Parties in Senate Will S t a n d Fiftyii H y When, Present V 21c- ancies are Filled.

(Special to the Guardian)

_O'I'I‘AWA. Jan. 21.—By the death of the late Hon. W. B. Ross, Conser- vative leader 1n the Senate. the dwindling majority of Conservatives has reached the vanishing point. There are 48 Conservative members in the Senate, 44 Liberals, one Pro- gressive, who 1s to all intents and purposes Liberal-the Hon. Mr. Tur- riff-and three vacancies to fill. These vacancies will, of course, all be filled by Liberals, so barring fur- ther Conservative fatallties the par- ties during the coming session will stand fifty-fifty. Ross, though not a brilliant man, was an able lawyer and constitutionalist. The question of a successor 1s being speculated up- on. So far, only three names have been mentioned-lire Hon. Gideon Robertson, who was Minister of La- bor in the Borden and Melghen min- istries, who was put forward strongly when Mr. Ross vlas appointed to suc- ceed the late Sir James Loughecd, and who may be the successful can- didate this time. He is very popular with his party, and was an able ad- ministrator when minister. The Hon. J. A. Calder is the second on the 11st, and although almost a silent. member when he was Minister of Immigra- tion and Colonization is regarded as a power in the background. He really best known. apart from the fact that he definitely left the Lib- eral party, along with Premier Sifton of Saskatchewan, and joined the Un- ion Government. as author of what is known as the Calder Act, under the provisions of which a number of clvll servants, not otherwise provided for were able to retire with superannua- tion. He was regarded in Saskatche- wan as the ablest political manipu- lator in the province, but. the very fact of his former Liberal affiliations may militate against his chances of becoming leader. The third member of the Senate mentioned is W.B. Wil- loughby, Moosejaw, Saskatoon. Or- iginally an Ontario politician, and an unsuccessful candidate for Cardwcll. he went to Saskatchewan where llo was elected to the Legislature and succeeded Sir Frederick Haultain. when the latter was appointed Chief Justice of the Province. In 1917 he was appointed to the Senate by Sir Robert Borden. He is a man of con- siderable ability and a fighting force. Sir George E. Foster. though the nes- tor of Canadian Conservative states- men. ~has not been mentioned so far. He is now too old to take on the dut- ies of ‘leadership, at least for long. As to his outstanding ability as an or- ator and parliamentary debatertherc is. of course, no question. The ques- tion will be decided at the first call- cus of Conservative Senators held after the opening, but as the Senate does not usually begin to function seriously until after the Commons has accumulated sufficient business for the Senate to deal with, many of the members do not arrive until then. In the meantime. it. is thought that Senator Gideon Robertson will act as temporary leader. In a. previous despatcll, containing an outline of possibilities in the way of legislative programme. no mention was made of immigration, for the reason that an announcement was impending, and it was thought better to wait before hazarding what might prove H20 be mere guesswork. Last session and during the Parliamentary recess immigration was a lively issue. Mr. Forkehas been kept more or less on the gridiron. and though he usu- ally has a goodnaturcd Scotch com- placency llc occasionally lost his temper. The new mmounccmcnt is of new arrangements -to place 6 0 trained British farmers in Canada. As the result of much ragging and nagging from all parts of the Dom- inion and from various points of vlcw. the Department has definitely decided 1n favor of British settlers as far as possible. Great Britain has been placed in the strictly prefer- rcd list. and European foreigners on

and cultivation of Quebec lands.

There was intimation in the out- line referred _ to of both railways seeking authority for extensions and newbranch lines in the West. Fur- ther particulars are available, and it. hasdeveloped that the C.P.R. and the C.N.R. are likely to have a stand up fight in the Railway Committee. The CPR. propose tapping the new mining areas. including Sudbury and Flin Ron fields, the entire program involving 1,200 miles of new track. The C.N.R.. 1s asking for protection of its branch lines, which is regards as largely its exclusive territory. At all events. it objects to theduplica- tion- of lines where one system will serve the wants of the communities so tapped. and in this connection Slr Henry Thornton has issued a. strong statement of protest. When two great corporations. one of them of national status. lock horns we may look for what. might be called a Tl- tauic struggle. There will be no blood shed or violent upheavals of a political nature-the Railway Com- mittee and Parliament will look after thnt—but it will furnish much inter- est. while is lasts, to parliamentary proceedings. ,

the non-preferrd list. and the rail- ways have been instructed to reduce) the latter by 30 per cent. The de-j partment 1s really not opposed to

Scandinavians or those of Teutonic

stocks generally, it being admitted} that they make excellent settlers. but l the objection is to those of the _morc southern races of which we have a-
