At this writing the defeat of the
LAur.tr government is apparent and
even, if Ui* couplet? returns do not
give the Opposition a majority, reci
procity itself, ai any rate is defeat**!.
There has perhaps been no finer
thing in the history of Canadian pol
itics than the spectacle of a great
old man taking hut political life in
his hands for a principle and for It
going down to defeat. Sir Wilfrid
Launer will stand as a twin figure
with that other grand old leader
whose name has so frequently
fcoea heard throughout this campaign,
Sir John A. Macdooald.
? There can be uo doubt that the
uudcrly tng cause of the defeat of
the pa<.t and with it that of the gov
ernment was due to the national sen
sitiveness on the matter of annexa
tion. Such being the case, if the con
servatives come to power, their po
sition will be based purely upon a
misunderstanding, one which the par
ty itself most sedulously cultivated.
It may be interesting to dwell for a
moment upon the prospects of the
Conservative party in power without
any constructive program.
Its accession to power was doubt
less as great a surprise to itself as
it was to the liberal party. There
w:ll first of all be a grand grab for
office. At present ao one looms up
in the party big enough to control
the discordant elements. The Quebec
wing, though it does not bring a ma
jority w;th it is fairly strong and in
alliance with the nationalists, the
preaching of whose doctrine depleted
the Liberal ranks. These will de
mand recognition. The Western
members will also be clamoring for
the spoils while Ontario, as usual will
demand the lions share of what is
going. A seat must of course be
found for Mr. Borden. What will he
do with Foster and the malodorous
Fowler, both of whom are among the
elected?
And our own Richard? Will he
now be prepared to sacrifice himself
upoa the altar of duty and leave his
little job in Victoria to enter the
larger field at Ottawa. It is am like
ly that Dick,, shrewd to his own in
terests. will be :n any hurry to lay
down his sceptre. He will want to
see how the discordant elements can
be got together to run a govern
ment on a small majority. The Con
servative party is by no means safe
in the saddle of power yet. A redis
tribution must soon come and the
demands of the West for more repre
sentation cannot be ignored. It is
an open secret that Sir Wilfrid had
intended to bring down a redistribu
tion bill immediately after reciprocity
was passed and to hare gone to the
country after a session or two The
/Conservative government cannot de
lay the passage of a redistribution
bill and after it is on the statute
books the country will grow impatien
for its increased representation. It
would appear that another election
will have to be fought within not
more than two years. ? B. C. Satur
