110N- ARTHUR MEIGHEN, PREDIIEIK.

he appointment of I-Ion. Arthur Meighcn to the dersiiip of the new National Liberal and Conser- _ lveparty, as announced in our telegrams this l“ lnbrning, is not pleasing to some of our Liberal ‘friends. Since the recent announcement of Sir Robert Borden‘s retirement it was irenerallyl tinder- stood that Mr. cigﬁieii would be his successor. It has been known since Sii‘ Robert tendered his resig- nation six months ago that Sir Tlitimas White xvas __ot in the running for the leadership. Yet iii the face of‘ this certain Liberal newpzipcrs have during the gust few days been busily circulating the report that ir Thomas White was the choice of the party; that Mr. Meighcn was second choice and not generally ac- ceptable to, the party. i Nothing could be further from the truth. When the members of the House of Commons and the Sen- ate were asked to vote for a leader they knew Sir Thomas was not in the running and watever their opinions were of the respective merits of the two men it is extremely improbable that they would vote for one who, theykiiew, would not ziccept the leader- ship. As a matter of fact no one, except Sir Robert Borden yet knows how the vote stood and Sir Robert is not the man to give out information entrusted to him in confidence. It was currently reported when the vote was taken, probably as a result of a com- parison of notes among the members, that Mr. Meighen received over ninety per cent of the votes cast and it has all along been taken for granted that; Mr.,Meig‘hen was the coming premier. The an- nouncement today of his appointment confirms the correctness of this view and the incorrectness or worse of the Liberal canard that seeks to make it appear that the zippointment is not a popular one. The Hon. Arthur Meighen is regarded as one of the ablest men in the House ofCommons and no bet- Ater proof (rould be had of his fitness for the position to which ‘he ‘has been called than that he is practic- ally the unanimous choice of his colleagues. Popular as he is braiity, broad-minded in his poliical views, not a hide-bound pZlYtlZttIl, Mr. Meighen possesses all the qualifications of a successful leader. He has been called upon to succeed one of Canada’s greatest premiers at the beginning of one of the most impor- tant epochs in Canadian history. His colleagues in parliament are confident he will make good‘; both the Liberals and the Conservatives in the newly con- structed ‘arty believe in him and have assured him of their aiicgiance and there is every reason to expect that he will carry the banner of his party with credit to himself and benefit to the country. Mr. Meighen is a comparatively young man, born in Perth County. Ontario in 1876 and was first elected t0 the House of Commons in 1908, re-elected in 1911 and, after his appointment as Solicitor General in 1913 was re- elected by acclamation.

Bolshevism has some redeeming features after all. A- recent news item from Moscow tells of the various punishments meted out to loafers. These punishments, with possibly some modifications, might well be applied by countries more advanced than the be-whiskered Bolshevik. tract:-

“Those guilty of taking days oﬂ? for the purpose of ‘speculation were sentenced to l0 years’ forced

‘i _ It is an old and generally accepted saying that . “silence gives consent." The Guardian has repeated- " lypressed upon the Patriots attention the fact that

the uncollected portion of. the 1919 Income Tax has,

through the bungling of the Bell Government, been lostto the revenue of the province. and that a grave injustice has been done to those who have paid these taxes under the inducement of circulars demanding payment under threatened penalty if payment wan ' ridt made within a limited time. The Guardian has nted out tlhat these taxes are not legally collect- ab e. The Patriot and the Government are no doubt Well advised of this, hence their silence. What we are now asking and pressing upon them is do they in- tend to refund the money to those from whom they have improperly collected it. There will be be no needof a windy reply of several columns, any invoca- tion of the gods of the May and June skies, or the dragging of any red herring or explodedscandal f acroiis the track. A few sim le sentences expressing the actual fiicts will suffice, ollowed of course by the
