POLITICAL TALK AND COMING ECTIONS (Woodstock Sentinel Review When people are not talking a- bout the weather these-days they are likely to be talking about politics, nd when people are talking politics they are likely to be speculating a- bout elections. Just now there is considerable speculation as to the two general elections in near future, one/for the Dominion and one for Ontario There is nothing surprising in the predjction of an early federal a tion; the political situation | that anything may happe oe ia? very long; but the Ontario G rn- ment can stay In office for another vear and a-h if it wants to do so Talk of a election per- ziste, however. course, It ts sesocijated with the Hquor problem.

The returns from the Maritime Prov- inces in the late election were known two houré before the polls closed in Calgary and three hours before vot- ing ended in Vancouver, and these returns were used, the Calgary Al- bertan says, with some ffect in stampeding voters in Western cities. In this way one of the objecté aim- ed at in the provision for simultan- eous yoting all over Canada is pre- vented of full accomplishment. Could the difficulty thus. present- ed be overcome by what is done in connection with the "galas of the budget speech at Ottawa ‘During the delivery of that speech all wires from Ottawa are silent. Could not a sim- ilar embargo be placed on the wiring of voting results from Hast to West until Western polls are closed. CANADA NEEDS.

In the early days ‘they were carried round by the var- fous kings who liked to look at them. Then, as they increased in number and bulit,the S sent most of em to the monks at Westminster Abbey for safekeeping. But in the reign of Henry JT. several treasures were found to be missing and there was an investigation. It revealed the, fact that some forty-eight of the pious brethren had conspired in the theft and all were punished. In'the reign of toi I. the Jewels were sent to t Tower gand official nown as the Keeper of the Regalla was appointed to watch them. All the ‘reign of Charles Il., when the Keeper of the Regalia happened to be a benevolent and unsuspicious old gentleman nar- ed Talbot Edwards. One day a Col. Blood, disguised as a clergyman, and his wife called and asked to see the jewels, and they were shown, ‘The lady fainted and the kind-nearicd Edwards attended to her. The pair departed, but shortly afterwards re- turned to thank the keeper for his kindness and give him a small pres- ent. An intimacy sprang up between the two families. Then one day the colonel intro- duced his dashing son who fell in love at first sight with the presum- ably buxom daughter of the Edwaras family. t was not long before a wedding was arranged and the hour set for seven o'clock in the morning. Two or three family friends of the Bloods appezred as guests and, of course, they must see the famous jewels. Edwards took them to the treasure room, when they immediate- set upon him and tried to make off with the royal regalia. They were stopped by a member of the Edwards family who arrived opportuncely, but in the scuffle the crown.was badly vent, though no jewels were lost. In e late war it was commonly feport- ed that the jewels had been sunk in the Thames as it was feared the building would be a mark for the German. bomb droppers.

A writer In the New York Times says that most of the treasure of the Pope is held not at St. Peter's, but in the Sistine Chapel {n the Vatican, Here is the old linen lace robe worn in 1288 by Boniface VIIL., the Cetani Pope, a member of the same Certani family who to-day occupies one of the historic Roman palaces.

Listowel Banner | Hereand There | _ Lumber industries of British Columbia are sending spruce to Bos- ton and New York, fir to Florida and Cuba, new markets created with-. in the last’ few months. Demands from regular fir markets in Great Britain, Asia, Australia and South Africa are reported better than normal, The demand for Canadian flour is increasing rapidly in the Orient. This year 347,760 barrels of flour were exported trom Medicine Hat mostly for the East. Great Britain is Canada’s best customer for wheat flour, having taken 130,000 barrels of the total of 684,698 harrels ex- ported during the month of August. The Canadian Pacific Rockies are not “shot up” yet. Following a 80- day hunting trip, Mr. and Mrs. Kol- lock, of Los Angeles, told of deer that walked right up to camp; bears that prowled all around in numbers; rams and mountain sheep in abund- ance; lakes full of trout caught with every throw of the line. Despite alleged trade depression and “blue ruin” talk, during the woek ending October 31, 1925, 67 new companies were formed with author- ized capited of $151,658,000, as com- pared with 90 companies witk $112,- 614,875 capital the previous week and with 37 companies with $7,568,- 000 capital, the corresponding week of last year. During the 96 hours from Monday, November 9, to Thursday, Novem- ber 12, the Canadian Pacific Rail- way loaded a car of grain every 53 seconds, the total being 6,150 cars. On Wednesday 1,805 cars were load- ed and on Thursday 1,818, while the record for the year and for many years past was reached on Friday, November 138, when 1,994 cars were loaded. Involving the use of 3% million ns of crus rock, or about 70,- 000 carloads, approximately 1,000 miles along the Canadian Pacific Railway, Eastern Lines, have been ballasted with rock to date, Rock ballast is dustless’ and there is a very great increase in comfort for the passenger. Rock-ballasting also increases the strength of the track -and otherwise improves its physical condition as to drainage and other matters. The Canadian Pacific Railway has announced. the offer of three free scholarships to apprentices and oth- er employees enrolled on the perma- nent staff of the company and under 21 years of age, and to minor sons ef employees.
