The choice was made by the U. F. 0. members - elect and defeated ca,hdidate,s Wednes- day afternoon and later endorsed by the Labor elenaent in the coalition, though the Labor men had no part in 'making the selection. • Mr. Drury was selected leader with- out a Vote, though twelve names were placed in nomination. Of the„tsvelve, 'eleven were farrnerS. Judging from the sentiment express- ed at the meeting there was 'a, close . run. for the leadership between several of the better known men, but finally all retired in favor of Mr. Drury. J. J. Morrison, the U. F. 0. secretary, had an exceptionally strong follovfing, but his personal -desire was to reinain at. his present post, where he believed she could better serve the interests of the farmers. ! , The electien of Mr. Drury as lead- er clears the way for the retiremefit . of the Hearst Government and the calling of a new Prime Minister to office. ". The' choice of Mr. Drury makes it necessary for the 1.T. F. 0. to find him a seat since the new leader was not a candidate in the recent election. This will he a simple 'matter, how- ever, and already two seats have , been offered liim, one- in south west- ern Ontario and the other in Centre Simcoe, the riding adjoining Mr. Drury's own bailiwick. Murdock, the U. F. 0. member -elect, has offer - 'ed to make way for the 'leader and it is probable that he will accept, ' E. C. Drury,, the leader -elect, is a farmer, with a real claim to the ' title, since he can trace his ancestry back through -a line of farmers for several generations. His great- grandfather emigrated to Canada - fro in Warwickshire one hundred years ago, and took up a holding of one hundred acres at Grown Hill. evhich remains the Drury hOmestead to this day. "E. C." was born at • Crown Hill forty-one Years ago, the son of Charles Drury, who at one time was Minister of Agriculture for 'Ontario, having preceded the Hone John Dryden in that office. He spent his boyhood in Sirricoe County, having been educated at the Public . school at 'Grown Hill!. later at the Collegiate Institute at Barrie, and still later at the Ontario Agriculs tural College, Guelph. He gradu- ated vsith the class of 1900. Mr. Drury first became prominent as a farmer in 1905, when he rep- resented the Farriers' Association Of -Ontario in, theheareceedings before. the Laurier Tariff Cornniission. He became master of the Dominion Grange, and in 1910 attended the meeting at which the Canadian Coun- cil of Agriculture was formed, be - 'coming its •first seeretary. He was a strong advocate of reciprocity and took a prominent part in the cam- . paign that ended in the defeat of the Laurier Government Mr. Drury's connection with the U. F. 0. dates to the beginning of that organization, sitice he was one of the small group of men who brought it into being. He has been an energetic supporter of the farmers' movement at all times.- . Mr. Drury ran for the House of Com. mons as an Independent Liberal in 1917, but was overwhelmed in the ava- lanche of votes that put the present Union Government into power, . - . _ ,, THE ELEVENTH IIOUR . Ottawa, Oct. 30. -The last days of Parliament are clouded by •a great sorrow. Its srftrtd is not on its work= that isito say that half and more which 'sits oral the Government side of the/ :House.1 The Opposition is cheerful enough,r and Mr. Crearer's little band is joyoliiily confident, but for the Unionist party -that cold abstraction which has 710 existence whatever out- side the House of Commons -the election in Ontario is big with fate. Mr. Rowell's joy is far from being unalloyed. True prohibition carried by -a :to a long way short of the three-fifths which good Ontario com- mon sense insisted should be behind the local option. law -and is therefore no great thing to crow about -but it is doubtful whether the Ontario Leg- islature will reckon it a sufficient maadate to apply for further restric- tions on the im lorfation and manu- facture. :Dispa-sionate critics look upon tl-e vote as I sort of as -you -were minus the order-:a-ceuncil which pre- vented the. priya-a censumer shipping it in leen: Mcrtreal.

