J 'I`liei'e are two alteriiatives before the
people of Caiiadzi today, in coniiectioii with
the "war, naiiiely, to “carry on" or to give
it, up; to stand by the men who have gone
forth voluntarily to Fight for us and, if'
need be, to lay down their lives for us, oi'
to abandon them and let them fall one by
one or by hundreds or by thousands as they
have fallen; to be in the war at the finish
and to share in the glory and the triumph
of it, or to cravenly back out of it a`nd_ let
the sacrifices we have made go for nothirig.
. It is not necessary to argue that if _we
are going to “carry on," it` we are going
to stand by the ineii who are dying for us,
if we are goiiig to be represeiietd at the
finish by an army of living (ianadiaiis, some
nienns other than those that have appealed
to the inaiihood of (Tanadians 'and to which
our loyal fianafliaiis have so spiendidly re~
spoiided, must be adopted. The only other
means in sight is conscription. The volun-
tary system is practically at an end. The
appeal to the manhood and the loyalty of
Canadians that has rung over the length
and breadth .of the Dominion for nearly
three years has called forth the manhood
and the loyalty and only those remain to
wlioiu such an appeal has no meaning
These must new be dealt with. _
There is opposition to conscription; riots
have already arisen and rebellion has been
threatened with a view to preventing it
This is natural. 'l`hose who refused to vol-
unteer are naturally averse to being coni-
pelledi. __'l` he slackers and the shirkcrs and
the disloyal, are opposed to coiiscriptioii.
This was to be expected. I-lad there been no
slackers or shirkcrs or disloyal the volun-
tary system would have sufiiced to fulfil
our romise_of half a million men; todo
our ¢¥u'ty by ourselves, by the Empire which
has hitherto defended us, and by the Allies
who are fighting for us as well as for them~
selves.
Op osition from these was to' be expect-
ed ut there is another class of opposi -
tionists that is more contemptible and more
dangerous than the slacker or the shirker
or the disloyal-the little partisan, office -
seeking politicians, the men who see in the
present impasse the possibility of party ad-
vanta e. _ These are the remnant of the

"l`he orgaiii7.ati»on of a Provincial lVliini-
cipal Couiicii, a report of which appears
clsewliere in this paper, is another long'
step~in the direction of that eo-operation
without which there can be no real pro-

Our province is small and compact,
but not so small that scctioiial difl`creiices
may not occasionally arise to the detriment
of the sections and of _the whole province.
'I`hei'e can be no sectional interest; which
does not concern _the whole province; there
can be neither benefit nor injury to any
individual section that does not corres-

ordinate the interests of all, to aim at the
