MASON AS CANDIDATE '(Continued from Page 1) township, Robert Brown, Seagrave and Grant Christie; Scu- gog Island, Peter Hood; Port Perry, A. B. Cochrane, The Nominees . This part of the meeting over, ! a committee was appointed to ex- amine credentials, and the organ- ization of the nomination body was proceeded with In all, ten names were, placed in nomination, as fol- lows: F. L. Mason, Oshawa; R, D, Pres- ton, Oshawa; Dr, James Moore, Brooklin; John Stacey, Oshawa; Ernie Marks, Oshawa; Dr, Cart- wright, Pickering; George Scott, Claremont; Hon, William Smith, Columbus: H, Newman, Dunbar- ton; Dr, T, E, Kaiser, Oshawa, Withdrawals Dr, Kaiser and Mr, Newman im- mediately withdrew their names from the list, saying they had no intention of allowing their names to stand, but pledging themselves to support whoever received the nomination, George Scott, of Claremont also made a similar dec- laration, : Hon, William Smith Hon. William Smith, of Colum- bus, a former representative of this riding at Ottawa, was given a great ovation as he rose to speak, He paid tribute to Premier Fer- , guson whom he had known since a boy in Ottawa as a man who had made good, Could the same be : quent at every post during the past few weeks The Hon, William placed little faith in plebiscites. Sir Oliver Mowat, he recalled, had one which carried with 80,000 majority, but it took eight years to straighten things out before the Privy Coun- cil. A plebiscite was a means of avoiding an issue which should be settled by the government in pow- er. Bir Wilfrid Laurier took one but found that it Was not sufficient and Hon, George Ross got 96,000 votes on a plebiscite but declared that the vote was not sufficent, The difference between the Liberal and Conservatye partes was that the Conservatives faced responsi- bility, [Touching briefly on the pro- hibition question, Hon, William Smith recalled that Bir James Whit- ney reduced the number of licensed' 'hotels from 1600 to 1200-- a pro- hibition step which accomplished something, The province of On- tario today was better under Prem- ier Ferguson's government than it ever was. It was true that the government was spending a Jot of money but it was getting value for every dollar, Hon, William Smith announced that he would retire in favor of the candidate chosen by the Convention, In 1927, when he could have been elected in the riding by ac- clamation, Mr, Sinclair brought his forces against him, He did not owe Mr, Sinclair anything today, and would loyally support the can- didate of the Conservative Party in this election, Chairman Ir, Kaiser reminded Hon, Wm, Smith that he had some- thing more today than time and ability, and' that was the love and affection of every man in Ontario County who ever knew him. Dr, Kaiser added that he never went to Ottawa without some person en- quiring for the Hon, Wm, Smith, Dr, Cartwright, Pickering, and Ernie Marks, Oshawa, also with drew, and pledged their support to the nominee of the convention, John Stacey John Stacey, Mr, Sinclair's op- ponent in the last provincial elec- tion, stated that the Ferguson gov- ernment was one of which every- body should he proud, In fre- visits to the Parliament Buildings, as representative of the government in the riding, he had found the ministers courteous ana earnest, They deserved the sup- port of all, Mr, Stacey declined the nomination in favor of any candidate nominated. The Con- ; servative party in this riding was i going to win this election, he em- { phatically declared, i gument in the last election "The big ar- was ! Government Control, and my op- position was in favor of prohibi- tion," Mr. Stacey remarked, This | election there would be two Gov- | | 1 Soish. 8 y foe es 48% pr Model 45 , . . $293.25 with tubes Radio-Phonograph ona braho8.25 with tubes - ernment Control supporters in the field for the Liberal party was in favor of that measure, and its lead- er had declared that he knew how to control better than Ferguson ever knew, Since the last election, however, Mr, Sinclair had looked the situation over. He saw the fate of Sir William Hearst on a prohibition platform, If Hon. Mr, Ferguson came out for prohibition, the prohibitionists would treat him the same as they did Hearst. All were in favor of prohibition but the ability to bring it about was not confined to any party, Liquor could not be got rid of although the desire for its abolition was widespread. Mr, Stacey sald that Mr, Sinclair was showing him- self to be very weak. 