Mr' Borden might very,' well' apply this new principle in' tory. policy at'home and urge the McBride government, which'represents the Conservative party in this province, to halt in its'- careeiS of, political .corruption and partisan jobbery, so damnatory to that administration. **., The war shows, one .defect in'the Japanese military training.

PUBL1CM1SREPR1CSKNTATION It is'a matter for regret that so many public men of Canada'''are de'*boralely dishonest in their public utterances:* " 'The , people have a right to 'know the truth and to expect' something'' better fiom public . men than "distorted statements. George EuJia's Foster, he who was once a shining light in the Toiy ranks, but whose services have lately'been rejected by every constituency whose favor he- has sought, .had the bad taste at the manufacturers banquet to charge Sir Wilfred Laurier -with insincerity in- adopting' preferential trade,with the mother country, and 'he was rightly,, sat-upon by Sir Howard 'Vincent, an 'eminent Englishmen, who was present. Sir Howard; said "Sir Wilfred had given deeds .'and not* offers", and pointed out that under "the Liberal preferential tariff devised-;by the Laurier government imports from Britain to Canada hTid increased by from'29 to 58 millions, while exports from Canada to* Britain had increased from -62 "to -125 millions.- Yet almost every Tory sp'eaker deliberately reiterates on thc platform'the falsehood that Sir Wilfred and the Liberal partly "are not in sympathy with the very policy they introduced and have successfully carried out. from the -*oil, and to the development of.the natural,resource-, Mich at- timber nnd miner.il we.illh.* While the,0. 1\ It. make a,1.1--" un tho ro.id they do not evident!.- take into account the fact thi- brancli is- an important, feeder ,tti their, main line,.from which it.gets- no credit. The train ciowh have to bekepton in winter and paid full time, and the extra expense of run- nin������a daily would only be that of wear and. tear,- which- cannot amount to so very much. , With the number of people coming into the, valley it, must'have thisAlaily train Wvice, and if thc only wnv to get it is by'the provincial government 'contiibuting1 a little . more, ^and the dominion government assisting through the mail service,' the" C. P.' 11. extra fuel and wear.and tear bill for'the daily service could- bo made up with little cost lo each government ancl the district could have the dailytrain service.' With the large and increasing, passenger t,ra.(lic through'the valley .both governments will be 'fully justified in contributing the small assistance necessary to secure- a dtiily, train service. Thc grants would onlv be required for a year or two at most, as the rapid development of tralllc would soon overcome the extra expense involved. -, We ask Mr. GiiU'her.'M. P.', and 'Mr. Ross, the Liberal candidate for ��������� Yale:Cariboo, to take up'th's matter with the Dominion government, and back up tlie action of .the Railway Commissioners. ���������*, Here'also is a good opportunity for Price Ellison; 'M.

Mr. Burrill's meetings last week do not augur well for the suppo.t which he will receive in YaL 'Cariboo during the present can ��������� -paign. A great many electors on the Conservative side were bitterly disappointed that Mr. Shatford did not get the nomination,, considering he would have made the better representative of the party, ancl they do not take kindly to Mr. Burrill in conseouence.' Premier Borden's insinuation as to the prosperity of certain Liber a1 ������ at Ottawa is evidently meant io: Hon. Clifford Sifton. -, 'It i? well- known that Mr. Siiton made big profits by lucky investments on the stock'markets." Mr. Sifton stands high in financial circles in England where he has been offered the management at high salary of a big financial company if he w'.ll resign from the dominion cabinet and accept. , The Tory po'-'cv is nothing it no self-contradictory. At a Cons-ei- vative meeting at Toronto la week the party leaders howled high proactive lai'ffs with coi - sequent large increases in taxatiu. through the customs, and at lhe same time they denounced the Liberals for having increased lhe taxation���������a statement entirely contrary to fact. Reason cuts no figure with a party that th'nks it owns the earth and sea and all that in them is, and that no party- has the right to control the reins of government but the Tory party. A PROUD RECORD. - The progress of Canada, socially and commercially, under liberal rule, is something not only the liberal party, but the nation as a whole, conservative r.ncl liberal, has reason to-be proud of. During the liberal .regime Canadian exports have risen from $110,000,000 in 1896 to" .1214,000,000 in 1903. that is they hav.e increased nearly as much during the seven years of liberal rule as in all the long pre- ceeding* period. Imports have more than doubled -Jn- the same seven years. The exodus of emigration, which had taken across the boundary 1,200,000 native-born Canadians, has been .converted into a tide of* immigration into the country, scores of thousands oi these Canadians or their descendants returning to their mother land. Gieal'*--tof all, the evils of race and religious prejudice, wb'ch, under tory rule, threatened to curse th's fair land, even to result in civil war. Have been overcome by the splendid tact and f-lalf-siniinsh'p of Sir WiHred Laurier, the Liberal leader, ably seconded by b'*- loyal supporters.ancl English ancl French, Prolc-tanl and Calho,;c, I've together in harmony, ������ave for the discreditable appeals to race and re^gior-s prejudice that the tory pres*. ancl speakers make from time to time in the hope of stirring up sectional or re,;gioii.i strife in their desperate endeavor to regain thc power of government���������a power there is no guarantee that they would exercise, if they got it, any better than before, when the birthright of the people was despoiled for the enrichment of the family compacts of those days. With thc Liberal government of Canada also originated the first practical steps toward federal ion. when Canada instituted a preferential tariff pol'cy towards the mother country. ; -TORY INCONSISTENCY. _ ' ,Tlie tories are '.crying out for higher'.pi'oteciive 'duties on binders and harvesting.' machinery. W(lio reduced ,the "'duties ?'Hon. G. E. Poster, treasurer in'- the "conservative cabinet, leduced tliat',tariff'20 per cent,*and-g'a'ye 'very,.good reason for his' action when 'he' said : "The'reduction will have the effect of greatly cheapening 'one'" of the largest items-of expenditure"; tb which-the farmer has,been subjected, especially in grain growing districts.-;' t , ,\ h,A' "���������' .. . .* The tories cry out for -a tax on lumber.' Yet who 'took' the tax oft"? The same Mr. Foster, treasurer in thc same lory government, took that tax off,in 1894 and gave the following good-reason i/fo'r" his. action j "This is' a 'special--concession," and I hope, will prove,a useful,, one 'in Manitoba and the Northwest. There was no one feature of our examination into the condition,of tilings in that part of the country which impressed itself so forcibly on my mind as the combine which existed for the distribution and sale of lumber. .Every town was parcelled out. One or two men were selected to whom was given the monopoly of selling in each place. The prices were fixed ancl if they sold a fraction of a cent under the fixed prices their privilege was taken away and given to some body else. That monopoly bore heavily on the people of thai country, where lumber is so esentially necessary in the making of'barns and houses, and I came tb the conclusion that, if possible, help should be given by j-juilins lumber on the free-list, and that has been done'." The lories ai-e now crying out for a high protective tariff on lumber, not because t'ley believe it to be,justified any more now than when they repealed it, but because they want to catch the vote of the lumbermen. - ��������� THE ELECTIONS ,'' '''' * *. v . ���������'~-' * Mr. Burrilliat Vernon.
