Milton, Feh, 2.--Premier in all probability will not have to conduct a contest in order to obtain a seat to insure his continuance in the position of the Premiership of Ontario. The Liberal Association of Halton County, in which riding Me, Drury has signified his intention of running, decided Saturday that they would not put a candidate in the flelg to oppose Mr. Drury. The Conserva- tive Association has already come to a similar conclusion. There is a bare possibility, of course, that an Inde- pendent candidate will oppose Mr. Drury, but in all likelihood he will be elected by acclamation. ress The Japanese Labor Delegates.

The joint advisory committee of the Army and Navy Veterans and Great War Veterans' Association of Kingston, held a meeting on Satur- {day evening to discuss further the | filling of various local appointments and other matters of interest to vet- crans, Comrade J. 'W. Connor, G. W.V.A, occupied the chair. The first item of business was the discussion of the appointment of a clerk in the city engineer's office. It | was pointed out during the discussion { that in May of last year a resolution was passed by the City Council pro- viding that in filling all civic posi- tions i the future preference be given to returned soldiers, and in making this appointment the council had acted contrary to that resolution. It was also considered unfair to the veterans who were qualified for the position, that'a young lady should be taken out of a lucrative position, which she still holds, and placed in the city's employ. The following re- solution was pa-sed: "That steps be taken to have the appointment of clerk in the city en- gineer's office re-opened, and = that of council be drawn to passed last year pro- viding that in filling all civic posi- tions the preference should be given to returned soldiers, and that we re- {quest a hearing from 'the city coun- jcil for the purpose of pressing our claims," Further information was handed in regarding the appointments of medi- cal officer and matron at the peni- tentiary. A letter from the chair- man of the civil service commission was read, in which it was stated that the appointment as temporary mat- ron was made without the know- ledge and authority of the commis- sion. A strogg demand will be made for the fullest possible investigation of all the facts. In regard to the delay in making good the appointment of Comrade Bourdeau as issuer of motor licenses in Kingston, the commandant of the Army and Navy Veterans was auth- orized to secure copies of all the cor- resporidence on this apponitment from the departmental files in To- . fronto, so that it cai be ascertained who are responsible for the, delay. The committee appointed to make [arrangements for the assault-at-arms reported that Major-General V. A. S. Williams had graciously given per- {mission to use the armouries for this event on March 2nd.
