I say this, not in criticsm, but in faith, not because I wis1r0 find fault with the work done, but rather be- cause I feelthat in the treaty we have not yet achieved the zeal peace. to which our peoples were looking, and because I feel that the real work of making peace will only. begin'after this treaty has been signed,' and a definite halt has thereby been ealleda to the deatructive passions, that have - been desolating Europe for nearly five This treaty is &imply a liquidatl years, - of the war situation in the world. The promise of the new life, the victory of the great human ideals .for which the peoples have shed their blood and their triesure without stint, the ful- fillment of their aspiration p towards a new interne:U.0nel order and a fairer and better world are not written in -the treaty.. A new heart must be given, not only to our enemies, but also to as -a spirit .of pity, erierc‘Y, and forgiveness for the sins and wrong which we have, suffered A new spirit of generosity and humanity.- born in the hearts of the people in this great hour of common eufferingsand sorrow can alone heal the wounds whiclaheve been inflicted on the body of Christen- dom. And this new spirit among the peoples will be a solvent for: the problems whichstatesmen have found too, hard at the Conference. • There are, territorial settlements which in my humble judgment will need revision. There are guarantees, laid down which we all hope will soon be found out of harmony with tin: new peaceful temper and :unarmed state of our former enemies. There are punishments foreshadowed, over most of which a calmer mood rnay „yet prefer to pass. the sponge of oblivien. There are indemnities stipu- • lated which cannot be exacted without grave injury to the industrial revival of Europe( and which it will be in the interest of all to render more tolerable and moderate. The real peace of peoples _ought to follow to complete and amend the peace of the ,States- men. In this treaty, however, two achieve- orents of far-reaching importance for the world are definitely reeorded. One is the destruction of Prussian militar- ism; the other is the institution of the League .of Nations. Lam confident that ..the League of NetiOns will yet prove the' path of escape for Europe out of the ruiu brodght about by this `war. Hut the League as yet is only a forme It still requires the hquicken- ingt4life whiz c come only from the ective interest ' vitalizing contact of the peoples themselves. The new creative spiritwhich once mere is mov- ingaimong the peoples in their•anguish' must fill the inititution with. life and inspiration for the specific ideals born of this war, and so convert it into a real instrument of progress: In thet way the abolition of militarism, in. this treaty unfortunately waned to the enemy, may soon come as a blessing and relief to the Allied peoples as well, and the , eerny peoples skould at the earliest possible date join the League and be collaboration with the'Allied peoples learn to practice the great lesson of this war -that not in separ- ate . ambitions or selfish•domination, but in cornmou service for the great harden cause, lies the true path to national progress. This joint colla- boration is especially necessary to -.-day for the econstruction of a ruined and broken, world. The war, has resulted not. only, in the utter defeat of the enemy armlet, but, it has gone immeasurably farther. We witness the collepse of the whole political and economic fabric of Cen- tral and Eastern Europe. Unemploy- ment, starvation, anarchy, war, disease and despair .stalk through the land. Unless the victors can effectively ex- tend a helping hand to the defeated and broken peoples a large peat of •Earope, is threatened with exhaustion and decay. Russia has already walks ed_ into the night, and the risk that, th'esrest _may follow, is very graite in d eed. , • . . - i The effects of this disaster would not be confined to Central and Eastern Earope, for civilization is one body, ena we are all members of one an- other. .The supreme necessity is laid on ail to grapple with this situation. Alia in the jeint work of beneficence old feuds will tend to be forgotten,' and the roots of reconciliation among peoples 'il begin to grow again and ultimately 1ower filth active; fruitful and lastee peace. To, the peoples. of. the United States and the British Empire, who have been exceptionally blessed with the good things of life, I would make a special appeal. Let theni exert themselves to the utmost in this great -work of saving ' the Nvreckage of life end industry on the. Continent of Europe. They have:a-' great Million, and in fulfilling it they will he -as luck blessed- as bless- ing. All this ,is possible and, I hope, capable of accom.plishLente but only on two conditions. In the first place, the Gernians must convince our peoples Of their good faith, of their complete sincerity, through a real honest effort to fulfill their obligations under the teeaty to the extent of their ability. They will find the British People dis- posed to meet them half -way in their emexampled difficulties and peepleidr. ties. But any resort to subterfuges or underhanded means to defeAt or twade the peace treaty will only re- vive old suspieions, rouse anger, and prove fatal to good understanding. In the second place our Allied peoples 11111Bt remember that God gave them. overwkelraing victory, victory far be- . .

