HIM. SAYS SIR ROBERT BURDEN

Wartime Premier Tells Conservative Con- vention That Party Must Continue T0 Forge Ahead - Great Opportunities For Service In Canada.

‘WINNIPEG, Man., Oct. '11.-.'Be- lect your leader and whenyou have selected him, stand/by him. Being human. he may not always be right, but perhaps it would be well for you to remember that you also are hu- man. and that when you think he is wrong he may be right."

In such words Sir Robert Borden, war-time Premier, today addressed, the Conservative convention. “Let your policy." he advised, "always- stand‘ for Canada‘! place as a fully autonomous nation, within the British commonwealth.

; Sir Robert referred to his elec- tion 26 years ago as the then leader of the Conservative party. He did not want the position at the time or at any time for two reasons, one Was that he did not think he had the qualifications for it, and another, was that he did not desire they leadership. On the second night of the gathering at which he was chos-l en. he agreed with certain members to accept the leadership for one year only. ‘

Upon the conclusion of the cau- cus, however, it was suggested to

ment that he would lead the party for one year only, such a. statement might interfere with his authority. Consequently. he did not make any declaration and in the end led the party for a period of 28 years.

"I had.” humorously remarked

“We have on this platform his honored son known from the At- lantic to the Pacific. as Sir Hugh John. Long may Sir Hugh John- live."

The assemblage rose in a body and cheered Sir ‘Hugh John Mac- Donald, one of the oldest citizens of Winnipeg and for several minutes the remarks of Sir Robert could not be heard. _

Sir Robert recalled a card that had been placed over one of the rooms occupied by the Senate in their temporary headquarters in the museum at Ottawa, following the burning of the parliament buildings during the great war. The sign read "Pre-historic fossils" and had been, the cause of a certain amount of amusement. The reference was somewhat appropriate to him, when coming to address o. Conservative gathering, “vibrating with life, cn- ergy and confidence."

The present convention, said Sir Robert, was the greatest that had

ever been held in Canada and the‘ whole."

first convention of the Conservative party ever held in Dominion affairs. He believed in the two party system of government with the idea of two parties being united in generous rivalry in the service of the coun- try. On two occasions the Conserva- tive party had been returned to
