‘THE DUTY 0F THE HOUR"

During the general election of 1908 a. pamphlet issued in Toronto with the captain. "The Duty of the Hour." was Hll-lCh iu evidence. Briefly it urged all Orangemen to strike a. blow against clerical as~ cendancy in Canada by voting against, the Laurler candidates.

. There was nothing extraordinary

about this appeal. For years a few Conservative newspapers, notably the Mail in the middle eighties. had advocated the same thing, but because the pamphlet came from the printing plant of the Orange Sentinel that was enough to condemn it.

The appeal had a curiously stimulating effect both ways. It

spurred the Conservatives to great- "er efforts to put Laurier out; it enthused the Liberals in constltu-l

ences where there was a large Catholic vote to greater efforts to retain Laurier in power by quietly presenting the pamphlet to their Catholic friends who were Conser- vatives. To accomplish this end the little essay was reprinted by the Liberals to the extent of many thousands of copies. One oi‘ the constituencies in which it was pro- posed to use the document to the detriment of the Conservative candidate was King's county, the most easterly riding in Prince Ed- ward Island, and in which there was a large Catholic population.

King's. from the day Prince Ed- ward Island came into Confedera- tionn. had secsawed in its political flffllfltlfflii- One time it would elect a Conservative, and then at the next election would switch to the Liberals. Two oi the present sena- tors. I-Ion. John MacLean. Conser- vative, and Hon. J.J Hughes, Lib- eral. represented the riding at different times. ‘Ithe candidates in this particular election were Mr. Hughes, Liberal, and Mr. AL. Fraser, Conservative, both oi‘ them being Catholics, and the Liberals had decided to make use of "The Duty 0i the Hour" to the fullest extent.

A week or ten days before polling there landed at Charlottetown two men who lt turned out came from Ontario. One of them approached the owner oi an express wagon and inquired at what hour the train for Souris left. He was informed 2.45 p.m. Then they inquired how much the express owner would charge to drive them to the railway station with a trunk; it was too large to go into the cab, an agreement was reached. the trunk was placed on the express and the two men got on, seating themselves on the trunk. It so happenend that the owner of the express was an ardent Conser- vative worker. and politics being redhot on the island at that time, he had been warned to be on the lookout for mysterious agents. Sus- picious of the two strangers, he kept his ears open. ,

On the drive to the station the two men were talking in under- tones. but presently one oi‘ them 111F801? himself and the driver caught the words. ‘I tell you, Bob, the contents of this box will nicely fix the tories in King's." This re- manc put the express man on his mettle. When they arrived at the station he placed the trunk in the baggage car of the train. saw the men leave. and then hied himself to the telephone office. Souris was sixty miles away and the scheduled train run was about three and a half hours. Calling up Souris on long distance. he got one 0f the leading members of the party to the telephone, told him about the mysterious strangers and the still more mysterious trunk. and repeat- ed the remark he had heard about "fixinr; the Tories of King's." This was enough warning for‘ the par-y leader. He cailed aiew friends to- gether and steps were immediately taken to get possession of- the trunk and its contents.

When the train al-rivcd at‘ Souris there was a large crowd, ilijzon the station platfcim- many Libtrals b:- Lng in the comppanywThcre were more, however. in the assembly hall across the street. Word had been sent out to the party xvorkel‘; in. the county to comr- into Soilris on that particular afternoon. ' and they would be supyfied with ammunition

which would mean absolute victory to the Liberal cause.

It was dusk when the train ar- rived. Several commercial travellers were on board. and the baggage man had quite a task unloading their trunks. A husky Conservative stalwart entered the baggage car and bidding good-evening to the truck handler said he wondered if there was an express parcel for him. "Dunno," said the railway man. “better take a. look around. I'm busy." The situation was a perfect one for the young fellow. He promptly spotted the trunk, of which a thorough description had been recleved from Charlottetown. While the back oi the baggage man was turned to him the young chap -pushed the wanted trunk to the

open door on the off side of the ' train, and shot it out into the arms of ha‘f a dozen of his friends who were uniting. In his ivay the Lib- . eral ammunition disappeared. Tum- l ing around to the baggage master, -the young fellow simply said, "Noth- iing doing." and withdrew with | great nonchalance, joining his

friends upon the platform. The ‘ Liberals searched the car, and then the entire train for the receptacle containing the ipamplets, but they could not find it.

The copies of ‘The Duty of the Hour." which was to do such deadly work in King”s county, had dis- appeared for all time. I could tell where they went but at this late dale refrain. After the election was over the trunk and its contents, heavily loaded with stones, found a quiet resting place in the waters oi Souris harbour. The election res- ulted in the Conservatives redeem- ing the county. Mr. Fraser being victor by 182 votes. Had that pam- phlet got into the hands of the electors before polling day it may be taken as an absolute certainty that ‘he would have been defeated by three time that figure.

Television-Telephony In Near Future

(AP. By Guardian's Special Wire)

IBiERiIsIN. Aug. 3i—-'I‘he German post office announced today as spectacular plan to introduce “tele- vision-telephony" in the near fut- ure.

‘Trials between Berlin and Mun- ich were reported to have resulted favorably. Postal authorities plan- ned to install a. television telephone net between the larger cities, fur- ther extension of the system de- pending on public reaction “because of the still high cost of apparatus."

The announcement was made while Germans still thrilled at what technicians called "satisfactory" souifd film broadcasts, which were demonstrated at the 11th German radio show by means oi a “tele- vising car."

Daily transmission of tone films taken from the ml! of a television car of the German radio company stationed in tire immediate vicinity o1 Berlin's radio tower captivated thousands at the radio show, which closed yesterday with a record at- tendance.

Scenes were shot with an ordin- ary sound picture camera from the top of the car and were developed and rcadv for reproduction after 75 seconds. The car was equipped with developing and transmitting appar- atus.

The technical side of the proced- um reveals that each picture is dissected into dots by means of a perforated disc. ‘The dots are con- vcrted into electric impulses which are broadcast on a seven-metre wave length while sound is trans- mitted simultaneously over an or- dinary radio wave.

Technical appliances permit transmission of 20 pictures a. sec- ond ' ' ' '

The receiving set is equipped with u large tube based upon the cathode Tay‘ 53550111‘ ‘I116 tube produces a short sircav of invisible electrons ‘which are tllrovm on a ilourcscont screen. The pictures appear clear.

The leg-breaking incident hap- pened in 1898 in the Yukon. Joe was matched with “Kid" Owens. a member of the Old North West Mounted Police. “I made just Ollf‘ bad mistake, but that was enough,“ Clarke said. "l had my feet crossed in the first round when Owens connected with my jaw. He didn't hurt my jaw but my ankle snapped when I went clown. I was on clutches for WWBERS."
