Twice during the past month has the Globe conclusively proven that I was right in my contention. _ In North Simcoe the Globe worked tooth and nail against the prohibition canâ€" didate and in Northâ€"west Toronto the Globe did everything in its power to defeat the prohibition candidate. \ Of course the Globe will claim that in working for the Rowell candidate it was working for prohibition but as a matter of fact Mr. Rowell has never yet declared for prohibition on his‘ own hook. Mr. Rowell‘s policy in 1914 was "abolish the bar" which merely cut a man off from getting a five cent glass of beer in a bar and sent him to a liquor store to get a dollar bottle of whiskey. The only prohibition policy that was the act itself introduced, passed, and put tive government under the leadership of Now I am opposed to Hea to the double shuffle of the crowd in 1914 when it thoug "liquor‘‘ party in 1917 when nd ‘If a newspaper is honest in LatKINES Z2R( WOT LELE, .

When Hearst passed prohibition he lost my vote and support but did he gain the support and vote of the editor of the Toronto Globe? No, we both vote against Hearst now. I vote against him because he broke faith with his party in passing prohibition and the editor of the Toronto Globe votes against him because he is a Conservative, and along comes the liquor men and vote against him because he is a prohibitionist. Fortunate it was for Hearst that in North Simcoe and Northâ€"west Toronto that there was a large enough majority in the constituencies to elect the government candidate in spite of the combine vote of the liquor men, the prohibitionists and the Libâ€" erals but there are not five per cent. of the ridings in Ontario where circumâ€" stances would be as favorable to the Hearst government as they were in North Simcoe and Northâ€"west Toronto. ‘Abolish eat the « traight, me. thins The night that i‘_I}u_ck" left THE INDEPENDENT So long as newspapers We nd f11 Facts and Fancies Nn rt} 1C has about arrived + crase a "National‘ idate of the pJ st, consistent it he can thin political dodg« "National" Government would carry oI ecute the war any better than the pre s decided to put conscription into force i S.

It is thought it would be best for them to return to Canada to take up their civil occupations again,.. where they can perform national service by â€" inâ€" creasing the producing capacity of the Dominion. In this connection, Sir George Perâ€" ley wishes it to be distinctly under stood that no reflection whatever can be cast ou any of these ‘officers who return to Canada. j They have done splendid patriotic work, sperding time any money in raising three battalions. They are a‘l capabe men, fitted to do good serâ€" vice, but the simple fact is there is 10 room for all of them in ‘he organizâ€" ation either here or in France.
