Cur esteemed coditemporary, the Lon- don 4 aver, sc:r plaices the following an- nouncement in au article upon Mr. Laurier and elle leadership of the Lib - ;gal opposition: - "He specially assigned to leading Liberals from the several provinces, the discussion of platters of public inn portanee, The experiment had an ad- nil•able cffeet. It has enabled the Lib- eral leader to conserve his health,which is none too strong, and it has developed the powers of his gifted. 1!cutenauts to such a du 'ie as to m:tlw a MAT keel impression on the house and on the country, It has shown that no matter how hard up the Conservatives aro for material from which to choose a leader when Sir John. Macdonald gives up,the Liberals have a host of able and elo• dluent statemen, any one of whom could safely be entrusted with the leadership of a party so well ofh °erect in every part of the Donminion " Corn in Egypt, surely! "A host of able and eloquent statesmen" Just imagine ono of the "detailed." becoming fader, with a table -napkin policy! Or another; advocating reduction of scul- lery' expenditure! Or a thud, ,scream - for reform in cab -hire, making it a pen. al offense for a Premier to drive to his office ! Or a fourth, delivering philip- pics against luncheons at the Privy Council office! Or a fifth, declaiming, sn a bulging mouthful of soprano a- gainst the reckless policy of carpeting the department of a Minister of the Crown! Ancl this is no fanciful picture of the ordinary run of debates conduct - cd by several of Mr. Laurier's"gifted lieutenants." However, perhaps time and opportunity will improve them, end they may realise that while advo- eating the saving of a few do]lars,hun- dre1s are being wasted in useless and =necessary controversy upon ques. Mons of no moment whatever. The •feature in the statement, of value, is, that Mr. Laurier,by this system,length- lened the sittings of Parliament just one month, Another feature is, that the true inwardness of "Liberal" ob- jections to Mr. Boake, become apparent, He did all the talking, and never gave the boys a chance to squeeze a word in edgewaY s! So, Mr. Blake talked him- self into the leadership, and forthwith talked himself out of it! Mr. Laurier, conversant with the secret motive, now Ratters his supporters, and gives them "special subjects" -uniting the. import- ant duty of pedagogue with that of party leader! Now, you galaxy of brilliant young lieutenants, don your :armour, and each session we will w el. conic the "able and eloquent states- men" -table napkins and all! THE BANDIT PRO G RJ JI MIE. Mr. Alercier':, bandit programme, is no more palatable to thinking Liberals than to thinking' Conservatives. The nauseous dose he offers in lieu of states- manship, the bold policy of plunder en- ltn.ciated, meets with rebuke all along -the line. No more healthy symptom has been observable in Canadian polit- ical life since Confederation, and it must be patent to every fair minded Observer, that the Quebec Premier has done more harm to his party by his re- cent banquet utterances than years of departmental and legislative industry can possibly counteract. The Globe deserves credit for outspoken criticism upon the preposed Provincial combina- tion. It says: "Tbe apppal to the Federal treasury is bad for the ppu ,lie morals and bad for the pablie spirit of'the community." 1Ve do not purpose to deal with the Globe's repudiation of Mr. Mercier's suggestions in a spirit of censorious criticism. It voices national sentiment, propounds constitutional precepts, and openly declares against encroachments x(pon the provisions of the British North America Act. The Montreal TVritnaess too, is no less candid, when saying: "if Mr.Mowathas not been convincer) by lilt. Mercier's rale since the conference, that shameless extravagance. bare -faced corrup- tion, and the purchase ofpnwer, from what- 41Ver quarter it can he obtained,are the main characteristics of the National regimeand that, therefore it would be useless ands even dangereu.; to rdiow of another demand for. better terms, he is not the honest and wiso administrator which wo have supposed 711m it Lie" Mr. Mowat cannot escape responsibil- ity for the aggressive action of Mr. Mercier. He knew his name, was a 'w;are of the bold effrontery of the Que tee Premier; vas" conversant with the fact that duringa'grave crisis in. Can- ada's history, Mr. Honore Mercier util- ized the eceasion to promote his politi- calfr . fortunes -and $tdCCeCd1,7�m , received congratulatory messages from the Premier of s. Ontario, who afterwards t 4 a in Conference with hitn, assisted in:acs- ib pting resolutions o p „ O1dIt r7ltS anta,y0ni9tie ttl na- tional autonomy, and 111 every respect appeared willing to act as sponsor to this extreordILI Id', product 01 deinag, Ogle science. Mr. Moll it 11a4 reNtied he could afford eo do so. Mr. Meeciol desires to proceed; he cannot afford to do otherwise ;.lie has excited the pas- Sions of the people; he has appealed to their cu'pid!ty, sliowlug thele the silver side of the shield; he has bound him- self !land and foot in a network of pro- mises, obligations, ostlers -in council, and the men who hold his acceptances, so to speak, will demand ilnllediato payment. Hence, it is reassuring to find a healthy public s,lntiulent rebel ling against Mr. ?,lereier's contemplat- ed invasion of the Federal Exchequer; reassuring, because proving that,. should the necessity arise, Canadians irrespective of partisan considerations, will uphold any Government ageinst the insidious Weenies of reckless politi- cal gamblers. The machinations of plausible tricksters, the intrigues of powerful demagogues, at all times prove disasterous to the ship of state, and the public man who, intent upon accomplishing his de,sigas or maintain - in„ • a position of prominence, permits personal ambition to mislead a nation, is as culpable and as crilnlnal as the wrecker who steals to the top of a cliff and places thereon a misleading Bang er signal. If Mr. Mercier bo not guilty of jeopardising the present and future prospects of the Province of Quebec, by what term could his conduet be char. aeterized? He is either playing the role of a demagogue or deliberately formulating the policy most likely to create discord, discontent and disap- pointment in ono province, that it may react upon those who are the guardians of Federal interests, In either case, he is committing an offence against the people of Canada, and more particular- ly articularly injuring the province now under his control. Mr. Mercier has always been a soldier of fortune, and the sud- den, as well as unexpected and unan- ticipated elevation he attained, warped his judgment and dwarfed every high- er intellectual faculty. Instead of striving to be a law -maker, he has de- cended to the unenviable.: level of law- breaker. Such a state of moral and political obliquity, presages trouble to himself and disaster to the Proyince. These are unwritten laws, compacts of honor between man and man, duties of statesmanship towards the common- wealth. These should be inviolably maintained, more particularly when crystalized into legislative enactments and made permanent by the sign-mau- ual of the Sovereign's represeiltatiye. Has Mr. Mercier acted up to this stand- ard ? Has he striven to elevate the tone of legislative action? Has he en- deavoured, by example, to create self- reliance in the rank and file of any particular class? Certainly not: on the contrary, his appeals to prejudice, his attacks upon every constitutional safeguard; his attempted innovations upon well-defined powers of the Feder- al authority -all tend to prove that the prosperity of the Province of Que- bec is regarded by him as of minor importance, in comparison with self- interest and self-aggrandizement. v.� BT.
