Justice Is Not Blind
A few years ago a millimetre 0911trZ1C-

enorneine graft in connection with the
construction of the uew Manitoba parlia.
Vent buildings. He Waa sentenced to
serve three years in the penitentiary et
Stony Mountain. Various rumors were
current regarding the special treatmeut
he received at the penitentiary. The act-
ual facts were only made available re.
, cently, during a murder trial at Winni-
peg, ulteu the -warden of the pentitente
ary waft on the witness stana giving tali -
deuce. He was questiotied regarding his
treatment of the millioniare contractor,
autl admitted that be bad never been
eenaued in a cell, that his bair este :weer
cut convict. style, that lie was allowed to
write letters freely, and that lie had never
been put iuto convict uniform, This
special treattneut waseteeorded the con-
tractor by special orders from the depart-
ment of juste at Ottawa, and irt less
tban a year ou the plea a ill health, the
• contractor was allowed his freedom,
Other poor devils in the peuitentiary,
convicted a much smaller crimes were
degraded by having their heads shaved,
clothed in a hideousuniferm, and were
locked up at night ill a miserable cell,
where they slept on a comfortless bed.
These poor miserable creatures had no
political pull; had no great wealth at
their disposal, and bad not committed
their edifies by the eonuivanee of crooked
politicians. In tbeir ease, therefore the
. law was allowed to take its course, but
• when wealth and po1itie1 pull interfeered
justice was not so blind, TMs matter
should. be probed still ,furtiter and if this
is the system on which -the department

This story of Wm. Rogers, a seaman
in the Mine Sweeping Branch of the
Royal Navy, is absolutely true and can
be readily verified.
At Niagara Camp, in 1914, Rogers con-
• traeted Rheumatism. Re was sent to the
TorontoGenerel Hospital,where for over
19 moeths he was a patient, finally being
discharged as incurable. In despair he
took a friend's advice and tried Temple-
' ton's Rheumatic Capsules. The resulta
were astounding -in a short time he was
able to .pass the stiff examination set by
the Navy, and became an A.B. in the
Mine Sweeping Branch.
For 17ee months he did service in the
. North Sea. On three occasions he was
blown into the sea and remained in the
ice-cold water as long as eleven hours at
a stretch. Despite these hardships Rog-
ers had no return of his previous
trouble. Thirdabout it. If T.R.C.'S

OFFICE OVER CHRISTIE'S STORE
During the last of the "Seventies" both-
,
the Presbyteriana and the Methodists
erected handsome frame houses for their
Ministers Rev. Wm T. Wilkins was a
fine citizen, He took great pride in t he
manse grounds, havihg dug up the spruce
in the woods, Willett have long been con-
spicuous for their beauty. their shade and
shelter around the lawn. He and Mrs
Wilkins kept open house to both young
and old in the congregation. Their fine
horse and carriage were a welcome sight
upon all the roads. Both were in life's
best days and they left their mark upon
I3eigrave. Rev. Joseph Philip was also a
YOUng Preacher apcl heel a successful pas-
torate on this circtfit. He was very tall
and slender but a good speaker. He is
still preaching, taking supply work in
Hamilton, and likes to talk about the
happy days in Belgrave. Rev, Mr, Wil-
kin resides in Trenton, and has the dual
position of' clerk of Kingston Presbytery
and Convener of the General Assembly's
Committee on travelling expenses. Mrs.
Wilkins also enjoys good health. The
church of England 'waa of later date .
A new store to the south of the Queen's
Hotel, dealing in groceries, flour and feed
afforded business for one of the best
known men of the village; Malcolm Mc-
Kinnon, was quite popular. He was
very spry for his years and his young and
musical wife was an additional attraction.
She.was organist in the church of Eng-
Idnd and taught many pupils their first
'lessons on the organ. • The manse was
the only place wbere a pieno was heard.
The McKinnon's had, therefore, many
business and professional friends, In fact
Malcolm was humorously acknowledged
to be Mayor of the toWn.
The best choir in those days was un-
doubtedly that of the Methodists, Branr
dons and Pro-ators were names who gave
e it a real body. Matt Brandon was a good
tenor and Ab, Proctor a leader in the bass.
The Walsh family also took a leading
part. We can hear those splendid an-
thems still zinging in our ears. Up in the
Presbyterian Church the time honoured
precentor officiated at his desk under the
high pulpit. Sandy Robertson was one
to be coveted anywhere, he knew how to
strike the pitch and had a voice, clear
and musical, We can see his body sway-
ing in unison with the music and his eyes
scarcely ever looked at Ins book, He
knew the psalms from end to end. •
Bill Duman had a store on the north
end of main street, which has been for
many " years the etxtporium for tin and
hardware. We have only the recollection
of having been once in the place when
Duncan was proprietor and that was to
get a pair of Sunday -go -to -meeting shoes
fre and Mrs. Duncan were well liked but
removed to London • or neighborhood.
Bob Gallaher was tin -smith for quite a
While, he was a son of one of the best
known Morris families and a very oblig-
ing citizen. The store changed hands
many times, Duncan McCallum being
one of the latest ti conchict the business, -
It has alwaysteen a good stand and John
Geddes is at preseut meeting with success.
Billy Watson was ohe of the best known
Old Boys, He and Bin Welsh diyided
honours in erecting churches and the fine
residences, which have been added to the
village and which mark all the highways.
The former lived near the church of Eng-
land and the latter on the' brow towards
the station. Watson took a great Inter-
est in the village, No one was more pop-
ular. He never seemed to grow old and
his clean-shaven face and fine physique
aided irt preserving his youth. It was
with deep sorrow that he was laid away,
after a lingering illness. His Wife, a Miss.
Geddes, wes also a great favorite and fell
with hira by the same maledy int;o an
early grave. Walsh toned awriy a ntnn-
ber of years Ago.
We have already referred to John Gil-
lies, the station agent. He was a young
married man when he was appointed the
first G. T. R. official to sell tickets; ship

TOM MIX, M. P.
Last of the Cowboys to Ride The Range,
Noted Screen Star Achieves Fame
by Hard Work and Ability.
Tom Mix, M. P. (meaning Master of
the Plains) is the last of those picturesque
riders of the range who formerly were a
so necessary part of the atmosphere of
the great West.
• Since civilization has reached out and
set its hand on the open plains, the cow-
boy of tradition has gradually disapPear-
ed, or so aanged his appearance that he
is haacfly recognized in the modern pro-
duct of today. No longer is seen the
picturesque chaps and the sombrero. No
longer is it considered necessary to be able
to heat -ride the daring Arab or the farnous
Cossacks in order to dry nurse a herd of
cattle. Instead, the more workaday
overalls and the omnipresent 'River' have
usurped their place. •
Tone Mix. the William Fox star, is one
of the few of the famous band who refus-
es to recognize the supremacy of the steel
steed and swears by his horse and his
