kind and sympathetic he was with.
like-minded people so long as he
needed them, during that period of
log -rolling and dickering and dealing,
to keep him in power in this house,
but the moment he did not need them
he scoldedthem most roundly. On
behalf of my friends to my left, I
wish to say that the campaign for the
United .Farmers of Ontario candidate
was conducted largely by the brilliant
and able lady who represents South-
east Grey in this house (Miss Mac-
phail), and they fought in, the open;
they said, the same thing in the coun-
try school house that they said at
Goderich and in the town of Wing-
ham. But not so with my 'friends op-
posite. The Minister of Railways
stands .up and characterizes` us as high
protectionists. I was branded as a
high protectionist in the campaign; I
am not. Some say, as the Globe says
that: "follow your convictions" is just
as good a slogan as "follow yeur
leader." There have been times when
I have not been able to follow my
political leader, and that time may
come again.
I wish. to say, sir, that in my riding,
owing to the high pressure salesman-
ship of cabinet ministers calling on all
local manufacturers with that blud-
geon called the Robb • budget, this
Liberal paper was able 'to say that
all the manufacturers and captains of
industry, regardless of their politics,
were behind the King adrninistration.
And .yet they hat ,their friends going.
in and out of the farmers' homes call-
ing ine a "high protectionist," and a
"friend of the manufacturer," and, as
[ say, the Liberal paper boldly stated
that all the' captains of industry of
Goderich were: supporting the King
administration. I think the time has
about 'conte when this advertising
agency will not be able to run with
the hare and bunt with the, hounds;
that they will not be able to pose as
protectionists in the towns and cities,
and then try to hold us up to ridicule
in ..the rural sections as high protec
tionists. I represent a ;farming con-
stittiency, and of 274 delegates at our
nominating convention Isuppose 240
were farmers. I was opposed by a
farmer, but tho farmers of the con-
stituency said they wouldtrust me to
present their in the house of
s case
commons. I believe that the manu-
facturer and the farrier are interde-
pendent, I believe that what is good,
for one will eventually be good for
the other; but let pie say, as I` have
said in North Huron, if there ever
comes a time when their interests
ten on the id of. the
clash, h I aur, e s e
farmers and the labouring men of my
riding'..
X was reading, Mr. Speaker, what
our Prime Minister said, that usually
those things were taken for granted,
but of course. they wtre gefts from
a benign government. Let me give
lr.is words;
rlstt fly things of 'this kind are
ILJ
taken for granted, and it is pleasant
therefore to have the government's
efforts appreciate ` as you here in
Gpderich have appreciated them,
Another gentleman who followed
the Prime Minister said:
,. If you expect the government to be.
sympathetic .with -you, you should
show your sympathy with them.
As the hon. member for Southeast
Grey (IVliss iMaephail) knows, it was
a joke throughout the riding as to
whether the Goderich harbour was to
receive one -quarter, one half, three-
quarters of a million, er a ;million a
year. Anyway, the people of Goderich
were canvassed from house to house
and told that industry would lag if
the Liberal candidate was not elected,
so much so that in .the town itself a
change of nine hundred votes was
made in favour of the Liberal candi-
date. So you cannot blame Goderich
for what the rest of the riding has
done. Everything you promised God-
erich, Goderich deserves. Goderich
harbour is the greatest receiving port
in the upper lakes. These figures,
taken from the records of the lake
shippers' clearance association, bear
out my statement that Goderich leads~
among upper lake. ports:

