Mr. Corley was lifted into a local law office at Meaford, but after re- maining there some time he decided there weren’t enough cases to keep l him busy. About this time he fell in with A. Claude McDonnell, himself a rising young lawyer, who decided that Mr. Corley’e activity in and knowledge of politics would be a good asset. So the two joined forces and Mr. Carley got his first taste of city life in Toronto. Mr. Corley became quite a brilliant campaign speaker, and finally became political manager for agendeman who is now a local celebrity, but whose nut name ia Jim. After the latter hegantoenjoytheh-uitaof once. he M r. Corley was born on a farm, but at the early age of five he had the shrewdness to see that there was nothing ahead but work, so he man- aged to get off the farm. and after making several kinds of a reputation in the community, undertook to go to school when the hunting and fishing weren’t good. He learned to read and write, and to figure some, and although he objected strenuously was forced in- to a High School, but seemed to have a deep rooted objection to wasting the hours in study. He also found fault with the curriculum, and gave it as his opinion that the French master would be all at sea with the language if he should ever get into Paris. Mr. Corley finally managed to obtain his discharge from the High School, and entered Trinity College, but the hours of study there were not just to his liking, and be abandoned attempts at higher education and decided to go in for law .

' Might not some Liberal of Ferguei arise at the meeting on Tuesday night and ask whether the Liberal party for a generation did not denounce the Conservatives for going about the {country promising post offices, custom 1 houses. wharves, docks and other bribes to constituencies on the eve of general elections? “’8 have two political parties in Canada. One sinned i in this way and was denounced up hill ‘ and down dale for its brazen use of the public revenues for campaign purposes. But at that time half the people were arrayed against this form of corrup- tion. Now this second half of the: people have. lost all conscience in the' matter. As the Conservatives are now met. with the statement: "Your. party Used to (in the same thing,” so the Liberals in time to come, when ; out of oflice, willsee the constituencies ,' brihecl right and left by the promise; of public works, and their mouths will he closed because they did the same thing shamelessly when in office. ' \Vhile we had one party in this respect. clean. decency had a chance. 5 l 5 l The Liberal electors in question seem to feel pretty confident that they have got into power. They seem to feel 'pretty sure that the spoils belong to the victors. and that all they have to do is step up and administer their share. A town council might prorerly have a suggestion to offer as to the site fora new post office, or with some show of decency a meeting of citizens might be called to consider such a questionâ€"but. perhaps, never before in the history of Canada wasa meeting of those who voted right called to choose a site for the post ofice that was promised during a campaign. I was told that five days before polling! a picture of this promised post office was prominently displayed in Fergus, with the object of influencing the voters. The same kind of thing was done in nearly every constituency in Canada. It is to be hoped that the new Fergus post office when built by the Liberal party on the site selected by the Liberal electors. will be gener- ously thrown open to public use. of the Liberal electors of Fergus to decide on and recommend a site for the new post office. The. notice is signed by the president and secretary of the local Liberal Association. . _-.. -Q..." ~_~_ .__.___ â€"-~ * ‘ MUSKUKA;n o 3’ n o 2 m c 3 '0 Willing workers all over the Domin- ion are organizing little hands for itamp eelling.
