Friday, March 19, 1915. = ————————— E D L S ————————SS Ss The Journal, usual, “talking through hat.” When it says that “Liberalism is as dead in Dominion politics as it is in this province” it be- comes ridiculous by shutting its eyes to what everybody knows to be facts, for the Me- Bride government has scarcely yet regained its breath from the sudden retreat it made from a contest with the Lib- erals. It is still more laugh- able to speak of the “sane pel- icy of Sir Robert Borden.” Ac- cording to The Journal politics” is firing 2,000 civil servants and hiring 10,000 in their place, or admitting that one Liberal is as good as five Tories. The Journal doesn't know the difference between freer trade and Free Trade— but then it is hopeless to argue and educate at once. When it says that the present tendency is to keep everything at home, it apparently disapproves of shipping fish to the United States, thus throwing hundreds of local people out of employ- ment. as Is its “sane Sir Wilfrid Laurier has no intention at present of throw- ing down the whole tariff wall, but he will refuse protection to those who do not need it and who are bleeding the people with their exhorbitant prices. He realizes, however, that Can- ada’s natural. products are as yet hardly serateched and that it would bring about great prosperity to secure for them the great American markets. The Journal and its party be- lieves in a “Little Canada,” with everything owned by a few; the Liberals believe in a “Great Canada,’ with its re- sources developed and with a tariff that prevents the growth of monopolies and trusts. The ~ Liberals believe in progress: they refuse to concede that all the wisdom was with the past. The Tories are hidebound; they cannot conceive that “any good thing can come out of Naza- reth”; as far as progres is con- cerned, they are dead. This, of course, doesn't apply to the rank and file of the party, many of whom vote Tory be- cause their fathers did, but it applies to the leaders of the party and to party organs like The Journal; but then we are going to have a_respetable funeral in June and the party of progress and prosperity un- der Sir Wilfrid will be restored. oe & ¢ The policy of the Dominion government is to increase the duties’ upon the many com- FOR ADVICE. ~ ITORIA.

Here is an example: The reve- nue of the Land Department for the present year, closing at the end of the present month, is less than $3,000,000. The expenditure in igif was $2,277,098. The expenditure for the current year is slightly over $4,000,000. That is some idea of the way that the money is wasted. The homestead en- tries in 1911 were 44,569, con- siderably more than for the present year. a a Of the employees who were working in the Department of the Interior in 1911, 309 were dismissed, 374 resigned and 1,651 new officials were ap- pointed.
