FRIDAY, AUG. 18, 1886.
Pteareity of 1 ann.-,
Noticing the ravages made by death iu tne
ranks of the Democratic party, by vnich Mc-
Clellan, Seymour, Hancock and Tilden, till
presidential candidates', have been taken
within a twelvemonth, the Philadelphia
Times refleotively says that "The saddest
part of it all is that no big men seem to be
growing up., in either party, to take the vat
cant places. Thia feature of modern politics
is by no means confined to the United States,
The exceeding scarcity, not merely of great,
but of big men, has frequently of 'late fur-
nished a subject of comment in England and
Canada. The unique position occupied by
Mr. Oladatone in Britain, as hied and shout.
dere above both his colleagues and leading
opponents, is in some respect' paralleled by
the situatioo in Canada, where the existence
of the Tory party, as at present organized,
hangs on the frail tenure of Sir John Mac-
donaJd's political life. The "big men" are
all dead or aged. and seem destined to leave
no successors when they vanish from the
scene. This condition of things is due in no
small measure to the ironclad partyisin of tbe
age. The tendency of the requiretnents of
party allegiance is to drive out of public life
men of independence of thought arel decided
opinions, and to put forward men t f colorless
views and no principles - sinooth.tongued,
plausible trimmers, who have ncquired the
faculty of being all things to all ineu. The
party platforms, to a very large extent, ignore
or gloss over the political questions of real
importance and interests, and are a mere
jumble of platitudes and rceanieMs phrases.
Let a rising politician say that his soul is his
own, -and to-expressepealteve-ideas rnasdireo
tion net authorized by the party formula of
belief, and forthwth he is ostracised, and
driven out as a dangerous man, (me who 'will
. make enemies. Is it any wonder that great
men, or even "big men," are.not reared
under a system which thus tends to the "sur-
vival of the uufittest ?"
• The News is uuneeessarily worried oyer
the absence el' what it calls "big men.'
,There are any number of young nen In
the political ranks to-Aax...,1-(wcnot
going to,say_tlierareenflued to ono aide
_et -polities) who will make just .as able
statesoien as any who occupy positions of
trust now. When the occasion calls for
good men to take their stand in the affairs
of life, then plenty of good men will be
Lound. The "iron -clad partyism of the
age," deplored by the News, has no exis.
tence, so far as it relates to the Liberal
party at any rate. Was not this shown,
when protectionist Liberals deserted their
party to support a protective policY. And
has, not the News repeatedly deplored the
" lack of harmony" that prevailed among
Liberals. And what was this lack of har-
mony, simply that men of independent
thought expressed their. convictions re-
gardless of their party allegiance. It is
not a fact in the Liberal.party at any rate,
that a politician may not express ideas,
contrary to the generally accepted belief
of' that party. :Take the question elf the
Senate, or that of Canadian Iedependence.
as an, ithistratiOn. The News knows per-
fectly well that opinion on these queetions
is divided, seine Liberals favor an elective
Senate, while others would 'abolish it ah
together; some Liberals are op'pbsed t�
Canadian independence. while oth.ers are
heart and soul in favor of it. But no
restriction is Placed upon those who take
either side of these questions. They are
at perfect liberty to 'discuss the matter
where, when and how they please. The
News is continually growling about'"our
system orlectiring representative men
being defective," and yet it suggests no
better. It begins to look as if there was
an editor. on the News who is troubled
with an attack of dyspepsia every other
qlay, and has the blues between times.

To read the 3Iail and other exponents
of Coneeryative policy, it might tie- sup-
pased that theeeieltedearest to the Reform
heart, next to the defeat of the Dominion
Government, is the failure of the Canadian
racific Railway. Now that. tlikt, great
undertaking -for great it is -is completed
and Sir John hb.0 traveled over the entire
line, ta,kieg all possible credit unto him.
3elf en route, the Conservative press teems
with praise of the road, with glorification
of the greet John A.,, and with denuncia-
tion of the Reform party for its coutse in
respect to the nativity. this is natural
enough, but it is done Lc create a false im-
pression throughout the country. The
Reform party has. not been areieetirerof
the road -hat; not been antagonistic to it
It has siraply felt that the policy adopte'd
by the Government in its dealings with
theSynd 'en te that ccestructed and is opera*
ing tbe line, was one fraught with danger
to tbe Dominion; was calculated to lead
to national bankruptcy, and was a direet
violatiq of the trust reposed by the people
in the Government. Feeling thus, the
lteform party protested,but in vain,against
the recklais and extravagant concessions
made by the Government of Sir John
Macdonald to the Syndicate. txtitordin
ary inducements offered at the outset to
, the Syndicate Were supplemented frono
" time to time by loans and privileges of

Canada have built the road awl handed
