THB eeveu Cabinet Minister. out of seven-
teen have been togged. The Borden
MISHITS Olt Government has been in office five
years and a-balf. It will presently be
seeking • year's extension. The idea
is that it will take another year to
knight the remaining members of the
Cabinet. One can hardly expect
knighthood to be in full flower for the
Borden Cabinet in less time than that.

Not only has the Itordep Govern-
ment .grabbed off tyles Thr 'ball the
Cabinet Ministers, lint also for four
members of Parliament. The motive
lrobably is to give Parliament a social
eaven by giving it eleven knights—a
sorbed eleven, so to speak. But by se-
-Anal figures it works out somewhat
lees than that. A social leaven of
eleven 'nights is just about one -
twentieth of the House of Commons
as it exists today. One -twentieth it
five per rent., which is the current
rate of hatetest on our domestic war
loans. The proportion is both touch-
ing and significant, if you look at ir. in
that light- But if you pause to reflect
that the proportion of knights in
Parliament, if the Borden Government
continues to have its way. may soon
he even ten or twenty per cent.. you
may Tii—lficltiftl'ff to ask what this
jewocratio country is coming to.
Let us Wil the names over and ap-
pend thereto the reason* and a com-
ment or •wo. Sir Robert Borden got
it becomes be was Premier of Canada,
but he hire long .go outgrown it. Sirs
are getting as common es soo.whalls in
this country. They're so common. in
fact, that we have stopped calling
them "Sir," and simply address them
as "You." One can't go out of doors
nowadays without' tripping over •
knight. They're under your feet most
of the time. Almost any citizen would
sooner have a ton of coal than s
knighthood. Sir Robert feels that
knigbtb'sods are getting cheap and
that is why he eetree to a peerage
and a law lordship in the Judicial
Committee of the Privy Council as •
suitable finish to his career.
As a matter of fact. all the big fel-
lows go after peerages nowadays,
leaving the knighthoods 11. judges,
Provincial Premiers, and other toads
who are only big officially. Thus Sir
Thomas Shaughnessy is now a baron,
and the latest honor list also shows Sir
Hugh Graham aa • baron. There is
also Sir Max Aitken, who may thank
his Canadian connresi n as 1 witness
that he is now Lord 'Beaverdent—or
sone such oaste as that. .What
he really ought to be calla(' is ii•rd
Merger. One never thinks of Max
Aitken as Lord B darn without
thinking of another Lord who i- gen-
erally in ida tasapb J. I uses... Lord
Help ass
This explains why Sir Robert Bor-
den has his rye on • peerage. If he
would be first among his equals be has
simply got to have it.. The spray, so
to speak, from the fountain of honor
must`hot rise higher than its source.
Bir Robert isn't foolish enough to go
on recon,mending peerages for every-
body else, and then forget himself.
Mr. J. W. Elavelle, chairman of the
Imperial Munitions Board, who has
long been known as the Napoleon
Bologna -parte of Canada, is the next
on the list for a peerage. It is under-
stood he will take the style of Lord
Bacon,* name which not only sym-
bolizes the greatness of his intellect
but aiao'ibe primeness of his chief
product. Mince it has been his custom
to order barons of beet about It is not
like) that they will ask him to be
anything less than a viscount. Pre-
redenee must be maintained. even in
the cold storage business.
Next to Sir Robert Bordet* comes
Sir George Perley. who id also looking
for a peerage, because he intends to
spend the remainder of his days in
England, where, no matter hbw much
money you have, you must he a Lord
and a lover of the Lords or you can't
go to heaven when you die. Sir George
Foster, our genital Trade Wind, is a
knight because he needs it. in hie busi-
ness of impressing foreign board. of
trade with the advieahtlity of ex-
changing Canadian snowballs for Aus-
tralian kangaroos and other bargains
of a eimiiar nature. Ae Sir George is
not a rich man and expecte to live in
Canada once this Government goes
Out and he doesn't have to associate
with it any more, he is probably con-
tent to remain a knit. He probably
took the title in self.defence.
Sir Sam Hughes cheriah.shis knight-
hood as about the only thing the
Borden novel -resent was willing to
\ leave him. They kept all hie policies,
as he poinu not, but they fired him.
llis successor, Sir Albert Edward
Kemp—atter whom, no doubt, the
late King Edward the Seventh was
flatbed —al o becomes a K. C. B., an
honor which he shares with 8ir Sam
and tbe greet Nelson. Sir Albert
Edward has an aide-de-camp to hand
him hisInvert and overcoat. lnet as
Sir Sam had, end in due time will he
made a Lieutenant -General so that
Sir Sant won't, have anything on him.
Sir Thomas White gets his title be-
cause he is the lest borrower we have
had since 'Confederation. He is the
man who pelt the "tic" in polities. Me
is a sort of reversed Midas—he lays
hands on the gold standard and it be-
comes paper. He will probably be
Lord before he dies—you can't teach
Tom anything—Lord Knows.
