SHor? before the last general election, Sir Wilfrid Laurier, speaking at Lindsay, Ontario said ‘There shall be a ple biecite, and the will of the people will be a-c+rtained, and what- ever lofthe people may be, it will | be the duty of the Government to carry that will into execution. ; the wl yy; s ‘ i iia is the clear ani definite promise of the Premier. We presume that the pro- hibitionists wil! bold bim to it.” But the crooked courseof the govern-~ Inénlia respect to probibition muet lead to friction among the Liberals. Speaking r wy oF al Valleytield, afew days before ihe ple | biscite was held, Mr. Geoffrion, a promin- ‘ ent member of the Cabinet xaid : “The prohibitionists may have their plebiscite, but they will have no prohibi- tion.” Whether the Liberal party will fulfil! Sir Wilfrid’s promise or hold to Mr. Geotfrion’s pledge remains to be seen, It is satisfactory, at all events, to note that the Guardian has returned to its posi» tion as « champion of national prohibition: We hope that it wil) be able to keep Sir Wilfrid up to his promise. ~-_oe + -- THEM OUT! _ TURN Harrer’s Weekty believes that the politicians of the United States are not ris.ng to their vew responsibilities. It 8 ay 8 ¢ “In spite of tue fact that we are facing e colonial problew, and that we have al- ready acquired distant territories for which bo government has been provided, the politicians are taking no steps whatever ty arrange @ proper syetem of colonial gov- ernment. Such a system must have for its basis @ permanent col.nial serviee, otherwise our colouial governments will not orly reflect but wil] exaggerate all the faaits that obtain in our domestic affiirs. Tbese distant governments will be carried on by the “b vs,” who, far away from bome, will not even be under the restraint of public opinion as expressed by the daily newspapers. Not only is it true that our politicians are not cons‘dering this probiem at all, but they are actually urg- ing the Presidert to revise the civil service list in order that he may take come offices out of the classified list, in which they are now included. f[n other words, the politi cians, instead Of raising to new responsibi-~ lities, are insisting upon falling further and turther below the old ones.” This statement is not reassuring as to the success of the new departure of the Great Republic. But the people of the Uvited States have the same right and privilege as the people of Cavada,--they can turn out the politicians who, having been weighed, are found wanting, The States, as wel! as Canada, have plenty ot able men for the public service aud they are not compeiled to reiain those who fail tocome up to the standard. ——— 2 + Ore —It is estimated that the cost of the United States navy next year will be $47,- 065,4°5. Like the public debis under our Liberal governments, the cost of tbe American navy “do keep creeping up.” The papers state that the Empressof,Cbiva the removal ofthe late Emperor were according to reporteither by strangulation or poieon or haying a red hot iron passed through his bowels, she must indeed be a remarkable woman.
