The candidates are Jeremiah J.

McCarthy, former surveyor of the port; former Senator Martin Hays and Representative Frederick C. Dowling. Last year the ward had two Representatives, but this year. In view of allotment of the apportionment board, the ward will have but one, unless there is a new allotment. The meeting of the "Ward 25 Republican Club was called to order by its president, Edward C.

Mansfield, former postmaster. In opening the meeting he declared that ho called the session at the suggestion of certain Boston Republican leaders, to consider the question of indorsing a candidate for Representative. It was said at the meeting that In view of the growing strength of Candidate McCarthy, it might be wise to select a candidate and further his candidacy. Mr. Mansfield called the attention of the members to the fact that two of candidates.

Mr. Hays and Mr. Dowling, were members of the club. The club, however, after discussing suggestion, decided practically unanimously not to indorse any candidate. It was recognized by those present that the real question was to indorse either Hays or Dowling.

Some of the members present were friendly to the candidacy of Mr. McCarthy and stoutly maintained that it was not the duty of the club to indorse any candidate. 75c OR TOILET GOODS COUNTERS This Handy Package Contains Tooth Paste, Cold Cream, Soap and Talcum (Four different room size) Thursday, Friday and Saturday Only HOT WEATHER CANDY SPECIAL FRESH HOME MADE Sait Water Taffy Ocean Spray Salt Water Taffy in many Molasses, Peppermint, Chocolate, Vanilla, Strawberry and Fudge Centres.

Indignation Is expressed in Winnipeg over reports telegraphed American and English papers to the effect that the wheat crop of Manitoba is badly ruined.

The Hon. Edward Brown, provincial treasurer of Manitoba, says: report is quite untrue. I have personally examined crop in district and have absolutely unbiased Information obtained through most reliable channels, that the damage to the wheat crop In Manitoba la pretty well confined to the southern part of the province and with a good crop In many other districts I do not look for the yield to be much below average. From reports received I would expect the deficiency In Manitoba to be more than made up In Saskatchewan and Alberta. The yield of other grains Is reported David Horn, president of the Fort William Elevator Company, and for many years chief grain inspector for the Dominion government, stated that reliable reports he had would indicate that the crop would run from 12 to 18 bushels per acre and that the numeral result would be much more satisfaotory than the pessimists would lead people to 4 SUNBURN LOTION A cooling and comfortable ap- plication for relief of the redness and smarting of sunburn, windbum, etc.
