Talk is cheap, but liquor advertisements mean dividends. --Fifty millions of a surplus and a reduction in the national debt of 20 millions. How is that for a record for the Borden Government in its second year of office ? * ** —The energy with which Hon. Frank Cochrane is pushing forward the Hudson Bay Ranier ay bcheme is in stricking contrast to the fifteen years of Liberal promise, —Sir Frederick Borden is again a candidate for Parliament in his old seat, which should go a long way to improve the chances of the Conserva- tive party at the next elections. * * * —It is reported that Sir Wilfrid Laurier will spend a few days at Murray Bay. Hcy old friend "Ball" Taft is spending the summer there. Wonder will they discuss Reciprocity ? --Discarded and discredited though they be, the Laurier ex ministers are making a frantic effort to get back into power again. Office holding under Liberal auspices is evidently quite profitable, x** "Laurier finds himself now in a most humiliating position as the result of blocking Mr. Borden's Naval Aid 13111. Laurier must now any himself s'de by bide with Bourassa, that anti- British agitator. er* —The Liberals, when in power, talk- ed a lot about providing shipdocking facilities and repair works on the St. Lawrence. The Borden Government has done no talking abcut it, but the contract has been let. * * —The Government is going to serve up fried f eh at the Toronto Exhibition. Wouldn't this be a perfectly good chance to provide some useful employ- ment for the seatless ex -Ministers• of the Laurier Government • ? —The nation Ll debt under the ▪ Liber al regime was increased by some $$1,- 000,000. In its sacord year of office the debt was 20 millions. Yet the Liber - ale think the people want them back in office again. Not couch. * * * --Sir Wilfri,l Laurier is shrewd enough politician to know the feeling of the country, He is not indulging in any of the bombastical fj'.ibdub of _some of his late colleagues, He knows that Canada wants Borden, ---Oo1. Sam Hugbee, Minister of Militia, was on the right track when he jumped on bibulous'officers at Hali- fax, There ate times when a little plain speaking is a very good thing all rcund. That was one of them, —The knock -out administered to the On'atio Opposition in North Grey shpws to what a hopeless mess On- tario Liberalism has been r educed. Sir Wilfrid may have to abandon his fall teili of Qntario, as he abandoned Xis "Vertern tot;r a year ago. X.

The Laurier Governtiiaent epent the public money In filling the pockets offavorites oc c party y IF x * 1117,.,yf,11 ■ The Wingham Ildvance. —The death of Senator + ills of St John removes one of the most useful and respected members of the Upper House, AIthough a strong Liberal, Senator Ellis did his own thinking, as his course on the naval bill showed, lie will be greatly missed from the precincts of Parliament. ** -=-•Sir Wilfrid Laurier bas been spending much of his time since the session in visiting Montreal and con- ferring earnestly with his Iieutenants there. There are evidences that all is not well with the party in the Mon- treal district and in Quebec, despite the strong appeals which the ex - Premier bas been making to his own province. * * * --Hon. George P. Foster, Canada's energetic commercial traveller, is now drumming up trade in the Orient. The reciprocity pact with Australia will likely be completed on Mr. Fos- ter's return in August, which will mean one more link in the Minister of Trade and Oommercu's ambition of free trade within the empire. —The efforts the cabinet ministers are making to keep in touch with Western sentiment and developmeast are shown by the number of ministers who are visiting this summer the country beyond the Great Lakes. The latest to go West is Hon, J, D. Llazen, who will probably go West to Dawson City. * * —So great is the home market be- coming that there was shipped into Canada last year nearly six million pounds of butter, This was not be- cause the dairy industry is declining, but because the home market is grow- ing. And yet some Liberals want a market in the Uaitecl States which is already producing more agricultural products than it can use. k * —The city of Galt, Oat., has secured a very practical illustration of what the killing of the Laurier reciprocity pact means to Canada. An American corporation,• capitalized at $2,500,000, is about to move its plant to Galt, as it can do business now more profitably on Canadian soil. Had Reciprocity carried, the city of Galt would have been just so much the loser. The actual surplus is as good as Hon. W. T. White's e3stim to in the mouse. More thati $55,000,000 balance on the tight sides of the ledger and reduetioha in the national debt. o 2oioo,El,(li>0 is a etcotd of wbiCh anp over'nt><leent would have right to b ie pron40 a, * « iu'athadat le not importing butter fxeetlnt'�the other eod of the world, whereas Lairvierr and Fielding and et few others thought that the farmers of a:naada would be ruined if they could not have the "matket of ninety ntililotas'" opened to them for their hatter, —The Toronto Globe's "Abolish-the- Btr" cry which failed so utterly in the North Grey bye -election is quite on a par with the political principles of that clerically edited Liberal organ. Of what use are hypocritical editorials on "Abolish -the. Bar" when in the same issue of the paper appears a full page advertisement, of "the beer that made Milwaukee famou- ?'' —The Liberal press after a lapse of fifteen or sixteen years has again taken up the cry of . extravagance against the Government. In 1893 the Liberals declared that if elected they would reduce the annual expenditure from three to five millions immediate- ly. What were the actual facts ? In the first five years of Liberal rule the taxation was increased 117 per cent. Their ery now is as insincere as it was in 1803. The policy of the Borden government is to spend • the public' money for the public good. Nation 1 development is the result, —The Liberal leader in Ontario says the Conservatives won over Ilse pro- vincial riding of North Grey because of their alliance with the lic;rior in- terest. What about the full page beer and whibkey advertisements which the "Globe" carries? The dividends Mr. Rowell once receivedd from the Globe came in Large part from the so-called liq'ior interests. But the Liberals believe any cry, no matter how hypocritical or false is justifiable providing it wins an election. The people have more common sense than he credits there with, however. Wigghan>i H.

What would our town be like with- out the hand ? When the boys march down the street playing a good lively military march we feel as if We wanted to go to war or do some great and heroic deed. We can't help feeling that way everybody does from the oldest to the youngest. That is why there are bands in the Army and Navy l The band is one of the best institu- tions in town. When it plays we forget our differences political and religious— we forget our individual quarrels and feel that we are all members of a coni - won brotherhood, ready to put our shoulders to the wheel and boost our town and nation. We are proud of our band and wish it every success. —[A Citizen. Quiet Wedding. On Tuesday evening at the Metho- dist parsonage, a quiet and pretty wedding took place when John G.

During his stay in Winghani Mr. DuPlan made many friends who will watch hie future with deep in- terest, Leaving For China Miss MA' garet Walks of Paibley and Miss M • garet Brown of Tiverton, both g' eluates of the Walkerton High Schorr, will be ordained as missionaries to retina, The ordination of Mies W lies will take place at Paisley on 'l h rsday evening next at 7 30 o'clock, :sen Rev.
