IIAY 7ru.11)14 REVERENCE THE DEAD It is n shame, we nay, that we do' not reverence the dead more than we do. NVe speak of .r man as the father of the country and et the same time allow his grave to be overgrown with weeds. Is thio consistent We think not. The heathen, whom we have despised. set to en example in this regard. He built magnificent tombs for his dead audit was said by him that turn only lived a short time on earth hitt as he lived a long time in eternity, therefore he required a far better house after death than while alive. This was the cans0 of the Egyptian pyramids and obelisks. We are referring particularly to the Louth of Capt. and Dr. Dunlop on Saltford heights. They were among the piopeers of this country and it iv • sin to allow the grave of such men to be overgrown with weeds as it has been in pa -t years. A little attention .night make tbe spot a little mote picturesque and show that we, as a community, respect the men who did so muck for our cointry in ita early stages. MACKENZIE AND MANN -OR THE PEOPLE The third great feature of the present session of parliament is staged. First in iuiportance among the outstanding features of the session is tariff revi- sion in the interest of the government's political allies, and of the men who helped to pot it in power, on whose influence and campaign subscriptions depends primarily for another lease of power. The interests of the mases of producers and consumers were not considered. The second feature out- standing is the attack on the Liberal party, on the National Transcontinen- tal railway and on the Orand Trunk Pacific, through the report of Meier". Ontelia. and Staunton. In tont case the credit of the Grand Truck Pacific e nd of the read which the people own' was damaged a* well as the credit of Canada, by an unfair, untruthful and partizan report calcuiated to serve the political interests of the conservative party and to play the game of the Canadian Pacific railway. Now conies • third outetanding feature. The credit of the Canadian Northern Rail- way Co. and the pmAte therein of Air Willem Mackenzie and Sir Donald Mann are to be saved at the expens. of the people of Canada who are to pr.eUcally assume rewponsibi lty for all present and future obligations of the compart7Apay at6liaiildtfew id- the road hemmed Insolvent, though still leaving tbe promoters in control, with the opportunity to make further profits end retire from the enterpries at the most opportune Uwe with the profits already made and still to he made. The government's proposals for the 1146.000,000 bond guarantee to the C.N.R. were presented to the Conserv- ative caucus on Tuesday last. As soon M the teams were ensile known Mestere. R. H.

On the Liberal aide there wasaonth- or miscue on Thursday morning last in ALMOST wREckl etrikleg contrast to the mucus of Tuesday. it broke up, with cheers which .hoed through the corridors and which nerved due warning on 1h government of the oomiog spectaeula and bitter tight In the commons. Thi caucus was nomparatively abort. 1 was unanimous and it war enthusiastic There wise no objection to the princl pie of *grating to any legitimate proposal for the completion of the Canadian Northern 1'ranacontinenta system : but there was strong objection on to making Canada the junior part- ner nee of Mnrkenzie and Mann. bearing the burden of the credit of the whole undertaking without securing in re turn for that credit a strict account tag of what had been done with the two hundred millions odd of public money and credit already granted without securing ndequate contra and supervision of further expendl tura and without making sure that the beneficiaries of the rather public aid would be the people of Canada rather than the creditors of Macken- zie and Mann and the litters' own pocket e. The Borden government has looked atter the financial interests of the railway promoters, has rehabilitated tbeir credit and bas given them an opportunity to realize full profits on their present vested interests in a capital stuck of '00.000,000 in the road --said capital stock having cost no- thing but the expense of printing the certiticates. it t•emains for the Lib- eral party to look after the interests of the people of Canada who have already invested in cash and credit over >f`r10,11n0,000; who assume all the liability for pout and future obliga- tions entered Into by Mackenzie and -Mann ; and who want to know what they are going to get in return. The first step towelds clearing up the problem must he tbe obtaining of full ,and complete information, as to what are the actual conditions in re- gard to the road, what has been done with the public funds already invest- ed. what is the security to be given for the investment of further public funds and what is -the real meaning of the long and involved legal agreement entered lots by Premier Borden and Hoe. Arthur Meighen on behalf of the government with Mr. Z. A. Lash, the astute corporation lawyer, and Sir William Mackenzie. the astute financier. This agreement hits been swallowed summarily by the now docile followers of the government. at the crack of the patty whip. If it meso* whet the Liberals think it means. it will never go through the commons except under closure at the Instance of the government. There are puny who believe that when the clos- ure wait introduced, it was really in- tended by the government as a weapon to be %teed for securing money from parliament which the People's repre- a.- ntativea might he nnwillin,t to grant. The Mackenzie and Mann deal may help to reveal it* real purpose. • Restored to Health by Lydia ✓ E.
