"There was not one member of the Conservative group in the legislature that was present." (Applause). As the meeting was late in start- ing and much time had been' taken up in the discussion of merely routine matters, Dr. Forbes Godfrey on being, called on to deliver an ad- dress, stated that he did not propose, to take up any time. He had not very much to tell anyway. “You have heard it whispered all over," he continued, "apd especially by our U.F.O. friends, that the Lib- eral-Conservative party is made up of sports. That may be, but they are not "cheap sports" This coun- try has never had a Government or an Attorney-General, and in this case the Attorney-General is the Gov- ernment, who with, a sanctimonious air would declare that the law would be upheld and that all violaters would be prosecuted and then when confronted with charges that his own friends had violated that law in the very home of the Government would go back on his public pledge and give protection to these men." "I voted for the Ontario Temper- ance Act," said Dr. Godfrey. The serious aspect of the case is, he said, Officers were elected as follows--- President, Andrew Dodds; lst vice- president, Robert Flynn; 2nd vice- president, Mrs. J. J. King, West Toronto; 3rd vice-president, Charles King, Mimico; secretaries, Miss Bea- trice Howell and J. Earl Lawson; treasurer, Thomas Griffith. As to Mr. Raney himself, the only time he was a candidate in the city he had lived nearly a1 his life, he had been defeated. He had to go to East Wellington, where nobody knew him before he could get elect- ed. Dr. Godfrey referred to the tactics by agents of the Attorney- General in trying to "trame" charges against John Armstrong and Col. Lennox at Sutton and to the legal manoeuvre ot the Attorney-General, by which Col. Lennox was prevented from clearing his name from an un- just charge. Over twenty of these agents of the Attorney-General had been proved guilty of all kinds ot crime. He refered to the seizure of a wheel which had been used at a charity fair at Mimico, while the fol- lowing week at the Arena in Toronto, wheels and gaming devices in aid of charity were permitted to run unmo- lested. It would appear that the law only applied to those who were not the friends of the Attorney-General. Attorney-General Haney had; been defended by Rev. Ben. Spence in this matter. It was the ”Conservatives that had given Rev. Mr. Spence and his friends what they wanted, yet it was Mr. Spence and his friends who had used their votes to kilL the Con- servatives. It it had been a Con- servative Attorney-General, Mr. Spence and his friends would have been demanding an investigation and prosecution. In connection with the charges regarding that "Last Night," Attorney-General ftwney had practi- cally said: “I know 'you boys were there that night, but it is all right for you belong to our own crowd." And Rev. Mr. Spence had backed him up in this stand. Could you beat such hypocrisy?” Dr. Godfrey took, up charges by Attorney-General Raney against himself that he had bought his place in the Legislature by the issuing of tree scripts. He had been elected several times and once by acciama- tion long before prohibition and the necessity fer prescriptions had come in. He had never charged for a prescription, it was true. He had been in practice tor over 25 years and a, great many of his patients had reached the age when they required that particular treatment. Charles King, ot Mimico, headed the discussion on the need ot more systematic attention to local organi- zation, The Liberals, he said, were canvassing and doing other organi- zation work all the time in his dis- trict and he knew it was going on elsewhere in the riding. all the other offices being open to either men or women. A clause in the old constitution required a signed, pledge to support the successful nom- inee before a convention on the part of all candidates, but this was done away with, persons going“ before a convention-being merely required to give their word of honor. Amendments to the constitution were made, giving the women equal representation with the men in the general association, that is three women and three men from each of the polling subdivisions. All the women's Conservative organizations were affiliated in the same way as the existing subordinate men's or- ganizations. The constitution was also altered to provide tor one male secretary and one woman secretary, ill i, (lllEiiMflllf3 MEET M WESHIN The Liberal-Conservative Associa- tion of “rest York held its annual meeting in the Town Hall at Weston, on Saturday, the" place of meeting being crowded and a general spirit of desire for greater and more in- tensive activities in an organization way was manifested. The newly elect- ed officers were given a mandate to proceed at once to rally the Conser- vative forces of the riding and im-. petus was given the movement by the declaration that a Provincial e ection could be looked tor in the near future. "'l‘hat Last Night" seemed to be a burning one and Dr. Forbes Godfrey, M.P.P., tor West York, was called upon to tell about it. He did so and made the declaration that not one member in the Conservative group or the legislature was present dur- ing the festivities of that occasion. Frank Reeves was in the chair and those also on the platform included; Sir Henry Drayton, M.P. for West York; Dr. Forbes Godfrey, M.P.P. for West York; Hon. George Henry, M.P.P. tor East York; w. G. Clys- dale, Dominion Conservative Organ- izer for Ontario; A. J. Anderson, Len Wallace, Mrs. J. J. King, Mrs. D. Wells, Robert Flynn, Samuel Hiding, Dr. Hopkins, and J.

