Assistance is rendered by the Govâ€" ernment in the way of cutting trails, cleaning streams and building roads, in order to afford access to mining claims or areas, and where a district proves its ore deposits to be of suffiâ€" cient value and extent to warrant the expenditure, it is provided with railâ€" way communication. The Temiskaâ€" ming Testing Laboratories at Cobalt are equipped to sample ores, and proâ€" vision has been made for the purchase of gold ore. «J. A. Mcelnnis, described the three meetings as in the nature of a *‘ merâ€" ryâ€"goâ€"round.‘‘ It was after eleven o‘clock before the Timmings meeting concluded, but the interest of pracâ€" tically all appeared to be close. The chief speakers of the evening were Hon. P. J. A. Cardin, former Minister of Marine and Fisheries in the King Cabinet, and Mr. Dean Kester, of Timmins, the latter making a remarkâ€" ably effective campaign speech and holding the keenest attention of hus audience. â€" Hon. Mr. Cardin‘s address was considered one of the best of the «ampaign here, and in both English and French, he proved eloquent and able and made a hit with the audiâ€" ence. _ There were many prominent Liberals and Labour men on the platâ€" form, including a number of ladies. Although it was late in the evening before gr Joseph Bradette, the L1â€" beral cndidate in this riding, was able to be present, he was given a very â€" hearty reception. He spoke briefly but effectively in both French and English. There was great enâ€" thusiasm when he was presented with a. handsome bouquet of flowers as he commenced to speak, the presentation being made by a charming little girl. Mr. Kester dealt exhaustively with the whole political situation as he saw it, touching on the customs scandal, the constitutional issue, the budget, old age pensions, and other matters. His able address was freâ€" quently interrupted by applause as For lists of publications, geological maps and reports, copies of the minâ€" ing laws, and other information apply to An attractive field is offered to the prospector in _ Northern Ontario.

He emphasized the trade balance in Canada‘s favour, the fact that Canada‘s dollar was at par, the changing of a deficit in the National Rdxl\\ ays to a surplus, the reduction of taxes, postage, etc., as evidence of the ability and success of the King {Hovernment. Hon. Mr. Meighen had slipped into ‘the seat of Government by the back door, was Mr. Kester‘s way of putting it. He dealt exhausâ€" tively with the constitutional issue, so called, quoting Bourinot and other dllthOl'ltles to upholdâ€"his case. He was given ‘a great round of applause as he cmu‘lude(l a clever presentation of the Liberal Party case. Mr. Nelson (Green touched on the customs scandal, the constitutional issue and the tariff. ‘*The Conservaâ€" tives don‘t dare to put their high tariff into force,"‘ he said.

RKay O‘Neill (D) Likewise, I would continue to oppose the proposal of the Hon. Mr. Dunning, Exâ€"Minister of Railways, to divert the National Transâ€" continental train from Montreal, via Capreol, Long Lac and Nakina, rather than as now routed, via Cochrane and the National Transcontiâ€" nental Railway. (E) I would insist on the immediate payment of the Subsidy for the extension of the T. N. north to tidewater. (F) To press for a settlement of the question of Taxation between the Municipalities and the Railways.

