Before the robiers left town, they were spotted by a couple of citizens, as the tires were piled in the back of the car the paper wrappingsstill-on them. The car was also running without lights at the time. Both these circumstances were suspie- ious, and drew special attention to the car and its occupants. But no alarm had been given regard- ing the robbery, so the robbers slipped away. Having succeeded in their first venture, the robbers came back on Tuesday night. A return visit had been expected, and a number of Port Perry men were on the lookout. The car and its occu- pants were located about mid- night on Tuesday, and word was gent to Harold Archer, who in company with some other men went south to CasSimir Street, where the car was ked in front of Mr. McCrea's house. The men in the car were told that they were wanted down town. Horold and Mr. Art Kight jumped on the running board of the car, and the car turned north along Lilla Street. When they reached the Town Hall, instead of turning down town the car shot straight north. arold at- tempted th stop the car, but the driver stepped on thc gas, and at the same time Mr. Archer was ghot through the left thigh.

Moore, Liberal candidate in South Ontario, a rousing reception last night when the Grits of the riding carried their cam- paign to the northern town. The town hall was filled to the overflow- ing with a large assemblage of Lib- erals and Progressives. The meeting was particularly orderly, Frequent | applause greeted the remarks of the speakers, but not once during the evening was an interruption made. There was no doubting the fact that the man who has left for time being | nis farming activities' at Dunbarton ', WE SERVE TO PLEASE Try our Bread, in and Confection- list of Farms for Sale is Our ave ; some, jever before offered, Dn to contest this riding in the interests of the Liberal party is immensely popular in the northern section. Up- on his arival he was cheered, when an ovation which shook the rafters and at the close of the meeting he was given three rousifig cheers, Mr. Moore's discussion of the Lib- eral economi® policy found favour with the audience which, frequently applauded his utterances, particularly his statement that he stood for a policy which would bring together the workers of the field and the factory in an effort to conciliate and give fair play to both. Mr. Moore was i from an attack of hay fever and did not speak at great length. 4 By long odds the outstanding' and pre-eminent feature of the meeting - was the appearance on the platform old Frank Chapman, Progressive can- === | didate in the federal election of 1921. In a brief speech Mr. Chapman spoke | of Mr. Moore's-mierits, bespoke active )| support for him, and stand in the present c | ting fair - representation on all ques- | tions" at Ottawa with Mr. Moore," said the former Progressive candi- date, J] feel perfectly safe with him there." I) Dr, Kaiser, Conservative. candidate behind to dodge the real issues all of which they are afraid to face. In going in- to the record of Hon, Hugh Guthrie, the speaker of the evening made | eausties comment on the fact that years ago as a Grit he had asked the return of the Liberals that they d might clean up a mess left by the Tories. But now speaking under assures the people that the Tories are the only people fit to clean up what he is pleased to call a Grit mess. ~W. A. Dryden of Brooklin, presi- dent of the South Ontario Liberals, spoke in an optimistic vein and fore- cast the return of the Liberal party with a majority over all. In common with other speakers he dwelt on Mr. Moore's qualities and repeated to the audience the statement of a well known man, to the effect that the candidate was the smartest man in the riding, Chapman made a decided hit with the orowd when he quoted from han- sard a statement made by Dr, Kaiser on the floor of the house. The quotation was as follows: Mr, Forke: (During a speech being made by Dr. Kaiser) It weakens your argument, Dr. Kaiser: Everything weakens the argument to my honorable friend here, except one thing. That is how to get two or three cents more for a bushel of wheat. Are we to be gov- erned by two or three men whose vision of Canada begins at their back door and ends at their own fence ling 7" Some Hon. Member: Order, order. "I would like Dr, Kaiser to explain why this needless slur was thrown on the Progressives. It would seem almost criminal if after a slap like that a Progressive leader in South Ontario were to support him." Nor was this all that Mr. Chapman had to criticize in Dr. Kaiser. Read- ing the advertisement, "Vote for Dr. Kaiser, he lives in Oshawa" to the gathering, the speaker ironically re- marked that it was easy to see where the trend of the doctors thought was. Such statements as these having been made by the Conservative candidate, Mr. Chapman felt it was the duty of every Progressive to vote and work for the Liberal nominee who stood broadly for fairness to all. Frank Chapman who contested South Ontario on a Progressive ticket in the election of 1921 outlined his stand in the present campaign. He said that as a member of the progres- sive party he believed that the pre- sent election should not have taken place at this time, But since there was an election he believed every per- son should exercise the franchise. "It is the duty of every citizen to vote. If people do not vote they cannot find