Alexander Macdonald, the pioneer Winnipeg wholesaler, gives expression to what has been in the thoughts of |a great many in recent weeks. "IH 1 were the dictator of Winni- peg," he said, in an interview, "I would undettake to give employment and provide food for every unemploy- ed person in this city and I would not go twenty miles from the city to do it.

It required the kaiser to butt in and apply the torch which has brought about this terrible con- flagration. So much for what man can do when a military tor arises, Another would supply a great ob- ject lesson if he, as an industrial die- tator, could direct the along absolutely unique lines, viding employmeni at rates would enable the working man to live in comfctt.