WAY POLICY. THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO said that the Liberals were proud of the coâ€"operation they had received from the Progressives last session,. as it proved the party‘s effort and sueâ€" cess in welding togther all classes and sections. Hon. Mackenzie King, the speaker said, was one of the greatest economists in the would, and recogâ€" nized as such. Brief reference was made to the tariff question, Hon. Mr. Cardin claiming that the Conservaâ€" tives were insincere in their tariff talk as they had never increased the Liberâ€" al tariff when they had opportunity. Speaking of election prospects Hon. Mr. Cardin prophesied that the four counties of Northern Ontario would return Iiberal members. â€" He said that the Liberals would retain their majority in Quebec, and perhaps gain two more. of the four seats there, while also making gains in other proâ€" vinces. He made strong objection to what he thought was an attempt to confuse Federal and Provincial issues. He thought they should be kept abâ€" solutely separate and dealt with soleâ€" ly on their respective merits. â€" He argued that on the tariff and other issues Hon. Mr. Meighen had one platform for one section and another for another, while Hon. Mr. King preached the same doctrine everyâ€" where, he said. Touching on the customs scandal, Hon. Mr. Cardin said that smuggling exists, and will exist, under all (Govâ€" ernments. He said the only way to eliminate smuggling was by takmtv aâ€" way the tariff wall. The Lxhcmls. he claimed, had not been worse than others, and Hon. Mackenzie King had made an honest effort to clean up the situation. Using the ‘*you‘re anâ€" other‘‘ type of argument, Hon. Mr. Cardin quoted cases where the path of justice had ‘been obstructed by Conservative Cahinet Ministers. In the matter of employment, he said conditions were better than last year and getting better all the time. **Where is there a country,"‘ he askâ€" ed, ‘‘that has recovered more quickly than Canada from the effects of the great war.‘‘ He touched on the imâ€" provement in the service and earnings of the National Railways, on the conâ€" stitutional issue and on other political questions. He concluded a long and powerful address with an earnest plea for support for the cause of Liberâ€" alism and the candidate here, Mr. Joseph Bradette. **Our opponents are always talking about the United States and its opâ€" portunaties.‘‘ said Hon. Mr. Cardin, ** but I am proud of Canada and ready to compare it with the United States at any time. _ Although we had a greater part in the war, we need not be afraid of the future. We have great material resources, and intelliâ€" gent people and our country will grow in prosperity and advancement.‘* Hon. Mr. Cardin also spoke briefly in French, his stirring address rousâ€" ing hearty enthusiasm. Mr. Joseph Bradette spoke briefly in English and in French, stating that he was out to fight for the Liberal Party and the North Land. ‘‘They have called me traitor, rebel, Red, Nationalist and bolshevik, but I am glad they haven‘t termed me a Tory,"‘ he said. He emphasized the fact that he was loyal to Canada and to the Empire, and that was why he was strongly for the Liberal policies. He promised that if he was elected he would give his best efforts for this North Land and for Canada. Mr: Bradette also took occasion to pay very feeling tribute to the late Mr. J. N. Tremblay, who died sudâ€" denly after speaking at a meeting in Mr Bradette‘s interests some (Ll_\b (B) Federal Subsidy, to the Provincial Department of Health to aid in the financing incident to greater social legislation. Referring particularly to the problem of SILICOSIS, victims of which, in my opinion, should be entitled to monthly compensation, and Vocational training, to prepare them for more suitable occupation. been solemnly promised by the Hon. Arthur Meighen in his speeches in the course of the present campaign, and promised to me personally. 8. Improvement of the French River to establish water route to North Bay, and thus reduce cost of coal and of supplies used in the North Country. Maintaining that no interests, class or section of this great Doâ€" minion should profit to the detriment of any other interest, class, or section, and with unfaltering faith in the future of this splendid North Country, I stand for a ‘‘Canada First‘‘ policy, and appeal for the sake of Unity and Harmony, for the generous support of the Electors of North Temiskaming on September 14th, 1926. (C) Similarly, under the terms of the Subsidy, THE MOTHER‘S ALLOWANCE ACT, should be made sufficiently extensive to cover the case of a Widow with one child. (D) Coâ€"operation for the investigation of our Northern Ontario Coal deposits. 7. I stand for the fundamental and constitutional rights of every citizen to petition Parliament, which right was repudiated under the late Administration. 6. To fight for a more intensive Colonization programme, rather than for a policy of immigration which, as at present merely results in numerical inflation and unrest. I favour immigration on the basis of relationship between those applying and the wouldâ€"be immigrant. (E) A fiftyâ€"fifty bonus from the Dominion and Province as sugâ€" gested by the Iron Ore Committee for the beneficiation of our Iron} Ore, which will enable us to develop our Iron deposits and establish a great basic Iron and Steel Industry in the North Country. 4. I pledge myself to strive for the immediate enactment of an ‘‘OLD AGE PENSION BILL,‘‘ fostered and financed unconditionally by the Dominion of Canada, providing for the payment of a decent living allowance to all rneedy citizens, who have attained a reagonably ripe old age. 5. To have on the Statutes of Canada a Fair Wage Clause covering all Government contracts, not as it now stands, a delusion under Orderâ€"inâ€"Council, and in ultimate analysis nonâ€"enforcible. The meeting concluded with cheers for Hon. Mackenzie King, Hon. Mr. Cardin, and Mr. Bradette, and with the singing of **0O, Canada." TREASURER‘S SALE OF LAND FOR TAXES Mrs. R. B,.
