Coulter, of the town of Lindsay, in the County of Victoria, and at other places in the province of Ontario, in the year of our Lord 1910, prior to the laying of this infor- mation, did unlawfully and wickedly fraudulent means, to defraud the jure the Farmers’ Bank. of Canada, and to injuriously aflect the credit and standing of the Farmers’ Bank of Canada, contrary to the form of the statute in such case made and provided, and against the peace of our Lord the King, His Crown and dignitY- New Secretary ’ of Local Y.M.C.A. Secretary Bingleman, of the local Y.M.C.A., who tendered his resigna- tion at a meeting of the Board of ‘ Directors some weeks ago, has been succeeded by Mr. Frank Young, who has been assistant secretary of the LWest End Y.M.C.A. of Toronto. Mr. Young, who was in town to- day, has been a. very successful Y.

He is deeply interested in the boy problem. and will enter the local. work filled with enthusiasm, and pos- sessing a determination to make the Association. a. still greater power for good in the community. ’ The Post extends a cordial welcome to Mr. Young and also congratulates the Association on securing his ser- V1088.

One Element in the Strike That Should Not be Lost Sight 0f The following has request : Guaranteed lst preference 2nd preference 3rd preference Total £45,434,051 Upon the first of these, the ordin- ary stock, about $112,000,000, not one cent of dividdnd has ever been paid. ‘ This stock was subscribed nearly all ‘ of it, in England, so that those Eng- lishmen who built the G.T.R. have lost the interest on their investment for over fifty years, and have lost the money invested, for the stock itself is, we believe, today worth little. On the other classes of stock issued dividends haVe been paid intermit- tently, though the rate is only four Der cent on the guaranteed and third per cent on the guarameeu and mum; preference stocks and five Per cent on the others. For the past nine years the dividends have been as fol- lows’ 1901 1902 ...... 1903 ......... 1904 1905 1906 1907 1908 This would average two and a quar- E, ter per cent on the amount of stocks? that have paid dividends. There is no doubt about the value’ of this road to the Canadian people} during the years of struggle when) Canada was a poor and sparsely setâ€"I ltled country. It is only now that‘ there is a chance of the stick holdâ€" ers of the Grand Trunk Railway reaping some return for the immense! sums expended in building their road‘ It may be urged that the original inâ€" vestors took a chance of losing when they built the road just as any other investors doo. True, but some consideration is due them or their assignees who now hold the stock for the tremendous losses they have suf- fered. Their loss has been Canada’s gain, and the Canadian people should not be ungrateful for benefits receiv- ed. A B. McGILL.
