He said the Lea Govern- ment had no platform in the last election. but asked the people to llldsc them 0n their record which they certainly did and left them out in the cold. and returned a gov- ernment which would look after their interests and which have Proved worthy of the confidence Placed in them. He asked for the hearty cooperation and support of the electorate to return the Prem- i" Ind 711-‘! Dlfty to power. Resolutions The following resolutions were passed: 1. That we the Conservative el- ectors of the third and fifth districts of Prince County here duly assem- . ‘bled do hereby most stronglv ex- bfess our hearty support of the MiacMillan government. At all times this government has ghown that it aims to look after the best interests of this province and its electorate.

Signed F. F. May. chairman: J. A. MacPhee and Cyrus ll‘. Gallant ' of Wellington. M]: Morison in a brief speech thanked the electors for his nom- inatlon and promised to serve them in the some wholehearted manner as he had done while a member of the council. He had great faith -in the Conservative party and with the oo-operation of the delegates and their friends he was confident of winning the dis- trict for Prince County. He refer- red to the past record of the Con- ‘servative party as one that he was not ashamed of and, that he would keep the high ideals of the party before him when elected, as he had every confidence that he would be. Mr. Mac-Neill received a. great ovation when he came forward to thank the delegates for his nom- ination. He promised them that he would fight for their interests in the Government as he was now doing at the council board. He outlined the many benefits that he and Mr. Manson as Mayor had brought to the workmen of the town since i927. l-le and Mr. Man- son had gone down and interviewed the Government and obtained large grants from them. These grants have been the means of giving employment to the work- men of the town when other work was scarce. Ever-y year renewed grants have been given by the ore- sent Government and also by the Bennett Government on a fifty fifty basis. With two Conservatives in the House instead of two Lib- erals for ‘the Fifth District of Prince, he predicted that they would continue to receive more than their share from this Gov- ernment. He spoke of the high re- gard in which his father and brother. the late Hon. James A. MacNeiii and late Hon. L. M. Mac- Neill had been held by the party and the people and that he would endeavour to carry on as they had done for his party and country and the citizens of this district. Premier Speaks The Premier "was received with hearty applause and congratulated the convention on their unanimous choice of their candidates. It save him great pleasure to welcome two new corners, E. W. Manson, and D. F. MsoNeill to the party. l-le was pleased to say the character of tho candidates is of the highest type which is s good sign slid angers well for the success of the party at the coming election. Premier MaoMillan referred in highest terms to the late Hon. James A. MaoNeill and predicted for his son, D. F. MscNeill. equal success. Mk. Manson who is an outstanding birsiness man in Sum- mssside will also receive his sup- port and he knew that he would have tho support of the whole fifth Dishiot. In meskibl 01 "i9 nomination of Hon.

He denounced the criticism of the ppcsition olassing them as an ezgravagant Government. The Premier said it was their intention to look after the interests of the people as eco- nomically as possible, but not at the expense of old age pensions and other necessary worthy ob- jects to assist the rank and file of the Province. He referred to the recent addition ti: the postal ser- vice of a daily airmail service, which brings the Island in tune with the other provinces in up to date postal communication. The Premier reviewed the record of his Government in public works, agriculture. increased subsidies, and other benefits all ci.’ which had been carried on under great dif- ficulties. The Premier expressed great confidence that the Conser- vative party would be returned as the Liberals have nothing to offer the people. The present govem- menP. has done many things for the movince and brought more money to the province than any other government. He. praised the work of Prime Minister, Hon. R. B. Bennett, and whet he has done for Canada putting her in the leading ranks of the foremost countries in the world. Her re- sources are intbct and she is com- ing out of this great depression as no other country. The Premier's brilliant speech was interrupted with a. report that the High School was on fire. Hon. Dr. MaoMillan expressed his regret in learning of such a disaster as in these times towns‘ or provinces could ill afford such calamities. The Rrewnler in closing expressed confidence that his party would be returned and thanked the delegates most heartily for their loyal sup- port and for the encouragement that this wonderful convention had been to him and his colleagues. Hon. G. Shelton Sharp gave an able address on the work that is being undertaken by his Govern- ment in providing work and giving a. hard surfaced road through the main highways of the province. The meeting was cut short by the announcement that the High School was burning down but in spite of this bad news three cheers and a "tiger" were given for the Premier and his supporters before ‘the assembled men went to render what assistance they could at the fire. The meeting closed with the King-S. ' Hon. Thomas MacNutt and his colleague, Hon. Adrien F. Arseunult, K.C., M.L.A., who were unanimously re-inominated last night at a con- vention of the Conservative electors for the Third District