Ason considers he has an excellent chance of winning, as evidence of the keenness of his supporters he mentions the fact that a number of electors have chartered a motor coach to bring them back from holidaying at Brighton to vote. He also says a number of Labor families have decided to forego their holidays on account of the election. Hopes Not High « Liberal hopes aré not running very high, although it is thought many conservatives, who ure not pleased with Sir John Ferguson's protectionist views, may support the Liberal candidate, Graham Patterson. The general opinion seems to he that the conservatives despite their domestic dispute will retain the seat, The stoppage in thu cotton in- dustry is expected to tell heavily against the Cnservative candidate in Preston, Dr. A. D, Howitt, Poll- ing takes place there on July 31. Dr. Howitt Complains a number of Labor canvassers have been de- claring he advised the workers to accept the wages reduction' pro- posed by the employers. This the candidate indignantly denies. He says he'is opposed to any reduction in wages because he does not be- lieve lowering the wages will cure the {ills from which the cotton industry is suffering. Tempers have become somewhat frayed in the Preston campaign owing to the bitterness arising out of Sir William Jowett's conversion from Liberalism to Labor. The Labor agent predicts the Attorney- General will obtain a full 100 per cent Labor vote because the La- bor ranks have been solidified by the personal attacks on Sir Wil- liam, The i tion, in portance of this by-elec- hich the 'third candidate CAN'T SLEEP? #Fruit-a-tives" good health Are you tind?

Communist in Field At Leeds the fight is between a Laborite, James Miller, a local sol- icitor and Deputy Lord Mayor of the city, and a Communist, Wil- liam Brain, an iron-moulder from Newcastle, Outside Brain's headquarters is displayed a banner with the de- vee: "'Class against Class. The Rob- bed versus the Robbed." He also issued as a manifesto a full-blood- ed Communist program including "The complete transformation of Society and 'the creation of a free, equal workers' Socialist Republic." In a letter to Mr. Miller, publish- ed to-day Premier Macdonald de- clares: "It is all to the good that the very real issue between the Labor and Communist party should be fought out in the open instead of in the underground mines and shops in which the Communists generally choose to work. The Labor Party is based on Socialist principles and is working to build up a free and equal society very different from what exists at pre- sent, } "But it believes its aim can be achieved and can only be achieved by Democratic .and constitutional means. We believe neither in revolutions nor dictatorship, but in Parliament." C. N.

One in- teresting feature is the increase in the minimum pension allowances from $200 to $300 per annum. The pension committee will con- sist of nine members, seven of whom will be officers of the com- pany, including the chief officer in charge of pensions - in this in- stance, W. L. Robb, vice-president and the chief officers in charge of respectively, legal affairs, 1uain- tenance of operation traftic, fin- ance, purchases and stores and the cheif medical officer. In addition two members are to be elected from time to time from the ranks of the general chairman of the rec- ognizeq labor organizations by vote of these general chairmen. The head office of the pension commit~ tee will be at Montreal, : Continuous Service The rules and regulations, after explaining that service provides for employment in the various activi ties of the railway and its compon- ent companies, steamships and tele- graphs, states continuous employ- nient will govern the pension allow- ance, so that after any departure from service and a re-engagement their services for pension purposes will count only from date of re- entering the company's employ. 'fhe pension is an annual allow- «nce calculated at the rate of vue per cent. for. each year of service cn the highest average rate of the employe's wages or pay during any 10 consecutive years of his service. As an example of the manner in which this works, the following is quoted: "An employe in continuous service from the age of 25 years to 656 with the highest average rate of wages between 40 and 50 of §1,- 000 per annum would receive 40 hundredths of $1,00, or $400 per annum." War Service Provision is made for the com- mittee to consider war service in the army, navy or air forces of the Allies during the Great War, as not causing' a break in employment, It is also provided that credit will be given for periods 'en which em- ployes are absent on leave while employed as general chairman, leg- islative representatives, or any other higher official positions ap- proved by the directors, of organ- izations of labor operating on the lines of the railway and recogmiz- ed by the directors.

Kirby 16s of 269 Stinson crescent, aged 40 years, was drowned in the abandoned filtering basin on Beach road late yesterday afternoon. Speeding to the scene in an auto, his father-in-law, Geo, Askew of 459 Bay street north, sustained painful lacerations and Alfred Lawson of 37 Tisdale street north, who drove him from Hamilton, was seriously hurt, when the car left the road. Both men were rushed to the general hospital Askew was shaken up and badly cut, but will soon be about. Law- son sustained fracture of the ribs, possible internal injuries and a deep scalp laceration. His condi- tion was reported to be serious at a late hour, Mrs, Pass, young widow of the victim, is visiting in Duluth, Minn., with hér two-year- old daughter. Early in the afternoon Pass left for the beach as guest of Jas. H. Delaplante and family of 267 Stinson crescent, They stopped at the filtering basin to bathe and after Pass had heen absent for 20 minutes they became concerned and made inquiries. It was feared that he had gone down. Despite the fact that there were scores of people about the place, no one saw him or heard cries for help. According to reports there are no grappling irons or other facilities at the basin and it was over an hour before efforts could be made to search for the body. Thos. Tanbury of 1221, Beach boulevard brought the remains to the surface. Chief Taplin also as- sisted in the grappling operations. Prostrated with grief, Delaplante communicated with Askew and he immediately started for the water front, As he was unnerved, Mr. Lawson who was with him at the time, volunteered to drive Askew to the beach, They were travelling north on a gravel road which runs into the Beach highway near the pumping station, The car struck a small bridge and the rebound threw the auto out of control. It crashed into the ditch with great force and both men were thrown headlong through the windshield. The drowning was the second at the filtering basin, FURIOUS ELEPHANTS OF SOUTH AFRICA Herd is Unique in Wild Ani- mal Life of World London--South Africa possesses a herd of elephants that is unique among animal life in any part of the world. The elephants are dwarf size, and scientists contend that they have adapted their stature to accord with their surroundings--a gradual process over a period of 10,000 years or thereabouts. This famous but vicious-tempered Addo elephant--a conspicuous pro- duct of his South African environ- ment--is again on the warpath, and is creating favorable circumstances for his own extermination. In order to preserve the herd, which has a great zoological value, a huge re- serve exists--40 miles long by 20 miles wide--about 30 miles from Port Elizabeth. It is the only reserve in the Union where the clephant is protected. Tt has been his home for 10,000 years--a romantic piece of A. E.

Scrub Elephant As a consequence of this environ- ment the wild beasts have themselves become scrub--they are smaller in stature than any others of their kind; broader in girth, to enable them to force their way through the dense bush, and 70 per cent of them are without tusks. Less than 20 years ago there were 200 in the herd, and during seasons of drought they left their reserve in scarch of water--tearing 'up fences, draining the farmers' dams dry, and taking toll of human life wherever it crossed their path. In 50 years one farmer estimated his individual loss- es at over £6,000. The tempers of the farmers be- came as vicious as those of the ecle- phants, with the result that the authorities decided to exterminate the elephants, A well-known big game hunter-- Colonel Pretorious--was given a con- tract to wipe them out. When they had been thinned to 60 or 70 it was feared that South Africa would lose the specimen unless a halt were call- ed in the killing process. In twenty years the Addo elephant has again grown dangerous . Lack of water has driven him on to the farm- ing lands, and angry farmers have given the authorities an ultimatum that unless they drive the animals back to their reserve--ten miles away --they will be shot at sight--a right possessed by the farmers, But the elephant will not return to the room full of Flit vapbr, closing doors and windows so it will have full Flie also 'kills mosquitoes, roaches, bed bugs and ants.
