ROWE \3C 3¢ .3C IC.IC BC BC 3¢ Ehe Purkam Review The Finance Minister‘s Apology When Mr White accepted an invitâ€" ation to address the electors of Southâ€" east Grey he had two courses open to him : to make a high minded appeal to a patriotic people passing through a perilons and unprecedented crisis, and to make a partizan appeal calâ€" culated to draw public attention away trom patriotic duty and diréet it to a question of holding office with its emoluments and other incidental adâ€" vantages. It is not to the Finance Minister‘s credit that he chose the more ignoble part: it goes to show bhow far he bhas descended since he began to associate himselt with men who have deliberately put themseives under the domination of a sinister plotter for the prometion of his own } selfâ€"interest. For the past two years the Grey County Board of Agriculture have, by the generosity of the County Council, been able to offer prizes at the Winâ€" ter Fair for live stock raised and owned by a resident of this county, In 1913 the prizes totalled $100 and of this amount $40 were claimed as prizâ€" es, Last winter the Board were able to supplemment the grant of the Coun:â€" ty Council and made the total prizes offered amount to $:i50, More than half of this amonnt was claimed and the Board feels that in justice to those who would like to exhibit this year, that the prizes be the same as they were last year, It will be noticed that these prizes are only for amaâ€" teurs, therefore those who have won money in open competition at any of our large fairs will be barred from winning these prizes. This should encourage as many as possible of our younger men to show at this year‘s Winter Fair. The prizes offered are as follows : For the best stallion, raised in Grey County, shown by an amateur exhibâ€" itor, resident of the County of Grey. Prizes, ist $25 ; 2nd $15. For the best sheep of a medium wooled breed, raised in the County of Grey and shown by an amateur exâ€" hibitor, resident of the County of Grey, Prizes, 1st $10 ; 2nd $5.00,. As many as possible should make an‘ effort to secure one or more of these prizes and thus advertise the stock of the County and for themâ€" selves as well. For further informaâ€" tion write For the best sheep of a long wooled breed, raised in the County of Grey and shown by an amateur exhibitor, resident of the County of Grey. Prizâ€" es, 1st, $10 ; 2nd $5.00. It would be fatile to deal with the mass of misrepresentations that make up the bulk of his Darham speech ; it will serve a more useful purpose to eall attention to his umpatriotic and uncalledâ€"for treatment of the Nationâ€" al Transeontinental Railway. For the sake of making a little partisan capital he yiolates trath and maligns blameless third parties. His exagâ€" gerations regarding the initiation and the subsequent development of the National Transcontinental enterprise amount to willal misrepresentation of the attitude and administration of the Liberal party ; his assertion that the Grand Trunk Pacific Company reâ€" tused to take over what it agreed to take over under the statutory conâ€" tract of twelve years ago is a deliberâ€" ate falsification. _ What the Grand Trunk Pacific Company originally agreed to take over was the _ completâ€" ed eastern division of the Transcon tinental line, and that eastern divisâ€" ion is not yet complete. What the company recently agreed to was a working arracggement with the Govâ€" erament that would make it possible to use the road in its present condi tion. It will nevyer be forgotten that ‘since the Borden Governmens came ‘ into office four vears ago it has been systematically endeavoring to damâ€" ‘ age the reputation of both the eastern division and the country it traverses, ‘ apparently for no other motive than to be able to proclaim the project a failure. Mr White, like other members of the Government, complains of the Liberala‘® preparations for a general election, such as the nominations of candidates and the circulation of litâ€" erature. It be had any saving sense of humor he would have refrained from reiterating this grievance. He knows quite well that a certain see tion of the Borden Cabinet wanted a general election, and would have bhad it but for some obstacle not plain to the general public. He shows that for months Conservative preparâ€" ations of all sorts for an election have been in progress. He knows that if there is no general slection before a session it will be on account of the Manitoba scandal and its disabling effect on Mr Rogers and his electionâ€" winning machize. And he knows that if Sir Robert Borden would give to the Govyernorâ€"General and the Canadian electors the assurance that there will be no general election till after the next session of Parliament the Liberasls would promptly and gladly cease to prepare for one. I; is too much to ask Liberals to abanâ€" don preparations while Conservatives continue them. Special Prizes at Guelph for Grey County Farmers For the best steer or heifer, any beef breed, 2 years of age or under, prizes, 1st $25 ; and $15. These prizâ€" es are open only to exhibits raised in the County of Grey and shown by amateur exhibitors, resident of the County of Grey, Bor the best gelding or mare, any draught breed, raised in Grey County shown by an amateur exhibitor, resiâ€" dent of the County of Grey. P rizes, ist $25 ; 2nd $15. $1.50 per year. $1.00 if paid in advance. T. H, BINNIE, Priceville, or H. C.

Extracts from speeches at Thanks. giying Mass Meeting, recently held in the City Hall, Regina, Sask. ; We had quite a time getting inte the trenches. Our route led through an open road which the Germans were shelling. â€" They had the range down pat and dropped the shells right over the road. Quite a number of our chaps were wounded and several killed, but we got through with the wire all right. How we managed I don‘t know, for a shell landed about ten feet in front of us and the road around us was sprinkled with cast iron. # Of the fellows who composed one tent at West down south only swo of us are left out here. One has lost an arm, one has pueumonia and the othâ€" er five have been killed. We are guing into the trenches toâ€" morrow night in all likelihood, so I shall write you at our next billet, Bruce Susherland~"is ;still at the English base, but as the engineers have lost a number of officers, L pre sume he will be uver soon. 1 suppose you have heard Dr Hart of the 5th battalion was captured at Ypres. If uncle James has not heard please let him know. He was order. ed out of the Greseimg station by his Colonel, but refused to leave some teilows © who were badly wounded and so becams a prisoner when his batâ€" talion retired. Alpin Smith (of Claude) came through Ypres unburt and asked to be remembered to you. We lost balt our section at Ypres four killed and four wounded. ‘Thea one of our chaps was wounded in the arm the other day, so our section 18 mostly composed ct new men.