of Prince, are well known _to the electorate, iiaing served their district since lion. A. F. Arsenault Hon. Adrien F. Arsenault first ran for his party in a by-eloction in 1921 when l-Ion. Aubin E. Arsenault. who represented the district at that time, was made Judge of the Su- preme Court. Since then Mr. Ar- senauit has never been defeated. Winning in the by-election" of i931, he was elected again in 1923-1927 and I931. His nomination last night is the fifth time he has been chosen to represent his district. Born at St. Chrysostom in the District of Egmont Bay, My, Arse“- ault is well acquainted with the needs of the fishermen and farmers, and has always pressed their claims in the House and succeeded in get- ting for them many concessions. Ma Arsenault is the son of Steph- en Arscnault, and their family has been connected with political life for many years. l ‘Mr. Arsenauit has served under five ircmiers, Hon. John H. Bell. leader of the Liberal party, when he first entered the House; Premier Saunders, Premiu Lea and in the present Government under the late Hon. J. D. Stewart, and now inder Hon. W. J. P. Maclvlillarl. He is therefore well versed in politics and is well known as an able and gifted speaker, never falling to carry out his point. He is a member of the Cabinet and is on the Board of Ed- ucation, having been successful in getting many educational advan- tages for Prince County and was in- strumentsl in placing branches of the Carnegie Library in his district. Mr. Arsenault's nomination was re- ceived with round after round of applause, and it is safe to ssy he will be returned with a larger ms- porlty than ever. \ LA‘ A NQZJ magma-m a H6 l-lon. Thomas MlcNul-t Hon. Thomas MacNutt, Minister of Agriculture, received the unanim- our. nomination last night for his district, which goes to show that the electorate is satisfied with the ad- ministration of the Government and with the manner in which Mr. Mac- Nutt is taking care of his Depart- merit. Son of the late James MacNutt of Maipeque, one of the pioneer farmers of the district, Mr. Mac- Nutt is held in the highest esteem in his district. During the term of the present Government he has car- ried on an active policy of progres- sive farming which has already proved its value to the farmers. Mr. MacNuttis first election was in 1921 and since that time has only known one deefat. The confidence of the electors in again choosing him as their candidate is much to his credit, and. we predict for him a large majority at the coming provin- cial election. In the House, Mr. MacNutt has ably defended the agricultural poi- icies of his Government and proved beyond- question that/the MacMillan Government has done more for one farmer than any previous govern- ment. In the nomination of Messrs McNelll and Manson it is evident that the selection of these Con- servatlve candidates to contest the Fifth District of Prince is a choice in line with the broadest ideas for progressive government and is a veritable act‘ of thankfulness to the Premier and his good Government. These are two business men with records of integrity and fair deal- ing-men such as one would fecl it a duty to his home, his district and his province to support in ‘their aspiration to legislative hon- ours. Mr. D. ‘F. MacNeill Mr. McNelll is a son of the late James A. McNeil], a gentleman who was honoured and respected wherever he was known. who ni- ways did a man's job well. whether it was as Chief of the Fire De- partment in his home town or as Commissioner of.Public Works in the capital. Everyone remembers James A. McNelll as a gentleman. For a number of terms he was Mayor of Summerside, and made his debut as a local legislator in i908 winning in this and every suc- ceeding contest for provincial leg- islative honours, (except in 1927), until the time of his regrettable decease in 1927. He represented the same good district that his son last night received the candid-iture to contest-in the oncoming elec- tion. Anyone who had dealings with James A. McNelll a Sons knows why this firm has a reputa- tion for fair dealing. Any of the provincial legislative representa- tives of his time, who are now liv- i lng can vouch for the integrity of the late lvlr. McNelll, whether as Commissioner of Public Works or as representative of the Fifth Dis- tricl, of Prince. Nor was the Hon. James A. McNelll the only member of this family who served his Dis- trict in the Provincial legislature. l-Ion. Leonard McNelll a worthy son of a good father was Minister of Public Works in the Ministry of the late l-Ion.,J. D. Stewart at the time of his death. He was as his father a man of irreproachable character. The late Hon. Leonard MlcNcill and Daniel F. McNelll were the sons who were in part- nership with James A. lVlcNeill. Dan the only one of this firm now living is a strictly fair and honest business man- whose dealings have brought him into touch with farmers and traders all over the country. He has for twenty-five years been a member of the_ Fire Department. and is now president of the Bummerslde Driving Park. He is now and has been for some years a. member of the Town Coun- cii where he is known to be a live wire always with. an ambitious de- sire to further the best interests of the town. Through those late years of stress when commerce brought small returns with which a business man could carry on, it has often been remarked how con- slderately Mr. McNelll hss dealt with his customers. Considering Mr. McNeiiYs busi- ucss ability and, the other qualit- ies which he inherited from his parents and shared with his de- ceased brother he cannot but be regarded as a worthy candidate for Nanking Cafe WATER STREET, SUMMERSIDE Opposite Holmarfs.

