BOY ROWDIES FINED Charles Fryatt. and Andrew Nichol, lads just onto-f their ’toens. were in A The winners in the field crop com- petition un‘dor tho-direction of the Proton Agricultural Society in tur- 111' ps are as follows : George Boll, 84 poinls; John McQuarrio, 791/2; Robe-rt Kinnoll. 78%; Walter Middleton, ’78; R. N.Fowlor Sons, 77*; Amos Clark. 76; Ernest Bell, 74*. Judge,‘ Archie Greer, Mansfield. Our advice to MP. Leeson and Miss Macl’hail is to take all that’s coming to them. Miss MacPhail’s method of «.lisposing of the extra allowance is, to our mind, the better plan, and if Mr. Leeson would adopt the same method he would have less trouble in disposing of his sux.)erflous wealth ; Miss MacPhail, the Federal repre- sentative, in her election‘ campaign, expressed the, idea that a $4,000.00 i ndemnit)‘ was too much, and pledgâ€" Cd herself not to accept more than $3500.00. True to her promise, she returned the (ktra $1,500.00 to the Fmieral treasury. though in the inâ€" terval she claimed to have learned that $4,000.00 is not an exhorhitan‘t allowance, and in future sessions‘ she may retain the full amount. And; why shouldn‘t she? Though we are! not. prepared to place her amongst! "tep-notehers" of our parliamentary" rem'esentatives, we are willing to! admit, she will measure up to a fair average and has an equal right with others to take all the law allows her. She was elected when it. was known that the indemnity was. $4,000.00 a; year. She knew it and so did the elâ€" ‘ ectors who put her there, and we see no reason for the return of $1,500.00 . a year from her as a special donation : to the Dominion treasury. . PROTON CROP COMPETITION _ wwvuc cu uuulll. Mr. Leeson evidently looks: upon it as money he shouldn’t have. Under the circumstances then, the only proper disptmition to make of it is to return it to the Government. y. :uubâ€" ing the $600.00 amongst the difl'crenl municipalities should be construed as a bribe, though there are some who regard it as such.

Mr. Leeson was elected at a ses- sional indemnity of fourteen hund- red dollars a year, but owing to a prolonged session, the extra $600.00 each W‘s voted and distributed a- mongst the members.
