their betteruality and substantial reduction
over last year's prices.

after new improved models. '

PARLIAMENTARY LETTER
Ottawa, Mizell- Slat.—The first di-
vision of the ee calm given the
.Government new heart sae to the sup-
port its aneaeutes are likely to re=

troduced by the Qppos tion with the
Sim of causing the' Government em-
barrassment. 'And incidentally it
has served te. show just how badly
decimated ' were the ranks of the
Conservative_ Party in the last gen-
eral election. '

Ibreaking' faith with the 'electors in
that it had included in its platform

belief that a cash grant in addition.

might then have been given, was the
best means of reAretablishing the re-
turned soldier,' and 'that the govern-
ment now did not i'artend giving cash
bonuses to returned men Col. Arth;:rs,
Conservative .member fur Parry
Sound, anoved a vote of "no confi-
dence." The division following an
afternoon's debate gave the govern-
ment the largest majority, on a con-
fidence vote. which has been enjoyed
since Confederation.
There were 42 Conservative vote
cast in favor of Col. Arthur's motion,
and 162 Liberals and Progressives
voted against it. 'Never since Con-
federation has a government of the
Dominion received such wholeheart-
ed support on a confidence motion.
The Labor men, Woodserorrth and Ir-
vine, did not vets and there were
some thirty absent. A full house
would have only increased the ma-
jority.
* • •
'Conservative members, in support
of the 'motion, charged that Liberals
in the recent campaign had been
elected. on the promiee that they
would give a cash grant to returned
soldiers. Liberals, on the of her .hand,
were emphatic in their denial that no
such promise had been held out. The
cash gratuity had not been an issue
in the campaign either way and there
had been no mention of a cash grant
in any speech of the Premier or any
of the Ministers. There was a flood
of oratory on both sides of the Hotase,
as the Opposition charged that the
Government had broken faith with the
people and that it had won the elec-
tion unfairly. The subsequent Pro-
gressive vote, however, was a fairly
good indication of the impression
which the Conservatives succeeded in
making upon the impartial jury which
sat to their left. Those of the Pro-
gressives who spoke on the 'notion
took the middle grounds that this
was one of a series of recriminations
arising from the holding of an elec-
tion, and that they did r intend to
be trapped into voting it, int of con-
fidence in the Governmc, because _,f
that. The Conservative- themselves

supply to which there was objection.
Despite this, however, the Opposie
tion tactics continued, as the Govern-
ment allowed the motion t4 stand t and
went on with the salary and con-
tingencies vote in the estimates. Sev-
eral departments have already been
provided for in this year, so that the
difficulty of being without money to
pay wages and necessary charges
will probably be adequately met.

One private member's resolution
has got through the House in a form
to be included in the amendment to
the Dominion Elections Act. This is
a :resolution moved by W. D. Euler
(North. Wlaterloo), who moved to
strike out the clause which enforces
certification upon a foreign born wo-
man, married to a Canadian, before
she may vote. In the recent election
this clause lost the Government a
great many votes, as by it women
born in France or Belgium, and en-
titled under the law to vote, were
handicapped as compared with their
sisters born anywhere on the North
American continent. They were de-

Members of the Government point-
ed out that conditions were altogether
different this year. The election had
been held off so late that the present
government could not bring down its
estimates in time to have them pass-
ed before to -morrow, when the pres-
ent votes will be useless, and further-
more, the governmentlast year had
asked for interim supply before it
had brought down the Auditor Gen-
eral's report, which was necessary for
study before the estimates could be
properly understood. This year the
report in question had been tabled
on the first day of the session, and
had been in the hands of the niem-
hers eonsequently, for two weeks.
Last year the Liberal Oppo ' on
had protested against the i m

HENSALL SPRING FAIR
Thi South Huron Agricultural So-
ciety was favored with an exception-
ally fine day for their annual Spring
Fair, held in Hensall on Tuesday
this week. The day was compar-
atively warn., and the roads, although
..one too good, were quite passable
for either car or buggy, and the at-
tendance exceeded expectations. There
was also a large exhibit in every
class of horses, many of the entries,
being from a considerable distance,
and the competition in the ring very
keen. A new feature of the Fair
this year, and one which proved sur-
prisingly popular, was a Boys' Judg-
ing :Competition. Four horses were
brought into • the ring, and the ten
boys, all under 21 years of age who
had entered the competition, were
given an opportunity of judging them.
Fifty points were given for the cor-
rect placing of the horses and 50
points for reasons supporting their
claims. The contest proved one of
the chief attractions of the afternoon,
and the directors should continue the
idea another year, as it could be de-
veloped into a big attraction. The
fair throughout was an unqualified
success and the best in several years.
Dr. W. C. Baker, of Toronto, acted
as Judge in the horse classes and
gave entire satisfaction, while Mr.
Harry Smith, of Hay, judged the
cattle, which this year was a small
exhibit. The following is a list of
the successful prize winners:

year. The funeral service was held