Mr. Manson received his prelimin- ary education at the Surnmeraide High School and with s. further tutoring at St. Dunstans College he was well qualified to become clerk in the J. A. Gourlie drug store. Summersidc removing later to take a. position in Doddis phar- macy, Charlottetown, Subsequently ‘he worked for fourteen years in the employ of R. T. Holman. For lcn years he was a member of the Summerside Town Council and was Mpyor for two years. He served for some , ars as deputy prothono- tary and clerk of the County Court in Summerside. Early in the fox game he branched into the business, made a success of his venture and so studied fox values as to qualify as a fox inspector under the Canadian National Sil- ver Fox Breeders Association. 0n the decesse of Mr. A. C. Rogers he bought out the Rogers share in the well known firm of Rogers and Arnett. Receiver under the Farmers’ Creditors Arrangement Act and is doing good work as intermediary between the farmer and.his cred- itors. Needless to say this is a. pos- ition in which a. knowledge of business, good sense and fariness are essential to get best results for both debtors and creditors under this act which is in very truth "An Arrangement Act." Consider- ing the popularity of both candi- dates and the excellent things. done for the people by the Mac- Milian Government it is known that the Liberals will “have to go some" to elect a man in the Fifth District of Prince.

In some states the average is $100 and a few expert trappers are known to earn over $500 a. year. The James Fur Farm of New Westminster. B. C., are advertis- ing ranch bred fisher for sale. They will sell them as trios, pen bred and pen born in 1935. They claim they have been raising them successfully for three years. Drs. B, L. Live and T. F. Cairns. veterinary surgeons of Edmonton. Canada. performed an unusual Caesarian operation on a. silver fox female, April 22. The vixen and her seven pups are alive and well at the present time. The Sacony ‘Transportation Company of New York City re- cently sold their large mink ranch at Garland, Maine, to e. group headed by Mrs. Gertrude E. Fox, Editor of the Black Fox Magazine, and Haven Sawyer of Bangor, Maine. The ranch is stocked with 350 breeding female mink and 150 males and the equipment is of the very best. . Mink both wild and ranch bred were in excellent demand at the sales of the New York Auction Company and Frederick Huth A: Co. in New York in May. The New York Auction Company offered 39,000 mink on May 9th. Wild mink sold at from ten to fifteen per cent above the market nndabout 31% ‘of the offering changed hands. Ranch mink also sold strong and about 80% of the offering sold at an advance of 15%. It is reported that the trimming types sold bet- ter than the coat skins. The Ohio Game and Fish De- partment some years ago started an experimental ranch to raise raccoon and rabbits. The rabbit ranch proved such a failure that no attempt was made to carry on the work after the first year of operation. Rt one time about 750 raccoon were in pens on the ranch, but heavy losses have so effected the venture that it is be- ing discontinued. The following report on the Hudson's Bay Company fox sale of May 29th should prove interesting. The offering of 9.029 silver fox furs was rather poor in color and qual- ity as is usual towards the end of the season. However, the attend- ance was good and the result full! up to expectations. The number of French buyers who competed’ for most. types was very noticeable. The fear that France may be forced off the gold standard and the keenness to convert French cash into stock was in part re- sponsible for their heavy demands. Now listen to this Brer Foxmen: "The offering contained some 600 Canadian wild caught skins which the buyers did not seem anxious to take at the same increase on our pre-sale valuation as they did the farm skins." The writer remembers very viv- idly when in company with Mr. W. Chester S. McLure, M.P., in 1928 we first introduced the subject of selling farmed silver fox pelts to the Hudson's Bay Company in their celebrated Board Room. London, England.