Nicol, of Listowel, conducted the worship in his acaustomed practical -way, with his modern interpretation of Scripture and strong application. In the evening Reveltr. Mclifillant.with his abounding enthusiasm for the praise service of the elearch, spoke of the work' of the , committee in the publication of the new hymn hook and of the principles which guided the cominittee in the choice of hymns, -viz., respect to the particalar genius of the Presbyterian chuith of the fathers who had made choke of the worship song -book of the Bible, and the desire to be in ac - exiled with the <lurch universal in the matter of praise. ., 1 Monday morning was; on et count of the absence of the staff, to be used for a ride in ,motors to -points a. interest, .but the gasoline, like the steff, failed to accbmodate the kind owners of cars and only, a few were able to see the beauties of Goderich arid vicinity. In the afternoon the talasSes began, but with an exception or two were taught ;by subetitutes. Bible study was taken by Rev. J. Hamiltim. Dr.. McMillan and his assistant, Miss Mc- Kenzie, of Leamingetion, were on hand and they made a great team in the leading of the stUdents in song,, and also in the suggestion of selections. frop!C the neve hymnal, not only for. present acquaintance but that the con- gregations at the homeof the stu- dents should be instructed and inspired to enter the great enterprise of learn- ing the new hymns, .the best first. In the lighter exercises of the school Miss McKenzie, sometimes with the help of a group of junior singers from the Knox church MissiOn Band, con- tributed greatly to the good feeling of the school.

Then 1V/is& Helen E. Smith, B. A., as an appointee of the W. M. S. of the Presbyterian church, made a plea for -leaders in. mission bands. For one's own . goad, as wela as for the training of the rising strength of the nation, at was necessary, she pointed out, that young people should take up this work and discover their hidden potentiality and that of the children. Rev. W. R. McIntosh, of London, is acting as -chairman 'f the- school and with his quips is continually provok- ing a smile and while keeping speekers in bounds finds roeni for a great Many happy and wise remarks. At each evening service the organist and choir of Knox church, contribute to the rendering a some of the finest df the new hymns, kvhile Dr. McMillan gives to the audience a shaft talk on the contents ofthe book, mentioning the verifies choiee hymns under the differ- ent sections. There is -also a special address On. SO/110 phase of the Forward Movement The first of these was given by Mr, Nicol, of -Lietoyeet ,The second address was given by Rev. D. C.

FARMERS AND POLITICS (By Economist in The Calgary Albertan.) , So the farmers are going into poli- tics? And this fact. is what makes - the old party , politician sit up and take notice. Politics it, the science of govern- ment in a civilized community. And, as • civilization develops becomes more and more important. Among. savages,government is a very sim- ple affair. ,But among a people pro- gressing in knowledge, science, in- vention and art, it becomes more and more importante-. And of the highest importance to -the ',humblest of so- ciety, as Well as to the, highest. Gov- -ernments-municipal, provineial and federal --cost us millions upon mil- • lions yearly. We go into ,a store and give a dollar for some sugar.We see what we .have got for our money? But what do, we get from govern- ments for the multi -millions we pay them? What? What? What? And again, what? This iS a nut for the professiopal politician to crack. It is "he" whet follows the trade of politics for the money he can get out of it. ,1•41=1•••••4410144•11, tit41 He gets the people's votes, :but what do the people themselves getout of it? The answer is very often -"dirt" -in the shape of wicked laws that rob the many to enrich a few. Peo- ple are "robbed by law," and politi- cians "make" the laws? The people are the victims. Those . who, ;labor most and produce Most wealth must - suffer the most -of course. Hence, farmers, as a class, feel themselves the victim; of injuatice, robbery and wrong, at the hands of the govern - Merit. They see that those who labor and produce wealth, are generally shy f money. That they are often obgd to borrow money, from. those who( labor not, and who men no money wha \ter. 4.0 • -0 r whole system of government is at denial of justice, a denial of human right against' property eights; an energy to libertyi equality and , fraternity.