EDITORIAL NOTES. t`
If those Conservative journal. that
call so loudly for a clean-up in Sea-
katchewao would demand anlovesti-
'ration of such things ss the Shell
Committee at Ottawa, their sincerit y
would not be so easily questioned.
It is said that the Runtime" found
but fourteen Armenians in Bizerum
out of 40,000. Surely this must be a
mlatake.—Hamilton Times.
Yes, it is strange bow the blood-
thirsty Turks camp to overlook those
fourteen.
Sir Sam Hughes is going off on a
two or three months' trip to Europe,
leaving military matters in Ceaed& io
good shape—so be says himself. The
recruiting leagues do not seem to be
quite so sure that everything is going
all right.
The Western contingents in the
Canadian troops must include a good
number of former real estate agents.
This may account for some of the
remarkable exploits of the Canadians:
a real estate agent has nerve enough
ILO charge anything.
According to official figures, the
population of British Colunibia has
been reduced nearly twenty-five per
asst. since the outbreak of the war,
The Coast Province up to the end of
last year had .out 240W soldiers to the
front, and about 75,1100 people had left
the Province for other reams*.
Doukbot.on are enlisting in the
('anadiao forces for active esrvice in
1 the war. These people, so much de -
speed and derided because of their
peculiar beliefs awl customs, will in
time become g.nnl Canadian citizens.
It was not l o be expected that they
would, or could, give up all their old
ways in a year to two.
As Mr. C. M. Bowman pointed out
in bis tiddlers in the Legi.l.ture,
Ontario's new Government House is
so huge an affair that only a man of
unlimited means can afford to occupy
it. Men like Sir John Macdooald, Sir
Oliver Mowat and Nit James Whitney,
were they now twin-. would not be
in • position to take the office of Lieu-
tenaut-Uovernor owing to the enor-
mous expense entailed in keeping up
the establishment. Over a million
dollars of the people's money has
already been went ori what Mr. Bow•
man termed "a piree of monumental
folly."
The Presbyterian bait some sensible
words (n the bilingual question. It
balievee that the wetter should be
approached in a spirit of goodwill nod
compromise. The present status of
the question is giving the mischievous
Nationalists just the opportunity they
wish to make trouble and cause dis-
sension, and "it 1" for us to see that
we leave no legitimate wecpoo in their
hands. It would be unfortunate that
our Fiends -peaking compatriots
should cherish the feeling that they
were unjustly or ungenerously treated,
even if there were no ground for the
feeling ; it would be more unfortunate
if the least ground were given." It is
in the spirit of these words that an
amicable and lasting settlement of the
vexed question will be found.
The Liberal party has lost a staunch
friend in the death of W. L Horton.
Mr. Horton followed political affairs
closely and viewed them in the prac-
tical fashion that was characteristic of
him. It was not unnatural that be
should have a deep interest in Liberal
politics. His father, the late Horace
Horton, was a Liberal member of the
House of Commons in the 70's, giving
up his seat eo that Sir Richard Cart-
wright night have a place in the
House, ■od Mrs. Horace Horton's
father, the late Robert Gibbons, Wee a
Liberal member of the Provincial
Legislature before his appointment as
sheriff of Huron. Mr. Horton's

Serious charges against the Shell
Committee were made in a speech by
Mr. F. 11. Carvell in the House of
Commons last week. Mr. Carvell did
not deal in generalities, but had facts
and figures to amazing detail, and the
Government cannot afford to ignore
his statements. He gave the portico.
tars of numerous contract* wbizh he
claimed were given to mushroom poli-
tical concerns, while legitimate manu-
facturers were ignored, and he stated
that contracts were given to United
States firms, thtougb one Col. J.
Waley Allison—said to be a friend of
Major -)General Sir Sam Hughes—and
large gums of money paid to these
concerns althcugh they bad not made
delivery of any completed shells.
Here is one statement from Mr. Car-
vell's speech : lu the spring of 1915,
as • result of negotiations carried on.
it is alleged, by Col. Allison, the Shell
Committee awarded two great con-
tract. for fore" to the American
Ammunition Co. and the Intel national
Arms oft Ammunition Co. of New
York. The order to the first company
was placed at $4.50 per fuse and to the
second at Ifrl, and the contracts aggre-
gated over :,000,000. The price"
were known to bexcessive, but were
given because the Ades were danger-
