DAILY EDITION

THE OPPORTUNITY
MR. BORDEN LOST.
That no “emergency
as that talked of by Premier)
Borden is known to exist in|
England has time and again}
been demonstrated by Kt. Hon.
Winston Churehill, first lord
of the admiralty. This is
shown particularly in a speech
made by Mr. Churchill on May
16th last—seven months after
ihe Borden government had
been formed, and while the
British ministry were prepar-
ing to meet Mr. Borden and his
colleagues. It may therefore
fairly be assumed that the
speech was intended as a guide
to the Canadian ministers be-
fore they approached the Brit-
ish government.
Mr. Churchill said that he
intended this year to again ask
Parliament for additional men,

such

money and material for the
navy. He pointed out that
nowadays the Imperial tleet

must be kept concentrated in
the decisive theatres in Euro-
pean waters and that its gen-
eral mobility was reduced since
it could not move safely and
freely to every port of the
world to the same extent as in
former years. But Mr. Church-
ill declared that the duty of
protection of the colonies by
the despatch, if necessary, of
special squadrons from Great
Britain both could and would
be discharged without injury
to her home concentration.
Here, he said, was created
“the great opportunity for the
great self governing dominions
of the Empire. If the
main development of the last
ten years had been naval con-
centration in decisive theatres
it seems to me—and I dare
say to you—not unlikely that
the main development in the
next ten years will be the
growth of effective naval forces
in the great overseas domin-
ions.’ Thus we should have
as a true division of labor be-
tween the Mother Country and
her daughter states “that we
at home should maintain the
Empire's sea supremacy)
against all comers at the de-
cisive point and that the do-)
minions should guard and pa-|
trol the rest of the Empire.”
Further Mr. Churchill de-
clared that the admiralty saw
no reason why each Dominion
should not be given a_ full
measure of control over the
movement, in peace, of any
naval forces which, with
Britain's help, they might bring
into eflicient existence. The
important thing Was thate the
gap should be filled so that
while the Imperial navy guard-
ed the decisive centres “our
comrades and brothers across
the sea shall keep the flag

flying on the oceans of the
world.”
Mr. Churchill makes not the

slightest hint of any desire for
a cash contribution—any more
than Mr. Borden has made any
hint of “filling the gap” in the
manner suggested by the First
Lord of the Admiralty.

the laws of the country to keep
the Board
from being cut off from the
people. In British Columbia
not long ago a charter and a
subsidy were arranged by Sir
Richard McBride for a smal!
line of railroad, the terminals
of which were entirely within
the boundaries of British Co-
lumbia. In the agreement a
clause was inserted which pro-
vided that this read should be
forever ouside the jurisdiction
of the Dominion Board of Rail-
way Commissioners. This was

a most damgerous clause, and}

one of these fine days the
people of British Columbia,
and especially those who may
by that time be dependent up-
on this little railroad, will rise
up and revile the memory of

the politician who thus took
away their right to protect
themselves. Never was there

such a cougt as this itinerant
tribunal of Judge Drayton's.
Never was there a political in-
vention more effective in serv-
ing the interests of the whole
country. The railway com-
panies feel the curb which it
holds over them, and already
there have been flerce struggles
waged against some of the rul-

ings of that board, but most of
those struggles have been in
vain. Now, however, the rail-

roads are getting the habit of
appealing to the Governor
General in Council to overrule
the board—in other words, in-
stead of appealing to courts of
law they are beginning to ap-
peal to the cabinet—a group
of politicians. Anyene knows
that a railway *#as far more
means of getting the kind of
justice it wants from a poli-
tician than from the Railway
Board: a politician, even a
prime minister, may be amen-
able to the proper influences.
So far these appeals have not
been successful, but one day
they may be. It will be an un-
fortunate Lime. These appeals
and this idea of getting provi-
sions inserted in charters,
taking provincial roads out of
the jurisdiction of the Domin-
ion board, are altogether
wrong. Ut should be made im-
possible to do either.Can-
