GRIT TOWER 0F BABEL
Confusion is becoming worse confounded in the Liberal
party to judge by the convention meeting!! bl’-ing held- Take the Automobile question for example. Certain can- didates have signed a. pledge to repeal the Automobile Act, others have liatly refused to do so, while in the case of the First District of Queen’s, the candidates have signed u modified pledge depriving the country districts of a privilege which the candidates are prepared to extend to t‘harlottetown and Summerside. What is the Grit policy on the question? ls there any body ot’ responsible opinion in the remnants of the Grit party capable of giving a lead on the subject? Should the free and independent farmers of Kings, say, desire to link up their railway connection by automobile are they to be denied the right which the Grits would concede to Charlottetown and Sunimersidc? WhY should the Grits make flesh of the city and town and ilS|\ of the country? The contempt with which the Grits treat the farmers is almost incredible. At present under the Automobile Act, the most democratic measure ever intro- duced in any province in Canada, the farmers of each dis- trict have the power in their own hands to say whether they will or will not permit the automobile to run. One section of the Grit candidates would deprive the whole province of this right of choice, another would deprive the farmers only while permitting the city folk their blessed independence; while a third section would give the whole province equal rights in the matter. In this Babel of opinion who should prevail? Let us know exactly where
the Grits stand on the question,___i;_I;i1e catchpenny policies, Aofwvote-mongeriug candidates atie too numerous to carry. conviction of the genuineness of any of them. Come out in the open and let us know where we may expect the curious eonglomeration to stand in the unlikely event of one of each variety to be returned.

GRITS BEATING THE AIR
.;_______._ W
Following The Patriot's lead, the Grit candidates in”
the First District of Queen‘s roundly denounce the 'Gov-'_ ernment for ta) increasing the salaries of certain officials and menihers of the Government and (bl for appointing len school inspectors instead of five. We have already put the straight question to The Patriot,
In the unlikely event of the Liberals being returned to
power will ‘he Liberal party pledge themselves to reduce the present salaries? lf not why not.
The Patriot declined to accept such rt pledge and thus
convicted itself of insincerity. Any candidate who follows The Patriot's deplorable example is equally insincere and not to be trusted by the farmers. The fact is The Patriot and every candidate know that under no circumstances would the present salary list be cut. A farmer or any business man knows that if they pay $1 per day for labour instead ot' $1.50 per day, the current rate, they Just-get the value and class of labour for which they pay. The Patriot itself has been foremost in its demand for further 'in~
creases of salaries for certain people and cannot now con- sistently back down. Neither can any self-respecting candidate who seeks the suffrages of the electorate,
Regarding the inspectorate we should like to know
what policy, if any, the Grit conglomeratlon hason the subject. Would they reduce the school inspectors and return to the Dominion Treasury the money for the other five? Or would they divide the inspectorate into two classes-one purely agricultural und the other purely scho- lastic? lt is up to the Grits to make the choice or fall in with the present policy, The policy ol’ the Government has been described by the Department of Agriculture at Ottawa as the best in the Dominion-in fact twenty years ahead of any other province. Are the Grits prepared to favour a retrograde movement in eduention-or are they merely triflllng with thc educational interests of the farmers of this magnificent province?
DOLLAR DAY .
The Retail Merchants’ Association, recently organized
in this city, is, we believe, the first effort on the part of our retail merchants to get together. Heretofore each was working out his own commercial salvation relying on what his own unaided efforts could accomplish. And, generally speaking, the reliance was justified. Our merchants have, we believe without exception, made a success of their busi- ness, But times are changing. A quicker pace has been set, a broader outlook has developed. Mere individual suc- cess is/ not now, the goal; the interests of the whole com- ,munity, of the whole province, are being considered, not necessarily for unsellish and philanthropic reasons but be- Gallne_ \_ve‘ha,ellearned that through co-operative effort. through ' mutual helpfulness; we, can best help ourselves as
, ‘Ml as the community ln which we live. '
This is the trend of the new forward movement, the
idea that is today being smphaslied in o`ul"`scl1ool work, our agricultural education; it ls this keynote oftthe optimism
and the progress that have become eyident in our province during the past few years. - -‘
Our farmers throughout the provlilce are co-operating
as never before; Seed Grain Associations, Live Stock Breeders' Associations, Farmers' institutes, E38 Circles,Wo- men’s Institutes, Teachers Associations-all these are part of the forward movement .now in progress, part ofthe mod- ern idea of progresslveness. The merchants' have done well to follow the lead so successfully followed by our farmers and we have no doubt they will find lt equally profitable. f
The object of the Association is mutual helpfulness, the
betterment of general conditions. And there is much that can he done in the way of civic legislation, improvement of marketing facilities, the securing of,hetter_ucomm 4 tion
lor customers &c But the thins is not bs eel
mba cooperation movement mutt' not bii*'9donfl2d:§tt‘ie
help make it a succws. The people’s first opportunity will present itself on Wednesday next, Dollar Day, when the merchants are displaying ,their special bargains. The generous patronage of the public, on ,this the first bargain day'will repay both the public and the merchants, for_it may be taken for granted that. in order to give the move- ment a good send off, the merchants will vie with oalcb other to give the utmost possible value for every dollar expended. _
We trust city and country will unite in making Dollar
Day s. memorable one in Charlottetown. The City should be gaily decorated with hunting to show there is something special doing; the citizens, should as far as possible do their shopping in the mornlngbefore, the special trains ariltve. thus giving the visiting customers is chance.-in the,stqfe.s,`~ and all should unite in making the affair a. great succoset

