SATURDAY'S MEETING The opening of the present election campaign was held in the Town Hall on Saturday evening last in the in- terests of Dr. Jas. Moore, the Con- servative candidate. = The hall was pretty well filled but not crowded. Old time politicians would consider proceedings rather tame, as there the bitter personal attacks which Mr. W. H. Harris occupied the peopléjand that through inexperience Dr. Moore pointed out that Mr. Dealing with the economy plank office but |. they will cost 50 millions, which would mean a tax of $76.00 per 100 acres, 3 In educational matters, the speaker could see no improvement; and he considered that the Government had been weak in wiping out the Adole- scent School Attendance Act in rural districts, In concluding. his speech, Dr. Moore spoke highly of the two-party political system, and - deplored the idea of class Government. Mr, F, L. Fowke, ex M.P, dealt with the growth of the political ideas in Ontario, and showed that while class Government may be acceptable to the farmers of to-day; it was quite possible for it to become a real danger "to them 'if labor ever came into power; as the purpose of the two parties are opposite. The wage earners may be the next group in power, if we continue class repre- sentation; and the wage earners are opposed to the farmers. Mr. Fowke endorsed the view ex- pressed by Mr. Drury at Oshawa on Friday evening 'regarding Mr. Sin- clair, stating--"He has been nothing but an objector and a destructive critic." Mr. Fowke also critized his attitude on matters of tempérance stating that he stood first on one foot and then on the other. His third at- tack upon Mr. Sinclair was in the matter of his attitude to public af- fairs during the war, comparing it unfavorably with that of Dr. Moore, the Conservative candidate. ® er + Yours very truly _ : wi hold a Public Meeting at Port |= Port Perry Branch, tr. TOTAL ASSETS OVER hein Aiton H. G. Hutcheson, Manager W. E. N. Sinclair, K. C., of Oshawa, Oshawa, June 1st, 1923 To the electors of South Ontario: On June 25th the Province elects its new Legislature. The Liberals of South Ontario have again nominated me . I represented the riding for the past four years and three years previously. I have actively engaged in the work of the Legislature and served you conscientiously. My ex- perience and judgement are at your command if you wish me to go on for another four years. Being engaged in professional and business work in Oshawa, carrying on my farm in Whitby Township, and identified with social work, I feel I can represent all shades 'of thought and legislate for the good of all classes. My platform is the good of the people. There must be re trench- ment in expenditure of public money, and a closer scrutiny of the same. There must be progress along the lines of social reform and a sound adminstration of law for the common good. There must be support for sound public ownership and develop- ment of Hydro for the rural com- munitites. There must be further care for the needs of the agricultural community. There must be a busi- ness administration of the affairs of the Province, carried on by men of experience and judgment who will serve for the good they can do the community. If you believe my .record is good, my qualifications proper, and my ex- perience to you more than any other candidate in this election, I ask your votes, assuring you I will as in the past represent you to my best ability. To. the women voters let me say that you have a great opportunity to elevate public life by polling all your votes and carefully guarding all you have so far secured. I especially ask for your votes in this election. I cannot see all of you in this large riding of 81,000 people. I invite you to all my meetingswhere I discuss questions more fully. Polling day is Monday, June 25th from 8 am. to 6 pm. I ask your endorsement of my past record on that day and your renewal of con- fidence for the coming four years, assuring you that as the years go by and experience ripens into judgment, it is more a pleasure to serve you be- taifse of my' greater Sppastuiies, W.

Stone's silo was de- stroyed, Mr. Reazin's barn was struck. All those are neighbors with- in a distance of half a mile. Their fences were flattened, trees were blown down and telephone poles were struck. The storm followed on up the concession up-rooting trees and blowing holes in roofs of buildings, for about a mile;where it then struck Mr. Heatlie's barn and scattered it over two fields; and then to an near- by swamp where an animal was kill- ed. Mr Heatlie is at a great loss as his grain will be destroyed in gather- ing up the timbers that were scatfer- ed over the fields, It was fortunate that no one was killed. Mr. Webster had crossed over the place where his silo is thrown about five minutes be- fore, having just unhitched his team. een JO Ore ASHBURN Rev. A.
