STORM DAMAGES,
TREES. AND CROPS
Threshing Under Way
Again Following Two
Weeks' Rain.
A terrific downpour occasioned
heavy damage to crops and orchards
in the Brumfield: district on Thurs-

Trees were Newi?. down in several
sections, blocking roads. Tall spruce
trees especially suffered. Tops of
these were torn loose and hurled
down to block roads, and tore down
telephone lines.
Orchards saffered heavily, cursory
checkup showed. Many of the older
trees were blown over. Fruit on the
trees suffered from hail in some in-
stances. Crops were flattened in the
fields.
Harvesting throughout this distriet,
erhicb .hae been titerayed for two
,weeks by rain, is this week under
way again. Farmers state that the
majority of straw is Practically worth-
less owing to the wetting the grain
got when stoked.
_
IhreshIng operations are almost
continuous throughout the distnet,
`many of the outfits working far into
the night in an effort to make up for
the time lost_
Quality of grain appears not to have

Speakers Claim Temperance
in Huron To Be An Issue
in Forthcoming Election.
ENTIRE EXECUTIVE
IS RE-ELECTED
Liberal-Oonservatives, meeting- in -
Hensel Friday evening, nominated Dr.
R. Hobbs Taylor, Dashwood physician,
to carry -the Conservative banner in
the provincial election set for Oc-
tober 6th.
Dr. Taylor, who is 42 years Old, and
has practiced at Dashwood for,, 21
years, won the nominattab. over Geo.
H. Elliott, of Clairton, who contested
the eidiag on behalf of the Conserva-
tives in lhe past two electienti. Dr.
Taylor was chosen by a vote -ot 133
to 139.
Five were nominated at the conven-
tion meeting at Which Premier Hep-
burn was branded; as a lawbreaker be-
cause of bis setting aside of the Can-
ada Temperance Act an Huron, Perth
and Peel Counties.
Those nominated were Dr. Taylor.
Geo. H. Elliott and Frank Donn,elly,
of Goderich, James Morley, of Exeter,
who was re-electedpresident of the
riding. association, and Nelson Tre-
wartha,. of Clinton, a former member
for the riding. However, only Mr. El-
liott And' Dr. Taylor allowed their
names to stand.
Temperance An Issue
As the meeting opened it was soon
made clear that the Canada Temper-
ance Act would be ani issue in the
election in Huron, County. Mr. Tre-
wartha, who spoke first, sounded, the
note for the campaign when be de-
ciared, that while Mr. Hepburn was
going up and down the province talk-
ing of bhe C.I.O. as a law -breaking or-
ganization, his own- Government had
broken the law and refused to accept
the findings of the Supreme Court
and the Privy Council in regard to
the Canada Temperance Act as it ap-
plied to Huron County.
The same note -was struck by Ash-
ton R. Douglas, K.C.; president of the
Coneervative Association of London,
who was the speaker of the evening.
Mr. Douglas. declared, that the reason
or the electioa heing cialled _this year
is a shortage of Hydro power:
"Mr. Hepburn, can't face the people
another twelve months with the pres-
ent Hydro policy without being dis-
covered. There is a real and acute
Hydro shortage. Has he brought a
single qualified engineer of the Hyd°
department to say What power is
available? ehallengedhim to de so
at his next meeting. To -day we are
using all the 456,000 horsepower which
the former Government badcontract-
ed for and in the last three weeks Mr.
Itepleuer asked Gatineau for 50,000
and now he is going to ask for an-
other 60,000. He has tried every
means to open the door to Beau-
harnois but he can't do it.'
Touching on the labor question, Mr.
Douglas declared that this was not
an issue since the right of mea to
organize for collective bargaining was
recognized 30 years ago.
"If Mr. Hepburn is so afraid that
Mr. Rowe is going to do something
to help the C.I.O., why does he risk
going to the people this year? Why
doesn't be stay another two years
and protect the people from this hor-
rible ogre? The first C.I.O. strike wae
at Sarnia and Mn Hepburn did moth -
