POOR DICK

Sir Richard McBride has ar-
rived in London, but, according
to advices received, J. H. Tur-
ner is still agent-general for
British Columbia at the capital
of the Empire. His appoint-
ment, having been made by
special act of parliament, can
only be set aside by the same
means, therefore the aged and
faithful servant of the province
awaits action. by the Bowser
administration. J- H. Turner
is willing to resign under cer-
tain conditions, but these con-
ditions can only be ratified by
the house. Sir Richard, there-
fore, is stranded in London
without a job, or, at least, with
the present holder of the post
still in office.

Bowser, in his own graceful
fashion, has sought to show
that J. H. Turner, who has ser-
ved the province faithfully for
many years, is no longer fit to
shoulder the responsibilities of

the position, yet the aged
statesman has shown that he
has wit and grit enough to

prevent the boss of British Co-
lumbia from treading over him
rough shod, as is his manner,
while McBride, the late premier
and prospective agent-general,
has allowed himself to be ig-
nominously kicked out. Com-
paring these two gentlemen un-
der present cireumstances, it
would appear that the aged
gentleman is still much the
stronger man of the two, and
therefore still better qualified
to hold the London job than
Dick is-

Poor Dick is in a decidedly
awkward predicament, but the
Bowser solution will be simple-
He will merely saddle the peo-
ple of British Columbia with
another big fat’ salary to pay.
This extra salary is not to be
paid in order to further the in-
terests of the province, but

been

party for the Conservative

party and_its friends, and Sir

Richard had become so dan-

gerous that he had, last April,
even the temerity to show that
he had a mind of his own. Such
conduct could not be tolerated
by the boss, Bowser, so that
arrangements to shed Dick had
to be made immediately. The
getting rid of Dick is to cost
the province a fat salary, jus!
as the possession of him cost
it a handome sum. However,
people must pay for their
privileges, and if they happen
to be Conservative privileges
to the betterment of good Con-
servatives, they must pay sev-
eral times, in fact just as often
as Bowser feels like charging
them up with something.

Bowser has now surrounded
himself with men of the type
of Tisdall and Manson, and he
will have no further trouble in
the way of cabinet ministers
who try to think or act for
themselves- They will sweetly
acquiesce in any old thing that
the boss cares to bring along,
no matter what it may cost the
people. Fortunately, the pub-
lic have been doing some tall
thinking on their own account
and they not only think, but
are very certain, that they have
had enough of Bowserism.
Bowser knows that they have
had more than enough, bil he
is going to endeavor tu saddle
them with five more vears of
it. He will find that the thing
can’t be done.

verely injured by a blow from a

fact, too, that Zeppelins are