- Farmers ate labor- ers. They "labor" on their own land - for themselves. The product of their labor, wealth, they give for moiler. IISIeLean BrolerPtiblishers 41.50 a Year in Advance And the government robs then' the machinery of taxation. This truth, so tremendously important, is at last beginning to dawn uponethem Thousands do not yet see it, but enough do see it as to cause uneasi- ness to the politicians. Farmers "earn' or "make" any amount of monett out of the soil, but those who have money to loan out, to pull, interests, to fatten off the labors of, others, are not the farmer class. Hon. Mr. Marshall, rainister of ag- riculture, has said that there seems to be a "stigma" attached to ferm- Mg, thet he would like to remove. Of course there is a "stigma" attVeed to any busineas in which the wo-ez is heavy, dirty and hours long, and the bank account iight. We look up to doctors, lawyers, etc., *why -because they can get big money for very lit- tle labor. Lawyers„ often get $100 a day. Think of it. A hundred dollars worth of cattle or hogs or wheat or store goods for a few hours easy work. That is why parents went their children to go to school, get to be in the "professional" chits- to be somebody. A ditcher or,, sewer work- er, though his labor is the salvation of the health Of others, is not re- spected at all. Why? Because his work is hard and dirty and his pay is small compared to that of the -pro- fessional. A section hand on the railroad gets from three to four dollars a day of eight hours work, Howmuch a day for his labor, his labor alone, not counting "rent" for the use of his soil, or interest on his outfit - does a farmer get? Thousands could answer truly, "nothing," . less than nothing. A nminus quantity. This is what is "biting the farmers." The bite is sharper than a serpent's' tpoth, irn - Gov meet. • "produces, makes, brings forth or earns," no wealth at, all. No -a; thousand times-nol No! But it i goiteriiinizit: that dis; tributes dei -set -r -e -b -u -t -e -s the wealth that taboe produces, (Would to God that workera would learn the word. 4‘diatributes, how to spell, it, and what it means.) Labor Makes wealth, but /government "distributes", it. Farmers, all, who earn their own livings, by industry or hand or brain, can't repeat .that sentence too Often. Labor "makes" but „government "dis- tributes," and taxation IS the meo chine the government uses for taknjg multi -millions from those who Iabo to give to those who are rioh without labor of any kind. There is the,,, crime of all our governments.' That is the fact that is causing people of all elesies, to look with suspicion .on our public men. The tariff duty on imports is a a tasee. °tit , the esmeinge of tJiose' WIddlabor. In 1902 arinichaid Cartwright, speaking on tariff, said: "r can tax out of people, mighty millions a year, of which, the public treasury -will get only twenty mil -- lions and a few privileged pets of the government will get the other sixty millions" That statement from so high an authority on tariffs, should have caused a revolution years ago, but it didn't. People are learning' more about the tariff an the time, and the more they see of it, the more they see it is the most cunningly devised scheme of wholesale robbery. of the masses ever conceived by the human mind. Under the tariff tax, the poor man, absent from , home, hunting a job, while his wife- and seven child- ren were in the city, destitute. starv- ing -the case discovered by the Al- bertan a while ago pays for more taxes to the Ottawa government than does the multi-millionaireon his enormously valuable holdings. He pays from 20 to 50 per cent on all the food and clothing his family uses; but nothing is -paid on the holding worth a millioan acre. Unjust. taxation by ' our govern- ments, is- the secret tease. of the in- dustrial unrest and discontent all over Canada. When. people think out how taxing is done, and how it should he done, then it will be good- bye, a long farewell to the = robbery of the masses now going on. Truly does Prof. Ely, of the University of Wisconsin say: "Taxation may create monopolies, or it may prevent them; it may dif- fuse wealth, or it may concentrate it; it may. provoke liberty and equal- ity of righter or it may tend to the establishment of tyranny and des- potism; it may -be used to bring about reforms, �r -it may be so laid as to aggravate existing grievances and _foster hatred and dissension among classes; taxation may be so controlled by, the skilful band as to give free scope to every opportunity for the creation of wealth, or for the advancement of all 'true interests a states and cities, or it may be so shaped ° by economic ignoramuses as to place a dead weight on a com- munity. . It is the crime of our civilization that the taxing power has been al- most constantly in the hands ef "eeonomic ignoramuses," with the result that industry has 'been • -op- pressed, progress retarded, trernen- ddus inequality in the distribution of Wealth encouraged, and wholesale injustice perpetrated upon.. the peo- ple, e - HURON' NOTES Mary McQueen, of'Asherton; Wise became the wife of T.

