The Liberal -Conservative Asso- ciation of North Huron raet iu Wing., ham town hall on Tauretlay afters noon. Teh gathering was not very large, but it was enthusiastic and fairly representative. Ladies' were present front all parts of the riding, Had the meeting been more thorough- ly advertised we believe the halt would have been peeked. Dr. Arra- strong, Gorrie, president of the Assos elution, called the meeting to order and the selecting of it candidate ret stilted iu the following nominations: Jahn Joynt, West Wawanosh, John fr, Winters, .'HoWielt. George Spotton, Wingbara. Arthur Shaw, Morris, T. R. Bennet, Wingham. Wm, McQuillin, West Wawanosh ,Ins. A. 1Vfallougn, West Wawanosh, Mr. Maltough wee the first speak- er, and although Ito had -decided to accept the nomination, he felt it his duty to withdraw in tavor of a strong- er man, Mr. joynt. Mr, Mallough, was president of the Farmers' In- stitute for several years and was tate- secretary of the Board of Agriculture. He had never yet heard any political agitation at any of these meetings. Mr, joint T. Winters had. been re- quested to allow his name to come before the convention. He was al- ways it farmer and was willing to had always declined, but he was this time willing to :tenet, or if the dele- gates saw lit to select some other can- didate 'hewoula be behind him. As a temperance man he was four square and could not afford to change his habits at this time. Ile gaid it wee bemuse he loved the principles of the Hearst government that he keel decided to accept the nomination and if elected he woula be neard fr,om itt Torouto, he would be knowu as it man wao did things, and not a sleep - merely arawing a salary. He thanked the delegates and candidates for selecting him and assured them Mat if they had unity istetheir ranks that North Huron woula be redeem- ed to the party, and that grit and toil ratepayers alike would have it representative at Toronto that woult look atter the best interests of Nortl Huron, and the .remainder of the province wont(' hear from North Hur- on once again. • ' Mr. T. W. McGarry, Provincial treasurer, was present and addressed the meeting. "When we, go to •the country," he Said, "we will go .full of fight, Those who believe that because we have been silent during the last five years of war we are not prepared for thie fight ales underrating our strength. As soon as the word go is announced, JOHN JOVNT, LOOKS LUCE A WINNER ' join the U. P. Os but not until he saw where they Mood 50-50, and, were not ruled by a few. leading . Grits. He was for a number of years a read- er of the Farmers' Sun but he had yet to read anything in its pages where it supported either the Hearst or Whitney governraents, or the Bor- den or Unioa governments, no mat- ter what the move they would take In favor of the farmer. Before a vote was taken Mr. Winters request- ed that his name be withdrawn and that the conservatives of North Huron stand united behind NEL Joynt. Mr. Geo. Spotton urged that the hatchet be buried and asked all those who had at the last election supported him as an Independent Con- servative to come out and give their solid support to whoever might be the choice of the meeting. Mr. Spot - ton said that he was sorry that the liberal section of the.U. Is. 0. had put one over on the Conservative section and had (tended on making the goat of suck a highly esteemed young man as Mr. Proctor. Mr. Xing will have the endorsation of the liberals, for they will not bring out a candle date to oppose hiin at the Dominion. elections. His message to the con- servatives was to drop the old feuds and put on a united front. At tireseut he veould not allow his name to stand. Mr. Arthur Sheaf said it was his first alsPearance on a political plat- form. Ile eould not see why any sane conservative or prohibitionist, no matter what his politics, would vote against the Hearst admitistrae tion. Thay gave us prohibition, and numerous other forms of good gov- ernment, that helpect every farmer and ratepayer. He was not a Can- didate, but urged all to stand behind the choice of the Meeting. My. T. Rs Bentett said he thought the farmer e were doing a right thing when they organized, but the IL P. 0. platform is too narrow. Ile as 9. temperance Man would not have a clear couscience if he voted for any - One but the suPporter of the Hearst governnient. Mr. Bennett is a strong temperance man and an old Howick boy, and received a great ovation from the Howick delegates. Ile has sinee inforthed us that It will in all probability be a eandidate at the next nomination of a repreeentative of the Conservative party for the Dominion House, Mr. McQuillin in a short address stated thatqfe watild not be a candi- date lint would be heart and out behind the needing's ehoiee and he be- lieved Mr. Joynt was the proper Men to bring up. Mr. joyet received a great deal of applause wee% he rase to a &Imes the reeetirtga- affilaid he bad often been asked to fishnet the nomination aed every meinber ofthe administra- tion and every follower of ours in the House will be ready to go before th.e people and tell them. what we have done and what it is our in- tention to do in the future, And when that time comes, the platforms of Mr. Dewart and of the IL la 0. will look so small and insignificant, so full of paucity and blank spaces, that the people of Ontario will come to the conclusion.that this govern- ment raust go back once more." Then Mr. McGarry in setting out the contrast of the fifteen years' record of the Conservative admin- istration -with the years of Ross' ad- ministration recalled the boast of a Liberal enthusiast -a member of the Legislature -in Toronto, recently, that -Mr. Dewart was th,e first great leader since George W. Ross. /"I wonder what was in this man's mired.," he asked, "when he says that Mr. Dewart would be the same kind of leader G. W. Ross proved. himself to be? I wonder if it was because he believed that if Mr. Dewart was successful and became Prime Mins ister hewoutd be carried away back to the sante system of eleetions we had staler to 1905; that instead of reading in the newspapers that a Workmen's Compensation Act had been passed or a Mothers' Pension Bill or that there had been a big surplus, we should be reading as we did in 1902-3-4, of scandals and elec- tion trials, of ballot box stuffing and of timber limits given away. of Can. Sullivan and the Minnie M.; is that what you would want or do you want us to continue as we have during the past fifteen years. During that time four general elections have been held and 444 members elected, basidei many by-elections, and yet not one single, solitary protest has been made In any eourt throughout the Prov - Ince nor it finger pointed at any' act of the government that hinted at fraud," The treasurer devoted a little time to the U.10.0. propaganda, 'With the desire of the farmers to seeure better representation in the Howe and to advance their interest by united ac- tion he bad every sympathy; but he deelared .cmpliatically if the leaders of that organization sought to go further and eonteat the deetinies of the province, it was time a halt Was called.

