Candidate Opened His Election Campaign at Odessa. | Mr. R. J. Bushell, Progressive candidate for Frontenac-Addington, in the Federal.elections in Septem- ber, opened his campaign at Odessa on Saturday night, and with two other speakers, G. Anson Aylesworth and James Bell, addressed a fairly large audience in the village hall. The three speakers criticized severe- ly the Conservative government, told of the advantages to be gained from the Robb Budget, and Mr. Ayles worth in particular, flayed Premier Meighen roundly, for his action in *|.connection with the dissolution of Parliament, through the Governor- General. There was great enthusiasm at the meeting and there was no heckling. Mr. Henry Smith was chairman, and introduced the different speak- ers. Mr. James Ball was the first speaker, and in a stirring speech, he declared that the Progressive group was the people's party, while others were for the interests. The other parties were very partisan, and railed one another about the misdo- ings that occurred during the gov- ernment of the one or the other. Mr. Bell stated that much hed beef heard of the Customs scandal, but he reminded his audience that there were many scandals in the Conserva- tive government, among thém the sale of horses by DeWitt Foster and other things. Mr. Bell took up the question of the decrease in population of the rural sections and of the increase in the urban centres. He pointed out that since 1878, Kingston's popula- tion had grown from 17,000 to 24, 000 in 1924, while Frontenae¢ in 1878, had a population of 26,000, and in 1921 this had been reduced to 20,000. In addition there was a decline' of over one-third the popu- lation. In almost evéry rural riding there had been a decrease in popu- lation, Mr. Bell stated that the in. crease in the machinery in use had nothing to do with that condition either. Machinéry had been put inte the cities and they had grown while in the rural centres thers had been a big drop. Unusual Trade Policy. The speaker declared that it was the unsound trade policy , that had been the calise of all this since 1878. Mr. Meighen says protection. Mr. Bell sald the word was misused. It should be called "the toll and bonus system." All are not treated the same, The speaker stated that a decrease In population in the' riral séetions meant that sale of farm lands must be disposed of in a buyers' market. This would be a loss. Fitty«one per cent. of the people of Canada were farmers, and the value of the pro- perty is depreciating. Protection had besn introduced in 1878 here, but it>had been in forge in England before that. Mr. Bell declared that in England there had been rigid profection for land own. ers and shippers. At that time, Eng- Hsh ships were' the only ones that could carry cargoes from and into England. There were no colonial Ships. The Corn Law was for the land dwners. Not till 1846 were the People freed from this Bondage, and it was good forihe masses. Condi- tions in England were greatly im. proved. In 1858 protection on sugar came into affect in Canada, and the Hedpath sugar interests made a for- tune and are still dolag it. Protec- tion, Mr. Bell sald, was for the wealthy classes. Mr. Béll said that seventy-seven per cent. 'of the automobile money invested in Canadas was American capital. A reduétion in the price of motor cars, as given by the Robb budget, takes $100 that would go into this American capital, and puts it into the kets of the Camadian gLonsumers, to do something else with. The rubber industry creates a similar condition now and gives more money to Canadians. Mr. Bell disagreed with the income tax reductions, in that the incomes of men who have benefitted from the country, should not have had their tax reduced. Money is what won elections, the speaker said. Mr. Mei. ghen had declared that protection .| Was entrenched behind ramparts of gold. . ¥ In conclusion, Mr. Bell urged his listeners (to elect the * Progressive aidate. tion was for the interests and they | did not like the common people. He | said Mr. Meighen had tried to over- ( fide the freedom of parliament, end | parliament is the people. He has | tried to make the people dg as he } says. Mr. King had obeyed the will | of the people. . | Mr. Meighen had opposed the re-| duction of the tariff and reduction of | tax. He had opposed the budget and | had opposed the reduction on auto- | mobiles. Mr. Meighen opposed every move made by parliament, and put that pariiament, which is the people, out of the way, and when the Pro- gressives would not bend to him, he acted, not as a Cromwell, but in an | underhand way. His party sent out | stories that have been exploded. Mr. Aylesworth took up the ques- | tion of trade. He stated that if it | was not an evil thing t6 trade freely | between Ernesttown, Camden, Leeds, | Frontenac, Ontario and