This truth, so tremendously important, is at last beginning to dawn uponethem Thousands do not yet see it, but enough do see it as to cause uneasi- ness to the politicians. Farmers "earn' or "make" any amount of monett out of the soil, but those who have money to loan out, to pull, interests, to fatten off the labors of, others, are not the farmer class. Hon. Mr. Marshall, rainister of ag- riculture, has said that there seems to be a "stigma" attached to ferm- Mg, thet he would like to remove. Of course there is a "stigma" attVeed to any busineas in which the wo-ez is heavy, dirty and hours long, and the bank account iight. We look up to doctors, lawyers, etc., *why -because they can get big money for very lit- tle labor. Lawyers„ often get $100 a day. Think of it. A hundred dollars worth of cattle or hogs or wheat or store goods for a few hours easy work. That is why parents went their children to go to school, get to be in the "professional" chits- to be somebody. A ditcher or,, sewer work- er, though his labor is the salvation of the health Of others, is not re- spected at all. Why? Because his work is hard and dirty and his pay is small compared to that of the -pro- fessional. A section hand on the railroad gets from three to four dollars a day of eight hours work, Howmuch a day for his labor, his labor alone, not counting "rent" for the use of his soil, or interest on his outfit - does a farmer get? Thousands could answer truly, "nothing," . less than nothing. A nminus quantity. This is what is "biting the farmers." The bite is sharper than a serpent's' tpoth, irn - Gov meet. • "produces, makes, brings forth or earns," no wealth at, all. No -a; thousand times-nol No! But it i goiteriiinizit: that dis; tributes dei -set -r -e -b -u -t -e -s the wealth that taboe produces, (Would to God that workera would learn the word. 4‘diatributes, how to spell, it, and what it means.) Labor Makes wealth, but /government "distributes", it. Farmers, all, who earn their own livings, by industry or hand or brain, can't repeat .that sentence too Often. Labor "makes" but „government "dis- tributes," and taxation IS the meo chine the government uses for taknjg multi -millions from those who Iabo to give to those who are rioh without labor of any kind. There is the,,, crime of all our governments.' That is the fact that is causing people of all elesies, to look with suspicion .on our public men. The tariff duty on imports is a a tasee. °tit , the esmeinge of tJiose' WIddlabor. In 1902 arinichaid Cartwright, speaking on tariff, said: "r can tax out of people, mighty millions a year, of which, the public treasury -will get only twenty mil -- lions and a few privileged pets of the government will get the other sixty millions" That statement from so high an authority on tariffs, should have caused a revolution years ago, but it didn't. People are learning' more about the tariff an the time, and the more they see of it, the more they see it is the most cunningly devised scheme of wholesale robbery. of the masses ever conceived by the human mind. Under the tariff tax, the poor man, absent from , home, hunting a job, while his wife- and seven child- ren were in the city, destitute. starv- ing -the case discovered by the Al- bertan a while ago pays for more taxes to the Ottawa government than does the multi-millionaireon his enormously valuable holdings. He pays from 20 to 50 per cent on all the food and clothing his family uses; but nothing is -paid on the holding worth a millioan acre. Unjust. taxation by ' our govern- ments, is- the secret tease. of the in- dustrial unrest and discontent all over Canada. When. people think out how taxing is done, and how it should he done, then it will be good- bye, a long farewell to the = robbery of the masses now going on. Truly does Prof. Ely, of the University of Wisconsin say: "Taxation may create monopolies, or it may prevent them; it may dif- fuse wealth, or it may concentrate it; it may. provoke liberty and equal- ity of righter or it may tend to the establishment of tyranny and des- potism; it may -be used to bring about reforms, �r -it may be so laid as to aggravate existing grievances and _foster hatred and dissension among classes; taxation may be so controlled by, the skilful band as to give free scope to every opportunity for the creation of wealth, or for the advancement of all 'true interests a states and cities, or it may be so shaped ° by economic ignoramuses as to place a dead weight on a com- munity. . It is the crime of our civilization that the taxing power has been al- most constantly in the hands ef "eeonomic ignoramuses," with the result that industry has 'been • -op- pressed, progress retarded, trernen- ddus inequality in the distribution of Wealth encouraged, and wholesale injustice perpetrated upon.. the peo- ple, e - HURON' NOTES Mary McQueen, of'Asherton; Wise became the wife of T.
