OODERICR. THURtiDAY. OCT. 3. 19li;
SIR WILFRID LAURIER
AT CORNWALL.
Sir Wilfrid Laurier addressed a
meeting at Cornwall on Monday and
made a slashing attack on the Borden
Government's record of inaction since
assuming office • year ago. "They
Wive assembled day by day at the
Cabinet council board, but have not
yet been able to announce that it has
been posible ter them to come to-
gether on a permanent naval policy.
The trouble has been that seated with
the demon Nationalism is the demon
Jingoism, and the two demous have
been ruling the E st. They h
prevented the tiovesaenest coming
getter in practical action." Sir Si
frid spoke of the memorial. a copy
of which he bad received, asking
the leader of the Government to
consult with the leader of the Opposi-
tion with a view of making the uaval
policy unanimous, and he suggested
that it might be more to the purpose
to address the request to the two
warring factions in the Conservative
party, to Mr. Bourassa and Mr. Bor-
den. to Mr. Monk and Col. Hughes,
to the Nationalist and the imperialist
and urge them to come together on
a common platform.
The Liberal leader promised to dis-
cuss Mr. Borden's policy on its merits
whenever it should be announced,
and in the meantime he declared the
adherence of the Liberal party to 'the
policy of a Canadian navy, built in
Canada, equipped in Canada, manned
in Canada, under the control of the
Canadian Parliament and the Cana-
dian people. and ready. if Britain
should ever be on trial, to do its part
io the defence of the Motherland.
Leaving the naval question, Sir Wil-
frid c:dled attention to the difference
between Mr. Borden's preaching and
practice in dealing with bye elections.
There were several vacancies, the ma-
jority due to the appointment of mem-
bers to p sitioos. In Opposition Mr.
Borden had argued that bye -elections
should take place at the same time.
Why bad he not, then, brought on
the bye -election at Richelieu, Quebec,
with the bye -election in Macdonald.
Manitoba, particularly when he was
summoning Parliament in November?
'is it because the Government did not
want to discuss the naval question in
Macdonald and Richelieu at one and
the same time ?" Sir Wilfrid asked.
"There are difficulties in having one
policy for one part of the c matey and
another policy for another part of the
country."
Bir Wilfrid was accompanied at
Cornwall by Hon. Sydney Fisher,
Hou. Chas. Murphy and Hon. Mac-
kenzie King. The Liberal chief re-
ceived an enthusiastic welcome, and
the dominant note of the gathering,
MI indicated by [tie badges wort by
many present. was. "Canada is re-
turning to Laurier."
words° It would also show the
that tlaoada steeds behind the

[Would you kiadl bring the matter
before your aaou&I onsvention new io
session at Ottawa sod sacertain if the
manufacturers present are willieg to
join hands with the grain -growers In
this ureal Imperial scheme t "
The manufacturers lscei%ed this
message with A laugh, indicating the
degree of eeriousnees with which they
regard practical proposals for the pro-
motion of imperial unity. After-
wards the president of the Association
sent s message in reply, stating that
the attitude of the Association on the
British pretetence was os record ; that
adequate consideration of the grain -
growers' proposal was not possible in
the closing hours of the eon%entioo,
and that "if any organization or or-
ganizations representative of all pro-
ducer in both the Ravi and the middle
and farther West desire a conference On
any matter looking to the advance-
ment of Canada as a whole, or u an
integral part of the British gamier.
this Association will gladly co-
operate." Which means that the C.
M. A. dodges the point.
There has been a deliberate attempt
in this country to place the
protectionist propaganda or. a basis of
loyalty. This succeeds fairly well
when trade with a foreign nation is
in question ; but when the protected
interests declare that the bars must
be kept up against the manufacturers
of the Mother Country -our own kins-
folk and tellow-citizess of the Empire
-the pretence of loyalty is shown
to be but a mockery. The Grain -
growers' Guide deserves the thanks
of its constituency, and of Canadians
generally, for showing up the true in-
wardness of the protectionist attitude.
The Ottawa Citizen, a Coneertative
journal, commenting upon the grain -
growers' proposal says :
"The proposition made was entirely
reasonable. Already aeomieatpre0et-
once of one-third exists ; make this
one-half, and then by gradual stages
eliminate the tariff barrier altogether.
It was a fair otter, and one that runs
in the lines of strongest probability.
At present the cheers of Canada Are
for the navy. In the spirit of Imperial
union Canada will oontrihute her
wealth and even her life to maintain
the integrity of the Empire. It is
brave talk, to be followed a little later
by the concrete deed. But if duty
commands in the [natter of militarism;
why shun it when it presents itself
in the guise of trade? Why not show
the earnest purposefulness of Canada'•
spirit of loyalty by opening the trade
door to Great Britain without de-
manding that she pay a fee to enter ?
The Mother Country levies no tax on
Canadian goods. Money talks, they
say. and patriotism, too, in similar
speech."
A POSER FUR THE C. M. A.
The Canadian Manufacturers Asso-
ciation bas been clersrly "stumped"
by representative* of the Western
grain -growers. Inst week, while the
manutactureve were holding their an-
nual meeting at Ottawa, they received
