Sir Robert Borden has issued two mani-
festors within a month. Would the vol-
untary system of recruiting have failed if
he had made as great an effort to rouse
the people to the filling of the ranks, in-
stead of telling Sir Sam Hughes to 'let up
on recruiting"?
H. F. Gadsby, who a few days ago had
nothirg but scorn and contempt for the
Unionists, has himself turned Unionist
overnight. Gadsby, of course, makes his
living ours( his writing, and the Union-
ists no doult "came across" in good style
in order to secure his services. It would
be interesting to know if his pay com es
out of the campaign fund raised by the
C. N. R. steal which he denounced so
vigorously a few weeks ago.

MR BOWMAN'S 191600RO.
---
Why should any elector in North Huron
cast a vote for Mr. Bowman in the face
of his record of the last six years?
Mr. Bosnian supported the Borden
Government slavishly through a term of
maladministration without parallel in the
history of Canada.
Mr. Bowman stood by and let the
grafters plunder the people unmercifully.
The country has rung 1with the story of
scandal after scandal -Allison. Garland.
Foster- so many scandals the people have
lost track of them all -and yet Mr. Bow-
man has not to his credit any single action
iofl of the public
---.---
If the Governmera ,has neglected any
means of preventing a fair expression of
the people's will at the ballot -boxes, short
of actually stuffing the said boxes. we
should like to know what it is. Firstar
\
effort to prevent an election at all. then a
partisan franchise act to ensure a, hand-
picked electorate., a aseasure to manipulate
the soldiers' vote, as attempt to control
the organir.ation of both political parties
and so get rid of any opposition at the
polls. and when this partially 1 ailed the
buying up of opponents with appoint-
ments, such as the lieutenant -governor-
ship of New Bruns% wk. We read ift the
daily papers that a committee of political
manipulators is engaged in parcelling out
the Parliamentary seats. so as to save the
people the trouble of electing their own
representatives! And all this in the name
of Patriotism!

measures for the relief of the people. o
combat the high cost of living he woul
not la-sitate. if other measures failed, to
commandeer all food factories.
The people demand that the Govern-
ment take action with regard to the pack-
ing houses. It is an outrage that Flavelle
et al. should be making millions in war-
time out of the food of the people. If
stiff taxation will not meet the case. by
all means let the Government take con-
trol of the packing houses.
The objection may be raised that public
°aeration would not be as efficient as pri-
vate management. But why could not
the staff of the William Davies Co. work
just as efficlentlylor thoGovernment as
for Sir Joseph Flavelle ? The Baronet
says he had almost entirely dissociated
himself from the management of the
Comoany, leaving it in the hands of a
capable staff. Why could not the Gov-
ernment do the same thing? The only
difierense would be that the profits -less
a reasonable compensation to the owners
-would go to the public treasury instead
of into private pockets.
Definite. speedy and drastic action is
demanded. If 'the pemle at Ottawa can

the goodwill of all parties and classes

present Government falls very far short of
the requirement. In fact, the chief effort
