If Mr. Bourassa is simply looking for notoriety he is getting plenty of it.

Whose platform was it that Mr. Borden launched »some time aco? Mr. Maclean is going into the Lon- don election as a supporter of public ownership. He will support the la- hour men as against the conservative candidate. He is bound to be in op- position somewhere. A conservative stalwart in Reina, at the close of the recent provincial convention, alleged that his party might be sure of one man in the next federal election. No wonder the air was chilly when Mr. Borden passed through the province rocently. Mr. Turgeon and Mr. Bourassa will mow meet in Belleville, which is Mr. Turgeon's constituency.

New Fishing Port. Next month will witness the open- ing of a new herring port for the east coast of Southwold, which used to be a considerable tradine and fish- ing centre when Yarmouth was in- significant and Lowestoft was of no account. The harbor entrance silted up, however, and the port declined. The corporation has in late years been urged hy the owners of Scoftish herring boats to revive the former glory of Southwold, and ventually a bold enterprise was decided upon. The harbor rights were purchased from the trustees for a nominal sum, and arrangements made with a com- pany for the lenthéning of the exist ing piers; the construction of a con- crgte quayhead has been carried out. a market built, and the harbor is be- ing deepened to eighteen feet. Toward the epost of these works the treasury made a grant of £15,000. The under- taking means the provision of "an additional harbor on the Suffolk coast, where one was graatly needed. and also the further development of the herring industry. ---- Junk Dealer's Case.
