Macphail, M.P., as Federal candidate for third time in Southeast Grey, and Farquhar Oliver of Arteniesia township as Provincial candidate for South Grey constituen- cy. Both nominations were unan- j imous. For the Dominion House no other name than Miss Macphail's was I suggested. John Whiteford was in j the chair, and at the outset" the Sec- retary, M. E. Murray, read a telegram ' from Miss Macphail forecasting an | election in September, stating she was ! not going away and that the U.F.O. I had better choose a candidate for the { House of Commons at the same time to save a second convention. A num- j ber wished to defer a Pro\'incial nom- ination to a later date, but by a big majority this was overruled. Nine were nominated for the Legis- ] lature: Farquhar R. Oliver d$ .A.rte- ) mesia; R. D. Carruthers, Euphrasia; ' George M. L^eson, Normanby, the last Provincial candidate; A. F. Pedlar, Artemeaia; Dr. R. Carefoot, Markdale; R.

Oliver of the O.D.R., and is '. a nephew of the Premier of British I Columbia, Hon. John Oliver. He stated that ke stood firmly behind the O.T.A. and against the way the Ferg- uson Government had handled the liquor question. A motion by Rv -Aitchenson and W. Hunter, to place a Federal candidate in the field that day, was enthusiasti- cally carried. Two Proton delegates quickly nominated Miss Macphail, and amid great applause from all sides the delegates announced they wanted no further nominations. Secretary Mirrray was authorized to wire Miss Macphail at Ottawa that she was the unanimous choice. Shepherdson, auctioneer.

Seventy years ago to-day (July 8, 1856) the founders of the Bank of Toronto opened the doors of the bank. Our histot7 has been cicwcly allied with the history of the Dominion; our faith in Canada never has flagged; our development has gone arm-in-arm with the forward-looking spirit that sees the greatest era of progress just ahead.
