I'he farmers are out for it heart and soul, and people in all walks of life tre supporting it. On Wednesday afternoon, Mr. Mae- Kay addressed a meeting at Odessa, a ig was held in the evening. Both meetings were well attended. I'he leader of the opposition feels very much encouraged bver the way in which the reciprocity question has bern received. He is out on a three weeks' tour, and he says that every place he has been so far, has given the question hearty support. Mr. MacKay was given a warm wel- come by a number of prominent citi- zens, upon his arrival, One of the first citizens to grasp his hand was W. F. Nickle, M.P.P. The latter had a meetin the few minutes' interesting chat with the | literal leader. At one o'clock, Mr. MacKay was tendered a luncheon at the Fromtenac Club, by leading liberals of the city and county. A large number of farmers came in from the county to atlend the after- noon meeting, at the court house, which opened at two o'clock. Owing to the fact that the crossing is bad from the islands, it was feared that only a small number would be able to get over for the meeting. Mr. MacKay speaks at Nunbury Thursday night. Among those who lunched with Mr. MacKay were: Dr. Currie (Picton), Messrs. J. McD, Mowat, Dr. J. JJ. Harty, R. E. Kent, John McKay, J. 6. Flliott, KE. A. Weller, R. Vair, R. H. Fair and J. Baxter.

WALSO DIES | IN| | Born in Kingston in 1852--Had| Brilliant Career--Devoted Life to! Army and Saw Active Service inl Canadian North-West, : SOLDIER MONTREAL, VETERAN | The death occurred in Montreal, oni Wednesday afternoon, of one of Can | ada's most distinguished and experi enced soldieds, in the person of Major- General Jatties Frederick Wilson, whe succuimnbed to ill-health which had af fected him for several years past. Gen- eral Wilson had practically devoled his life to military matters, and had fought for the empire in two cam- puigns, the Uordon relief expedition to the Soudan, and the North-West re bellion m 1555-6. He was born at Kingston, in 15852, his father being a dry goods merchant here. After educa- tion at Trinity College School and I'rinity College, Turonto, the deceased | when nineteen years of age, joined the 17th Battalion as an ensign. The fol- lowing year, 1572, he was appointed second lieutenant in the Kmgston Field Battery, and in 1574 was pro- moted lieutenant in "A" Battery. In 1877 he was promoted captain, and won his majority in 1883. In 1884 he was transferred to the imperial army, and was sent to Egypt, where Le served under Viscount Wolseley in the expedition sent out for the relief of | General Gordon at Khartoum. He served in several engagements during | this expedition, and was then recalled ito Canada om the outbreak of the | North-West rebellion. | He returned to Canada via England, {taking charge of a party of invalided ed wounded soldiers. While in Eng- {land he was presented to Queen Vic- |toria and accorded the Egyptian war {medal and clasps and also the Khe |dive's star. | On his return from the North-West jcampaign the deceased continued his service with the regular forces, and in, 11893 was commissioned lieutenant- jcolonel, being later advanced to the { full ecoloneley. | In 1897 he was appointed command- | ant of the Royal School of Artillery at Quebec, which post he occupied for many years, as wel] as that of inspec- tor of artillery for the Quebec dis- jtrict. It was in the artillery service { that the them lieut.-Col. Wilson did {much of his best work in improving [this branch of the service, which was {for long neglected in Canada, and in | recogmition of his services he was ap- | pointed * honorary A.D.C. to the gov- ,ernor-general. In 1907 he retired from | active service, when he was granted | the rank of major-general by the Do- | minion government. Shortly after his retirement from ac- tive service, General Wilson removed | with Mrs. Wilson to Montreal, and he {had since resided there. The deceased {in 1892 married Florence Adelaide, daughter of the late Sir Hugh Allan, who survives him. There were two children to the union. | The deceased will be given a mili- {tary funeral, both in Montreal and {at Quebec, where interment will take place. Funeral service will be held at [the family residence, 141 Crescent street, at noon on Friday, after whic), the remains will be escorted to the | § | {dominion board to prosecute the i fenders, if ! protect -- THE LAW IN THE HOLDING OF VOTING CONTESTS. H. A. Harrington, Domnjinion Organ- izer, Sounded Warning to Retail Merchants-- Action WAI be Taken 'to Stop - Practice--To \ Get After Bad Debts, - H. A. Harrington, dominion organ zer, addressed the members of the Ke tail Merchants' Association, on Wed nesday night," and during the course of his remarks, pointed out that it was a criminal offence to conduct the contest for votes, such as that which had been carried on in this city, for a! library. He sounded a warning, anc said that he had instructions from the of it were not stamped out. There was a good attendance at the meeting and the chair was occupied by the president, £. T. Mr. Harrington also spoke on the work of the association, and the me thods which were being applied to the interests of the retail | merchants. As regards voting com petitious, etc., from papers he read, it was found that some members had been violating the law. He would give the merchants credit for not Erin the law, but trusted the mat ter would be gwen attention. The as sociation is taking the matter up at once. W. A. Mitchell, - who has for some time, ably filled the duty of secretary, resigned. Howard Marshall was ap pointed to the position. Another meet- img will be held on April 25th, and at this meeting the other officers will be elected. It was pointe! out that an amend ment in the criminal code, in 1905, made it a criminal offence for a mer- chant to offer or give trading stamps which might be regarded as discount, or a bribe to customers. The Whig was informed, to-day, bv a leading merchant, that steps would be taken to have a collector appoint- ed to collect all bad accounts. Such a system as this was in. vogue in city, some years ago. At Brantford, it is announced that a collector ap- pointed by the association there suc- ceeded. in collecting over $2,000 in bad debts during one year --r---------- Convention in Napanee. "Rev. Nir.
