Y (-41 IR CHARLES DAVIDSON'S en - Tel quirt'into Government war' purchases in the West have revealed much the same state of affairs as in the East. Pat- ronage rake-off for the friends of the Government and utter inefficiency on the part of men forced into respons- ible positions to please their political friends is thus being proved from the Atlantic to Vie Pacific. At Vancouver the Davidson Com- mission heard the evidence of men who sold horses to the Government buyers and who swore that they paid money to the Government inspector to ensure their horses being accepted. At Regina there was evidence of old and disabled horses sold at very high Scandals prices; horses that could never have passed proper inspection. It was also shown that the horses bought wer not branded as'the s * •e bought won oug t thus making snbstitution of cheape horses a wide open chance to anyon so inclined. At Winnipeg there w Much the same story. One of th best known horse dealers in Mani. toba swore that he had paid the Gov ernment veterinary inspector 55 head for every horse be passed, At 'Regina there was revealed a much more amazing case of graft and inemcioucy, It was proved that the Government had paid cash for sev eral large shipments of feed for the horses, and that the feed 'never was shipped. raked billet of lading forged by the man supposed to make the shipments, were accepted without question by ofneials appointed by the Government, and the accounts passed and. paid just as if the stay had been received. The extent to which the patronage middle -man system has been deliber- ately used in connection with nearly every detail of Government war' pur- chasing in Canada has proved too much even tor the atoutach of some of the most rabidly partisan Conser- vative newspapers. Thus it was only a short time ago that the Tory To- ronto Telegram declared "Orders for certain lines, of regimental supplies are said to be controlled by individ uals who demand a twenty-Ilve per cent. com nission front tho manufac- turers i.1 be creel* o r re far such supeliaa And a s 'i ,' ,rata pro- Ceede to met: " t, ere r:, ',m to the manufaeinr ars van can (steer the best is- Mere- ,1 "t, -n; )' tbe low- est sr li r 10 f' . 1,i +tore+ who e.(ri r ihr 1,i ' .` co',I'd-0: n.'rs to il. , t "e r peso the order?

Some weeks have passed since The Toronto Telegram made this demand for an official explana- tion, but to date the explanation has not appeared. Even in British Columbia, where it might have been expected that the Well-oiled McBride -Bordon provincial and federal machinery would be working without a hitch, there is heard the mournful howl that the legitimate contractor cannot get fair play in Government war orders. It was The Vietoria Colonist, one of the staunchest of the "old-line" Tory pa. pees, which a short time' ago com- plained "There is considerable dis- satisfaction in the Far West of Can- ada regarding the placing of orders for the purchase of materials for use in connection with the war," The Colonist proceeded to charge that discrimination was being shown in favor of the East, and demanded editorially that the Par West should be given representation on the Pur- chasing Committee. This is but fur- ther proof of what must be plain to everyone who has taken the trouble to look into the business at all. Government orders go by favor, with- out respect to the qualifications or business standing of the contractors seeking orders. it is not a ease of "What can you do?" but of "Who ;do you know?"

D. to wit, as chairman of the Provincial License Commission it does begin to look like a run on the Plavelle fam- ily. The Flavelle shoulders are broad and.they have four shoulders between them, ao they may be able to bear the load, but they are getting the Governments with which they mingle into lazy habits not to mention the fact that there are other men in the 1 party who are willing to take ' over I some of the chores, Meanwhile the two Lindsay phenomenons remain in favor as headliners and their special stunt be h - mi entitled- t g tle Res onsibi n e Government, A Sketch by the FIa- velle Brothers.
