Discreditable Campaign Abuse and Slander v Under the heading, "A Discreditable Campaign," the Ottawa Citizen says: The great Conservative party of Canada, headed by High! linn. Arthur .Meighen, one of the nurct rejected and deieeti'd political leaders in lhe,wnole Dominion, has, from the beginning ti me jireseiii contest, placed an us Hopes or victwry in a cam. pa i git of abuse of the lale Liberal government. 11 has sagacity enoilgh to know that there are in this country as in most others a large number of electors who Usually vote against sonielhing and rarely, for anything, and that these -electors are sufficiently strong to be able to swing the election by "Their negativism. Thus the Tory strategist decided that the only hope they haditf securing sufficient member, in iurlianieiit of fheir uwn color' to gain offjee lay in arousing Ihese negative electors to vote, not for the Conservative;?, but against Ihv Liberal party. And'jjo a campaign of bitter accusation against the. Liberal government was begun, The first shot was1 fired' by .Mr. Meighen in Ottawa, when the greater part of his speech was taken up in telling the people of Canada what a corrupt and 'depraved lot of masqueraders the Liberals were. , - Platform Excesses of Conservatives. 'No one claims that the Customs Department was not corrupt, ,and the revelations in the parliamentary iuiuiry are legitimate subjects of platform discussion. Had the Conservative speakers ooiifined themselves t the evidence brought out in the investigation, none could have genuine cause for complaint. But they immediately began indulging in those platform. excesses that are calculated to prejudice rather than convince, and before long life country was flooded with tales of vile character, with stories of joy-sails ajid unmentionable goings-on, and with insinuations reflecting upon Ihe honor and integrity of Liberal members. What is it Ihe Conservative orators hope to gain by this campaign slander? Already the most notorious of theseiilterance have; been nailed and they have- relHiundtd to the discredit of the titlerers. There were the Doucet aspersions, ilr. Doucet says the Quebec inquiry proved his "Margaret" charges were true. Can .Mr. Doucet deny, or can his apologists deny, that the character xt thoe charges was calculated to and did lead thousands of Canadian -men add women to-believethal Mr. La- pointe and others took part in carousels of the nwist wicked and reprehensible character? Can Mr. Doucet or his apologists deny that, however free from specific charges his craftily .-worded statements were, they were intended to besmirch the moral character of Liberal leaders? But the inquiry, ordered by Ihe Con-seryativegoveninient, revealed that there was no incident on board the "Margaret" which could be a reproach against Hie persons named by the Tory Doucet. ' Another,.. Illustration. Equally interesting is an illustration of Conservative campaign tactics was the statement made by Mr. Nicholson at North Bay.. This former member of the House of Commons, speaking on ihe some platform as Mr. Meighen, was reported as stating that Uiie'of the chief public buildings in Ottawa was "partially turijed -i tii.o a bawdy house" and that "the keeper of the bawdy house was on the payroll of the country at 3,500 a year." When this', astounding and vile utterance was reported in the press of Canada and caused justifiable resentment, Mr. Nicholson indignantly denied that he had said it, and he personally telegraphed to 'The Citizen to give his denial Ihe same publicity as was given the .original allegation. The Citizen gave it greater publicity. But to this deuial, the Canadian Press correspondent who reported the speech, and who is one of the most reliable men in that inost reliable news service, replied that he actually submitted, to Mr. Nicholson a note aking if the denied statement was -correct, j with Ottawa' specially underlined, aird thai Mr. iSiChoisoir. wrote "yes' on theuiote. .1 still have tne note, says tlw Canadian Press reporter. - Are Disgusted at , ' v ' ; ' Scandal Mongers. . - What is the public to think? Many must be thoroughly disgusted at stich tactics. But the public has the final word in the matter. It can record its approval or disapproval on Septem ber .11. The signs plainly point to a revulsion of feeling against the Tory scandal-mongers. In Quebec, especially, in which pro-j vince Mr. Meighen hopes to gain the desired additional support. will these campaign slanders work to the disadvantage of the party or high tariffs and low platform ethics. But in Ontario, tlo, except in the case of the congenial ultra-Tories, there H likely to be a reaction against Ihe Conservative muck-rakers. Elsewhereraify wavrers from Liberal or Progressive ranks will long since have been driven back again by the odious methods of Mr. Meighen's lieutenants. Badly conceived, execrably carried out, the Tory election campaign seems likely to end in the defeat and humiliation of those who were resjAmsible for its character.
