But calendar amending may bo even more difficult to achieve than amendment of the Constitution! EUGENIA >i KDITORIAL NOTI^S iW. H. THURSTON, r J. THURSTON. /.r.soc. Editor Editoi THE DOMINION ELECTION Buhiites.s Uiul social life continuf unsettled through the political cam- paign, which was delayed by the authorities, they have explained, bc- cau.se the work of completing the voters' lists was held back until the eleventh hour of the closinjr of Parliament. Ordinarily, the electors enjoy the contending of the parties, but they like a short and .snappy contest, and so do the candidates, who recognize that ic-iteration of argu- ments too often confuse the ordinary man and woman. No one â€" not even those -^vith .Scottish antecedants â€" "cauld Rail het again!" It is with satisfaction, therefore, that the public generally, and that includes news- papermen, look forward to the ap- proach of election day, and the end of the gabfests that so often are stale platitudes. A new feature in the coniinic election.s is the greatly extended number of electoral districts in which nominations will be held two weeks before polling day, which is yet over two weeks away â€" Monday, October 1-1. In 70 electoral di.stricls nomina- tions will take place on .Monday next. September ."JO. Our local constitu- ency of (irey-Bruce. formed by the shake-up on the last distribution of seats, is one of the 16 districts of Ontario in which early nominations is provided. Nominations in l(i7 ridings will be held on October 7. Of candidates for election there is no dearth. Alrea<iy in almost every constituency there are four, and in some five, but only one can be elected. Thus, with only 2Vi members to be selected, and a field of 'JOO candidates or more, many are doomed to disap- pointment. Indeed, it seems almost a foregone conclusion that a substan- tial number of those nominated will lose their deposit of $200. It is not always easy for a scat seeker to poll one half of the vote obtained by the winner, as the law reijuires. Hith- erto, but one woman has been chosen for a seat in Parliament, Miss Agnes Straw votes have been taken by various weekly newspapei-s through- I ui the province on the chances of the various parties being elected to lule Canada for the next five years. We have noticed that the papers with Liberal leaning have given their favorites a majority and the same with the Conservatives. The straw vote therefore does not carry much weight. The vote on October IJth will not be a straw affair and the electors will not have to do guess- ing then. • • * With the coming of the frosts the countrj'side is commencing to take on the hue of waning summer. The trees arc turning to their coat brighter coloi-s of autumn. It is the turning |)oint from summer to winter, one of the finest seasons of the year. The promise of spring and glorious warm days of summer are past and fall has arrived with all its wonderful colorings, that painters cannot depict and cold days of wintei are just in the offing. Let u.s enjoy this fall weather while yet we may. visit the beauty spots of our disrict and enjoy the fruits of being alive. • • • The action of the residents of Mark" dale in turning down the continuance of the beverage room in that town is to be commended. Many of the opponents of the beverage rooms in other places will be heartened with the vote in Markdale and an attempt will no doubt be made to free their town of the beverage room. .Markdale is not alone in the trend of the bcv- eragi. rooms as many towns and vil- lages have voted on the local option issue in the past year and carried it, while other places rejei-ted it the sale continued. The majority of the people appear to be of the op- mion that the sale of spirituous liq- uors should continue, is evideht in the votes taken on local option. PORTLAW 1 here was a good attendance at church on Sunday, it being Rally Day. The church and Sunday School com- bined in the one service.

Are we a.sked to jirophesv as to the probable result? We decline. For reasons well known to every news- paper reader, he is a reckless ob- server of passing events who hazards a guess as to the outcome of this contest. Not in many years have there been so many conflicting cur- rents of public opinion, and promise of freedom in the exercise of the franchise throughout the Dominion. So men and women who have been in the canvass game tell us they have found. But even an expert can- va.tser fails to ascertain how some menâ€" ami womenâ€" are likely to vole.

COW TIES, ROPE TIES,, STALL FIXTURES, f â- â€¢' HALTERS, ROOFING, GALVANIZED IRON * ROOFING An organization has been . set on foot to agitate for the general ohserv- "tion of Thanksgiving on a Monday late in October, in place of the Thur-- 'Iny selected by the authorities at Ottawa. For many years the Thanksgiving holiday has been ob- sei-ved on the Monday after the special harvest home .services in the churches, it having been recognized that a holiday occurring in the middle of the week seriously interferes with liuniniess* disrMptjs transportation, Btorekeeping and other commercial institutions, schools atid universities. Thi.^ year, the pMltical authorities at Ottawa switched the d"y to Thursday, after it hnd been fixed for the usual Monday. ft i<»^erferred with their election wishes, and so the fat is in the fire. At nresent it seems highly wobable that the date selected will be ignored by many nieivhants and the following Monday observed. The argument of those dissatisfied is that there is really no means compelling I observance of a particular week day in which to give thanks, and after all public convenience ought to be studied. There Is one way in which a repeti- tion of the vexatious proclamrttion. from a government source, would be avoided.