AWAKE. BRITONS -
The seriousness of the task before the British Empire
to~day is indicated by the fact that Sir John French granted one of his staff, Captain Frederick 'E. Guest, son of Baron
Winborne, seventy-two hours leave of absence to come __ over to London to tell the House of Commons theneetl 0! men and munitions and also to impress upon them the
peril confronting the nation.
Captain Guest__in the course of the debate on the Muni-
nons nm sam that the nation sun failed to grasp the meaning, size and significance of the war. The energizing of the manufacture of munitions, he said, although it brought a sigh of relief to the trenches, was only tinkering
with the main proposition of the summer offensive.
He spoke of the enormous difficulties under which the
Allies were laboring and asked: "Where would they have been but for the indescribable gallantry of the French
troops in the past six weeks.” . -
Capt. Guest said that the nation ought to be organized
to the utmost. lie said that he had strongly opposed na- tional service before the war, but that what he had seen at the front had convinced him thnt;,before the war was over men would be wanted in such numbers, and munl- \ tions in such quantities, that no other system could over-
come the difficulties. ‘
It was true, he said, that more men had enrolled than
could be usefully employed at present, but only for the present. I-le said he was convinced that if the war was prolonged, national service would be 11 fundamental neces-
sity ot' the country’s safety. _
ln the face of such a declaration as this from such a
source is it not time that we too in this part of the Empire had awakened to our responsibilities as well as to our danger? Is there a mon among us, whose duty it is to offer his services, who will refuse this call of the Empire?
UNBEATEN RUSSIANS
Although the Austro-German army has driven the Rus-
sians frum Lemberg, the capital of Galicia, which has been held by the invaders of Austrian territory since lust Sep- tember, the successful forces have little prospect of winning a decisive victory. They are unable, in fact to finish their job. Tile Russians have retreated for the time being, but their tremendous army remains unbroken and is still cap- able of resisting the euemy‘s advance. Von Hindenburg realized the situation some time ago, when he said: “Of course we cannot go to Moscow.” The Austro-Germans will still have to keep great bodies of men to hold the Russians in check, for the weakening of their lilies to any extent will give their foe the opportunity to advance once more and threaten the territory of the German' allies. It is also evi- dent that the Russians are organizing the factories of the country to produce ammunition on a larger scale than hith- erto, so that it will not be necessary to depend on foreign countries for supplies, Meanwhile it is reported that muni- tions of war intended for the use oi' Itussiofs armies are arriving at Vladivostock in great quantities, so much so in fact that the facilities for forwarding them by rail through Siberia are very inadequate. To remedy this, rush orders for ears and locomotives are being placed in the United States and Canada. With more ammunition both from home factories and ubroad, the Russians should in due time be able to resume the offensive against the enemy, which is even now being kept well occupied in the east- ern field.
With every Russian reverse rumors crop up _tluit the
cpuntry is secretly working for a separate peace with the _enemy._ These' rumors are always denied. This time there is corroboration of the denial from Berlin, the Frankfurter Zeitung, ln an inspired article, declaring positively that thereis no truth in the stories that negotiations are under way looking to the conclusion of peace with Russia, In this connection it should be remembered that Russia and the other Allies have signed nn agreement not to make 11 separate pence. lt is to 1'tussia’s advantage to keep this pledge, so even if the forcing of the Dardanelles is s. slow and difficult business, the Czar‘s armies may he counted upon to continue doing their share towards bringing about the defeat of the common enemy. »

The Italian Government's announcement that grave pen-
allies will be imposed in the case of any person who pub- licly circulates any report about military operations ex- cept those contained ln the official bulletins, follows close on the'order expelling newspaper correspondents from the neighborhood of military offices and camps. The people of Italy and their friends evidently are not to be very much enlightened as to the progress of the war if their Govern- ment can help it, In this respect they are in much the same position as the_ people of some other belligerent countries. ln time of war much secrecy Ls necessary and even more is practised., , , t _
