It saw little good in anything that the Conservative party did and all its editorials had a Liberal bias. Now it is changing Some of the editorial writers did not like the change and left positions they had held for a long lime. The change in policy at the tilohe is simply another development along the line of modern journalism. The day of blind partizan papers has gone and the tendency everywhere is toward a fairer and more judicial viewpoint in dealing with public or any other mailer. Taking an altitude such n that mentioned ihe not mean that a newsjmper will be always on Ihe fence, but it does nieanl that it will not support any party through thick and thin, right or wrong.. There are times when any newspaper should do its' utmost to elect u candidate. At Ihe same time it should always be willing to give Ihe other side equal prominence in its new columns and to allow every poible opportunity to discuss Ifiei issues on both sides. ' i United Empire And Canadian Flag. The United Empire, a propaganda monthly review of Em pire affairs, published in London by Ihe Royal Colonial Insti tute, mentions the Canadian flag incident editorially. It says It is unfortunate that ever)' movement made in Canada, which her stains warrants, is .treated a of jiipqrimport. Canada for instance, is see-king a distinctive flag micIi as other dominion' possess. At onco there are protasis, a though It were a novel slep. Mr. Mai-keizie King met the objectors with a iMisitive assurance that he would support no proposal which did not include the Union Jack as the nio-l distinctive feature of Canada's national flag." What the United Empire does not realize Is . that every trivial event is used for political purposes in this country and efforts are made to turn such matters as Hie choosing of a flag to parly advantage. strongly amalgamation of Ihe Canadian National and Canadian against Pacific railway systems. It says: The Free Press believes it is speaking the mind of the West when it says that the people or Ibis part. of the Dominion will not, stand for any amalgamation or tin two railway systems. The West will not stand for a railway monopoly whether it be, a Canadian Pacific Railway monopoly or a Dominion fiov-ernment railway monopoly. It is a pretty safe guess that Ihe people or Canada will not stand fr il either. .Nothing could be much worse than Hie Senate plan for amalgamation of the Canadian Pacific njid Canadian National systems. Not only would it set up a railway monooly but it would establish it in deception. One is bad enough without the other. The Senate plan, according to its sponsors, would leave the country with one railway system over which the government and the people of Canada would have control. It means nothing ot the sort. '.lt means banding the control or the system, to the Canadian "Pac.fi Railway. The Senate plan provides tor a board' of fifteen,, five. to' be -named by the government, five by the C.P.B4 and these.' tijn (o.iamo anolber five. The public knows what would happen;' U would lie n (ll'.R. board. Doe. the country want this? The plan provides for a guaranteed dividend for the C.P.R. .stockholders while the amalgamation lasts. That means at dividend guaranteed in perpetuity, for who would venture to say thai onco an amalgamation had taken place the C.N.R. lines could ever be unscrambled from Ihe C.P.R. and set up again as an independent system? It is a fino thing for any corporation to have ils dividends guaranteed for nil lime by the people of the country, It is not surprising that the 11 P. It. and il satellites are strong for the Senate plan. They are being handed something on a silver plate. The voice of the C.P.R. speaks in Hie Senate of Caiuola. Capitalists at Montreal and Toronto, if they find it amuses them, may go ahead and draw tip half-a-dozen plans to merge the two railway system,, but the Free Press misses its guess If llicy succeed in putting one of them over .on the people- of Canada. Any government or any parly or any group that nllcmtds to foist a railway monopoly, -no nuttier under whal guise, on the backs of the people of Canada, or flirts with a scheme to create such a railwny monopoly, is putting ils neck on Hie block. If il values its neck it had better keep it away from the block.
