The Huron Expositor, 1920-08-27, Page 5,
TO OUR SUBSCRIBERS:
On and after October 1st, the subscription price of:The
Expositor wilt be $2 instead of $1.50 as heretofore. The
reason for this is that during the past four years the
price of newsprint has increased over 200 per centand
is still on the increase. •Not only that,/ but the cost of
everything that goes into the make-up of a .newspaper
has increased considerably more than the increase of any
other line of business, until we are now forced either to
increase our price or suspend publication as some two
hundred other papers have done in the past two years -
We have been forced to take this step by stern neces-
sity and we rely upon the intelligence and fairness of
our subscribers to back us up and we believe they will
do it. The increased price is a very -titan thing to the
individual subscriber, amounting to scarcely a cent a
week, but this difference while insignificant to the indi-
vidual, in the aggregate, will make the difference to us
of enabling us to pay Our way and avoid -A heavy annual
loss. We are sure there are not many who would be
without their accustomed weekly paper for the sake of
about three-quarters of a cent a week. We give a larger
amount of original reading matter every week than any
other purely local paper in the Province and our aim -will
be to increase this.
For over fifty years The Expositor has striven to keep
in the very front ranks of local Ontario journalism, and
that it has been fairly successful is proven by the fact
that for long and ualtil to -day The Expositor enjoys one
of the largest -circulations of any purely local- paper in
the Province, and that notwithstanding the immense
immigration there has been from this county and adjoin-
ing ones to the Western Provinces and other parts. We
need scarcely say that our endeavor will be to retain The
Expositor in the same position and we rely upon the con-
sideration of our friends and subscribers to assist us.
They have never gone back on us once during the long
years of our association with them and we believe they
will not do so now.
Any subscription due before the 1st of October will
be at the old price, $1.50, but after that date the price
will invariably be $2 without respect of persons.

THE HURON EXPOSITOR
SEAFORTH, Friday, August 27, 1920
THE PREMIER AND HIS POLICY'
It is obvious that the "weapons in
the rhetorical armory of the Hon.
Arthur Meighen, the new Premier of
Cando., are of a very different calibre
from those which Sir Robert Borden
was wont to wield. The ex -Premier's
oratorical blunderbuss was provoca-
tive of mirth rather than of awe
among his political opponents. When-
ever he went gunning, it was a cer-
tainty that he either would hit the
wrong man or would hit himself. But
his successor, judging from his utter-
ances at Stirling, Ont., on Wednes-
day of last week, is a man of very
•different oratorical capacity. His
speech at Stirlihg was his first pub-
lic announcement since he assumed
the Premiership, and it certainly
showed that he is skilled in the art
of public speech. It was lucid, co-
herent and , closely reasoned. More-
over, it waS marked by an apposite-
ness and aptness of phrase which
certainly never distinguished. the
labored platform efforts of his pre-
decessor.
That, however, is all we can.. say
in praise of the speech in which Mr.
Meighen adumbrated the policy of his
Ministry. It is perfectly evident that,
following the example of Sir Robert
Borden, he intehrls .that, if he can
manage it, his Government shall post- ' But, if Mr. Meighen promistd no