They were there from Sarnia in the west, Niagara Falls in the south, Kingston ‘in the east, and Bracebridge in the north, all just bubbling over with' en- thusiasm. It was a sight tor the old hard boil to sit back and look at that tcrowd. It sent the cold chills through one and an old warrier who 40 sum- mers ago flashed on the lacrosse field, was seen to slap an old acquaintance the benefit of the American manufac- turer, but for the benefit ofthe Can- adian workmen. It was necessary for all Conservatives to get together and do a lot of educational work, for this had been neglected during the war. They were needed to get togeth- er not only for political work, but a1- so for the good of the country. a, cabinet were supposed to be of the same mind, there had been no change in the Ministry. The duty ot the Opposition was going to be to see that the new taritrt is not so much tor Woody Taggart, who some steen years ago. used to follow a team call- ed the Elms, spoke on every occasion to tell the boys hoy they used to do it 40 years ago. adopted in the Sydney, N.S., labor troubles, and everyone had seen the differences of opinion as shown in the public utterances ot the Minister of Labor and the Prime Minister, but notwithstanding that all members of We are away again'. The largest crowd that ever attended a lacrosse meeting jammed the Sons of England Hall so that once you got in there you remained till 200 or 300 moved out to allow you to reach the street, Len Smith, the retiring president, was in the chair. No one ever faced a harder task, no one ever handled a crowd more ready to - fight, or cheer, Pat. Kelly, the old Markdale player, now of Campbellford. supplied the comedy, which was enjoyed by all. when they did that, it was not possible for the Conservatives to fight them. Members Of the Opposition had chal- lenged the Government on the policy President Bill Hanley, who learned the game in Midland, and when a student at Toronto University, played for and managed such teams as Var- sity never before or since has seen. He's a, lawyer. He knows the game. His hands are clean. Bill Marsden, the Aura Lee mentor. and boys' friends, and Charlie Coady, who quit the Maitlands because they would not give the midgets, juveniles and juniors a. Show. were there in the interest of the boys from Aura Lee Club. Bill Hanley sure nude a hit the crowd. Geo. Farr, the old Weston boy, was only one vote behind Fleming of Chatham, who headed the -poll. no claim of moral wrong or scandal. There was the question of the rail- ways, which, according to the Liber- als, had been' wrong and meant ruin. But when they got into power the only thing they could do was to adopt the Meighen policy, and, of course, First Vice-Pres. Dave Ingram, o Brampton. A man of strong char acter who knows the game. bn_the back and eXclaim, “Isn‘t it wonderful." 7 Never in the history of the game has such an able body of men ever been elected to handle the affairs of the greatest lacrosse body in the world, as well as look after the O.A. LA. tor 1922. Hon. George Henry reviewed con- ditions in the province from a politi- cal standpoint. The Government in harness did not know where it was going. The only opposition it had received was from the Conservatives. The Liberal leader was scarcely ever heard in the House. When he does take part in the debate it was to agree with the Government. He would not be surprised to have an election next fall, and the Conser- vatives did not propose to allow this session to close until they had made an examination ot the public ac- counts. He advised his hearers to Vfollow these public accounts sit- tings carefully, as there were going to be some very interesting dis- closures. The Government claimed a, surplus, but he was certain that light thrown on the disposition of the figures Would disclose a start- ling deficit. Class government. he said, could not stand in this coun- try. It was not consistent with a British type of government. Sir Henry Drayton did not start speaking until about 6 o'clock, and, in view of this, declined to take up any time. He said that in the mouse at Ottawa the number of Con- servatives was small and they had to devote al their time to watching what was going on. They had to do a" lot of guessing as well, toe the present Government was not doing any leading. The pre-election pledg- es of the Government were not being carried out. The only time when Pre- mier King's face looked pleased was when Mr. Crerar took the floor. Against the administration of which he had been a member there had been that in 1919, the majority for the Act was 341,661, with 21 per cent. ot the voters abstaining from voting. Last April, voting on the same lists, the majority was only 166,000, with 51 per cent. of the voters not exer- cising their franchise. It meant that we would have to be careful in the cause of true temperance or it was going to be injured. He took up the history of the administration of the Ontario Temperance Act and charge ed that it had been done with poor Judgment and much bias. The same bad judgment was in evidence in the attempt to throw to the wolves Sir Adam Beck and the hydro-elec- tric. There was bad administration in all these things and it was up to the Conservatives to set them right. In the Legislature to-day, the Liber- als and the United Farmers were the same thing. Hon. Howard Fer- guson seemed the only leader con- sistently on the side of the people.
