Ottawa, Feb. 15 -The war has brought
not peace but a sword to Union Govern-
ment. This sword is Criticism. There
will be plenty of it this session. The geed
old huslehush-me-too days are over.
The signs of changed times are visible soars. Kansas & Texas Railroad,
everywhere at the capital. The khaki "Before my wife took Tanlac." cent•
has disappeared largely from the streets.
Most of the swivel -chair generals and
brigadiers have slumped back into
"civics." in which, truth to tell, they do
nut look nearly so imposing. The
Minister of Militia does nut stalk about
In uniform any longer. The tirld-
quarters staff has pac .ed its glory of
brass hat and red tabs in the old tin
box with the moth balls ani has become
a sober -hued citizen again. The captains
and the kings are departing as rapidly as
possible. The four -years war madness
is over and reason is about to resume her
sway.
Of course some ravages of war remain
-maimed men, a staggering natural
debt. a huge pension list, high taxes. the
forty•two and a half per cent. tariff, the
Wartime Elections Act, the press censor-
ship. various war boards and commissions,
and a raft of orders -in -Council which look
now like ugly warts on the fair face of
the British North America Act.
Certain of these distigurements are
bound to disappear quickly. The maimed
heroes, the national debt, the pension
list and the high taxes. se shah have
with us for years to come, but 1 mis
judge the temper of this House it it
doesn't make an early effort to scrap the
rest of the war machinery. Government
by order -in Council wanes. Parliament
waxes, -and bit by bit. and quickly at
that, we are to get our shattered con-
stitution back.
Parliament has long had a committee
on expiring laws. It never did anything.
Most of the laws that were due to expire
died a natural death and were buried
without certmony. This committee will
not be arrested for murder if 11 has all of
them on the head and puts them out of
misery. Nothing can be more ghastly
than an order -in -Council which hangs on
with the death rattle in its throat.
Now that the war is over the War-
time Elections Act looks like a bad
practical joke. The joke is on Union
Government, which expected to be elected which wants war profits to continue after

in such a bad condition that she could

"At the time she began taking Tanlac
she only weighed eighty-seven pounds

housework in four years. But she now

thirty-five pounds- and is as healthy and

Known from the head of Lake Superior

01 course all this is to say that party
spirit is reviving. One war is finished -
now let the other begin -the mtrry

back on his wall. What all the King's
horses and all the Kings men did was
simply to put him together again. The
partakers of Union Government may
have been educated to lofty heights of
brotherhood and loving -kindness. but
the people -never. They want their
quarrels back -that being about the
only way they can get a frank discus-
sion of public questions. This is what
Bob Rogers means when he says that
he will wait and see, what Sam Hughes
means when he breathes slaughter,
and what Dr. Michael Clark means
when he hints that l'mon- Govern-
ment is now "on its merits." Red
Michael was, above all, a Briton when
the trumpet sounded, but now he is a
free trader and a Liberal again ,and no
doubt intends to cut hoose. It bids fair
to be a long session with plenty of plain
talk from everybody concerned -a sort of
ammunition dump for the next general
election, which may be nearer than many
people surmise.
A heavy barrage fire will be directed
against the pre ss censorship, which has
outlived its usefulness.
Everybody in the House, except those
h I I del ted to U' G
op ess y a Ic noon overnmen ,
will take a shot at it. The press censor-
ship will doe of shell -shock or worse, and
when it crumples some of the worst of the
orders -in -Council will come clattering
dawn with it. The War Measures Act
may stand up for a while, but it will be
taking refuge in the reserve trenches.
Once the press censorship is destroyed,
free speech bobs up and the awned Union
Government fears most -open criticism -
hangs heavy over its head. My informa- r
tion is that the Ginger Group will be the 1
first to crowbar the lid and take this
good, old reliable Excelibur out of the
box where Colonel Chambers keeps it.
When this sword is again suspehded
from the ceiling of the green chamber,
the late lamented Damocles will have 1
nothing nn Union Government for ner-
vous anxiety. We can imagine them ex-
amining the suspensive thread every
day. expecting the knots they have tied
in 11 to strengthen the slender cord, ani
asking. while the cold sweat bedews their
manly prows "Well, how is the I.ttle old
sword this morning:'"
For example, Sir Therms White will
look closely at the knot which stands for
a fortytwo and a half per cent. tariff.
How long will it stay tied? Will it fray
through'? Will the Western Unionists
spill the beans? The Western Unionists,
by the way, don't like their name. It
sounds like a certain American telegraph
company and what they really want from
now on is winless politics which will give
the farmer his full rights and reduce the
pull of the Canadian Manufacturers'
Association to a minimum. 1t is only a
question of time until lb' Western
Unionists get back to those peaceful align-
ments and freer trade ideas which they
intermitted while the war was being won.
If the Finance Minister desires the sword
to remain where it is he will =

Make The Returning Soldier Welcome
THIS is an important ,hour .fqr Canada. The
nation is entering on a new era. It is passing
from war to peace. Let us start this new era right.
There are thousands of soldiers returning from ove
seas. The Government is doing all in its power to
get these men back to civil life.
`4t is giving a War Service Gratuity --more than
any other nation -to keep the soldier going till -he
gets a job.
It gi s him a pension- -where his usefulness is
impaired bb his service.
It teaches a man a new trade when his service
unfits him for his former trade.
It gives him free medical treatment when ill-
ness recurs, and supplies free artificial limbs and
surgical appliances. •
It is bringing back 'to Canada at .the public
expense the soldiers' dependents now overseas.
But the Government, how-
ever willing, cannot provide
the pers.,nal touch needed in
this work of repatriation.
That must, be given by the
people themselves.
The men who went from
these parts to fight in Fland-
ers (reserve a real welcome
home -the hest we can give.
In most towns committees
of citizens have already been
organized to meet the soldiers
and their dependents at the
station, to provide hot meals,
supply automobiles, afford
temporary accommodat ion
when necessary.
In addition, many other
towns are organizing social
gatherings to give puic wel-
come to returned men after
they have been home s
few days.

exist, citizens should co-oper-

the citizens themselves should
help put the soldier in touch
with employment.

The fighting job is done. It
has cost many a heart -burn-
ing. But, it has been well
done. The least we can do
is to show our apprec=iation
in no uncertain manner.
Don't let the welcome die
away with the cheers.