'Had I been an advocate of prohibition I would have stood by my convictions, but I doubt if Mr. Sinclair has any." declared Mr, Stacey. The speaker appealed' for the strongest support of the present government, Thanks to Mr, Stacey The chairman stated that the Conservative party in this riding was indebted to Mr, Stacey who went into the last election fight which looked from the beginning as if it was loaded against him, but he fought and finished as a man, On Dr. Kaiser's suggestion, Mr, Stacey was given a standing vote of confidence and appreciation, Dr, James Moore Dr, James Moore, re-elected pres- SRT = "They work while you sleep" Cascara is Good for the System | What do you do when a sly, gish system 'tells you the bowels need a little helph The best thing yet discovered for the purpose is still the little candy Cascaret! Take one when- ever the liver and bowels are not functioning as they should. Cascarets are pleasing to the palate, and pleasant in their ac- tion. You eat them just like candy, They work while you sleep, Gentle, but thorough. Cas- carets don't stir-up the stomach or upset the system. But they cleanse the entire thirty feet of bowels in one comfortable, thor- ough action that leaves the sys- tem clean and sweet; leaves you with an untainted jbreath, un- coateG tongue, and clear head, Cascarets are made of cascara --long regarded one of the most beneficial laxatives known to med- ical science, They are sweetened with pure cane sugar and flav- ored with real licorice. Children love them. So do most grown- ups! Why take anything harsh when constipation threatens? Whenever a dull headache, las- situde, or sick stomach with loss of appetite warns you of poor elimination, a Cascaret or two is the most. harmless form of help you could give a lagging system. Take a candy Cascaret tonight and see how fine you'll feel in the morning--and for days after.

Dr. Moore took the members of the Liberal Party severely to task for their continuous attempts to bhe- little the Conservative party, One man speaking at a Toronto Club on Thursday had insultingly charg- ed the Conservatives with unintel- ligence he said, Members of the Conservative party would compare most favorably with those of the Liberal party for intelligence and a little better, Dr, Moore created unusual in terest when he produced a letter written by Dr, Mathers, of Port Perry, who stated that in the last election he had voted for Mr, Sin- clair three years ago because of the promises he had made and he- cause he felt that Mr, Sinclair was sincere in his undertakings. He led the members of the Liberal- Conservative party to believe that he was sincere but now he had thrown aside his promises and bro- ken the planks of his party vlat- form, Dr, Mathers ended up by stating that he would never again Vote for a man who had betrayed the faith and trust placed in him. Dr. Moore declared himself and party as ardent temperance people, He pledged himself to work whole- heartedly for the nominee of the convention, R. D. Preston R. D, Preston, of Oshawa® was the last of the nominees to with- draw, In doing so, he made a stir- ring address, in 'which he charged the Liberals with hypocrisy in their attitude towards the 'liquor ques- tion, If all the Liberals would tear up their liquor permits; he said, there would he a decrease of at least one-third in the sales of lgq- uor, He paid a tribute to Premier Ferguson, and pointed to the great banquet held in Toronto on Sep- tember 19, as an indication of the high position he held in the hearts and minds of the Conservatives of the whole province of Ontario, Mr, Preston said that Oshawa was organized for the election as it had never been organized be- fore, and he pledged himself, as chairman of the Conservatives of that city to bend every effort to- wards the election of the nominee of the convention, F. L, Mason Acclaimed The name of Frank L. Mason being the only one left hefore the convention, Dr, T, BE, Kaiser asked the meeting to give expression of its approval of the nomination ho- ing unanimously tendered to him, This was done by the whole hody of delegates standing and giving a long round of hearty cheers for the nominee. Dr, Kaiser, on be- half of the convention then ten- dered its unanimous nomination to Mr, Mason. Mr, Mason's Speech In his speech of acceptance, Mr, Mason gave his slogan as "High- ways and Hydro," and spoke of tho pride which the people of Ontario felt in these institutions and in the institutions of education and ro- ligion, He said that the people of Ontario were so keenly interested in having the best in education that no party would dare to ao anything which tended to destroy or injure the educational institu- tions of the province. Referring to the church, he spoke, of it as an- other great institution which was essential to the life of the province, for without the splendid influence of the church, the advancement of Ontario would be a forlorn hope. : Hydro Development In referring to the hydro which had been so highly developed in Ontario Mr Mason declared that he would not he satisfied until every corner of the province was served by this great institution. It was the conservative government who fostered and developed hydro in Ontario, stated Mr, Mason, until it has become so great a power in the province, this respect, Mr, Mason declared he was for more highways and ime proved roads throughout the whole province