The pmv|nC|,,| eiemiun campaign is now on and the

candidates and the press Gt l>°¢h P""°“ ‘“° °"°"°“‘““‘ their views. real or feigned- Of the merits 9' demerns °t each.

The history of the past three and a half years is still

fresh in the minds of the electors, and tht`¢i'6 "9 Vivid recollections of the preceding twenty YSIHYS- There can be no doubt as to the efhclency or inefficiency of the respective parties which held the rei1\8 Of Z0V9l'l\melli- during these two periods. During tho present regime. |01' the first time ln the history of the J>\'°Vi“.c°' ~alm°Bt verbatim reports of the proceedings in the legislature have been published in the daily press. Theiwhole record of the Government's activities in all D0lJBl'_1DJ€lli-B 1188 been placed before the people. Departmental rpnorts have MCH issued and the whole history has been so clearly given that thero cannot be any possibility of misunder- standing, either of conditions as they were when the present Government took office, or of what they i\B"° since done to improve these conditions. 'V There has been criticism from the Liberal press and from the two members of the legislature who represented tho Liberal party. lt was vaguely charged _that the Government was extravagant, but when these charges were cliiillenged on the floor of the House the Leader of the Opposition. Mr John Richards, admitied that IIB C0016 not poiiit.to a single dollar the expenditure of which was not jiistihed. Lest there should be misunderstanding on this point we quote thc following dialogue which took place on April 21, 1915. The Premier in the course of a speech on supply said: “ The Leader of the Opposition had stated iii his speech that there ha_d been a ‘carnival of cxtravagance and waste] and he would 88k him HOW t0 rise in his place and point out whore there was any extravaganee and waste and SUZg0Sli W1l0l`€ ih@i`0 might- be economies.” l

Mr Richards-In making that statement l was not rc-

ferring to any particular item. I was_rcferring to the

accounts ln general.

The Premier-Well, here we have the estimates for all

our expenditures for the coming year. Tell me a particu- lar case that you think extravagant and wasteful and where economy may 'be 0X0l°CiB9d-

. .Mr Richards-I had no particular casio. in view. I was

reviewing the whole accounts._

The Premier-Yes, so you say. but now we have ‘here

on the accounts of last year, which you say were extrava; gant and wasteful. Surely it must be possible for you to give one instance in substantiation 0i'"'y011l‘i Chtlrsetl-

Mr Richards-Take the vote for thc Agricultural De-

partment.

The Premier-We have already passed that and thc

hon. member has not taken exception to one item ln it. Mr Richards-I must have been out at the time. The Premier-Very well, we will recommit the items

to give the hon. member an opportunity of pointing out anytliing'that he considers wasteful and extravagant.

The items, ten in number. were then taken scrlatim,

hut Mr Rlcliartls could not point to one he could recom- mend sliould be reduced.

The l’rcmici'-There, we have given the opportunity

to the Hon. Leader of the Oppositloii to prove his state- ment that we have been extravagant and wasteful and have taken him a second time over the ground with which he is most particularly familiar, the estimates for tho l)cpariment~of Agriculture, and ho has failed to take exception to one slnglq item or to suggest .economy in one vote.

This was the last heard of extravagancc and waste in

thc legislature. The matter was finally and irrevocably iixcd. Every item of expenditure had boenlicarefiilly scrutiniseii. not only by the Liberal Opposition, but by the members of the Government, and the conclusion arrived' at by both parties that the expenditure of every dollar shown in the accounts was justified. ‘

The Patriot, however, with that sublime indifference to

facts, which is its leading characteristic. has burdened its pages for many months past with its doleful and meaning- less cry of cxtravaganes and waste. Time after time we have challenged it, as its party's loader was challenged, to place its linger upon some specific dollar, the expendi- tiiro of which might have been avoided, but with its usual asliiino pcrsistcncy it continues its meaningless song. The tliliig is becoming pltifiil. The electors want facts, properly aiitlicntici-itcd facts, and must be getting sick of this eternal round of repetition. To change the dismal tune. will the Patriot, now on the eve of the election. givo onc real reason why the party who for twenty years ran the business of the province from had to worso until it accumulated n dobt of ovcr a mllllnn dollars should be. given another chance. '

ANTICIPATED l)RlVE IN WEST

From the time that the Russian retreat became n

definite and established fact. with its duration and extent tho -remaining questions n great part of the world has been

asking: " What about thc drive of the Allies on the west t'roiit'."' Like many another question. it was very easy to ask, especially ns it had been rumoured that ii great drive had been looked for to start in May. As the Russian retreat continued and daily seemed more dangerous, the question became more and more persistent. As the fall of Warsaw became certain many thought the blow ln the west would bo struck to save the Polish capital. But, it has often been argued that the fall of Warsaw is not nearly so serious as many people imagine and that the further the Germans penetrate into Russia the more nearly impossible will be their return. li is said that the Gorman army is on its way to Petrograd and that Russia is preparing to transfer the capital to Moscow, as France transferred her capital to Bordeaux, for similar reasons. The drive toward Paris and Calais had the double object of capturing those two cities and splitting and smashing the French army- especially the latter. lt was a mighty costly'fsilure. So. the German drive in the east. _the most powerful, most extensive, and so far. most successful launched by Ger-i many and Austria has the two-fold object of capturing the most important and most strut lc siti in

