it is any male or female who is a british sub ject 21 years of age who has ordin arily resided in canada for twelve months and in the electoral dis trict two months before the issue of tho election writs these may vote on oct 29th great dissatisfaction prevails out in the county at the fcction of the highway department in exacting a monthly tax o 60 on the own ers of the bus line running between the end of the danforth car line and the village of markhairi in addition to this an extra charge of 4y a day i3 imposed by the city of toronto for the privilege of unloading the passengers at the street car terminus on the danforth whiie tne dissat isfaction may exist the fact remains that the bus takes business from our railway which is running at a tre mendous loss each year and the people of canada are called upon to make up the shortage why shouldnt the bus be taxed the argument against markham township council to the eftect that a bad precedent was established in allowing the sixth concession to re vert to the municipality and the eighth concession taken in the countyprovincial good road system isnt to be taken too seriously the fact is that the entire provincial road system was more or less revised all over the province hundreds of miles being affected by the change and therefore there was no precedent established here before changing the two roads in markham a survey was made by the highways commis sion and it was found by actual checking that more trucks and com mercial cars travelled over the eighth line than over the sixth and this must have influenced the powers that be to take the action they did as a purely successful politician and nothing more it would be hard to surpass r h halbert the pro gressive candidate in muskoka-on- tarlo riding up to the time of the ufo movement in ontario mr halbert was recognized as an orange tory of maimer township near orangeville not making much headway with this party he changed horses and rode the race of the ufo to- a successful finish in the riding immediately north of stouff- ville just recently he captured the progressive nomination for this same riding which now includes muskoka and last week he went to the liberal nomination meeting which was called to select a candi date to oppose him and persuaded the convention that he was as good as any liberal they had to put up the delegates thereupon decided not to put a candidate in the field and mr halbert is now counting on rid ing the two horses during the pre sent campaign halbert must be the man we used to sing of in the song any oldjiace i can nang my
