When lliey boiled on Ihe first budget debate a meeting of Hie parly was called by Hoberl Forke, their leader, and Tor three days Ihe matter was discussed. Finally Mr. Forke was persuaded- lo re- lain tin leaderslup and the bolt ing members voted lo a man for a resolution reaffirming Iheir belief in Progressive principles. Then they boiled again Friday, voting with the government on a lack of confidence motion which also declared for a low lariff. It was amusing lo see Ihe manner in which Ihe, Conservn-live members slunk out of the House when the vole was taken. Fourteen of them hail the cour age oi tneir convictions ami voted with the.i: government against the low tariff proposal of Ihe Progressive and eleven Pro- :ressive voted the ,same way. I'hc oilier Progrcsivcs .voted iguiust Ihe government lariff policy. Only 113 member in all could lie found lo support the low tariff proposals, Ihe Con servatives evading the vole alto gether. They could not vole for low tariff and they disliked hav ing lo vote with the Mackenzie King government, ,o they did not answer llie division: call. Among those who refused lo vole was III. lion.

It is understood that nnothcrJ Progressive caucus will lie held soon at which the action of Ihe eleven boiling member. will be oisciissed but il is not ifioughl lliey will be drummed out;pf the parly just now.

Aristocracy of Canada in Railway Offices in Old Days Says Leader of Progressives Hubert Forke, leader uf Ihe Progressive Party in the House of Commons, does no favor either Hie (J.P.H., owning all Ihe railways of Canada or the Gnyeriimeiit doing the same, lie sees danger in monopoly. Tells of the lime when the (J.P.H. had a monopoly in western Canada. Mr. Forke, speaking in the iiou.se of Commons, said in part: I ran remember that when II ame to Canada as a young ma: nd first came in touch with some of the Canadian Pacific llailway official I concluded that he aristocracy of Canada 'was lo ae loiinu among me sen am. s in le employ of that railway at that time. This is long: ago, and whatever I say can be in no way a reflection on any of the men who occupied positions with the rail way at that lime. Hut I remember the time when the ordinary man would approach a railway ticket ofrite with misgivings; be would ask a' uiifstiou and wail a considerable time before the gentleman in charge found it convenient lo look up. And when he did look up and the question wa asked again he would, turn over a number of leave'and af- a. wIiile. oujMiMHXJI. answer. rorll. enough you might gel what in formation you were after. 1 do not think I am exaggerating. Hut what is the case today with the Canadian Pacific and llie I'aiiadiau National Railways? Yop gel Ihe very, best attention, Ihe most courteous treatment. and accurate advice, ami no one can complain in any degree of the services rendered by the of ficers of either company. do not know what has brought about the change but there is no doubl that a remarkable change has taken place in the services rendered by both companies to day in comparison with the stale rf affairs that existed in lin early ear of our history. No Amalgamation The question of amalgamating llie two railway systems was dis cussed a few days ago, and af ter considerable, thought I am inclined (o the opinion (hat it would mil be a very good idea. It may be possible al some linwj fn the future; it ntiiy become a necessity some day. Put when look al the matter coolly and Calmly il seems to me that il would not be very wise to have mi amalgamation of the two systems, for t do not think it would be a good idea to have either railway monopolize the business of the country. I be lieve I mentioned that fact while the , lion, nreinbcr ' Mr. Filler was peaking the oilier day. when I pointed out that if Ihe Canadian Pacific llailway operated all the ailways in Canada we should have that monopoly of which the minister spoke vesterday. In my opinion, if any company owned alt the railways in Ciiuada il would simply mean thai the country would be in ils posses sion. Consequently I rould not for one moment (hiuk of Ihe Canadian Pacific Hallway oper ating all the railways of Canada. On Hie other hand, if all tin1 railways were lo come into Ihe possession of the Canadian Na tiouaf llailway Company, and owned by Ihe people of Hie conn try, with all Ihe faith I have in human nature, and in the light of all Ihe knowledge I am gaining in these days in political affairs. I could not believe that il wiiubl be possible lo keep the railway Tree from political manipulation in some way or other. This i the situation a I see It. II is a fine idea, ami it looks continued on page two SECOND VACANCY HOUSE COMMONS Thomas Henry Thompson, Con- 'scrvatlvo Member for East Hastings, Is Dead HEU.EVILLK, Ont., May 18.