to this discredited and usurping Min-
istry.
The Premier announced that it was
his intentionto strive with all his
power for "national unity, embracing
aware, we have been insistent in
season. and out of season in laying
emphasis on the self -same fact.
Union Government was elected for
the duration of the war. The war
won, it should have resolved itself in-
to its constituent elements and a
general election should have been held.
It is indisputable that not one elector
in a thousand ever dreamed for .an
instant that the victoty so ruthless-
ly snatched at the polis 'in December,
1917, would be used to perpetuate the
rule of wrong, for which Union Gov-
ernment was so notorious, for years
after .the cessation of the war. Union
Government, however, adopting an-
other name,, under which, neverthe-
less, it will still smell as evil in the
nostrils of the people, is to be main-
tained in office in order that, if pos-
sible, Mr. Meighen may regain for
the old-time Tory party and the old-
time Tory -policies some portion of
the Popularity which both have so
justly and so rightly forfeited.
And how does Mr. Meighen pro-
pose to set about regaining this lost
popularity? At the present moment,
the people of Canada are groaning
under the grievous and intolerable
burden of the inordinate cost of liv-
ing. Here, in this land of abundance
the "granary of the Empire," as it
has been called, our people are pay-
ing more for bread, more for meat,
vastly more for vegetables, than are
the people in Great Britain, which
country does not produce nearly
enough of food -stuffs to be self-sup-
porting. Clothes, boots, rents—near-
ly everything is dearer here than in
Great Britain. On every side and in
every way, the wretched Canadian
consumer is being bled white by those
who batten and fatten on him. Does
Mr. Meighen propose to lighten the
monstrous tariff burden beneath
which he staggers and under which
he can scarcely stand? Not by an
iota! In his view, this burden' is not
onerous or oppressive. A man who
can persuade himself of that will
persuade 'himself of anything. But
the 'sorely -burdened consumer who
has the best of all reasons for know-
ing where the shoe pinches, will, re-
quire some proof more substantial
than Mr. Meighen's mere ipse dixit
before he can be brought to believe
that his instinctive distrust and
loathing of the appalling tariff bur-
dens which are crushing him are
groundless.
T. a
all races, languages and creeds," to
fight with ell his energy for "national
solidarity," for "moderation of thought
and action." This is good hearing,
and these words are fair words:, But
if the Premier intends, to live up to
such high and higleetounding pledges,
-his future political course will have
to be shaped very differently from
his past. Of. all our public men,. few
have done 'more to render rational
unity difficult, or to impair national
solidarity; few have more conspicu-
ously lacked moderation both of
speech and action, than the envenom-
ed partisan who to -day eccupies the
office ‘7.f Prime Minister f Canada.
But when Mr. Meighen speaks of
the forces of destruction and disrup-
tion which '"wish to tear down the
structure of responsible government
and destioy the fabric of civilization
woven through centuries of toil and
care," we confess we are aghast at
his harihood and effrontery. No Gov-
ernment in'- this country has ever
struck such fell and foul blows at
responsible government as the Min-
istry of which Mr. Meighen was him-
self a leading member, and of which
he proudly proclaims his present ad-
ministrations to be the lineal succes-
sor. When he prates endearingly of
the "good old British institution's -and
British principles that have made us
what we are," let him bethink him-
self of - retent Casadian history in
which he himself has played a lead-
ing role. Union Government it was
that dealt the deadliest wound to our
Parliamentary institutions of Which
our history holds record. Union Gov -
eminent it was that violated, in the
most infamous manner possible,the
most cherished Of all the "British
principles that have made us whet
we are"—the principle of fair -play. ,
Shorn of its verbal brilliance, Mr.
Meighes's speech really resolved it-
self into an! appeal to.his hearers and
to the greater audience outside them,
to rally to the standard of before -the -
war Toryism, "As you were" is not
likely to prove very effective as a
clarion call! We can well understand
that, the forces of Privilege and
Plutocracy, to carry out whose bid -
dings and behests this, Government
has so long outstayed. its welcome.
will be graciously .pleased to regard
with favor a Premier who claims it
as "little short of madness to think
of separating from tried and proven
policies, which have successfully stood
the test of time." These "tried and
proven policies," that is to say, the
old 'order of tings, have be'en' vastly
less well for the uninfluential and
toiling inany. By announted adhesion
to them, Mr. Meighen may ,well get—
as why should he not?—the support
of the trusts and combine's and of
the big campaign' funds which the
gentry who Pun these things can so
well afford to put up. But there is
one thing—and not an malportant
one—that his fidelity to throld order
of things will certainly- not obtain
for him. And that is the vote§ of the
people at large.
Mr. Meighen's idea, seems to be
that to preserve the social fabric, as
it existed before the war, with all its
monstrous injustices and merciless
iniquities, ought to be an' ideal to be
regarded by the generality of right-
minded citizens as the acme and the
summit of all earthly bliss. Par
other is the viewpoint of the common
people. With bitter hostility (and
aversion Mr. Meighen, in true Tory
sort, talks of the unrest and discon-
tent prevalent in Canada to -day, and
to afar greater extent than. he, man
of little faith and even less vision
as he is, can probably realize, as
things to be fought and crushed. Let
him try—but it will be at his peril.
In that unrest and discontent are
embodied the troubled, eager, sang-
uine spirit of the age. For that unl
rest -is noble, and that discontentment
is half divine.—Statesman.

tending to enter 32 and 33 should se-
cure from the bank the necessary
form and have it filled out in 'good
time.—The Y. P. A. convention is

laws voted on in Exeter on Friday last
both carried by good majorities. The
by-law to provide the necessary
money to finish paying for the con-
struction of the Main Street cement
road- was carried by 130 majority.
The by-law authorizing the council
to raise $8,000 by debenture to put
down a cement road on Wellington
street from the Main street to the
G. T. R. depot was carried by 60
majority. The granting of the $8,000
was conditional on $4,000 extra be-
ing raised by interested parties. A
canvas by the promoters of the scheme
has -resulted in $900 being raised and
two hundred loads of gravel have been
proniised by farmers in the commun-
ity, About one thousand loads of
gravel will be needed and another
canvas is being made. Judging from
the ready response the promoters do
not expect great difficulty in secur-
ing the gravel which will be equiv-
alent to the $4,000 required by the
by-law. The work of preparing the
road for the laying of the cement has
already started.