The treasurer explained the high- way policy of the government, meet- ing the criticism of the IL F. 0. in respect to the provision for provin- cial roads; and b.e sharply rebuked the attempts to create an impression that the main roads were for the benefit of "joy riding =Wrists." The motorists, who were providing through license fees the great sums to be spent on highway construction, would benent-but still more benefit would accrue to the farmer in low- ered transportation costs on his pro- duce,' easier access to markets, a,nd in the comfort he would derive as a motorist himself. Hon. Mr. McGarry chiefly dealt with the government's temperance Policy. He contrasted the sincerity 1, of the government of Sir William Hearst with the insincerity of the Ross and Mowat Administrations, which had received mandates from the people to put prohibition into force, but had utterly failed to obey them, .- "When the vote is taken on this referendum it will not be as it was in the days of Ross and Mowat; the legislation Ontario will have will depend absolutely on the will of the People, because in this province the majority of the people have the right to rule."

Four schools exhibited this year as before. The exhibit looked sveal in the neat little schoot-room, and the grounds were in their best trim for the occasion. The entries were not ae numerous as in previous years, owing probably to illness among the puplls in the win- ter and the extreme beat of the sum- mer, which made enthusiasm dint - cult. However the exhibits sliown were of high quality, and a large erowd or people manifested much in- terest in viewing them. Mr. Stotts - ars, the energetic aistriet representa- tive, had his big tent on the grounds and also brought up -to -elate steel pens in which to 3udge the poultry. During the afternoon the children from the four school sections com- peted in sports of varioua kinds, malt- ing considerable amusement tor sae onlookers. Then followed physical culture, drills by the pupils, caorus singing and a public speaking con- test, The last event of the after- noon was the stock judging in the ring.

Sheep Killed Near Cargill Dogs are taking serious toll of the flocks of sheep in this vicinity During the past week or so there are instances of entire flocks being killed by dogs in one night, On Sunday night James Young, south of here, had the entire herd worried, while the next night Andrew Ditner, a well- known drover of Greenock, lost 23 sheep the same way. John Scenion, of Brant, had eight killed recently, while no less than 50 are reparted to have been kilted on the Tolton farm in Brant. Owners of sheep are endeavoring to round up the dogs that are doing the harm, but up to the present they have not been successful, as the dangerous can- ines are still at large. --Free Press Successful Pickling We sell the Vinegars and Spices that means successful pickling.
