MACKENZIE KING. | The leader of the Liberal party in Canada comes of distinguished demo- cratic lineage. His mother was a daughter of the famous rebel leader of 1837; and as time goes on, what- ever may be thought of the method | | WHIQG is authenticated by the ABO | Audit Bureau of Circulations, i TA lot of people think "pep" con- | #ista in being forever excited about something, ------------ There are two kinds of people: Those who get rich quick, and those who think their lot is hard, The chief trouble with the "invis- { ible Empiré'" is that it shows a dis- position: to be an invistble umpire. Hard times: An annoying season during which it is necessary to give a job a little attention in order to keep it. ------------ We might increase public revenues - by requiring men to take out a license before lying about their gasoline mileage, The reason a lot of executives « Never get anywhere is because they waste too much energy being en- thusiastic, There are only two things that will make you forgive a man: Gen- uine Christianity, and the knowledge that you can }ick him, The conference will discuss dis armament, pro and con; and all will be well if there isn't too little *'pro" and too much "con." ------------ There seems to be much truth in the statement that no girl now mar- ries a man for better or worse: she marries him for more or less, The hundreds of students throng- ing the city are heartily welcome. It is the city's desire that the best of feeling will exist between town and gown, Kingston has about as fine paved streets as can be found anywhers. The macadam streets, too, in the , down town sections are aiso being put into good condition, ------------ The church people--asleep all Summer---are mow waking up and are projecting stirring programmes of work for the fall and winter. May they all develop finely. | The Board of Trade is arranging to resume its meetings. It is hoped the merchants, professional men and others will take a lively interest in its deliberations and help to bring many improvements to business life. The federa) fight will be over the tariff. Meighen says his opposition has forced the issue; he is ready for it. Do the other parties believe in the platforms they built some time ago? There is $1,000 offered for the ap- prehension of the bandits who mur- dered Constable Beard in Napanee. The men might surprise the authori- ties by claiming it themselves, con- scious of their ability to make a second escape, The high price of coal can only be reduced by a higher production and lower wages. At the mines, wages have been doubled, so have freight charges. If the country is to get back to normalcy there must be a big cut in the essentials to coal de- livery, i ------------------ Belgium and Germany are working ten to fourteen hours each day and are producing goods at such a price 'that the other countries are buying. {In this good land "more pay and shorter hours" cannot help in a de- flaton of prices such as prevail else- where. People will buy the cheapest goods, al] things being equal, | {ests for privileged classes adopted, there is general agreement | that William Lyon Mackenzie made @ great patriotic contribution to rep- resentative government in Canada. The intolerable conditions $mposed by a small group of special interests in those days will always remain as | one of the most outrageous public | scandals in the history of this coun- | try. Mr. King falls heir to this hon- | | | | orable protest against special inter- , and this | the fundamental principle upos | which Liberalism is founded. His | scholarship is adequate, he has given Some years to honest research in soc- | ial questions, and has published a book of more than ordinary merit an the Social Service problem. He was a pet of the late Sir Wilfrid Laurier, who had a peculiar fondness for him, and who promoted him more rapidly than" his age or political achieve- ments warranted; but in his handi- ing of the Chinese question in Van- couver and in the gentleman's agree- ment made with Japan regarding im- migration, Mr, King seems to have justified his leader's confidence. But Mr. King has only the rem- nant of a party to lead, for the Lib: eral party in the country, or at least the larger section of it, joined the Union government in the interests ot whole+hearted prosecution of the | war. Mr. King found himself in a| singular minority, among all the Lib- | erals of Canada outside thé proviace of Quebec. This has not been forgot- ten, and a good many old-time Liber- als have no very great love for him on that account. Besides, Mr. King made no very great impression upon the country in his tour west a year ago. Indeed, it was almost as frosty for him on the prairie as it was for Mr. Meighen who followed him pret- ty closely. Moreover, the Libarat party lost a mumber of strong men; upon whom the comfortable environ- ment of the Union caucus either haa a narcotic effect; or, as in some we!l | known cases, produced a complete | metamorphosis; some of them indeed | profess to a radical and thorough go- ing conversion to Conservative prin- ciples. This is one of the difficulties which besets the prime minister, that he must sometimes pass over staunch, old-line Conservatives to find rewards for his new converts Mr. King in his fiscal policy is fo!l- | lowing pretty closely in the footsteps of the old Liberal chioftian when lL { enunciates the principle of a "arift for revenue purposes only. It is per- is ference between his policy and that, of Mr. Meighen is not, tariff or nd' tariff, but a tariff without special protective measures for the manufac- turing interests. Mr. Meighen 1s afraid that there will not he employ- ment for industrial workers unless the capiains of industry are assured of a protective tariff whiwh amounts to a bonus, Mr. King is not worry- ing about a bonus for the manutact- urers; he wants a tariff which will ensuré the government enougu money to carry on the country's leg-' islative business. So far Mr. King will carry with him the intellectual Support of oldline Liberals, Mr. King condemns Mr. Meighen as be- ing the spokesman of special inter- ests who, Mr. King thinks, are well able to take care of themselves, He Will probably find a hearty response to these principles in the Maritime provinces; he will certainly have a very strong following in Quebec, first by his moderate tariff policy, but much more as the friend and trusteda lieutenant of the great chief whose Dame is a thing to conjure with in the French province, In Ontario, it it were mot for thie UF. 0. move- ment, Mr. 'King might have had a very considerable follow, Bu' his attitude to conseription wih not help him with the returned soldier, his tariff policy will not make him pop:- lar in the industrial centres, and the feotly safe to say that the real diti | THE tho of the pendulum in indties, once the h Nn, seems to indicate large following for 'him Besides. all (this, he has troubles within the party h distrusts his leaders: pls us dist t of victory, and pa 1 tly restive and flirtin be Agrarian -party A few have'teken the bait Tro mn tha Cone ervative camp. and have i others are wavering and ollow. Altogether, it looks as King's following in the new parlia- ment will not be much better than Ir. Meighen's, and it is at the pres- ent moment unsafe to predict tlfat either of them will have a majori of the house. desert ' i -------- | ALONG LIFE'S DETOUR | BY SAM HILL There Was a Reason, The passing years stole sc They lived {n wedded bl No quarrels m 3!
