In Parliament today Mr. Kino will move that shea Parliament adjourne for EuUr oa March is It remain adjourned until April tola la but another Indication that the Government incapable of tunclloBini. Beceue Mr.

Ki.no la not adjourning Farliamnt (or 10 days something that baa not taken Blec In, years out ot respect lor Easter. He adjourning It becauM ha baa bo real Cabinet, and no leglslatlva programme. After ova montha of intriguing, shuffling, and ha still unabla to fO oa. We bar been, and wa ahall remain, without Government Mr. Foam aald on Friday that If Mr.

Maiunta vara in office ha would be' precleely Id the wn position Mr. Kino. Perhaps so. But that I not the point. Tbe point la that the Kites Government baa shown Uaelf Incapable of carrying on, end, that having been abown, and there being no.

proapect Of Its Improvement, It la up to Parliament or the country to try eomelhlDg elae. Mr. Jliw.nn at least a Biuch entitled to a chance aa wai Mr. King. The truth la that Mr.

Kiss' should never' have beta permitted to meat Parliament with a legislative programme. All that he had right to do the Speech from the Throne ehould hare been confined to this was to aummoa Parliament and aik It whether. In flew of the verdict of the electorate. It wanted Win to go on. It that bad taken place.

Parliament would have turned Mr. Km out and the tiovernor-Guneral would have called upon Mr. Mmciiaiv. If Mr. Mlhjisji.

la turn, found hlmaelt unable to govern, he could have lone to the country. And the country, we tnlnk. would have cleared up the meae. Aa tblnga turned out, Mr. Ki.ie waa permitted to come to Parliament and to bribe enough of It to vote lor him.

He waa permitted to eay to It, la effects know the country turned me out, and I yon gentlemen have no confidence In me; but If yo let me itay in office I will give yoa this, sad this, and tb.ii." The Speech from the Throne waa made an ally ot aa attempt to purchase office. It helped to the verJlct of the poll. Canada, at a grave Juncture like the present, la entltltd to a Government. The politicians who. are trying to prevent that In order to atlck to salaries are trilling with Bra, VKCLK BAM KXOWB HOW.

Lsat year the United States, with 110 million people, Imported 5.000,000 pounds ot butter. As a con- sequence, the United Slates TarlB Board hss advaaceo the duty on butter from eight to twelve cents a poa id Canada, with nine million people, will tola year (If the preaent rate ot Importations continue) import two or three million pouoda of hotter. In other wo'ii In proportion to population, we are Importing six times ss much batter ss the United States Yet the duty en butter entering Canada Is I eeuta a pound. From Australia It Is one cent a poand. Such facta need no argument.

While every other nation in the world la protecting Its boms market, pro tecting It tor manufacturers as well ss tor agriculture, Canada becomes mors snd more a dumping ground for the aurplus products of rival countries. And this all because we have a Government willing to take sectional and selfish dictation so that It may hold oa to office. ItORB ABOVT TUB HVD80X BAY RAILWAY. Extraordinary are the controversial methods ol some politicians snd newspapers. Last week a local contemporary, whose propenalty for generalities la notorloua, stated (1) that tbe Hudaon Bay Railway was begun by a Conservative Government, and (2) that between 1914 and 1911 the same Conservative Government bad expended 20 millions on the project.

Ths Jui-sjal produced Government official reporta to shew both theas statements as tales. We showed that the Hudson Bay Railway was launched In 1D09 by tbe Liberals, (I) that much ot the money expended on the road by the Conservatives waa to pey for contract let by the Liberals, and (3) that the 120,000,000 which our contemporary ssld was spent by the Conservstlves between 1114 and 191S was actually spent by the Laritrs Government, the Bout Government, the Union Government, tbe Mcicncn Government and the Kn Government, over a period ot seventeen years. Caught red-handed, oar contemporary was not dismayed. Compelled to admit although grudgingly that Its figures were all wrong, snd that It was ths Liberals and not the Conservstlves that started the Hudson Bsy Railway, It came out on (Saturday on a new tack, which. If not more Inaccurate than Its Brat (which would be Impossible) wss certainly mora rldlculoua.

