Evidently the Tories have become wise. and wait until the oiling pro- gram-is completed. or intend pulling theirs off in the fall when they are sure. no such sort of program will be liable to mess up the works and interfere with the working of their smooth-running political machinery.

The work of putting the summer suppls of oil on' the county link and in the business section of the Pro- \incial High“ ay is on this week, and as a result. the safest place for a nice new car is in the barn, at least for a few days until the mess dries up.
