The last instance occurred on Monday last. 1 sent to one of our lexding grocers for a tin of Diamond Crystal Syrup. 18 THIS PROFITEERING! Editor, Independent:â€" * . e 1 was not surprised to bear it had gone upâ€"which is quite the usual thing every weekâ€"but in this case the price jumped about 33 per cent. on the stock the grocer had already in his store. The usual price for this brand of Syrup has been 40 cents per tin. The new price at this particular store is 55 centsâ€"per tin. . When 1 arrived home I spened ny‘ parcel and found the tin of Diamond Crystal Syrup 1azrked plainly 40 cents, To be sure the grocer had not made a mistake, I went into his store on Tuesday and asked the price of Diamond Crystal Syrup, this was the reply from the clrck:; "55 conts per tin, but we are sorry we have none in, just now, they will bo in in a few Now Mr. Editor, this is stealing, and | If I stole 15 cents from that grocer he would probably had me landed in jail. Can you inform what action I can take to have this grocer prosccuâ€" ted? Thanking you for the space and trusting you will be able to answer my question.â€"POOR PUBLIC, ANSWERâ€"The only way that this customer could bring any case against the grocer would be through the Board of Commerce. It was not stealâ€" ing in the true sense of the word, as the customer gave the price the groâ€" cer asked for the goodsâ€"it was simâ€" ply profiteering, or extortion. The customer does not say what he found the coal dealers gullty of, We did not think coal dealers would ever be gullty of any wrong ecept that they might refuse to supply us with coal on credit.â€"The Editor. ‘The Editor, Independentâ€" PE Uem iog o en Sirâ€"The Grimsby Branch of the U.F.O. inserted and paid for an adâ€" vertisement of meeting in your issue of 4th inst., the heading of said adâ€" vertisement as handed in was "Fruit Growers" but it appeared with the word "Shur!" added without the knowledge or consent of the ,dnrt_.l:- EP oo Senin ce enin ers. Of course all those with a miliâ€" tary training were aware that this was a contraction for "Attention," You will agree with me that the word "Shun!" might convey a different meaning to the civilian, so I hope you will accept this correction in the spirit in which it is given. En 9 u. M So o e f Further under "Facts and hlclfl."‘ in the same issue, you refer to Mr. Halbert as President of the U.F.O., Now Mr. Halbert is not President of the U.F.O., but a member of the Federâ€" al House for North Ontario and his views on the tariff question are not mcceptable to the large majority of U.F.O. Fruit Growers. _ x e In referende to your hostile criticâ€" tams of the Hon F. C. Biggs, under the same heading, surely they are not in the interests of the Farmers of the County of Lincoln, as it is generally admitted that his Provincial Good Roads Policy is more progressive and better calculated to benefit the County as :‘ whole than any other so far deâ€" fined. 1 A "Paid n Advance" list is motto.
