THURSDAY, JUNE 3, 1915.
THE KlN(i’S BIRTHDAY
Throughout the length and breadth of tlic‘ British
Empire this day will be celebrated in a manner never
hithetro experienced in the world’s history. THE KING,
GOD BLESS HIM. LONG LIVE THE KING! Klli§
George V. represents all that is best, greatest and most.
glorious in religion, humanity and civilisation. Wherever
his flag is unfurled tyranny and oppression vanish aud_
freedom. justice and mercy take their Dlfme- T045! U16
Empire and three-fourtlis of the civilised world are en-
gaged iii a deadly conflict for the sole purpose of maln-
taining the principles of right, truth, honour and justice,
for which the flag at all times has stood and for ever shall
stand. Right must_pi~evail, but right only can prevail when
men are forthcoming to battle for the right. King George
V. does not merely represent right and righteousness; he
is the “defender of the faith "; and as the defender of the
faith he practices what he preaches. George V. much more
resembles in his -manner of life Queen Victoria the Good
than even his father, King Edward, did. _He is a. family
man, never happier than when surrounded by his Queen
,and royal family. Following Mark ’I’waln's advice, he
‘believes that the best way to train up a child in the way
he should go is for the old man to go that way himself.
There are three outstanding principles at the foundation of
lthe King’s manner of living. lie never travels on Sunday,
with him it is a day of rest and family reunion. He
attends Church at least once every Sunday. He reads a
chapter of his bible every day of the week. These are
customs not now universally observed, but they are the
basis of Britain's greatness, and it is pleasant to think
that, however unfasliionable they may have become outside
the royal circle, the King of Great Britain and Ireland and
the Doniinions beyond the seas does not consider himself
too exalted to neglect the precepts and example of his royal
mother. Queen Alexandra, and his royal grandmother,
Queen Victoria the Good. He has added to these virtues
within the past few weeks the further one of total abstin-
ence for himself and household during the continuance of
the war. He himself has always been an abstainer since
early manhood, and now he is a prohibitioiiist.
King George is probably more British and imperialist
than any king that has occupied the British throne. ln
early life he spent much time in touring the Colonies and
British possessions, becoming thoroughly imbued with the
lniperialist_i_c spirit. He took as the partner of his joys and
sorrows a British princess. and he settled down to all
the comforts and happiness of home life in a manner
clinracteristic of British donicsticity. There has been no
gaddliig about the (fontineiit, sans wife, sans childrcii sans
kingsliip, with George V. He has made England and
Scotland his dwelling-placc, and when he has had leisure
from his klngly duties hc has spent the time visiting the
industrial centres of his kingdom. studying the social
problems on the spot and interesting himself in all that
coiicerus the joys and sorrows of the humblest and most
hardworking of his loyal subjects. Hence he has attained
the distinction of being known in the “black country" of
England as “Aar Jarge" (“ Our George ")-not a. term of
familiarity so much as of ciidearment. Elsewhere he is
spoken of as “ The I’cople's George" just because he has
of his own volition devoted himself to furthering and
nilvaiiciiig the commercial and industrial interests of his
people. His memorable words at the Mansion House on
his return from his tour of the Dominions still ring ln our
ears, applicable as they are sto the present conditions,
“ Wake up; Eiiglandl "
To-day there will not lic the rejoicing and galety that
might have been under iliffcneiii, circumstances, as it is
llis Miijesty's express wish that there should he no piibllc
dinners. balls or other celebrations apart from the flying
of thc Union Jack, the review of troops, and the firing of
the royal salute. But the day will be none the less loyally
and dcvotedly observed on that account, for the Kliig has
set a noble example in sending two of his sons to the front.
The Prince of Wales is in France. and Prince Albert, who
visited this Island about eighteen months ago, is with
Jolltcoe's fleet in the North Sea.
The heartfelt prayer of all loyal subjects to~day will be
"G00 SHVB U10 Kills. Send lilni victorious, happy and
glorious, long to reign over us, God save our King."
LIBERAL EVIL DAYS
The once great Liberal party has fallen upon very evil
days. lt has no leaders iii whom it can trust. It went down
to defeat on the reciprocity issue because these leaders
were false to Canada and it has been reduced to a still sad-
der ruin because these same leaders are false to the Em-
pire. lt is hard to see in what respect the banner of Can-
adian Lll>@\'BllHm C0\Ild be worse besmlrclied or the old
principles of the old Liberal party more utterly abaiiiloned.
The loss of office has been followed by an exhibition of
party mismanagement and of a shameful opportunlsm in
the face of a great imperial crisis which has had the lu-
evitable effect of alienating thousands of dopent minded
Llbemls fl‘°U1 U10 DHT-5' D! which-they were once proud.
The name of Laurier, once a name to _conjure with, has
become a hyword in Canada. The instinct of true leader-
ship does not exist in any of the incn who are striving and
jostling for first place in the party at Ottawa. The party
has tumbled to pieces and those who should have rebuilt it
have brought upon it s more complete destruction. Sitice
the close of the session, a session which brought the very
name of Liberalism into disrepute. there have been numer-
ous evidences of the hopeless condition in which the party
finds itself.
Sir Wilfrid Laurier has been spending his. time vainly
seeking by explanations, promises and persuasion to get
the party together and to satisfy them that a continuance
of his leadership does not mean it still more dipmpl wreck
in the future. The tragic part of this situation is to be
found ln the fact that Sir Wilfrid Laurier is compelled to
do this sort of work since this man had merely to lift s
finger and iobring to his door all those leading party men
whom now he has to go a seeking, hat in hand, wherever
they happen to`be. ` 1 \ . ll

