It is nothing but legalized high.. way robbery for the express com- panies to charge thirty cents for car rying a small parcel from GRIMSBY to Toronto, when an outside price for a parcel of the nature should not he ‘over ten centq.--The subject of the carriage ot small parcels on railways should receive the im- mediate attention of the government as soon as the nationalization of the Grand Trunk is completed. Repeatedly, during the past sea- son, express shipped to GRIMSBY from Toronto on Thursday did not arrive/here until sometime Saturday -forty-eight hours, or more, elaps- ing between its shipment in Toronto and its arrival here. While, repeatedly, during the past season freight shipped from Toronto has reached_GRIMSBY in a much shorter time. I notice that the very first spe by the Hon. William Lyon Maker King, in the House, waslso contr to expectation, that even the Tor to."Globts" has taken him severely task for his stand upon the nati alization of the Grand Trunk R way System. The United Farmers 01 had a wonderful victory at and have elected forty five to the Ontario Legislature. ing them, by long odds, the party in the House. The "Globe", in 2 on Monday, October McKenzie-King to t on thisbig question the officials of true nounce themselves The Government of The United Farr Goods ‘31::er 'mtrtttli8gtrY . by freight, any day, reach Toronto the next morning and express shipments cannot do any better than that; while goods shipped from Toronto, by freight, very often comes through in twenty-four Iiours;---and it is a rare thing for an express parcel to come through from Toronto to iGRIMS'BY short ot thirty-six, forty-eight or even seventy-two hours. Although there is a lot of! confus- ion, at present, as to the manner, in which the Government of Ontario will be carried on,in._ the future, yet I think the farmers' should be al- lowed ample time to find their bear- ings and choose their leader and ministers, to form a Cabinet. In former days there was some excuse or express companies, but latterly the express companies have fallen down to such an extent that very often goods shipped by freight reach their destination sooner thin goods shipped by expressp--while the charge for carrying the goods by express is double, and sometimes treble, the cost of carrying by, freight. l, 'c'i. .T 'r.', ' 'c"', The goods handled by the exvress companies are carried over the same line of railway as the goods carried by treight;--hut the express shipments are in cars made up in the passenger trains, while the freight cars are in special freight trains. Those in close touch with each railway company, where millions and millions ot dollars were invest- ed for the purpose of transporting passengers and freight, have also formed exress companies with a limited amount of stock, and these express companies have exacted mil- lions of dollars trom the Canadian peole under the pretence of giving them fast and reliable delivery ser- vice of their goods. , The Nationalization of Railways---. t, and Express Companies.--- Now that . the Dominion Govern- ment has taken hold of the Nation- alization of railways, it should also give close attention to the express business which is closely interwoven with the railway business.

Both of the old parties have lost the confdence of the people-neither one of them carrying enough seats in the county to form a Government and, in fact, the combined members of both parties are in the midority, when the Labor members and the Farmers unite. The United Farmers swept the country, largely on account of their "new idea"--thttir platform was not so very strong, but it was a new idea and it caught on (Juicklv. with thes The growth of the United Farmers of Ontario Ihas been a most peculiar one-as it was not started with the idea ot getting control of the On- tario Legislature at all. _ on way for these two parties" to work together harmoniously is l to avoid questions upon which they cannot agree. ‘ - . .9 The moment t.hat al,' legisldtion is introduced dealing with wagds, and working hours, the interests" of the United Farmers and the Labor Party are liable to clash; and a breach is almost inevitable-c-so that t the only way for these two Darrinq‘ m work and it caught on quickly, with the result that it carried all before it. The backbone for the United Farm ers of Ontario was brought about by Conscription; and the impetus given to the movement in 1918 was a re- sult of the farmers' opposition to Consctription--and the chief movers and supporters of the movement, in 1918, were Anti-Conscriptionists. In fact the date of the real grow of the United Farmers of Ontar was the time when the big deputath went to Ottawa to protest again Conscription and were turned dov Conscription and were 1 by the Union Goverrrent.

Municipal expenses like everything else in Canada has been on the upward trend tor some time. GIIMSBY spent the money, therefore why should she not pay it. The debts have to be paid whether they are paid this year or next. tives When the Town Council on Wed- nesday night struck the general rate for the year at 33 mills they passed the wiest and sanest piece of legis- lation that has gone through the lo- cal house of parliament in years. GRIMSBY had a sample of this last week and while it was only a minor matter still it showed that there was discourtesy being shown on the part of a town official, and it he would do it in one instance he would be very likely to do it in others.

One of their num- ber has coined a new slogan which reads "NO BEER, NO BONDS." This slogan has been pasted up in the tae- tories of the county town and from all reports the labor men are going to live up to it. Had the "Geek" who is carrying an eight cent package of squirrel food around on his shoulders for a head, had only gone farther when he coined the slogan and finish- ed it up he would have found that it read something like this: No Beer, No Bonds No Bonds, No Business No Business, No Work No Work, No Wages No Wages, No Food , No Food--sTARVATION.
