Tri thvnl

and` :Workmen's • Compensation Aet
,
To me it was always the Welfare of
Canada: and the .Empire first ; the,
beet:inte'rests ,ef the luasse8.,lty most
progressive , 1111 straight forward
legislation.
„
always h'
ys 1 ad these have
I ideals bo -
lore me -and -conscientiously done my
hest to aehiuv'e them. ,
When the fate of the --Empire - and
of the civilized World hung in the
balance I felt and still feel, -;it was
no time for party affiliations to
donhi n• toone's actions. 'i
t a ons, Snail was
the situation f t 'the" u n
n z s zut ez of 1917.
The Consergativo :and Liberal Par -
;ties had not up to the formation of
the Union -Government done ,all they-
might
heymight have. to work in unity -in pro-
secpting;:the :war, and in many quar-
ters party fooling had gr wn bitter.
A change was absolutely necessary if
we hoped to give adequate, assist-
ance, It was finally decided to'.fornt-
a Linton . Government. Like many
others, I was anxious to see this ac-
complishod without friction and by
the united effort of all. 'parties; and
with a special desire that the Lib --
orals. should 'have a prominent place
in the nation's wetk. Unfortunately
for Liberalism aid the country the
parties did not fully unite, and,
with a large number of Liberals, I
found myself advocating a different
policy to that or our Leader. I had
for. forty years taken a somewhat
prominent part in the counsels of the
Lib"arat Party, and it was with deep
soriow and regret I found myself in
a position of opposition.
Believing as I Md that the inter-
ests of my,eountry were at stake, I
did not hesitate to follow ;,,he course
dictated by my conscience. In .doing
so I., knew it would •cause trottble for
use in the future and that I was to.
a certain extent taking iny political
life in my hands'. Subsequent ev-
ents showed than my surmise was
correct. The Executive of the Cen-
tro, Aurbn. Liberal Association in
February 1018, passed a resolution
of censure on my actions, and this
was followed by a similar motion
at the annual meeting hi May.
' I was also censured because.1 hacl
voted for the extension of the life
of the Legislature. I so voted be-
cause I did not think'it was in the
best interests or the country to'
bring en an election during the war.
'Before taking -bilis question. up in
the House, I had a meeting of the
Liberal opposition and was by their
unanimous voice• directed es to the
course to pursue. I suggested an
extension, and it was arranged for.
I am still of the opinion that the
course agreed to was ' correct. I
have no regrets nor apology to of-
ter, nor do,r desire to shirk re-
sponsibility for any actions,
I also, I believed, in exercising my
judgment in bout questions, was
acting strictly in accordance, with
the principles of true liberalism,
which means if . it means anything,
that a man has a right to exercise
This, opinion according to the dictates
of hisconscience, Our ancestors
fought and bled for this right. Why
theft should I have been found Ilult
with ? I thought, and still think, I
was unfairly dealt with and that in
passing said resolutions a true .prin-
cipleof liberalism had been departed
front and something akin to Pres-
sfanism resorted to. -
Under the circumstances, I could
ot see my way clear to again offer
yself as a: candidate tor re-election
a Party candidate. I, therefore,
t the solicitation of niftily friends
ho desired; to again see me in the
egfslattlre, decideil to run as an In-
epeedent Candidate untrammelled by
16 views of any political/party. If
eeted, I believe with my past ex-
°Henee I can be of more assistance

uesttons will bo dealt With in the

LATEST TYPE OF TOURIST CARS,
One of the Features in Canadian Nat -
tonal Railways' Daily Service Toronto
Winnipeg -Vancouver.
The Canadian National daily trans-
continental train, Toronto-W'innipeg-
k.a ncouver made its initiate trip from
Toronto, with one of the very latest
type of steel tourist cars as part of its'
equipment, the first of an order of
twenty such cars in whose construction
every point has been considered for
the safety and comfort` of passengers.
This modern type of tourist car, with
anti -telescopic device is of a similar de-
sign to the standard steeping coitelt, the
exception ()ding they are upholstered in
leather instead of plusb.
Electrically lighted throughout, all.'
berths, upper and lower, are provided
with berth lamps. A new feature for
this class of car is that lamps have been
installed under the seats in the aisles
of the cur, so that when the ceiling
lamps are turned out for the night light
may he provided under berth curtains,
a great convenience for passengers
when going through the car.
Phosphorous push buttons can be
readily seen in the dark, should the
-passenger require to switch an the light
or ring the bell, when the berth is in
darkness.
A safety feature introduced is a
device for holding down the upper.
berth which precludes any possibility
of the upper berth closing when in use.
Separate berth curtains are provided so
that passengers in the upper berths
will not disturb passengers in the lower
The kitchen has tri latest steel range
facilities for washing dishes, and lockers
enable passengers to store their food.
Lavatories have received special atten-
tion, and provide greater conveniences
than the older type. An electric
thermostatic heating control can be so
adjusted as to regulate the tempera-
ture of the car, thus preventing over-
heating,
Thus with the introduction of the
daily service of the Canadian National
lines between Toronto -Winnipeg- Van-
couver, , is the added convenience of
the wcry latest type of tourist cars for
second-class passengers who can en-
joy a transcontinental trip in every
comfort at minimum expense,

Canada's Victory Bonds knows that he can sell
them today for more than he paid for them,
Every one who bought Canada's Victory Bonds has
received 51/ per cent. interest per annum—paid twice a
year,
Over half a million Canadians who bought Canada's
Victory Bonds on the instalment plan saved money that
they would not otherwise have saved.
The guarantee back of Canada's Victory Bonds is ,
the same as the guarantee back of a One Dollar or a Two
Dollar bill. There is this difference, however, that you
get interest on the Victory Bonds and you don't on the
One or Two Dollar bill,
Canada's Victory Bonds will always be accepted as
security for a loan.
Banks are ready to loan money on Canada's Victory` '
Bonds,

Canada's Victory Bonds may be turned into cash at
any time.
There is no other way in which you can invest your
money with such absolute security—paying such a good
rate of interest.
