Bishop Moran in a lecture on the bankruptcy of liberalism attributed to liberalism during the past eighty years a systematic brutalising of reason, degradation and mutilation of the soul and a destruction of the liberty of thought in social and political order.

Mr Gillies writes to the Star that he only attached his name to the apology as part of Ward, He considers the construction put on part of the article'in the Bruce Herald complained of as strained and unnatural, and adheres to every word in the article excepting in so far as may be construed as tending to impute corrupt conduct for private gain on the part of the Provincial Treasurer.
