how that the Senate, has a large
majority in accord with the Govern-
ment it would be only fair and right
to give a proportion of the new ap-
' pointments to Conservatives. The
G overnment might itself choose such
appointees or it might ask the leader
of the Opposition to nominate them.
It is as great a scandal to have the
Senate overwhelmingly Liberal se it
was in the old Conservative days to
have it overwbelmingly Tory. But
the beet reform of tits Senate would
be to put an end to it entirely. it in
melees now, and if it were made elec-
tive and put in a position to quarrel
with the Commons it would be worse
than useless.
The Parliament of Canada is net so
radical that it requires a check ; on
the contrary. Canadian legislators are
probably as conservative a body as
mold be found in any parliament any-
where. 1f it should be found that our
legislators, without the Senate to
keep them in bounds, were develop-
ing erratic tendencies, -the reTerendum
principle might be adopted in order to
give the people an opportunity of pro-
nouncine directly upon their actions.
This would be infinitely preferable to
Um double -chamber system, which
would inevitably tend to the paralysis
of Parliament.
This attempt ro thrust a useless "u"

i,'lite "OUR" OR "OR."
The battle of the "u" is still raging
at Toronto, with echoes throughout
the Province, and The Globe especial-
ly seems to be thoroughly angry over
the proposal to restore the ancient
way of spelling words with the "or"
termination. But there is little rea-
son for any display of temper over the
proposal. The "or" 'termination is
established id Canada, and all that the
Department of Education -can do br ro
give the teachers and pupils of the
public schools • little extra trouble in
teaching and learning it method of
spelling which will be observed prac-
tically nowhere but in the eehool
room.
There is absolutely nu good
reason for restoring the "u" u,
ch woods as honor, favor. harbor,
lor, etc. Those who talk about the
"q • Latin roots" evidently do nut
kno that the Isatin toot did not con-
tain ,a a "u," whieh was inie'rtetl in
the pr , of t.ranemiesio n through
French a to English. Many of the
words wb h it is proposed to change
did not co e from the Latin at all.
For instance, if we are to ohserye
"old" things i, spelling quite as *peel
- a claim can be es . hli,hed for "neigh-
bors" or "nighb . " am for "neigh.
hour," in piece of t Canadian form,

Before the Minister of Railways
even begins to censider the questilm
of surrendering the lotercolonial, he
should see whether he cannot make
the railway pay by the chief means
that would be adopted try a private
company --namely, by ioer•easirg its
business, and especially its freight
business.... It nutria not to take the
Minister of Railways and the Govern-
ment long to choose he) ween a et tong,
aggressive, popular• and t r u l y
national policy of this kind, and a
weak policy of surrender of letting
the Intercoleniial slide into the hands
of a private company. If the latter
choice were Londe, the Government
would have the mon ifl.'ation of seeing
the Imter•colonial made to pay by ex-
actly the same means as wand have
been adopted by itself.

In looking through our exchanger., we
fail lo find the ad. in many of them.
There is a reason .or thin and the newt-
on is, that local sentiment against the
liquor traffic seems to be strong
enough to intimidate the new.pape
men. On 1 he other hand we find not
only this advertisement in The (rli"bre.
but a number of other advertisements
emanating from the liquor party.