fault with the Government returned," said Mr. Chapmafi in pleading that no Independent or Progressive refrain from. going to the polls on Sept. 14. The Progressive platform of the previous election was reviewed in de- tail. "We want a man who will re- present the toilers, who is in har- mony with the people of this con- stituency. We want purity in public life. Openness in the, contributions to. campaign funds. These being the issues in the last election, I don't see that they have changed in this," he said, Mr. Chapman condemned the atti- tude of Mr. Meighen in this election. He said the Tory chieftain was try- ing to make an issue out of 'the Cutoms scandal when the people well know that the tariff is the question. "It is an insult to the intelligence of the people of this country. Home and sane people cannot be expected to take this seriously." "Mr. Meighen has always impress- ed me as an autocratic man. The manner in which he prorogued parlia- ment demonstrated how he believes in handling the Government. Pro- gressives will not stand for such tac- tics," asserted Mr, Chapman. "I have always known Mr. Moore as. an able, Sou sound, energetic man. 'A capable leader '4 man of initiative and a man whom the Liberals are to {be congratulated on having secured asa' "candidate, Knowing these things about Mr. , I consider it my 1 |'duty not to hide my light' 1 but different - colors - at Port-- Perry, he} | work done at o sive alliance, it was said to be partly due to unwise statements made by Mr. Meighen--locally it was due to Dr, Kaiser's attitude. The Conser- vative candidate when asked last year whether he would support legis- lation beneficial to parts of the riding other than Oshawa, the doctor had said he would if it were in accordance with the views of his leader. remarks expressed his appreciation of the support of Mr. Chapman and also of Lawson Clifford, both of whom were candidates in 1921. He said ghat Mr. Smith the third candi- date hdd been unable to support him oa expressed the hope that the factTthat he had ealled ypon him had not given his friend political trouble. Mr, Moore discussed for a time the Liberal economic policy and the re- sults which .it was having on" the country. The. destruction of the country which Conservatives- last year had cried would result from Liberalism, had never arrived. Instead had dawned a day of great success and prosperity, The Liberal party had considered the artisan in the city, the farmer behind the plough. "We aye all proud of our cities, we are proud of Oshawa, and Toronto, but we Liberals realize that all prosperity began at the soil. On the'other hand we did not forget the artisan. Neither we nor the Progressives wanted to destroy this prosperity nor cause him to lose his home--and none of them lost their homes,' asserted the can- didate. Rroof of this was given in the form of statements which showed the great prosperity of implement and automobile and other industries, "This prosperity was the result of the Liberal policy of considering both the producer and the consumer and of making cheap to the producer, im- plements of production, " asserted Mr, Moore. Speaking of "Free Trade" the can- didate said it was not an issue in this campaign. Mr. Moore declared him- self in favour of making revenue at the boundary line, but against pro- tection save under special conditions. "If you believe in the briek for brick idea or in high protection, I am not your man," said Mr. Moore, "because I believe Canada should be able to work out her own economic policy without any assistance or suggestion from the States. On the other hand if your believe here is a common ground on which workers in the field and in the factory can get together and conciliate, then I am your man, Liberalism stands for a fair deal for the men of the factory and the field," concluded Mr. Moore. tin mein CONSERVATIVES MEET AT PORT PERRY (Whitby Gazette) Addressing a large and enthusiastic rally of Conservatives held in the Town Hall, Port Perry, last week, Hon, Hugh Guthrie declared that the Customs scandal, with which he dealt for nearly an hour, was the main is- sue in the elgetion and that the con- stitutional issue being talked of all over the country by Hon. W. M, L. King and his followers was simply a means to turn the minds of the peo- ple away from the record of the King Government in its administration of the Customs Department, At considerable length Hon. Mr. Guthrie dealt with clause after clause of the Customs report based on the Stevens charges, pointing out that the terrible condition existing in that department constituted a dark page in the history of Canada. Even if the King Government was returned to power on September 14th, said the speaker, it would be unable to cope with the situation found to exist at almost 'every customs port in Canada, Where goods were being smuggled over the country defrauding the fed- eral treasury of millions of dollars annually and proving a detriment to Canadian manufacturers. The speak- er asked his hearers to read in de- tail the report brought in by the special probe committee at Ottawa and not to be misled with the state- ment that the constitutional issue and the claims being made for the Robb budget where the chief concern of the electorate at this time. Hon. Mr. Guthrie paid a tribute to the good and asked for the whole-hearted sup- port of the Conservatives of this rid- Ho.
