Ca fgdgratloii of the 1 aoytneos : o Canada. ti 11v a Re ac 1 0 Olnellt 15 iA That was ugh ou C n. t was bratt,ht ab t by a Bilk statesmen in 1807, an outstamlin event in the history. of •C•anada, • v s l But foil to aircturistltnceh of ieli B it o 11 . ;�, present Chile no doubt Canada would be making some, effort to do, sorne- tbin to fittingly celebrate the event. g 3 Butthethe co - 1 t as it is mind, of 1 un. try,ist taken toomuch i enwitha v f cl up th to grim fact of the weir and the best method of conducting this na lob's part in it to waste muoh eeorgy in planning. or carrying out celebra- tions, • In various places on Monday, which will he observed as the holidlay, tiro usual sports will be held and sono - thing of • a .special feature will - be hi. :broduood ,into the celebrations but the- great Majority of the thinking people aro concerned not, so muoh with the thought of the welding of Canada into a Dominion fifty! • yaears • ago, as with the more vital ques- tion . of Trow to keep 'the• people of • the Dominion united today in an. effort to do their share 'in bringing to a successful termination the gigan- tic struggle which has threatened not only'the freedom and unity of Canada but the unity of the Empire .as well, Fifty years Canadian states- men • t - y . ago a to es men came together in a coalition for the .,purpose of bringing the Prov- tl-duces tAgether, Then as now party- iam was strong in Canada. The leaders of the two great parties did .not love each ether any more ar- dently, perhaps, than at' presont, but for the, sake of the oountry they formed' themselves into a• anion government and the - Dominion of Canada. was brought. into being. •The record of the past fifty years leas amply justified the men who had foresight enough to sea that the .formation of the federated provinces would lift Canada into nationhood .and wlio had the courage and inia- tive to bring it about. Sir John A. Macdonald, Sir George E. Cartier, Hon. George Brown, Sir Charles Tupper, D'Arcy McGee are among the names of those of whom we think'when we .try to recall the fasts '•surrounding Confederation. There are others, of course, perhaps .not quite,so outstanding, but whose work' was none the Less important. These men did lien` work and passed on. The Government is upon 'other shoulders today and the prob- lems of the presont are not less real nor difficult than those which •,confrrated• .the statesmen Qf fifty 1 mars ago. Anid we, who love Canada, :who wish to see her keep her place, -mot- only that, but to make for her- self a still more honorable place in the Empire, would have bean glad at :this dime if our leading statesmen ;had seen 'their way clear to unite in •rappling With the problems • which vconfront us as a people. But even though we cannot have a union of the leaders lye may have a union of the people. Let the people unite In an effort to reinforce our brave men at the front and to do ,our full share in the terrible strug- ,gie which has. been forced. upon us. In doing this we shall be adding an- other polished stone to the noble structure of our natlonhget.. There is really something rather pathetic in the way •. some Liberals •cleavelto their party leader, even though ho has, for the time being ;given over his leadership, of the party. A leading edits.;' .-9 in last week's issue of The Simcoe Reformer, whose editor is Hal B. Donly, a well-known and outspoken Liberal, gives one a remarkably clear 'insight •into the workings of the Liberal mind at the present time, The writer, who has all along fav- •ored conscription and also shouted aloud for: a coalition, expresses the .hope that •Lnglislr-speaking Liberals will support Sir Robert Borden's ,Conscription Bfll as the "immediate passing of the Con- scription Bill . is the only . way of keeping faith in our promises to, the Empire and our obliga- tions to our. sons brothers and friends who are fighting for us." He further goes on to say quite frankly. that not only for these rea- sons would he urge the passage of the bill but that "it is the only .party, strategy that contains any hope for the Liberals of Canada." "For the Liberal party at Ot- tawa to vote •solidly behind Sir Wilfrid Laurier .in this crisis and; aided bye the'Nationalists and Trench -Conservatives, force a general election will inevitably precipitate a schism that will destroy the party, , . In, the event of a general election in Canada on the single issue of conscription with Borden stand- ing, for it and opposed by a French -dominated, anti-Conscrip- •tion Liberal party, Liberal news 'papers (enumerating several ,Which are in favor of conscrip- tion) much as they would regret being • forced to do so, would. stand bp oonseriptian and sup- port Our, soldiers."' Sir Wilfrid Laurier, it would 'ap- pear, is a good enouglrleatler pro- ividod the party is not going any- wliere in particular. While there . is .no vital issue at stake ; when skies are blue and winds are balmy Sir :Wilfrid is a fine, picturesque figure 60 follow. If there is nothing par- ticular to say he 'can be depended tut to say it in nicely rounded sen - tenses ,and high-soUncling eloquent phrases. But when winds 000 con- trary ; • when there is work to be done; when the country faces a crisis •sucll as it never faced before, why, Sir Robert Berke seems to be the safer leader. 13e !mows where he's going and brakes straight for the foal. Tiro great lnajori:ty of .Eng - i 1' dti g 0 lash -speaking leiberals and all the leading English Liberal 1lgll'spallers recognize this feet a11d •aro following Sir Robert, for,.' as the ,Mall aiid Empire remarks "The tWo parties •111 . Ontilrio, acid it .might be',said also 01 the West, ,are as nearly of the same Bald 011 the e Mind . subject Of 00138000- Hon as it is possible for two political parties to be," 'Dub while this is so, while the majority, of Liberals are in favor of eonseript bn and have been clamour- ing for it, they find it ,hard to for- give Sir Rort b..ooau a SirWilfrid refuses to have nnpthiitg to do With. it. Tlioy are glad, to follow tete lead of Sir Robert because- Sir Wilfrid gives no lead, but they cannot for- give lain for having been the cause of forcing Sir Wilfrid to show just where ire• stood. ' 'Flee Simeon Reformer has been aslcing for.i, conseriptiop measure and oleo. for a coalition but though .Sir 'Wilfrid refuses an offer to enter a coalition, on stieb generou's terms that no • fault eau be found with then, Tlie`"Eeformer "finds it in its heart to forgive him." All ,the in- dignation one would, expect to sei� levelled against a leader who utter- 1 'fails in time of stress is heap- ed ti p ed instead upon the head of the Premier. Upon the man Who was not afraid to grapple with a difficult sit- uation. It is a peculiar attitude, ono which eft is rather hard to under- stand. From the tone of the Liber-, al press it would seem that after the crisis is over and the skies are again blue and the winds fair, the Liberal leader will be brought for- ward once more and. restored to his rightful place,. Perhaps, -6yi that time, however, the icountrp will have come to the coneldsion that the man who can measure up to,, an emer- gency in times 0f trouble is the safest kind of a man to have at the head of affairs in- times' of peace as well, Coderich.
