(Continued from page 8) F. W. Foster spoke of the eight-hour day, which was purely a federal imue, as was the tariff. and need not be s stumbling block between the farmer and lsbor man. 'The question would be dealt with at the present session of the Dominion Parlia- ment. It was noticed, however, that farm hand adapts himself to the condi- tions as they prevail in the country. an industrial worker coming in from the coun: try adapts himself to the town conditions, and the bushman to the conditions pecu- jliar to that oceupation, and Mrs. | 'School Teachers Association, Secretary of the Veterans now making hie home here. ssid he bad an axe to grind He ssid that it would be impossible to get good educational results unless a fair sulary wae paid to the school teacher.

Jobaston, Anderson and Swindle responded, the others having declined the nomination immediate- ly their names were proposed. Messrs. Drury und Foster moved that the candidate selected should be reuired to sign a resignation and place it in the hands of the three executive committees to become operative when signed by 55 per cent, of the electors voting at the election, The rraolution was carried by G. Gudgin. unanimons standing vote. Mr, Dudley stated his views on a number of topics but way not allowing his name to go to the convention. He was not in agreement with the farmers on the tariff Pulling down the tariff wall would have the effect of throwing too much isbor on the market by closing the factories or would drive the manufacturers into 8 com bine with those in the United States. He was not a prohibitionist. He believed that the Inboring man wax poorer to-day wth the highest wages he had ever been paid than when he only got $1.50 per day. He believed that the returned soldiers should be dealt with in a generous munner. if the Government decided they should re- ceive a certain amount, either $1,000 or $2,000. let it be paid and the matter dis. posed of. The extension of the hydro «ys: tem in the constituency would be great benefit Mayor Anderson spoke of the signs pointing to the breaking sway from old party lines. The farmer and organized labor were in revolt and he believed they were right, He referred to hia experiences of sixteen years, when he was in the em ploy of the different governments through: out Canada. He had seeured through this He stood for In his opinion, Canada to-day disunited. There were geo- graphical barriers, racial, social und relig. ious differences. He looked for the day when some man@®bf outstanding states manehip would be raised up and would lead the people of east and west, through compromise, into @ better understanding of euch others conditions. The man was not yet in sight. but he had faith that would ultimately come forward late Finance Minister, Sir Thomas White, his made» colossal blunder when he had issued $1.500,000,000 in bonds free of taxation.

Speuking especiallyyto the farmers, he said the cattle industry dition of the fact that live cattle could not be shipped to the United States and to Great Britain, He urged the farmerg to husband the cattle industi for th government was doing nothing. |He announced at the close of a very ex- cellent address that his duties as Mayor of the town would not allow him to enter the political field, and that he would not allow his name to go to the convention J.B, Johnston briefly explained his pos. lition would be the prople's representative on the | jeross bnehes, not the Government's repres. jentative. He would be Independent. He jsccepted the whole platform as set forth jand would support legislation which would \kive equal rights to all. The auto li- |cense money, he claimed, should remain | lin the County, If that were the case, |there would not be a rate of 3 mills as at present. He described himself as a commercial traveller on a salary, who had been on the farm until be was 16 y of age, In reply to a question as to his stand on prohibition, Mr. Johnston said he was ready to swallow the whole plat- form as indicated, and would enforce the wishes of the people expressed at the refer- endum. T. F, Swindle said that this movement jof the common people had been likened unto s windstorm, but he believed it was an earthquake. The people's reprosenta- tive would be elected to the legislature, and the people's party would be called upon to form a government, He said the money which should be spent on good roads from country to town or city was spent to build a speedway for the rich from one large centre of population to another, It was a mistake to construct these roads which were then in competition with the railroads. \ These had been baby-fed for years to furnish transportation facilities, 'and it was by distribution that the tioncin the high cost of living could best be secured. On the liquor question, he said he had always been sasociated with the prohibition movement, and would support it now, but as he believed in democracy he would carry out the will of the people. A previous speaker referred to the lack of whisky during the flu epidemic, but he believed there were more lives lost be- eause of whiskey than were lost during the flu.

Fisher was in Toronto on | Monday attending a meeting of the Canadian Wheat Board, Manning Doherty, of Malton, U.F.U. candidate in Peel County, was the first witness examined. He claimed that the basis set by the hoard of $2.15 per bushel for No. { hard wheat f.o.b. at Fort | William, and $2.18 for Nu. 4 On- tario wheal .f.0. at Montreal makes a spread at Montreal be- tween No. 1 hard and the Ontario| wheat of five shillings per quarter, He understood from ex- perts that the nurmal spread was two shillings. He complained thal the Europ- ean countries in the market for food stuffs were demanding the "whole" wheat, the idea being to give them bran and shorts for feeding their live stock. "Our farmers here are insisting upon a fair proportion of our wheat crop being milled in this coun- try in order to supply Canadian tioned to the counties according to mileage. He stood for the curtailment of unnecessary expense such ax that of Gov- ernment House. He was in favor of the recall, as he thought four years too long factory, He had been urged to stand for nomination and be considered it his duty to allow his name to go to the Convention. 'Tt was past 7.30 before the result wes announced, and during the interim Mr. Drury dealt with some of the Federal is. sues from the farmers standpoint, for the instruction of organised lsbor.

If the price of offal were raised all kinds of dairy products must increase' in price on account of the high price of concentrates, which had increased 33 per cent. Wellington Hay, M.P.P., repre- senting the elevator interests, stated that the street price of Ontario wheat was 81.93. "We want to help you to work out a solution to make certain millers act honestly," continued Mr. Hay. "We are here to help you in the handling of the On- tario wheat crop.