It is likely that from now on the Dominion Graernment will adopt a policy of let -well -enough -alone to - Ward the liquoraluestion which means that /Mr. Roiwill's infinence is pro- portionately cartailed. Another razorsedgea feature of the referendum vote is that the prohie bitionists are party men first and pro- hibitionists afterwards and this causes politicians to ' wonder if it is good business to go out of their way to selease- them. The Particular lessoh 'to Mr. Rowell, as it ha* also been; to ' ; • „ esee eee-eer'es"''''`ee e se' lieleeet---""-- . IRE IVOR' ON EXPOSITOR 4 „ OCTOT$Eli SI, 1919 Sir. William Hearst, is that a great cause does riot make up for personal unpopularity. Mr. RowelPs experi- ence is .that people suspect a politician. who, hitches his eareer to.- the water - wagon -they apprehend that he has ulterior motivps, that he is six ter 'prohibition We will say, and aoidozen for himself. .4.t all . events 'Ontario told- Mr. Rowell in 1914 that it was unwilling to have him and prohibi, tion together. It told him practically the same thing in 1917 when the Hon. Frank Cochrane interviewed some twenty 'constituencies before he ceuld 'get' home for It. -And last week Ohtario said the same thing; to Sir William Hearst. it's :words were short and Sharp. "We take prohibition but we don't take you or your Government." To some extent it was the] Conservative :partYs. re- venge on a tleader who let. Mr. Rowell run his mind,, and to. some :extent a rebuke to a Mr. Facing -Both -Ways. Be that as it may the Ontario elet- tion is no great source of satisfaction to Upion Government and its sup- porters at Ottawa. Indeed the blam- ed thing may be said to have cast a deep gloom over No. .1, which even Premier -Borden's promise that there will be at least two more sessiens fails t� ispI. . The feeling is' all too strong that Ontario is the measure, of what will happen to Union Govern- ment when. the cold world and Bob Rogers get a chance to pounce on it. They do say .that when Premier -Borden heard the news at Virginia Hot Springs he swallowed enough sulphur water to Start a small well of his own and inmeediately called to. Sir George Perley; "Come back at once. I want that job myself." This, together -with the fact that Sir Robert is selling his house in QUO/a gives rise to the Story that Premier Borden is .shaping up to make his get -away. Mr. Crearer is authority for, the • stateinent that there is an excellent prospect for a third Or farmers' party in the next Parliament. • There have been as we all know, farmers' parties in the House before and there prob- ably Will be- farmers'. parties again. Judging from the Vast a farmers' party is good for one election after which it is absorbed into- the ample bosom of the gdod old party whese opinions reseinble it most. -The trouble -with 'farmers' parties is that they are not bold and that when they get to the House of Fine Talk they melt into its larger vociferousness, say nothing at all or say it badly: I cannot testify that the Western fe.riaers who were sent to Ottawa to .speak up for their interests have either talked or voted like men who had ideas of their Own. 1 except, of course, a: Paladin of debate like Dr. Michael Clark, also M. Crearer and his Wee Frees but instead of that they have •made a poor showing. In some -cases - they have done worse. What did the English language, for, .example. do to Mahatg that he should marder it so cruelly whenever he gets hipateviiieh is seldom enough. - More- over they have sat murnchance under every -assault on their principles, and have received in return for their corn- plaisance,a mess of pottage -Lan extra session a-nd the Governmeht's promise that it will nottake a chance until 1921, A. D. What farmers' party we have in. the House now is a sad warring to other farmerepartiee here arid else- wheae to come to --their duties well equippeS with rhetoric, a sound Imow- lege of English grammar and a stiff hackbohe. Principles alone' will not carry tliern through. It is likewise worth noting that principles led, only twelve of them in Mr. Crearer's direc- tion when that valiant gentleman, cheerfully surrendering seven thous- and dollars a year asked them to follow him, not right out of their jobs, but merely. to middle ground where they would continue to draw their sessional indemnities. Practical politicians are asking what .eedethere .is of Mr. Crearer's third party to meet the same fate as the Patrons of Industry And the Grange, when the latest Liberal platform con- tains all the reforms that the most advanced farmer. can demand -and then some. If these principles are isincere and. if the Liberal party in- tends to work at them the there is about as rtelleil use for a fanners' party. in the House of Commons as a dog has for two tails. If the Liberal party is a real Liberal party and is willing to behave accordingly it will swallow - a -farmers' party in thet good old - geometrical principle that the whole is greater than any ofits parts. It is true that a farmer's party mijht hold the balance of power in Par- liament but it Would be a balance more norninal than actual because in every crisis it would naturally have recourse. to the Liberal party as to logical reinforcenient to achieve its ends. • . The farmers have a numerical super- ority in. the Ontario Legislature but not enough to, form a Government or put anything over without making alliances. A partnership of U. F. 0. and Labor would be/a partnership of cat and dog, not to mention the fact that it would fall two short of a bare majority, and a partnership of U. F. 0, and Conservatives would be against nature. It looks as if the only way out is a partnership of U. F. O. and Liberal and this, with all its direful implications, is what ° is throwing Union Government at Ottawa into a cold sweat right now. - ful servant of tie Lbrd during your mhilstry of sixteen year for and with us; ever mindful of the interests Of Him, whose ambassador you are and of the charge cdnunitte to you in trust.
