the city is assured of a careful and prudent government during the next two years.

The evil eye seeth no good, says the Ot- is tawa Journal Press. Measuring the worth ’h

of their opponents by theirown tattered 31,3 standard of political morality Laurier par-'lati tisans could see nothing inthe Act giving Cen votes to soldiers other than a gigantic H h fraud to steal the rec-ent election. And so

for months past the country has heard-al

that soldiers’ ballots were being switched he by thousands to achieve reversal of the ver- l S

dict in constituencies where Laurierites es- a a

caped disaster by the vote at home. Thus it-fwas put out that enough votes were switchedfrom Winnipeg-alone to defeat Molloy in Provenchcr; that ample ballots; were diverted from Toronto to spell defeat, for half the pitiable group of Laurierites‘ to survive the deluge in Ontario; and that even in Quebec shrewd handling of fighting ballots might make a substantial dent in Laurier’s formidable line one un-easy geni- us even suggesting that Sir Wilfrid himself might go down to defeat in Quebec East. ,

Such ridiculous talk, persistently repeat- i

ed, had an inevitable result; an important section of the public swallowed it without challenge, and, unfortunately, many of the soldiers overseas were led to believe that under the provisions of the Act they were privileged to cast their votes in whatever constituency they chose. The consequence is that upwards of 25 per cent. of the soldier vote in Canada is lost because the law, made by men who were neither thieves nor luna- tics, was specific that soldiers should vote in constituencies in which they resided

prior' to enlistment.

_ The whole business is suggesive of the great deal of folly that is indulged in bv partisans mentally unbalanced by mad de- sire for office. Made suspicious by their own low level of purpose and sportsman - ship, they are ever ready and willing to asperse the motives of their opponents, and their partisanship is such that iio bombard- ` ment of common-sense or logic can possib- ly be made to penetrate their temporarily

bedevilled minds.

The moral would seem to be a necessity

for closer public scrutiny of all public leg- islation, a greater public desire to chal - lenge mere partisan assertions without proof, and, finally, but most important of` alI_, an increased degree of willingness to regept unsu ported inpeachments of thel motives of overnments and men. `

When I speak in this way ot' England, I mean the whole nation, without exception.

“That remark applies to all pro-

In this violent. antagonism of the nations lt is completely unimportant that cer- tuin classes of the two countries have common interest, be they betwe- en scholars or _worklngme-n. The En- glish workinginan. of all people. knows quite well that lt is his first interest now to get the upper hand over the Gerniun worker; for he has tlioroiiglily zruspcil that in diligence, oducutlon, und quality rho German far outstrlps him ~ and that in Ger- many ull the conditions of living, and the inicllcctuul development of tho workinginan stnnd on u much higher

“What would bc the result? It is

impossible to treat the question- tl_i'¢`>_r- oughly in this shortuddress, but an iipposite remark of Franz Behrens,_;i. ineiuhcr ol' the Rclchstag and presl- _dent of tlio committee of the German fwlorknieifs Congress, may bcoiioted lhorr-_. as it is lu complete ulnreenient with my own view. “lf our enemies succeed lu depriving Germany of her ,position in world economics, then this portion of our population will “ba forced to cmlgratc,-or they_must_re- main at home as hired serfs,~aii_d,the position of. tlie.Gern_1an worklngnttan must Ho from had to worst-_.' in my opinion this result would not be con- fined to German workmen alone. It .would affect iill classes. Gerinauy, 'and with it the whole _intellectual lliorizon of the country, would- bo ov- ercast with cures for _all time to loome. _ . _ 'Conslder~"fu1°ther; und 'realize that, at the _same time, W0 shall have to shoulder ti burden of 'tnxution to which all'Germanis', even the poor, must directly contrlbiite; ‘furtlier, that the heaviest taxation ‘of property in incapable, by a very long way, of producing the sums re quired; und further still. lf, in spite of the depreciation in German money we are still obliged to purchase from abroad our necessary raw materials and means of subsistence. ‘ notwith- standing all political and other liln- di-anccs, coiisider what u' situation would result for the whole commu- nity. Can any man in his innermost heart believe, in these circumstances. that the downfall of Germany can ho averted without ii strengthening 0! our power, without indemnity and se-

curlty?"

l He was firmly convinced, Herr von Tirpltz concluded, that lf the nation had the will, lt could obtain n pence before which the specter that haunt- ed Germany today would vanish like foam. "What," he contlned. "M0 the features of that peace? They are better-secured frontiers on land than liltlierto; the possession of Antwerp as a port of entry and as branch of the Hausa towns; and ln llflandero, R counter-position to England which would make a second attack very improbable. Such u position would secure to ua not o. phrase, hut. ll! 9 strong degree;-'actuai freedom ofthe sea. By`thls freedom of the sea the permanent utilization of colonies would bo made possible.
