1916.
There are two explanations of Sir Lomer G0uin’s q
sweeping victory at the polls in Quebec. The first is e
Sir Lomer’s great personal popularity and influence; th
the second the racial issue. Sir Lonier is one of the in
greatest premiers Quebec has produced- and though n
practically an autocrat, lie has administered the ahfairs p
of the province, on the whole, to the entire satisfaction n
of thc people, commercial and agricultural. Ile is a to
moderate man, so moderate in Dominion politics that tl'
there was talk at one time of his entering the Borden at
Govcrnnient. Few, if any of the English Conservative pa
newspapers in Montreal opposed Sir Lomer, and this cr
may be taken as proof that they were quite satisfied th
with the manner in which he has in
him and asked:
"\\'hy should my opponents use sentiment to at- [`
tack ine? \\`hy should it be thought that it is in our f
interest to continually fight _these questions in the pro- O
viiice of Quebec, and because the fire is elsewhere that _-
we should set it here? They are doing more evil with \
these qiicstioiis than has been done for 25 years past. \
I)o you want a civil war in the country." ri
Again, on another occasion, referring to this vote, 3
he said: _
“If I had ten votes to give, I would have done the W
same as I did on that occasion. If I fall by the wayside It
it will be a great souvenir for me at least, for I voted 1)
according to what I believc.l :arid still believe to have u
been right.”
Another question which played a leading part in b
election was the conscription bogcy.
for allit was worth by the Liberal Nationalists. Nr. r
Tancréde Marcil and Mr. Armand Laverguc made a to
vigorous.campaign along these lilies. “I ani a Liberal t
but a Nationalist at the same time on the question of v
compulsory enlistment or enlistment forced through o
f'n'nine,” declared Mr Marcil and
‘ ‘ - ' PP
any attempt to force Imperialism on Canada. C
This. then. is the explanation of the Liberal sweep c
of Quebec. Sir Loiner Gouin lent no assistance by o
word or deed to the extremists, and while he personal- t
ly attracted to his support the moderate element who_ st
the past evcrciscd
This was worked

~ - publishing the correspondence- which .\lr. Dewar ques- 'md lend Wu' Wm and y°“r strength
his power and influence. \Nith a premier so universal- ti
ly popular, there was little in politics left to fight over, na
and in any event Sir Loincr would have been returned be
by a substantial majority. But in addition to the Pre- th
mier’s popularity, the Conservatives had to contend to
against the racial issue. In coiiiicctioiiwitli the school tl
question in (lntario, Ur. Armand I.a\'ei‘giie, .\I. L. A. be
announced that he intended to make it an issue in Que- d
bee. llc stated that “the rights of the French in On- p
tario are the same as those which were embodied in the d
immortal victory of Lafontainc. If the French of tl
Ontario have not the right to teach their language i_n m
their schools- the English have not the right in the Pro~ k
vincc of Quebec.” Similar sentiments were express-'to
ed _throiiglioiit the length and breadth of the province; f
and even in the House of Commons, where the ques- Y
tion was raised shortly before the election, the whole Q
of the Quebec representatives put themselves on re- _.\
cord with Sir Wilfrid against the policy of Ontario. b
Althoiigli the Conservative members voted with the Li-, n
ber_als on this question, it proved of no avail in the pro~ lc
viiicial election. The cry had been raised that the il;
(lpposition favoiired the Eiiglisli, based on the fact that 3
the Leader of thc Opposition, I\lr_ Philemon Consineae in
had voted in the local legislature for the protection of ly
municipal minorities. .\lr. Cousineaii protested vi-H ,f
gourously against the use of the racial issue against »;
ons, there may be differences of opinion, as we are fare. While we deeply regret the nw-
turally sensitive regarding our short coiniiigs. Long ful war that has “used y°““e" and
fore these criticisms were published in the press uniform, yet we greatly admiré the
e facts were made known to the chcesemakers and “pmt ‘lf “'ml"3”"“s which place”
many of the patrons throughout the province, and need be. for King and Country and
ie Dairymen’s Association cénsidcred it to be in the ""“"km‘I'
st interests of the province .to place the matter can- our esteem and respect; and may
idly before the eo lc throu' li the ress. The main
P P g P
oint is that the criticisms and suggestions from the
ifferen( buyers indicate the.dift'erent requirements of
ie different markets, and it _is only fair to state that
any of the C0-operative associations and cheesema~
ers have already, as a result of this publicity, begun
set their factories in order and to make preparation
or a forward movement. _
The criticisms and suggestions offered by the buy-
rs, and the publication of these by the Dairymen’s
ssociation is not in any way a “knocking” process,
ut acandid admission that there is room for improve-
icnt, and suggestions as to how fhese improvements
an be effected. The dairy industry could get no dead-
er blow than to have it represented to the farmers
nd the factories that conditions are satisfactory and
no need of improvement. Knowing the increasing-
exacting demands of the markets and the kcenness
present day competition our people only need to be
hown what is necessary to enable them to keep their
.nd up and they will comply_ readily and willingly.
here cannot be any factions criticism or any mut"al _ _
aultfinding if we are to hold our place in the,_market. i - F ll &  ‘  '
