' Linnet shoivedla zest in playing with

Moore her mother had never been the
least uneasy. For her girl had played
the game with' the fine reserve of a
gentlewoman, marring. her safety In
numbers and surrounding herself with
an aprn of untouchableness beautiful
to sole.
But Moore was different, Toward
him she glowed as a gem, a star—

silent, smiling 'happily or rousing to
hug her mother tight and whisper:
"Is there anything like. real love?"'
Mbore was only, rich enough to be a

An evidence of the popularity of the
Liberal policy of tariff for revenue and
tariff for the 'people 'rath'er than for
the special interetts, was given at Tor-
onto last week and again at Montreal.
At tie former place over eight' thou-
sand people et'owded into the Raving
Rink to hear Hon. W. L. Mackenzie
King, Leader of the Liberal Party, tell
of the sins of the Conservative Party
and what steps it proposed to take
them when it IS. returned to power 011
the coming election. The forces of
progress should get together before
the fight, instead of allowing the com-
mon High Protectionist enemy to
divide them. Mr. King urged his au-
dience amid cheers, and together they
should wage a winning battle against
the interests which now pull the strings
at Ottawa,
The Liberal Chieftain disposed of
Mr, Meighen's London challenge to
himself, The country had never doubt
ed where Mr. King stood in the matter
0f the 1919 Liberal Convention plat-
form, Those who had eyes or ears
mustknow what the Liberal Party
proposed to do when it was returned to
Power. The Prime Minister sought to
force the people of Canada to choose
between the extremes of High Pro-
tection and absolute Free Trade, know-
ing, but refusing to admit, that the
middle course of tariff for revenue was
the wisest of all,
Hon. W. S. Fielding, ioniser Liberal
Finance Minister, pointed out to the
Terento -.meeting, that tariff revision
was long overdue but that tariff revis-
ion must for safety be placed under
the care of a Liberal administration for
the safety of the country. The tariff
record of the Liberal party unde Sir
Wilfrid Laurier's Leadership stood out
as a beacon light to Canada's prosper-
ity, and the tariff policy of the Liberal
Party,had"not,changed. The Tories by
defeating reciprocity in 1911 had done
more to handicap Canada than they
believed possible, and now the hyphen-
ated, party. under. Mr, Meighen would
do similar harm if revision were left
-to them.

The Meighen Government's eon -
tempt' of the people's rights, as shown
by their usurpation of power untli,they
were foram/ to either go to the wall er
go to the country, was denounced by
both Mr. King and Mr. Pieiding, Pre-
mier Meighen had only decided on an
election whet! forced to do so by the
ownhyphenated weakness of his hyp partye ,
in the commons, and in -the country.
There had been absolutely no consulta-
tion of the people or of the people's
interests,
Both speakers, and Major J. E. L.
Streight, Liberal Candidate in West
York, told their audience that Conser-
vatives throughout the country were
freely predicting the downfal lof Mel-
ghenism and also admitting that all
they could hope for was a small group
following in tine House,

The Government organizers are now
making a desperate effort to get the
party machine functioning throughout
the Dominion so that when the test
comes the Meighen steam roller win be
able to crush things before it. But
throughout the entire Dominion the
Government's machine is rusty and
creaking for want of oil. Candidates
are hard to find and party workers
harder still, for outside of the Big In-
