Smallpeice, will be for the government to finish the work." Government ownership was not the conservative policy in connection with this railway. Mr. Borden had a patch- work scheme which he tried to foist upon the party without success. A wing of it advocated government own- ership, and he came out hali-heartedly for it on the eve of the election four years ago. He lost--as he deserved to do--since no man in the words of Abe Lincoln would think of swapping bors- es while crossing the stream. He lost the support of those who have no faith in the public ownership of great utilities, and he did not recover it in the last election. Report has it that there was a fierce conflict in the party caucus over this matter, that there were serious differ- ences of opinion, but that in the end the members accepted Mr. Borden's policy. They were practically beaten into subjection, and for party reasons. Mr. Borden knows that the party out- side of parliament is hopelessly divid- ed on this subject, hut he will advo- cate it, knowing, and perhaps hoping, that it. will be defeated, while he end party punish the Grand Trunk Pacific for its presumed friendliness towards the liberal gov- ernment. There is to be, in -other words, a great sham battle for politi- cal effect. S---------------- EDITORIAL NOTES. Mr. Studholme wants the judges to be put on piecework.

Now why cannot the Province of On- tario imitate the Province of Alberta and guarantee the bonds of the com- pany for a certain amount--after the work has been done ? The Rutherford government has assurances that the G. T. P. and C. N.

In the judg- ment of the writer of the article refer- red to (with which I thoroughly agree), any damage which the 'finan- cial credit of Ontario' has sustained is really due to the improvident and, as many think, unfair legislation of SPIRIT OF THE PRESS GIRL LOSES SPEECH.
