Gadsby. The Peychology of Elections Ottawa, May The idea OY a general election 5 year has not been abandoned. The date has prob- ably been shifted fsom June io Sep- tember. The Government believes past experiences being. considered that Sptember is its lucky month. Outside the hunch that the month they came in on is the month they ought to try it again, the party has several other good reasons for favor- ing September. By that time the war will be over or the ead of it will be in sight and Learts will be caught .on the rebound. The sense of relief will be so great that Canada will re- turn the Conservative Government to power in spite of its shortcomings This theory, which leans heavily on the reflex action of public opinion, is being loudly proclaimed by i pyschologists in the Cabinet and the party at large, The Honorable Bob Rogers, who is not a psychologist but a plain everyday politician who wants an election when he wants it and not three months afterwards, says that this is all piffle. He hasn't much use for an outfit of psycholo- © gists who can't recognize the psycho- | logical moment when they see it All sorts of arguments have been employed to persuade the Minister of Public Works that September is the §oonth of destiny but to all such ar- ts he hag substantially replied, you make me Minister of ** you didn't trust me work the public?" nr. at takes a lot of ar of Public Bob argues, ectieep his ear viet when > ond smaneBt TL 'se otha p may e Ament 1 ned CCalong «othe fate ou Convicted Of Murder. Calgary, Alta, May 6.--Richard! Lyons, alias Payne, former Manitoba militiaman, was this afternoon found, guilty of the murder of Roy Blair at | Calgary, brakesman, whom he shot | when discovered beating his way on! a freight a year ago. Lyons was sentenced to be hanged at Leth- bridge jail on July 20. The jury added a rider recommending mercy on the ground that the shooting was done without the intention to kill.

The! feet of him who bringeth bad tidings [Trom the Roblin Government with its wobbling majority of three or four have worn holes in the carpet in Bob | Roger's 'Inner office -and 'it's Bob { Rogers that knows it. His collea- gues don't seem to realize how im- 'portant it is that the election be brought on while the Manitoba elec- { tion machinery is in friendly hands. | Common sense, as you will ob- {serve, is with the Honorable Bob in! {desiring an election before the Bor-! {den government gets one black eye | {in Manitoba and another in British {Columbia. Common sense, we re- peat, is with Bob but the extraordin- lary circumstances are against him. The extraordinary circumstances are {the war and the Governor-General, who is above parties and represents honor, decency - and a number of! things like that. It is unconceivable that His Royal Highness, who is | more concerned with the dignity of the British Empire and the fair name of Canada than he is with the tacti- cal advantage of either party should | sign the warrant for a general elec- tion before the lists for the unorgan- ized territories are ready. The Duke does not lend himself to thimble-rig- ging games. ¢ | In various ways, the Honorable ' Bob has tried to rush his. colleagues off their feét. If they listen to the protests of decent people all over Canada against an election in war time, also to the still small voice of conscience, they will temporize. They have not promised anything but they have not made any bad breaks. They have not set a date but they . have formed a hope. That hope may spell September, It becomes more apparent daily | that the plan to take the vofes of the | soldiers at the front is neither prac- ticable nor dignified. Brushing aside Rhe possible objections of the British pvernment and General Joffre to Siractions which might slacken dis- e. and interfere with the suc- ga! the war, it is absurd to think would interrupt i, on issues they know no- The duty of the scri- down in the Act, is to , of the soldiers.
