EDITORIAL, PARAGRAPHS.
`The Liberals are boasting of their
-ability to keep the Union Jack flying
.over Parliament Hill,- but they evi,
dently object to helping to keep it
-flying over the pathless seas.
It must not be forgotten that the
`Laurier, who is now in favor of cepa-
ration from the Empire, is the same
Laurier who a few years ago preached
the Independence of Canada In the
Market Places pf Boston. "Like a ripe
fruit falling from the parent tree" was
bis description of the separation of
',Canada from the Motherland. Evi-
:dently Laurier thinks the fruit is now
ripe.
Borden Policy True Solution,
BENEFIT ALL CANADA.
-Creation of Great Shipbiillding In«
dustries would mean Demand for
Immense Variety of Manufactur-
ers Entering into Construction
and Equipment of Ships.
The Laurier proposal for a Canadian
navy would establish one shipbuilding
yard in Canada at enormous cost and
years would elapse before it would be
in operation.
Under the Borden policy, while the
three dreadnaughts will be built in
England, the Imperial Government
will, in the immediate future, give
Canadian builders the following Tor-
pedo boats, oil -tank steamers, torpedo
boat destroyers, submarines, gun-
boats, coaling ships, small cruisers and
ultimately large vessels.
Even from the view -point of dollars
and cents, the Borden policy is much
the better for Canada.
The Laurier policy, even if carried
on, would benefit only one centre.
BETTER EVERY WAY. •
The Borden policy would give em-
ployment to industries in St. John,
Halifax, Sydney, Glace Bay, Quebec,
Three . Rivers, Sorel, Montreal, Otta-
wa, Kingston, Peterborough, Lindsay,
Toronto, Hamilton, St. Catharines,
Galt, Brantford, Preston, Berlin, Col-
lingwood, Owen Sound, Midland, Lon-
don, Chatham, Sr. Thomas, as well as
Winnipeg and the Pacific coast cities,
and every other town in Canada.
There would be required electrical ap-
paratus, ropes,office fittings, cabin
furnishings, engines, large and small,
boilers, motor machines of various
kinds, anchors, hawsers and a thou-
sand and one other commodities which
enter into the construction and opera-
tion of vessels.
HELP ALL CANADA.
Under the Borden policy every. part
of Canada would feel the impulse.
Under the Borden policy, Canada
would gradually become a ship manu-
facturing 'centre second only to the
Motherland and, in a very short time,
would supply, not only her own share,
but much more than her own share in
the upbuilding of an Imperial -navy.
Under the Borden policy her skilled
mechanics would gradually be trained,
'an:d' "tlir"oii b `time, a `perfect 'staff of
officers, and skilled workmen would be
developed.
SYSTEMATIC TRAINING.
Under the Borden policy, the work-
men would be systematically trained
from the foundation of the industry
up, and the industry, in the training,
would be profitable to all classes in
Canada.
Canada should, at the outset, sup-
plement the Imperial contract price
by say twenty per cent. of the bonus
on all commodities supplied in this up -
building.
BRITISH CONNECTION VS.
SEPARATION.
The Real issue between the two
Parties on the Naval Question.
The question at issue in Parliament
is a clear and simple one. despite the
desperate efforts of the Liberals with
the help Of their rabid party news -
'papers to becloud it. It is Pimply
this : A continuation of British Connec,
tion or separation from tho Empire, The
Conservative party is once called upon.
to fight ,to retain British connection,
against the band of little Canadians,
led by that skilled opportunist Sir
Wilfrid Laurier, who desire to do no-
thing to maintain the effective naval
forces of the Empire. And the Con-
servative party as in the battle
against reciprocity in 1011 desire no
better fighting ground than that of
British, Connection versus Separa-
tion.
The deadlock in Parliament is caus-
ed solely by the vanity of Laurier
who still believes he is the man of
•destiny. He refuses to accept the
verdict of the people on Sept. 21, 1911,
a verdict which sounded the clarion
note of determination to remain a
component part of the British Em-
pire. In the reciprocity deal, Laurier
and his colleagues,connived with
President Taft to make • Canada an
adj diet of the United States. We
have the word of Taft that such was
hip understanding of the effect of the
reciprocity treaty. Now Laugier is at
liis old game again. Ile is aiming a
blow at a closer drawing together of
•Canada- and the Motherland by delib-
erately blocking the - Government
,measure to render effective aid to ii ng -
land --a Measure baled on the definite
taesuiranee of the British Admiralty
that what is proposed Is most deeir•
able.
Here are the very world of the Ad-
miralty memorandum on which the
Government's policy is based.
"The Prime Minister of the Do.
minion having enquired in what •
form any immediate aid that Ca-
nada Might give would be mo'bt
effective, we have no hesitation
in answering after a prolonged
consideration of ail the circum-
stances that It le desirable that
such ald should include the pro.
vision of a certain number of the
largest and strongest ships of war
which eclence can build or mobil
supply"."

knawo, far better than the Britioh
Admiralty and the Asquith Govern-
ment what is required, Surely a
more pitiable exhibition of pique and.
grotesque vanity was never displayed,
Laurier was soundly whipped at
the polls a year and a half ago. The
people then decided to stay British.
They will make known their senti-
ment in this respect once more when
called on and Laurier and his band of
Separatists will be driven from public
life. Let no one forget the issue at
stake in this struggle. These high
sounding words regarding the build-
ing of a Canadian navywhich the
Right Hon. Winston hurchill, the
First Lord of the Admiralty says
is impracticable, are mere expressions
of LIP -LOYALTY. ,The people have
not forgotten that when Laurier had
the chance to create a Canadian naval
service he allowed the opportunity to
die of neglect. This is thhe man who,
now the test has come, refuses to do
anything to help the Motherland,
and is making of Parliamentary in-
stitutions a by -word and disgrace.
The Conservative party welcomes
the tache df "British► QQgnection ver-
sus Separation and f ndepeildenGQ,"
The ties which hind Canada to the
Motherland cannot be broken by the
puny blows of a discredited band of
politicians, who are hungry to get
back to office. British sentiment in
this country is behind Premier Borden
and the Conservative party who have
made the first attempt to recognize in
a tangible way the debt that Canada
owes to the old land across the sea.
And that British sentiment will speak
in no uncertain tones when the op-
portunity comes.

Lower Wingham was again threat-
ened with a flood on Saturday last,
but owing to the cold change in the
weather, it was averted. The streets
of Lower Wingham were flooded and
some of the families left their homes.
An exceedingly large ice jam which
had , collected east of the C. P. R.
bridge, broke up Saturday evening
and floated down the river but could
not get through to Lower Wingham
owing to the river not being broken
up and is still lodged in the vicinity of
0. P. R. station. Woods' bridge in
Turnberry was swept away.
