Coupled with this story was one shat
Mr. Borden's health was precarious.
Bath these reports were absolutely
without foundation, in fact and are
so ridiculous as to expose ha t-10-
tive,
The. Liberal press and the Liberal
leaders well know the strength o:
Mr Borden with the Canadian 1:: Joie
and it is impossible for ,heni to con
ceal their wish that somatniag migh
occur to bring about his retirement.
They: are doomed to disappointmani
'They know very well that so losig
:as Mr, Boeden retains his present
;popularity .and continues " to conduct
the affairs of the country in so states-
manlike- manner, the Liberal party
is doomed to wander in the , cool
shades of Opposition. ••
Mr Borden knows he is right, and
be knows that the people know he
is right.
The Liberal press is suggesting the
building of a new party platform,
Why not a lot of platforms, one for
each leader?

Bodies of Executed Federals Stripped
by Mexican Rebels.
EL PASO, Texas, Nov. 18. -Eleven
men are known to have been executed
in Juarez since Francisco Poncho
Villa and his rebel forces captured
the city on Saturday morning. The
rebel officials admit the execution of
that number. The bodies of most of
the victims are still unburied.
The body of Col. Enrique Portillo,
executed on Saturday, was brought to
El Paso for interment here yesterday:
It was divested of its trousers and
shoes by a rebel who was short of
clothing while <t lay in the military
barracks in Juarez.
All rebels are badly in. need of
clothing, and the distribution of cap-
tured federal
ap-turedfederal uniforms made by Villa
did not go around, so there has been
a scramble for the clothing of the
men executed.

THE SCOTT ACT 'WOULD NOT

MEN CANNOT BE MADE RIGHT•
EOUS BY LAW
Prohibition is a scheme to nake
men good by law. It cannot ne done
There never was a time when .t :paid
be, The Apostle Paul recognized this
fact nearly two thousand years :ago
when he said if men can be made
righteous by law then Christ is dead
in vain The proposition is pure
fantasy.. Neither temperance or vir-
tue is promoted by it. By invading
private rights it arouses human pas-
sion .Instead of reducing drunken-
nese it anultiplies' hypocrites and law-
breakers. It has no just recognition
or belonging in the economy of gov-
ernment or the autonomy of true
religion It is in its essence Ignor-
ant, tyrannous and dishonest.
Every real man believes in free-
dom and . the right to regulate his
own conduct, . Prohibition legislation
proceeds on the theory that l.hose
who patronize licensed hotels or take
a drink are weak or irresponsible ind
need a guardian. If you are to pass
such laws as to drink, where will it
stop' If you permit the Dominion
Alliance to • have their way in the
matter of what we drink, their next
step will be to tell,. us what we shall.
eat or ,stoke or wear. The principle
Is just the same. Our conception of
free Government is that men are as-
sumed to be responsible and are guar-
anteed •their freedom, until they abuse,
it. W e deny that the people of this
county, who stand for a decent hotel
have abused their, freedom to such
an extent that they must now be
placed in the custody of the Domin-
iot, Alliance or its agents.
In the matter of this guardianship
idea, we challenge the voters of this
county to take a look aroundthem
and consider the character of some
of the men .w;ho are; in a, self appoint-
ed way attempting to set ' themselves
up as their guardians. The besttest
