l Our Duty and Interest

As charity begins at home so does patriotism.

We are all proud of, and loyal to, the Empire.

We are all proud of, and loyal to. the Dominion.

Why should we not be proud of.‘ and loyal to. the Province?

The interests of the Province in this election are vital and significant. being bound up in financial necrtit- ies for ad markets for our produce.

"The Only Farmer”

"In the campaign in Queen's County it is worthy of note that the only farmer amongst the four candidates is Hon. John H. Myers. It stands to reason that the farm- ing communities of Queen‘; which are so largely in. the plurality re-

l garding ‘inter-s and area, should {HAVE s representative at Ottawa. J4: Myers is a real farmer in every sense of the word. l-le is an ad- jvanced sgriculturist and has made I an enviable reputation for himself in that line. Is it reasonable then to think that Mr. Myers has not the best interests of thc farmers at heart? He undoubtedly has. He kngTg what policy is best for Prunes Edward Island he stands by p.

A more glaring abandonment of prin- ciple for the purpose of carrying the party in power over an appeal to the people has never been known in the history of sny country.

Notes By The Way i, v i When u is time in mind that the I Conservative vote in the last election f exceeded the Liberal aggregate by} approximatly eighty thousand, and; that Conservative majorities were, shown in two-thirds of the provinces. i it will be seen that no very marked‘ change in public sentiment is ncces-g sary to translate these popular ma-f jonties into a majority of Conserva- ‘ tlve seats in the House of Commons.

It was Dr. Henry Beeke. Fellow of Oriel College who suggested to Pitt in the last years of the eighteenth century that the best way of getting national revenue was by the imposi- tion of income tax. Pitt in 1799 took lthe advice of the Oxford don and put the tut: znto operation; he also con- tinued to consult Beeke, who present- iy produced in his "Observations on the Produce of the Income Tax" a Fdefence of the lmpost which has been praised as “the very best application iof statistical reasoning to finance.“ For his labor he was rewarded by ap- pointment to the deanery of Bristxal

! The Canadian fishing business ;seems to be holding its own in the 11st of leading industries. Catiadian fish go to every quarter of the globe in large quantities. the value of the ex- ports last year bsing nearly $36_fit‘C,- 000, quite an imposing sum. The im- porisof fish into Canada for the same calendar year were valued at $3,825,899. the difierencc between Ithem and the exports being striking. These fish exports comprise every- thing from frozen smelts and canned isardines to canned whale meat. Cau- 'ned salmon. that prince of fish, is the largest single item in fish exports, more than 50,500,000 pounds having been sold abroad in i929.

Objection to the custom so preval- ent in the United States of claiming, directly or obliquely, every possible noted person as a citizen of that country, frequently has been made. Probably it will continue to be made as there seems to be no indication that the custom is being abandoned. One of the most recent instances was notioed in a publication widely cir- culated north of the international line, which in an article on the his- tory of the telephone and its develop- ment referred to the late Alexander Graham Bell the inventorasa“Scot- fish-American." The term is abso- lutely correct. Dr. Bell was born in Scotland and brought the telephone to a wonderful state of advancement on the continent of North America. His name is ass-elated with one of the great organbaiions which oper- ates the telephone on a huge scalc. T0 that cxtcnt he was a "Scottish- ‘American? But it. was in the Province lot Ontario that his evpciuments were carried to success and his connection ‘with the United iS-utis was commer- cial and little more.

A good example has been set. by the New York City Health Depart- ment in making available to the pub- lic a. “rogues gallery" of some twen- ty-five thousand medical quarks op- crating throughout the United States. The avowed purpose of this is to pro- tect the public from fakc herb tonics, “radium“ cure-ails. electrical "col-v lars" and other similar devices.

There were so many picknickers and other forms of pleasure seekers in Lincoln Park last Sunday, says "l! Chllifillo Tribune. that the super- intendent said he couldn't even guess l" the number. but some idea of what a big crowd it was could be gathered from the fact that the visitors left thmy “m5 ‘>1 newspapers. hot. dogs, pickles, napkins, paper cup; chicken bones and miscellaneous bric-a-brac scattered over the flowers and grass. ‘Thirty tons!

P. I.‘ VS. MAINE - POTATOES

Every Islander, and especially ev- ery Conservative, will agree with Mr. J. P. Hooper, in respect to potatoes. thaL-"Removal of the duty for the ‘rest of the year‘ is Just what every potato grower in this country wants", and "Oh, that we might only be fortunate enough to get. it in No- vember, December and January.

But that is not. the King policy Nor is it the policy of the United States—to which Government the Dunning budget has assigned all power and absolute control of our potato trade.

