In spaking at Wabigoon, Mr Heen an asked some pointed questions. Let us examine the men that are supporting the Conservative Candid- ate he said. Take first Premier Ferguson, who did everything he could possibly 'do to deprive Kenora of securing a Pulp and Paper Indus- try. Then Hon R Rogers, who wrpte to the Ontario Government, protest- ng against the establishment of the Pulp and Paper Mill at Kenora g'v- ing as his reason that it would be unpleasant to. summer Residents The Hon. R J Manion who support- ed the Hon Arthur Meighen's Gov- ernment when they put through a bill to block the development of pow- er at the Norman Dam,.1921 and Mr Earngey, whom the peorde de- feated at the last Provincial Election because he had blocked the building of the Roads and Highways through this District for many years, and when he was a member himself fail ed 'to do anything worth while for the District. ar Let the people of this district com- mare those gentlemen with persons like the Rt. Hon W IL MacKenzie King, who is recognjzed the world over as a Statesman. Mrs Edith Rogers, M: L: A. of Winnipeg, who is known and loved all over Canada for her work with the Canadian Re} friend of the working men of the Kenora-Rainy-River riding, and Con servative candidate in the present ride two horses, Turouhout the district he has been addressing meetings of working men and seeking to convince them of his bona-fides as a 'friend'; - at the same time he is supporting molicies which, in the unkkely event of their receiving the approval of the electors on July 28 next, wil cast upon these same workingmen added financial burdens. ; To-day McManus is a self-confes- sed out-and-out HIGH TARIFF sum porter, apnroving of the Bennett proposals, and admitting that if the Conservative Policies win the con- sumer will have to face high costs of Living, But it was not alwys thus. Mec- Manus may remember, if it is now convenient for him to do so that at one of his first public aprearances in Kenora, during the 1921 election con- fest, he spoke in support of Dougald Kennedy, Farmer-Labour Candidate, At that meeting, held in the Court House at Kenora, he strongly advoct- ted the LOW TARIFF PLATFORM and argued that high tariff would not 'benefit one single worker in Kenora. He even went so fas as to challenge any working man to say that it would, But to-day where does McManus Pra turned Men & their Families. = Mrs Charles Thorburn, of Ottawa, who Is is also well known throughout Can- ada for her work for the Returned Men, and in connection with the Child Welfare Organizations and all Philanthropic work, During the course of the addres- ses given several Speakers pointed out what Mr Heenan had done for the District, The number of roads & highways, the protecting of the Town of Dryden when the Power Contract was being made with the Pulp and Paner Company, and the thousands of dollars secured for the Hospitals and Schools in this Dis- trict. The speaker stated that they knew that the meople in this District are not going to vote against 3 man , stand We find him the candidate of the Conservavtive Party led by Hon. R B Bennett, the arch-discinle of HIGH TARI[FF--and the HIGH- ER the better. McManus gives his full support to the policies of his leader Mr Bennett, multi-millionaire, copooration lawyer and professional politician. ; The HIGH TARIFF McManus i¢ no fanciful pleture. At Redditt on June 27 he addressed a meeting in the course of which he said, accord- ing 'to the press report. 'Citing the case of the producer in the Southern part of the Riding, and blaming the Liberal tariff for the fact, that these producers were not securing a profitable price for their products, Mr McManus declared that that has done so much for this Dis- is backed by gentltmen who are proven to be enemies of the District, § Mr McIntosh, secretary of the Win nipeg Trades and Labour Council sneaking at Wabigoon Wednesday Night stated that he was not a ' Politician and that he had never | been on the Political Platform but Manus. he felt it was his duty to state that Mr Heenan was the fairest to the working man of this He asked how one Labour, any could vote against a man like Peter |niem Heenan, who had secured amend- ments to the Wiorkmens' Compensga- tion Act; the Mothers' Allowance Act, the Dinimum Wage for Women and Girls, the Old Age Pension Act, the Fair Wage and Eight Hour Day on Public Contracts, the Ad- justment of so many Labor Disputes without a strike , and has secured PREVENT FIRE ag far as possible preventive measures a inancial loss Hire with sulliciot FIBRE INSURANCE © NWR E WITH 4 £ QIBOON, Agent, Dryden H . a nf pt 2 112. trict in preference for a man who were willing the 4 ¥ country that had ever been in the Department of ;1,0W TARIFF McManus he, and his fellow Conservatives people should be alled upon to pay higher prices.

The stores will be coen until 12:30. er living costs. And to what end? Simply that the Eastern Manufact- urers' who were almost solidly and selfishly behind the Conservative nrogramme, may corral the Canadian home market and increase their present substantial profits at the ex- pense of the consuming public. The consumers of Canada form by far the largest papt of the popula- * tion. They are wage-earners who have to pay as they go, and when they have purchased the necessities of life; there is left for the family bank roll, Under the McManus policy, there will not be anything left. But increase the cost of living to the consumer, and where will the pro ducer benefit? The Bennett tariff proposals will inevitably resut in restricted markets abroad. Mr Ben- nett tells us if he cannot find out- side markets through amicable nego- tiation he will 'blast a way' to them, That is sheer bunkum. = Business isn't done that way. = Hence the producer will have to sell at home, and, under the McMan- us policies to consumers whose pur- chasing power will be restricted be- cause of higher living costs. The fact is McManus, like his leader, is running around in a circle, getting nowhere but raising a lot of dust. Out of this smoke-screen emerges, however a ray of light for the electors.

The banquet is the first Public function to be given by the Club, and was certainly one that will long ba re- memberd for its splendid success, It also marked the launching of a wide-awgke Club, which is bound to go far and fast, toward educating {the rising generation ih Canadian i politics. ls § Mrs Peter Heenan acted as offic- tial chairman, and speeches were giv- ,en by Miss Margaet Heenan Mr s Fawcett Heenan and Mr Jack Skil len, president of Dryden Club. After the tables were practically , devoid of all = digestible matter] : (which by the way were presided ,overby eight professional young 'wai ters") Community singing gave a gay spirit of comaraderie to the as- sembly. Club talent was brought to the fore, in the person of Miss Jean- nette Reid and Miss Evelyn Adair, who rendered instrumental and voeal solos respectively, and were encored by an appreciative audience, The first: part of the evening was closed | {by singing of God Save the King, when an interval followed, while the tables were cleared and the Hall made ready for dancing. Much credit for the success of the dance must: be extended to the Orch: estra the Russell Ramblers, who did ! their utmost to give peppy music, - The catering which was so ably done by J. O.

These issues are great and vital to the men and women of Can- ada; and one of them unemployment has, unfortungtely, a very joersonal application to many of our citizens, We cannot have a hapoy, Pros- perous Canada, unless its citizens are gainfully employed. We cannot have contented family units unless the bread-winner has the opportun.. ity to work and be 3 good provider for his family.

These great Works would almost at once the problem of unemployment and trusses and mean the solution of our difficulties, and bring to our doors a great mew a our resouics, with consequent further employment for our peonle, and those who will be attracted to make their homes here. The Government of Premier King has repeatedly turned down the pro- ject of a trans.Canada Highway, so | there is no hope there, and we must | look to Mr Bennett who hag declar-| ed himself in favor of it. Its con- struction will add value to every piece of property in these Districts: of Northern Ontario. It will benefit every Province from the Atlant'c to the Pacific and is therefore national in its character. on I am also anpealing to you, ladies and gentlemen on the strength of Mr Bennett's Nationgl Policy to re- vitalize the géneral industries of Canada and create work for every- body, thus enabling our Hoys and girls to remain in their own country. To enable my great leader, Hon, R.
