Toronto, Nov. 28.--~At the Friday! afternoon session of the annual meet- ing of the Gemeral Reform Associa- tion of Ontario W. G. Charlton, of Aylmer, and the Liberal candidate in East Elgin, moved the resolution re- plying to the insinuations of dis- loyalty made against the Liberals by W. K. MeNaught and Ald. MeBrien. This resolution condemned the un- holy © Conservative-Nationalist alli- ance at Ottawa as unfair to Canada and inimical to the best interests of the Empire. . Referring to the Conservative-Na- tionalist Alliance, Hon, G. P. Graham déclared that the Premier had taken into his Council men who went down into Quebec and told the people )not to vote for Sir Wilfrid because if they voted for him they might have to serve in the wars of the British Empire. Sir Allen dress urged tween ihe people: of Ontario Quebec, Sir Allen paid an eloquent tribute to the personal character of Sir Wil- Irid. Not only wills he an a"le poli- tical chief, but the speaker had found in Sic Willdd one of the best friends he had ever found in his life. Everything that a good man ought to be he had found in Shr Wilfrid Laurier. "I firmly believe," declared Sir Allen, "that not 12 months will roll over our heads before Sir Wilfrid will again be called to be the first Minister of Canada." The resolution was great enthusiasm, Aylesworth in his ad- closer 'relationship be- and passed with DUTY OF FOREIGN CARS. Resolution Aimed at Cars Owned by Canadian Lines, New York, Nov. 25.~~Canadian freight cars entering this country and transporting merchandise between domestic points would "in aggravat- ed" cases become subject to customs duties should a resolution adopted to- day at the Collector's conference, held in the customs house, meet with the approval of the Treasury Depart- ment. During the last two years complaints have been made by col- lectors at several points that freight cars belonging to the Canadian Pa- cific, aren Trunk and other Cana- dian lines were being used in state and inter-state commerce in this country. After debate it was finally, decided to recommend to the Treasury De- partment that duty should be put on foreign cars in aggravated cases but only after the Seeretary of the Treas ury had been notified.

Croth- ers, minister of labor, that certain wholesale bakers in different.parts of | the country have refused to sell bread to certain retailers because they would not keep the price up. He has notified these bakers that re- | tailers must be allowed to sell at! whatever prices they choose and that | this action taken by wholesalers to keep up the prices constitutes a crim- inal offence under the cost of living legislation, The minister of labor has issued the warning by letter, that unless this practice is stopped he will in- stitute criminal action. He has also written a Hamilton hotelkeeper that it has come to his knowledge this hotelkeeper has brought from the United States some workmen to take the place of Can- adians whom he has dismissed with- out good cause. "I will not permit this," writes Mr. Crothers, and he asks the hotelkeeper to acquaint him at once with the fact that the offence has been remedied. TRUE TO CHRISTIANITY, Abyssinians Refuse to Accept Mo- hammedanism. Washington, Nov. 25.--Abyssinia, the oldest Christian country in the world, has put down another attempt to bring it under the sway of Moham- medanism.

Ottawa, Nov, 25.--The new Gov- ernor-General, the Duke of Devon- shire, has manifested his interest in the work being carried on by the Canadian Patriotic Fund by consent- ing to become the president of the fund. This position was held by the duke's predecessor, the Duke of Con- naught, from the inception of the fund until his departure from Can- ada and the present position of the fund in national confidence and fin- ancial strength is largely due to his inspiration and personal devotion to its interests. The new Governor: General evidently proposes to take the same active part in promoting the welfare of this great national under- taking. FRUSTRATED ATTEMPT !

London, Nov. 25.--The papers to- day give prominence to an appeal by Sir William Robertson, chief of the Imperial Staff for greater war efforts on the part of the people for the na- tion. The appeal was contained in a letter to the council of one of the London boroughs, and says: "There is no doubt whatever of our ability to win the war if only we really put our backs into it.