Who ever heard of the United

-States framing any tariff to help

Canada? Every item of their legis- lation has been for their own P90" pie-and they will see to it that P. E. Island potatoes will not be 0n the

It is the pronounced Conservative policy to use every effort t0 will" free trade or reciprocity 111 DQ519965‘ or other products which we require to place in foreign markets.

sails in efforts to catch a stray breeze. They never had a fixed pol- icy; always experimenting with some fad or another-as catch-voted.

Those experiments cavern-Free Trade; Tariff Reform; Pres Trade as they gave it in England; Reci- procity", Commercial Union; Unre- stricted Reciprocity, and now the Dunning Budget. This latter, a. con- glomerate combination of shreds and patches from the fads of the past- with a few selections purloined from the Conservative flavor and standing.

They never W011 an election on any of their fad policies. lrl i896 they sailed in on the Manitoba School question and racial prejudices. In 1921 and i926 they rode on the hob- by-horse of war issues and anti-Im- perialism. with Canadian Autonomy specialized in the fore-front. Now they have switched over to an ul- tra-Imperialism-play1ng the game of psuedo-loyalty.

It is safe to challenge the Liberal party to show an instance in which they ever implemented in govern- ment any policy which they preach- ed and prayed for when in opposi- tion. They have been shouting Free Trade 1n one form and another for half a. century. Did they ever intro- duce a Free Trade bill in parliament?

They have no stabilized policy to- day. All they offer is the Dunning makeshift. Upon this, with pie-crust promises to give anything asked for, flaunted to electors in every quarter of Canada, they hope to fool the people into giving them mother lease of power, but on Monday next their hopes will be blasted.

lotions between this Dominion and‘ the Mother Country. The cabled rs-l port on Mr. MacDonald's address is‘ not very full but he said that the present campaign in the United Kingdom in favor of home-grown! agricultural produce “has given rise, to much awkwardness with Canada"; The British prime minister remark-It ed that this campaign had brought’ attacks, apparently from Canada,‘ based on the ground that Canadian sgriculturists were being robbed "of their previous opportunities in the United Kingdom's markets." He said: that "the Canadian Government was not at all indifferent" to the new British quota calling l... a certain percentage of home-grown cereals in all bakers’ loaves. l ‘This statement apparently proves| that Mr. Dunning was entirely in the I wrong when he prophesied that his new British preferences would induce the people of the British Isles to buy more Canadian wheat. The fact of: the matter is that the present Gov- emment does not understand the‘ business of international or Empire’ trade, and that we shall never get anywhere until we have u business- like Conservative administration in office.

KING LOSING HIS GRIP

Burdened by the feeling that his Government is on its last legs, Prem- ier King drags his weary way through the campaign. He speaks like a man who has lost heart and is no longer able to keep his head. Not. in his most confident days could he trust the case of his Government to a statement of facts, but in the Dres- ent contest. he descends to the feebl- est piffle. In one recent address he said to his hearers: “I have been ap-

ies, as I contemplated what might happen to western Canada if the British ‘market, the last sure market we have, should be closed to us." His hearers would wonder at such words from a man holdlngthe high office of prime minister of this Domlfliml- He must feel that the fortunes of his Government are at a low ebb, in-

One of the little symptoms often hard to understand is why you seem always to have an irritable throat with considerable discharge of u mucous nature. Sometimes it seems almost as 1f it contained yellow pus.

This has been found in many cases to be due to an inflammation of the lining of the little sinus or cavern in the upper Jaw bone.

‘The flu epidemic left a. great num- ber of these cases and they seem to persist until the arrival of hot dry weather which dries them up for the time being. .

About twenty years ago it was found that occasionally an infected tooth was causing this trouble, and by removing the tooth the sinus was sometimes drained through the

opening made by the extracted tooth.

‘That this was really a. frequent cause was however not suspected until recently.

Dr. G. Berry, Worcester. Mass, after studying several cases tells us that there is a relationship between this sinus trouble-slnusitis-and in- fected teeth ln 60 per cent of all cases.

Unfortunately the often suspected and the patient simply uses nose sprays such as camphor or menthol, or perhaps bor- acic acid or salt solutions with great regularity.

Now these are of help in easing irritation of the nose passages but you can see that they are not going to be of much help where there is such an underlying condition as an infected booth. '

The tooth may go right up under the floor of sinus, or antrum as it is called, or penetrate right intothe cavity of the antrum. Thus the pus and discharge and irritation from that tooth can all take place lu the antrum. inflamlng its walls mdpy keeping up a constant discharge which comes down into the nose and throat, makes the individual natur- ally think that. he is suffering with a continuous cold. ‘

Now when you remember that the organisms of this sinus discharge may find their way up the little tube running from back of throat to mid- dle ear, you can see why much deaf- ness, and that dangerous condition known as mastoiditis can develop therefrom.
