If the Liberal press and Liberal orators, in and out of parliament, "are to be dtceqlioved, all the present government ‘has done or left illi- dons is for the benefit of the fur- iner. For him the reductions in and the removal of duties in cor- taln instances were brought about; for him the low duties on foreign farm products were left as low as they had been; for his accomo‘ - tion and encouragement and for the reduction of his cost of living some thousand miles of railway bmllcll ‘lilies are to be built; for 111111 the National Debt has been re- ouceii-Jiy its. 839,000,000 by gen- 910111117 léilwing out of account $50,- 000,000 borrowed by the govern- ment for the Canadian National Railways!

Tllis kind of propaganda is not impfesslng the farmers; on the contrary it is disgusting ‘them. There are few farmers who are so ignorant that they do not know that every change in the tariff and every item in the budget was in- spired by the Progressives’ 'of Western Canada who are literally holding the government by the throat and giving it enough breath- ing space to enable it to make fur- ther concessions and live,

Some ides 0.171; power of mo- ney may be gathered from the fact that a gentleman once very con- spicuous in the limelight and now almost forgotten, Harry K. Thaw, by name, has had his sanity estab- lished by United States law at a cost of $100,000. The story, 'as ‘already stated, is almost forgotten but its salient points as we remain- ber them, are that some dozen years ngo Harry killed o. man and was arrested for mllrder. The evidence being all against him and the electric chair looming up in the distance, his friends who had plenty money and who, like himself, had a prejudice against electrocution, de- cided that it would be more res- pectable to have him insane than Dut to death, so they engaged law vars, alliinists and other witnesses who among them proved to the sat- isfaction of all the judges and jur- “35- "l" H1111? was insane and lfmibonsible. He was placed in an asylum for the insane where he has since iived.in comparative re- tirement. Recently, however his insanity became monotonous; he srew tired of it and engugedmore lawyers and more alienists to prove _ that he was mentally sound and quite safe to be at large. These men produced their proof, the law was satisfied and Harry is again in his right mind. It is said that the "Bpectve pl cesses of becoming sane and insane cost Harry and his mother $100,000.

THE CHARLOTTETOWN GUARDIAN

The Liberal- Gonservative Party

(BY LEON J. LADNER.) Wily should -i be a Liberal-Con- servative rather than a Liberal, a Progressive or a Laborlte, is the iluestiun often asked.

’i‘liere must be some form 0i government ill every community or grou-p of human beings to guide them for the good ot‘ the whole nuni-ber. The word “government“ comes from the Greek word mean- ing “to steer the ship." All through the centuries there ‘has ‘been some head ofsifairs to guide humanity's ship oi‘ state from the time of the father of the trlibs to these days oi responsible government and party systems, ~

The Cabinet Ministers, chosen by the party lii power, are joili-tly responsible to parliament for -thc action of each individual member 0f the Cabinet. This is the principle of responsible government-oi very democratic method of ruling the country.

Political parties are older than ileulocrlicy, they have existed in nearly all countries, under all forms 01' goverrlnlent. As Lord Bryce, perhaps the greatest modern authority on the systems of gov- ernmenl, lanys: "No free country has been without them, no one lins Sl10lll1.l10.W..l"QHl19D1\ll%l€.50V?! m. 1 éould'“b‘é"wbl‘ked' ‘ without" they ibring order out of tlle chaos of ll multitude of voters. ll in sucil vast populations as those 0f the ‘United States, France or Eng- land, there were no par-ty organiz- ations by Whom would pu-blic opiu- lon be roused and educated and directed to certain specific pur- poses." iPolltlcal parties are as necessary s -part of our constitu- tion as the House of Commons or tile. Cabinet Ministers. A citizen will best serve his fellow citizens and the State -under our democratic institutions byjoinlng the political party which best expresses his or he’:- views. lln Canada prior to 1854 were ‘four parties:

1. ~The Extreme Tories.

2,. The Moderate Conservatives. - 3. The Moderate Reformers.

4. The IUltra Radicals or Clear Grits. _ » This condition caused a dead- lock; nothing could-‘bewione; the country's work was at sstandsclll. In consequence the moderate mem- bers of each party, Maodonaid and Cartier, leaders of the Conserva- tives and La Fontaine and ‘Baldwin, leaders of the Moderate, Liberals, joined to form the Liberal-Conser- vative iParty under Sir John A. liiaedonaid. Thus were thrown t0- gether- in the opposition the clear grits or ultra. radicals and the ex- treme tories. Out of‘ that opposi- tion group was developed the pre- sent Liberal party, still holding divergent and inconsistent policies. The union‘ of the moderates re~ grouped the political thought of- Canada. Men of sound and 'mod- erate views, willing to compromise for the well-are of Canada, ~big enough to sink party spirit and put Canada ‘first, all united to make a nation of the northernZhal-f of the American Continent. The object‘ of this party was progress with sanity, the building up of the

or raillcsl changes to disorganlze the business of the people. The alni of this Liberad Conservative Party as given by Sir John A. Mac- donald was “-to enlarge the bounds of being counted as a progressive Conservative.”

Rt, Hon. Arthur Melghen, in his first speech at Sterling, Ontario, alter becoming 'Prlme Minister, has so well defined the general princi- ples of Conservatism that his de- finition is now used by Mr. A. G. Dewey, -Profeesor oi’ the Depart. ment of Government, Columbia University. Ilt is as follows:

- Only Two Classes In Canlds

“Looking overthe world today and then flxlng eyes on Canada, -I see only two divisions of our peo- -ple, only two classes in this ct rin- try. I see on the one side those who hold steady, who wal-k fairly in the middle of the road. who learn from lieve in industry and ordered lib- arty, who still have faith in good old iBrltish institutions and ‘British principles that have made us what we are.
