, Big Crowd From Timmins at,/ the Falls for Labour Day Despatches and reports from Cobalt indicate a big row on in the Liberal ranks there. Prominent Liberals are said to be withdrawing from the supâ€" port of Major Mae. Lang. asserting that he has been imposed upon the party by a clique, that he is an outâ€" sider, and that the Convention. that nom inated him was a packed one, with men not citizens of Canada taking prominent part, ete. . Eight of the executive of the Cobalt Iaberal Asâ€" sociation have resigned. Efforts are being made to have Mr. Donald Meâ€" Eachren run as an independent Liberal, but he is understood to obâ€" ject to this proposal. In any event situation means that there is turâ€" sgemoil in the ranks. The Labour Party m said to be‘ arranging for a conâ€" _" vention shortly and this will further k upset the calculations of the machine " lads. The Ottawa Journal and cther outside newspapers are featuring the trouble at Cobalt and no doubt Major _ Mac. Lang will need all his diplomacy to smooth out the situation. n _ Mr. Spotswood has sold his interest in the Timmins Drug Co., to Mr. C. Desaulniers, of the company. . Mr. and Mrs. Spotswood are visiting in Cochrane previous to their return to the South, | Timmins was probably better reâ€" presented at the event than any other outside town in the district. Some of Timmins Football â€" and _ Baseball teams were present and the Timmins Citizens‘ Band contributed much good music for the oceasion. . As soon as the special train reached the Falls the Band went to the Rink where an unâ€" usually attractive musical programme was rendered. The people present at this feature, and also those listening to the Band on the march and at the athletic grounds were enthusiastic in praising the Timmmins Band. ‘‘Timâ€" mins certainly has a very creditable band,"‘ was a commonâ€" expression. Wherever the Band happened to be there ‘was a big crowd gathered to listen to the very fine music rendered so well by the bandsmen under the effective charge of Leader F. J. Wolno. The Troquois,Falls Band, under Bandâ€" master â€" McGrath also contributed and well to the day‘s fine musical programme. Most of those from outsiGe points felt that the Falls was worth a visit for the beauty of its civie square, its lawns, its attractive gardens, its beautiful flowers, shrubs and trees and its general beauty. There was, howâ€" ever, a big programme of interesting events, carried through despite the rain. Special interest centred in the baseball. Copper Cliff‘s great team played a combination of the Falls, Timmins and Haileybury, winning one game 10 to 4 and the other. 7 to 4. Football was another big drawing card, the Timmins team winning from Iroquois Falls 2 to 0. The Falls boys put up a surprisingly fine game and they certainly have some very clever soccer players in that paper town. Timmins will be delighted to see the Falls team playing football again. They play a very fine game. Mr. Craig, Toronto, refereed the match with his usual ability and fairness. In the big programme of athletic events Timmins and Schumacher athâ€" TROUBLE REPORTED 1N CGOBALT LIBERAL RANKS Eight of Executive Said to Have Resigned Over Mac,. Lang‘s Candidature. About 250 went over by special train from Timmins to Iroquois Falls to enjoy. the big day of sports. Anâ€" other three or four hundred visited the Falls by motor car during the day. It is estimated that fully 200 motor cars from the Porcupine made the trip to the Falls on Monday. Other parts of the North were about equally well represented, and, despite the unfavourable weather, the crowd was a large and wellâ€"satisfied one. Rain fell in the morning just about the time the train arrived. It also rained for a while in the afternoon, and towards evening it became very ecold. Part of the day was clear and and the programme was carâ€" ried through successfully. There was enough _ rain, â€" however, for the committee to be entitled to the $1,000 rain insurance taken. The parade was somewhat below expectations but the remainder of the events made up for this by their special interest. _ The committee in charge deserve the highâ€" est commendation for the excellent programme â€" prepared and _ carried through successfully. $ About 250 Go Over From Here by Special Train. Another Three or Four Hundred Motor to Iroquois Falls. Deâ€" spite Bad Weather, the Day Proves Most Enjoyable. > ITHnFp PORCUPINE ADVANCEF *Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Pare returned on Thursday evening last from a two weeks‘ visit to Montreal.\ Again this year Mr. John Massie‘s prizeâ€"winning Cocker Spaniels won honours at the National Exhibition at Toronto. **Topy,"‘ a registered lady of high pedigree in her class, won two first prizes and two seconds, â€"a high honour, indeed, as it cerâ€" tainly takes a decidedly good aniâ€" mal to win out at Toronto Exhibition where so many outstanding speciâ€" mens of canine perfection are exhibiâ€" ted. **Northern Belle,‘* another of Mr. Massie‘s fine spaniels, failed to qualify being reckoned as a little too fat fer.exhibition purposes. ‘‘hypocrites of the South." If elécted, he said, he would move to repeal the Doherty Act so that liquor could be brought into this country more freely. Mr. John Vanier, howâ€" ever, made the most pointed speech of the day. Mr. Vanier said that neither speaker had touched on what was really needed, but had gone over the same old tariff stuff and so on that had been haranged over for thirty years or more by abler men without settling the argument. ‘*What we want,‘‘ ‘said Mr. Vanier, ‘‘is a candidate with a policy for the North Land and for the workingman.