Quebec, wiiy | is it an evil thing to trade between | United States and Canada? something else than it could use, and | We needed it, Why not exchange? A fair exchange, he sald, was of bene- | fit to both. Protection was a means! of tyranny, the speaker declared. Mr. Aylesworth pointed out that | the Governor-General, Lord Byng, | was a soldier, a hero, and a man of | honor, and he declared that Mr. Mei- | ghen should not be allowed to hide | behind him, Since 'the days of Charles II, the Prime Minister has | been responsible for the actions of | the King in a public way, and the Prime Minister in Canada is respon- sible for the action of the Governor- General in Canada. On the should- ers of Meighen was the responsibil ity for the action against the 'consti- | tution and for the situation in par- | lament in the last month, Mr. R. J. Bushell. Mr. Bushell was warmly received when called on to speak. He pointed | out that the Robb budget had been a | gréat thing for the farmer. He re-| ferred to the great reductions made by the budget, and pointed out that | the Progressives had supplied these | reductions, which made things eas- | ler for everybody in Canada. The | speaker pointed out that the mem- | ber for Frontenac had voted against | these reductions. Mr. Bushell con- | tended that the people of the county | were sick of the misrepresentation | that they have had, and he declared | | that the Progressives, who were get- ting stronger and stronger, would | play a much larger part in the gov- ernment of the country, The speaker also pointed out the] great advances made by the Cana- dian National Railways, which show- ed a balance of thirteen milllon™ol- lars. Canada's trade balance was the largest of any country in 'the world. Taking these things into consideration, Mr, Bushell asked if that looked as though the country [ was "going tothe dogs," as the Con. servatives would have the pedple be- leve, ' ' The speaker urged that the farm- ers, designated as Progressives, take their stand and have themselves pro- perly represented in parliament. Mr. Bushell assured the auldlience that if elected, his work in the House would be for the interests of the peo- ple, and he asked that he be return ed on election day. Mr. Bushell was tendered a great ovation 4s hé concluded his short ad- dress, and the enthusiasm displayed at the meeting spoke well for the candidate. Mr. Bushell will hold Another meeting at Newboro next Saturday night, and it is anticipated that there will be a very large erowd in atténdance. Co tcp Will Teach at Gail.

HE DAILY BRITISH WHIG MEIGHEN GOVERNMENT SEVERELY SCORED (Continued from Page 1.) Before taking his seat, Mr. Jamie- son stated that he was satisfied that | the late Minister of Customs did not know that corruption was going on. | He stated that it was no trouble for the Conservatives, such as Hon. Stevens, to stir up things. Mr. Aylesworth Streaks. Mr. Aylesworth opened his dis- course by complimenting the presi-| dent on his cxcellent talk, and also stressed the nccessity of proper or- ganization, especially in this riding, which is 110 miles long, by 60 wide. "If we allow Dr. Edwards to be elect- ed without oppositjon, it means that Wwe are satisfied that Meighen and his government should control this country." = Mr. Aylesworth stated that he did Meighen had been doing since last October. While Mackengie King and his government did their utmost to put good legislation on the books, Mr. Meighen and his followers did everything in their power to obstruct and stop the work of the government elected by the people. Mr. 'Aylesworth stated that he did not always believe it, but he was now satisfied that the party system is the best, and did not believe in the sug- gestion of Agnes MacPhail, thought the business of the country could be carried on by committee. | This might be alright, if the repre- sentatives were elected each year, in the county council. Mr. Aylesworth said that Mr. Mei- ghen set his face, and stopped the progress of the government. Deal- Ing with the Robb tariff, Mr. Ayles- worth referred to the reduction in postage, and stated that this reduc- fon, which was a great benefit to all, had been opposed by the government, of which Hon. Dr. Edwards was a member. The speaker said that if the Mei- ghen government is elected, they will put a chain of protection around this country, and would probably put the tariff a little higher on automobiles, and would also increase the income | tax, which the King government re- duced betterment of all classes, In closing Mr. Aylesworth stated that he did not agree with the Pro- gressive platform in full, but if we to the | wait until we get all we want, how long will we go unrepresented? The meeting was brought to a close with the singing of the National An- them. a---------- Off On a Western Trip.
