for years now wc have had judges imposing damages upon the owners of trains which happened to tie with motorists in a race forttcross ing this wc felt was the essence of injustice our opinion always was that if there was anything let of an individual who was insane enough to try to beat a tram to a crossing and didn t that it should be cither locked up or further punished and that whoever was in char of the i sliauld he commended for having emphasized the peril of such competition hut that never happened it never seemed to occur to our judges that the motor car might run into the train always the tram ran into the mdtor car and the owners of the train paid but at last wc have found a just judge up in belleville one john burns tried to beat a c p r freight to a crossing and did in winning his race however he turned a switch which detailed the train piled up 10 cars caused damages of 200 000 and killed a brakeman so he has gone to jail for three months the railway own ers turning like the worm brought a charge of criminal negligence against burns the crown helped the charge the judge upheld it it is an admirable precedent if the people who try such exploits in i lunacy knew that they wre going to be punished whether they won lost or tied it might result in fewer crossing fatalities ottawa journal town improvement another example of co operation town loyalty and hclpfulncsb

three cornered election in this riding the liberal and progressive platforms are identical enough on the main issue to have them join forces in any constituency these parties offer the only possibility of getting the liquor question out of politics it is therefore the only reasonable thing to do to join forces on this issue and proyide the electors with anvopportunity of expressing their up proval or disapproval of the liquor control act as handled in politics both mr hillmer and mr blake lock are well known in the county both are res id ents of oakville so both will be best acquainted id the southern part of the county the election in this county will undoubtedly resolve itself on the tern pe ranee issue when the temperance question was voted on apart from pdiiups ilulton invariably piled up a substantial dry majority if the temperance sentiments predominate with the electors over the party principles the outcome of the election would see a change in the representation of thiscounty by a conservative member the question here is clear cut the joining up of the political purtics has made the issue any easy one to decide the first itep is to pet the temperance- question out of politics premier ivrguson has declared that us long us he is in power thct w le no plcbiseitcs both the liberal and progressive parties have declared in favor of plebis
