Twin City IREFUSED PRISONER AT PENITENTIARY A Man Intending to Appeal His Case Must Be Kept in Jail. ---- Thomas Fox, London, Out..-who was eepbehcnd to folirteen yedrs in the Portsmouth penitedtiary, and also to receive twenty lashes during that time, arrived at the prison on Monday afternoon but was not-ad- mitted and was taken (back to the connty jail at London. | At the last session of the domin- ion parliament, the Penitentiary Act was so amended thet in cade of a man who is sentenced ¢o the prisom and intends to appeal his case, he must be retained in the county jail in the city or town from which he is sentenced until such time as his case js finally settled by the court. * On Monday when Fox arrived at the prison, Warden Ponsford asked him if he intended to appeal his ose, and when he statéd that he did, the sonstable in charge was in- structed to take his man back to London. This new act is working out very satisfactorily. In years past, a man would probably be senténced to a period of two or three years, and then he would appeal his case. When the appeal ds heard, ithe court may decide to reduce the séntence amd tiary, the prisoner is transferred to the Burwash farm or the Central prison at Guelph.

Kingston, Ott. 21. (To the Editor:) a-As a business man and employer, kindly allow me to present a few facts on prohibition. Mr. Roger Babson, the greatest statitician of business on this contin- ent, recently said that it would be a great misfortune to Ontario, if she should repeal her Temperance Abt. * Capital invested in almost any busi- ness commodity will émploy more men and pay more men than'in liquor. The retail grocers of Vancouver pe- titioned the government to submit to the people a vote on bone-dry prohibi- tion. Let us make a few comparisons be- tween Montreal and Toronto. During the last three years the bank clearings lars to five and one half billion. Dur- ing the same time the bank clearings of Toronto increased from 5.4 billions 16 5.6 billions. One half the people of Toronto own their own homies; less than one quarter of the people of Montreal are home owners. The adult death rate of Montreal is 15.6 per thousand, that of Toronto 11.4. The death rate of children under twelve months old in Montreal is.\148 per thousand, that of Toronto 63. Al though! Toronto has three times as many cars as Montréal, deaths from automobile accidents in Toronto are only one-half those of Montreal. Burglary insurance in Montreal costs 25 per cent. more than in Toronto, and the insurance companies say Montreal rates must be increased by the new year. The g¥eatest example of prohibition in the world is the United States, which adopted it in 1918, since then their industrial progress has beaten and astonished the world; they pay the highest wages of any country. Their success is the envy of all European J countries. A British member of parliament said that an American worker in the shoe manufacture produced three times as much as a British. worker, An Ameri- can miner produces 681 tons a year on an average, a British miner 259 tons a year on &n average. It is my opinion that our Board of Trade can not do a better piece of ser- vice for the city than to endorse and support the O.T.A, Gentlemen of the Board of Trade, Kiwanis, and Rotary Clubs and other kindred organizations, is it fair to sit back in splendid neutrality while the ladies go out and shoulder the work of this plébiscite? Come along, gentle- men. Gét out the old bus, and get into the game and let us all have a jolly time on Thursday, and put this thing across. . Yours for the O.T:A. --FRANCIS R ANGLIN SPORT LOYOLA TO MEET QUEEN'S IN SEMI-FINAL SATURDAY It ha# been announced that Loyola College intermediates will meat Queen's seconds in the first game of the intermediate dntercolegidte semi-finals here on Saturday mest. This is the only open date at the Richardeon stadium and the inter- 'tcollegiate authorities grasped It eagerly. 3 Unfortunately the 4th Hussars and Oakville are playing at the fair grounds on the same day in the finals of the Ontario intermediate baseball championship, The Hussars announced their date #inet but the conflict apparently cannot be help- od. i Hussars Leaye. Hussars are billed to leave for Oakville tonight and will take sleeper through from Kingston in order to give the players every pos- sible chance to keep in ghape for the game. This morning their funds lacked some oR the y expenses but it Whs expected that would be made up before they left. The return game is in Kingston on Saturday. Indoor Baseball.

London,~ Oct. 21.--The election campaign is warming up consider- ably everywhere. Conservatives are making most of the Anglo-Russian pact and the Campbell controversy; Labor leaders are holding out pro- mises of better things to come if they are returned with a majority, while the Liberals. are advocating, among other things, state control of minerals with operation to be car- ried out by private individuals, Conservatives have now an ally in Bir Auckland Geddes, former Bri- tish ambassador to Washington. THE PRICES FOR PRODUCE. Salmon Fishing Was Enjoyed During Weather. Wolfe®island, Oet. 20.--Potato digging is about finished and all re- port a wonderful crop, but a great deal of pot in most cases, Hay is commencing to move; several presses are at work; buyers are paying around $12 pressed. The flow of milk is|keeping up well at the differ- ent cheese factories, Live hogs were sold for $9.50 last week; oats 50¢ in the village. Coal is being handled by Samuel Hogan at the Woodman sheds, for Sowards Coal Co., city, at $16 per ton in the yard. William Allison has opened up a wood yard, having received a large copsignment recent- ly. Those who indulge in salmon fish- ing report wonderful catches; some- thing uniisual to be able to troll every day for the past two weeks, owing to the very fine weather.