‘‘ He also seored the speakers because they had accomplished nothing to better the lot of the workers in the gold camp. He announced that there would be a convention at Cochrane on Sept. 19th, the free and independent elecâ€" tors‘‘ of the riding to select a North Land candidate. He urged all to atâ€" tend and then to work together to elect the man chosen. Open air band concerts are always dependent upon the rain keeping off. Now they also require that the cold does not become too sharp. At the last open air band concert the bandsâ€" men suffered from the damp cold weather, the effects being felt afterâ€" wards. In case of a cold evening the band eoncert will have to be postâ€" poned. The indoor band concerts will be starting soon now in any case. TIMMINS DOG WON HIGH [ HONOURS AT TORONTO EX The Falls people did everything posâ€" sible in the way of hospitality for the visitors, and all attending the event had a good time and were well pleased indeed with the Falls. On account of the weather most of the crowd did not wait to return by the special. There was some diffiâ€" culty at first about honouring. the exâ€" eursion tickets on the regular trains, but this was eventually adjusted after North Bay had been called. In this, as in everything else, the Iroquois Falls people gave all possible assisâ€" tance. The special crowd was accomâ€" modated by adding a couple of coaches from the special to the reguâ€" lar train. Many stayed for the Pulp Sulâ€" phite Union Dance in the evening, and report a wonderfully good time. Play in the Monthly Medal Handiâ€" cap will start Saturday afternoon at 1.30 at the Timmins Golf Course. NO BAND CONCERT IF THE WEATHER PROVES COLD. letes made a good showing, winning many prizes. The prizes,iit may be said, were valuable and appropriate in all cases. In the Bandsmen‘s Race, W. Stanley won first, E. McGrath (Falls) second, and T. Stevens, third. The events were all well conducted and for the way the features were looked after the committeemen are eertainly to be praised to the limut. During the rain spells events were carried along in the big rink. Palmer‘s Shows were on hand and did a good business. A special novelty for the day was the â€" political©® ‘debate. .Mr. . John Vanier introduced the speakers who had twenty minutes each. Mr. C. V. Gallagher, Liberal candidate, said he had been a labouring man all his life and expressed his sympathy with the workers. He touched. on the tariff, the National Railways, the unemâ€" ployment problem, the rate of exâ€" change, etce., and showed how the King Government â€" had â€" handled _ matters cleverly to the advantage of the counâ€" try. Mr. Ray ()’\elll Conservative candidate, combatted these claims, blaming the King Government for the present poor conditions. He said that the people of the North had voted strongly against the O.T.A., but had been overâ€"ridden in this by the MONTHLY MEDAL HANDICAP ON SATURDAY AFTERNOON, TIMMINS, ONTARIO, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 10th, 1925 The next game at Timmins in the Ontario Cup series will be on Saturday of next week, Sept. 19th, the team likeâ€" ly to be here being the Ulster United. The Ulsters, after a couple of drawn games with the Allâ€"Scots last week defeated the Sceottish lads 4 to 2, though many are ready to concede the Allâ€"Scots as the better team so far as football is concerned. However, by one of those irresistible finishes, the Ulsters triumphed. The seore at halfâ€" time was 2 to 1 in favour of the Allâ€" Sceots, With their vietory the Ulsters advance to the point where they play the Davenport Albions for the chamâ€" pionship of the Toronto District. The general opinion is that the Ulsters will have a fairly easy win. Ulster vs. Davenport match is to be played at Toronto on Sept. 12th. The winners come to Timmins on Naturday of next week, Sept,. 19th. â€" Mr. J, Craig, of Ulsters Likely to be the Toronto Team to Come Here The annual meeting of the Northâ€" ern Ontario Associated Boards of Trade will be held at Cochrane on Thursday of next week, Sept. 17th. One chief item of business will be the election of officers for the ensuing year, and from the fine record of useâ€" fulness made by the _ Associated Boards during the past year it would appear to be good policy to reâ€"elect the present officers in a body. They certainly have given generous and effective _‘This is perhaps especially true of the very popular and efficient president, Mr. Alex Dewar, of TIroquois Falls He has given time, energy, ability and experiâ€" ence to the work and accomplished much. . Resolutions of appreciation passed at recent meetings to the Presiâ€" dent and Secretary were not formal or routine matters, but were sincere expressions of the recognition of genâ€" erous and capable efforts put forward by these officers in particular and the executive in general for the advantâ€" age of the North Land. There will undoubtedly be many delegates preâ€" sent at the annual meeting next week who would be pleased indeed to have the present officers carry on their excellent work for another year. An interesting and helptul meeting is expected, with representatives from all over the North Land. Cochrane has made full preparation for the event, and Cochrane is well known for its good hospitality on such occaâ€" sions.
