RICHMOND HILL. ONT" “HAIL TO THE CHIEF.” Expressions of admiration for Sir Wilfrid Laurier as a. spazesman and as a citizen generally, come from all parts of Canada. It is not. often, however, that such complimentary things are said in a. Conservative newspaper as recently appeared in the Toronto World. The following paragraph relating to Canada‘s premier appeared in Monday’s World:â€" “Sir Wilfrid Laurier, as a Cuna- dian looming large in the eyes of the world, deserves the heart- iest possible reception from his fellow- countrymen. Abroad he has acquit- ted himself well. Wish a sure hand @119 iiiheral. he directed his course at the colonial conference, and whether we aglce with him or not, we must all confess that he held himself with the dignity, with the grand air, and with the di- rectness of tile experienced states- man. In manner, in mind and in personality, he appealed to the im- aginaliun of the people of the old land and he returns to Canada the biggest Canadian they have ever seen. Upv nn hie n-wm his: hold is strong. Cab- on his party his hold is strong. Cab- inet Ministers, Membot s of Parliament and party managers fondly speak of him as The Chief. And their chief he isI towering head and shoulders above them in all that makes for statesmanship. In fact where in Canada shall we find a bigger man than Sir Wilfred Lam‘ier? Yet there are Canadians who believe that the great crisis of his public career has come. In is as he decides and acts now that the real bigness of his life must; be estimated. He has the affection of his followers: he may have Lheaf‘fection of all Canadians if he removes the shame from Can- adian politics. It is in him to com- pel recognition as The Chief from all true Canadians.” We have known teachers to tell their school scholars that for some alleged misdemeanor the latter would have to w1‘1te ten thousand lines. The punishmentwas unreas- onable and was scarcely ever on- t‘orced. Had the penalty been fi'fty lines the boy or girl would probably V have got busy and finished the task. Afewfdays ago one of the Uniled States judges placed a fine of $29; l 240,000 on John D’. Rockefeller and the Standard Oil Company for alleg- ' ed crookedness in their dealings ‘ with railroad companies. The di- mensions of the fine imposed seem} absurd. Had the fine been a few 1 thousand dollars it might have been i paid, bul_twenty-nine millions, nev-ll er. To send a man to jail for 30 . days may seem reasonable; to make the sentence 1,000 years turns in into ridicule. Residents of Western Canada will not soon forget the cold season of 1907 when for weeks at a time thev were practically without, coal, and many people without iuel of any kind. Naturally these same people are a. little nervous when reports are spread that the prospects for a full supply of fuel are not bright for the coming cold season. If wood could be secured for fuel, the outlook would not be so dark but wood is also said to be scarce. Less wood was out last winter on account of the depth of the snow, besides there is a shortage in cars on the different railroads. And as strikes in coal mines at any time are among the possibilities it behuves not only residents in the North-West but also in our own Pro- vince, Ontario, to prepare for the cold season of 1908.
