evil gags. The soiwans adopted Mr. Gordgi w iir0n_,;,,ui " . ~ ‘ didate 01.1 a strong___an"ti¢protri_'- tioflissue. 'blriixvlailidion no pretense §bout"the matter; he does not believe in equivocation or evasion. He says he believes-in the open bar and the present booze system, andihas no use _for prohibition -or re- strictive measures. G 4 . Such a straight-forward course was not to the liking

of the Glo" and a certain section of the Liberal party wt- .efer the course of hunting with the hound and r ning with the hare at t_he same time. So they ado, ‘ .\lr. Dewart, K. C., as a compromise candi- date. . ' Dewart says he was no party to the Hearst- Rowell prohibition agreement, but as that is Mr. Rowelfs policy for “‘today" he is bound by it. On the other hand he claims freedom to act as he thinks best in an “emergency,” and to vote against prohibition were he to consider that in the best interests of his

party.

This trimming of sales has disgusted Sir Allen.

Aylesworth, former Minister of justice in the Laurier govemment, and one of the leaders of Toronto Liber- alism. In a speech in support of Mr. Gordon \Valdron-

the other night, Sir Allen did not mince matters at‘~

all. He denounced Mr. Rowell, and he denounced the Globe and all its works. His views are so char- acteristic of many Toronto Liberals that we‘may be pardoned reproducing them :-

'If the Liberal party is to be turned into a temper-

ance society and no one is to be permitted to be a mem- ber of that party unless he is an ardent prohibitionist, then I and hundreds of lifelong Liberals in the Prov- ince of Ontario cannot be members,’ said Sir Allen Aylesworth. He declared prohibition was no cure for intemperance. He and other Liberals repudiated the Globe and all its entangling alliances. Prohibition was intolerant, and he revolted against it, as it was contrary to all principles of Liberalism, Sir Allen said. he was as strong a temperance man as any man in the Dominion, and was still a loyal and devoted fol-E lower of Sir Wilfrid Laurier, but he could not follow the leadership of Mr.” W. N. Rowell. He did Iiot question the sincerity of the latter, and held him in very high regard. But Mr. Rowell made a very great mistake when he assumed the leadership of the Liber- al party in the Legislature in makingthe temperance- question the foremost 'in the party platform. That question had no place in politics. _

THE POLICY OF .TOTAL PROHIBITION

MIGHT SUIT A GEORGE III TORY, OR A MAN \VHO BELIEVED IN TI-IIE KAISERISM OF GERMANY, -BUT IT WAS AGAINST ALL PRINCIPLES OF LIBERALISM.

llc’ would never be a party to the passingof laws

to make it a crime for a man to take a glass of beer, or to sell a cigarette, or to hold a horse race. Such things were not crimes, and it was scandalous that a person should have to risk being sent to jail because' he indulged in them. They might just as well pass a' law rendcrinig it obligatory for a person to attend church on Sunday under a penalty of being sent to jail for non-attendance. Intemperance was undoubtedly a menace to the community, but it was a greater men- ace that it should be the subject of legislation. It was time to call a halt to such legislation.

Sir Allen said he could not support Mr. Hartley

Dewart, BECAUSE HE WAS TRIFLING WITH TH»E PROHIBITION QUESTION. He assailed the Globe for having statedthat it would rather sup- port a prohibitiouist Conservative thana Liberal who was in league with the liquorinterests.

"Shades of George Brown! Is that the voice of

the Liberal party?" he asked, and answered the ques-i tion in the negative, and proceeded to bewail the fact that the Globe could no longer be regarded as the “Grit`s Bible,” or as a source of leadership to the once great 'Liberal party. He concluded by urging the__ electors of South-west Toronto to vote for Mr. Gor-‘ don Waldron and against prohibition.

_ _ ' C RUITING IN CANADA

The appeal for recruits, to which such a nm-fiiiti-'

cent response was given in cvery part of the Domini- ion during the early stages of the war, appears to"- have lost its original drawing power. Recruiting has; in slaclfgned _,off perceptibly in all the provinces, our own; not The Fifth Siege Battery is 'still short of

THE MAN .WHO _DGES THINGS

400,600 men have offered themselves, and ovel' 835,-

stream of Canadians across the Atlantic to take part in

which Canada has played from the first moment that-I the ominous mutterings of war reached Ottawa in the lan" d3yS Qf July. 1914. As the`.Princess Royal of, the Domimons-to use _the_ graceful epithet of’Sirf Iharles Lucas-Canada-has _done more in her sacri- 'tices and contributions to the Empire in arms 'than anyone could have asked, or than anyone not intimate- ly acquainted with the virility and steadfastness of her people would have anticipated. `

NOTES

' Five thousand menihave left Camp Hughes, in Man-' itoba, for the harvest fields and it is expected that within a few days ten thousand more will have done likewise. The soldiers in question are serving their; .ountry well in the matter. Next in importance to? the work in the war fields is the gathering ‘in of thel crops. ~The Camp Hughes men are aiding in both en-7 tefprises. "'¢‘ ‘»“ ` " ` ' Z*
