MONDAY, JUNE 21,1915

,_ MR. HUGHES AS A CRITIC

Notwithstanding the high comrnendation given General

liughes and the Department of Militia and Defence, by the Liberal Ottawa Free Press, Mr. J. J. Hughes is on the stump denouncing both the General and his Department for all he is worth. which is not very much politically. ln Mr. Hughes’ case, discretion would be the better part ol velour. The Liberals have not a very enviable reputation ifi the matter of defence and the less said by Mr. Hughes or any other Laurierite to resurrect it, the better forhiin and his party. We do not wish to be eternally reverting to Sir Wilfrid’s defence record. Sir Wilfrid would like-~

fi'oni a party point of view-to blot it out, were that pos- sible. Still when Mr. Hughes seeks to try and convince the few electors who turn up at his meetings that the present Government is at fault, it is just as well to remind the people of the facts. So far as land forces are con- cerned, the Dominion has made a record which will go down the ages; and it redounds to the credit of the people that tl”-1 returned to power a party with sufficient vision to int_~i~pi~et the feeling in the country aright. Judging by the naval record of'Sir Wilfrid Laurier the reputation of the Dominion would have been damned to all eternity had ho been in power at this critical juncture. Canada, in so far as naval fighting is concerned, has been able to do little but look on.

This is the Laurier legacy. it is ii situation which the

Canadian people have not sought, af which the pride slid the patriotism of' the Canadian people revolt. Canada. has done and is doing much to aid the Empire on land, but lliust look to others for not only offensive but also for defensive measures on the sea. 'lt is not a nice thing. it is a burden of shame which the Canadian people would not have been called upon to bear but for the action of the iiiberal party under Sir \Vilf`rid Laurier. But for Laurier there might now have been upon the ocean. in the North Sea, on the Atlantic. in the Mediterranean, or wherever fliers are"great deeds doing and to be done, Canadian war- ships, playing a big part in the fight for civilization.

There was no Canadian dreadnought in the fight oft' i-iellogoland because Laurier Stood In the way.,

There was no Canadian cruiser to overtake and destroy

the “Emden" because Laurier prevented it. "

Canada would have had a complete fleet unit on the

Pticiflc, able to guard the British Columbia coast and chase life German cruisers out of llie Pacific ocean wlthout‘the assistance of Japan if Laurier had not refused the sugges- tion made by the British Admiralty in 1909. Tile “Good Hope.” with her gallant commander and crew, including Canadians might have never been shattered and sunk in ilie South Pacific if Laurier had agreed to the construction til' u Canadian fleet unit on the Pacific. If Canada. under Laurier, had done what Australia did. the Domiiiioin would not have had to depend upon the Mother Country and her ally Japan for protection on the Pacific.

The refusal, in 1909, and the delay following that refusal,

produced the situation in which the Canadian people find theinselves today. A

‘The little Dominion of New Zealand went as far as she

could toward carrying out the Admiralty proposal of 1909. Bite built, in British yards, the dreadnought “New Zeal- aiid," a ship which has played a part in one of the most remarkable ond unique naval successes of all ages. the bottling up thc great German Armada and the consequent paralysis of the whole foreign trade of the German Em- hire. The work of the "New Zealand” had been of direct ilonefit to Canada in the maintenance of the trade route to this country. Canada might have protected, or helped iiiatoriuliy to protect, her own trade routes but for Laurier.

Mr. Hughes knows this but it does not suit his policy to

tell his audiences so. Mr. Hughes is ii little politician in tivery sense of the word. lie is a little Canadian, a little Islander, who sacrificed the lsland’s representation case for party purposes. But he need not hope to gain anything iii l(lng's by his "sweet deceptions" regarding tha pm-is played by the respective Laurier and Borden Govern- ments on the question of defence.

