Shannon, Deputy Postmaster; J. C. Strange, Deputy Post Office tispector; and Thomas Grimason, Collector of Inland Revenue. A meeting of the executive of the Conservative. Association of Kingston was held in the president's office, on Wednesday evening, to consider the question of recommendations for sev- : eral dominion government: pasts here. There were three applications for the position of deputy postmaster, which wag not filled since John L. Renton occupied it. Charles G. Shannon, of the money order department, received the recommendation for the post. Another government vacancy was cnused hv the death eof the lak Charles T, Dickson, collector. of inland revenue.

A loss of re venue without the least moral bene: fit is what reduction means. We have many old countrymen in Kingston who are for the first Lime face to face with one of the deplor- able phases of Canadian life in the form of a famtical moral fad. In the old land no such silly things were brought before the peogle in the forms of referendum for reducing li- censes. No man loves his liberty more than an Englishman and no man detests an unfair fight more than he does... Drastis measures are not in bis line' and license reduction will have the votes' of all our old coun: try friends cast against it on Mon- day. To rob any man or elass of men' of their living without one thought of compensation is the meanest and low- est thing that a community can be' guilty of, In the old land wher- ever the authoritics find it necesvary 10 remove a license tre hotder for the; loss.
