Oct 19, 1027 RIRIIT TO CHANGE CONSTITUTION While we do not know all the question- involved in the proposal of the Nova Scotia Government to abolish the Upper Chamber In that province', it Menu on the surface as if the Privy Council has decided that Canada has a. rijrht to change her own constitution. If she has not, he very oon will. TEA BENNETT AND i CONVENTION i.vauer Kcsemules Hon. . L. .Mackenzie King in Personal.

Possibly it may be abolished altogether. Nova Scotia -was much Dver-governed. For a small province not any larger than a British -Coluntbiu county to have both a. legislative' assembly and a legislative council seems ridiculous. All it needs is a municipal council. For the whole of Canada a parliament of half as many members of the House of Commons and no Senate would cut the expenses very greatly and the money could be' used for building postoffices and other public buildings, fishboat docks and needed improvements. If Nova Scotia has the right to change her own constitution, then Canada also has that right. At any rate a request for a change in the British North America Act would be acted on instantaneously by the British Government. TALKING OF RECENT ELECTION Many people are still talking about the Nelson election. It is claimed that if it had been a general election, the Conservatives would have won and it is" also claimed that if it had been a general election the Liberals would have had a much larger majority.

He has been elected a direc tor oi the Good Roads League at the convention at Nanaimo and he is to represent the city at the meeting of the Unity League at Victoria before returning home. No other local man has taken the time off to attend these gatherings. Mr. Brady was at Winnipeg but he is the federal member and would be expected to go in his official capacity as such anywajr. Any prospective Conservative candidate missed an opiwrtunity in not getting in touch with Conservative leaders and policies at the big event. The mayor has added much to his prestige in going to those gatherings and it will be increasingly difficult for the Prince Rupert District Conservative Association to refuse him the nomination for the right to contest the legislative seat in their behalf. REVIVAL OF SEAL COVE Yesterday attention was drawn in a news article to the resuscitation of Seal Cove as an industrial section of the city. The two mills and box factories, the McLean shipyard, the marine ways, the probability of the cannery reopening, as well as the Cold Storage business makes this part of the city the most productive of any from an earning point of view. There should be a lot of building in that district next summer unless the employees intend to travel back and forth to work. , Home is a place where men go to have their minds made up for them.

About the only difference between Mr. King and Mr. Bennett Is that Mr, Klpj It Uie leader of the Liberal party and Mr. Bennett ! the leader of the l.lberal.Conaerratlve party. That1 the difference. A man. rather frayed and bearing traces of tbe past, itood on a street corner In an English town denouncing the evUs of drink to a group gathered around. He himself hi been a rfc-Mm f tbeee evils. He admitted that he bad rolled In the gutter and sunk to the depths. But, be said, two vears ago he bad turned away from liquor. And now, my friends." he said. "look at the difference." A voice from the rear of the crowd: Wot difference?" If one were to point out the differ. ence between the policy of the Liberal party and the new policy of the Oon-fcrvatlves. which may be called a Made-ln.Wlnnlpeg policy, someone would likely rUe in the rear of the ball and ask: "Wot difference?" (iiirnnii: was iickt Mr. Bennett was made leader of tbe party. Mr. Outhrle was second, and the other four were nowhere. The second ballot did It. Mr. Bennett made speech of acceptance In which he said he was not eclnt to let his moriev . hi .law pracUoe, bU business, or other rtdelimw'eer into 'fi'ls ivir,tr all his energy to the leadership of the Conservative power. From all appear ances, the convention went home Reeling good. It Is hardly possible that any one outside Of Mr. Bennttt and Ut Guthrie had any real expectation of Retttng the leadership. There were evi- dencca that Mr. Outhrle would liked to have bad It. Taking his defeat In a sporting manner, the lines seemed a little deeper on his face and the smile rather wistful as be sat on the plat form . and heard the reading of the decisive ballot. COJIIUti: TLILV AHOUT The Conservative platform was add ed to one embellished bv reanliitlnm passed. It was almost amazing the way the convention adopted them con sidering that in several cases they meant turning away bv a comDlete turn from things for which the leaders of the Conservative party were offering to lay down their lives only a few months ago. It just took 30 seconds to endorse la At Uhe Crow tfest' rates 'are guaraiWeed By the1 Ctetiservatlvel'Tartyi'ln jP'teSolulloi! which says that "we pYedg our party to maintain the existing freight rates as a maxima on grain and grain products."

The Hudson Bar Railway was also endorsed In less than 30 seconds. The Conservative party Dledeed Itself to complete the line at once and to pro vide terminal and harbor fatuities t carry on shipping operations. Thirty year's opposition by tbe Toronto and Montreal Conservatives went In lest than 30 seconds. (Montreal Oazetti and Ottawa Journal please copy.) One lone voice rose In stacatto pro. test against the resolution that expressed the convention's satisfaction at the position of Canada as an autonomous nation within the British Em-Dire and of "relolctnir at the nowen and freedom nr action which Canada as a na- ion ba attained " The voice was that' of Thomai Church, of To. 1 J5ulMes- JT is the task of every man to provide a competence for himself and his family - - it is his , dream to win financial independence. It is upon this laudable ambition of man that the get-rich-quick schemer preys. Year after year he trades upon the inexperience of the small investor. Wild are his claims - - alluring the he makes the promises - - tragic ronto, who said he wanted none oi this nonsense. Mr. Ohureh called thl League of Nations a "moek parliament." The Imperial Relations resolution went even farther in Its rejoicing at Canada' new status by pointing out that "this position has been the result of the practical application, mainly by tne leaders ox the Conservative party, of the principles laid down by that party." The, Conservative -convention, with the exception of Mr. Ohureh, took its share. tong with Sir Robert Borden. Hon. W. L. Mackenzie Klna.

The Conservative party is out to support good roads, agriculture, giving their natural resources back to the province, old age pension, the clgrrt-hour day, the Canadian National railways, a railway from Peace niver to the Pacific, giving more nd better treatment to the Maritime provinces,, the use of Canahan ports a weekly day of rest in 24 hours, more id bete- rajiau. and eterythmv else hK mi;;hr be offer! nv a n.asonabk rates , Between tbe King government aifd the new Conservative convention the oountry baa been shorn eiaar at mil. Ueal planks. There lent another mir left in tbe country, in fact, the rush tor ptanks has been so heaw that more than half the time Mr. King and Mr. Bennett are going to find themsel ves iioauag around on the same plank. TWO UNoi'.WiES The convention jva run In two lan guages. There was an -Bnallah chair man and a French chairman, an Er,. !lsh secretary and a French secretary, announcements m English and the rne announcements in French, speeches In English and the same upeeehes in French. It was something new for a western audience.

They do It very well. Although it may bo difficult for the English-speaking dele- saves to understand the language It 'hould not be hard for them tn under stand that the Quebec delegates were nung tnem a hint that It does no harm to know two languages. Winnipeg sees the convention dele gates depart with regret. They were heartily welcome ! The newspapermen saw with resrei Mi Mei-rhea and Mr Ferguson dopar in opposite directions. 1 li disillusionment and loss. Take no chances.
