It has been well said that Sir Wilfrid has

attracted to his banner all, the disloyal, pro-German element in Canada and driven off the majority ‘of his best pro-British patriotic supporters. Not a fourth of his English-speaking supporters -in -the. last Parliament have been endorsed as his nom- inees in- the present campaign, and his supporters in Quebec are mostly' National- ists who are tyranizing over-the loyal ele- ment which is a much larger proportion than the noise of the Nationalists would lead one to believe.

Now comes _word from Kitchener, for-

merly .Berlin,-Qnt., _that Sir Robert _BQ1'defi has been refused a hearing by the German element there. -What does this signify? Does it not bear out what has been all along contended that the majority of the Gerinnii vote in Canada, whatever its origin, is in favor of_ Kaiserism and against the British connection? What happened in South Bruce in 1913? Mr. Truax appealed to the German element there on the ground that Borden was supporting Britain against Germany, and forthwith the Germans re- turned him to defeat Sir Robert’s alleged policy. When the loyal people of Berlin voted to change the name from that of the capital of Germany to that of Kitchener the popular hero of the ~war, the German ele- ‘nent rioted and stoned the office windows :if the newspaper which 'advocated the

These are the same people who are work-

If he succeeded, 'if which there is no possible prospect, li. .vould be the instrument of such factions tr 'lisintegrate the Empire and bring Cana- '_la’s name to be a reproach in history.

REPLY T0 'IHE PAIIIIOT _

` ` n%wa%ma%

Yesterday’s issue of The Pariot contains a glowing tribute to Sir

\\"filfrid Laurier; _

No one ,denies that he has personal distinction, genius for pffrly

leadership, and, toa certain degree, capacity for national affairs. He has privatiei honour, a high standard of conduct in .personal relations, something of theniagnetism for which Sir _]olil1 Macdonald was dis- tinguished, Aigrcat writer has Said that no power is equal to personal charm, and that fact lies at the root of Sir Wilfrid l.:i\n'icr',~» political] and personal ascendancy. » l _

But when all this is conceded. it must be told that the _Liberal lend-

<‘\' lli\S lweii jicrliaps the most flexible politician to occupy thc position of Prime i\finistcr, or leader of thc Liberal party, in tho lii.~atory of Confederation. In his younger days Wilfrid Laurier gave promise of being a power -of good in national politics. lint the man who lcd thc -Liberal party after thc .plissilig of lllzilce and l\l:.ickeiizic is a strange contrast to the man who lcd the Liberal party in office. Between 1878 and 1891> the Liberal press and the Liberal lczidcrs denounced electoral corruption with soinetliing like rcligiou.~ fervoiir. liut`electoral_ methods ,did-not im- prove under the Laurier iidministrzitioii. Huge funds were collected and <lisburSc'd for campaign purposes. In b_\'e-ciccrioiis c\`i-r_\- pliasc of -trickery and fraud was revealed. ln general elections the lfcdcrzil Trezisiiry was treated as the private purse of the Liberal party. lf thc Liberal politicians did not invent electoral corruption. thi-_v reduced tht- przicticc to ii science. ltr-ligioiis fervour in opposition ficcaiuc deliber- ;itc cynicisin in oflicc-_ '|`o govern, not to reform, licclimc tlic \\‘:itch-- word of thc party. i

_lt is not denied that niuch uscful legislation was cllzirtcd iindci' tht-

Libcrzil regime. lt would bc a miracle if any (lovcrnnicnt coiild hold office for fifteen _\'c:ii's witliout placing it ci-rliiin :inionnt oi v:iiu:iiiic lcgislzitioil upon thc sliitutc books of the country. lint what ri-fol'il\.< :lid come-czinic only tliroiiglrfiglitiiig in thc pit-ss, and gt-nci':ill_\' thc Lilieral leader was forced to take action by thc power of public opinion. llc was rarely if ever the leader in any progressive nio\'<~mcnt. 'l`l1¢‘l‘<' was always tlicistispicion that his policy was d<~tcrn\iucd only by con- iiilcratioiis of political fszifcty. ln all _thc ycairs that lic hcld office our will look in vain for ii note of ziggrcssivc lcadcrsliip in social :ind in- :lustrinl reform. ` 7 1 _ _ '

\'\"illi :ill his attractive-qualities, Sir \\"ilfri<l will bc l'ciiii-iiilici'i~<l as

the dutics on inainifaccurcd articles practically as-tliey wcrc cstiililislictl by thc 'Coiiscr\'ati\'cs. l’lcdgcd to Senate Reform, he madc thc l`p- pcr Cluinibcr ii place of reward for those who reudcretl fiiiaiicizil :ind other aid to the l_.ilicral_p:i`rty. llc stood in thc position of scttiiig the Senate above the direct representatives fifvthc pcoplevin thc l-louse of toninions, alid used the power of _an irresponsible lrlousc to defeat thc will of the iiiiisscs, while posing as a disciple ofoliritisli l.ili,criili_<iu;

Sir \=\'ilfrid Lauricr never was an lnipcrialist, and lit-vcr scriou.~'l_\'

attempted to forward the cause of imperial unit_\'_ ln this, lio\\'cvci'. he had the merit of adhering to a life-long conviction. _ lt is true that in liliglalitl he asked thc imperial (iovcrnmcut to call us to the conilcils of thc .l§nipire, but this was ti phrase for an ticcasioii, and not ii suiccrc dcclziralion of faith.

llul if Sir \\"ilfrid`s record so far as :i hcaltliy'lmpcrinlist is con~

:crncd is to lic <lcploi'cd, what is to be said of his rccord on Fctltfriilisiii, No man in public life ever professed greater devotion to l"c<lcr:ili_~‘iii than hc_ ln |8910 he rode into power on ii cry of ".\'o coercion of

f\lan_itob:i." ln M05 he turned lii.s_bacl< upon all that hc licld to bt' sacred :i few short years before, and imposed flint upon Szisl<nlciic\\'ziii \\'hi_ch he declared to be ri terrible injustice for .\lnnitob:i. '|`h:it action ilonc in' his career history will find itldifhcnlt to explain, :ind iinpos_< sible to justify. _ i -

Tliroughout his cntirc career Sir Wilfrid has stood out ngiiliist

public ownership. Un the forticlh anniversary of his entry into thc public arena, hc stood in his place in thc Loniiiions :ind atlvocatcd that against which lic -fought all those years, ,not bcciinsc hc has been con» vcrtcd to flint view, but because of his false god of cxpcrliciicy, thc po- litical idol' of liispolitical life. _ / -
