The Government held its breath, but did not change its mind. It was still of the opinion that a general election was what was needed in their business' and the Hon. Bob Rogers went so far as to discover the "voice of thunder' with which the people were demanding it. How- ever, it wag only stage thunder and the election did not come off, though the Government mado special prepar- ations for it in the shape of a Votes for Soldiers .\ct which wag to take care of the army at home and abroad One remembers with what ardor Premier Borden at that time cham- pionad the Votes for Soldiers bill, which, so he said, was to enable the men who fought for Canada to exer- cise the second highest privilege of his citizenship--namely, to vote for it. Premier Borden calculated that when the soldiers voted for Canada they would vote for the Borden Gov- ernment and, under that impression, ballots were printed and sent across the ocean to the High Commissioner in London, in whose office they re- main stacked to this day It was no surprise when Premier Borden, at the last session of Par- liament, recanted all he hid - said about votes for soldiers, He took the ground that votes for soldiers were scattered all over the map and that, besides, it was on impertinence to ask them to intermit their high duty of killing the Germans for any- thing so trivial comparatively as a general election. Plainly something had happened to change Premier Borden's mind. Not to make a long story of it the things that had hap- pened and which had come to the soldiers' ears and had stuck in their crops were these: Sir Sam Hughes, Lisutenant Colonel John Wesley Allison, Paper Shoes, Foundered Horses, Profiteering, Camp Borden, Ross Rifle, High Cost of Living for Soldier's Families at Home, Separa- tion Allowances and Assigned Pay Soaked up by the Government's Friends, the Cold Storage Kings, and other things too numerous to men- tion. In short Premier Borden began to suspect that the soldier vote was "agin" him, and when the British Columbia soldiers put the boots to the Bowser outfit as soon as they got the chance, Premicr Borden was confirmed in his suspicion. Premier Borden may be a little thick, but he doesn't need more than one house to fall on him before he tumbles. Be- sides, the @ritish Government told him it would be a hafd matter to take the soldiers vote anyway, and Pre- mier Borden was very glad to agree with them, o So in 1916 the orden Government was in a chastened frame of mind-- so chastened that it forgot all its plots for a general election and wil- lingly took what the people gave them--namsly, an extension to Oc- tober, 1917. They took it because it was all they could get. They knew it was their last chance, Some sug- gestion was made that they would ex- tend their term indefinitely by using their majority in the House and the Senate and cutting out the consent of the British Parliament( but this assault on the British North America Act was too raw to get away with and was dropped. What helped to take the pep out of the Borden Government was the fatal results in the provinces which have held general elections since Just before the war started. The first blow was Manitoba, which turned the putrid Roblin Government out and converted a Conservative majority of five into a Liberal major- ity of thirty-nine. This was in July, 1914, and the smell the Roblin crowd Government which had been in the saddle for thirty-five years by raising its majority from sixteen to twenty- | one. These blows were probably ex- pected, but when 'British Columbia took the rotten Bowser-McBride crowd in hand and turned a Conser- vative majority of thirty-six into a Liberal one of twenty-seven, the Borden Government felt that the end was in sight" At any rate that was all they wanted for 1916. ° Early in 1917 only | in fact--came perhaps the worst | facer of all. New Brunswick, which! had a Conservative Government { boasting 4 majority of forty-threa:| and about as many scandals, threw the scandals out with such force that a landslide took place. The Liberal Government in that fortunate pro- vince now has a majority of six and New Brunswick goes on Premier Borden's black list . The victory, un- der Providence, is largely due to the moral force and fighting quality of Frank Carvell, M.P., who is as vig- orous a crusader in his own provigee as he is at Ottawa.

Add to this the fact that Conservative papers in the Northwest are beginning to adver- tise their independence and one un- derstands why Promier Borden has that haunted look. Meanwhile the Government is get- ting ready to meet its fate with a good front, To do this a little win- dow-dressing has to be done. The first effort along this line was firing Mrs. R. Milligan of Enterprise Re- "ceived Letter From Soldier. Mrs, R. Milligan of Enterprise has received a letter from "Somewhere in France' from Pte John Lamb, of the 43rd Transport Section, Cameron Highlanders of Canada.

