LiberaLs Choose New House
Leader
-
At a meeting of the Ontario Lib.
, eral members of the Legislature held
- • in Toronto last week, Dr. MCQuibbin,
the sitting member for North-East
Wellington and present Liberal whip,
was ahosen „Idolise Leader for the
conaing session of ythe 'Legislature.
• Dr. McQuibban succeeds Mr. W. E. N.
Sinclaie, who for some years has led
the Liberal party in the Legislature
' and who preceded ,Mr. Hepburn as
• I leader of the Liberal party in On-
tario.
• No specific reason for the change
of leadership has been given out and
the move will came as a great sur-
,• prise to many Liberals throughout
• Ontarie, as 'Mr. Sinclair has always
. had a suhstantial folloWing. -
It is the •privilege, a course, of
the sittieg members to choose their
leader, and, no doubt, •they who are
' on the ground realize :more fully than
the rank and file of the party, the re-
quire -Me -Me, necessare to make a sue-
eessfel HouseLeader.
Mr.•Sintlaii. is an able m n, a keen
politician and a sound Li8raI, but
like Mae Meighen, with the onserva-
!Uwe, he has, for ,soure.-unkown reas-
on, neve e been a popielae- leader. '
By some it is said he vras,too sound
a Liberal tO"be popular. That there
was no compromiSein his attitude to
other parties, and especially .to the
• Progressive followers in the Legisla-
ture.
Mr. Sinclair, apparently believed, it
is said; that the /three Progressive
niereibees of the -,Legial.stture constitut-
ed too-senall 'a tail to 'Wag the Liberal
•few in the Legislature and their fol-:
lowing teo 8•11 in the country, to he
considered balance of power, or
in any way to dictate the Liberal pol-
' •• icy.
.That the Progressives • should be al-
lowed to go their 'own gait and hang
themselves in their own way: He
,s
• seeese--- didn't propose to kill them 'erithsbut-
- ter, nor did he propose to pet them
baele int a new leasesof
If that .was Mr. Sinclair's attitude
he may be wrong. It is not the atti-
tude of -Mr. Hepburn, the present On-
,
taria Leader, and Mr. Hepburn may
be right: Time alone will tell.
One thing is certain. The Opposi-
tion will be a live unit under the new
leader and the coming session of the
• Legislature will ndt be a dead one,
even if it is referred to as a lame
- duck session.

It every consideration, he said.

mattelsoCouncillor Johnson asked who

The Pace That Kills
Two Ontario Cabinet 1Vanisters have
died within the past two weeks, Hon.
E. A. DunloP, Provincial Treasurer,
and -Hon. Dr. J. D, Monteith, Minis-
ter of Labor.
To ninny, perhaps' a majority of
people, the life of a Cabinet Minister
is looked upon as a bed of ease. The
salary is large; the spell...ding...of other
people's money a pleasant duty, and
the work is non existent.
As a matter of fact, however, noth-
,
-ing could be further from the actual
truth. The life of a Cabinet Minister
Is a drain upon the human constitu-
tion that only the strongest can
stand, and not always they.
These are not pleasant times or
Governments, and as Provincial
Treassirer, Hon. Mr. Dunlop had to
find the/money to finance the .Prov-
ince. 'ThErt was a task greater'than
the head of any other financial insti-
tutiosi in the Province w-av forced to
shoulder.'
And it preied greater than Mr.
Dunlep could bear. Incessant work
and ineeeefant worry are responsible
for hie'death. He died a compare-
tiVely young mat.
The „sante may be said of Hon. Dr.
IVIOnteitle As Minister of Lalbor and

"Dr. Burrows." . .
"I didn't know he was so inter-
ested in the butcher business," Reeve
Crosier remarked..
Town Receives Benefit of Legacy
The 'Clerk read a letter frefrn Hays
& IVIeir, advising the council of,a leg-
acy left to the Toronto Husnane So-
ciety, the benefit of which will be de-
rived by the town. The communica-
tion was as follows:
John As Wilson, Esq.,
Seaforth, Ont.
. Re Anna IM. Campbell Estate.
Dear Sir: IBy the terms of Miss
Campbell's will, she has left a legacy
of ..$300 to the Toronto Humane So-
.cietY, the money to be used for the
purchase and erection of a drinking
fountain for animals on Main Street,
Seaforth.
We are asking on behalf of the Ex-
ecutors of the estate and on behalf
of the Toronto Humane Society for
permission to erect and install such a
drinking fountain and would ask the
council to indicate at what noint they
would perrhit such fountain to be in-
stalled. The fountain will be of an
overflow type with two drinking
troughs, the higher one for horses
and the lower one for dogs.
rWill you kindly place this letter
:before the scouncil at the first m.eet-
Mg as we are anxious to secure per-
mission of the coUncil for the erec-
tion so that the matter can be at-
tended to promptly.
Yours very truly,.
Hays & Meir.
3ifavor Sutherland called on Mr. H.
G. Meir, who was nresent, to explain
the bequest which he did.
"Who pays for enaintenanee?" ask-
ed Councillur L. Eberhart.
"The town, but this will be very
light, only a small flow of water
'being required," replied Mr. Melt:.
The Mayor thanked Mr. Meir and
asked the councillors what their plea-
sure in the/matter was. •
"Put it opiaosite Jimmy Dick's; the
town owns the lot," suggested Coun-
cillor Johnson.
"Quite a way for the dogs to go
for a drink," Reeve Crosier objected.
Mr: Meir •suggested the property
corrsmittee should inspect various
availaible sites and refer back to coun-
cil. The Matter was let stand. .
A letter from the Seaforth High-
landers Band asking for the usual
grant and signed on behalf of the
Band (by C. B. Stewart, secretary,
was read by the Clerk. Council took
no action.

;be required to fill.
"You can re -appoint the old offic-
ials, appoint new ones .or advertise

itions, the matter is in your heeds,"
advised the Mayor.
"Are we going to have two police-
