F. Summerhayes, appointed by N. ‘W. Rowell. to the office of act- ing general secretary of the Ontar- io ‘Refor-m Association. is the same W. F. Summerhayes who for the past number of years has been in the employ of the liquor interests of Ontario in fighting local option and other temperance contests. ROWELL’S MANAGER A LIQUOR AGENT Mr. Summerhayes is the actual director of Mr. Rowell’s campaign. appoints speakers, issues “abolish the bar” literature and is other- wise the executive machine of the Liberal leader. Summerhaves was apaid agent of the liquor, men re- costly in Peterboro and other places and gained his living for years from the contributions of distillers and brewers. Mr. Howell, knowing these facts, chose Summerhayes as the best man to push forward a campaign designed to hoodwink the temperâ€" ance people of the province. “JIVV lJ‘vrâ€"v vâ€" Summerhayes was ’at his post of duty as usual this morning and will continue there.

Spence. secretary of the Ontario Branch of the Domâ€" inion Alliance, and the man on Whom Mr. Rowell relied to deliver the temperance vote in aid of the Liberal party.