He returned sincere thanks for the socks. ¢ Mrs. Milligan also received a let- ter from Mildred Lamb wife of Pte. John Lamb, who lives at Winnipeg, thanking her for her kind gift to her husband. It is of interest to note that the socks sent overseas by Mrs. Milligan were just a year reaching an owner. They were shipped on Feb. 5th, 19186, and were received by Pte. Lamb on Feb, 7th, 1917. quimaux or the hyphenated Ameri- cans--not conscription, you know, but a safe substitute. The next thing was to cancel the Ross fifie contract and expropriate tHe factory, thus throwing two thousand men out of employment, after they had been kept working two years and a half on a rifle the British authorities refused to make use of on the battlefield. Incident- 1lly some seven or eight million dol- lars wag wasted in this way before the government made up its mind to stop the expense at a time chosen with a view to doing the least harm to the shareholders and making the most of it as a campaign argument. The Ross rifle, reported against, tinkered _with, reported against again, but still thrust on our sol- diers until the British generals ab- solutely took it out of their hands and substituted the Lee-Enfield--is one of the most shameful of many stains on the Borden Government: The last bit of window-dressing is perhaps the boldest--after waiting thirty-two months Postmaster Gen- eral Blondin volunteers for overseas service.

Johnston, of Humboldt, Sask., who has been visiting in the city, is one of the few men now in Saskatchewan who. have returned from the Mestopotamian campaign. He had an interesting story to tell of his experiences last evening when asked for a recital of accomplish- ments of the British troops. Dr. Johnston enlisted from Saskatchewan in September, 1915, with the R A.M. C. and for a year served with the British troops in Mestopotamia., He was invalided home after contracting enteric fever, and has now come back to practice his profession. On arriving in England, Dr. Jeohn- ston was detailed to serye in the east and was given charge of the medical department of a British base hospital at Basra on the Tigris, near the Per- sian gulf. The two incidents, which stand out prominently during his time of ser- vice, were the receiving of the mes- sige from General Town 1 and the death of Sir Victor Fi y from heatstroke while serving in Mesopo- tamia. With the Relief Puy. On the day that General Towns- hend surrendered, the relieving for- ces were only a short distance from Kut-el-Amara and Dr.. Johnston was with the party of officers who re- ceived the historic message, "I sur- rendered today at two o'clock. I thank God I have done my duty." Dr. Johnston had gone up on tha boats to bring back the wounded to at Basra. All along the journey he had been kept on the jump on the river boat, dodg- ing bullets from unfriendly Arabs, who were sniping from the shores. He had also to attend to some pa- tients which had been taken aboard. Fatigued almost to the point of giv- ing up, Dr. Johnston nevertheless kept up with the remainder of the force and at the stopping point had EVEN CROSS, SICK No, indeed, Mr. Blondin will stay at home and raise a Quebec regiment.

She addressed him as "Im perial Majesty." Not a little amused, for at that moment his chance of sue- ceeding even to the throne of Prussia seemed slight, the prince asked 'Imperial Majesty, and of what em- pire pray?"

The Department of Militia and De- fence has announced that for the twelve months ending December 21st, 1916, only 167 cases of typhoid fever were reported as having occurred amongst the many thousands of men of the C.E.F. in Canada, and this notwithstanding the fact that typhoid fever is a disease especially affecting young adults from seventeen to thir- ty years of age. This comparative freedom is strik- ing when it is recalled that during the Boer war one man out of every nine in the British forces in South Africa wag invalided through this disease, and that in the Spanish- American war, of 107,000 men in the camps at Tampa, Florida, and elsewhere, who had not left the shores of the United States 20,000 contracted the disease, The remark- able change can be attributed .only to the process of inoculation.
