Editoi THROWlNi; IMH.niCAl. STONES A dead set is beins made against Premier Geo. S. Henry to oust him from his position as Premier of the Province of Ontario. A writ ha.s been issued at Wind-aor with the view ol disqualifying' him for a cabinet posi- tion on the Kfour.d that he is the owner of $25,000 worth of bond-' of the Ontario Power Service Corpor- ation and uh a menil)cr of the Cabinet, but not Prime Minister, negotiated â- with the Hydro for the purchase of the Corporation's holdings. There are probably very few persons who believe that Mr. Henry considered that he wa.s doinp anj-thinp wrong in pur- fhasintt thi'sc bonds at the high price which he paid. In the po.^ses-sion of these bonds he, with all the othe bondholder.s, stood to lose very heavily when the Corporation found it could not carry on, and the property was put up for sale by tender. The Hydro wa-s the only bidder. The fact that this stabilized the bonds was not ow- ing to any action of the Premier, who etill is a considerable loser by the possession of these bonds. It may have been what some call an indiscre- tion on the part of Mr. Henry to hold on to his bond.s, after he became the Premier, when it became a moral duty to relinquish them, but this would have entailed a loss of some seventeen thousand dollars, and there are ex- ceedinffly few people in this country •who would not have done exactly as Mr. Henry did to protect his financial interest in these bonds, as well as the value of the bonds to the other bond- holders. A.s we have said, there are few who would not have done as the Premier did, and those who rail at him for it should hesitate before throwing stones. The writ in question, however, will probably never get into the courts. week's issue. Another party, with all those operating in the province at tlie present time! Tlie idea is ab- surd. If there had been a real strong <. no-party opposition in the Ontario House the past few years it would have been better for the government and also for that oppo^tition. The opponents of the Conservative party at the last election were so weak that the people could not trust their affairs in the hqnd.s of improperly <iualifie(l pirson>. It is the duty of the op- position to oppose the government in all (to them) unnecessary expendit- ures, to bring to light any suspicious transactions and to suggest ways and means of securing better government for the people. If the opposition is weak in this le.^pect the govcrnnu'nl has a false sen^c of security and any- thing may be done. Two parties in the House arc all that arc requircil if the opposition party is a strong one. kicking it was kicked. • • • The Radio Comir:i.".8ion has decided that it has not been given sufficient power and asks for more. A great many people in this country think Mr. Charlcsworth has already got too much power. .What is wanted is less power and cheaper license or no lie Pedestrians Upon King's Highway Must Carry Light NEW REGULATIONS TO BE PUT IN P^ORCE BY DEPARTMENT TO ENSURE SAFETY „ , , , • ..

The Act reads in part as follows: "Walking or travelling on foot on ity to visit Great Britain. In addi- tion to those engaged in agricultural pursuits, it has been stated that a great number of Ontario's profession- al men, during their college days, visited England and Scotland as a result of getting the job of tending cuttle in transport.

Many people would like to ."â- ec Mr. Charle.-iworth go back to his uditorial work. A milk probe is at preesnl in full swing to enquire into the cost of milk to the producer and consumer. There appears to be too much of a spread between the two prices paid. Ac- cording to evidence brought out dur- ing the enquiry it was found that the holders of preferred stock received two shares of common stock to take care of the additional profits. It ap- pears to us that one reason why many industries in Canada have not reduced prices and rates is the prevalence of watered stock on which dividends have to be paid. Many industries in good limes presented surplus shares with those already in existence and now have failed to re-organize their busin- esses in keeping with the times. Hence the price-s remain high for the consumer, who is forced to curtail buying with the resultant closing of factories. It is time for the scal- ing down of the paper value of capital in private public utilities and manu- facturing enterprises to help bring .prosperity back. Farmer To Lose All Some thirteen years ago an Elders- lie farm of 12G acres was sold foi §7,000. The purchaser paid in princi- pal, interest and taxes during the time he was on the farm of $5^900. This spring he is leaving the farm and losing all he paid on it. This is the direct result of the depreciation in farm values owing to the low price of farm produce, and, in many manufac- tured articles, the price being as high as before the depression set in. What is true of this Elderslie farmer's plight holds good all through this pro- vince. A bill is -before the Ontario Legislature to .give the purchaser, whose property has decreased in value, his equity in the real estate, but even though the bill becomes law, which is "doubtful, it would not be ret- roactive and would not help those who have lost all they paid on their pro- perty. â€" Hanover Post. When Chickens Bother EDITORIAL ITEMS WANTS ANOTHKR PARTY; "There must be a new independent party with a new independent policy." These are the words of the Weekly Sun in a front page editorial in last Hereafter, if you want to hunt rab- bits or anything else you will have to pay a gun license of one dollar, if the bill sponsored by the Minister of Game and Fisheries becomes law. • • • They have been testing out the noar-beer made legally in the U.S.A. and find it is not intoxicating. What a disappointment! Canada had the same experiece a few years ago, but spurned the liqu'd as a too-near ap- proach to buttermilk. Instead of People in this, as well as in every other town, have from time to time been troubled during the summer months with the neighbor's chickens. Now that in a few weeks gardening will again be the fashion, perhaps the following scheme of getting rid of the nuisance may be valuable. It is the old scheme of tying a card or piece of paper by means of a short thread, to a grain of corn. When the fowls swallow the corn, the cards dangle from thjeir beaks, thus frightening them home. A message is written on the card similar to the following: "I have been in Mr. Smith's garden, where I should not have been, so kind- ly shut me up." If this does not bring results, a louder message may each time replace the former one. before dawn, eVery per.son shall carry a lighted lamp in such a position clearly visible for a distance of 200 feet in each direction." This act is intended to avoid accid- c:it3 on the highway. For some time it has been felt by the Government that some new regulation was neces- sary to protect those driving ears, against danger of accident resulting from running down persons upon the public highway after nightfall. From now on everyone not carrying a suit- able light who receives injurie.s on any road will be quite unable to re- cover damages from the motor car driver. It is no unusual thing while driving at night at a sharp turn in the road to come suddenly upon some- one walking, often times in the centre of the road. That there has not been a great many more accidents, due to this carelessness, speaks well for the care taken by most motorists while driving after dark.