The Naval issue gave- Str Wilfrid -Laurier the great
chance of his life, a chance to rehabilitate himself with
extent at least, a chance to
prove himself a great Canadian and to give to the world
an illustration of Cnnadian_ur_iity in support of the Empire
ln a critical time! Liberals from all over Canada urged
him to take this high statesmanlike course. He did not
listen to them. He listened instead to a group of ex-Mln-
lsters, a number of whom were without responsibility to

Little Canadian course, to make party politics out of a
great Imperial question and to shame Canada in the eyes
of the world. lt will be a long time before Canadians for-

‘Sir Wilfrid Laurier before that slain is worn away.
WHERE THE MONEY’S SAVED
ln its yesterdays issue the Patriot gives another inspir-
ing comparison between the present Government and the
biuikrupt clique which served as a government pre-
vious to 1912. This time it has chosen the Department of
Public Works for its demonstration, and here is the result:
The Liberals, in 1911, spent $3,971.96 on this Department in
,salaries and travelling expenses, according to the Patriot.
According to the Public Accounts their annual average
expenditure on capital account and permanent works was
$10,934.41. In other words, th¢ir salaries and travelling
expenses amounted, in round numbers, to 33 1-3 per cent.
of their outlay on permanent works.
The Conservatives in 1914,according to the Patriot, spent
'$9,080.56 on salaries and travelling expenses. According
to the Public Accounts their annual average expenditure
on capital account and permanent works was $51,290.50.
In other words, their salaries and travelling expenses
amounted, in round numbers, to 17'/2 per cent. of their
Or, JUST ONE HALF OF
WHAT THE LIBERALS HAD SPENT.
Wfhat the Patriot fails to grasp is that it is comparing
a going concern with a concem that " went broke ” after
twenty years of deplorable mismanagement. The Patriot
does not appear to understand this, but the great majority
of its readers sec it and \vc are indebted to our esteemed
contemporary for bringing the points to their notice.
Nothing can do the Matliieson Government more good
than to make these comparisons, and certainly notliing
can so effectually save the country from ii repetition of
_ A remarkable passage occurs in "The Life of Beiijainin
Dlsraeli," iii an extra ct from aletter written by him on the
probable result of the dispute between Germany and Den-
mark over Sclilesing-Holstein. We quote:
“But Germany,whlch possesses almost every other nd-
vautage, is not a great naval power, and Germany wants
af coast. This is the real reason why Denmark, supposed to
be weak, is to be invaded in this age of liberty on the plea
of nationality. It is to gain the harbors of the Baltic, and
to secure the mouths of the Elhe, that thc plea of German
nationality is put forth. . . . in -order that Prussia may
suddenly appear as a great maritime power. I do not wish
to argue this case with respect to thc interests of England.
about whether it is or is not
for the interest of England that n new naval power should
spring up among the nations of the Baltic or the northern
seas. But this I wish to lay down as a principle-that it is
for the interest of England, and not of England alone, but
of all Europe. that peace siiould be maintained. And peace
cannot be maintained if the policy of Prussia be permitted
to pass unnoticed and unccnsured."
Disracli was att his time ln opposition. , Prussia pre-
vailed and when Lord Salisbury in a moment of weakness
gave her I-ieligoland she soon became a formidable mari-
time power. Disra oil was well iiciniaiiited with foreign
affairs and his observations on them were always sngaclous

PRAYER OF HELP
"O Lord. support us all
day long of this troublous
life. until the shadows
lengthen and the evening
comes and the busy world
is hushed and the fervour of
lilo is over, and our work
is done. Then in Thy mercy
grant us a safe lodging and
a holy rest, and peace at the
last, through Jesus Christ
our Lord. Amen."
The words of this prayer
are like gentle dew drop-
ping on the patched ground.
They speak of rest and
peace and the passing of
li_fe‘s troublous hours. Such
is the comfort which comes
to those bereaved to~day.
They think of those who
have gone, as having given
,thpir lives for the cause of
zfiieedom. for the cause of
rlghtpand they know that
they have won an eternal
crown.
