Sir Wilfrid Laurier Is His Own
Man.
Speaking at Ottawa last week,
Sir Willi id Laurier declaret: that
the opposition to the Nlilitary
Service Act in the Province of
Quebec was the /result of a feeling
created by the Conservatives and
Nationalists. The Liberal chief
insisted that the French-Canadians,
if they had not been influenced by
the Nationalist propiganda,. would
Lave been eager to enlist under the
voluntary system.
"The Conservatives,", said Sir
''had started the National-
ist cry. They say I have formed
an alliance with Bourassa. How
proud they would be if they could
prove that I am as disloyal as they
are theimelves ! They , say I am
dominated byt Bourassa. I would
like to say that there is no man
alive who can dominate Laurier.
Mr. Bourassa is an able man. I
know all the harm he has done me
and all the good he has done the
Government, but he shall never
dominate Laurier. In fact, he was
opposed to our participation in the
war. 1, On the contrary, I want,
to win this war, and I appeal to
veryone to rise up and do their
duty. The war is the great issue
of the present titne. But I have
already stated my attitude on the
war, and I stand or fall for my
principles."
