Of war supplies for the expediuonary
force. and parliamentary committees
have dragged to light scandalous
facts:
There were rakeoffs on great guam
titles OF trucks. transport wagons,
boots. bicycles. field glasses, band
ages. etc. And in many cases these
rakeoffs were traced to men closely
associated with government officials
and members OF parliament.
A drug clerk, earning s14 a week
was found to have made a surplus
profit of IS 900 on a small order for
field dressings. His employer was a
member of parliament, and had OBJ
tanned the order through political pull.
The clerk had TO return the money.
For the first lot of motor trucks
bought $1,000 apiece was paid over
and above the usual price. A Toronto
agent got II. Motor tires and bicycles
revealed similar Irregularities. An

81 graft on every pair of binoculars.
Officers and privates testified that
the boots furnished them were $'like

pieces after two weeks wear. Sew
crai deaths were due to the resulting
exposure. over 1000 pairs were dis
carded by regimental boards. A Mon

we're over 20 years old. One OF them
had been rejected as too old at the
time of the Boer war"
It's sad to have our ideals shattered
by such scandals. We can't help re-
membering the lofty and superior vir-
tue with which Canada regarded us,
when the Taft reciprocity treaty was
under consideration. and how the do
minion rose as one man to Klplings
challenge, 1T is your own soul that

gers her immortal soul by doing bust

The Almighty Heart.

Maybe we Americans are vain and
over eager for approval Be that as it
may, we find deep satisfaction in the
kind words uttered by Sir Gilbert Par
ker in England the other day, coming
like music in the midst OF clamor of
defamation. animosity and misunder-
standing.
THE almighty heart" he says, ''is
sim stronger in the United States than
the almighty dollar.
Never has a neutral nation had
such problems as the United States
has faced with temperatures, cour-
tesy and moderation for which this
country cannot be too grateful The
American government has pursued the
only course possible to nation de-
sirious OF preserving its deservedly
high reputation in the field of diploma
cy, II has been in true sympathy with
the highmindedness and sensible ideal
ism of the American people with re-
gard TO the greatest events of the
worlds history.
IT is not surprising therefore. that
ali the comhatants in this great war
desire at least Americas good opin-
ion"
Such tribute helps us to live up to
the ideals that Sir Gilbert praises. The
job of walking the tight rope of neu-
trality is rather thankless one. The
true neutral is sure to offend both
sides and he left isolated and lone
some. Even our big philanthropic
work has been misinterpreted or ig-
norcd in some quarters. We can't help
wishing that more of the belligerents
would have the Intelligence and hon
esty to give us credit az least for our
good intentions.

MY PLEA FOR A SECOND TERM.

Having received the nomination for
the office of County Assessor, on the
Republican ticket, tor my second term.
| come asking for your support for the
following reasons: | have had two
years experience in the uffice and be-
lieve that l can give more and better
service than any new man, however
we'll qualified he may be, who has new
er had any experience in that line of
business. When any business man or
corporation has trained man to do a
certain kind of work efficiently and
we'll, does he fire him because some in
experienced man, needs job? No.
He keeps the trained man, He would
think anyone crazy, who would suggest
to him that his employee was third
termer, and should get out and give
some new man a chance, but, that
is the way some men want to run the
county business, which is the biggest
and most important business in the
county. Mr.. Voter, do you consider it
good business for the people to elect a
man to office, and train him for two
years at the county's expense, and
then kick him out just for political
purposes, and train another man? |
do not believe you do. Another ques-
tion; are these county Offices plums
with which the political parties are to
reward men for the influence they
have in building up their party? No,
l do not believe that you do. A coun-
ty office is public trust and should be
given to the man who can deliver the
most and best service for the money
paid. In this case | believe that
am the man. My opponent first an
nounced for sheriff, but failing to have
the courage of his convictions. he pull
ed out of the race. He then came out
for county clerk, and finding thet he
had an opponent in the primary, he
and said opponent got together and
fiipped nickles to see who should pull
out OF the clerks race and run for
ucbtcbSts FdtC pCiuk against
my opponent, he had to switch again.
Don't you think, my friends, that my
opponent should be voted down, for
two years at least, for not having the
courage Of his convictions, and making
the race for sheriff? But. it being i'm
possible for him to make that race
now, you will have to decide who W i'll
be the next county assessor. When
you go into the booth on the 7th day OF
November to make out your ballot
ask yourself these questions; Shall
| vote down man who has been train
ed for the past two years at the coun-
tvs expense, and put in new man?
Will the county be any better OH?
Will get any more or better service?"
When you have answered these ques-
tions, vote as your conscience dictates

AUTO WITH SIX OCCUPANTS
GOES OVER BANK

Last Sunday evening the automo-
bile Of Dan Houran, driven by his son
Tom, in which Mrs. Houran and chill
dren and Miss Anderson, six in num-
Der, were riding, went over the bank
at the approach to the east bridge at
Frenchtown and although the car
turned upside down in the ditch,
1demolishing the top and wind shield
and jamming up the radiator, all the
occupants escaped serious injury. The
party had started out east and just
as they crossed the bridge met an
other automobile on the high ap-
proach. The strong electric lights of
the approaching car were kept turn
ed on, which Tom says blinded him
so he could not see the road ahead
and caused him to turn out so far
that his car ran over the bank and
upset into the ditch. It is a miracle
that the occupants of the car escaped
without serious injury. This is an.
other accident, in which the lives OF
six persons were endangered, that
would not have happened had the
driver Of the approaching car shown
a little courtesy in observance Of the
road rule and turned on the DINNERS
when passing the other car.-Argylt
