“He was last seen going' over the

parapet into the German trenches.”

What did you rind after war's fierce

alarms,

When the kind earth gave you a

resting place, _

And comforting nights gathered you

in her arms,

With light dew falling on your up-

turned face?

Did your heart beatt remembering

what had been?

Did you still hear around you. at

you lay, _ -

The wings or airmen sweepingby un

seen

The thunder of the gum at close of '_ day? _

Alinaiure stoops to guard your lonely

bed; `

.Sunshine and ruin fall with ihl-'II

calming breath; -

You need no pall, so young and newly

dead,

Where the Lost Legion triumphs _ over death. _ _

When with the n1orrow's dawn the buglmblaw, _ __ _

For the first time it summoned you

WHAT FIECENT STRIKES COST.

The reopening of the twenty Lynn

shoe factories, at` which a lockout was declared on April 18, following the demand oi employees for increased wagesumakes pertinent an inventory ot"reeults_ The tive months of enforc- ed idleness, it appears, have cost the companies $3,000,000 in decreased business, 'while the 12,000 employees have lost $l,500.000 in wages.

Du strikes pny As a further case

in point the report of the New York (‘.lt-y Railways Company for 1916, now published and covering the period of the carmen's strike, shows a deficit of 8148.053, as compared with a net income for the previous year of $1. 439.007. The road'n loss oi` passenger fares can nevcr be regained, and for both the strikers and the company the loss is total.

»lt' is a commonplace that the cost

of a strike musf be borne hy one of the parties to it. whether won or lost. At least, it is -an improvement to di- vide the cost of minimize the loss tbrcugh arbitration. Yet in 1915 ot 733 strikes fully reported to the Bur- eau of Labor Statistics. while 164 were won, 128 lost and 273 compro- rnissd, in only twenty~eight cases did employees return to work pending arliitration.

Mr. F. E. Muzzy. of Springiieivl,

blasts., who has been spending thc week here visitingthe rancheshe is interested in and attending the stock 'tolders' meeting, leaves for his home toruorrow .

He reports all the ranches in splen-

The large cash dividends show

what can be realized by competent management and low capitalization, as these ranches have been ably man- aged' by Messrs. John Anderson. R. E. Spillett and G. F. Dewar, M.D_

The increase in our annual subsidy; the financial assistance granted our Agricultural Depart-_ ment; the great improvements in the winter navigationf of the straits and in our connection with the mainland, all secured through the Borden Government, merit our hearty and grateful approbation _ The Military Service Act, and all other measures enacted by the Borden Government for the relief or foi the improvement, in any way, of the condition of our' soldiers at the front have my unqualified endorsation.

To carry to a successful issue Canada’s part in the-

war as provided for in the enactments of the late Parlia-I ment, a Union Government has been formed. To this Union Government I pledge my unqualified support, and appeal to you as a Wiirthe War Union Government can- didate. I ' . On the foregoing declaration of principle I most res- pectfully solicit, Ladies and Gentlemen of King’s County, your support at the forth-coming Dominion election, and l~ beg to assure you that if you do me the honor of elect- ing me to the Federal Parliament, I shall exert all my energies and devote my humble abilities to the advance- ment of your best interests.

Ladies and Gentlemen: 1, _

8 _ Six years ago Mr. A. McLean and myself were

elected to represent you in the House of {_C_7ommons_ _ As the result of the election then held the iberal-Conser. vative party came into power. During the years that have passed since then I have endeavored to the best of

my ability to procure as liarge a por_t1onPas possible of governmental advantages og my native rovmce. i`he Government of the party I was elected to support, has done much for the_betterment of our trade and com- merce and our agricultural 1nte_r_e_sts. It gave us_ the Car Ferry, increased grants to ag_1°ic_ulture, the addition of $100,000 annually to our provincial s1_1bs1dy,_secnred for our Province four members for all time to come, built a number of wharves for the convenience of our farmers and shippers, also dredged the docks at Chur- lottetown and elsewhere.

When it is considered that for over three years of

this period, thc Dominion revenues have been urgen-tI_v required for war purposes, I feel assured that our efforts are not unappreciated by the people or the Province, ir- respective of party. I am convinced that what has been done will prove a lasting benefit to the Province and will afford a -great impetus to our future prosperity.

-During the last session of Parliament I was' pleased

to support Sir Robert Borden in his endeavors to unite the two great political part1es_»wh1ch_ divlde Canada in one Government. Such_a consummatton would insure a more vigorous _prosecution of the war, and_would be the means of raising with the least possible friction the ne- cessary recruits to go 'to the assistance of our hard pressed braye boys at the front. _ _

I um highly gratified that a Union Government has

now been formed. It is composed of the strongest men of both parties and shall have _my full support.

At the last session of Parllament an Act was passed

establishing tnachirieiy for the holding of a Dominion election. It provided for the appointment of enumera- tors to make up lists of voters for all the polls. These will shortly‘be appoin‘.ocl_ May I be permitted to request that every possible assistance be given the enumerators in the p1'epat'et_ion of these lists, so that everyone in the County, -entitled to a vote, shall have his or her name on the lists before polling day. _

In thus giving an account of my Stewardship, per-

mit me to state I shall be candidate for this Country at the coming election.

The crisis which involves our Country is the most

important in its history. It devolves upon everyone to consider Well the* issue raised: are the people of Cana- da to leave unsupported_ our brave boys at the Front, who have so long and so well fought for the preserva- tion of our rights and liberties, and whose splendid deeds of heroism have covered Canada with glory and renown? It is impossible..

I respectfully ask for the votes of all true and loyal

men and women of this large and intelligent County of Queens, assuring them that the best interests of our province and especially our soldiers shall have at all

times my sincere support. -

I At 9 large and representative Convention held a few weeks ago I was unanimously nominated to contest this

County tnffayoi' of the Government and the active pro- secu lon o e war. ` _ The platform since enunciated by Sir Robert Borden is broad, comprehensive and statesmanlike, and should receive the unqualified support of all patriotic electors.

My_iniluence will be exerted towards the prompt

fo_‘(yvard1nt<gt<_)_f riecruits to relieve our gallant but wearied so iers a e ront.

I shall vigorously urge all needful improv ments in

all ourtransportation facilities. It is well kzown that congestion of freight, spring and fall, not only retards our prosecution of the war but paralyzes our trade, causes heavy losses to our farmers, merchants and shippers, and urgently calls for improvement. `

For nine years I had the honor of being at represen-

tative froni this Province in the Dominion House of Com- mons, durmg which period I tried to do my duty faith- fully, and I trust not without results. _ _ .‘
