C a-umhwduph ‘edâ€" «Bir Wilfrid Laurier has § that no ‘Liberal candidate n:!,nur in the field in Hochelaga, Quebec, to oppose the return of Mr. . Coderre, who has been appointed to the. Borâ€" den Cabinet. While this suggestion will not have the enthusiastic= ap: proval of the Liberals of that=riding who were confident of their ability to wipe out a Conservative majority of 1300, yet in the light â€"of the reasous given by the Liberal Chieftain 16. will doubtless be carried out. As ~Sir Wilirid points out owing to the fast mt Mr. Borden has not yet announcâ€" ed his policy on the navy policy. the issues could not ‘be clearly _ defined, and the opposition to â€" the Gove:nâ€" ment candidate would have to be aasâ€" ed largely on speculation as to what that policy is to be. The outcome of a contest of this kind, no ~matter which way . the election might go, would be unsatisfactory, the..verdict being based on speculation: [ rather than the fixed policy of the ‘Covern: ment on the great naval issuge. / 7 Advertising rates reasonableâ€"and will be made known on application, Thursda If there was any truth in the arguâ€" ments used by the Conservative party‘ in the last Dominion â€" election . the election of Woodrow Wilson .to . the United States Presidency seals (Canâ€" ada‘s doom. The general lowering of the tariff promised by the nex preâ€" sident making it advantageous _ for Canada to sell more of its . natural products in the United States . will undermine our loyalty and result . in annexation. This diversion of trade to north and south lines of >xarlway will have the effect of _ destroying Canada‘s great arteries of commerce connecting the east with the west and leave only streaks of rust as a reminder. of the great _ railways of a formey day. To save Canada from this terrible fate it is . surely the immediate duty of Premier Borâ€" den to forestall the action of Conâ€" gress by immediately placing a high export duty on all Canadian products entering the United States. Itâ€" canâ€" not be conceived that Premiet Borden and the noble eighteen will _ now stand placidly by and see this country go to everlasting destruction. Canadians can certainly not â€" comâ€" plain of anyv lack of variety n'l _ Athe naval propositions. H _ reports _ are true and we correctly interpret© the reason of recent Cabinet changes, When the Commons meets on the 21st of this month there will be at least lour naval propositions before the country. There is the Bourassaâ€"Nanâ€" telâ€"Pelletier cry of no navy, no conâ€" tribution, no nothing; there is _ the Monk attitude of neither navy . nor. money until after a reference to the people; there is the Borden idea of ‘an ‘"emergency‘‘ contribution _ with some future policy to be worked out as opportunity allows, and there is the lmu'i;t policy of a Canadian Navy to be built in Canada, as ,far as possible of Canadian materials, manned by trained Canadians, .. and maintained under the authority â€"of the ‘Canadiar Governmentâ€"but ready ~at ‘ahy emergency to be placed at the disposal of the Imperial Government. The choice should not be . dificult.

"* The ‘The %fl‘" of. the Departâ€" méng 6f Ligbbr, Ottawa, for the year Â¥hded March 3!st last has been is sued‘ Probably the feature of it in which‘ most people are interested is the operation of the Industrial ADisâ€" putes, or Leniieux‘ Act. The number of industrial â€" disputes generally reported for the calendar year 1911 is somewhat .above the figures reported for . theâ€" previous year, being 97 as against 84. The strikes were chiefly of the smaller orâ€" der, and the record of the year as to actual.loss of time and other matâ€" ters would have been _ particularly pleasing but for the prolonged westâ€" ern coal strike. The strike total_for ‘he year 1911, however, though highâ€" ~râ€" than for the few years immediate . preceding, is very much below the record of rine or ten years ago; h! 1902, for instance, the total for the year was 123, and in 1903 the figures: stood at 160. Having in mind the large increase of population durin( the intervening. . period, the present regord would seem to show some imâ€" provement of feeling as between emâ€" ployers ~and + employces. ‘Of the 97 disputes"of the past year the buildâ€" ing trades were responsible, as usual, for a larger proportion than any other single group of industries, disâ€" putes. in the building‘ trades having totalled 30 for the year; the groups of industries coming next in _ order were the metal~ workers, . clothing trades and â€" transportation indusâ€" tries. s «2 em‘s=‘â€" Under the above headingâ€" the Baockâ€" ville Recorder, of which Hon. G. P Graham, exâ€"Minister of Railways, is the owner, maxes the following caustic comments upon theâ€"action of Hon. T. Crothers in refusing a board of conciliation to the Canadian Broâ€" therhood nf Railway Employees who have since gone on strike:â€" The Minister has disclosed incapacâ€" ity to realize the gravity of a situaâ€" tion or has arbitrarily refused to give to the workingmen the henefit of the means of redtess which Parâ€" lHiament intended they should ‘have, and the strike order was issued sharp on time. Through his ‘refusal to allow the labor legislation, care fully devised