I` repeat, Mr. Speaker, Goderich
harbour is the greatest receiving port
in the upper lakes, It needs public
money spent upon it, no rnatter what
political party is in power. Every-
thing that these gentlemen promised
publicly, and everything' their cohorts.
promised in private canvassing is all
right; 1 have no objection to it. God-
erich needs to be dealt with liberally—
l find in the estimates they have al-
lotted us $9,000! Why, sir, they spent
more than that in one ward of my
riding. There isa revote of $66,000,
making with this' $9,000, as , total. of
$75,000. That $66,000 is what the gov-
ernment at another time told the peo-
ple of Goderich they were to get, but
they did not get it. But 1 know that
the Minister of Public Works (Mr.
Elliott) appreciates the position. I do
not believe that either in public or in
privater
ma he made any promise about
what the government would do about
Goderich harbour. But I do know
that hangerson, canvassers and other
cabinet ministers who had to make
good smiled and let it be known: that
money would be spent there in plen-
ty. Now we ask for Goderich harbour
an expenditure which its national
importance demands. We ask the
government to keep faith to honour
their campaign managers' pledges. I
am not speaking now unkindly of the
hon. member
o for North Bruce (Mr.
Malcolm). We are proud of the three
cabinet ministers from Western On-
tario. . Their constituencies all border
around mine, and they are all estim-
able . and capable gentlemen; we are
proud of them; they are the best risen
that could be found within the Liberal
ranks. But I cannot forbear a com-
parison of what is contained in the es-
timates for .public works in North
Bruce, Kincardine, where there is
nothing but a couple of fishing boats
and a few canoes—a passenger boat
or a•freight boat never enters the har-
bour except to bring in a little bit of,
coal—Kincardine got about $t6,000
last year• Port Bruce—1 do not know.
where it is, although I know every
foot. of North Bruce --got $I,o23.68,
Saugeen river, where they fish only
with : pole and line, got $8,994.48
Southampton -never a cargo went out
of there. since Adain was a boy—got
$4,999.21• Stokes bay --where a man
has a saw mill --got ' $3,950.60. I have
no complaints about, these expendi-
tures, but if the riding of North 13ruce.
is entitled to that am<,unt of money,
y,.
with no shipping whatever, what
should Goderich harbour receive?
Judging by what North Bruce got last
year and again this year, I may toll
my friends in confidence that it looks
like a general election. These expen-
ditures are a pretty good barometer.
Nov, Mr.
Speaker, I should like to
add a word about immigration, but as
the committee on agriculture and col-
onization will deal with that—and at
present rate of going it will be the•
hist couple of days of the session -I
had better not attempt to deal with
it. I have been attending the com-
mittee, and T may frankly.' say that:
no progress is being made,the work
is not being taken up seriously, aredil.
looks to me as though the govern-
ment was not very anxious that we
should reach an investigation of the
Immigration department. Immigra-
tion is a big problem that will take a
long time to consider,A good many
People will have to be called to give
evidence ,and therefore I think that a
more permanent committee would be
better able to 'deal with it.
We are told khatthere is a great
deal of prosperity throughout the
country, blit each member,; regardless
of politics, says it cannot befound in
his constituency. My hon, friend from
Temiscouata (Mr. Pouliot) said that
while in his riding the people are
equally as prosperous as hon, mem-
bers opposite would have us believe is
the case in the country generally, the
boys in his riding went to the United
States to rnalte money so they could
come back and pay off the mortgage
on the old man's house.
Mr, CASGRAIN: He said they
were not coming back'.
Mr. SPOTTON. We have also been
told that we are emigration agents for
the United. States, Now, Mr, Speak-
er, if I had a son twenty-one years
old,; fully equipped for life, and he
dame to me and, said: "Dad, all my
friends who have gone to the United
States have made good, and those who
have remained here are getting along
'indifferently with no bright prospects,'
I would be torn between my love for
British institutions and the mar-er'•il
welfare of my son. But why should
I? For I fancy that about the only
tune the Prime Minister of Canada
(Mr. Mackenzie King) ever went out
to seek a living he went to the United
States.

THE CRUELEST LOVE
ON EARTH
(By Dorothy Dix)
We are so, accustomed to think of
motherhood in terms of unselfishness
and self-sacrifice that we overlook
mother jealousy ---the most relentless
passion on easels
We have the mother's jealousy of
her zlaughters. She cannot endure; to
have her youth and fading charms
brought hi contrast with her ' Otis'
youth and :freshness, and so she keeps
them in the background as tench as
possible. They stay in the nursery
until old enough to be sent to board-
ing school.' Ori their return, .mother
monopolizes the conversation when
young men call, but rushes theminto
marriage quickly to get them out of
her way, When you see a shy, em-
barrassed .girl who sits in awkward.
silence, you will probably find she is
the victim of a jealous mother, who
couldn't bear that her daughter should
be admired; more than she was, so she
deliberately' killed their charms.
Acommoner form of .mother jeal-
ousy snakes a woman seek to keep her
children from having any affections or
interests Outside Herself. She wants t
to be all-in-all. to them,' and repre-
.
sents their fattier as a sort of ogre
who. inflicts punishment and withholds
the thing they desire until she weedles
it out of him. She :impresses on their
plastic minds that mother isalways
their friend and partisan, who stands
between them and their father's
wrath.
Many women try to'keep their chil-
dren from associating with other chil-
dren. They break up their little friend-
ships and cannot bear to think that
John and Mary prefer the society of
boys and girls of their' • own age, It is
mother jealousy that makes a woman
keep her children tied to her apron -
strings. Many a boy is kept at a poor
job in a little town or on a farm by
his mother's tears. Many a talented
girl has had to sacrifice her life's am-
bition because her mother wouldn't
let herleave home.
Sometimes her jealousy is an un-
reasoning 'madness that makes her
willing to sacrifice her children on
the altar of her own selfishness and
deprive them of what she has found
to be the best thing,in life—marriage.
She has had the interest of seeing
little minds unfolded and the delight
of the companionship of boys and
girls who brought light laughter into
her life, but if she can she prevents
her children from marrying.
Mother jealousy is at the bottom
of nearly; all of the "in-law" trouble.
There is nothing really' the matter
with the boy or girl John or Mary
has married. If left alone, they would
get along well enough together. It is
mother who tells John what a bad
housekeeper and extravagant wife he
has married, until he sees nothing but
her defects and they are in a perpet-
ual quarrel. It is mother who calls
Mary's attention to her husband's

shortcomings until She nags him a-
bout them„' so that he goes out to
seek' other interest. By the time mo-
ther's' jealousy has done its work, she
has broken;up a home and she has her

with her.
