But the real objection to socialism which the political partisans have con- ' jured up for themselves is a self-cre- Succeisfu Wa. ch “Repairing only from a party standpoint, and is pepends upon the intelligence and skill of the watchmaker. based on the party practice of grab- bing the spoils for the victors. The essence of socialism would be the ab- sence of party. It would be the fulfil- ment of Macaulay’s ideal, “Where none were for the party and all were nor any other partisan politician could imagine a condition of things where none were for the party. Hence the further difficulty of imagining the con- dition of things when all would be for the state. And yet it is only to the extent that the parties have dropped party ends and served the state with single heart that party government has been successful in our generation. Party g0vernment in recent times has not been a division of men guided by different principles, but rather a separation of the sheep and the goats on the basis of honesty being the"bsst policy. A strong conviction among the people that Sir James’ predeces- sors in office were not politically hon- est drove them out of power. A simi- lar conviction that Sir James and his government are politically honest will maintain "them in power in the face of many economic fallacies, and belief in such absurdities as that the nationali- zation of the land would lead to the dissolution of the home and marriage and the disappearance of religion. In political optics the party lens turns things upside down. - When the com- petitionsin honesty becomes sufficient- ly keen to, abolish the spoils system, and to assure the people that‘a square .deal for everybody is the e ual aim of either party, socialism nee no longer masquerade as a. compromise between efficiency and sound economics, but will put on the ermine of royal justice. Meanwhile SirJames should realize ,that his strength in the province lies ' what has been described and de- ‘ no‘gnced by the trusts and the capital- 'ists as his socialistic legislation, with the Hydro-Electric Act in the fore- front of his achievements. His ster- ling honesty has-Won him the confi- dence of the people, and they recog- nize the value the utility of his re« forms. Should Mr. R0well ever suc- ceed in convincing the people that he and his party are of equal integrity and equally to be trusted, political competition and electoral success will depend for Sir James, as for all gov- ernments, on willingness to regard the rights of the people as superior to the rights of any class or individual The rights of the people, of which there is no, more outspoken advocate than Sir James Whitney, are the foundation of socialism. \We have a well earned reputation for doing good watch work.

The effect of the proposed introduc- tion of Hydro power into Petcrbo- rough is‘having the same effect there as it has had everywhere else. The lo- cal :company there, which has has had everything its own way in the matter of charges, is engaging in a rate cut- ting warfare, in order to keep people, if pessiblc, from making contracts with the Hydro. Some people are listening to the song of the siren, as they d‘d Ibere, and are signing long-term conâ€" '-. ltracts, simply because the rates are ‘ cut in two. They forget that the Hy- dro is their own concern, and the more users the Hydro has the cheaper will be the rates, and at the same time they own it.