It complains that the man who Is really responsible for Mr. Kixo going on with the Hudson Bay project Is Honorable Rom-r Roccsa. Thus: Opposition critics try to convey tbe Impression that the Liberals are wnolly responsible (or reviving tbe Hudson Bay Railway expenditure. Lett September, at the Conservative convention which nominated Mr. Rugfss In Winnipeg South, the master mind of Tory statecraft announced that tbe Conservatives were out to save th country from ruin.

Ths Canadian Press reported the Conservstlve measures tor ssvlng the country as follows: Increased immigration and completion of the Hudaon Bay Railway were two of the needa ot Western Csnsds that Mr. Rnnxas auld the Conservative party would remedy. So, yoa see, it is'not ths Progressives at all. Whitt Mr. Kin hinted at Melfort so many Liberal meraoera so many miles ot Hudson Bsy Railway doesnt count.

Ths Progressiva i threat to kick tbe Libers I Government out of office doesn't count. The man rho Is really msklng the policies of Rt, Hon. Mackckiii Ki.vo Is the Honorable Rosnr Rnntas. He Is the villain. He Is bound to keep the Liberals In power, Well, we ehall not labor the point any further this la the season ot cracked lips.

says: Our contemporary makes one other statement. It The Conservatives wonld be In the same position, it they were In office, ss the Liberals ore this session, oa the estimates for completion of the Hudson Bay Railway. This statement la absolutely wrong, and our con- temporary moat know that It la wrong. Is than a rnonth ago Mr. Mkigiikjv, psrtlcularly sddraaslng the Progressives, made hla position on the Hudson bey Railway unmistakably clear.

He sail that it It coifh be shown that the Hudson Bay Railway could ba completed for three or four million dollara. he wjiild be prepared to complete but that If thla could not be shows then be wss not In fsvor of completing It. This considering that, tbe est I tna ted coat of 'ijj--g Vh Vi" Is Wflllllons waa tantamount to saying that Mr. Mrinnr. would not proceed witn the acheme.

But what Mr. Muuuur aay, or what Mr. Ruotss tblnki, either one way or the other, does not rfli. the attitude of Tuc Jotasau It la against tbe 'it too Bay Railway because II believes. Just at tbe over- whelming majority In Canada bellevea, that the Hudson Bay Hallway It Indefensible folly; and would denounce and oppose It even though the whole ot the Conaervatlvs party In Parliament wars a unit la li favor.

1924... THE CATINEAV HIGHWAY. Sir: Referring to your editorial of the 17th which deals with the threat of the Quabeo Government to abandon work on the Gat-Ineau highway, because the townships of North Wakefield and Wright have declined to bear any part of the cost of auch work, I may say that If thla threat la carried out It is an eloquent admlsaloo by ths Government of the Province of Quebeo that Ita road policy and methods are and bavs been blunder- tnr and Inept Thoe In th county who have not agreed with the proposition of asaumlng added taxation for this road, have been told that the Que beo Government could and would force th work to completion and compel tha municipalities to pay their share of the work. If this Is the esse, why dose the Quebec Government not carry out Ita road project and try to force th unwilling municipalities to pay for it? Ther le no doubt but' that uch an automobll highway would ba a aplendid thing (or tourlats and auto- moblllats. and would result In larger revenues to th Provincial Treasury for gasoline snd beer taxes, sutomoblle taxes, stc, snd this being tha case, it la only fair that the coat of such roadways should be borne by the province and not load ed upon the munlcipalitiea and the agriculturists.

Th preaent highway in th Gat-Inean Valley haa carried the tram 3 of the district (or over 7ft years, and it Is Important to nots that almost ths entire bulk ot this tramo hss been transported on winter roads. The existence ot" this new automobile highway will not enabls ths farmer to rata an extra buahel of oata. nor to cut and transport an additional log. The roads In Wright township ar adequate for all needs. Including the needs of touring sutomoblllats, and the people of the township are quit villtng to maintain them aa they have been doing, without launching Into thla unnecessary extravagance at this ttms.

If the Province ot Quebec wants to iinprovs the rosda In order to Improve Ita revenue, let the province aa a whole bear the coat of euch Isnprovemenla, and etop threatening the people who do not agree with Its blundering and bull-dosing roada policy.
