KH. t MILVERTON, ONTARIO LOTH] INDEPENDENT POLITICAL ACTION (Farmers' Sun.) _. The Globe warns the farmers that if they persist in independent politi- cal action, their candidates in many constituencies will not differ appre- ciably on the fiscal issue from their Liberal opponents, that that will be favorable to the Conservative party, and it advises that the parties that are nearest together in principle ei to try to get together in prac- ice. ; If it were clear that the Liberals and farmers were honestly in sub- stantial accord on the fiscal issue, this "warning would deserve careful consideration. But such accord is not evident in the protectionist con- fession recently made by the tem- porary House Leader of the Liber- als, by the long labor of The Globe to side-track tariff reform for its Aus- tralian programme, or by the resolu- tion of M. McMaster now in debate ;in the Commons. Mr, McMaster's de- clarations that the tariff should be sine bah i : "To free the food of the peopl and the machinery used in ha ae velopment of the national resources of Canada together with the raw ma- terial entering into the manufacture thereof.

To the farmers, the fiscal issue assumes a new aspect as a@ reult of the exorbitant demands of industrial capital and labor, at a time when the prospective outlays of gov- ernment for normal purposes will as- suredly exhaust all the savings of in- dustry. If the factories are to be kept going profitably on their presen scale of development and industri labor is to have its demands of hours and wages, independent political ae- tion, no matter what may be the odds or the political consequences, becom- es a duty of self-preservation, : _ Try.