and successfully to be put into operation, Mr. Crothers has precipitated a strike which may have serious results. Mr. Crothers‘ arbiâ€" trary action in siding with the comâ€" pany and refusing the men a board is in striking contrast to the pracâ€" tice of his predecessor in office, Hon. Mackenzie King, who, when corporaâ€" ‘fion- objected,. and . there were groundsfor believing that a strike would take place, never failed to esâ€" tablish a board of investigation, and to himself name a representative for ‘th‘ company where the company reâ€" used. The excuse given by Hon. Mr. Croâ€" thers for. hisâ€"inaction was that the demands of the brotherhood included employees under some thirtyâ€"six difâ€" ferent headings,â€" and that no . one board could deal with these. This is little more ‘than a confession of in ability to deal with a situation . beâ€" cause it presents some difficulties. Other boards have dealt with just as complicated railway disputes . sucâ€" cessfully in the past, and. that withâ€" out entering into the details of each subâ€"divigion of labor, but by .estabâ€" lishing board rules which were â€"sucâ€" cessfully worked out afterwards. The presont Government appears not only unable to enact useful legislation but incapable olâ€"applying that which it inherited fromâ€"the Laurier regime. â€" The ‘Tory: speakers and |press, so garrulous atâ€"the time of,the G. T. R. strike. are now conspictously . dumb on the matter of this one. >3 TO FIGHT FOR PRESIDENCY Judge Jarvie, the only living memâ€" ber of the original Ontario . Poultry association, annotinced his candidature for the position of president . of the Ontario association, the elections to be held at Guelph next month. Thirâ€" ty years‘ connection . with chickens makes Mr. Jarvis the dein of the inâ€" dustry in this country. Incomptence or Worse Close and _ intelligent observation reveals the fact that the blight . is due to an invissBle parasitic plant which at first forms, under the lower leaves. of the stalks and .gradually overspreads the whole plant. It . finâ€" ally finds its way down to the > tubâ€" ers, first attacking those nearest to the surface, and . the whole ~plant soon succumbs to the march of â€" the destroyer. But, like other enemies of plant life and plant production, ».â€" it can be overcome. There is a remâ€" edy. It is spraying with a Bordeaux mixture which consists of 4 . pounds of fresh slaked lime, four pounds . of blueâ€"stone and forty gallons of . waâ€" ter. This mixture is applied <by means of a hand horse pump attachâ€" ed to a barrel, mounted on a cart drawn by a horse. w people of those countries, to those who have inhabited them for many long centuries; to those who _ had reared them to a state of civilizaâ€" tion when the great calamity of Otâ€" toman conquest spread like a wild wave over that portion of the earth, and buried that civilization â€" under its overwhelming force." Mr. Gladstone believed that . the Balkan states should be permitted to work out their own destiny . without interference from outsideâ€"powers. The principle laid down by Gladstone in 1879 is toâ€"day being recognized by the Powers, who are keeping out of the conflict and are apparently ready to welcome a confederation of the Balâ€" kan States following the driving _ of the unspeakable Turk out of Europe. LEMIEUX ACT Montreal, Not. 11.â€"That the Lemâ€" ieux act, . providing for the nominaâ€" tion of a Board of Conciliation to inâ€" quire into disputes between employer and employee is constitutional, _ and that consequently a board namcd to look into certain differences, between the Montreal Street Railway and . a few of _ its employées was regularly and legally appointed, is the .. tenor of a ruling handed down. by< ~Justice Lafontaine this morning, in a . case which has been occupying the. attenâ€" tion of the local Superior Court off and on for the past two years. As will be remembered, the appointâ€" ment of the board, which was comâ€" posed of Justice Fortin, J. L. Perâ€" ron, K.C., and Charlemabne Rodfer, K. °C., was attacked by the Montreal Street Railway on the grounds that the act, in virtue of which Hon. Macâ€" kenzie King, at that time Minister of Labor, appointed such board, . was unconstitutional. > Is the potato rot nature‘s method of stemming overâ€"production,: or .is it due to certain atmospheric ~conâ€" ditions fostered by foggy . weather and rainfalls? These are only quesâ€" tions suggested by the fact that, the rot generally appears when the crop is heavy, and is worse at â€" certain times when damp, foggy or rainy weather prevails. But, while these conditions may accompany . potato blight they are not the cause of it. It is said that the spraying may be done five or six times during" the season at intervals of ten days, at a cost of little more than $2 per acre. ‘The first spraying should be done towards the end ofâ€"July. This remedy has been tried. this . season, and has proved effectual against rot, and it certainly pays well for she little time, trouble and expense conâ€" nected with it. Clip this out, . fyle it away and try the remedy on your next potato crop. P It is understood that Mr. D. â€"| Rudd is definitely in the field for t Mayoralty of Guelph for 1913.