.1l-A-Q-_

STEALING PUBLIC DOMAlN i

Mr. J. J. Hughes is out proclaiming himself _as a Simon

i’iirlst in graft and corruption. What stsggers people Who cling to old fashioned notions of honesty is the cool- ilbss with which Liberal deputy-ministers and other prom- iiient officials used to get together in the Laurier days and form syndicates for robbing the Indians orstsallnz the “iibilc domain. The inevitable Mr. Peter Ryiii1_.ofV'_I`_oronto, iilltiitliy turned up to lend a hand, and the radcalsghpd' `i\o"' Ql!i‘uple‘ about using bogus names for appiioaattvs,-of bor-_ » llltwing the name of a transient Anfeiricsn, or giving"their liifis or brothers-in-law an lnterestfi_n_,the graft. ."§l,t;niust\ remembered. too, that the thievlng .lu,_its manifoldgarbs tliisarthed by Mr. Ferguson, the speeialfcomrnissioner ap- _ iiited _to investigate the Laurier ;Govhi'iifn€t!f .transac- _ibns was probably only a fraction of what,s'ctually tooli_.

For instance we have never yet got to thcbottoin

of doing immigration work. A few witnesses:

lection of articles of superlative worth. Introduced by a brief historical statement showlng,the_p1a¢e the _potato occupies in the world's domestic economy, and especially mai ui Canada, by which it would appear that the crop is worth to this country upwardsof $41,500,000 n, year, we are presented with s complete exposition of the cultiva- tion of the tuber by Mr. W. T. Macoun, Dominion I-Iorf.i~ culturist. Mr. H. T. Gussow, Dominion Botanist, explains first llie diseases to which the potato is subject and how they can be controlled, and next, the results of' inspec- tion under the “Destructive Insect and Pest Act.” Essays telling the story of potato production in each of the prov- inces by our own Secretary for Agriculture, Prof. Theo- dore Ross; Superintendent of Agricultural Societies, Mr. F.

This table shows Ger- many to be the greatest potato-producing country, and also that. excepting in Canada and the United States. the pro- duction is everywhcreon the decline. Everybody con- cerned in potato growing will be interested in this pani- phlet and should send for it to tho Publications Branch, Department ol' Agriculture, Ottawa.

THE TWENTY-THIRD PSALM

Rev. Lachlaii McLean Watt, B. D., St. Stephc-n's, Edin-

burgh. the poet preacher of Scotland who is now at the front as Chaplain to Scottish Regiments, writes as follows to the Edinburgh Scotsman:

“We’re going off to the front to-night, slr, and we

thought we’d like to have the sacrament before we go. Can you givo it to us?" . . .

The men begun to gather together and sat down there

ns reverently as though the dim little drauglity lint worn the channel of some great cathedral, holy with the dccpost memories of Christian generations.

“You might wait," whispered on'c. “The Canierons and

Seaforths may be able to come.” `

So we waited-ii hushed and solemn waiting. Then quietly some of them began to croon old psalm

inemiories and quiet hymns, waiting. And at length the others came stepping softly into place; and with them comrades who explained that, though they were of ii dlf ferent church belief, they yet desired to share in the act oi' worship preparatory to celebration. At length about 120 men were there and we began.

it was the Twenty-third Psiilin, thc psalm of God‘s shep-

herding, tho comradeship of the Divine in the Valley of the Shadow, tho faith and the hope of thc brave. What ii power was in it-what a spell of wonder, of comforting and uplifting in this land of' war! They sang it very tenderly, for it spoke to them ol' times when they had held their mothers’ hands and looked up wondering in their faces in the church at home, wondering why tears were tim-0, as the dear old hearts remembered.

Some of them also-the tears were on their cheeks as

they sang that old psalm, very precious in the liomelanrl, Very precious liere-and it is a soul-shaking thing to see a strong man’s tears. it was surely thus our fathers sang, in quiet places and by foreign streams, when to be true to the faith committed to them meant outcastlng, exile and death.

It means a big thing still, to-day, for our Empire-tliis

heart-deep singing of our soldier men.

I have never dreamed that I should see such depths of

feeling for eternal things. Do not tell me this is Armaged- don- lt is not the end or things. it is Resurrection and Pentecost we are pii.ssin"g throughI

Talk of your churches, your sects, your quarrclgnme

divisions! When men are face to face with tho eternal, as we are out here, these things are a.s,forgottcn as thc dust_tliat blew last year over the remotest sand heap into the Atlantic.
