It was nevi er intended they would. In fact the Liberals always played with the question .for political pur- purposes The attempt to ase the temperance question as a Party cry is, therefore. not surprising. It is the old Karns over again.'

Powell states that he was not the author of the report of the Conservative Convention ap- pearing in the London Advertiser. He states that he did not report said Convention for the Advertiser but he raid report` it to the Globe, and being I called over the phone he allowed the t Advertiser to secure a copy of it. Cantinu,ng he states that ''the Ad vert sex in the meantime secured an- ' other account and dud not use mine." The Advocate accepts this state- ment Whoever did report to the Advertiser however, made some veru unfair statements as has been pointed out We are glad to hear Mr. Powell say his report was not used. Enclosed with tillsletter is an open letter to .LVLT. L H. Dickson, contain- ing a challenge to debate public ques- tion: at issue before the electors.
