. The Liberals of Prince .County' are pre- pared to say that, if Mr. King will give,_in all 'two meetings in Prince County, they will not make any larg- er demand on hie- time.. throughout the campaign, dart will leave ©him free to devote his a sergies to the Party's EN i6 200 -alts farm of •Thompson en at; goncessions of Hay posed of by auccttiion kpbe purchaser beteg, er, the ..price paid for the pro eB11b$,".ir,' Alexander h arpeing ied thi9s 500.peA prorty for the past 1${ years and he kaowa well, therefore, 'what he was buying and he got value, for the money, paid.

Clauson, who is a resident oe 'Moose Jaw, who is spending a toxo months' visit with friends in his old home village . of Hensall, has been calling on old time friends in Kippen during the past week and all were pleased to have his genial presence among theta a- gain. Mr. Clauson is a harness maker by trade and when a young man some 50 year's ago, first hung out his shingle in the then thriving village of Rodgerville, to the south of Hensall, which at that time was quite a booming place with a Pres- byterian church the pastor of which was the Rev. 1dr, Logie; two stores, a hotel, three blacksmith shops, wagon shop, tannery, shoe shop, a horse doctor, dress makers and other places of business which might be mentioned, but which now, like many other tillages of Ontario, has now been wiped clean off the map. In this connection we !night mention that in this county alone there are 100 fewer wagon and blacksmith shops than there were ,i5 years ago, and with no tun m ,•u comingforward Y g to learn these trad,•s, it looks as if it could only be a matter of a short time when all will be closed, When Hensall sprang int,, being Mr. Clau- son, like all the other business men of Rodgerville, moved his quarters to the new town where he conducted business for 29 years prior to his going west. He is now living re- tired and his ,many old friends wish him a well earned rest.—Mr. James Meelymont is spending a few leisure days with his father, sisters and friends in London. --Silo filling is keeping many farmers busy in this section and as the corn crop is a bumper one, there will be many well filled silos this fall. —Mr. Albert An- derson, of Michigan, was here dur- ing the week visiting his mother, Mrs. John Anderson, who celebrated her 51st birthday recently.

Mr. Ryckman a few days ago wh.L• working for Mr. Mustard, had the misfortune to break his arm, but his many friends here hope he will make a rapid recovery. —Much sympathy it extended by the people of this community to Mr. and Mrs. Isaac Jarrott owing to the ser- ious illness of tha•ir son, Gilbert, of which we made mention last week. Four doctors were in attendance this week holding a consultation, but as yet no change for the better has taken place.--R}y Day services will be held ie our churches on Sunday next. These services are always en- joyed by old as well as the young, while the abundant decorations of flowers adds to the pleasure of the day.—The Missionary Society of St. Andrew's church are making prepar- ationa for the holding of their annual thank -offering services, while the board of management are getting ready for the anniversary services.— Dr. Frank Clegg and Dr. McGregor, of London, were here this week in consultation with two home doctors at the home of Mr. Jarrott, owing to the serious illness of their son. Dr. Clegg was a school boy here in days gone by, being the youngest son of the late R. Clegg, who for 25 years was the ever obliging station master here. Many old friends here will be glad to learn that he has climbed high on the ladder of success, and now enjoys a very large practise in London. Kippen boys will come to the front as they branch out in life. —We are pleased to see Mr. Mnffatt out again after his illness, and judg- ing by the number of loads of grain seen standing at the. grain house daily he is handling a large amount of grain this fall.—Miss Jennie Ches- ney has returned home after visit- ing friends in Toronto.
