DAILY EDITION. aS MonpDAY, FEB. 12 In having across from him on the floor of Parliament Sir Wilfrid Laurier as leader of the opposition, Premier Borden is handicapped as no prime minister at Ottawa has been before unless we find a parallel in Hon. Alexander Mackenzie's experi- ence when Sir John Macdonald led the opposition previous to 1878. Then, as now, says the Toronto Star, an adroit and ex- perienced ex-prime minister led the forces of attack. Then, as now, the opposition leader knew more about government and the departmental details than those who sat on the treasury benches. But even in that case Sir John was under a cloud, owing to the Pacific scandal which, for a time, hampered him, as nothing hampers Sir Wilfrid Laurier. The present leader of the opposition is where he is not be- cause of a scandal, but because his administration attempted to put into effect a foreign trade bargain for which the country was at the moment too prosperous to feel“the need. The administra- tion anticipated the country’s marketing necessities. It came to grief because of too great a prevision. It was dealing in futures, while the electors—many of them—wanted presents, and got them. Contract rates | SUBSCRIPTION RATES—To Canada, United States and Mexico—Dairy, 50c Bed.

Neither} Mr. Blake nor Mr. Laurier had the prestige of fifteen years in| office during the period of the country’s greatest prosperity. Nor} was Sir Wilfrid faced by an influential oppusition. The Con-| servatives after 1896 were long disorganized and weakened by| feuds. Sir Charles Tupper was a great parliamentarian, but} he had been abroad for years, and he could never quite patch | up a strife which had he returned sooner might have been pre-| vented. Then came Mr. Borden, almost as new in politics as he} was new in leadership. | Today nearly all the experienced administrators in Parlia-| ment are in opposition, and are led by the man who aione has | ranked as yet with Sir John Macdonald in prestige. That Mr. | Borden’s way will be a rocky one for a while may be expected. | HOW COLONEL SAM HUGHES LOVES CANADA. Colonel Sam Hughes wants to take one hundred thousand of our Canadian boys from the nursery about the time they are| able to lisp their alphabet, arm them to the teeth with as many | rapid fire weapons as their childish strength will carry, put them through a set of goose steps before they are in long pants, have them shooting at an imaginary enemy by the time they are 415 and read: for slaughter before they are old enough to vote, says the Edmonton Capital. Then, with all these boys brought up from the cradle to believe that war was the great aim and end of man; that to maim and slay some foreign people, preferably a weaker or de- fenseless people, was chivalrous, noble and grand, the mine would be well and truly laid, the militant and belligerent spirit properly fostered and every preparation complete for the desola- tion of one hundred thousand Canadian homes. thence west 40 chains, thence south 40 chains, thence west 40 chains, thence north SU chains to point of commencement, con- taining 480 acres, more or less.
