REVOLT OF THE GRIT PRESS:
Mi ASURING OLhDer people
half i ushel the Patriot intimates that the uewspapers which are condemning the orruption snd present government and their officials are motives,
é niurest of
rot netuated br the These newspapers are called cranks,and 1t is said that in the past some ofthem were not so ready to draw attention to certain abuses as they now are. This is doubtless very strong argument from the Patriot’s point of view, but it is decidedly thin and will hardly wash. The Liberal party have only been in power a li:tle Over a year and in that short time their conduct has been auch as to call strong expressions of disapproval ffom not a few of their own papers. And the end is not vet.
In thia connection it may be pointed out that the revolt against Tarte rnle at Ottawa is spreadiag, and the French ani English journals of Montreal are taking a hand in the fight. That extremely Liberal paper, Le Reveil, in the course of an article headed “The Duty of the Hour,” draws an analogy between Sir Wilfrid Laurier and the late Premier Mercier. Sir Wilfrid is now returning from Europe
in a blazeof glory as Mr. Mercier did some yearsago. The Revei! adds: —
“The Baiede Chaleurs scandal was springing in the public mind only a few dave after Mercier’s return, and he had not the face to expel the thieves who had speculated on his popularity Hon Mr. Laurier set sail for Europe, leaving a com- pact party behind him. In a few days the Drummond counties railway scandal ia
unearthed. Aceusations were leveled againet the ministry which is badly defended by Tarte. The Ronge party
protests against the minister’s actions, and discord reigns in our ranks. With hia history of Mercier’s fall, under exactly similar circumstances, before him, the prime minister is already lapped over. and he should not hesitatea minute if he wishes to save his party. In expelling Tarte from the government he will immediately rallv the dissatisfied ones around him. and_ the splendid nrestige he has obtained in Eng- land and France will be enhanced bv the gratitude of the true friends of the liberal party. Believe us, Sir Wilfrid, and put Tarte out. Put him out gently, although he doesn’t deserve it, but put him out at all cost.”
But Le Reveil is paper that is calling for the suppression of the immaculate Tarte. The Montreal Witness also expresses a wish that Sir Wilfrid would do something along the same
not the only Grit
line. Mr. Tarte’s Montreal harbor policy is condemned by the whole business “community. But the
doughty Commissioner of Public Works hae hisown reasons for standing by it, and therefore refuses to upprove the plans of the harbor board. Evidently itis a life and death struggle between the commercial interests of Montreal and Minister Tarte backed by the boodlers. The Witness Says :
“The time of crisis for Canada’s* com- merce has arrived and Montreal’s future is about to be fixed. The question simply is whether ber port is going to be ruled by her commercial interests or by those who have squandered her interests to gorge vulture companies and syndicates. Not- withatanding the wrong-headedness of a minister, which has no parallel in all our political history, the choice is still in the hands of our commercial men. The ques- tion is, how manv of them are independent enough to fight for their city’s interest ? How many of them are out of the ring of spoilers and can stand up with clean hands for public interesis ?”
In the interests of the political morality of Canada in general, and in the interests of the commerce of the important city of Montreal in particular, it is hoped that the protests of these two good Grit papers will be heeded by Sir Wilfrid. Tarte evidently has other than public interests in view, and be should be promptly suy- pressed by the premier. The outcome of the agitation will be awaited with interest.
But Tarte has been of great service to Sir