_ BEHIND »llIS WlFE’S SKIRTS

The characteristic of the,present opposition to the

Government is its lnsincerlty. There is not a single scrap of real. bona~fide opposition to the Government. The Pa- triot tried its utmost to make' capital out of the Premier‘s salary, but when we pointed out that the motion for this was seconded by tho Patrlot’s leader and unanimously sup- ported by the Legislature, our contemporary dropped the matter, declining to accept a challenge to guarantee the nbolitloii of the salary in the unlikely event Bt a Grit vic~ tory at the polls. ,i _ i.. i

_ ln the matter of the oyster industry one or two at-

tempts have been made to adversely criticize the Govern- inent's policy `of the leasing and conservation of oyster `hods. Mr. John Richards advanced some half-hearted criticism in the 'Legislature on the subject, but was in- stantly brought to book by Hon. Mr. Myers, who lustanced a prominent oyster fisherman who askediltfr. Richards “if he thought the Government were doing right. ln leasing those beds and seeking to build up the industry," to--which Mr, Richards replied that "certainly they were."

Now we have Mr. Richards would-be successor, Mr,

Bell, convicted of insincerity of- a much more reprehensible character. Mr. Bellattempted at Malpeque to make some party capital out of oyster-leasing by stirring up opposltioii OH tht* Dart ofthe fishermen, while all the time he himself, through his wife, was an oyster area lessee!

Tho disconcerting revelation concernliig Mr. Bell was

made by Premier Mathieson at Kensington on Tuesday night. He showed that while Mr. Bell would have us be- UOVC |10 WHS 0ilD0S0fl t0 Oyster leasing yet there are thirty acres of oyster area leased to "Helen Bell, wife of John H. Bell."

- “Mr. Bell. righteous man," exclaimed the Premier, "could not lease it slnglo acre himself, seeing that he was °i’p°B°‘| ‘-0 ii- but 110 got his wife to lease them. Perhaps

the estimates for the current year. based in every instance ithat is not the same thing, but would the emctm-age cam to

exchange the Conservative Government and its supporters, who hadthe courage of their convictions. for irman like MF- Bell guilty of such- pettlfogglng, double-dealing who would hide liimsolf behind his wife's skirts.”

We trow not. HONEST FISHERMEN AND HONEST

FARMERS HAVE THE GREATEST CONTEMPT FOR HYPOCRITES EITHER IN RELIGION OR POLITICS.

GRITS’ IMPOSSIBLE TASK

The Liberal Convention last night was. we understand,

the most solemn function so far in the present campaign. The solemnity was no doubt contributed to by the cold water invitation issued to the faithful by the Patriot. All

the former bluster had gone out of the Patriot's rallying cry. It had to confess that the task before the nominees, whoever they might be, was a “difficult one," but stiffened its backbone sufficiently to add. with a faint return to its old-time bluster, thaftlt was " not an impossible task. By choosing two strong,g vigorous and standard men at to- nlght‘s Convention," .declared the Patriot, "it is not out- side the pale of possibility that the Liberals may succeed in electing them." It “ hoped and believed that there would _bc a large and representative meeting." and held out the inducement that it would not " take long to dispose of, and the._proceedii1gs would not bc dull."

The only part fulfilled of this hope and belief was that

the proceedings_" would not be dull." They were not dull. they were intense. In the days of the party‘s former glory candidates were by no means wanting. They used to fall over one another. On this occasion volunteers were asked for, volunteers not even for a forlorn hope, but for sacrifice. And they were scarce. Ultimately, since last meeting, Mr E. T. Higgs and Mr C. Gavin Duffy were persuaded to llll the breach. Neither ls optimistic and neither enthusiastic, but they expressed their willingness to accept nomination for the sole und only reason that it would prevent the bad impression throughout tho country which an election ofthe Government candidates by acelamation would create. But their sacrifice will bu of no avail. Tho very fact that a sacrifice would be necessary had iilready caused dis- pondency in tho Grit camp from East Point to West Cape. The Grits know they have absolutely no-chance and that their task, in the words_of tho Patriot. is an almost im- possible one. lt would have been more diplomatic, and certainly more creditable, had the Grits saved the country the expense of nn election on the present occasion. lt might have been counted untotbém for righteousness.
