some of those spoken of as likely to - : \

men simply, the selection of whom
would be due entirely to their devo-

concede that the Conservatives have
within their ranks such good mate-
rial for legis! and to promi
them Liberal votes for ‘such candi-
dates, . But the Miner is nervous
lest this good material should be
overlooked in favor of ‘machine
men.”" - Apparently the machine to
which it refers is the Conservative
organization, for no other machine
has anything to do with the choice
of Conservative candidates. The
term “machine” seems to be ap-
plied in a disparaging sense, as one
might refer to the genial, brainy
editor of the Miner as a ‘‘pencil-
shover.”

The machine is run by the whole
body of Conservative voters. - ~The
association as a whole chooses its
executive committee and, if the
Miner refers to that body as a ma-
chine, itis disparaging the whole
organization. Every registered
Conservative will have a voice in
the make-up of the machine, com-
monly called the convention, which
will nominate the candidate. The
machine which calls itself the Lib-
eral-Conservative association sent
to the Nelson convention a delega-
tion which voted that the party
should rely ‘‘not solely upon party

part, it is free to contess that either
its notions of business differ in the
most radical manner from Mr. Cot-
ton’s or else that the only possible
conclusion to be arrived at from a
survey of the Cotton administration
is that he made perhaps about the
worst mess of the business of gov~
ernment in the history of British
parliamentary institutions.”

Mr. Whitney fired a bomb into
the Ross camp in the Ontario legis-
lature by filing three affidavits of
John G. Pritchett, confessing his
part id the West Elgin frauds and
telling how he. had been subsidized
to flee the country.

It is proposed by the government
to increase the preference given to
British trade to 3334% of the tariff,
to grant free trade to Trinidad and
to put beet sugar machinery on the

ince of seeking to secure Martin
