You unconsciously feel that you can safely trust him to do your business, public or private, and that seems to be the kind of man whom .you` would rst select to represent you iii the Ontario Parliament. Not the man who changes his opinions. to" best suit the occasion, who has nomind of his own, but rather fol- lows blindly thedictates of some party leader, and who is known to be an advocate of one thing today` and the opposite thing to-morrow. ` `.,.,.During the last session.of Parlia- ment Mr. `Thompson was able to se- cure grants under the -Colonization Road` Act, amounting in all to near- ly $7000. This included a grant of $4000 for repairs to a road in Sun- nidale which was damaged by oods` [on the Nottawasaga River, and an-; other grant of $1750 for repairsto road and for a bridge over the Wye River in Tiny Township. The conditions under which these grants . -a e always given are that the munir ' 7 palities supplement them by an equal amount.
