TOMAHAWK COAL AND BLANKET FUND.

TO TUB BBITOe. Sir, —“ Justice ” wishes to protest against the meeting held last Thursday evening in the Glencairn Hall, Tomahawk, and yet further on in his letter states that tho meeting was a “ complete washout,” by which I presume he means a failure. If tho mooting was a failure from the convener’s point af

view it should have pleased “ Justice.” The meeting proved that tho farmers, who were conspicuous by their absence, are tired of the old association and its methods, and, sad to state, have lost interest iu the association’s coal and blanket fund, and, of course, the innocent members of the relief workers must suffer. Several attempts were made throughout the meeting to attend to the business for which it was convened, but tho “ hoodlum ” clement right from the commencement turned order into chaos. As one who lias moved freely amongst the farmers and better class of resident of Tomahawk I think it safe to state that the majority are against the old so-called association,' and do not wish to bother about forming a new one.—l am, etc., > Disgusted.