as well as his own riding, The Consebvative government had done a great deal in building these roads stated Mr, Mason and would continue .to do so, In referring to Mr, W, E, N, Sinclali's policy of taking the portion of the load of paying for these roads off the dif- ferent municipalities it was Mr, Mason's contention that this would be dangerous, It was his opinion that should this be done every county would fight for many miles of improved roads at the cost of the government and without any consideration for the expense He felt it right that the municipalities should retain some responsibility, Supports Temperance Mr, Mason declared himself a true supporter of temperance and stated that he had voted for pro- hibition at every plebiscite; that he had always been an advocate for temperance and would stand by it, Under the Ferguson liquor law it was -the candidates contention that it had provided the best solu- tion of the liquor question so far, With regard to the different com- munities benefitting by this law, Mr, Mason claimed that the mun- icipality of Port Perry was 500 per cent, improved over the con- ditions during the time of the O. T.A, The candidate declared that the conditions under the L.C.A. were not perfect and that he would not rest until it had been improved, He was prepared to support ad- vanced temperance legislation com- ing from any source, In referring to the prohibition meeting held in Oshawa on the previous evening, the candidate declared' himself as surprised at the stand taken by that party in supporting his oppon- ent on the liquor question before his own statement on the question of prohibition, however, Mr. Mason declared that his faith in that great Institution, the church, would never be shaken, Provincial Finances In dealing with the question of. finances and the statement made by the party leaders which differ- ed to a great extent as to the amount of the debt of the Prov- ince of Ontario, Mr, Mason declar- od that it was merely a question of gross and net debt, Every mun- feipality forced to spend a large L Thick.wavy hair !

Then as you draw the bristles through your hair, see how the scalp is toned and soathed. See how the hair becomes softer, easier to manage; how its natural color is brought: out; how it takes on new brilliance and lustre. Danderine dissolves the crust of dandruff; helps stop falling hair; keeps hair and scalp healthy; en- courages the growth of long, silky, abundant hair. Five million bottles used a year, That proves Danderine's cfiectiveness!

OBHAWA DANY, TIMES, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 28, 1929 much larger scale, He stated that a large percentage of the money spent by the government was rev- enue producing and should not be confused with direct debts. It was this confusion of the two debts that caused the Liberal leader, W. E. N. Sinclair to state that the Ferguson government had piled an immense debt against the treasury of the province, With reference to the education- al system as controlled under the Ferguson government Frank Ma- son declared that no body of publie men would make any move to de- stroy the fine system that had been built up, Responsible government would end, stated the candidate, if Mr, Sinclair's policy of supervising the educational system apart from the government, It was the speak- er's contention tht only by con- trolling education by the govern- ment could the proper balance be maintained and the direct influence of the public be felt, Need of Organization The Conservative party uever met defeat in this riding when fit was properly organized, stated the candidate, With regard to the con- vention, Mr, Mason claimed that it was the finest and most enthus- iastic ever held in the town hall of Whitby, In looking over the audience the speaker saw many of his old friends who had supported him for many years as mayor of Oshawa, in the school board and as county councillors, Many of these supporters were from Osh- awa while he also saw a number of friends and chums of years past from Port Perry where he had lived at one time, It was the fight of the people, but not his battle, stated the candidate, and it was up to its supporters to get out and fight for the party, In view of the fact that many prominent conservatives had been chosen as candidates for the grand old riding of South Ontario on that very platform, Mr, Mason claim- ed that he felt humbled when he compared himself to these men. First last and always he was a supporter of Premier Ferguson, and of the Conservative party, and on that basis he appealed to the electors of South Ontario for their support, Mr, Mason was given another ovation when he resumed his seat, and the meeting closed with three hearty cheers for the King, for the candidate, and the leader of the party, the Hon, G, Howard Fer- guson, RURAL SCHOOLS fi ANNUAL FAI 2 wi (Continued from Page 3) Lewington, Marguerite McRobinson and Mary LeRoy, of Union School No. 0.
