Proportionate rates are established Ion the other local runs. For instance ion the Belleville to Toronto run the {pay of conductors will be $135 per fmonth instead of $158.87; baggagemen 1380 instead of $91.88, and brakemen 325 instead of $88.92. The most strik- ingreduction of all is on the Pon- tiac-Caseville run, where ‘conductors will receive $100 per month instead of $188.76, the baggagemen $70 instead of $125.84, and the brakemen $85 in- stead of $123.84. The other reductions vary from $10 to $50 per month for Conductors and $5 and upwards for other trainmen. There are only two instances in which the new rates for local conductors are under $100 a month. while the maximum for the local runs is $135. LINDSAY DECREASES The Northern Division and the Pe- terboro-Toronto run conductors re- ceived $95 in “1909; $115 in 1911 and $121.91 in 1912. They drop back to $115.

WHY AGRICULTURE IS IGNORED. "Time was when agriculture receiv- ed more attention at the hands of the law-making authority. It was 36 years ago Thursday since I joined the Grange. During the interval I have filled. at different times, the offices of Master and Secretary of the Do- minion body. At that time the Grange was frequently consulted in regard to pending legislation. That was because at that time we possessâ€" ed an organization strong enough to make and unmake governments. The fact that our interests have since been neglected, is because, in the in- terval, farmers, with their noses to the grindstone on the work of the farm, allowed their organization to decline. If we wish to resume our old position, to secure our just rights, we must give to our organization ev- en greater strength than was enjoyed in its palmiest days. “We have just seen, in England, an indication of what can be accom- plished by organization. There are a million coal miners. These million men. standing as individuals, would be absolutely powerless. By union they have been able to command for the moment the undivided attention of the most powerful government in the world, and the result is likely to be legislation fixing a minimum 2' age for underground .workers.

Proceeding, Mr. Glendinning went into detail to show just how legisla- tion has affected industrial condiâ€" tions. i “When the policy or protection was [first proposed we were told that doâ€" ‘mestic conpetition would keep down the price of manufactured products. That was the case for a time after the adoption of protection. Later on these domestic competitors combined, and competition was eliminated. What is the result ? Take- cotton goods as an example. There is today only: one door by which purchasers can enter in buying cottons from Ca.â€" nadian mine. The result of this com- bination is that cotton goods cost the Canadian consumer more than they did at any previous time save during the American war.
