THE HURON EXPOSITOR
•.SEAFORTH, Friday, Sept. 10, 1920.
la 'thoroughly goed Job of reducing
British Liberalism to ae admiring
echo of re -action, and he bears, one
' believes, together with that of many
other gross sins against Liberalism's
nobleitt ideals, much responsibility for
thesignable part chosen by .Canadian
supporters of the "Win the War"
movement, -some of -idiom , descended -
to the squalid treachery of betraying
its venerable leader, m order to de-
feat hint_ on a question' that proved.
to be not even an honest issue. Never
in its history.had Canashant Liberalism
such an opportunity as that present-
ed to it in 1917, to justify its claim
to being the ehampioni of the cause
of the people, and to vindicate itself
as an agent of moderation, tolerance
mid good -will in a distracted world.
. The sordid story of its failure to
meet that opportunity is one of the
most disheartening in the recorded
annals of politics. . Out of it, horr-
ever, one figure emerges, steadfast,
noble and serene -the figure of re-
creant Canadian Liberalism's aged
chief. His part is like a light shin-
ing in a dark place, ands will be re-
membered always with reverent_
thankfulness by all who cherish Lib-
eralism. •
But he has passed -beyond "these
voices," and excepting in hisown old
French Province of Quebec, his party
is a shattered! remnant.. Will it re-
vive and grow strong enough to
carry itself, with its traditions, as a
living force, over int that new day,
which is upon us? Who knows?
This time of sterile disillusionment,
in which we find ourselves at present,
la only a sort of hiatus between. old
Iand the new which is to ,come. When
the new comes, we da not know what
there will be. All that we know
for a certainty, at the present time,
Itutelle"; that they, too, mean. to is, that the people are no longer "en
seek their place in the sun.
Under some form, Liberalism will
always survive, because it expresses
an attitude of mind toward 's one's
fellow -man, and in. the present pause
a tremendous obligation devolves up-
on Liberals, whether as individnals,
groups or. parties, to try to release
anew into the world the spirit of
these forces of healing and salvation,
in which Liberalism 'has alwaysbe-
lieved, and perhaps if "with all their
hearts" men and women of good -will
everywhere would apply themselves
to the task, the people, who must
work out their own salvation!, will be
able to eatabaish a new order, which
more nearly fulfills the ideal of the
love of one's neighbor; than that whieh
has just passed, after having drench-
ed the world in blood. and tears.
Humanity has to find. a new way,
or perish of the Hate and Greed,
•which have turned the continentof
Europe into a vast charfiel house; and
if humanity were what it appeared
to. be dlaring the war, the very best
thing it could do would be to perish,
and that quickly, before it devised
any newer, or more diabolical meth-
ods to slay youth and to fill the world
with woe and want and pestilence.
But yet one hopes, because poor, piti-
ful, desperately -wicked, humanity, in
spite of the horrors it has perpetrat-
ed in its adventure* on these roads
of time, has always sought and long-
ed after a city of God; it rhea always
cherished some sort of conception of:
a sweet and blessed country, and
perhaps out of it preeent horrible
suffering, and its complete disillusion -
menu with all that has ever been, it.
will attain to a perception of the
uttet imbecility and futility of Hate
and Greed, and maybe, at last, it will
voluntarily set itself to work on the
cultivation of that gracious tree,
whose Alla is for the healing of the
natione.-A Cana'ilian Woman.

contact with reality as. the possibility
of a visit from the _lost Inca of Peru)
that we were totally oblivious of the
-wily gentleman standing by watching
us "bite," until after the trap had
snapped, and we found ourselves com-
pletely in the hands of a well -organiz-
ed ring of "hard -faced business men,
-who for the most part had done very
well *by the war," and the very least
of whose pre -occupations were "our
poor boys -at -the -front,"
"How can the plain -people ever
judge?" they ask. "What lie* be-
hind the impassioned appeals of poli-
ticians? Forinerly, when we . were
not sure, we accepted the opinions of
some part of the; Press,or followed
the counsels of the pulpit; we believe
none of them any more."
The Toronto Globe finds itself for
some considerable. length of time past
shocked and distressed and deeply
-displeased that its! "Win -the -War"
proteges should have been so dis-
honest as to form a new party. And
to that waywardindiscretion, it is
-pleased to attribute all the reverses,
which the Goveenment,. or anything
connected with it, has met at the
hands of the people. The Toronto
Globe must know better; it 'must
know, uniesa it is more hopelessly out
of touch with public sentiment than
even the public suspects it of. being,
_that it was not because these
prodigies of patriotism, . for whom it
stood sponsor in 1917, were guilty of
the itnpropriety of having themselves
re -baptized without the "Wave" of
the Globe,.. that their name became
anathema to the Canadian people, but
because, as one thinks the Globe Very
well knows, these shrewd gentlemen,
with the active support of the To-
ronto Globe, were guilty of a par-
ticularly despicable and detestable
form of misrepresentation, by means
of which they made a dupe of the

which the Farmers' Party, Which new

returned to power, were quite suffici-
ent to inform any one who would .be
iniormed of the reason for the violent

the Gove*rnant, la se manywords
it was the callous- and demonstrated
dishonesty of the Military Service
Act, -a. piece of legislation which the
tTotonto Globe exalted to a place of
importance and sanctity, only second
to that occupied by the Tables of
the Law, onee delivered) on Mount
-Sinai.
To say that the formation of th-e
Unionist Party was . a very great
shock to the country is mere palaver.
The political events of 1917 made the
formation of a Unionist Party a fore-
gone conclusion, and long before its
formation took place, the Canadian
people had rsceived so many rude
"jolts" that they were quite imperi-
ous to a comparative trifle of that
kind. If the Toronto Globe could
honestly. admit what it was that
reall,y (lid shock the people, one might
_hope that the deadly atmosphere of
hyproerisee in which Canada's public
life has lived Rad moved and had its
heiee der:ne. tia- last three years, was

It seems extraordinary now, that the
idea didn't ever °mu- to anyone, least
of all to the Christian Church', to
agitate for the formation of "Restore -

'the Chureh did not agitate in that

look it in the face -that they were
no longer .fighting for any of the
ideals, to defend which they had been
,exhorted to fight, .but that they were
simply fighting for the prestige of
various astute "patriots," who, with
their masters, by. stimulating the
horrid lust of vengeance with all the
gigantic means- at their disposal,
were advancing their fortunes, public
and private, on the. lives of coniscript-
ed boys. It is the realization of that
hideous truth fairly burned into the
consciousinese of the people _every-

the indescribably dreadful place that
it is; and the. wonder is not that the.

home run he hit a grounder to first
