YEAR 79 -NO. 190 y LAURER WILL NOT JON IN NAVAL CONFERENCE ---- As His Views are Too Firmly! Fixed. ------ TO REMOVE. QUESTION FROM PARTY SPHERE 18 DEEM.

The possibility of. Sir Willfid Lau rier being party to sich a conference, is, however, scouted by prominent lib crals at the capital. Apart froin Wilirid giving up hin right to criticism of the govern ment's. policy by attending, and taking part mn suc h a ek: it 12 com tended that a question of principle would be at stake by so doing. It is powmnted out that he has already been sa conference on the subjéet,'or at least what was equivalent 10-it, namely, a Jot resolution passed in tho hous 1909, by which both parties, Mi Borden "included, agreed that there should be a Canadian navy, operated by Canada. With regard (0 any emergency grant which it may be proposed to give it is considered here that Sir Wilfrid Laurier will naturally insist upon it boing made plain that there is such an emergency, and that urgent help ie needed before he will: commit himgeli and his party to the support of any suggestion toward that end, and the matter, it is generally conceded, will have to be threshed out in the house, wince it is cor sidarecd®probable that the emorgency will be of such urgent na ture as to warrant it being met befor: the house wits.
