RSTABLISSED 18V THE WINfitiAlll TIMES. E.R.S;LL1O'fiT.pnnw@HJitANUPrtOP1U TO I THURSDAY AUGUST 17. 1911. i EDITORIAL NOTES. The International Harvester Com- pany will expend from $300,000 to $400,000 in enlarging its plant at Hamilton. And yet some yeople tell us reciprocity will prevent United States manufacturers from establish- ing branches here. There is a shortage of 11,000 tons in the hay crop of the United States this year. At the same time the barns of Quebec are bursting to overflowing with the crop of last year and this year. How can it be proven that it would not be a good thing for the far- mers of Quebec to dispose of their sur- plus crop, as they could do if reciproci- ty were in effect? It is not necessary to go outside of the County of Oxford for examples of the benefits that will be derived from reciprocity. Take the case of Mr. R. A. Siples of Burgessville, who is a grain buyer in that district. Yester- day Mr. Siples shipped a car of wheat to New York and another to Boston. He paid a duty of ten cents a bushels and was then able to get a better mar- ket than he could in Canada. The tariff wall is a barrier between the Canadian producer and the American censumer. Canadians have it in their own hands to remove that barrier. - Woodstock Sentinel -Review. The Ottawa Free Press comments upon the fact that a spirit of optimism always prevails in every political party on the eve of political battle. It says in part: -"While this spirit of optim- ism is true of all political parties it is especially true of oppositions, and par- ticularly is it true of the Canadian Cori- servative party. Its leaders know that really they have no chance of defeating Laurier this time, but they recognize that it is a forlorn hope, that the spir- its of the followers in the country must be kept up, and so, until the votes are counted on election night, the claim will be made `We are going to win'. That is the optimism of the Opposition. The optimism of the Liberals, on -the other hand, takes the form of confid- ence in the cause and in the leader. They have their optimism by results in the past, and they are convinced that they will do so again; but because of that optimism there is no reason why any effort should be spared to make the victory as sweeping and conclusive as possible." Mr. Sifton and Mr. Bourassa are ap- parently two of a kind. They reached distinction by the shortest route and as allies and supporters of Sir Wilfrid Laurier, and then both, for reasons which have been inferred, not stated, turned on their leader The Prime Minister is a man of the type of Sir John Macdonald in many respects, but he is not like the old leader of the Con- servative party in one regard. He is most considerate of the men who have been associated with him politically. History shows what the chieftain did when Mr. Chapleau turned against him, and public opinion seemed to endorse his judgment. Sifton and Bourassa owe more than they will acknowledge to the Premier of Canada to -day. Both have professed an abiding friendship for the grand old man, and both are playing a cowardly part in aiming blows at him behind his back. They don't come out into the open, and they do not fight fairly. In order that the people may judge of the nature of their cause they should tell what is the matter with them, for there is a reason apart from any issue that has been stated. -King- ston Whig EAST HURON 1968.

Sir Wilfrid Laurier has been 39 years in Parliament. He first entered the Quebec Legislature in 1871, being re- turned from the constituency of Artha- basca. He was there re-elected in 1874. Three years later he entered the Cab- inet with the portfolio of Inland Rev- enue, but was defeated by a small ma- jority, upon presenting himself for re-election. Quebec East then return- ed him, This constituency has been Sir Wilfrid's ever since. Upon the successive retirements of Mr. McKenzie and Mr. Edward. Blake in 1887, our present Premier became leader of the Liberal, then the Opposi- tion party. When it came into power in 1896, he naturally became Prime Minister, which position he has so honorably held for such a long period. Sir Wilfrid Laurier was bort! on Nov. 20th, at St. Lin, in the county of Assomption. Here his father prac- ticed his presssion of land surveyor. His mother's maiden name was Mar- cello Martineau. Sir Wilfrid being the only child. She died soon after his birth. In 1868•the Premier was mar- ried to Miss Zoe Lafontaine of Mont- real. As a mantis the product of his educa- tion, let us consider what has aided in producing Sir Wilfrid Laurier. The motherless boy attended school in his native parish till the age of twelve. Ile was then sent to the Protestant School at New Glasgow for a year. Isere he imbibed the first draughts of his splendid broadmindedness. From this school he went L'Assornption Col- lege, remaining seven years. In 1881 ha matriculated into McGill and gradu- ted in law, being the valedictorian of his Class. No man in Canadian public life has received more attention at the hands of political enirninators. In forty years, however, n0 opponent has been se base es to utter a Slander which touched his personal honor, the purity of his private life, or the righteousness of his character, 60;000 FARM LABORERS WANTED 'FOR HARVESTING IN WESTERN CANADA $10 Trip Additional for Return on.
