The flew Liberal platform issued by the new Liberal leader; Mr. N, W. Row- ell, is noticeably in advance of any simi- lar pronouncement that has so far ema- nated from either the“ Refo'i‘lii or. the Coh'Ser'ya‘tive party; Its {1 9113181113,: if carried out, would mean a istmot 1m- provemcnt in the various departments it deals with, and there is no reason to apprehend any dilliculty in enacting into legislation and successfully inaugurating a majority of the reforms outlined in the platform. The proposed enactments re- garding combines must, however;-be’ex- c‘epted. It is now fifteen years Since trust-busting operations were commenc- ed in the United States, and at this date nobody is able to exhibit a solitary scalp, or even name one combine that has been put out of business. They are still flourishing, and the whole cost of prosecuting them has come out of the pockets of the people. Nor is there any reasonable ground for hoping that Mr. Rowell‘s good intentions concerning the betterment of the social and industrial condition of the masses of the people can be more than partially realized as a result of any legislation that he may pass if he gets into power. The proposal to loan money to settlers is an item worthy of' approval. Something of the kind should have been done long ago, not only for the man who is making a beginning on a a year from some obscure disease of the stomach, and had consulted specialists; but gradually became worse, and latter- ly Was confined to his house. He was born iii the township of Verulam in the year 1849, and when a young man he entered the employ of the R. C. Smith Company. In 1878 he entered business fer himself, bu "ing out the general stock of Mr. Joseph ,ittletongwho kept a store about Where A. 5. Gould's drug store now stands. He has been continuouslv in business in Fenclon Falls ever since, and about six years ago built the large store on the corner of Colbornc streets which he has since occupied.- In 1880 Mr. McFarland Was married to Miss Rachel McDermid, who died about sev- enteen years ago. . . Mr. McFarland was a man of strict m- tcgrity. He represcaited the town for many years as reeve and courierllor, and was a prominent member of the Metho- dist church, holding the most important offices in that congregation, being at the time of his death recording steward and superintendent ot the- Sunday school. and connected with the different socie- ties of the church. He leaves one son, Clifford, and two daughters, Mrs. John \Velch and Miss Grace, all living at the Falls, his brother, Mr. David McFarland, of Verlilam, his- nephew, Mr. Andrew lVI‘eI«‘~.J,i.-land'r who has been associated in business with him for many years, and other relatives.‘ District Epworth League Officers ‘ The following officers were appointed homestead i“ a new district, but for at the District Epworth convention at the farmer who has passed the initial stages. and is still hampered by want of Cameron last week. 1 Honorary Pres1dentâ€"Rc‘v.

What the effect will. be on the temper- ance vote is problematieal. rI'he feeling is quite general that the Plonâ€" Geo. W. loss would not have fared so badly as he did, had he come out straight for ,more advanced temperance legislation. er. Rowcll‘s stand should restore te-' ‘ him and his party a good deal, if not all, of what Mr. Ross lost by side-stepping the issue. ‘ ....__._._'._â€"_â€"â€"â€"-â€" _...__- Game Law Needs Amending. The Bancroft Times says : There is something radically wrong with our game laws. If a settler shoots a partridge on October the 14th it is $5 ,and costs for him, but you can» " the woods the next day and kill: 200 birds and you are couwlimcntcdonyour good luck. And apparently from what is taking place right under our noses, you can not only shoot all the birds you can find, but you can hire othersâ€" to , shoot them for you, buy them, get them any old way, and ship them out by the ‘ease, and nothiing is said.
