For di least on‘ce during the pre- sent campaign the l‘lltrlot lltls suc t-cedcd in telling ti truth. It sllys that Mr, Moighen. when in opposi- tion in 1911. moved the following resolution: I

“A ‘SUBS'l‘ANTIAL REDIit‘TlON IN THE IMPORT DUTIES ON Atlltlt‘llllfl‘lilt/hh I‘MPLEMEN‘I‘S IS NOW DUE ’l‘llE AGRICUI» TURIS'DS OF‘ CANADA,"

As usual

Here tire extracts from Thomas White's budget at town on June 6, 1919: “The tariff proposals call for a reduction under the general tur- lff from :7 1-: to 15 per cent. on t'lllllVillDf‘h‘, barrows, horse rakes, seed drills. manure sprcntlers and wt-ederfi and complete parts there- 27 .142 to 17 1-2 on pionng and complete parts there-
