“No more daring lie has eve!‘ bee“ circulated by a set of political ed- ‘Ielltuififs than that w the effect um w. Bcmlett is s. friend of the b: interests. The simple fact of the matter is that from the mom- em when he was returned to’ WW" in 1W0, the present Prime Minister has labored night and day in_ the interests of the farmer, the worker and the ordinary niun on the street.

“No Premier in Canadian history has ever dealt more firmly with st. James Street and the flnarlctal powers than the man who heads the present Ottawa. Admin- irfution. He has required the banks and the investment houses to come to his terms in the flota- tion of necessary loans. He has established the Bunk of Canada as a super-bank with some of the pow- ers which the chartered banks used to cnioy. He has refused to allow the chartered banks to retain an exchange premium on their gold holdings, which are to be acquired by the national bank.

"He has passed stringent laws to curb abuses, long practised by brok- erage houses and on the stock ex- changes. He it was who introduced the resolution which led to the price spread and mass buying in- vestigation. He caused Parliament to adopt the Natural Products Marketing Act, and the two mess-- urea designed to ease the position of debt-laden agriculturists. He has put through conversion loans, with the result that the treasury ls sav- ing tens oi’ millions of dollars in hteflifl charges annually.

“Contrast the record of the Ben-

nett Government with that of Mr. ,

Mackenzie King. As has been said by a. contemporary, the conditions which the government is trying to clean up today accumulated under the King regime. During those nine yo... scores ‘of mergers, trusts and combines were formed in this country. Every morning, as one pic- ‘lred up the paper there was an- fiouncsment of a new trust and fies‘): securities with watered stock issued to the public. It was a. mad orgy of combines. What dld Mk. King or ‘Mr. Hepburn do in those nine years to curb this trend? The answer is, absolutely nothing. , “While the United States was depriving Canadian farmers of a market for over $170,000,000 worth of farm products and manufactures thereof, Mr. King and Mr. Hep- burn, sitting behind him in the House of Commons, made no move to offset this disastrous develop- ment. It remained for the Eennett Government. to afford our fanners adequate protection against imports l-{rom the offending country and to f~gupen the markets of the United flKlngdom to their products on a '; ‘preferred basis. The electors of .- flbronio East and other constituen- _7 gies can scarcely forget how the ‘- Liberal party in the last federal - Jhmpaign took a. corruption flmd "of $720,000 from the Beauharnols crowd who were ‘lonly a section of the biz interests of Montreal."

SENATE)! HUGHES AND MR. DYAL

Bin-I know m. Dyal of New Yorktobounrolfnbloinbothwu-d mdaction. Ialsoknowthothofs. orwamaveryastutomamhonool conclude that ho did not write much of the letter appearing in his name in the Guardian of the 17th. instant and the Patriot of the 19th imtant. Men of the Dye-l type d0 not, as a rule, write foolish letters containing wholesale palpable in- accuracies. They are too wary, to do that. when Mr. Macfadyen, Vice-President of the Potato Grow- em’ Association, wrote in the Guardian of the 12th instant that he would like very much to hear Dyal's account of his dealings with me, he evidently knew that the Dyal letter was being prepared.

All the statements in the Dyal letter, namely: that I ate at. the same table with Dyal in the Queen Hotel, that he shipped potatoes for" me in the name of the Dysl Pro- duce Corporation, and paid $500.00 in profits, that I shipped potatoes in second hand bags which

town, at his expense, etc. etc, are pure fabrications, made out of whole cloth, auddf written by Dyal show that his badness has made him luny. I shall give as briefly as possible the salient facts of the transactlonI had with Dyal. In one of my visits to Havana I met brokers from Neuvltas. a city on the north east end of Cubs. and the second in size on the Island. They told me they had been buying potatoes through commission Hous- es in Havana, but wished to buy direct from Prince Edward Island. They also told me their T6011!"- ments would be from 200,000 to 300,000 bags per year. I arranged to do buslnem with them, and the arrangements were as follows: They were to deposit in the Royal Bank 0g Canada, at Nuevitas half the, value of the potatoes they would order, the money to be transferred to the Charlottetown branch, and to be irrevocable for a period of time long enough to enable me to amemble and ship the cargo. When the documents would be all signed and the ship ready to Ball 011B money in the Bank here would b! paid to me, and I would make a sight draft or drafts for the bal- ance, against the whole shipment. In this way the consignees would be sure to get the potatoes, or their money lmck. and I would. be sure to be paid, and any Bank here would finance such o. transaction. The following autumn, after some correspondence, I receiver an order m: 0.000 bass at $1316 =- bas de- livered Nuevitas, the brokers sayln! this was as large an order as they could arrange for under the terms agreed upon. This was less than half the cargo of a small steamer, consequently I had to get 5P6“ with somebody shipping to Havana. I met Dyal at the Queen Hotel who told me he was in the Havana. trade, but could not sell a. whole cargo there. I told hlm of the order I had and showed him the corres- pondence. Ho jumped at the idea of linking up with me. and giving me space in his ship. He said I was in with the best people in Cuba, and had made a splendid In ngement, which would be sure to lead to a large and perfectly safe business. that his experience in Cuba. and his knowledge of the people would be a great help to me, but in as much as he would make no profit on the part of the cargo delivered in Ha.- vana he would have i0 ask me to give him half of the profit on my order. To this I agreed. Inter when the deposit was transferred from Nuevltas to Charlottetown, and when we had the ship chartered, he told me he would lose so much at Havana that he would have to back out unless I gave him seventy five per cent. of my profits, and to this I agreed. He said we were sure to make profits on future shipments and out of these profits he would be glad to recoup me for the help I was then glvinghim. When the documents were mpleted and the ship ready for sea, I got the money ‘that was to my credit.“ I made the drafts on the conslgnees in Nue- vitas and got smoney for them also, and instructed Mr. Hyndmsn, the Bank Manager. to my Dvul what I had agreed to give him. This closed the transaction regard- ing the 8.000 bass.

When the potatoes werrdeliver- ed in Nuevitns I had a wire from the brokers saying it was the best cargopver landed there, and if I could supply potatoes of that qual- ity I would get all the business of the city. A few days later I had another wire asking me to quote on ten or twelve thousand bags and saying that they hoped in a little while to be able to order o full cargo. I showed this telegram t Dyfll gnd asked him what I ‘ “ quote, seeing that the market was declining. Ho suggested 81.00 per bag. I replied thlt, the: was too much, mt these men seemed to be

Itisumallycousedbyforceornb- structlonsgainst the foot which al- lows the knee joint to be carried too far forward. Thus if the foot strikes an object, orfs placed in a hole or depression, while the rest ‘of the body is carried forward, than the ligaments holding together the up- per leg bone and the lower lag bone at the knee are put under great strain and are stretched or torn. The capsule or covering of the Joint. is torn and also the special ligament on inner side of knee.

If the injury is severe even more damage than that done to the out- er covering and the ligament .00- curs; even a part of the bone may

torn off. ‘ _ ' Fortunately, if the majority of these cases a little rest is all that is neoeuary. If the individual must. be about on his feet a. good crepe or elastic bandage should be worn for at least three weeks. A simple but effective method of

allowing the knee to heal properly is to apply strips of one-inch adhesive tape, placed half way across one another, from halfway behind the knee joint around the injury to half way across the knee in front. The knee should bakept perfectly straight while the adhesive is being applied. A new one should be ap- plied every five or six days for three w . In more severe cases, placing the knee in a plaster cast for five weeks is usually all that is necessary to obtain a complete recovery. This ul- lows the patient to go about his usual work, except of course that the knee cannot be bent, and he must walk with a "stiff" leg.
